THE Springfield Republican says that
some of the speakers at the Faneul Hall
Convention must have been studying
Nasby's dream of the Philadelphia Con-
vention. Their theory of the rebellion is
well set forth in the preamble of the plat
form which Nasty dreamed was adopted
at Philadelphia:

A TERRIBLE tornado recently swept over
the southern portion of Texas. tearing up
trees, ovcrturning buildings and doing
much promiscuous damage. In one local

were reported as having been hurled to
some distance by the force Of the wind;

GOLD IS KINo.-General Sherman, in
his recent speech at Dartmouth College
Commencement, while reviewing his own
life, add to a certain extent that Of the
Nation, said
1.-THE Mexican war soon broke out, and
I was sent to California, where in my
wanderings I saw the frst pieces Of gold
discovered, and watched its magical effect
upon the whole world. The discovery OF
that gold gave millions to America, and I
doubt much whether, il that gold had not
bsen discovered, the nation would have
managed to work out the problem OF
finance which the war Of rebellion had
raised, and preserved its pre,ant glorious
position. That gold gave Us wealth and
credit abroad, and q strength and dura-
bility which survived the war"
We have long held that but for the
mines and miners Of this country, the
Union could not have been preserved /;
and we are glad to find that one Of the
foremost heroes of the late war for the
suppression Of the rebellion, adds his
commanding testimony to the same effect.
In legislating for mines and miners, we
think that Congress should give heed to
this fact.

Tho philadelphia Convention.

We observe that several of vi ex-
changes express the opinion that the Phil
adelphia Convention will be composed Of
men who were so conservative during our
recent struggle as to oppose all attempts
TO nut down the rebellion. Possibly such
men may obtain seats in that body, and
attain power and control therein. II they
do, the movement is utterly futile, and
worse than useless. We cannot help re-
garding every attempt to put forward for
ner rebels, or even men whose patriotism
slumbered during the days Of our coun.
try's peril, as insane, and destructive Of
good order and safety to the Republic.
After Andrew Jackson triumphed over
the Nulli6ers of the South, it was full
twenty years before one Of them could
keep his head on the surface. Every time
one of those men came up. asking for
place aud position, the people promptly
thrust hlm under. Tho people Of this
country have no confidence in former
traitors. However sincere such men may
have been in their previous course, they
cannot now command the respect Of truly
loyal men, and every attempt OF theirs to
control or govern will be promptly frown-
ed down. The war is too recent to per-
NIT rebels to counsel concerning national
affairs. The graves Of our Union soldiers
are not sufficiently green to allow those
who slaughtered them to occupy front
seats in National Conventions. There is
loyalty enough left in the nation to gov
ern It. There is sufficient true patriotism
to control the national questions.
We earnestly and sincerely desire a
thorough and complete restoration Of the
Union. We ardently desire that fraternal
feeling may be the rule, and hate the ex-
csption. We wish the past forgotten.
But we sincerely believe it cannot be for
gotten by keeping in the front ranks such
men as we know were conspicuous In the
rebellion. They must not occupy the
dress circle while true Union men are
forced into the pit. They have no right
to claim the highest seats in the synagogue
while true patriots occupy humble foot
stools. By keeping these things in re-
membranes, the Convention at Philadel-
phia may DO q success, and result in great
national good. By losing sight Of these
truths, that meeting will be productive Of
great evils, joseph Herald, July 20.

TIVE editor of the Colorado Register

The editor of the Colorado Register
writes:
There is no doubt that Mr.. johnson has
nu, himself at the head Of the reactionary
party, and will use the utmost power OF
his position to thwart the policy Of the
men to whom he owes that position. We
went with him while he simply opposed
the elevation Of the military above the
civil power, the enfrsnchising Of the ne
groes by the General Government, and the
remanding Of the Southern States to the
Territorial condition. But Congress only
talked Of these extreme measures. When
it came to act It substantially adopted
Johnson's ground. But did he then EN-.
brace the opportunity Of uniting with the
men who elected him to Office in measures
Of reconstruction, the principles of which
he had again and again officially endorsed,
both in word and deedi No! He issued
q manifesto saying in effect that he would
assist the Southern States into the Union,
without conditions securing equal repre-
sentation and equal rights il they would
not ratify the proposed amendment guar
anteeing those and other important OBJ
jects.
The Philadelphia Convention proceed
ings will soon tell the unmistakable story
in regard to the Presidents position.

