o. TAXATION, Quite rumpus was raised
in the Rump at Washington, the other day,
by a loyai member named Washburne, of
Indiana, who offered resolution declaring
" that the burthen of the Government
" should be borne equally, that taxation
" should be in proportion to property that
" exemption Of any material portion of the
" wealth Of the country from its due pro-
"portion Of taxation is wrong, unjust,
"and should be avoided, and that to carry
" out these views, the rightto tax the bonds
of Government should be given in any fu-
:" ture system of funding bonds" The res
olution was laid over underthe rules, and we
presume it is the last we will hear of it, un.
less some friend of the peoploHalls It up. =
We imagine we can hear every loyalist ours
ing Washburne and rehearsing his 7-3o per
cent. soliloquy. .F ''- 2. -'

until November q and the nation has reason
to be thankful for this respite from agitation
and partizan nacitement The action of
that body during the late session was pre-
eminently sectional, selfish end mischievous.
Not.one measure calculated to quiet the
mtion,aid business men, and light the future
with hope, was suggested or urged by the
dominant party. All their efforts were Of
partisan character, all their appeals TO pas
sion apd prejudice. The action Of the
Ihirty-ninth Congress with reference to re-

despotic as it was rendered more objection
