The rebellion xaay ipeedilj collapse and tbe catiooal authority may be completely restored oer the IworgCDt iUtei wittin a brief period, jet, if these eretU ahocld transpire at an early day, the Tribune) says tl.ere are other evils which will prclofif tbe "catiou'e agony" indefinitely, unless promptly remedied. Comicg from a journal which bae Wen a most vigorous support to thTwar policy of tte edminLtratioD, there la food for reflection in the suggestions it makes io regard to the difficulties which environ the nation even if tbe "pacification of our country" should come "at , a Terj early day." Assuming that inch will be the case, the Tribune thus foreshadows and comments upon the tew trials of the cation, which it predicts will prove equally. if cot more burdensome, than thoe which the war has already occasioned. Referring to the probable restoration of peace at an early day, it remarks: - But that will be bv to means tbe end of our trials, though it ought to mark tb utmost limit of our public burdens. Wbea tbe wr end., our pubfio debt should have reached Its maximum, sad its reduction should, within a few weeks thereafter, have begun. We sre now pacing into the national treasury about four hundred millions per annum more than one million dollars per day: and we would reduce no tax till alter the reduction of tbe principal ol our debt shall hire fall? beeun. uive us peace, industry and fru gality, and we may very soon be paying off the principal of that debt at the rate of at Iet one hundred millions per annum The iodispeosable condition of our financial olvency te national economy; and that is yet to be secured." Our congress, but wperiilly tbe House of Representatives, seems iLCapable of comprehending our financial condition in fact, how eoelJ it b expected to do so when its leader imagines that irredeemable paper may bo maue equal in value to gold by tbe easy f roce ol en actios! that it abail be ana remain pot uo we cot bear from various ree pectuble quarters cue gestioos that ear currency ah all be allowed to remain Irredeemable lor an indebnite period at ter peace? Are we not told that tbe country will not be ready fer resumption for years? and how does this differ from tbe assumption that slavery must be indefinitely continued because Ibe blacks are unfit for freedoms or taut coun ter feit money must be allowed to circulate be cause the volume of genuine currency is insufli eieul? Ve hold it the interest of every one who live? by honest industry or by the hooest employ inem of cap:tal that we shall return to a curreucy at par with specie at the earliest possible moment. and that this moment will arrive witbin sixty, or at moat ninety days after the government shall be able to desist from further borrowing. Hut to render such presumption practicable it i es sential that we have peace and nattoual frugality That oeace cannot be far distant; but where i the frogititi? What single expenditure does congress propose to retrench? Iu wbat depart ment is the tendency to increased outlay success fully resisted? Only think of tbe proposition to ot the builders of iron-clads twenty per cent extra being seriously entertained by congress at such a crisis as thisl Think of tbe patent exten ion jobs, involving the abstraction of million on millions from the sweat aud toil of the many to swell the riches of tbe few that are no beinroiloted tbroueb the Uoue I Think of TOtisg $23,000 st such a time to a painter o very moderate pretensions at Jca$t, or verj moderate achievementfor a picture to orna ment the capllol ! Think of the millions lav ished on that capitol throughout tbe years when the national existence was at stake, and when the soldiers who stood between the republic an her ruin were vainly asking for the money they bad so nobly earned, and for which their wive and children were famishing ; I ruly. the pa tience of the masses ia explicable only by their nrofuund unacnuaintances with what is most vital in the conduct of their public affair.

For some months past Jackson county, ni this Ute. has been inlested with a gan; of daring and bloody-minded villains, whose outrages have ' at times been of a mot startling character Robbery and even murder bas been commuted with a high baud, aud so far the guilty perpetra--tor have escaped detection and arrest. The latest outrage we have beard being committed there took place on Saturday night laid Three men, two of whom had their taie blacked, and were otherwise divuicd, on that night went to the residence of Mrs. Joel Kichard, iu that township, and whose husband i in fie army, and demanded of Mrs. H (who was sick in bed.) that ahe at once give them all the money she bad. She told tbem she had but two dollars, which they inisted wa false, and told her that tbey would kill 1 er and the whole family if she did cot give up tbe won ey. She protected that she had no other money than tbe two dollars, wten the two w ho were disguised (tbe other man standing guard ootsiJe wilh a guo) went to the well and took the rote off the windlass, and drsgced Mrs. KicharJs from the bouse and hung her up, far a few mo . meats, to a projection Irom the smoke bouse Oü letting her down, they agtiu demanded the money, which the denied having, aud told them she had told the truth. They then hang her again, holding her up till t.he was nesrly ded. and oo atill atfirmiojr, thai ah bad no more mo: ey, they ;et her go, and left the preniies. Th s is one of tbe most inhuman outrages we ever re corded, and tbe people of J acksou county hou! J organize a vigilance committee that will but.t down and hang tbe scoundrel.

