'The Defenders of the Republic.
There are manifest and many duties be
fore üb. They would be new if we had not
expected them. They are almost, there
fore, familiar because we have been dis
cussing and preparing for them* Weighty
•and inevitable they are, but we can make
them light and easy if we meet them in
the good spirit of this hour of resolution
and of rejoicing. What could vye thus refer
to but our obligations to 11 The Defenders
of the Republic ?” Hundreds of thousands
of these brave citizens will soon be returned
to their homes. Now, while it would be an
insult to say that the State, or the Govern
ment, or Society, is to. have all these men
made a charge upon their generosity or
their charity, it is true that there are many,
very many, who have powerful claims upon
the country. We can never class them as
a trouble or a vexation, so long as we re
flect upon the splendid voluntary benevo
lence created and stimulated by the
war, when families, left without their pro
teetors were cared for, and the needs of
thousands of others met and satisfied. For
if these were possible and prosperous in
the midst of strife, why should they not
be equally so in the midst of peace ? Be
sides, innumerable avenues and opportuni
ties will open and offer for the unpro
tected and destitute soldier. The citizen
first and most entitled to consideration is
he who has fought to crush the rebellion.
Mr. Lincoln's Administration set the ex
ample in this direction soon after the war
began, and Andrew Johnson will follow
it. The rule may operate hardly upon
some who hold office, but it cannot upon
those who did not go to the field, and
would not; and we feel sure that many
who have enjoyed the pleasure of peace
will gladly aid those who have enabled
them to enjoy it. The lame and the muti
lated should be looked to at once. Happily,
however, the National Government follows
all these with its laws, and the widows and
families of those who have fallen are also
remembered. But that class needs more
than this kind of aid, and whenever it can
he rendered it should be freely given.
Pennsylvania, under the auspices of Go
vernor CUETIN, and, aided bythe splendid
donation of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company and the liberality of the last
Legislature, has provided for the education
and the rearing of the destitute orphans of
the gallant dead. Other States have done, or
will not fail to do, likewise. The sym
pathy and aid of established institutes,
hospitals, schools, seminaries, asylums,
will, of course, be tendered. The large
manufactories, corporations, municipal
and individual, the contractors on public
works, could do immense service. Nor,
as we care for our Union boys, must
we forget the Union refugees from
the South. Nor can we turn coldly
from the rebel penitents themselves,
our erring brothers, it is true, but objects
of sympathy in the midst of their own
grievous distress and agony. There now
is a great work. We cannot overlook
it. It ought to be gratefully ac
complished. The war brings with it
many duties,.but this is one of its highest,
if not its holiest. Do not let us say it is a
part of the price we have paid for peace;
for our relation to it would have been as .
close and religious if the war had brought
us defeat. But peace and victory make it
a thrice blessed duty, and make it the more
delightful. But there is a neccessity to or
ganize the work. Good intentions are
plenty; generosity is ready; and patriot
ism abounds. But some one must organize
the work—and the sooner it is begun the
better.
raying Off the Debt.
A short time ago, the English press
commented-with great severiiy, on what
it Was pleased to characterize as
“ American audacity and perfidy,”—-ex
emplified, it declared, in our tariff. Eng
land, it seems, having abandoned her prin
ciples of Protection, after centuries of ex
perience, now grumbles at every other na
tion which does not go with her into Free
Trade. We> have found it necessary to
carry out a protective policy, to prevent
our manufacturers from being swamped by
importations from foreign countries, and es
pecially from England, which predominates
in the production of fabrics from cotton,
flax, and the useful metals. Our tariff is
■strictly defensive , as it ought to be. In some
Tespects, however, we grant privileges
to foreign countries in which our own ma
nufacturers are not allowed to participate.
Let us instance, for example, the great sta
ple of cotton.
It may not be generally known, but the
fact is indisputable, that no tax whatever is
levied upon cotton exported from this to any
other country- That is, there is no export
duty whatever upon cotton, raw or manu
factured, sent out of the United States. Of
course this is an immense bonus to foreign
ers, who work up the raw cotton into vari
ous fabrics, which are sent back to us, to
compete with the fabrics produced by
American labor and capital. Anxious to
give all possible assistance to her cotton
lords, England has not put any import duty
upon the staple received from this country.
On the other hand, see how our cotton
manufacturers are treated. First, there is
a duty upon every pound of the raw mate
rial. Then there iB a further tax upon all
products manufactured from this raw mate
rial. Lastly, there is a tax on the income
or profit accruing from this manufacture.
It mast be a very small manufacturer indeed,
who does not realize $lO,OOO per annum by
his business. On this profit, and upon all
profits in excess of that $lO,OOO per annum,
an income-tax of 10 per cent, has to be paid.
The remarkable resnlt is that the combined
duties'amount to nearly as much as the value
Of the taw material (ginned cotton), and
we may add, what is not generally known,
that as much cotton as is put into a factory
to he worked up, so much more money is
required to work it—namely, for rent, in
terest of capital, insurance, machinery, re
pairs, wages! &c.
The conclusion to he drawn from these
facts iB that England protects her manu
