S. McCIBLLAW. Our New Dress. We present the Massimo= to its patrons, this week, in a new dress, except the solver tidal. type, which will look well a year or two longer. We trust the money expended in improving the paper will prove to be well in vested, and it will so prove, if it leads all de linquents to settle their accounts. We shall need a large number of "Greenbacks" by the first of next month. To Our Patrons. The caning Court week will afford a good opportunity for those Indebted to us to make payment. We are in need of pecuniary help. A little from each one will relieve us from present embarrassments, and will not distress the pockets of our creditors. Our Prospective Taxation. The enonsons evening of the present war, aggregating, with the force now in the field, fully tisep millions of dollars per day, and to be still farther increased by the addi ti•oal 300,000 Galled for by the Presicket, arnlibely to raider. Gar taxation, present and prospective, even more burthenexue than that of the English and French people, the meet tax-oppressed of all civilisettviations.— In France there is a popuktioa of thirty-five inillions, and their annual taxes reach three hundred and forty-seven millions of &flare, or ten dollars each for every man, woman and child in that empire. In England, with a population of about twenty millions, the taxes are two hundred and eighty millions of dollars, or fourteen dollars each. To raise this fourteen dollars per head, Rev. Sidney Smith assures us taxes are imposed on "every article which enters into the month, or car ere the back, or is placed tender the foot— taxes upon everything which is pleasant to see, hear, feel, smell or taste—taxes upon warmth, light, and locomotion—taxes on ev erything on earth, and the waters under the earth-..0n everything that comes from abroad, or is ippirg at borne--taxes on every material—Taxes cm every fresh value there added to it by the industry of man—taxes on the wince which pampers man's appetite, and the drug that restores him to health—on the ermine which decorates the Judge, and the rope which hangs the criminal—on the poor man's salt, and the rich man's spice— on the brass nails of the coffin, and the rib bons of the bride—at the bed or board, couchant or levant, we must pay—the school boy whips his taxed top—the beardless youth manages his taxed horse, with a taxed bridle, on a taxed road and Our dying Englishman, pouring his medicine, which has paid seven per cent., into a spoon that has paid fifteen per cent., dings himself back upon his chintz bed, which has paid twenty-two per cent., and expires in the arms of an apothecary, who has paid a license of a hundred pounds for the privilege of putting him to death.— His whole property is then immediately taxed from two to ten per cent. Besides the probate, large fees are demanded for burying him in the chancel ; his virtues are handed down to posterity on taxed marble; and he is then gathered to his fathers—to be taxed no more." Such is the picture of English taxation drawn by a master hand, and such the price the English people are paying for their small stock of "military glory." If the present unnatural and fratricidal war should terminate within three months, it is the impression of the best financiers in the country that our public debt would ap proximate to three thousand millions of dol lars, the interest on which would amount to some $180,000,000 per annum, nearly or quite all of which would have to be raised by direct taxation, as the duties on imposts and the other ordinary sources of revenue would not afford more than enough to meet the cur rent expenses of the Government. It should ' not be matter of surprise if here, as in Eng land, "the prodigious patronage which the colk4ctiag of this splendid revenue will throw ' into the Wads of the Administration, should invest it with so vast an influence, and hold out such means and temptatioes to corrup t don, as all the virtue and public spirit even of geed men will be unable to resist." To meet the enormous taxation which is certainly in More for them, our pee* taunt practice the closest and most rigid economy. Nothing but industry and ilood reannimment, pod rigid aelfilimini, will enable thaw to eara7 tie biuthene which must inevitably be impo sed see them.

