We are perfectly conscious that the re
quirementi of the ,Kai and the-debt-that
war has' left have been the occasion and
necessity for an enormous revenue. The
two and a half to - tbree thou'and millions
of dollars which we owe must be provided
for, principal and interest. No good citi
l‘gen is willing to impair the Purpose to pay
the debt at a period so , brief as to overstrain
the capacityof people. We have
ex
tended our energy and treasure to carry
on the war, and it is not wise to hasten
the liquidation of, the debt before we shall
have had opportunity - to recurierate:"'Por
the fiscal year ending on the 00th of June
last, the receipts into the Federal Treasu
ry amounted to More than $550 000,000,
as -4 fellews : customs $170,040.680.64 ; sale
otlands. $665i031.03 ; direct tax, $1,974,-

miseellimetous sources. $65,125,966.46.
has been Computed that they will, at the ,
present rates, amount for the current fiscal
'rear to about $650.000.000. Such an ex
traordinary FUM drawn from the produc.
tiyellndustry of the country close upon its
exhaustion, from war,. must, it persisted
in fora long period, seriously checls,if not
arrest ita prosperity Certainly it ought
not, to be done unless. the necessity for it
shall be imperative.
This, we are happy to say, is not the
case. The civil and foreign service of the
country requtrea only , an expenditure of
'about forty millions of dollars. iThe War
Department will require in equal amount
and the navy perhaps as much mere. The:
*Atm and other charges will be about
twenty miUiogs in round numbers. The
,lnterisst on the public debt will not
*ceed one hundred and forty millions,

dollars in all.", If, then, to this we add a
ainkinf2 fund of only $20,000 000 annually,
we,woult have sufficient to pay all the
ieitly charges against the government
'end be able to liquidate the whole amount
of the debt in the lifetime of a generation.
It is practicable. therefore, for Congrers to
reduce the segregate of our taxes to thre.e.
fifths, if not one-half, their. present vol_
ume, and still maintain the public credit
and meet honorably all,engagements.
Whatever amount is raised more than
is necessary for these' purposes is extor
tionate, and must bear upon the tax-payer
with undue severity.. Instead of building
I up the industries of the country, it wrests
from the producer the very means of sub
sisting himself and paying any lax what
ever. The agriculturist disposing of his
land toliquidate his debts, instead,of oc
cupying it end providing for them with
the income, is no leapt picture of a gov
ernment prwecuting'such a policy. Let
there be delay till our people shall have
begun to prosper again, and theit\we shall
be ab'e to repay allwith ease.
NOT ABAiIIIONED.
It seems that the - iMpeschment Scheme
has rot been abandoned, but simply post
poned until the meeting of the Fortieth
Congiess, for the reason that the majority
of the Senate - refuse to co opei'ate in a
movement - of tlekind. Theieading Red.
icals therefore propose now to.4wrry on a
- system of pretended inveatig4inn, and
spread before the public such, garbled
statements as will, in their opinien, con
vince the Senate'of the necessity ofgetting
- rid of the PrealAent. While these com
mittees, are at work, they propose to have
laws that will effectually tie -the bands of
the
.Presideist; and divest him of all the
power possible. The so. ailed 'Southern
loyalists" are in session there, furnishing
one-sided statements in regard to the ac
tion, of the Southern people. for the pur
pore of enceura.iegthe Thalia • . .
Yeerang - Ere - ria — thi to - a working point. The
schf me especially advocated and urged
upon Congress by this faction, shows to
what extent the extreme men of the ceun
try are ready to push their plane to ob•
lain power. There is in all this, especially
on the - Part of the Radical leaders, a bold
ness, and we might add a rashness, that is
somewhat astonishing. They make nose : .
cret of their plans, but proclaim theta on
all occasions, with that assurance that car
ries with it perfect confidence, in their
own' minds, or success.
It is probable that,were it not' for the
opposition* of such men as SEIERMAi, HAI/.
ass and PossrmosNr in-the Senate. wn) re-
Om to do the bidding of the waren:l6 men
of the party, the most extraordinary revo
lutionary measures would be resorted to.
The-teal object of all this is, beyond any
doubt, the control of the next Presidential
SleOtion, and the exclusion of the Southern
States trout participating in that election.
If, with alt of :these' schemes, wo escape
another conflict, it will be almost a mire,.
cle. It will'not be for 4 the want of deter:
urination pn the part - of the Radial chiefs . .