facturers by admitting cotton, from all
parts, duty-free, and that our somewhat
hasty system Of internal taxation, which
levies heavy duties upon raw cotton, upon
manufactured cotton, and upon the profits
of the trade, does not protect American
industry and enterprise. The manufac
turers of Lancashire, Lanarkshire, and
Nottingham work up duty-free cotton, and
send the results to this country to com
pete with our own manufacturers, who
have to work up a heavily taxed material.
It may well be a matter of surprise how
any American mill-owner thinks it worth
his while to compete, at such fearful odds,
with British manufacturers. Our produc
tion of cotton fabrics is principally limited
to Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Rhode
Island, and Connecticut, there being
a mhch smaller enterprise of that na
ture in New York, New Hampshire, New
Jersey, and a few other States, but the
wonder is that any capitalist in any place
continues to work under the burthen of
such fiscal disadvantages. That England,
which profits so very largely by receiving
©nr cotton without paying any duty upon
it should complain of our putting her ma
nufactures under a protective tariff is sim
ply absurd.
There is a strong necessity, as well as a
-great deeire, to raise sufficient revenue to
meet the expenses of the Government and
the interest on the Debt.
"Why should not Cotton, now taxed bo
heavily At home, also he taxed when it
goes abroad, to he converted into manufac
tures destined to compete with our own ?
The valuable Return on the Agriculture of
the United States, compiled by Mr. Kbn
nedt, the Superintendent of Census, and
just published at Washington, shows that,
in the year 1860, there were grown, in all
parts of the United States, 5,387,052 bales
of ginned cotton, each bale of 400 pounds,
which we take to be' below the ave
rage weight, usually estimated at 433
pounds. Take it, however, at Mr. Ken
nedy's average of 400 pounds, and the
whole cotton product of the United States
in 1860, the year next preceding the rebel
lion, was 2,154,820,800 pounds. Now, sup
pose that the duty of 2 cents per pound had
been levied on this, a Tevenue of over 43
million dollars would have been derived
from this article alone. Or, if all the cot
ton consumed at home had been untaxed,
and only the exported article made subject
to a duty, say of 5 cents a pound, the Reve
nue would have been still larger. There
were 1,767,686,338 pounds so exported in
1860, and the tar on this would have ex
ceeded 88 millions dollars.
Before the rebellion, the South, always
selfish and grasping, would not have
allowed its cotton exports to be taxed.
But it can be done now—and it ought to
be done, leaving all consumed at home
wholly untaxed. It will he some time
before we shall go back to anything like
the production of 1860, but Texas alone
has every capability for cottongrowing,
and can produce as much cotton, and at
least as good, as all the rest of the world
now produces. It is practicable, and would
be just for Cotton, which created the War,
to pay off the Debt, within a' reasonable
time.
The Lot of the South.
A significant subject for Southern reflec
tion is afforded by a paragraph in a late
number of the Paris Debata. That jour
nal, in commenting upon their destiny,
says “ it has nothing so very painful,” and
continues thus :
"To return Into the bosom of a powerful empire
without humiliation, without other saorlSees than
those imposed bv the spirit of the times and the very
necessities of the war, to return to Industry and the
arts ef peace, and to take pan in the great movement
of prosperity which always follows civil war —such Is
the lot of the South, and this lot far surpasses all the
advantages With which, it had been lured by the insti
gators of this unfortunate GiiierfWse”
This philosophic judgment of an impar
tial observer will be affirmed by the van
quished when inflamed passions subside
and calm reason resumes her sway. Four
years of experiment have done much to
teach the Confederate States that the North
is quite as essential to the South as the
South is to the North, and a fair trial of
free labor and a large infusion of Northern
energy and thrift will confirm this lesson.
Pio Mono.
Within the memory of living men, two
Sovereigns have had Papal Bulls of ex
communication fulminated against them.
In 1809, Pope Pius VII. thus placed Na
roLEON I. under the ban of the Church,
and in 1860 Victor Emmanuel was put
into the same category by Pius IX. In
neither case, however, were the monarehs
named, the Pope confining himself to a so
lemn and reiterated publication of the
penalties decreed by his predecessors
against those who unjustly invaded the
territories of the Holy See, usurped or vi
olated its rights, or violently impeded their
free exercise. Excommunication, by the
way, is not peculiar to the Church of Rome.
It existed in ancient Rome, as well as in.
the Jewish Church, where it had three de
grees, and the intimate connection of things
ecclesiastical and civil under the Jewish
polity, rendered it terrible, even as a tem
poral punishment. Exclusion from the syna
gogue for thirty days was the lowest and
lightest ban; the next was not merely exclu
sion, but a prohibition to hold any inter
course with the individual; the greatest, the
terrible Anathema M&rasatha, cast the of
fender out of the Church for life, deprived
him of all civil rights, cursed him very
thoroughly, and left him to the judgment of
God. Some centuries ago the excommuni
cation of a sovereign was regarded as free
ing Ms subjects from their allegiance, but
this is no longer claimed. The excom
munication, therefore, of any sovereign
is little more, now, than a bruiumfulmen--
not a bite, but a bark. Still,'it signifies
the Pope’s indignation or condemnation.
It is reported that Victob Emmanuel,
practically excommunicated, though not
individually named, should lately have
been the recipient of a letter from the Pope,
in which it is proposed that Bishops to the
diocese's vacant in such of the Estates of
