The Itednction of Taxation Necessary
to Increased l'rodnction.
Secretary McCi'lmk )i, in Lis late letter, urges
upou public attention the truth that the coun
try needs more production. Thia all will agree
to ; but the true question is, how to secure an
increase of production f And, unfortunately,
when we come to discuss this question, we find
the financial plans and theories of the Secre
tary standing solidly athwart the path of na
tional progress and prosperity. The Secretary
is in favor pf paying off the national debt by
the generation that contracted it. This can
only be done by a rate of taxation which is ex
cessive, and which the industry of the country
cannot bear. The prostration of business pur
suits and the stagnation of productive indus
try which we witness, are due to the fact that
the burden of municipal, State, and national
taxation is too great. The great stimulus to
production is the hope of reward, the irofa
which a man reasonably expects to reap from
Ida industry or his capital, or from both. We
gee this illustrated every day iu the ordinary
Workings of the social machine. The moment
any pursuit is supposed to yield excessive
rewards, thousands are attracted to it, and
production is stimulated until the rate of
profit is reduced to the normal standard. On
the other hand, when it is found that any
branch of business persistently fails to return
a fair profit to those engaged in it, it gradually
declines and production ceases.
Now the difficulty with production is that,
under Mr. McCulloch's plan of paying oil' the
publio debt in a lew years, tne taxes are so
heavy that they eat up almost the entire
margin offprofits. As a consequence, industry
languishes, production falls off, men withdraw
their capital from manufacturing pursuits and
crowd into trade and speculation, and the
whole country feels the depression. It is
idle, under such circumstances, to suppose
that the wheels of production can be set in
motion by hortatory appeals, however excel
lent or well intended. It is vain to tell the
manufacturer that he must produce more,
when he finds that he reaps no profit from
what he does produce. Profit, not good advict',
ie what stimulates production.
Another effect of our excessive taxation is
high prices. Every producer seeks to make
up for his taxes by adding them to the price of
his wares. The tax becomes a part of the
cost of production as truly a3 the labor. Mr.
McCulloch ascribes high prices to an assumed
redundancy of the currency; but it may well
be doubted whether this is not purely a fiction
of his imagination. It is doubtful whether
we have a single dollar more of circulation
mow than the necessities of the people require.
The most careful estimates make the total
amount of currency now in circulation little if
any in excess of the amount in circulation at
the breaking out of the war. Moreover, a
careful examination of statistics reveals the
fact that wide fluctuations in the currenoy
may occur without any corresponding dis
turbance in prices; indeed, the further
fact that an increase in circulation
may be followed by a decrease in
prices, and vice versa. For instance, the average
ooBt of living, as determined by the prices of
fifteen of the chief necessaries of life, such as
flour, meat, pork, beef, sugar, wool, leather,
coal, coffee, etc, has been determined for a
long series of years. The volume of the cur
renoy has also been determined from year to
year, for a long time. Now it is found that
from 1854 to 185G the volume of the currency
fell off seventeen millions of dollars, while the
cost of living increased six per cent. From
18C8 to 1859 the currency rose thirty -eight
millions, while the cost of living decreased three
per cent. From 1861 to 18G2 the curreuoy fell
Off nlnety.flve millions, while the cost of living
increased seven per cent. We might multiply
facts of this kind, but we have alrealy ad
duced sufficient to show that something be
sides fluctuations in the" ourrency must be the
cause of change in prices. .
liut now we find another fact which shows
,. how intimate is the relation between taxation
apd the inorease of prices. During our late
terrible eivil war there was no unusual in
crease of prices until the home taxes were
levied. The cost of living, as determined
above, in 18CJ, was but slightly above the
average for the thirty-nine years before, aud
was much less than for several years of that
term. Yet at that time we were maintaining
an army ef a million of soldiers in the field,
and had already run the national debt up to
two thousand millions of dollars. But the
moment internal taxation was imposed, that
moment prices began to mount upwards. The
life-blood of labor, trade, and commerce, began
to be drawn, capital began to be diverted from
production to non -production, and the effect
HIE DAILY
at once became , visible. For a while the
country was able to stand it, but now, like a
patient that has been bled nearly to death, it
gives signs of fatal oxhanstion.
The true remedy for our difficulties is to
discard the fanciful theories of Secretary
McCulloch, to abandon the absurd idea of
paving off the national dt bt at the rate of fifty
millions per year, and to reduce taxation to
the lowest possible limit. The currency needs
no tinkering. Every step towards reducing
it has been attended by disaster. The constant
iteration of the doctrine of reduction by the
Secretary has been a perpotual panic-breeder,
and has already entailed great los upon our
people. The currency is sound, and even if
in temporary excess, will soon be reduced to
its normal proportions by the natural growth
of the country. What we want is a reduction
of taxes, aud a more faithful administration of
the revenue service. Taxation is excessive,
and the revenue service is terribly demoral
ized; and for both of those facts Secretary
McCulloch is in good part responsible. He
lias prostituted the revenue service to parti
san ends,-and the people have paid tho penalty
in being fleeced by dishonest officials in league
with those who have reduced frauds upon the
revenue to a perfect system.
In Memory of the Late Jacob Jonnson.
IUlkiou, N. C, desirous of rivalling the cour
tesy of the nobleman whose name it bears, has
conceived the original idea of securing the
good-will of the President by erecting a monu
ment to the memory of his father. Now, the
reason why the town of ltaleigh has preemi
nent claims to the honor of a statue to the
lamented Jacob Johnson, rests in the fact that
the earliest years of the llonorablo Andrew
were spent within its limits. Finding, as
Mayor lieywood did, that the possession of
Johnson II rested with Tennessee, he adopted
the fashion of the Middle Ages, and proceeded
to glorify the son by glorifying the father. It
was an ancient Itoman custom to praise a ple
beian emperor by discovering unbounded vir
tues in his ancestors, aud, by erecting pillars
to their memory, cater to the Emperor's de
sire to be the descendant of an illustrious lino.
Maximin, Oallus and Cams thus provided
themselves with distinguished grandfathers ;
and why should not the custom continue iu
force to-day ? it is certainly a very harmless
amusement for a ruler. Be that as it may,
the memory of Jacob Johnson is destined to
live in cold marble, and his son is to be present
at the interesting occasion of the unrobing of
the statue. Just now the dedication of monu
ments is fashionable. The noble form of Henry
Clay has been elevated on a pedestal ; and why
should not a like honor be accorded to his
rival statesman, the citizen of Raleigh ? We
suppose that the cause of the erection of this
testimonial is the inherent virtues of the late
Mr. Johnson. But then it seems peculiar that
we never heard of any of his great deeds, or
that his life was not appreciated until his son
became President of the United States. If Mr.
Jacob Johnson was an honest, hard-working
man, he deserves a statue; but if it is accorded
him Vecause he is the father of Mr. Andrew
Johnson, we think it a waste of raw material.
Why, George Washington's father has no
monument nor Adams', Webster's, Clay's, or
Lincoln's, yet the President is greater than
these, and must have a pedestal for his an
cestor. Can it be that they can stand on their
own merits, and need no glorification of others
to secure for them the appreciation of the
nation ?
The only reminiscence set forth by Mayor
Hey wood that the good people of Raleigh have
of Mr. Andrew Johnson, consists in his being
in the habit, during his youthful days, "0
engaging in athletio sports" no early pro
mise of coming greatness to enable his fellow
townsmen to detect the embryo "tribune of the
people." Nothing is remembered by the "old
men" of Raleigh except that he whose father
they would delight to honor was an athlete
in his youth, and it must be gratifying to ob
serve that his acrobatio power has been re
tained in politics as well as in physical sport.
But Mr. Johnson, accompanied by Mr. Seward
and his private secretaries, has started for
Raleigh, and will doubtless 6peak on
the way. The trumpet-toned eloquence which
electrified the North will arouse the South,
and as Mr. Wilson and Judge Kelley pass the
Presidential party on their way home, they
can feel that they have left an orator worthy
to act as their successors, and likely to con
vert as many Rebels to Republicanism as all
their tour had accomplished. The cause of
the Republican party of the South is in good
hands. If the President will but extend his
tour, we can recall our missionaries. As it is,
we think that the President must have been
rather annoyed at this sudden desire to honor
Lis father's memory, and must have asked
with Hamlet:
"Oh, answer me !
Let me not burst In Uuorance, but toll
Why thy canonized bones, hearsed iu death,
Have burst their cerements! "
No Arbithatiox. The South American Re
publics have rejected the oiler of the United
States to act as a mediator, aud have declined
to submit the question at issue to a congress,
to meet at Washington. The plan proposed by
the United States was that a convention bo
held, over which an officer named by tho
President of the United States should preside.
Should no decision be arrived at by the con
tending forces, then the President was to name
an arbitrator, whose decision should be final.
The Republics preferred to continue the war,
until, like the celebrated cats found iu Kil
kenny, they have eaten each other up. De

