The rebel revenue for their l G fiscal year has, according tu Mr. Mem.njinueb's report, been four millions from taxation, and four hundred millions from tho print ing press.

The Rev. Walter J. Qlarteks, of the St. Lawrence Catholic Church, in York* ville, N.

An edict from the Provost Marshal General proclaims that incipient consump tion is not a disability that exempts a con script from military service. Was there ever such an outrage on humanity, medi cal rule, and common s' nse ? To con demn a man with the seeds of consump tion in his lungs, to the hardship, priva tion and exposure of a soldier’s life, is simply to commit official murder.

THE PITTSBURGH POST: MONDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 21. 1863. THE CO MIS© BllNlCmii ELEC We have been requested by a number-of Democrats to call a meeting of the party, for to morrow (Tuesday) evening, to take into consideration the best course to pur sue in regard to the coming municipal election. The meeting will, therefore, take place at the Democratic Headquar ters, corner Fifth and Smithfield streets. If the meeting decide upon calling a convention, it can fix on Saturday even ing next for the primary meetings ; there will then be plenty of time left for can vassing before the day of election. Be sides candidates for Mayor, Controller and Treasurer, we ought to have Counciltick ets in every ward. The ward politicians shouid see, too, that we have candidates fur J udges and Inspectors of the elections. By neglecting th-ae preliminary move menta, iu many of our wards and districts, the Democracy have suffered very mate rially. We need only refer to the vote in the First Ward, at the late Gubernatorial election, aa proof of this statement. There the Abolitioniats had the whole board of officers, clerksand all, and thecoosquence wa3 that they sunk one hundred votes giv en for Jadge Woodward, and supplied their places with a like number of Ct utin ballots. Let the meeting to-murrow evening attend to these matters by sag gest'.rg full ticket, in all the ward*, ‘or the election of ward officer:-. THE NEXT PBKVIDiMV The New York He raid is slill engaged iu the laudable business of President making, and General Grant is the lucky man. Instead, however, of the Herald's articles makiog him President, they will, we fear, be the means of his removal (rom the command of the Southwestern army. Heretofore, whenever a General became successful and popular he was re removed, and the same fate will overtake Grant if the Administration once begins to think him a formidable rival for the! succession. Wenpei t. Phillips, a year ago, informed the country that the present Administration was hot a commi:tc-° to superinted the next Presidential election, arid he knew what he was saying. But we eaunot account for the Herald' 2 aban doning ‘ ‘honest old Abe;' it may be that Mrs. Lincoln has cut Mrs. Bennett, by not calling upon her during her late vipit (to Gotham. At all events the Herald has I dropped the old inker at Washington, and baa taken hold of the st?rto and succrrsfnl soldier. Gen. Grant. The following are some of the Herald's reasons for wni6t ling Old Abe down the wind, which the read .-r will perceive are altogether true. “To go no farther back than the present time, see how Mr. Linton has bec-n hand and foot by the party which ho rep resents, and from which he hr.? not the moral courage to cut loose, and see how he ha 3 been pulled this way and that way, forced to eat his own words, compelled to Bhift shout like a wsatherc. c-k. and bullied into an exhibition of continual inconsistency in hi« forlorn and pit table attempt to do what be consid ered his duty to the various cliques which have surrounded h.m. First, be repudiated Fremont, then he sustained him, and then he removed him First ho stood by McCi.eli.4N, then he allowed him to be persecuted, then he defended him, and then he sent him to New -Jersey, First ho said hv would never interfere with slavery, and now he talks about issuing a proclamation making abolition the basis of reunion First he removed Generals for proclaim mg emancipation, and then he issued an emancipation proclamation. At first hi* called this proclamation “a Port's bull against the comet," then “the mest foolish act of his life,’' and now he de clares that it is a great military measure and that he will never recall it. But wo have not the space at present to enumer ate all the deplorable instances of this grave fault, which # seeniß inseparable from a political President, which has sadly prolonged the war, and which will cause it to be interminable if another sort of man, independent of political far* tions and true to the constitution, be not soon placed in the President’s chair.' Melanoholy Affair. The eventß attending the demise of Thomas Scrivener, jr., yesterday, are of a peculiarly distressing character. Uu tie previous evening he attended this fair at Wesley Chapel, where he appeared in more than his usual spirits. He returned borne, kissed his sisters, bade them good night, and retired to his