the Church as are part of the new King
dom of Italy shall be appointed by the
Pope, who will give Victob Emmanuel
permission to appoint Bishops to the vacant
sees in what was formerly the Kingdom of
Sardinia. In the three Italian duchies, and
the Kingdom oi the Two Sicilies, now un
der Victob Emmanuel’s rule, many sees
are vacant, and the question of filling them
up is to he left to negotiation, the Pope
being willing to receive an Ambassador
from Victob Emmanuel to make the
arrangement. It is difficult to believe
that Jhe Pope would make any such
concessions as these, though his doing
so would indicate either that he pos
sessed a large share of common sense,
or that he was not above taking good advice.
Aa a temporal prince, he never will appear
to,submit to the transfer ofthe Estates of the
Church which now form part of the new
Kingdom of Italy, though he may have to
submit to it. The Sovereign Pontiff, no
doubt, will still designate himself master
of the Church provinces, wMch appear
lost for ever to himself and successors,
just as, until the year 1801, some centuries
after they had ceased to possess one foot of
Gallic soil, the British sovereigns styled
themselves Kings of “ Great Britain,
France, and Ireland,” and as Victob Em
eantjel himself, on the throne of Sardinia,
also bore the empty title of “ King of Je
rusalem.”
Pope Pius, maintained in Rome by
French troops, will soon lose that substan
tial support. The Convention of Septem
ber last, between Napoleon and Victor
Emmanuel, provides that, in two years
after date, the French army of occupation
should be withdrawn from Rome, and it is
known that the Pope positively declines to
form an army of his own. The Gaselta de
Milano, which has the character of being
one Of the most trustworthy journals in
Italy, declares that the conditions offered
by Victor Emmanuel to Pius IX before
the Convention of September was drawn
up were as follows: ‘ ‘ Entire independence
of the Pope in the ecclesiastical affairs of
Italy, and the right of nominating the
bishops. Abrogation of all laws rela
ting to the- suppression of convents and
the appropriation of Church proper
ty ; the Pope alone to decide on any
reforms to be introduced into Church
matters. Repeal of all sentences against
bishops convicted of political offences.
The King of Italy to be Viceroy of
the Pope in the States of the Church.
Italy to assume the whole debt of the
Papal States. The King of Italy to
support—that is, pay—and command the
Guardia Nobile ; cardinals to rank with
Royal princes; all the Pontifical palaces,
except the Quirinal, to belong to the Pope;
and that palace to belong to the King of
Italy only as a residence, and even then to
he given up for election purposes on the
demise of any Pope.” The well-known
Paris journal, Le Siecle, declares, in add!;,
tion, that the signing of this treaty would
have been followed by the crowning of the
King of Itaiy on the Capitol. It is known,
too, that Victor Emmanuel does not Wish
for Rome as a place of residence, and pre
fers Florence, now the declared capital of
his Kingdom, and therefore would leave
the Eternal City—the Niohe of nations—
to the Pope.
If such terms were offered to Pjus IX,
it must be admitted that they were liberal,
but the obstacle to their being accepted
was that they wholly avoided the vexed
question of territory—faking it for granted,
we may say, that the Church provinces
-weie to remain under the rule of the King
of Italy. In a word, the proposed terms
would have simply left the Pope the great
spiritual Prince of Catholicity, and not
restored to him the means of resuming
power and exercising authority as a tern-
poral Prince. This is his difficulty: he
received, when elected, what is called the
patrimony of St. Pbteb, and is persuaded
that it is his duty not to leave it at all
diminished to his successors. It is a
scruple of conscience with the Pope, and it
iB impossible not to respect his motives as
well as pity his condition. That, under
any circumstances, Pius IX will change
his residence from Rome, and make a
foreign City the seat of the Holy @OB, does
not seem even remotely probable. The
Church of Rome will retain Rome.
No Compensation in Rebellion.
Nearly all extensive rebellions have pos
sessed some redeeming quality,) but the
people of the South obtained no compensa
tion, however small, for the ocean of evils
with which the slave rebellion deluged
them. They lost, through its agency, life,
Ijberty, and property, to an extent but little
short of the limit of their possessions, and
they gained from it nothing-but a few de
lusive hopes that served to lure them to
destruction. Their Saviour is the irresist
ible union of the States.
One of the most common objections
urged against the enfranchisement of the
blacks, and a powerful argument to the
minds of the great mass of workers at the
North was that the liberated negro would
immediately leave the 'scene of his bond
age, and enter into competition with our
own operatives. This is being refuted
every day and in every State where our
victorious armies are established. As soon
as freedom is attained and security assured
the freedman shows Ms willinghess to
return to his accustomed labors, in his
accustomed place. We are too apt to for
get that the South is the land of his birth,
that whatever attachments slavery has left
him still bind him to that spot, and that
the higher latitudes are only his abode by
compulsion. A late Richmond letter,
from a most competent authority, states
that the colored people of that city express
a desire to remain, and a confident expec
tation of the return of those that have for
merly found refuge in the North. When
peace is restored and their freedom as
sured, the colored, people Will gladly re
turn to their old homes and their old avo
cations, and even among the long-esta
blished and. educated in our own city we
hear that many are now looking forward
eagerly to the day when they may return
to a more congenial climate and a familiar
country.