Mr. Branhtm moved a nmendment that tie rate of interest shall beiailorm at six per cent, per annum. Mr. Buskirk was opposed to this thing of increasing the interest. He was opposed to the amendment, and upon tbe question of its adoption be demanded the yeas and najs. A discussion ensued between Messrs Bran ham. Gregory, Coffroth and Dunham. The latter gentleman explained that under Mr. Bran ham's proposition the simple effect would be an increase of interest accruing to tbe common school fund. Mr. Coffryth, in reply said the common school fund could very well be taken care of without adopting measures caculated to increase our state debt. Mr. Burkirk agiin insisted that by the adop tion of the proposition, additional burdens would be imposed on tbe tax-gayer. Mr. Branhsm said that it was the purpose to take the state bonds out of the market and turn them over to the common school fund, and upon these bonds he simnly desired that tbe slate should nay the school fund 6 per cent. Mr. Newcomb opposed Mr. Branham's amendment, showing that investments would of course be in 2l's, thus materially increasing the -rate of interest paid by the state, to the detriment of the tax-payer.

Mr. Wright opposed at length aud with great warmth, not only the reconsideration, but, icci dciitally, the whole bill. Mr. Oresrory was in favor of re consideration. The amendment was clearly unconstitu tional. 1 axation must be uniform. The soldier and the citizen must stand alike before tbe constitution and the law. Mr. Brown dem m icd the previous question.

The following report of the board appointed by the president of the United Slates to eximine and correct tbe quotas of the several states and districts under the call for volunteers of Decern ber 19, IfcGd.U published for the information of all concerned. Washington, February 1Ü, 1665. His Eicellency, Abraham Lincoln. President of the United States, Washington, D.

'Second. The provost marshal general i ordered to m ike the drait iu the respective districts a speedily the same cm I e d ne after ttie I5:h of this oionth.' "Abraham Lincoln." Have respectfully to report as follows: The call for thrt-e hundred thousand men, made by the president on the lUih of December, 1?C4, requires that number aha 11 be raised. But the law requires that the number of men rreviously fur cished by di:Terent localities, and the periods of their pervice, hall be considered so as to equal ize the draft. The number of men liable to do military duty is to be determined by tbe enrollment lis's. I be number of men which bad been furnished by the various localities ar.d their periods of service were ascertained, and previous account hiving been adjusted, the excese, where they existed, were carried forward under the la-it draft. The amount of service furnished i determine.! by multiplying the number of men ra;sed by the number of yeirs for which tbey enlisted. Having thus ascertained the number of men enrolled oo the 31st of December, 164, the number of mtn furnished up to that date, the localities from which they come, and the periods of their service, it is rropesod to distribute the call for three hundred thousand men among the several districts and parts of districts according to the nun.Wer enrolled In each, and the cumber of men famished, and the periods of service previously rendered bv ech Tbe rule by which this is accomplished is as follows: Take the whole number of yesre of service furnished by tbe district! of tbe United States
from the commecceeer.t of the rebellion to tbe 31rt of December. 15C4; from that sam deduct the whole number of men furnished from all tbe districts of the United States up to that date The remainder will be the excess of years of service furni.-hed by all the districts. Multiply the call of Dec 10, lrCl, by three, to have tbe number of years of service upon that call, and to this add tbe ex?ca as ascertained above. Then, as the number of men enrolled from the whole
United States, up to tbe 31st of December, 1664. is to tbe period of service as shore ascertained, so is the number of men enroled in a given district to tbe number of years of service it is required to furnih, including its pr rata share of tbe excess. From this sum deduct tbe actual excess tbe district furnished; the remainder is the number of tears of pervice which tbe district is require ! to furniih under the call of Dec l'J, 1?C4, which, divided by tbre gives ibe cumber of men required from the district. As this call is for three hundred thousand men, that number cannot be reduced by men goin in for a period longer than one year. Inequalities produced bv going under this call for longer pe riods thsn oue year must be equalized on future calls It will be perceived that, though tbe ageregate of tbe excess furnuhed is added to the whole call, the excess of each district is afterwards subtrtcted from its quota. Thus the Dumber of men called for is neither increased nor diminishee, but equally produced, considering the number of men and the periods of their service. Lo calities which have heretofore furnished a greater amount of service have, io proportion to their enrollment, a less amount to furnish unier this call, and conversely. Men having heretofore enlisted for one. two and three years, it was necessary to take one of these periods as the basis of the calculation. As three years embraced both the other periods, it makes tbe calculation more tiruple to adopt that. The same result would be arrived at by adopting either one or two years as the haMs, but the process of calculation would be more complicated. Such we find to be tbe rule adopted by the provost marshal general. The rule is in conformity with the requirements of the laws of congress, and it is just and qaitab'e. We have carefully examined and proved the work done under this rule by the provost marshal general, and find that it has been done with fairness. We 6Ie in the provost man-bal general' office our calculation of the quota of each and every district indorsed by us as correct. (Signed) Jaxk.a Sri.ii.