EVENING TELEGRAPH
, The Corf el Murder?. . . .
We have from time to time published tho pro- '
ceedings of the trial of Bridget Dergan for the
murder of Mrs. Coiiell. Tho circumstances
of the case are still too fresh in the publio
mind to need repetition. Mrs. Coriell was
murdered one night when her servant was iu
the Louse. The servant confesses to being
present at the murder, but denie3 having
aided it, and was prevented fioin raising the
alarm by fear of personal danger. That is
herstoiy but as she contradicts herself on a
dozen minor points, its truth is doubtful.
The jury, after twenty minutes' deliberation,
brought in a verdict of guilty of murder in
the first degree. If it were in Pennsylvania,
we should fear a pardon, as the sentimental
humanity of many of our citizens would favor
her escape because she is a woman. The
seouiity of families from the brutal crimes of
domeFtics demands that a special example be
made of this woman tigress, and we have no
doubt that the stem sentence of the Court
will be fully carried c ut in New Jersey. Our
sister State is not noted for erriDg on the side
of lenity.

Denth of Mr. Ernest C. Wallace.
It is with extreme sorrow Mint we are called
upon to announce tlu death of Mr. Ernest (J.

For thirteen years be bus assisted in the editing
of our contemporary. He was in his thirty-fifth
year when lie fell a victim to that most insidious
of diseases consumption.
Mr. Wallace was a man of great ability. Pre
vented by Ibe gradual progress of disease from
exerting that energy which is necessary to a
permanent reputation as a genius, ho pos
sessed a talent wbicb, bad his physical equalled
his mental powers, would have placed him In
the foremost rank of writers. He possessed
great versatility, being able to write anytbing
from a report to an editorial.
Lacking that assumption which secures un
dtsei ved credit, Mr. Wallace never received the
great appreciation of his talents. Yot sickness
and modesty could not hide from those with
whom be came in contact his more than ordi

genial, and eminently soclafln his qualities. He
loaves a host of frie nds.
Of a klnd,"large heart, with a clear head, and
power of conversation which made his pre

In the ranks of the editorial fraternity which
will long be felt. Since the organization of the
