Joalice to the Defender of the Gover
meal and Preservers of the L'nioa.
Hon. M. S. Quay, of Beaver county,
has introduced a bill in the House, which
provides for an at of justice to the de
fenders of the Government that cannot
fait to command the support of every just
man in the Commonwealth. In plain
trrms, it provides for exempting every of
ficer and private honorably mustered out
of the service of the United States, since
September 1st, 1861, Irom payment of
taxes levied to liquidate debts incurred
by the payment of military hounties.The
money borrowed to pay bounties, was dis
bursed to save entire communities from
the draft, Those who were exempt from
service in the army by filling np the quo
taa of entire districts by the psyment of
louoti!St are the parties respouslble for
the debt thus incurred. These parties
have reaped the benefit of the bounty
system. They were enabled to remain at
home, safely in the pursuit of their busi
ness. It would be doing violence to equi
ty to ask the soldiers who received these
rewards, to pay any portion of the taxes
to meet the debts incurred Ly the payment
of these bounties. That taxation can
ouly justly be paid by those for whose
benefit bo untie were offered to volunteers.
Hence, we reoeat the hope that Mr. Quay's
bill may speedily become a law. Its pro
visions arc strictly just and honorable;
and while the bill seeks to do an equita
ble act for the soldiers, we may also claim
that it proposes to save the people of the
Commonwealth from disgraoa.
Protection to American Mechanics.
There has always been a wide differ
ence of opinoin as to the extent of pro
tection necessary to enable the mechanics
of America to compete with the pauper
labor of Europe ; and this difference,
like many other adverse sentiments in re
lation to the trne policy of the Govern
ment, had its most persistent promoters in
the S''uth, where free trade was essential
to the stability of slave labor. Southern
politicians more or Ires influenced their
partisan friends all over the country.
Among the Agriculturists of the West, it
was for a long time mistakenly believed
that whatever benefitted the planters of
the South must also bo beneficial to the
farmers of the West. But this delusion
is fast being dispelled. Piratical men in
the West begiu to see that protection to
American mechanics is in reality the short
eat and the surest path by which to pro
aiole the interest of the Agriculturists.
Many of the most influential newspapers
of the West are unreserved in acknowl
edging and urging the necessity of imme
diate protection. They feel that to this
policy Government must look for the re
alisation of its largest revenues, and that
the enterprise of the country can alone
depend on a judiciously established tariff
for protection against pauper competition
from abroad.

REBEL IMPUDENCE.
fThe following is a cool piece of Reb
el impudence... Of course the re-cuostuet.

by the Union armies during the war, on

WsTshixoton, Jan. 8. In the fall of
1S61, while Gen. Sickles was in command
down in Maryland, near Leonardtown, he
found that disloyal people in Maryland
kept up a regular army in Virginia that
all his movements were spied out, and vaL
uabje storefVere smuggled across the Po
tomac Determined to break it np he ar
retted a number of farmer who were
suspected of disloyal practices, and . those
who would not take the oath wete sent to
Washington and confined in the Old Cap
itol. ' " -
Among them was Joseph H. Maddox,
who at length agreed, to take the oath,
and was released. He soon disappeared,
and was next found coming through the
Rebel lines, and being arrested by one of
Gen. Baker's detectives, he was toaod to
have just returned from a smuggling ex.
peditioo to Richmond, and had upon him
a regularly executed contract with the
Rebel Navy Department : for supplying a
large amount ot storos that were scarce
aud valuable. He was again brought to
his former quarters in the Old Capital.
After confinement of some months, he
again took the oath and was again releas
ed, disappearing from the annals of the
n7 polii? for about a year.
He was next caught by one of Baker's
steaming patrols taking a small schooner
load of goods aaros s the Potomao. The
prinolple portion of the earo was twelve
barrels of whiskey.
Grant was then in front of Richmond
and Petersburg, and the Rebel army was
iu great need of medicine and stimulents
ai well as provision. He was brought to
Washington and again consigned to bis
old quarters in the Old Capital.
The information of illicit traffic then
in progress via toe Rappahannook and
Fredericksburg, led to the sudden descent
of cavalry and gun-boats upon the Rebels
who were running large amounts of to
bacoO North in exchange for bacon and
medicines; and the destruction of one
vessel going up the Rappahannock River
loaded with stores and of large amounts
of tobacco in Frederioksba rg, and stored
at a point south of there, and also of two
railroad trains caught in the act of smug
gling more Northward. VYbilo this was
goin on Maddox was in prison, and on
bis subsequently ajain taking the oath he
was released, but before he was out twen
ty four hours he violated that oath, hul
was not a:ain arrested.
He now appears in New Tork, asking
damages of Secretary Stanton for hie pro-
pective amount of profits upon his con
traband trade broken up by the army, and
asks to be paid for his imprisonment.
It is said he bates his hopes on the plea
that treason is not a crime. He is a
brother of the rebel Dr. Maddox, who as
assinated Paymaster Dixon, United States
Army, a few weeks hi nee, in Alexandria,
and whom a reconstructed Judge released.
Unless Congress passes a law of indem
nity, every man who has been in the Uni
on service, from the Seoretary of War
down, Is liable to arrest and punishment
from late Rebels, traitors aud thieves,
who have boon baffled in their designs
upon the life and purso of the nation.