THE ENGLISH

hakAAoA ASS
on June 30th, but, unlike ours, the returns
had been completed, and a full statement
OF the receipts Of the Government for the
wear laid before the British public by July
Sd, but three days after the year had end
ed. Such speed as this in giving to q
great nation an official statement Of her
finances is highly commendable, and in
most fortunate contrast to the custom in
the United States, where it is always one
year. and, frequently, two or three years,
before the people have before them the
official details Of the business Of any fiscal
year. In England these financial exhibits
are made quarterly, and sometimes month
ly, and are of the greatest advantage to
the mercantile community, who, at the
end Of every quarter or month, can see
the range Of business for that period, and
direct their future business accordingly.
This commendable prompsness in furnish
ing financial statements to the public is
owing to the existence OF . Bureau Of
Statistics" in connection with the British
Government whose express duty it is to
furnish this kind Of information to the
public at the earliest possible time. The
bill to "protecs the revenue which re-
Gently passed, provides for the creation Of
a similar Bureau Of Statistics in this
country, for the purpose Of giving the
people early and accurate information Of
financial movements. II i. is conducted
with the promptness and accuracy char
acserissizing the English Bureau. It will
be q positive benefit to the country.
The revenues of the English Govern
men. for the fiscal year ending June Soth,
1866, were S33s. $50. $50, as compared
with S347, s4S,7 $50 for the previous year,
thus showing a decrease Of over Ss,o0o,-
900, raised by taxation. From customs
during the year ending June Soth, the
receipts were Slo6,si5,oOO; from internal
revenue, Sloo.SS5, 900; from sales Of
stamps, S47, 1885, 900 from real estate tax,
S2s,s 1856, 1000; from other direct taxes,
Sl7, los, 900 from the Post Office surplus,
S2l ,75o,0o0; from the crown lands,
Sl,6o6, 900 and from other miscellaneous
sources, Sl4,342, $50. The reduction OF
the English revenue for the fiscal year, as
compared with the previous one, was
mainly owing to the reduction Of the in
come tax from sixpence to fourpence in
the pound, the loss from that reduction
having been S3,6OO,OOo; and some
changes in the customs, SO that many
other items in reality show an increase for
the last fiscal year over the returns Of the
previous one. The annual product Of the
four-penny income tax is set down at
about S2s, 1855, 0oO. The English revenue
receipts for the last Escal year, as COM
pared with our own estimated receipts for
the same period, teach an instructive les
son. The American revenu are estimated
at 1852, 900, 900. whilst those of England
were S33s, $50, $50. The young country
has far ousssripped the older n even in
what was once though. to be England's
special prerogative-the right Of raising
large sums by taxation.

We have received parts I. and H.. OF

on the bill providing for q District and

Mr., Stewart-Mr. President, l should

mittee who have reported their amend
ments their reasons for wishing to change
the original bill in such important partic-
lars. should like to know the reasons,

for me to satisfy the honorable Senator
from Nevada that either one OF these
amendments ought to be adopted. AZ it

which is to amend the fourth section by

that any gentlemen who had in his early

ment. The section nov reads thus:
THAT the Circuit Court Of the United
States for the said District OF Nevada,
and the Judge thereof, shall possess the
same powers aud jurisdiction in said Dis
trict which are possessed by them in the
other Districts Of the Tenth Circuit"
I believe that the distinguished author

Court and Judge Of the other District