Butler.'remitted to Lowell, rejected from the military service of his country, and under the ban of civil and military censure alike, turns unon his accusers with an aspect of something more than defiance. He declines totally to appear at the bar as defendant. The moment he makes himself heard, it is in the character of accuser that he appeals to the people. And he summons to the bar, at which he himself refuses to be put on his detente, no less a person than the lieutenant general commanding the armies of the United States. Whatever else may be affirmed or denied of Gen. Butler's speech, this must be admitted: it is a deliberate, systematic, unsparing and rcso lute as-ault upon tbe reputation of Gen Grant as a military leader. And it is an effort uoou the face ot it successful to change the whole responsibility for the non exchange of our prison ers from the author of this speech to the author of his removal. From the beginning to the end, in its general scope and in its minutest detail, the ppeech of Gen Butler breathes hostility to Gen. Grant; was made for the purpose of declaring his enmity, and puts him who male it in the van of that movement, well known to be under way, for the displacement of the lieutenant general from command, or for forcing him, if retained, to adopt a different policy.

John Bull, of Louisville, Kentucky. - HU Inimitable preparation of SAHSAPAHIL. LA baa long tooi at tne Dead of tne vanooa Com pound qx that valuable drsg. His Compound of WILD CHERRY baa become a household word throughout tbe West and Soufh. ilia Worm Lozenrea, in lew than a year after their introduction, attained a reputation As wide ipread as the continent ef North America. But tne crowding glory or bla lire remain to bo attained tn bis discovery . or ratber combination, for he does not claim to have been the discoverer of CKDICOft wDcb tne basi. of tne Kitter sow offered to the pub lx. That honor belongs to the native inhabitant of Central America, to whom its virtue have been known for more than two hundred years. Armed with It, the ltiüun Pius aenance to tbe most oeaaly malaria and naiMiie itnout tear tue most venomous erpentt. Iti a belief with them, that while there ia breath in the bod the Cedron is potent to cure, no matter what the isear may be. While Dr. Bull is not prepared to endorse this etra vat-ant pretenRion, he ia nevertheless alisfled from a thorough examination of the evidence relating to its virtues, tnat as a remedy and preventative of all dis ease arisiug from exposure, either to change of weather or climate, or to miasmatic influences, it stands WITHOUT A RIVAL! And Justly deserves tho reputation it has so long enjoyed la Central America aud the West Indies. IN DYSPEPSIA And its attendant train of lymptoms, it acts more LIKK A CliAkM than a medicine. Tbere is nothing in the whele range of Materia Medica that can for a moment bear a comparison with it in this disease. A full account of this wonderful plant may be found In tbe 1 Ith edition cf tbe U. S. Dispensatory, pages 1337 and I3S8. A series of experiments in hieb Dr. Bell has been for years engaged, has Jest been brought te a successful termination, and he (a row enabled to offer to the public a combination ef CEDRON with other approved tonics, the whole prexerved in the best quality of copper distilled Bourbon Whisky, which he is confident has n equal in the world. Be might furniFb a volume of certificates, br ab lie have long iduce learned to estimate such I..,., their true value. The safest plan is for every on te te for himself tbe vlrtaes of a new medicine.
