We earnestly urge the Democrats of Erie, Warren, Crawford and Ashtabula counties to make a special effort to in crease the circulation of the Osumi during the exciting and important politi cal campaign so soon to open. Let no man wait upon his neighbor to commence the work of obtaining ißubetwiptions, but enter upon it himself, with energy, deter mination and persistenCy. The crisis de mands the services of all, and no one can excuse himself who fails to perforiti'his duty in this hour of his 'oountry's danger.

Is liar, in short, be appropriately Styled a Dethocratio History of the IlebelliaNiin oontradiatis'oetion 'to the many garbled' Unreliable books pretending to give an account of the osigin and progress of the war, which have been written by Abolition authors for Abolition pmpo les, and flooded over an anauspealai eat too easily duped country. It differs from any of those' so-called. histories, though, in . the fact that it giVea documentary proof for every assertion that it metes, sad can be relied upon in every particular. ; • ' Mr. Carpenter has made n decided hit in this work, and if it reap!! a reward consistent with its merits, it will have the largest circu lation of any that has bees announced for the last ten years.

Commencing . with the formation of the Federal party, it follows the ahequered and inconsistent career of, the opposition down to the present day, quoting from the sentiments of their speakers and editors, giving their platforms, compar ing their acts and professions, and showing the tendency of them 41 to pr oduce the very condition of civil war land despotism which , now bangs over the nation. There is hardly an event which has occurred since the ac knowledgment of our national independebee, but is treated on at more or less length*. The bbok is a complete encyclopedia of politleal knosiledge. We endorse it strongly, hut I not with a particle tho much of warmth, Ir is one that no Democrat should do without or, once having, wouid do without, and, as stroll, we commend it to the attention of our party friends everywhere. The price is $1.50; if sent by mail, sl.76—toe extra twenty-five cents being needed to cover postage, Sto.

The • present_ deranged condition of the currency is im putable, ins great degree, to disturbances arising from the withdrawal of necessary checks, often inevitable 'in 'time of 'war, when expenditures must largely exceed any possible supply of coin. The oppor tunities thus presented to' itiqttitie*ldden wealth 'have led to vicious speculatiOn, a eoneequent increase in prices; and 'violent fluctuation. • The 'remedy, is to be found only in controlling 'the Necessity which begets the evil: Hitherto we have felt the need of More extensive and vigorous taxa tion. Severe comment itas been made upon what seemed to many an endue ti midity- and tardiness of !action, ,on- the part of Congress, in this regard. I deem it but just to say that very great misappre hension has existed,- and perhaps still ex ists, upon this point. Legislators; like all others, have much to learn in a new-con dition of affairs. An entirely new system was to be devised, and' that,system mint necessarily be the groWth6r time end ex perience. It is not strange that first ef forts should have proved imperfect end inadequate.' To lay heavy burdens on' a great and patriotic people in such a man ner as to be equal, and as to occasion the least amount of suffering or annoyance, requires time and caution, and vast lal?ori •and, with all these, experience is peedful to test the value of the system and correct its errors. Such has beenhe work which Congress„was called upo n to perform. I am happy to say that daily results are pro ving.' the Internal Revenue• art to exceed in efficiency the most sanguine expecta tions of its authors. In thri month of June 1863, it yielded about foiar, and one-half millions of dollars, whileithe correspond ing month of this year returned about fif teen millions, under the same law. Under the new laW, which went into.operation on the first day of tjic present month, the Treasury not ' unfrequently receives 'one million in a day. As time and experience enable the officers employed hi collecting the revenue to enforce the stringent pre visions of the new law, I trust that a mil lion per =day Will , be found the rule and not the exception. Still, much space is undoubtedly left for improvement in the law, and in its administrtilion,sssgreater amount of necessary information is ac quired.