LETTER FROM “OCCASIONAL.”
Washington May 5,18G5.
The case of a man who has read his own
obituary notice is not more amusing and
novel than the comedy acted in some of
the English papers, where victory to the
rebel arms is predicted in full view of the
evacuation of Richmond. The writers for
these papers may have deliberately spoken
falsely ; and, if so, they only proved their
prejudice, which is far more blameworthy
than ignorance; but in either case their
fate will be ridiculously humiliating. More
than a week since they heard of the events
tb at succeeded the downfall of the rebel capi
tal, including the tragedy of the night of
Friday, the 14th of April, and for that in
formation they will, probably, take a
a new observation, more intelligent, let us
expect, if not more gratifying to them
selves. I have already suggested to these
commentators the sublime lessons they
may draw from the murder of the Ameri
can President, and the manner in which
the American Government moved on in
response to the working of our Constitn
tion and Laws; but there are other teach
ings, growing out of subsequent develop
ments, that you must not permit them to
lose sight of. They cannot be blinder than
the rebel leaders, especially as they must
admit ihat, loudly as the British tories have
clamored for treason and prayed for its
triumph, the rebels Wve left them far be
hind in the work of vaunting and falsehood.
And yet there is not now a pro slavery
chief, from Davis to Mosby, and from
Lee to Forrest, that does not openly con
fess that the rebellion is at an end, and the
national authority impregnably re-esta
blished. It seems hard to realize these
things, if we carry hack our minds lesß
than six weeks; but, as we do so, we also
comprehend a new phase of guilt bn the
part of these reckless and wicked men.
For they knew they were lying at the time
they were most earnest in rejecting Mr. Lin
coln'e terms of Peace, and in remaining
L'outrance in the field. How many graves
were filled on account of tMs hellish lie the
last dread account will reveal and revenge.
Let strangers Who have dwelt on this drama
with hope and joy, however, take with them
to their homes the stem truth that our United
America is fortified forever against all
future internal strife; that if we have
fonght bitterly,' yet have we suffered
together; and that as we. bury our hates
out of sight and mind, and banish and
punish those who forced and fomented this
war, the whole American people, as they
swear a stronger fealty and a profounder
gratitude to their Constitution and their
country, are religiously resolved .to pre
pare for the great events which' must
sooner or later shake the civilized world.

