The supply of tonnage has become more reduced during the past two weeks but as the pirates under "Confederate" auspices have almost swept American tonnage from the seas, foreign bottoms are, Mainly • reaping the advantages which accrue from the advitteed rates, consequent upon the present scarcity of vessels. The most lucrative outward freights to Europe, Such as Grain Petro tenni, dec., have almost wholly passed from under the American flag, and the few "old liners" yet running to London, Liveirpi3ol and Glasgow, are contending unequally against vessels of other na tions. The coastwise Trade is pretty much all that is left to us, and this too, is badly cut up by the circumstances of the rebellion. In 1860 the total tonnage of the United States, exclusive of whale men and steamers, was 5,216,181 tons. At the present time it is but little over a million and a half, or, In other words, we have lost in four years upwards of three and a half millions of tons, by cap tures and by transfers to other flags. Thisis indeed a sad commentary upon the former pre-eminence of our mercan tile marine. With a more vigorous pol icy on the part of the Navy Department at Washington, we cannot but believe that the record would have been less re volting. One after another, In rapid suc cession, the best ships in our merchant marine, with their valuable cargoes, have fallen an easy prey to the two or three piratical marauders which the so-called Confederates, aided by their "neutral" friends, haveteen enabled to keep afloat during the three or four years, without adequate efforts having been put forth by our constituted authorities to protect them. The immense amount of shipping thus destroyed could not be replaced in several years. under the most fayorable circumstances, even -though the rebell ion should immediately come to an end; and, as if to inflict still further damage upon this great interest, Congress at the last session imposed a tax of two and a half per cent. on the hulls of vessels of every class hereafter built, exclusive of spars and rigging. This tax, when taken in connection with the depressed condition of the carrying trade, and the enhanced cost of iinaterlals and labor, virtually puts an end to ship-building. The Boston Commercial Bulletin truly remarks, in this connection, that "a tax upon American shipping is a premium paid to that of other nations to come and take our business from us. So long as we could build cheap ships, and our flag was a guaranty for their protection, we were not only able to act as our own foreign factors, and exchange our sur plus commodities in all the world, but also to engross a large share of the mar kets of the carrying trade of other Coun tries. But when we discriminate against our own tonnage, by increasing its cost above that of our commercial rivals, we wantonly surrender everything, even our exports and imports, into their hands.' Political Intolerance • The Nevi York Commercial Adoer User administpfs the following deserved rebuke to th&class of journals and poli ticians which, by the virulenee of its denucniations, would seem to regard all political dissent from its standard as nothing less than a moral crime. It says: "At another time, and in other cir cumstances of the State, this propensity to make moral crimes of what we con sider political error would be simply lamentable. Is is dangerous now, as well as lamentable, and needs therefore to be exposed in its true light as a coun terpart of that odium theolagieum which has'sent so many hundreds of men to the stake and the dungeon for an Intel tectual incapacity of agreement with their executioners. "During the past two years of the war, while men of all shades of political opin ion have been contributing, with equal devotion, their lives, theie means, their gneral support to the national cause, the party organs of the two great politi cal bodies, into which the nation is in tellectually divided, have done their best to break up this wonderful harmony of action by dealing with political opin ions as positive crime. "What right has any man or any body of men to assume for himself or for it self in the presence of events such as now surround this people a deeper in terest in the issue of these events than all the rest of the community, a keener sense of mural obligations in regard to them, or a diviner intuition into the best way of discharging those ob'iga• dons? "Such an assumption is a proof of mental imbecility no doubt, and in or dinary times this would be a sufficient reason for passing over it in silent com passion. But it tends to moral perver sion as well; It tends to harden the heart as well as darken the brain; it tends to make men the easy tools of their own evil instincts, and of the opportunity which great vivit convulsions offer , to these instincts, and forthese reasons it cannot be safely passed over now in si lent compassion.