We wish the Chronicle all the prosperity, as a news journal, it deserves, and its merits in this line are indisputably great. The Dedication of the Soldiers' Con- try at Gettysburg. The dedication of the Soldiers' Ceme try, at Gettysburg, Pa., took place on the 19th ult. Edward Everett delivered the Oration on the occasion, and speeches were made by President Lin coln, Seward, Gov. Seymour, Forney, "the President's dog," and others.— The President, it will be seen by the following report of his Remarks, couldn't get off even a five minutes' speech without lugging in his pet absurdity about the equality of the races. Ac earding to his construction of the words in the Declaration of Independence, that "all men are created free and equal," the men who signed that sacred instru ment "were hypocrites and liars, as one of the reasons assigned by them for their revolt against the mother country was the interference of the Government with their slaves." But here is the speech Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation, . conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. (Applause.)— Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived, and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We are met to dedicate a portion of it as the final resting-place of those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here have consecra ted it far above our power to add or de tract. (Applause.) The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. (Applause.) It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work that they have thus far nobly carried on. (Applause.) It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us, that from these honored dead we take in- . creased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full mea sure of devotion ; that we here highly resolve that the dead shall not have died in vain (applause); that the nation shall, under God, have a new birth of free dom, and that governments of the peo ple, by the people, and for the people shall not perish from the earth. (Long and continued applause,) SEWARD "announced himself sixty years old, and said that forty years ago he predicted the b'.o3dy struggle in which the country is now engaged, and was glad to know it would result in the Abolition of slavery. FORNEY con tented himself, as usual, with fawning ; he announced Mr. Lincoln the savior of his country, which, in the absence of any jokes, by that functionary, must be re garde.' as one of the speaker's last bits of pleasantry. Although frequently hi larious, Forney makes no pretensions to wit or humor ; but the announcement alluded to, is so ludicrous as to render it irresistibly funny. Old Abe is saving his country with a vengeance. His in duction into office was accompanied by rebellion ; he has been trying to con duct hostilities with the entire power of the country to back him ; and, after nearly three years, he has concluded to use his power more effectively to carry the elections North, than to put down the rebellion in the South. In this he has the experience and assistance of the corrupt crew, whose spokesman hails him as the Saviour of his country. Mr. Seward, who has become nervously anx ious as to his fame as a prophet, vindica ted his pretensions by the assertion that forty years ago he had anticipated that the battle of freedom would be fought upon the field of Gettysburg. At the early age of twenty he must have re ceived, from some Egyptian charmer, a magic by which he "could almost read the thoughts of people." However that may be, we all know that he has by his frequent "prophecies, libels and dreams," for the past two years, render ed himealf the ridicule_ of foreign gov ernments, ate the twaddler of our own.

The poor will find little conimisseration fur their suffer ings while the "nigger" and "nigger-freeing" are the rage. Delaware—Another "Free Election" and another "Great Union Victory." The election for a member of Congress in the State of Delaware, last Thursday, was a mere form—N. B. Smithers, the Adminis tration candidate, having been chosen with out opposition. As the control of the polls was given to the Military, by command of the Dictator Schenck, and a test oath was re quired of all voters hostile to the Administra tion, the Democrats very properly withdrew their candidate, the Hon. Charles Brown, and did not attend the election. A State on which the foot of a rebel army never trod, says the Patriot and Union, and where all the appliances of civil government were unobstructed in their operation, was vir tually disfranchised by a military edict.— Forms and qualifications were imposed to which no high-minded citizen could submit without self-degradation and conscious dis honor. Accordingly the conservative men of the State withdrew from the contest, satis fied to leave the interpretation of their acts with the judgment of their fellow-country men. "When one's adversary is playing with marked cards and loaded dkr, the only rem edy is to retire from the game." This was done; and in the forthcoming Congress Del aware will be represented by bogus members with no legitimate constituency. The same is true, to a great degree, of Maryland. The conservative men of Delaware have asserted their manhood as true Americans, in whose breasts the soul of freedom still lives. Delaware is the third State in which the fundamental franchise of American freemen —the right of suffrage—has been stricken down by Federal despotism and arrogance,— Kentucky first, then Maryland, and now Delaware. So we go. Speaking of the recent successful military movement in Delaware, by the traitor con spirators against State Rights, Civil Liberty, the Coustitution and the Uuion, the Dover Delawaresn says : "The task is now completed—the work begun a year ago. There is no struggle now —the struggle is over. Life is extinct—the life of our liberties, The voice of the people of the State of Delaware is hushed—silence reigned in Delaware at the election on the 19th inst. "Suwarow, the military butcher that did the bloody work of Russia in crushing out the liberties of the turbulent, freedom-loving Poles wrote to his mistress, when he had murdered thousands of them, and made them bow their necks submissively to his government, that 'Order reigned in Warsaw!' Order now reigns in Delaware—Order No. " True and Faithful. The Democratic party, (says the Albany Argus) since the war commenced, as well as before, has been true to its traditionary char acter and faithful to the Union of the States and the Constitution, which forms the charter and bond of union. It has cheerfuily suppor ted an administration, not of its own choice, with the men and means to suppress the re bellion, and it has protested against no -mea sure directed to that end, warranted by the Constitution and the laws. It has protested against the exercise of arbitrary power, the suppression of free speech and a free press, the invasion of the liberty of the citizen, and generally against all violations of the funda mental law of the nation. It does protest against conducting the war for the overthrow instead of the support of the Constitution— for the subjugation and extinction of States, instead of their restoration to the Union. In a word, the Democratic party is simply true to itself and its past history. It stands fast by the Constitution and the Union, against all attacks, whether from secession at the South or Abolitionism at the North. It fights in defence of our nationality, as established by our fathers, against all enemies. This is the head and front of its offending. And this is denounced by a venal and corrupt press, by arrogant and usurping officials, by windy orators and by heated partisans as "treason!" "If this be treason, make the most of it."— The traitor is he who is unfaithful to the Constitution, and that brand belongs upon the foreheads of those who make these as saults upon Democrats. iii ' The Me'city election at Hartford, Ct. resulted in the triumph of the Democratic candidates by majorities ranging from 319 to 434 votes. The vote was the largest ever polled.