LOW RATE OF STAMPED ENVELOPES,
BUSINESS CARDS, ETC.
It is doubtful if the public generally ar9 aware of
Ihe low rates at whioh stamped envelopes are fur
nished by the Government. A schedule of prices,
considerably reduced, has just been issued by
the Post Office Department, by which we learn
that a package of twenty-five stamped en
velopes, of letter also, may be purohased for
eighty-Eevcn cents, making the actual cost or
the envelopes, deducting postage, but twelve
cents, or lees than halCrh coat a piece. Envelopes,
o! note slzo, are furnished at two oents less per
package. The Department also issues stamped
two-cent envelopes, designed for drop letters and
circulars, the price of which Is $2.32 per hundred,
being at the rate of thirty-two cents for the hundred
envelopes, or something more than three en
velopes for one cent. These envelopes, of letter
and note size, are of superior quality, being
made of firm paper and smooth finish. The
olrcul&r envelopes are of ordinary quality, but
not gummed. Newspaper wrappers, so ooffienlont
for use in the sending of transient papers, are like
wise sold out at the Sow rate of $2lB pet hundred,
making the real espouse of the wrappers but
eighteen cents, or less than one cant for five
wrappers.

is on its way back to the point from wnenoe it set

set out in light marching order through Richmond
upon an easy homeward inarch. ” Home again,” Is

WBBBB ABB THIS SUBBBKDBfiBD GOITB!
Beauregard, Thompson, Bragg, and Hoke have
figured so conspicuously in the robelllon now in
process of being snuffed out, as to make their re
spective faces mattei s of Interest to all who have
cither participated In the late war or watched Its
gurglegs and shiftlngs from a safe dlstanoe. Beau
regard, Hardee, and Hoke were included to tho.sur
render of General Johnston’s army. Bragg I& said
not to have been Included, but being somewfcAfle in
the neighborhood of tae soene of surrender. It l& ex
pected he will come in and avail himself of the
privileges accorded to the army.
Hampton; lieutenant general, and lately
commanding the cavalry of Jonnston's eir&y, was
also left out, and there are many rumors and specu
lations as. to the cause.. One report is that Hamp
ton, Incensed at Johnston’s determination to sur
render, forced hlnrselfinto his presenoeand Insulted
bio grossly, when the latter shot and killed him
with a revolver. Wo attach no Importance to this
story. It does not fit the character of either of the
men.
Seme color has, however, been given to it by the
fact that Johnston, when asked what hod become
of Hampton, replied: ”1 have gotten rid of him}”
•• te will trouble us no more,” or something to that
effect. We feel well assured that Hampton is at this
time in command of the cavalry escort which at
tended Jeff Davis when he left Goldsboro’ for parts
unknown; and Johnston's evasive and somewhat
mysterious answers are easily accounted for by
his unwillingness to throw any light upon the
route xf escape taken by Davis and his follow
ers. It is far from improbable that Bragg, too, haß
gone With Davis. If he has not been willing to
Bhaie the fortunes of his chief, he £&& have no
spark of .gratitude, Davis loved him as neror
David loved Jonathan, and strove desperately and
persistently to make a great general oht of him.
He failed sadly, but through no fault of hl9, and It 19

court will arbitrate such oases as may be brought
before it in regard to the right of possession
of property, both personal" and real, and to
the payments of rents and debts, where con

