In an article on this subject, the Tribinie says that this country is now running into debt at the rate of rally Five. Hundred Milli ons per annum, which would be reduced• con sidera.bly below. Four Hundred Millions by a tolorable approach to soundness in our cur rency.. That is to say : we are paying Eleven to Twelve Dollars per barrel for the flour and at least Twenty Dollars per hundred for the bacon consumed by our vast armies and naval forces, when we might buy at half these rates if our greenbacks were worth ninety to ninety-five. cents in coin per dollar. Our ships of. war, transports, ordnance,, small arms, anuAnition, and nearly everything else required for the prosecution of so gigan tic a war, cost us nearly twice as much—that is, add twice as much to our Public Debt—as they would if we had a tolerable sound Cur- That our Currency has fallen into &dal dation. is not the most discouraging fact; we are more disheartened by the leaden apathy wherewith this is accepted, and submitted to, wheii it should be treated by Eiecutive, gress and People precisely as a house on fire. There is no need that it should continue. We might g et out of this sloughtif we only would. It would cost something, but not half what it does to remain in it. Our law-makers and high officials should resolutely confront it, if only for their own sakes, since it is demon strable that none ot them is now more than half paid. The President's •$25,000 a year amounts really to a little over $10,000.; so with. Cabinet Ministers, Heads of Bureaus, and Congress. They are getting but half what the law shows them, because the mon ey they receive is worth but a minor. fraction of its face. -The greenback that calls itself • Via unconsciously a liar ; it is really but a little over $2. And this, like all other lies, though it seem for the moment advantageous, is a general mischief and detriment. The scheming, gaming few may make by it; but the industrious many must lose. Of course, it is urged that the vast neces sities of the Government render this curren cy, depreciation inevitable; and - we admit the plea to a: certain extent. We. have never be lieved, .and have not contended, that the country could have gone through such a straggle andimaintained a Currency based on and convertible into specie at par. That would have been too much like rushing the waters of Niagara through a pump-log. But • we need never have had Gold above fifty per. _ cent. pretnium, and ought now to have it far below that rate. Prompt and rigorous taxa ti ori first; then high rates of interest on tem porary loans or the sale along bonds at such rates as would command money, should have kopt currency inflation and depreciation with . in bounds, and prices - generally from ten to twenty:five per >cent., instead of seventy-five to one hundred and fifty,. above those of Peace. Some men make Money by currency depre ciation; but many seem to lose for every one who realizes a gain. The College professor, -the clergyman, the clerk, and all collets who live on salaries or tsol incomes, keenly feel that their dollars do not go nearly so far as they did, and donotleel that they get - more of them.. 'The lender who is off grum bles that the money paid him is worth but forty to fifty cents on the dollar, and forgets that, but for the depreciatlim, he might not have been paid at aIL Thuaevery one counts his losses by the depreciation; few perceive and fewer admit their gains." Never were so many mortgages paid off, so many long-standing debts squared up, as during the last three yearn; never" . were the industrious poorito nearly out of debt as now. Small farmers.Whe never knewbefore what it was to be out debt, have worked out du- 1 ring the last year or two. The country peo- 1 pie owe less to their merchants: 'the . mer chantsowe less to the cities; the cities owe, less to importers and to Europe, than for many years back. Nearly every dollar thus " paid.off ought-to have been drawn into in vestments in our Na ional Debt. Much of it has been; but very much has" 'not, -and we deeply regret it. Means should even yet be devised and perfected_to quicken and aug- 1 meat the stream of investment in the Nation al Loans.. But to this end the Government shotild seem strong and _rich, not shivering on the brink of bankruptcy. - Is there no financial genius in Congress? Are we to be content with shuffling expedi . ems and .eleventh-hoar devices? . Let the Moses who can smite effectively the rock of Public Credit stand forth and receive the ho mage of 4 rescued People! - Tns 5r1.411.351S RAIDERS RELEASED. —The public mind of this country was startled this • week by the announcement that the Coart at Montreld, 6.S;iada, before which the St. ,bans .raiders had been carried =has ordered .their, release, and, accordingly, ..they .have 'been set.free.

