Tbs FOURTH AND GENERAL GRANT AT Sara
ToGA.--We learn that the arrangements for the
reunion ofthe leading officers of the Army Of the
Tennessee-at the head of whom stands Lieu
tenant General Grant-at Saratoga ON indie
pendence Day have been completed ban
quet will be given in the Union Hotel in honor
of these, among the great "coming men" of the
next half century, to be followed by military
ball in Leland's now Opera House. That both
these affairs will be unusually splendid there
is the assurance of the former efforts of.the COM
mittee of arrangements. Major Generals 10
Hooker; Logan, Frank Blair, Oglesby, Kilpat-
rick Lew Wallace, with the staffs of Grant and
Sherman, including, of course, those familiar
names, General Rawlins and Colonel Hiyer
and General J. y. Webster-historic and heroic
names, all of them--will be present. Governor
Fcnton and staff leave Albany to join in the
banquet and ball, liter the presentation of State
colors at Albany on the morning of the Fourth.
This will be a magnificent reunion of the tried
soldiers Of the valiant Army of the.Tennessee;
and much good u the country at large may re-
suit tbercfrom. The coming Fouixh will be
gloriously celebrated at Saratoga
A LITTLE NCoNS1srENT.--Th London Times
gives advice to tho Fenians, and Of course it is
of the same disinterested character as the ad-
vice chat usually passes between those who
hate OF fear each, other. 1t Tells them to give
up their object; because every Fenian landed
in ireland, joined to every one ofhative growth,
will not make one-ffth the force that England
can put in the field against them In this tho
Times probably forgcts the statement it made
of England's military power some months aga
Then it was advising some oae else; for 1t lis
tremendous, on advice. II was advising the
Canadians keep out of arrow, as it advises
the Fenians now; and it informed them that
they m, It not count upon England, since Ehg-
land had not the power to- Sustain single
sampaignor fight single battle on Grants
principles. Now the Fenians, there is abun-
dant reason to bellows, cam muster force
| larger than any army that ever fought under
Grant, and thus the ststenenis of the Tszaes are

| A. NEW VIEW OF INTERNAL TAxArios.-Just
as Mr.. Jay Cooke recently employed Tribune
| Bohemian to prove that the nationardebt is o.
national blessing, 80 ORE Of the intsrnal reve-
nue. detectives has now employed a4Bohemian
on die Times to eulogiz. the revenue assessors
and collectors. To the Times of yesterday he
eadeavors to demonstrate that tie people are
all cheats, perjurers and swindless and that the
revenue officials. are the only good and true
men among US. This Is decidedly novel view
of the case. We have been accustomed ts,liear
the people accuse officials oiftoorruptioa, but
here are the officials accusing all the people Of
cheating the government. This is sIicy de-
| yelopment &C the taxation system.
PAYING 0rF THE NATIONAL DEpT-CUgrAn-
MENT or TxryssEs--Or- cetemporaries need
not suppose Dat we have given up tho project
in relation W the na;icnal debt, &C that we
shall csaas 10 urge upsn the government the
presentation to Congrsss Vt some plan for the
comnsutation of taxes But while we let thai
idea rest at present, we would urge upon tho
government the reduction of the national CT

II costs twenty-five per cent 10 collect the taxes
and Congress must see to the stoppage Of i'm

DERBY ON SHrs-Lord Derby objects to tn
/ Presidents declaration that ships which violat
our law Ia certain way shall be treated az
pirates. He considers Il outrageous, and no
to be endured by the British lion. II has beer
seen that England cannot regulate what snip
shall pass out of her own ports, and DerD!
thinks /. hard she should not be permitted Y
decide what ships should pass into ours.
would be pity that England should lose
point anywhere for want of a little impudence
