The commercial interests of New
York and other eastern cities are be-
ing brought to bear upon the Admins
tration to induce more leniency to the
rebels of the South than patriotism
and the safety of the nation will admit.
In opposition to this eastern influence,
let the great West stand up for the
Government and infuse into the admin
istration Of President Johnson all the
"backboneism" that may be needful
to punish treason and place the nation
under the control of ioyal men, and 10y
al men only. New York merchants,
to-day, in one breath condemn south
ern rashness and apologize for north
ern successes. They are on the scent
for southern trade. The money-chan.
gers Of today are of the same eharac-
ter that they were in the days of Jesus
Christ. They are ready to sacrifice
their savior for o few pieces of silver

James G. Johnson, one Of the
wealthiest men in the South. died on
the IL ult. at his home near Edenton,
in North Carolina. He disinherited all
his relatives because they left him and
identified themselves with the rebel
cause. His property, amounting to
many millions of dollars, he left to a
few personal friends. His immense
possessions, on the Roanoke river,
comprise the richest lands in the coun-
try. At the outbreak of the rebellion,
he told his slaves, numbering nearly
a thousand, that the war would make
them free, and that they could remain
with him or go where they pleased.
He was personal friend of Henry
Clay, whose Indebtedness, which
amounted to over thirty thousand dol
lars, Mr.. Johnson is said to have can
celed without Mr.. Clay's knowledge,
who was never able to ascertain who
his benefactor was. He was about
eighty years of age when he died, and
was a devoted Union man up to the
hour of his death.

:" Footloss Soldiers"

We are under obligations to oul
friend B. f. Wright, Of New York
City, for several photographs OF MAIN
ed and emaciated soldiers, now in the
hospital on David's Island, near New
York, and recently from the Anderson
vile and other rebel prisons of the
South. On the backs of these photo
graphs are affidavits of the poor SOL
diers represented in the pictures. One,
Calvin Bates, of the Goth Maine volun-
teers, says che was formerly a well
and healthy man-that he and his fell
low prisoners were unprovided with
any shelter from the inclemency of the
weather, and were compelled to bur-
row in the ground. Owing to expo
sure his feet decayed, and both were
cut off at the ankle with scissors"
Another soldier in similar condition,
j. w. January of the Gath Illinois Cav
airy, testifies that "shortly after he
was put in the stockade at Florence,
S. c., he saw one of his fellow prison
ers catch and eat a snake for want OF
better food"
Well does Mr.. Wright remark: "f
you have any one amo:g you who
boasts of southern chivalry, any one
who thinks Gen. Lee is too good, too
nice man, to stretch hemp-that he
and petticoat jeff are justifable for
Indignantly starving and freezing
Union soldicrs-don't show them these
pictures it may make them feel bad"

Capital VS.. Labor.

A good and wise government, says
contemporary, is that which NEEDLES with
the natural rights of its people as little us
possible, The large body of a nation are
the producers they number at least ysile
tcnihS Of the oulire population, and as
these nine -tcutLS create the wealth Of The
entire country, it is but just that this
wealth should be properly disn ibuted 49,
lhe laws of nation should respect the
rights of the producers, and not be made
to serve solely the purposes Of the capital,
i>ts or non producers, az in the case when
ever the interest question is discussed in
legislative bodies. Look at the state of
things to-day, and see the result of dis,
honest legislation in Congress. The great
war debt, as it now stands, (but which
will be nearly double when the whole
comes to be summed up,) draws the enor-
nous sum of By ONE HUNDRED &
FIFTY-FIYE MILLIONS Pr year
but while the poor man has to work to pay
this interest, the rich man, who invests
his surplus in the debt is not required to
pay dollar from hi, income from that
source towards tue sum total of this high
interest for Congress says to him, "if you
will take portion ol lhc great war debt,
your income from that source shall not bo
touchod-the taxes on the poor man's
earnings shall be large enough to avoid
the necessity of your parting with any
portion of the large interest you receive
from the public bonds j. and 50 the rich
bond holders escapes the general taxation
for National, State, County, School and
Municipal purposes. Now, what is the
feet of this unfair, unequal and corrupt
legislation! II results in this : that the
immense public debt, finally amounting to
probably ssy- FIVE THOUSAND MIL
LIONS, more than one.third the wealth
OF the country at this time, falls upon only
two thirds OF tho property the other
third escapes entirely. In this way labor
carries not only It's own proportion OF tax
es, but that OF the rich drones, also, as far
as tho war debt is concerned. This is
the injury which capital inhicts upon la
Dor, through dishonest legislation and it is
this affliction under which the masses Of
the people are now wrlthing, and which if
not soon checked, will eventually grind
them into the dust
We are opposed to reputation of the
debt in any shape or form. Tho faith OF
the Nation is pledged for its payment and
that pledge must be redeemed uuder any
and al circumstances. But We shall con-
tinuo to insist upon equality of taxation to
meet our National obligations, We want
every man is contribute according to his
wealth-thc bondholders of the Govern
meRt as we'll as the farmer, mechanic, or
laboring man, The blessings Of govern
ment, like the dews Of heaven, fall alike
upon rich and poor, and SO should its
burthens. There should be no antagon'
ism between capital and labor They
should 60 hand in hand in joint effort tc
sustain the credit Of the country, aud ben.
