Wm would suggest to Secretary Chase a pew and perfectly legitimate way of in creasing the public revenue. It is simply to levy a tax on the puffs of Mr. Linttoio and his Cabinet officers that appep in, the Republican papers, and which, if they do not appear as advertisements, ought to .be regarded u such, from the fact that they are always paid for either in favors present or favors in expectance. This would be an indirect but very proper means of restoring to the national exche quer a portion of the money squandered by these gentlemen;and relieve the peo. ple of a large share of taxation. - Wno would believe, if the fact were not, capable of such convincing proof, that the ' following was one of the planks of the far 'famed Chicago Republican platform T As such, it received the cordial endorsement of all the great lights of the party, from Abraham Lincoln to Morrow 13.

A short time since, one Hanley D. Clapp sent a petition . to the Legislature of New York, slitting that he was confined in Lafayette by the military power, and asking such relief as a citizen of the state is entitled to. The . Abolition papers dis missed the matter lightly, assuming that he was some unfortunate "Copperhead" victim of the Administration, tint it now appears that he is an Abolitionist of the purest stripe, that he was the Repub lican candidate for Senator, last fall, in the district where Horace Greeley resides: and was supported ardently by him, re ceiving 8,175 Republican votes. He was beaten, however, by Saxton Smith, Dem ocrat. Clapp was a boisterons,lmllying blatant politician of the Loyal League school, and threatened those who refused to sup port him with imprisonment In Port La,. fayette, where he now hioigelf lies. - He is charged with 4, stralin , ,,7 vms 400,000 dol t:fa frost,rocruita at a single office in New York," and is confined on this charge. 1., a iatl4Aseek Lepablleaa Pain Talk& The Crawford joumal den riot take so encouraging a new of the situation in Louisiana, as its "loyal" cotemporary, the .Erie Gnats. In an editorial article, last week, on "military affairs, it discourses at length on the news from Gen. Banks' department, styling the battles up the Red River "a serious disaster," " more staggering than first report' indicated," and charging the result directly on the "blundering geiseralship" of Banks. Af ter a quarter column of like accusations, it concludes with the remark that "while" Gen. Banks "was winking the disloyal ists" of Louisiana " for a political cam paign, and reducing the Slacks to a state of Wavy sus pits as cy)prosive as the slavay from which they had jest been delivered, the rebel chieftains were actively organ izing and concentrating - their armies at important points, and the result is before WM All this sounds very strangely to come from an Abolition paper. the acknowl edged organ of the party in that county, and we could not have believed it, did we not have the proof right before our eyes. It is easily explained, thOugh, when it is known that the Journal is an anti-Lincoln print, and of:course zealous to hbld up to the publics gaze every feature connected with his Administration likely to convince its readers that he should not again be the nominee of the party. Itiattaaking Gen. Banks, and disclosing his imbecility, it in reality attacks the President, with whom that military officer has always beesian especial 'favorite, so much so that Hr. Linooln committed to him the im portant duty of Arse putting his recon.. struotion plan into practice. We urge the editors of the 'Journal to vigorously continue the good work. If they shall &noosed in opening the eyes of the Repub licans of Crawford to the rascalities and. atrocious mismanagement of this Admin istration, they will have done an act that will entitle them to forgiveness for past political offenees, and ensure them the *Mks of thousands in the future. Tim Colunbus (Ohio) Crisis, of the.2sth nit., says: "It is folly to disguise any lon ger the unwelcome fact that the wheat crop of the entire West is a faihre.