Artillery, had "got himselt in trouble," in., Chamitetsburg, Pa by shopting a soldier. The fact , we ettract ed at the time, from the "Franklin Reposito ry." The Lieut.- takes exception to the ex pression, "got himself in trotible'%--we think also, it•might be more elegant ; 'got' is an execrable word—and writes, requesting that we will, announce that he in no. troubles court of inTitry having. exonerated him, deeming it - "Rrfectly justifiable to Use a re-, volver under the circumstances." We are I really, happy that the Lieutenant halt been acquitted of blame in the affair; and we now cheerfully announce that he 'hag got—that abominable word again of trouble.— The lieutenant goes on in his letter :to state the high estimation in which he ja held by the eminent military authorities of this De partment,. "all military gentlemen and ses.si ba citizens." We are also, very happy on general principles, to hear all this from the estimable Lieutenant, - and congratulate the service upon the possession of so efficient an. officer; but out worthy friend will' excnse us from publishing his epistle in consequence of the irrelevant matier. 'it contains. -llad he confined himself to• a. denial •of the fact that he had "got himself in trouble," we would have publishedhis even theu,,extraor- dimuy letter, quite readily ;-_but. when the amiable Lieutenant devotes a paragraph to instituting a comparison between the citizens of Pottsville and Chambersburg, unfavorable to the former, we will not do injustice to the warm-hearted, loyal people of this place, by publishili it. In conclusion we might -say to our , apparently • sensitive correspondent, that we not only did not state, but had no idea• of intimating that he acted improperly in - the shooting affair. We are now _convin ced from the action of the court of inquiry 'that he was justifild in the act. • Raving said, this much, we must bid Lieutenant Underhill - • TEAT staunch Old patriot; Gen.

That is right. That is the kind of action the peo ple want: If BritiSh judges, are, to be permit ted to release murderers and, thieves, men who depredate on our frontier towns, we, must protect ourselves, and the Government of Great Britain will find us promptutudess it disavows the act.of Mr. Justipt.

ELEICHCIVS NEW VETERAN CORPS. WASHINGTON, Dec.-14, 1864. EDITORS MINERS' JOITILNAL :—The prominent subject of interest for the past few days has been d. the War Department order in regar to the or ganization of a new volunteer army Corps, under the supervision-of Major General Hancock, who is 'to be its commander. The corps is to amidst of not less'than twenty thousand. infantry. ;'the en listed men to be able bodied, and those who have served honorably twe 'years, and are therefore not subject to the draft. AnyU. S. District Provost Marshal is authorized to decide the qualifications for admission to the corps; and if approved, will furnish the veterantransportation to Washington, where he will be regularly musteredlor not lea, than one year, and will be paid a special bounty of three hundred dollars from the - substitute fund 'upon . being mustered into the service. This spe cial inducement must be understood'as in addi tionjo the regular bounty of one, two, and -three hundred dollars paid for on; two, and threenem enlistments respectively. Also, it is' allowed for any recruit to receive auch local bounties as may be paid at the districts where theirfamilies are domiciled, to which district they will be credited. The corps will have a special badge to designate it, ofreculiar uniform. • The prombie that'. each recruit who preserves arms to the end of his term may r tam thorn as his turn, upon being honorably- discharged from service, is a festive which gives great • ducement for good men to encourage this move ment who.would appreciate • this liberal offer,of _the. Government, and always thereafter caie- Idly preserve them as relics earned in a fearful :contest for Liberty and Union. The fact is that.ldeneral Hancock's reputation sa a vigorous and Anita counnaudor is not to he -made by iievoniraper writers but is. lready apart of our ilprions.initory, made . so by the lmen.. one . brilliant deeds of the 'Divisions and Corps he has comManded during-this war. • • Thearms and equipment's will be the most . - approvedin possession of-the Government lipersonsdeatiring.Connoisilions in this Corpe• 'riniet - reake application in writing to the Adjutant General of the _tinny, _ . --Washiinitun;D.
