DAILY POST. PITTSBURGH : TUESDAY, JANUARY 26, 1864' ELECTION IN LOUISIANA. Gen. BANKS has ordered an election to take place in Louisiana, in pursuance, as he - announces, of authority vested in him . . . •by the President of the United States." Thie electidn is to be conducted on the '!one.tenth" principle, and that is to be constituted as the managers of the con test may see St. A New Orleans correa• ponclent-alltt*g to jt lemarks: "The great object of this movement is to ineure ; and -perpetuate power. With the Itirtistration • it is Wei greatest -move yet made on the chess-board, for when once carried into effect it will be impossi- ble during the next quarter of a century to displace Its friends from the control ling offices of the "country. In every south ern state where the federal armies may have a foot-hold, state Governments are to be organized, the voters of which are to be only those who can pronounce the Ibibholeth of the administzation. The ala I Wiirifteitfift efietilelitid now because it is the most distasteful, and will exclude all but the most extreme of radicals and the most debased and cringing of the sub- .iugate,/," A tenth of such materials—calling in the aid of sojourning teamsters, sutlers speculators and even soldiers, it neces. , nary, to make up the number—will send representatives to Congress, elect a legis lature which will chose Senators and e! ec tors for President of the United States. It will come to pasa_in, those days that FATHER ALRARAX will have the nnan moos vote of all the Southern States which will be represented on the total population basis by this vote, not only in the electoral college, but in Congress and in the Senate. With this assurance of strength in•his bands, with his "rotten boroughs" to offset against any opposition wiirch may be made factiously against him by New York er Pennsylvania, at any other Northern State, he can tri umphantly meet his enemies at the pone secure of victory. When Mr. SEWARD de clared that Mr. LINCOLN must remain President until he was elected by the whole I Unitel Staten, many thought he fore- 1 shadowed a violent retention of the presidential office as a "military meal nre;" but it is now evident that it was, intended by shams—which should repre sent Republican Governments, in which the men, stipendiaries of the Government and paupers fed on the refuse of its camps, are the puppets which appear to put them in motion—to cause the ostensible vote of the Southern States to be cast for him. The war was begun for party purposes ; it baa been waged for party purposes, and its early close is prevented that party pnr poses may be attained. The great object now sought is to prevent the Southern • people from returning to the Union fold in sufficient numbers to control the elec tion in their several States. By placing before them a degrading and unnecessary condition to their exercise of the elective franchise this end is attained. With military Governors and department com manders, and the whole civil and military authority of the administration to prevent any dissentient expression of opinion, 'there is little likelihood that any will have utterance; thus in subjugating the Swab he also controls the North, and that, too, by the Republican expedient of the ballot box. Every man is a rebel who does not vote to sustain all the war measures One of these now is to enable these new fangled Southern State Governments to control the closely balanced divisions at the North. THE ONE•T ERTH IDEA Dr. BRONSON of 13BoxsoN's Review, the great Catholic theologian and controver- Ballet, who has for some time been a shining light in the Abolition party, has brought her great powers of logic to the consideration of President Lllicotar's plan for reconstructing the Union. The learn• ed reviewer is, as usual, entirely remorse less. He tears old Ass's scheme into tatters and scatters it to tfie winds. He conclusively reasons that a State with nine•tenths of its population disloyal and excluded from the ranks of its political people, evidently could not sustain itself and discharge its proper functions as a State in the Union. It would have to be held up and nursed by the government, and thus would be open ed the door to political intrigue and cor ruption, exceeding anything we have yet known. Its representatives in Congress would be virtual nominees of the admin• istration, and the congressional districts would be only so many "rotten boroughs" owned by the Government. No election would or could be free. Besides, , with here and there an individual exception, the men who would take the oath and be allowed to vote would be the weakest and least energetic portion of the population. The portion of the Southern people who have the most character and are the best fitted to govern and look after the inter ests of the State or the Union are precise. ly those who would be excluded by the test oath. The majority of the voters would be composed of Government em ployes, adventurers from other States, with very little honesty or principle of any sort, and without any permanent in• Wrest in the State or connection with it. We cannot underiftand why one Union man in South Carolina, Tennessee, or Louisiana should count for ten in Mass achusetts, New YOrk, or Pennsylvania- We know no reason why they should have any vote at all, while the great, the over. whelming majority of the population are in rebellion. "But that majority are po ltically dead. Then do not count them as a basis of representation. Abstract them from the whole population given by the census of 1860, and take only the re• mainder as the r6presentative population, You cannot do that legally? The State is the State, and you must count its whole population or none? Then do you not see owns inequality, and ribimrdity of pre timdinfriiis they are States in the Union, witlie.ll-their , fethstel ,rigthts unimpaired? itOieciVer, "the Union men in the eleven seceded , " Btateef Are not vitizens of the United States.

