mb. Chase and his bank
PROJECT.
To the American statesman orjjoliti
ciari? there is nothing more, repugnant
thiik taxation. ' Our go vernments,' both
State and National have always had the
advantage over all other governments
in Christendom,* of being the cheapest
of all v Our State government derives
a largeportion. of its revenues from
taxes on the profits of banking. We
havecnorthe of the Auditor
General at-hand, which would show the
amount, realized to the State from this
source.' 5 ' But "we may note the tact
that ' tjie.interest on the State debt for
186 S, yyaa raised by assessing the State
Banks. d£ Pennsylvania which had sus

able. to 'ftj?, State Treasurer in gold—
making over two millions — this sura
was.:paid hy the Banks to the State
Treasury tfa pW as demanded, and
certificates! of , debt for the same were
issued hy the; State, and are now held by
the banks, and counted as go[7l by most of
them'in their returns to the Auditor
General, for 1801. The question im
mediately arises—Can the State afford j
to surrender her taxes on banking and i
her gold renerve* which she needs to pay J
her inte'feaj, asaesslblain time of need,
by loaoatfroni the banks she has cre
ated rd
who take Mt. Chase’s of
fers,, Will fiud out, "in dne time, whether
tlie State will sub mit to this.
WeLwill not pursue this inquiry fur
ther, r 'butwiilagaih turn to Mr. Galla
tin’s panipiiiet.
Mr.GAjxmtriii goes on to show that
Mr. Chase, “having broken the banks
[i. c. made them suspend specie pay-
not skill enough in his de
partment .to make the specie of the
country available fora sound curren

the boasted? ?un iform currency’ with
gold at 50. per. cent, premium [ say 01 ]
and green-backs at 33 per cent discount
in 3an Francisco [say 33]."
“Asearly as May, 1861,” says the
pamphlet, '“Mr Chase was earnestly
-Wfged to make a thorough appeal to the
people‘throiigh postmasters, newspapers,
&c.', in behiilf of the national loan —
“but.he s%w fit to confer upon certain
favorite agents tliut important duty,
rewarding them with a lucrative com
mission,*’which amounted to immense
sums

Bir Walter Scott, in his life of Na-
Poleon, alluding to the havoc of the
battle of Waterloo, remarks —
“The loss on the during this
dreadful battle was as the &ukb of Welling
ton, no user of truly
termed it, immense. • •#. •
Fifteen thousand men kuku and wdrifjMled,
threw half of Britain into mrinwtjng ft
Our object in q is
merely to show the ‘soffSudfe/exhffiited
by the “Iron Duke,” for the
filteen thousand of -.his army who were
killed and wounded, but who for the
half of Great Britain who wefe thrown
into mourning, because of that desperate
encounter. The Duke of Wellington
was a bred soldier, used to carnage and
blood. His rem&iks, therefore, upon
the occasion referred to, arc the more
memorable, and more worthy of being
reflected upon by every American. Fif
teen thousand men, killed and wounded
in such an obstinate battle as that of
Waterloo, is not at all unprecedented
when we reflect upon the skill of the
officers in command, and the desperate
pluck and intrepidity of the rank and
file; but the tender regard of a general
for his men who had spent all his iife in
the tented Held, and who could only
speak of broil and battle, is worthy of
emulation.
How is it with u* here in the United
States? How many times fifteen thou
sand as brave hearts as ever kissed the
dust, have gone to their long homes, and
how many wives and children are left to
mourn their untimely lkll? Gen. Meade
estimates our losses in killed alone, in
the army of tlie Potomac, at one hun
dred thousand, ami from this we can
infer our losses in the more bloody en
gagements in the southwest; and yet
our jocular President, our Cammnndrr
in-Chief,'%ho is responsible for our most
disastrous losses, instead of giieviug,
like Wellington, is quietly and suc
cessfully prosecuting hostilities for a
re election. In fact, that facetious func-
tionary appears to mouut with every
new disaster which overtakes him.
When he ordered Buunstde to ad
vance upon Lee, and fight him when
ever he could find him. the President
did endeavor to shift the responsibili
ty of that criminal niassa r re. He seem
ed troubled iu spirit, and, through Hal
lhck, succeeded in getting poor Burn
side to assume the responsibility *.»f it.
But lie soon got over the temporary ef
fect produced by that killing and maim
ing of ten thousand men. Instead of
allusion to them, and to their surviving
friends in mourning, the President, in
order to dispel any lingering recollec
tion of so important an occurrence per
mitted a ball to lie given in the White
House. The sound of revelry upon
that occasion, hushed any “compunc
tious visitings of nature," peensioned by
the murderous blundering at Freder-
icksburg.
Since that festive occasion, the Presi
dent appears to have kicked all con
science to the evil one. He has thrown
himself into the dirty pool of partizan
intrigue, determined to re-elect himself
at any cost. His secret expedition to
Florida, the other day, under the super
vision of his piivate Secretary by which
we lost fifteen hundred men and two or
three millions of dollar*, occasion no
explanation; it b but a trifling disaster
in the estimation yf those who are ic
constructing rebel States, in order to
prolong their own political existence.
Upon the hells of this Florida outrage
we have the Kilpatrick raid against
Richmond, in pursuance of an order to
go-ahead from Mr. Lincoln. In this
quixotic expedition we lost five hundred
men—a mere handful; and yet in the
face of this continual an.l increasing
blundering the Union League contractors
declare that its author should be re
elected.
Consolidation
The recent cold-blooded and brutal
murder,and the numerous outrages heiug
daily perpetrated in the two cities and
suburbs, should excite the earnest atten
tion of our citizens to immediately in
i stet upon a consolidation of our different
| municipalities for at least police pur
l-poses. Human life seems to be held
cheap, drunkenness rules the hour and
flic worst passions are let loose. What can
| t he few watchmen or day police, or the
I borough constables, do with the floating
1 element of blackguardism plainly visi
■ hie in every direction. Let there be a
; board of police lo take charge of the
j matter, tvbo shall select good men who
j should be uniformed, as in other cities,
1 and be a terror to all evil doers. Let 1
there be some action immediately. i
1 Expanses of the War and Wants
of the Government.
It is now well ascertained that the expenses of
the war and the wants 01 the Government will
require, in addition to means from other sources,
ihHt thelnternAt taAes shaft yield fully 8200,000.-
uuo for the next fiscal year. There is no dodeine
this necessity. ’
The above precious information comes
: through the leading organ of the Aboli
j t ' on party in this section, tlie Pittsburgh
; Gazette. 1 wo hundred millions must be
raised by internal taxes alone, in .addi
ti,l)l lo loeattj from other xourcai. The
share for Pennsylvania of the internal
revenue will be over thirty-three
millions of which Allegheny county
must pay,over two millions annually".
What our State, county ami city taxes
will be for the next fiscal year, we will 1
not enlarge upon for fear we may be I
considered hostile to the Government. I