A correspondent of the Chicago writing
from Duvall’s Bluff, Arkansas, gives a great many
strange facts about Arkansas, which has just come
out of rebellion, and Is in a state of transition.
From the members of the Legislature down to the
lowest of the people them is » wrt of aemoraUzi'
tion which will require a areat deal of time and
patience to correct. The writer says that when the
constitutional amendment was passed it was as a
preparatory measure, very difficult to geta quorum,
andwoontlnues:
There weie members enough In the city but not
at the capitol. From day to day were the houses ad
journed until legislators could he dragged from the
taverns and saloons , A motleyorowd, is to
shape the future of the State. The Legislature met
in the large hall of the capitol. A few rude wuoden
benches were set out lor seats, and the floor covered
with sawdust to absorb the excessive oxpeotoratlons.
The state is poor. The revenue she collects is
principally, U not wholly, srarrlsoned towns.
There trade oentree, and taste alone can the pro*
cess of civil oourts be executed. She has the
whole machinery of State Government, save
authority. A squad of soldiers must still protect
the sLetiff and enforce justice. Taxes are levied
and floes Imposed. The offloe of coUeotor Is doubt
less most profitable. The ounstltuonoy » small.
Less than a dozen rotes elected representatives.
Scouthcg parties sent into the eonntles opened
polls and elected their oandldatee without oppo
sition. The refoKees, prolific In dogs and children,
still [ponr in. Their narrow strip of land, stretch
ing along the base of a hill, and bordering a ri
vulet, sustains them no longer.' The plundering
habits of the gnerlllae forbid cnltlvatton, and the/
are tbuß forced Dorn their homes. They are ererse
to labor, and this Is well exemplified In a charac
teristic anecdote told by a surgeon. He wished to
hire the services of a boy for errands and Bnoh llko
dntles. and offered alad a good reoompense. Bnt he,
In great astonishment, broke ont: “ Work 1 why I
oan’twotk! I’m white!’- What a burden will they bo
to the Industry of the North. They willingly, though
not thankfully, subsist on Government bounty.
Like IsbmaeUtes they wander without even a
purpose. In fholr DigfitloDS the children sicken
and die, Mid not untrequvaVly w» see bnt one
remaining member of a once large family, They
have neither energy nor vitality. Even In oar
hospitals the large per eentage of deaths are of
Arkansas troops. It was ’a matter of surprise to
the citizens that there should be less mortally
among our soldiers than there was among the
Confederates stationed at like slokly places. The
Immorality prevailing among these rerngees Is snr.
prising. The negroes, likewise, are dying off.
Never berore so beautifully provided for, they
gorge end surfeit themselves. Disease comes, and
their numbers diminish. When possessed of money,
like children, they frequent stores and saloons with
that.lndefinlte purpose of buying something that
may attract. Few, indeed, have learned, or will
learn, the virtue of eoonomy.

to afford the Federal authorities aid In finding out
the tact, and to afford them every faculty which tho
law or treaties, or the comity of nations, may re

statement which Brigadier General Lee, made te

had there been any of the nature alleged he would
likely have heard of It. That offioer, as a Southern