WASHINGTON CITY STYLE-DIAMONDS AND WHISKEY.-A Washington correspondent of the Independent says : "There was a sight to be seen in broad daylight a few days ago, in front of the Presidential mansion, which gave those who witnessed it a shocking idea of the onward strides which the vice of in temperance has madela good society during the last few years. A woman clad in richest and most fashionable garments, with dia monds flashing from her slender fingers in the slant Western sunshine, sat upon the stone balustrade, unable to proceed on her homeward walk without betraying herself. - At last she rose and started on, swaying to and fro, and yet soon- rested again, utterly unable to proceed. The carriage of a for eign minister lamed by—the poor woman was noticed—and it turned, stopped, took in the lady, and carried her to her luxurious home. Fur the lady is wealthy and occu pies a high social position, but she was drunk in the streets of Weshington!" SorMr. Lincoln told Wendell Phillips last January that the issuing of that proclamation of emancipation was the greatest folly of his life. So Phillips stated last week, at the Music Hall In New Haven. The Tribune contradicts this statement, but the Herald correspondent telegraphs, that other witnesses corroborate Mr. Phillips; so that it appears that while it has been made a test of "loyalty" to endorse that un constitutional pronunciamento, the Presi dent himself condems it now as he did eleven days before he issued it. Will it not be amusing when the Leaguers join with the Radicals of Missouri in berating the President as a "Copperhead ?" 11.16,The Nashville Union says : "We nev er knew an avowed rebel whose mouth was not full of references to, and praises of, the. laws, and Constitution." It is pretty good evidence of treason, then, to talk of laws and constitutions, We have been aware, for some time, that this was a fact. Still we have been rather disposed to think well of laws and Constitutions. Perhaps in these latter days, when men are so much better than they used to be, such things can be dis pensed with. The radicals are trying the ex periment, so that we shall have a demonstra tion of the matter before long. We suggest, however, that they had better let these laws and Constitutions stand. The few sinners left in the world may need these restraints, if the saints do not. air If there is any feeling in our country as extensive as the atmosphere, or deep as the ocean, as immovable as the mountains, it is this : that our nation shall not be cut in two ; we will rather give the last child we have, the last penny we possess.—[Beechees Speech at Glasgow.

In deed, we don't see why, by the use of such means, the triumphs were not more signal. oft."Do you know why so many of our Democrats enjoining the Republican party," asked a Democrat of a friend the other day ?

(!) sirAn Ohio, Abolition stamper, while making a speech, paused in the midst of it, and exclaimed, "Now gentlemen, what do you think ?" Instantly a man rose in the assem bly, and, with one eye, partially closed, mod estly replied, "I think, sir, I do indeed, sir, I think if you and I should stump the country together we would tell more lies than any other two men in the country, sir, and I'd not say a word during the whole time, sir." -Our Government land costs one dollar an acre on an average, and champagne two dollars a bottle. Many a man dies landless who during his life has swallowed a fertile township, trees and all, So a young man who smokes cigars and tobacco to the amount of one dollar per week, wastes a farm of fifty acres each year, which in a short time would be worth a thousand by its mere rise in value. BARELY POSSIBLE.—The "National Intelli gencer" ventuNs to express the opinion that "something is necessary to fit an officer for high miltary command besides a fervent zeal for battle, and that even anti-shivery opin ions of the most undoubted intensity are not always a guarantee of the highest military capacity." This may be barely possible, but the assertion is certainly a bold one. It's author's "loyalty" should be examined into by the Union League. cy-There are forty-two Sovereigns in Eu rope.—{Exchange.

No DUAFr IN INDIANA.—The Indianopolis Journal publishes two columns of extracts from the Indiana county papers, all of which show that the enthusiasm for volunteering in that State has reached a very high pitch.— The counties are generally paying a bounty of $lOO iu adition to that offered by the Gov ernment and, in some cases, increasing the pay of the volunteer $lO per month.

Speaking of him it says : "Does ho not wear Kentucky like a collar to this day ? A dog with a collar tights slow !" This respectful language is from the pen of Rev.
