THE CONFERENCE OF NEXT THURSDAY.
We published yesterday circular which has
been sent by few gentlemen of high charac-
ter and position to several hundred others
who have been identified with the movement
of opposition to the reelection of Gen. Grant
which eliminated at Cincinnati in the nomi-
nation of Messrs. Greeley and Brown. 1t in
vites the persons to whom it is sent to con-
ference in New-York on the Goth of this
month for the purpose of securing concert of
action among all the elements of opposition
to Gen. Grant.
There are some who regard this movement
as hostile to the Cincinnati ticket. We decline
to so regard it, We prefer to consider it as
in good faith what it purports to be, confer
ence between the few who are dissatisfied with
that ticket and the many who nominated and
cordially support it, to determine what is the
best and most practicable course now open
to the Liberal party, to prevent the
disaster of the election of Gen. Grant.
If the greater portion come together with
these motives, and we have no reason to
doubt that this will be the case, nothing but
good can result from such conference. OF
course in such meeting the per-
sonal friends and partisans of Mr..
Greeley would have no place. Neither
would the call appear to include those
who, having joined the Liberal movement and
sustained it at Cincinnati up to the point
where their individual preferences were disap-
pointed in the nominations have since re-
nounced their opposition to Gen. Grant and
have declared in favor of his reelection
against the candidate of the Liberals. There
could be no possible agreement between
people who have, on either side, assumed so
definite and positive an attitude.
While we regard with the greatest respect
the opinions and even the prejudices of those
who have not yet been able to subscribe cor
daily to the platform and the ticket which
were adopted at Cincinnati, it is impossible
for us TO see any other way open to prevent
the election of Gen. Grant. AS State after
State holds its Convention, no sign appears
of the discomfort Of which we hear so much in
few newspapers. The unanimity and cordial
feeling with which the entire Democratic party
accepts this opportunity of progress and re-
generation, betOkens revolution the most i'm
portant and most beneficial that the history of
our politics has ever shown. II is too late to
stem this steady and powerful current. We
confidently expect that the coming con-
ference will recognize this evident fact.
In the political as well as in the moral world,
we are held responsible only for what we can
do. We believe, as all the gentlemen signing
this circular believe, that the election Of Gen.

cUdNGES IN INTERNAL TAXES.

We present this morning, on the fourth
page (second of the extra sheet, a convenient
and compact summary of the more important
changes in the rates of internal revenue taxes
made in the closing hours of the last session
of Congress. As is already known, the most
important changes are in the taxes on spirits
and tobacco.
The tax on all kinds of distilled spirits IS
raised to 20 cents per proof gallon. The rev.
enue from this source last year was S3l, ,l5O,OOO,
exclusive Of the minor taxes on dlstlliers,
liquor dealers, &c. In dealing with tobacco
Congress followed pretty closely the recon-
mendations of Commissioner Douglass Under
the old law tax of 80 cents per pound was
imposed on all chewing tobacco and on all
smoking tobacco from which any portion OF
the stems had been removed. On other KINDS
of smoking tobacco the tax was 10 cents per
pound. 1t was found that almost all smoking
tobacco was brought under the second class
Nevertheless, taking chewing and smoking TO-
bacco together, about twO-thirds of the whole
quantity taxed paid the higher rate. The re-
ductOn by the present law of the tax TO the
uniform rate of 20 cents per pound, while IL
will materially diminish the revenue, is yet
open to the objection that it increases by 20
per cent the tax on that species OF
smoking tobacco which is mostly con-
sumed by the poorer classes. The en-
tire revenue from chewing and smoking
tobacco last year was S25,56OOOO, and from
cigars, S6,59O,OOO. Another change in the to-
bacco taxes which has been objected to Is the
license fee of $500 hereafter to be required OF
retail dealers in leaf tobacco. This heavy line
was recommended by the Commissioner, on the
ground that considerable quantities OF leaf
tabacco were sold for consumption without the
payment of any tax. The law, as now amend
ed, is virtual prohibition of the retail traffic
in leaf tobacco, for in addition to the license fee
of $500 there is required payment Of 90 cents
on each and every dollar of all sales in ex-
cess of $1,000.
After the 1st of Jul, there is to be no
tax on Illuminating gas. After the 1st OF
January, 1873, the number of districts for
the assessment and collection of internal
taxes is to be reduced to 30. This is giving
the superfuous officials longer lease OF life
than is necessary for purposes other than
those purely personal and poltical but we do
not specially complain. Even on those terms
we are glad to be rid of them.

RgETORJCAL GEyERALITTES.

Great are gas and gabble. There is one
thing certain-the gentlemen who are now
making the preliminary denomination, or we
may say, Succession speeches, seem to be
rather harder on their lungs than on their
brains and to have an absolutely unlimited
faith in the formulas which the Administration
has prepared and published for those who love
its pots of pap and of other prOvender. 1t Is
useless and insufficient to talk of the smlll-
tude of pair of peas, for they are widely
dissimilar in comparison with brace
of pro-Presidential harangues. When an
Administration orator gets upon his pins for n
good, rousing, convincing and confirming
campaign speech, we know perfectly well be-
forehand what the galvanized enthusiast will
say. Here was q meeting last Wednesday
night over in Williamsburgh which was neither
very great nor very small, but which will serve
as O specimen of denomination meetings In
general There was speech by General
and speech by Colonel, and it would have
been all the same if the COlonels speech had
been made by the General, and if the Cen
erals speech had been made by the Colonel
Let us see
First comes the General, and he is nothing
about "the fiery days of the Rebellion" when
" the pillars of the Republic were shaking;"
about :" the years of gloom and terror" about
" the spirit of treason" about " the soldiers
grave.n And then comes the Colonel, and
he has great deal to say about Fort Don
" elson,n and Shiloh" and "Vicksburg," and
d" SPLENDID victories" and Strategy" and
" Union banners" and the long and bloody
&" "struggle,n and "the decisive triumph" for
which the Lord be thanked, not forgetting to
thank also the Lieutenant-General, and the
Major Generals, and the Brigadiers, and all
under them in authority The duet
la miIitaire being over, what could more
appropriately follow than resolution IN
the same style of the tented feld2-a Tes0lu-
ton in which all those who, in the exercise OF
their unquestionable political right intend to
vote for somebody save the same General
President, are compared to the Secession
lists in armsl 1t is high treason then, IL
seems, for any man to refuse to lend
his nose to the Administration thumb
and fngerI Fort Lafayette still stands, but
we hope that martial law is not still in sufli-
cient force to warrant the consignment to that
keep, of freemen guilty of voting against
Commander-in- Chief! Who knows, when the
Williamsburgh successionists are so good as TO
assure all Liberals that il they will surrender"
for that is the very word used-if they viii
surrender and "take their seats in the
family CIRCLE then " all will be forgiven"
This is kind indeed! A Colonel and General

that notable speech of Mr.. ROuker, where the

hope of a triumph which should bring back
the man of Chiselhurst to Paris, and, after
three hours of speaking, sat down and mopped
his brow, in the consciousness of a perfect
defeat. Mr.. ROuher's great successes in the

New life has been gwen to the trades
"strikes" by the demonstration of the iron

their accession is accounted notable one