Clark, of the rebel army, wbo was captured by one
or our scouting parties while endeaving to eioape
from Richmond on one of the last trains from
tbe doomed city, asserts that he was in charge
ol all the specie which was removed from Rich
mond: that when his train broke down, and he
found it Impossible to get It on the track and
off again, and seeing our forces approaching, he
ordeied It set on fire, and that all his efforts to save
the specie were unavailing; that the soldlers.broks
open the kegs, and amid theexcitement and tumult,
soldiers and citizens appropriated all there was.
He asserts that he knows that no other amounts of
specie not In the pockets of its owners were taken
from Blehmond, and that this lot was all stolen.
He states further that the amount has been vastly
over-estimated, and aonfirms the statement hereto
fore made by General Grant, that It amounted only
to about two hundred thousand dollars.
The English Budget.
We find In the London Globe, one of the seml-offi
oial English papers, tho following comments upon
the flnanolal statement of the Chancellor of the Ex
chequer :
The estimate for last year of the sum lo be re
quired for the service of the State, under all heads,
was £86,390 000. We have no reason to think that
It has been exceeded; and we know that no legacy
of liability will be found to have been thrown by It
upon 1266 66. The new estimates show a net reduc
tion of £316,000 on the navy, and £871,000 (Including
a largo Increase of repayments from India) on the
army- The total diminution of the cost of these
two services will tIIUS be £1,180,000, as oo'mparod
with tho past year. The civil service estimates are
not all before us; but even If It be au error It is a
whdesome one to calculate upon some increase,
and, speaking merely upon hypothesis, we think
we do not underrate the increase If wo pat It down
at the odd £190,000, the excess over a million
saued on tbe army and navy. This would be a
total reduction of a million, and would leave Mf.
Gladstone on the 27th of April with a probable ex
penditure of £65 390,0(0 to provide for. Lot us see.
what is likely to be the amount at his disposal to
enable him to discharge this obligation. Tao reve
nue for the year 1864-65 was £70,313,000. Had we
made no changes In taxation last April, the offeots
olwhlohwill spread somewbat over the year now
commenced, were we to make no changes now, and
were the state of theoonntryso far stationary that
we might not expect a progressively Increasing
yield consequent upon former reductions ortho ge
neral prosperity, that is at a first view tho snm upon
which we might calculate. That is to say, Mr.
Gladstone would have an Income of £70,313.089 to
meet an expenditure of £65,890,000, or a surplus of
£4.423,(06, There nre. however, Clreamstanoes
which affect this calculation both ways, in the
direction of dlmlnntlon we have to bear In mind
that some of tbe changes of 1861 will fall upon the
present year. It was expected that the alteration
ol the sugar duties would fall upon It to the extent
or £28,060, of the property tax to £433,000, and of
tbe fire Insurances to £70,000. AU these amount
to £631,000. Although this estimate will not be
fulfilled—for estimates of losses of revenue caused
by reduction of duty are the only ones whloh
practical results Invariably contradict—lt Is
but right to take the loss at tho full amount
contemplated. Again, we must recolleot that a
more than ordinary good harvest came In to
swell the returns of lest year, and we have no right
to atsume that the excise returns of 1865-66 will ex
ceed those of 1863-64 by £1,361,060, as those of the
lnleimedlate year have done. Bat in the balance
Of the account wo may put against this possible, and
In figures Inappreciable, loss, the wonderful elastici
ty of the revenue generally. The Chancellor of tho
Exchequer, with oommendable prudence, does not
take such an influence Into his ealoulatlcn, unless
as a fair thing to be estimated In softening the effect
of reductions, but he may very fairly put It against
the effects of a possibly bad harvest, and In the main
take 1866-66 to be as good In point of yield. Upon
this calculation, therefore, if we deduct the esti
mated losses, £631,000—0n the revenue of the pre
sent year, oaused by remissions made in 1864, from
the £70,313.000 whloh appears to be tbe present
rate of annual yield, we shall have a total revenue,
of £69,782 000 to provide fora total expenditure or
£66,890,000, In other words a snrplus of £3,890.000