room. In a few minutes thereafter the discharge of a gun was heard, ana running to his room, his Bisters found him lying npon the foot of his bed, holding the muzzle of his double barreled fowling piece to his left breast, where the entire charge, composed of sev enteen buckshot, had entered, passing through the left lung. When questioned, he cooly stated that the act was intention al. He retained his reason to the last, recognizing and conversing with his friends. The cause of this sad event was, doubtless, as stated by himself, a settled desire to leave this world of trouble and disappointment. He was a young man of unusual talents, and was a graduate ot 'Harvard law school, and a member of the Washington bar. In his life and habits he was most exemplary, and in all his dealings perfectly upright and strictly con scientious. He lingered in great agony for nineteen honrß. — Washington Star, The Holstein Question—Threat ened War in Europe. The newß from Germany is very threat cning. The German States appear strong y disposed to support the Duke of An gustenburg against Denmark. It is not believed that Denmark will yield without a rosort to arms. If war once breaks out on tbe continent, the probabilities are that the great powers will become involved in it. The London Times says : Denmark is getting ready for war. Her □aval vessels are ordered into iußtaut ser vice, and the Minister of War has order ed out all the soldiers belonging to the corps which garrison Holstein, Schleswig and Northern Jutland. The King was to hold a grand review of the army on the 29th ult. Thß garrison of Kiel has been considerably reinforced, and all the local ities in the neighborhood of the town are occupied by soldiers from the Danish is lands. It is also announced that some Danish ships of war, with troops od board, are expected in the bay of Kiel. Tbe Copenhagen cabinet appears determined to be in a position not only to repel any attack from Germany, bat to pat down the movements which may arise in the duchies. IHK njNMJ.LSVILLE RAILROAD. To thL'Juor of the Daily Post . Id a question of go much importance to this community as the completion of the Conneilaville road, it is desirable that no mystery should he permitted to envelop the proceedings gi the managers, nor mis representations be allowed to pass current on the streets. Having some knowledge oi the course pursued by thc.-c iu charge oi this prop erty, 1 ask your courtesy,io allow me to present them to the public through the columns cl a paper that always advocates Pittsburgh interests,and defendaPittsburgh rights. Seven years ago the then Managers of* the Coniiuilavilie Railroad Company fail ing to obtain tun means for the farther prosecution of the work, full upon the ex pedient ot matting i r . a Baltimore enter prise and putting the road in charge of Baltimoreans, expecting thereby that the capital and enterprise c-i that city wonld so identify itseli with the Company, as to carry the road torward to immediate com pletion. Ar par: t.t the plan, a mortgage to the amount of oup million of dollars was made in favor of the city of Balti more to secure ter her a loan ot a like amount of her bonds to the Pittsburgh & Connellsvilie Railroad Company; and fur ther to assure the citizens of Baltimore ol a faiiliiul and judicious expenditure of i means and the certain cotnpletiou of the I read, an eminent Civil Ki gineer of ifcat city was elected President of the Compa ny. He has been re elected each year siuce, uecaune it was hoped and expected that he and his Baltimore friends would complete the road. But hope has built no road, and the late L-lecticu shows that stockholders were no longer willing to content themselves with “nope deferred” but want some live young man in the man agement who will work with (fleet. In the late Board were some of our most active and intelligent young bußiuc-ea men, who, feeling the* importance to Pitts burgh of another eastern outlet for its buciucss, determined on an effort, duriug the present period ot an easy money mar ket. to complue the road without looking to Baltimore for any further material aid, only asking that she waivn her lien in favor cf those who may furnish the money, as she has heretofore promised. They were encouraged to ctfort by the promise of assietarcr 'rerr. the Western roads. As a prr-iimir.ary movement a committee consisting of Messrs. I) avid eon. Blair, Cuugbty, Bargain and L'dwerth, was appointed to vi»r. Baltimore for the purpo* 5 * of arranging with the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, a contract tor the ioteicbaug.* of businesa between the two roads, which c inti act was to speci fy the terms and conditions upon which the threugh bos'neM sh.eiid be done. It wap believed that pu- h a contract was due to the Com.f-llsvi’te ro. d, and woul l ma tenaily a*.d in Making cuntracis for money , and :>r i's oompb-tir-n. In pursuance ot i their nppe in: -t.t th* committee visaed Baltin*.- r,‘ a\ I aduressed ft letter to the cdbi t-rs or. the (ui je. t ot iheir mission on ih;. i.:h i!