The Supreme, TFEE PITTSBURGH POST: TUB; DAY MORNING, JA NTT T! Y 26, 1864. Court have decided gat tliewar we are carrying on is not a simple war against in• surgent individuals, but a territorial civil war, which makes every manoromik, and child in the rebellions territory, an enemy. The interdict must be reniol*Vm that territory before these Unionigen base to be enimies, and that cannot be removed so long as the law of Congress of the 18th ofJuly, 1881, remains nnrepealed, and the great majority are still hostile, with out a gross abuse of executive power. We do not know that even these Union men in the organized territories under the Government of the United Stated. And why should they, any more than these, have a federal reprsentation and an electoral vote: QUARTERLY TRADE CIRCULAR We have before us the January number of this invaluable paper published and edited by GEORGE H. THURSTON, esq., of this city, and devoted to general and spe cial statistics, manufactures and com merce. This paper has now been before the public for more than two years, and seems to have more reputation abroad than at home, which is not at all flatter• ing to a great manufacturing centre, which has been constantly craving a fit ex positor of its wealth and rapidly increas ing trade. Mr. THURSTON has at least the confidence of our leading manufacturers and business men and has thus been en abled to place before the public correct sta tistics of our leading products and valliab!e information upon other matters affecting our general interests. A tolerable amount of city pride if not a direct pecuniary interest on the part of manufacturers, would justify a suitable salary to such a man as Mr. THURSTON, who would time be enabled to devote hie whole time to the collection of facts and their publication at home and abroad, giving to Pittsburgh and its tributaries the value and importance they deserve. Ln the language of the day and which everybody understands, "it would pay." Revision of the State Revenue No subject likely to come before the present session of our Pennsylvania Leg• islature is of more real importance than the revision of the Revenue laws of the commonwealth, with a view to increasing the financial resources of the State. This has long been sorely needed, and the pressing necessities incident to the events of the war have'at length brought things io a crisis when action must be had. It is plain that no relief is to be looked for by means of any reduction of expend ituree, because the machinery of the State is already very simple and expensive, and the demands arising, and likely to arise, are consequent upon the duties of the State in the pending war, and other unavoidable causes. In the affair of the interest on our State debt our expenses have increased heavily by the difference in value between specie and currency, and if the interest is to be paid in specie, so long as this difference continues the means must . be raised in some other way than by equee7ing the State banks. Then we have clamorous demands that the State shall offer bounties to volunteers, and demands for payment of damages suffered during the rebel in vasions, &c. The first thing to be done it the way o a change is to revise the 'node of asses: merit and collection of State taxes. It i the opinion of gentlemen in the interior, who have studied this subject, that the revenue can be largely increased by this means alone. The State loses heavily in the assessment of property, and still more heavily in the costly, cumbrous and an tiquated machinery for collection. Far better systems may be easily devised, and will work a great reform in our State finances. But it is undeniable that additional taxation is necessary, and the embarrass ing question is as to the new sources of revenue, considering the searching inter nal revenue system of the national gov ernment and the taxation for local pur- poses in many sections. Corporations have been hitherto regarded as such fair game that it is difficult to see how that source can be better explored. Still it is believed that in this every matter taxes may be levied which will yield much money. It has been suggested by shrewd financiers that any new taxation in this direction should be general and sweeping in its character, and be upon the gross receipts of railroads, canals, banks, in surance oompaniea, coal companies, &c. We suggest these points merely to call the attention of our readers and thinkers to what is proposed, in order that what ever information they may be in posses sion of on the subject, or whatever plans may occur to them, should be placed i❑ such a way as to be accessible to those who are now charged with the decision of the matter.—North American. Obituary, DEATH OF AN OLD PRINTKR.—It iB with regret we record the decease of John M. Elliott, mi., the oldest printer, at the time of his death, in the United States. He was prominent and much respected in his business, having peen connected with the old New York American and a num ber of other publications. Daring his long career in business in this City, of nearly fifty years, he was noted for 'AM honest, straightforward course, exhibiting an in tegrity and a devotion that was unparal leled. As a matter of history, interesting to old citizens, it may be stated that Mr. E. was the only survivor of the celebrated Miranda expedition fited out in 1804 in this city, against the Spanish Main, he, with the late Mr. Thomas Gill, of the Evening Star, and others, having been enveigled, by representations that they were going to New Orleans as printers. Mr. E. was long confined in a Spanish prison. Until a few years ago he was ac• tively engaged in the printing business in this city, but his health failing him, through age, he retired to his home in