PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL AsLEa1B1Y.

PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL AsLEMBLY.
In this body, now in session at
Memphis, on the 22d, the committee
appointed at the last session to con-
slider the relation Of the church to
the freedmen, submitted an elaborate
and lengthy report, which elected Il
protracted discussion, and was made
the official order of the day for 10
o'clock az m., tomorrow.
Among those who participated in
the discussion of the subject that day
were the Revs. DR.. Baird, Atkinson,
and Alexander, of Virginia, DR..
Adger, of South Carolina, and DR..
Palmer, of New Orleans.
Though unwilling to acknowledge
social equality, the disposition of
the church seems to be to receive the
freedmen enthusiastically as brothers
and co-laborers in one faith. A sepa-
rate religious organization was enact
ed but strongly opposed by leading
members of the assembly.
The Presbyterian General Assembly
at Memphis, on Saturday, received
the report Of the Committee on the
Union Of the two Churches. 1t re-
ported in favor of appointing dele
gate to the Assemblies OF the Cumber-
land and Associated Reform Church,
which was adopted. A discussion
took place iii regard to the removal
OF the Theological College at Colum-
bia, to some point in Alabama,
action upon which proposition was
postponed.

We regret to extract from the Ra-
leigh Progress, ofTuesday, the follow
ing notice. The Legislature of our
sister State, as our readers know, is
now in session:
Hon. Geo. w. Logan, ex-member
of the Confederate Congress and now
one of the commoners from Ruther-
ford and Polk counties, fired the first
gun in behalf of the Howard amend
ment yesterday. He introduced a
resolution in that body, 'that it is
the sense of this house that the How
ard amendment be adopted" We
understand he declared the provisions
of that measure more liberal than
those of the old constitution, taking
ground that the negroes, having
been freed, were already citizens
under the latter instrument, Which
prescribed that such class in one State
should enjoy all the immunities and
privileges of like persons in other
States. 1t was then contended that
the pending congressional PROPOSE
ton absolutely enlarged the power
of the separate States, as it permitted
their legislatures to abridge the rights
of negroes, and allow or disallow
them suffrage.
The speaker proved conclusively
his possession of fine logical powers,
but the people are not able to see the
matter through his spectacles. They
dispute The right of Congress to atfix
new conditions to the return of the
South to the Union, while unrepre-
sented III the National Legislature,
which were not at any time avowed
as objects of the war or necessarily
involved i'll its prosecution and ter.
minatlon. 1t is safe to say that,
whenever q vote is reached on the
subject, 1t will be rejected by two
thirds vote.

The Washington correspondent of
the Boston Advertiser writes.

The Washington correspondent of
the Boston AdrertiSe1' writes.
"Prominent Administration men
talk as if they seriously fear that an
attempt at;mpeachment will be made.
The talk of forcible resistance to such
a step, which was common before the
elections, has ceased. and their hope
now appears to be principslly in di-
versions which they deem confident
the Administration will be able to
make. A bill covering a disputed
point in regard to trials under i'm
parchment. has already been pre-
pared by a leading member of the
House. 1t provides that any officer,
while on trial under impeachment,
shall be saspendel from exercising
the functions of his office during trial.
Action upon this bill will probably
be taken, whatever course Congress
may pursue toward the President.
TO which Mr.. Raymond, of the New
York Times, member Of the House
of Representatives., replies:
1--WE attach very little Importance
to the speculations on this subject
which fill the columns of the press,
and no more, certainly, to the vindic-
tive diatribes of Gen. Butler and kin
dred demagogues. The impeachment
of "a President is very serious pro-
ceeding, and the House of Represen-
tatives is not Likely to enter upon it
rashly or under the impulse of pas
sicn. Men like Butler, who have
personal wrongs, real or fancied, to
avenge, or political purposes to ac-
comp!ish, may clamor till they are
hoarse for such proceedings, but
Congress will realize to the fullest
extent the responsibility which they
involve. The impeachment of d
President, under any circumstances,
would be most painful and disas-
trons process, and nothing but the
most imperative necessity, resting
on the clearest and most unmistak-
able state of facts, would induce any
lawyer to enter upon it"
From this comments of the Times
and other similar indications, we are
inclined to believe that the ultra
radicals will be defeated in their at
tempt to impeach the President.

COLUMBIA.
Saturday Morning, Dec. l. 1856.
a Heavily Taxed People.


The financial condition of the coun-
try is attracting much attention, and
the forthcoming report of the Secre-
tary of the Treasury is looked for
with universal interest The National
hteltigencer says that it Is reported
and believed that Mr.. Welles, the
Revenue Commissioner, who has in
vestigated the present system of tax
alton, will propose considerable re-
duction in the tariff and also in the
internal taxes; and says that it is we'll
known that the revenue from these
sources, greatly exceeds the amount
necessary for an economical admins
tration of the Government.
1t is estimated, as we learn from an
elaborate and carefully prepared
article in the Aatelligencs,', that the
revenue from all sources for the
present fiscal year, will be $3.50, 900, :
600. This immense burden Of taxa
tlon is too great to be long patiently
endured after it has become mari
testify unnecessary. The entire ex-
penditures Of the Government, for
the next year, cannot exceed $500,
Ooo,00J, AMI it appears that at the
utmost, the amount drawn from the
people by taxation, need not exceed
S350,Oo0,0O0.
With the reduction of taxes, two
causes for present high prices would
be partially removed. The taxes
would not form SO great portion of
the price of nearly every thing we
use, and would cease to be so great an
obstacle as they now are to produc-
ton; and thus the products of in
dustry would be increased and the
supplies Of all comm odities be more
abundant. We now labor under the
grievance of scant supplies, as we'll as
of prices largely increased by heavy
taxation.
The country is in a deplorable
condition, financially as well as
politically. Business is stagnant in
every section, paper money is drug
IN the commercial centres, where it
Is concentrated for want of employ
ment, and we of the South are suffer-
ing from the desolations of war, a
ruined labor system and want of real
capital. How the country is to be res
cued from her present evils, and
threatened future ruin, is beyond the
comprehension of the wisest man.
1t certainly will take greater states
manship and a higher financial
ability than has yet been developed,
amid all our troubles.

MAMMALIAN ABDIcATED.-As special
despatch to the New York World, of
Monday, contains the following an
nouncement, which seems to be
confirmed by other dispatches The
despatch is from New Orleans:
Maximillan has taken the decisive
step Of abdication The rupture be-
tween himself and the French Go
vernment being complete, he has left
Mexico in the hands of Bazaine and
Castelnau, the latter of whom is
understood to have full authority
from Napoleon to supersede the Mar
shal himself, if necessary. The late
Emperor left Vera Cruz on Thurs
day, and may be expected at Havana,
on his way to Europe, on Monday or
Tuesday next. The CONSERVATION Of
the Mexicans, on finding the ques-
tion of their future remitted abso-
lutely to negotiations between France
and the United States, is general
and confined to no party. 1 have the
best authority for stating that all the
preparations for embarking the
French troops have been summarily
suspended
