"The investigation now going on at Fred.

There are owned in Connecticut not less
than sixty to eighty millions of Government
securities; and the great amount lof revenue
which they would yield, we're they to pay their
fair and honest share Of the burdens growing
out OF the war, must now be made up out Of
the hard earned savings Of the owners offarms
aud the scauty incomes Of those of moderate
means = Hartford Times.
So tits every where. We have heard
it stated that there are from two to three
millions Of the same sort of securities held
in Montgomery County Alone--all, of
course, exempt from taxation. This is
something for the farmers, mechanics and
laboring men of onr community to think
Of If the just amount OF tax on these
government bonds was paid into our
county treasury, no one can fail to estimate
for himself how far it would go to relieve
the people from the onerous burdens of
taxation which now oppress them. But
the Republicans say this shall not be done.
Their doctrine and practice is, that the
producing classes-not the men Of wealth
and capital who own these bonds-must
pay the heavy taxes necessary for the sup
port of the Government. There is nc
reason, no sense. no justice in this. 1t is
a system ofinjushee and oppression which
the ''Powers that be- have no right to
impose on tbs labor Of the country. 1t
must be reformed. The people-the great
mass Of them-have the power to apply
the remedy in a legal and legitimate way
They only need to understand the subject
fully. and they will not be long in reliev-
ing themselves from the burdens which
have been so unjustly imposed upon them.
We shall not fail to keep the subject be-
fore them.

The young man Ketchum. whose swindliug
operations have so excited the financial word
during the sessions Of the National Demo-
cratic Convention, last August, was present
as leading friend of Mcclellan, He kept
open house at one of the leading hotels 10
Chicago, aud scattered bis money like a
Prince, and made big spurge generally
JourHdL r. -...t .t' 30
The New York World, paper pub
lished in the city were Ketchum's swind-
ling operations occurred, gives a very
different version of the story. 1t says:
"The Ketchums, father and son, were prom.
inent members OF the Loyal League, an or.
ganizstion which branded as malcontents and
traitors all who raised voice against the
WAS eiulness Of the Executive and the prodi-
gslity Of the national treasury The green.
backs they multiplied bave suffocated. them -
This statement is no doubt correct. The
World also says
"The father OF The latest defaulter is Nor.
rls Ketchum, who is generally regarded as the
New York adviser of Secretary Chase, the
attributed father OF the greenbacks, but their
real progenitor wss the New York capitalist
dis policy was a mistake, VIC may grant, and
not private design, but its issue is no less
personal and appalling; his old established
house is oAe of the first 10 be crushed; his son
among the foremost to example the paper
contsgion Whom the gods wish to destroy
they first make mad"
MIR. Chase, during his connection with
the Treasury Department, was singularly
unfortunate in the selection of his financial
agents and advisers. The Cincinnati En-
quirer says "The New York Custom
House, under Mr.. Barry, Chase's Col.
lector, turned out whole host OF defaul-
ters and swindlers. A friend of Mr.. Chase
said to Us the other day that the Secretary
seemed to have the misfortune to make
every rascal in the Union his friend and
then allow himselfto be imposed upon by
them"
We may add, that it is not unlikely
that "the young man Ketchum" was at
Chicago, "slashing around" generally.
The Chicago Convention saw many "out-
siders" in attendance, pretending to de-
mocratic faith, doubtless delegates from
Loyal Leagues" and otner kindred asso.