Reconstructions Mr. Wendell Phillips having, in a re• I cent letter, expressed the opinion that "there Is no plan of reconstruction pos sible within twenty years, unless we admit the black to citizenship and the ballot, and use him, with the white, as the basis of States," because "there is not in the rebel States a sufficient white basis to build on," the New York Times, the leading Administration paper in that city, takes exception to this theory of reconstruction on the follow ing grounds: "Now either the effects of slavery on the negroes have been grossly misrep resented—either the condition of a slave has not been such as to prevent the growth of his intelligence, in which case much of our indignation about it has been wasted, or else Mr. Phillips, and at least a part of the 'Radicals,' are anxious to arm the most ignorant and degraded race of beings to be found in any civilized country with the power of completely silencing the voices of an equal number of Northern whites long trained in the exercise of their political rights, and inheriting the instinct of free Government from twenty genera. tions of free ancestors. For to this complexion must it come at last. , There has been no mode as yet discovered of providing that the consequences of each man's vote shall only affect himself. When an ignorant or corrupt man casts his ballot into the box he simply neu tralizes the vote of one intelligent and honest man, deprives him of all share in the Administration of public affairs; and if ignorant and corrupt men are in a majority, they not only use their own right of sharing-in the Government, but they take away that of their betters, If we give the suffrage to a million of Southern blacks, we virtually supply them with the power of excluding one million of white men at the North from the polls. We cannot at once give them either the training or the intelligence, not simply to judge of the value of pub lic measures, but to judge of the char acter of public men; and yet if this training and intelligence be not neces sary, there is no good reason why the franchise should be withheld from chil dren and idiots—to say nothing of wo man. "The world abroad will ask, and may ask, on teading Wendell Philip's plan of reconstruction, what sort of nation must it be which can only be saved from destruction by gravely giving the same weight in the decisions of the highest and most intricate questions of Government, and in the choice of pub lic servants, to the voice of a negro fresh from slavery, as that of any law yer, scholar, soldier, or statesman in the country. This is Democracy run mad; for it is the open and shameless procla mation of doctrine that nothing is necessary to constitute a citizen beyond a mouth, a_stomach, and a pair of legs; and it, can come from no party ; with a Worse grace than that which , -fors fifty year has. been filling the world with pictutia.4..the horrible consequences to the nation - of enforcing ignorance by law." 1 .1.4 WE are daily in receipt of accounts of depredations and even outrages commit ted on the private rights of citizens re siding around the suburbs of the city by the soldiers stationed at the fortifica tions. They roam through the country for miles out, enter the grounds of the country residences, and break into the milk-houses, rob the orchards, and car ry off chickens and even sheep and piv, threatening to shoot any one who even attempts to remonstrate with them. This has been the case in Oharleratreet avenue, on the York road, and on the Hookstown road, and doubtless other roads to an extent that is no longer tear able. The soldiers have been treated with the utmost kindness by the resi dents, and now repay that kindness by outrage and insnit.—Baltimore Arturri• ran. AN OIL LAKE IN NRINADAD.—TIie London Times says: -There is in Trin idad,only a mile from thn coast, a basin ninety-nine acres, filled with asphalt, yielding seventy gallons of crude oil per ' ton. There are also springs of asphaltic oil in the neighborhood, and large pitch banks on the shore. It is estimated that the lake is capable or producing three hundred million gallons of oil, and forty or fifty gallons are considered equal to a ton of coal. The Trinidad Colonist pub lishes a memorie by Mr. Stollmeyer, of Port of Spain, proposing the use of this liquid for oceanic steam navigation, and he states that he 'lnvs been, at:various times, for these three years, suggesting this employment of a distillate from the pitch like of Trinidad. To oil a ship would,not take above a tenth of the time it takes to coal her, if pipes were em ployed, and the oil would not take up above a fourth of the space occupied by coals. He recommends that it be suppli ed at once as an auxiliary to coal, by throwing jets over the burning mai s,but contemplates, eventually, upright tubular boilers, the liquid fuel to be supplied as fast as it can be converted into flame. Of course, the North American oil spring are another source of supply." LINEAGE OF TILE SIGNERB.—On look ing over the immortal roll of the Sign ers of the Declaration of Independence curiosity has led me to examine from what stock they sprang. I find that four of them were natives oi Ireland, 'viz:— Thornton, Rutledge, Smith and Taylor; two of Scotland, Wilson and Wither spoon; one of Wales, Lewis, and one of England, Robert Morris. There are also three of direct Welsh origin, Wil liams, Floyd, (originally Lloyd,) and L. Morris; three of Irish, Carroll, Read and 'McKean; two of Scotch, Hooper and Livingston; one of ,Swedish,; Morton; one. of Norman, Bartlett, and one of Abstrian, Lynch. The others are of old English stock generally, though there is Welsh blood in the ancestry, of John Adams, Jefferson, Hewes, (probably,) Clymer, Givinnett, (originally Gwinnedd,) and perhaps Robert Morris, as I am inform ed by a gentlemen better informed upon genealogical matters than myself. Morris was born in Lancaithire, near Wales, and from the name, there can not he much doubt of his Welsh origin: Clymer and his. wife, the clittighter of Reese Meredith, (origlisallylferedidd,) were both of Welsh origin. Theisigners from New England were geneittlly di rect descendants frona ithe J. B. R., in Historkal Magazine. TLAl:tons' #WD:CHEOftii i i .1 STOOK ' OF Wall Paper, . . . ... . .
