THE REBELLION.

In the emphatic language of the Pre-
sident-''The war continues The great
contest for the life of this nation is not
terminated. The year just closed has
been marked by decided progress and
we are nearer the end, not only by the
lapse of time, but by the material change
in the position of parties, and the aspect
of affairs. Our strength in all the ele-
ments of contest is increased, while that
of the rebellion is diminished. The mass
of our people are firm and determined,
while the adversary is becoming broken
and dispirited. We may yet have re-
verse in store for us /; but the eventual
triumph of the government, though it
may be delayed, cannot possibly be pre-
vented. A review of past events, so
familiar to the country, would not now
prove interesting or valuable; while those
of the future are so clearly foreshadow-
ed as to tax only our patience in await
ing their development.
The recent action of the people in sus-
taing, by so overwhelming a majority,
the administration and the cause of the
country, not only constitutes an element
of immense strength and value to our
selves, but it affirms serious and import
ant truths, which the people of the South
may we'll take into careful consideration.
Instead of voting this war ga failure"
and commanding cessation Of AoStilities,"
the people have declared it a success thus
far in its progress, and required its con
tinuance until the rebellion is suppressed,
and their government restored to its
original power and usefulness. They
have counted its cost and measured its
sacrifces-they have voted to themselves
heavy taxation, and i t necessity rquires
it, more calls upon them to fill up the
ranks of their armies-they have left |
their authorities no discretion; have for
hidden them to take any backward step,
but to press onward with energy and |
vigor, calling for and using all the re-
sources of the nation, until the rebel
power is broken, and the peace and unity
of the country is restored. They have
gone further and declared with clear and |
un mistakable emphasis, that with the
Of this rebellion must perish its
most potent element, as well as one of
it's exciting causes; and that when peace
sheds its blessings again upon our people,
his shall be, what God and our fathers
designed it,-ALAN OF HUMAN FREEDOM.

122.852
Total

Upon revision of our credits prior to
January 1st, 1864, under preceding
calls, the last-named amount was 1educ-
ed to 0,568; leaving our quota to be
furnished under the three calls 102, 1858
To fill deficiencies under the first calls,
a draft was ordered in May, which pro-
duced I'LL men; of whom $500 paid
commutation, amounting to 81, 1887, 900,
and the balance went into service in
person or by substitutes. For the same
purpose draft was ordered under the
last call, commencing in September
the deficiencies of the subdistricts amoun-
ting to {, 6,006. The draft is about clos
ed. 1t will more than fill the quota of
the State, for the reason that many of
the sub-districts had a surplus; but all
objected to having their credits given to
districts that were deficient. This excess
over the State quota amounted, on the
first day of December, to 1854 men,
The amount that will be derived from
supplementary drafts now pending can
not be safely estimated. 1t is under
stood between the State and Govern
ment authorities that our account of
credits is now definitely adjusted
There are undoubtedly other credits,
though not to very large amount,
which we should have received; but they
could not be presented in such a shape
as to procure them. The amount of cred
it's established and reclaimed during the
year is 20, l99.
In view of the possibility of still further
calls for troops, it is very essential that
some action should be taken in regard to
our enrolment. From the best estimates
an make, the lists upon which the
Government authorities are acting are
from twenty-five to forty thousand in ex-
cess of the actual number of men subject

In the thirteen yesrs of war With Napo-
leon, from 1903 to 1916 inclusive, Eng.
land spent $500 millions. Of this she re-
ceived two-thtrds by annual taxes and
one third by loans; there was no deprecia-
ton of the currency till 1910, and it never
deprecated more than 20 per cent. The
population of Great Britain was then 1s
millions, or about two-thirds our present
loyal population. During the last half of
the Napoleonic war the annual expendi-
lures of the British government were about
500 millions dollars, which in our present
currency would be about 1900 millions
Those figures are instructive to our finan-
ciers. We are richer and more produce
tive people than the English of that day
Can we not stand as heavy taxation as
they did 2