Abolition Truth.
To the Editor of the Post
Dear Sir :—lf any one wishes to see
! a sample of the paltry tricks and devices
! a bigoted abolitionist will be guilty of to
j hide the deficiencies and short comings
j of his colored brethren, let him loote at
| the Dixpatrh of the Ist inst. It publishes
I a letter to the Providence Journal, from
Lieut. Eddy of the 3dR. I. Battery, giv
[ ing an account of the late defeat of Mr.
| Lincoln’s expedition to Florida. The
: Lieutenant says: “It was our misfor
j tune to have for support a negro regi
| nu-nt, who, by running away caused us
|to lost* our pieces.” This the Dispatch
makes read “a new regiment.” It is a
small matter but it shows the vile dispo
sition of these miserable creatures who
would rather throw the disgrace of this
“running away” on white soldiers by
an implied lie than that their negro
Liends should he known to be what
they are. No one but a chapwith “nig
ger on the brain” would suppose for a
moment that a parcel of negroes, finding
thnnscJvus in such a scrape would do
anything else “but run away if they got a
chance. “Instinct is a great matter.”
Falptaff was cowardly in instmet and
thought better of himself forit. Courage
generally speaking, is an animal quality.
The white man has the courage of the
higher animals, the black that of the
lower—the rat for instance. No animal
will fight more wickedly than a rat if
cornered, but if be can get away he will
leave. The negroes are said to have
fought desperately at Port Hudson, but
tin y got inside the t-nemy’9 works and
could not retreat. Negroes no doubt
can be drilled to an astonishing degree
of accuracy. I'ui; they have mimicry
strongly developed in them. But you
might as well call tin* thieving hyena ,
the mate and equal of the royal tiger, 1
because he belongs to the same class
and order of animals, as to say the negro
is tlie equal ofthe Caucasian. They are
entirely diflhrmt kinds of the animal
man. When brought in contact the su
perior race of course takes precedence.
Have not the .ibolitionists seen enough
proofs of this ? Citizen.

Mr. Dawson’s Speech

attention of the nenioeratie ]iress Gener
ally, whieh abounds wit h commendations
of this admirable defenee ol the Consti

Con*tt f "th.'.<U f yiiea, we take the follow
ing remarks upon the speech:
As the | eriod approaches for liking
the preliminary steps necessary fur the
organization of tin'conservative men of
the country, we have been anxions to
spread helorrnur n ailers a mass of infor
mation, which furnish a librarj-of knowl
edge on all tlu‘ principles which must
guide their action in the coming contest.
For this purpose we have published the
speeches of the ablest and purest men in
the House; of men who argue with vivid i
logic and energetic eloquence against the
ruinous course pursued by the parties iu i
I rower, and indicate with graphic wisdom
the only plan hy whieh the war can he
terminated, the Constitution maintained j
and die Union restored Enlightened |
by the combination of knowledge the I
conservatives will speak and act under- ]
standingly on every question concerting I
the events now ngUating tin country.
Mr. Dawson's .speech is marked
throughout with high-toned and lolly
I patriotism—with a clear and cnmprehi n-
I sive judgment of the pauses of our na
-1 tional ditlieulties and the means of ro
| storing the nation to its former Irayquil
; ity. It carries us back to the days of
pure and undefiled devotion to the whole
country; and its eloquent denunciations
of sectional narrow-mindedness and its
appeals to legislature to come up to the
full stature of the manhood of a states
man of the olden time, remind us that
yet the Constitution has a defender
worthy of a nation’s gratitude, and the
people a representative whom they can
trust as a guide, one to whom they can
look for words of true w isilom and safe
counsel. The speaeli is [replete with
warnings drawn from intimate acquain

ra*THE GREAT SECRET.—IT IS
admitted by all physicians that the grand
secret of health ami lung life lies in keeping the
blood anti \ arious fluids of the body in a high de
gree of fluidity. When you leel continued pain
in the head or bowels, or any continued uneasi
ness in any organ hr parts of the hodv, you can
prevent serious sickness by taking
Ilranciretli’s* I*lll*s.
Bleeding may give momentary rase, because the
Mood left will have trum-mom. But ns the body
is made from the blood, amt sustained by the
blood, to waste our Mood i* to waste our lile,
and ruin our constitution. But Jtrandreth'a
Pills relieve the circuin.un as readily as bleed
ing h} only taking av. uhat it can well spare,