Of this grand aggregate whioh says
nothing of the armies of the rebel States
there were about 1,000,000 soldiers re
ported for duty at ono and the same
time, and 600,000 or more fit for duty.
If the rebels had 500,000 men, which es
timate will do as well as any in the ab
sence of precise knowledge and is about
an average of the several estimates made,
the total amounts to 3,153,002 men, or in
rouud numbers, three and one quarter
millions.
Now, the largest army ever assembled
at any ooe time during the Revolution
was that comanmded by General Punam,
on Loag Island. That numbered 17,000
men of all arms. The next largest wjs
that with which Washington captured
Corowallis at Yorktown, when he had
16,000. Our largest army assembled in
1812 was commanded by Jackson, at New
Orleans, and counted but 6,000. Coming
down to the Mexican war, Taylor won his
victories with a force never exceeding
5,000, and Scott's largest force was not
beyond 8,500. The largest army prior to
the rebellion was therefore that of Put
nam, at Long Island 17,000 men ; and
that was 151,000 less than the splendid
force with which McClelljn achieved
nothing, perhaps 200,000 less than that
with which Grant achieved victory and
peace.
The increased military power of the
country is partially shown iu these facts,
though, to ronder the comparison full,
tho greater proprotional growth of the
oavy, and of transportation, food and
manufactures, should be couotcd iu. And
to enlarge this gratifyiqg knowledge of
swelling resources it must be remembered
that in the Revolution nianofactures had
no power, commerce was unknown, rail
ways an mining vere unknown, whiled all
these and hundreds or thousands of other
important interests were no; only kept up
to their maximum, but even enlarged dur
ing the late war. Are uot these the sur
est and best proofs possible of that growth
of which we boast, and of that power on
which we rely, as well as of tho vitality
upon which we depenc to make the fu
ture as strong and as brilliant as can be
desired 1 It seems to us an affirmation
not only of our military strength but of
our resources, in reliance upon which we
can proceed to build snd adorn without
fear of further domestic discontent or any
foreign foe, and with a certainty that
every new year's added wealth is guarded
by more than equivalent defence. ' At
such a ratio the Union of 1900 ' vill be
riveted through ana through, bolted and
.mailed ao compactly that all which has
beco ventured within its limits, of what
ever sort, will be more and more sure of
complete protection consequently of un
disturbed growth. This consideration
will at least be important abroad, and eu
courage the immigration temporarily stop

' State Treasurer Kenible, in his annual
report to the Legislature, gires a very
satisfactory account of the finances of the
commonwealth, and one which roost afford
especial gratification to the publio at a
time when the finances of the city and of
the nation are so much embarrassed by
tie loads of debt consequent upon the
dinary expenses of the War were more j
than five millions of dollars, the financial
condition of the State is two millions of
dpllars better than it was last year.
This has been achieved by prudent
management of our regular expenditures,
as well as by the raising of additional
revenues, so that the incomt. now greately
exceeds the expenses. Mr. Kemble there
fore reeomnends three measures of large
interest. First,' he proposes to relie?
the owners of real estate of the present
State tax thereon ; second, he urges a
better law for collecting the tonnage taxeri
as under the present arrangement not one
quarter pr cent, is obtained from there,
whereas one per cent, would yield two
and a half millions per annum; third,
he recommends the taxation of the nation
al baoka in this commonwealth, which
are at present exempt from State tax.
These propositions are of o much im
portance ai to demand very serious con
sideration by the Legislature. It would,
iq the preseut condition of public affairs,
be a great relief to real estate owners in
this commonwealth to be informed th.it
the State will no longer tax them. The
n,iiil HpmnnrU nnnn ral estate are everv-
where necessarily heavy. Local govern-
mcnt is supported and local improvements
made almost exclusively by means of tax
es upon real estate, which during the war
have been greatly swollen in the rural dis
tricts, as well as iiuthe cities and towns,
by the outlay for bounties to volunteers,
and for the relief of the families of sol
diers. If, by receiving money from other
sources, the State can remit its own real
estate tax, it would be a real ooon to the
whole community, since all share alike
ultimately in the payment of these imposts.
The suggestions of the State Treasurer
as to raising additional revene from cor
porations are eminently proper, and should
be adopted. All of tbese corporations
are or should be well able to pay such tax
es. The objection urged to the proposi.
tion when the '.resent act was under con
sideration in the Legislature, was that
some weak and struggling companies
could not sustain the burden, but the real
reason for opposition was that it would
take large sums of money from some pow
erful corporations, and this will no doubt
be seen when Mr. Kemble's recommenda
tion comes up at the presen' session.
The taxation of banks was one of the
chief sources of revenue oa which the
State uaed to rely, and to lopg as the
banking system was under the control of
the State government the taxes were as
sessed as a matter of course. But un
der the national sy stem it had been pre
sumed that ihe banks could not be taxed
by the State. Some recent judicial de
cisions of high authority show that this
ground is untenable. Indeed we do not
see the justice of exempting this corpor
ate capital from State taxation while all
o ther corporate capital pays heavy taxes.
We presume that the present Legislature
will adopt the suggestion, and levy a tax
od all the national banks in the common
wealth.
These are times when the public iritor
ests demand that there shall be no favor
itism in the levying of taxes. It is op
pressive to the masses of the people to re
lieve these great corporations of their
Que share of the public burdens, while
every person in the community is taxed
ao heavily as ao inevitable result of the war.
Mr. Kemble's financial scheme is iu our
opinion a very able ooe, and should meet
with the support of the Legislature, as
we sincerely trust it m;iy jV. American.
The Keiura of Uof. Curtin.
Habrisburo, Jan. 15, I860.
Letters received in this city from Gov
ernor Curtin, dated Havana, January 5,
state his intention of departing from Cuba
on the 15th inst., from which we infer that
he will reach New York by the 18th, and
thus enabled him to be in Harrisburg by
the 19th or 20th. The preat expense of
living in Cuba, and the desire ot the
Governor po longer to delay the action of
the Legislature, induces him thus early to
leave Cuba, notwithstanding a longer stay
would be highly beneficial to his health.
The following letter from Surgeon Gen
eral Phillips will be interesting in this
connection,