Cumberland, or some cth*r point east ot i:..- mountains it shall fall under their ftbnrlute control ; that 4 s. shall become a b-arer ct wood and drawer of water to ; v- Baltimore and Ohio Company. We bear i i th** recent liberal offer of the Baltimore an \ Ohio Company to aid in completing the Connellsvillr road ; whßt does amount to v President Garrett, in hie letter on this tubi-ct, hmJ that " wnen r* suitable vcutruot is made Cm completing the (Ymnellsville road "he ie prepared to “ rev. ominnnJ aid frou his company to the extent ot a million ot dol lars—a contrsc: that would suit.’’ Mr. Garrett might not suit any body else • and m'ght be very unseeable for Pittsburgh or tor the Connells vi!!e Railroad Comfiany. 1 hen, too, Mr. Garrett does not promise LLc* million of dollars : he only promises to 11 recommend ” to hi 3 l»oaid ithirty three members - tc aid, - in what way?) to the extent ol the million. Perhaps Mr. Garrett knows that hia Board would not adopt his recommendations! in view of the course of the Baltimore and Ohio road managers, this '‘recommendation’ 1 ot aid by the President can hardly have been considered as anything more than a “ tub to the whale. 5 ' Now as to the election controversy. The Pennsylvania stockholders of a Penn sylvania corporation applied to the Le gislature at the Inst session to restore the charter to the condition in which it was originally granted as to tho manner of voting, and which manner of voting is conformable to the rule upon which all our Bank Directors are chosen. We have heard no objection to this provision by a single Pennsylvania Director, or a single Pennsylvania stockholder, and it is now quite evident, in tho condition of this company, that such a provision woaid have been very salutary. And prevented the present embroglio. The only objection to restoring this provision to the charter comes from the B. & 0. Railroad Compa | ny r aod which they resist because they ! wish the unrestricted control of the entire corporation to the exclusion of every oth or stockholder largo aud small, many or few, whose views of policy differa from theirs. With a view of making assurance doubly sure, that company applied to the I : . B. Court and obtained an order as to the manner of voting at the recent election and upon this order they expected to elect a Board to do nothing. Unfortu nately for their ambitious view, the inspec tors of the election conformed to the strict order ot the ouurt, which reduced the Baltimore and Ohio Road vule to 7(H) which, antortunateiy again, ihe attorney ot the road declined to vote, 0 o that a progressive go ahead beard was elected. But io the Baltimore arid* Ohio icad iu equity entitled to vote this stock in a con troversey such as now exißta ? We think Dot. Ihe letter of J. H. Sewell, esq., a director, and attorney for the Connellsvilie Company, recently published, shows how the Baltimore and Ohio Company acquired this stook, and the purpose for wmoh it was acquired. It was bought at a venture for fifty cents per share, or one per cent, on cost, for the purpose of gobling up the whole concern. If the Baltimore and Ohio Cwi.pAny had contributed the per value t ibY 000, ot tbia stock, to actually aid iu building the OonnellsviUe road, she might go into c mrt with an honest face, but to ask the court to give her control on a doubtful title, to atocksoldon a common execution,forjone per cent, of its par value, is the brink of sublime impudence. Mr. *Latrobe, the President of the Connellsville road, and who represents the Baltimore and Ohio road's interest, intimates that this stock was bought by that company to prevent its falling into the hands of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, and some of our oily papers have been the echo of this “ stop thief ” cry. We know that the Pennsylvania Railroad Company have never had the slightest design of at tempting to get the control of the Con* nellsville road, and this attempt of the Baltimore and Ohio Company to shield its ambitious views by interposing the sup posed unpopularity of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, is putting a low esti mate upon the intelligence of this commu nity. With such a Board of Directors as has just been elected to mauage the Con nellsville road for the ensuing year, there is no danger of ita being pawned out, sold out, or in any way put under the control of either the Baltimore and OhiOj or Pennsylvania Railroad companies.