The Grand Army of the Potomac cross es!, the RaPidan.. oil Wednesday. - The 2d corps moved on Tuesday to the Mils op peat. Ely's Ford. On Wednesday niorn irig-at 4 o'elee.k the cavalry crossed and drove the rebel pickets from the opposite bekebta,„meeting no opposition. .On Thurs day morning the rebels pressed our pick ets and appeared to be in strong force on our right. The sth New York cavalry 'skirmishing on the Orange C. H. road near Perkins' Tavern, were driven in with a ewers loss, leaving many wounded on the field . . Gen. Griffin's division was marched • forward on our right about 11 =o'clock to feel the enemy's position, and Were met by the rebel Gisn-.. A. P. Hill, Supported by Gen. Ewell. A determined fight of •one hour and a. half 'ensued, in which Warren handsomely, drove him from his position with :the infliction of great loss. Griffin's division suffered se rarely, nearly 1,000 being killed, wounded and missing. Finding his effort to break our centre 'futile, the enemy next attempted to ha -1 terpose an overwhelming force between Varren and Hancock, the latter of whom, In accordance with orders, was marching his oorpe rapidly' to form a junction with .the former. Fortunately, his advance, - consisting of Birney's corps, came up just in time to circumvent the rebel General. who at 2:30 p. in.,commencied a terriflo on slaught on the divisions'of Birney, Gibson and Getty. the latter of whom' had been temporarily detached to fortis the extreme right of Thinoock's command. The fight raged hotly until some' tile after dark, sad resulted in. the complete repulse of the enemy at sit points; Our los in this ea tit does not ; probably exeeed 1,000 men. Scarcely any artillery wu, brought into requisition, the character of the ground rendering it useless. The battle field is Covered • with a thick growth of under brush and medium-sized oak trees, and it is owing to that fact that, our louse are comparatively light. Our capture in pria' oners are about 500. ' • When Haneock's corps' retired toward Parker's store, 300 of the 113th-Pennsylva nia cavalry, under Mai: Brtmtork, sent to relieve the 'pickets several miles below, on the Spottilylyania road, were Stacked by a large b od y of rebel troopers and driven back to Todd's tavern in confusion and qnfte s large number taken prisoners by the rebeli. Up to this time Gen, Burnside's corps, numbering 30,000 mon:, had taken no part in the battle, but at; 5:30 o'clook4was marching into position to enga ge ity7the bloody contest of the third day 'sbattle. • The Hers/khan the following relatireto the battles of Friday and Saturday: - At o'clock iii the morning an . the first dein' of the morning: was merging into day, the contestlins - renewed along the entire line and the roar And hum. of bat tle came from every quarter. From cer tain indications it waitioncluded Lee was re-enforcing Longstreet in Ilanoock's front, and alert. of Burnsidn's.oorps was actor dingly moved to his support by taking a position to the left oft Gen. Warren and completely filling the; gap into which the two brigades had been thrown the pre ceding evening. On. moving at daylight towards their sniped position they found it occupied by rebels jprepared to dispute its possession. The fighting at this point was over itr 9 o'clock: • Finding it impossible to dislodge the rebels from. their position early in the morning, Hanoock wos griven back close to his breastworks by sopericir force, but subsequently rallied his men and emceed ed itr reigiinigg most of his lost grounds .Between lOand however,Long street succeeded in turning the left of his advance and throwing it into peat confu sion. This extended along the entire line and came near involiing the whole corps in inextricable confusion.: He was once more driven back folds breastworks and the • rebels actually planted their colors outside of them, but could not''sustain themselves and were repulsed. At this time heavy re-inforcements were thrown to his support from 'Burnside's corps, and his men were rallied and taken well in band and all danger of further disaster removed. The charge of Lonistreet was complete fy overwhelming. Solid masses of infan try were hurled upon Hancock, line after line, with an impetuosity which nothing could Withstand. It was exosediney fortunate for the 6th corps and the whole army that he was checked at this crilleal period and driven back with as mnbh precipitation as he came. The ground:in front of Hancock had been fought over a number of times, and the wounded and dying on the field were a vast multitude; many of them had laid there long,.but • majority bad been carried away by the party in temporary possesaion of the ground. A.t„. night Hancock occupied his own breastworks, and hid nothing but priso• 1 next and rebel deadio show for the slaugh terA of the two &yin ting. He behaved with 'conspicuous ' try throughout, and was on the fie in person where din. gers were the thickest. Sen.
