It comprehends more than many pretentious volumes. • - * ' Moderate poverty is a most esodhntrestrain ing influence. As vise and crime flourish in greatest degree at the extremes of ‘Wealth and indigence, so the rarest exhibitions of virtue ■will be observed in those coiSm'ahitles where the people are moderately independent. ' The philosophy of this appears in the fact that the force of temptation decreases as we reseda from the extremes of poverty end wealth. 'The .miserably poor resort to crime for temporary gain or relief,.and the inordinatelytlch become vicious from tbe excesses' which nature visits upon the idle and unrestrained. The middle class, in circumstances,, eat their frugal viand* seasoned with labor. They have no time to ex pend in trifling, and the constant endeavor to maintain a well-earned independence precludes the likelihood of habits of excess. The same rale holds good with nations. Ex perience goes to show that great material pros perity and national integrity do not increase-in like ratio. Superabundant wealth does not be ■■get a higher appreciation of the charms of vir tue. Our own country is an example of the fact practically worked out. The first half-cen tury of our national existence was a struggle with various forms of adversity. We had the disability,and debts of three wars to weigh us down. Our material resources were undevelop ed, we had little available capital, oar com merce' limited by competition with that of our formidable antagonist, Great Britain. But du ring that period of constant straggle with ad versity the standard of common integrity was borne high. The people wero conicntei and happy. There was a broader pattern of cloth provided for the mantle of human charity than has been used for the last thirty years before the advent of this groat war. . Taking this view, of the matter, we are not of those wno look with feat or regret upon the magnitude of the public debt; present and prosi peotive. The debt will have several excellent effects. It will constrain to the exercise of economy in the administration of the govern ment, which, in a season of profound peace, ttudet Mr. THE TIOGA COUNTY AGITATOR. It will also beget and fix habits of economy j upon the people at large. It trill weaken the I : Tice of avarice, and finally emancipate hand led aof thousands from its hateful thrall. It is undeniable that money-getting for the lore of accumulating, has been a~prominent char acteristic of the American people in this latter age, It is well to accumulate;,but whoever aecumulates-ihat-he may purchase social po?i jion thereby, the richest men in town,”- or that he may in dulge in.the superfluities of cumulates for any of these objects, aims low/ grnbs under ground like a mole, strikes'at the -he St-interests pf EOcieiy, and- d\varfs~ hicnself below the stature of a man. JCXY 27, -1864, We were slrnolUwitb'the remark of a whiter] haired old man in conversation a few days ago. j “ I take great pleasure in paying .ray taxes to i support the Government,” said he, " and am j willing to pay-double the amount If necessary We present bifia as a specimen of a healthy ci{-1 uen. The burden falls upon the shoulders best j able to bear it; upon the man whose income j exceeds a frugal living; and upon the man o? prosperous tnonufaeluriug ■' and commercial i relations ; upon the prolWions and mercan- j tile interesle. We comprehend that it will be 1 said that the fas must finally come out of the, consumer, So he it. ‘All are consumers of staples, and bear the tax according to the quan-, tityconsuraad. But to offset this we .have the worker demanding and receiving increased wa ges for his labor. This restores the equilibri um to sacifa degree that the burden falls as : nearly equal as legislation can make it.- - | Waria a terrible scourge, hut not, we main- ’ tain, because it increases the common debt; With a debt of .$1,700,000,DG0-owed to its own oitirens, tbs Government- is this day stronger by manly fold than ever before. Find a croak-' ing, -snarling, faultfinding man among , those who have permanent investments in national stocks if you.can 1 Hen who gamble in stocks* will grumble wh'en they want to buy at low figures. .But that ia,truaof stock-gamblers in all times. The true creditors, of the Govern ment always -work: together for its'support and encouragement. They are in a copartnership where the'interesfof r each ia.the interest of all. And it will be observed that the bitterest op ponents of the Government as administered, as well as the noisiest-grumblers about taxation, pay the least taxes, and therefore feel the har den of the public debt the least of all. It is a good thing to ask theso railers how much they pay to sustain the Government. THE .SECOND OF AUGUST is very near. Before another, number of this paper is-pub lished tho freemen of Pennsylvania will have given (to the soldiers the constitutional right to vote in their, respective camps, or have failed to give them that right. Failure can come on ly through tho criminal neglect of the Union voters. The Woodocrats are thoroughly organ ised to contest this matter at the polls all over the State.'

Or will yon say to your selves—" It will all come, out right without my vote I” We do assure, you that such a frame of mind is dangerous., ;It is suicidal.