Jersey City, where he died on the 21st inst. at the age of eighty years. A CERTAIN Scotch friend of ours, who is not a member of the temperance sOdiety, be ing asked by a dealer to puchase some fine old Jamaica rum, dryly answered, "To tell you the truth, sir, I canna sat I'm very fond of rum ; for if I tak main than six tumblers, it's very apt to give a body the headache." A2f old Scottish woman, wishing to anus the river Forth, hesitated to enter the ferry-boat, Weans." a "torm wee !tell.. the beetteaa asked she*hul not trust to Providence. "Na, na," said she, " I will na trust in Providence as horns there is a bridge at Stirling. The Oil Bupply ol4„ he Venango From the Oil City Regater It hats been eonie two moithe - sines ti well of any size has been atrial upon Oil. Creek. Some pardon are becoming con!' siderable exercised. ahotit...Lkti Matter, yet we do not feel that there litany jest grounds for serious alarm. The daily yield has decreased in the past few weeks very materially. The yield six weeks ago was estimated at 6,500 barrels. The yield today will hardly reach 4,000 barrels. The past few weeks have been very unfa vorable for the producing business, the weather being too cold, in consequence of which but few cf the pumping wells have been in operation. It may be pos- Bible that the excessive drought of last summer exercised some influence. For it is a fact patent to all miners, that the wells produce;more when the atmosphere is moist and heavy than when it is clear and light. The reason of this we think is, that the gas which forces the oil to the surface generates more rapidly in wet or moist weather, and possesses greater pro• pelling force, than in clear weather. Such appears to be the case any how. How correct our theory is we leave to philos• ophers to determine. Bat it is clear that some measures must be taken to keep up the supply, if the means heretofore need should fail. The past season has not been so productive in its results as many were led to expect. The Noble and the Maple Shade Wells, are the only considerable ones that were struck and continue to flow now. Several others of smaller size were struck, but being in , ,erfered with by other wells in the immediate vicinity, did not amount to much. This was especially the case upon the Story Farm. No less than five wells apparently connected, any one of which would have flowed 250 barrels per day, have been rendered practically value less, from the fact that the taking up of the tubing from any one of these would cense the stoppage of the other four by flooding them with water. The Phillips Woodford Wells, both of good size, say 300 to 400 barrels, on the Tarr Farm, at Ifected each other similarly. The new well of H. 0. Filkins, on the Blood Farm, affects several wells in its immediate vi cinity, flooding them with water when ever the tubing is removed from the well. We could cite numerous other instances of the same kind, in localities along the creek, but these will suffice. From this we are inclined to think that the wells4are becoming too numerous along the Darrow valley where the oil is obtain• ed. Many wells have been bored to a depth of five hundred feet or more. and failing to obtain oil have been abandoned. The wastage of gas and the water courses which have been opened in these, have produced the results we have spoken of upon the producing wells in their imme. diate neighborhood. If, after cleaning cut and fixing prop erly these wells, that have been bored down to the depth c f say 5211 feet, they are not found productive, but two plans seem feasible to us, in order to keep up the supply. The first is to stop up the no producing wells, by putting down a seed• bag, attached to inch-tubing, or a sucker rod, below the water courses and effect ually close these, so that they will not in terfere with the producing wells. Thus, all interference by either water or west ing gas would he avoided. The abandon ed wells of course would have to Le de clared forfeited by the land owner granting the original lease. Land owners, in grant ing leases should make it a specification that all wells bored to a ceriain depth, and abandoned for a certain time, should be forfeited, and then have them stopped up. We have every reason to believe that this plan would be au etreetual one. It Is worthy of a trial, at any rate. The second plan to to bore the wells which have produced oil, such as the Sherman, Empire, Van Slyke and others, deeper. '1 ass plan has many advocates, and has been successful in several :nstat.• ces. The latest Inetat.L.e, of this kind is the Lloyd Weil, which is nptteed in an - other column. his welt was first bored and struck oil, some three years ago. Not being property managed, it was soon rendered non productive. The depth of the well was then 486 feet. During the past season, Mr. Lloyd bored it down to a depth of about sixty feet farther. He is now rewarded by an huedr , 'I barrel well. which in the course nt a few weeks will reward him for all Ls expense and labor. Doubtless many other wells could be rendered equally as productive by the employment of similar means. There is as good reason to believe in the existence of a fourth, fifth, or in fact any number of sandstones, where oil can be obtained, as there was in existence of the second or third. And we cannot see why it is not just as reasonable to suppose that oil will be obtained at the depth of one, or even two thousand feet, as it was at a depth of from one to five hundred feet. From the frequent striking of mud veins, it is assigned by some that the oil supyly is becoming exhausted, and that these mud•veins are the bottom or bed of the deposit. It so, there is morn reason to bore deeper, and see if other deposits of oil cannot be found still below