AUsPtCIoUs sTeNs.

In ihe extracts lately published ia &his jour
nal, says tbs Richmond DisgafeL, fTom the
Richmond correspondence Of tie London
Borairg Herald, it was clearly shown that tie
Yankee draft had proved fsiluTe. The recent
debate in the United States Senate upon the
crazy propositionof = Senator from Wisconsin,
10 raise 8 million Of men for the deliversIee Of
the Yankee prisoners IN Richmond, elected tho
declaration from Senator WILSON that hundred
thousand might possibly be raised, bat that
these raw recruits would soon be disposed Of by
the veterans Of General LEE. Tie enormous
bountiss offered for volunteers, show the in
creased difficulties of raising mon for the Yam
kes srmiss. Gold is higher in New York than
ever before. If the Confederate Congress aud
the people Of the ConieieTsls States now do
their duty, the winter of our discomfort" IN
der tho blessings of Providence, will give place
10 glorious spring, and the backbone Of the
Yankee invasion viii be 6Hslly ard forever
broken Only lei Us be sr1s 10 ourselves, and
inspire the army IN cur front with the moral
effect OF harmonious and determined people,
and tho starry cross of the COnfedeiscy will
emerge from ihs clouds and darkness which
now surround it in blaze Of glory.
1. is uumsnlY. wicked, and lrsitoTous to de-
spair under such circumstances as now sur
round US. Let tho croskers and fault finders.
Tor the sake Of their country, consent to an Ar
nistice Of three months, and devote that inter
Fsl, before the opening Of tho campaign, to
working ctesrfully and harmoniously in the
common cause. Let the whole C0nfederacy
rise as one man, and strike such blow as q
great people ought TO strike for its liberties and
rights. Let the sirsgglers and absences eeme
back to ihsir gallant ard faithful brethren. Oae
grand effort more and We are free. With the
glorious triumph Of tho Confederate aIms,
which ne confidently anticipate in the coming
spring, the military and financial power Of Lir-
colnd0m will be crushed, and the independence
Of the Southern ConfedeTsey secured.

TAX RETURNS or SOUTH CARoLIEA.-Hon.
Jos ID Pope, chief collector of the war tax Of
this State. reports that the tax returns under
tho fifsi and tenth sections Of the act, and the
tax on registered business, is between Eve and
six millions Of dollars. No FINAL returns have
been received from soy district. From this Re
estimate that, if the tax on inGomes, salaries,
stock, etc realize tbs amount which is antici-
paled, the total sam collected in South Caro-
lima during the year 1863 will be not less than
eleven millions Of dollars. This estimate does
not include the immense smeuut paid on the
tax in kind. We have not the figures at band,
bat if memory serves rs rightly, our little State
pays moro Into the public treasury than the
groAi State Of Ynginis, and nearly as much 50