The Paid l ire department of Hew York.
A temporary injunction was granted by Hr. Jus
tice Sutherland, yesterday, restraining the Mayor
and commonality of the city, and the Chief Engi
neer of the Fire Department, from transferring the
apparatus and other property of the Fire Depart
ment to the newly-appointed commissioners. Tho
injunction Is understood to hare been based upon
the opinion of the Attorney General of the State
that the law la unconstitutional, Inasmuch as It
exempts the city Of Brooklyn from It# opera,
lion, and leaves New York alone under the oon
trol of the Metropolitan Fire Commissioners,
viituaily making them city officers, who, accord
ing to the State -Constitution, can only be
elected by the people or appointed by Such authori
ties of the city as the Legislature shall designate.
Without attempting to dispute whether this point
of the opponents or tho law Is well taken or not, It
seems very elear, from the spirit which aotnated
the representatives of the Fire Department at their.
meeting on Wednesday evening, that the attempt
to establish any paid system will meet with factious
opposition. Chief Engineer Deoker and his col
leagues announced their determloauon, even before
the injunction was obtained, to recognise In no man
ner the authority of the now commissioners, and to
hold tenaciously, In spite of law, the ooutrol of
the old department and Its property, threatening
with Immediate disbandment any company which
might be found favoring the new order of affairs.
We eau assure the members of the Volunteer Fire
Department that, In yielding to this Improper spirit,
they are committing a grave error, which win con
demn them before the public, whose good oplulon,
In so far as they, as a body, are entitled to it, has
never yet been withheld.
It Is the well settled conviction of onr citizens that
a paid department must displace the present sys
tem, whose evils are patent and beyond dispute—to
no class more so than to the worthy members of the
volunteer organization—and as the reform Is sure to
be, sooner or later, Inaugurated, Chief Engineer
Decker, and those who are now acting with him,
would do well to accept the decree of fato with be
coming resignation.—New Nork’ Tima, May 4.
A Nonna Woman There Is now living In
Charleston Mias Ramsey. She Is a grand-danghter
or Henry L&UrtnS, and is connected witn the
Pinckney and Rutledge families- Tats lady Is tho
owner of the table on which the Declaration of In
dependence was signed. When the ordinance of
secession was passed In the city of Charleston, by
the State of South Carolina, every possible effort
was made to obtain this table on which to sign that
foul and fatal deed. Miss Ramsey not only In
dignantly refused to have it taken from her house
but threatened to shoot, with her own hand, the
miscreant who should attempt to remove it. We
were told these facts by a gentleman on whose
veraolty we most fully rely.
Good News.— lt may be seen by the following,
which we extract from the Boston Journal, that a
“fall In heel” Is In prospect In that city: “It will
he seen by the reports of the oattle markets, the
present week, that the decline In prices has at last
reached the beef market, and there Is a prospect
that we shall soon be able to get a good steak with
out paying forty-five to fifty cents a pound for It.
Both at Cambridge and Brighton there were a large
number of oattle left over this week. Cattle for
which it cents a pound was confidently expected
were sold at 14 cents, and butchers bought Tory shy
even at this decline. The reduction of the army
will take the Government out ofcthe market as a
purchaser, and lower prices still may be expected.”

ternoon an employee of the New York and Erie
Eallroad Company, named John Salaman, while
standing near the office foot of Duane street, In Now

and abusive manner of the late President, and lm
mediately requested him to desist, whereupon the

Thb HAitDBL asd Haydn Sooibtv terminated
their series of concerts for the season yesterday eve
ning, by giving a fine performance of Nedkomm’s
Oratorio of “David.” This work, besides being
replete with beantlful melodies, Is richly harmo
nious. The solo parts were sustained by highly
competent vooallsts. Mrs. Monart, of New York,
was the soprano of the evening, and rendered
the fine music entrusted to her with that
ability whloh' has given her snob a great repu
tation as an Interpreter of oratorio music.
Mr. Gecrge Simpson, also or New York, has a
rich tenor voice, and safag the part of David with
fine expression. Mr. A. 11. Taylor, of this city, was
the basso, and displayed his deep, full tones to great
advantage. The chorus, composed of members of
the Sooiety, was excellent, and showed marked
evidences of skillful training. The Germania
'Orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Carl
sentz, performed the Instrumental portions
of the work In an able manner. The audl.
enee was really immense, every portion of the
Musical Fund Hall being closely filled, and the
greatest satisfaction was evinced with the whole
performance. The season could not have been
dosed more sndoessfnlly.
Mb. Otto Dbbsbl will give the second of his
series of three concerts, at the Foyer of the Aca
demy of Music, this evening. A choice programme,
selected from the works of the best composers for
the piano, will be performed.
