Whiskey Triumphant.

Ii is as we feared it would be- Whiskey has
triumphed at Washington. The i" immense
pressure to say nothing OF samples in the
original packages, has proved too much for the
Treasury. The House has backed down from
It's determination to tax liquors on hand twenty
cents gallon, which they at first, very much
to their credit, proposed, and the liquor dealers
can now put into their pockets three or four
millions OF dollars, which ought to have gone
into tho national exchequer. This action is
little less than an actual robbing Of the treasu-
ry; 1t is certainly most partial and unjust
Legislation 1t is most manifest fayorltism
which nothing but heavy monied interest
could have brought Congress to exhibit. 1t is
notorious that these whiskey dealers have been
buying up immense quantities Of this liquor in
anticipation that Congress would do Just what
It has at last done With them it has been
simply speculation and through the plancy
OF Congress they will now reap the fruits Of
their sagacity. The Vermont members did not
vote at all upon the question
We have 10 doubt that many members Of
Congress have voted honestly to exempt the
whlskey ON hand from this tax. by listening to
speclous arguments from the liquor interest
They have been persuaded doubtless that moth.
ing already manufactured ought to be taxed
They think they have voted with respect to
great principle, that their legislation might not
be retrospective. But they do not remember
this always The original tax bill, approved
July |, 1862 provided that an income tax
should be assessed for the whole Of that year.
and it has been so assessed, thus taxing income
On ham, as well as income to be realized
lod thee can be no more injustice in taxing
liquors on hand than in taxing income on hand.
The immense pressure" however, has un.
loubteily made the difference in the view Con-
,ress has taken respecting whiskey tax, and
IN income tax, Great is whiskey.

jeff Davis Proclamation,

We print this week jeff Davis Pre- camatlon to
bis army, eougtatulatng he soldiers, the Conied-
eraoy, and everybody but the Yankees, on the
fact that the rebel army has re-enisted. Davis
credits this all to the patriotism Of he army which
IS rather stupendous assumption for even the
rebel president to make II is we'll known that
the rebel conception makes no exception in ia.
vor Of soldiers, compelling those in the army as
well an those out TO bear arms to uphold treason.
The army were thus leit with the not difficult
choice of re.enlistng or being conscrpted for the
war; aud as i is obvious that they had no escape
from The army except by openly rebelling against
the authority at Richmond, their voluntary .
patriotism amounts to nothing more than dec
araliou that they are not yetready to rebe against
rebellion.
DAVIS, however, may well be thankful, and issue a
coDgratulatory order to the soldiers whose tayo-
nets are the only defence Of treason and we
ought not to be nice in crticising the absolute
truthlulness Of all bis assertions II the veterans
of bis army had not re-enlisted, his conederacy
world have tumbled to pieces of its own weak
ness; as it is orlY through the force of bis army
already in the field that he can enforce bis reeut-
less conscription ofthose who have noty been in
the service 1t ISN'T singular, therefore, that lie
attempts in vain to adequately express bis emo.
tions at this narrow escape from immediate des.
truetion, and indglges in the rebound from des-
pair to hope, in pleasant fetons, and rose colored
visions Of "assured success Ii bis army had
failed him in this crisis Of his fortunes be would
have been compelled at once to close up business,
and to seek refuge, il he could have escaped the
perils Of the blockade, in the bosom Of his friend
the Pope.
And the nct that Davis viii have a large and
veteran urmy with which TO open the Spring cam
paign, We trust will not be lost sight oil by Con-
gress aud the executive authorities at Washing
ton. From first to last, the rebel army has been
the only bulwirk Of leasoni whatever has weak,
ened that army, hasweakeneG the rebellionj what.
ever has strengthened that army has strength
ened the rebellion, Il is against that army now
that the whole energies of The nation should be
directed. Political schemes, whether in the form
Of President making, or reconstruction, can wait,
at least few weeks until means have been ma.
tured to put our armies in q state of efficiency
which shall make the Spring campaign indeed
short. sharp and decisive.