these. We should be glad if some movement. of this kind should be put on foot, and would be happy to hear from our oil miners, of their practical experince in order that we can publish their views for the general benefit. In conclusion we reassert that we do not feel alarmed for the failure of the present supply but think it would be advisable to take all necessary measures to secure a permanent supply for the future. Fox's Challenge The challenge of Assistant Secretary Fox has satisfied no one but the North American, and even that organ of loyalty must be a little disconcerted by a letter from Mr. E. N. Dickinson which appear ed in yesterday's World. That gentleman writes as follows : "The effect which this bold challenge has naturally produced is, that the Sec retary at least believes that he has some sea going steamer, made on the plans peculiar to the navy, which is faster than the fastest ship in the world, and that he is anxious to subject his belief to a test. If he did not mean that, he has been very careless in hie language. "If, however, he did mean to convey that impression to the public by the ohal lenge, then it is the most transparent de ception which ever bore the sanction of high position, and ought to destroy what ever confidence yet remains in its author. The fact is that the Eutaw, the vessel he proposes to run against the Adriatic, is not a man-of war or a sea going vessel at all, but a large aide-wheel ferry-boat, with a rudder at each et,d,built to go uplagoons where an ordinary vessel could not turn round, of light draft, full of boilers and engines ; constructed as all the Brooklyn ferry-boats are, with an inclosed engine, and with an independent cut off exactly like that used by the Vanderbilt, invented and patented by Mr. Stevens ; whereas, the man of-war, whose slowness has been the subject of 'charges against the Navy Department,' are built without an inde pendent cut—off, and in consequence can't go nine miles an hour. She is the mate of the Agawam, which attempted to carry soldiers out of Boston up the coast, but 'Could not donblethe cape, and was com pelled to return, au account of which was published in all the papers on the 18th of December, as follows : BOSTON, Thursday, December 17. -Tie guigkeet!

Besides this, hit::; Dickinson says of these "ferry- boats' are'nFirotaiitt.OrXh` th at en tn e r d an ouar y nov a iptiryose they %loud: That-in Fpportion to the coal burned they are the slowest boats in the country. r Third. That for the uses for which they were made—to go up rivers—they are good for nothing, because a twelve-pound shot would atop them anywhere." This should be enough, but he adds an offer to bet $5OOO (for the benefit of the Sanitary Commission) that not oa of Secretary Welles' sea-going steamers cam make nine miles an hour. To which, the North American says what? The Piety of a Republican Senator 0o e J. J. Owen, a member of the Cal• ifornia Senate, is the editor of St. Jose Mercury, in that State. On Thanksgiving Day he penned an editoral article, in which he said : "All who believe in an overruling Providence are called upon this day, by the President of the United States, to lay aside their temporary avocations, and unite in offering up to that Being the tri bute of thanksgiving and praise for His many blessings. We have cause for abun dant joy in that our:armies have been able to kill a goodly number of traitors during the past, year, and to send their unshrived souls to hell, where it is;to be hoped that the billows of remorse will wash over them for several ages. We have reason to be thankful that the Army of the Potomac is expected soon to cross the Rapidan with ten days rations, and hopeful that it may not return before the rations are exhaus ted. We ought to bless his holy name for the invention of Greek fire, gunpowder, and ten•inch shells, for these things will have their holy uses in elevating the hu man race." Owen is probably graduating for a poßt ical preacher, -and who may become the compeer of such pious men as the Rev. Starr Ring and Rev. Henry Ward Beecher. What Lincoln's Proclamation wi From the New York Round Table Not only the overthrow of the rebellion as a military power, but the complete sub jugation of the Southern people, until they are so utterly crushed and humbled as to be willing to accept life on any terms, is the essential condition of the President's scheme. It may therefore prolong the war; and alter the war is substantialy end ed, it may defer the day of reunion and peace. It connot be doubted that the President contemplates all this, and that in his mind, the removal of slavery beirg considered the most essential condition of the most desirable and permanent peace, be felt J ustified in incurring great evils for the sake of a greater ultimate good. In plain English we are informed, that in order to abolish slavery, the war is to be prolonged, and the day of the restore Lion of the Union deferred. THE New York "Tribune" in an article advocating the right of negroes to vote. says- "What! do you hold that every ne gro should vote" No,nor every white. We don't believe that men who prey upon the community, for instance; have any natural or moral right to vote. Nor any one whoss vices a❑d crimes render him a toe to the public weal. Nor any one whops ignorance or incapacity renderF him more likely to do evil than good by voting." Ir, relation to this the New York "Dui, Book" says there is no mistaking the im port of this. It is &newspaper official pre announcement of a coming act by the party in power, to drive from the ballot ' box in this country every Irishman, Ger ' man, and indeed every Democrat, who cannot be suborned nor intimidated to vote the abolition ticket:. .IEADER, DO YOU HAVE USE Yeast or Baking Powder ?
