KDi-roa .AsSOOIATS Kditok Where tit liespoiisilitllty Belongs A certaia class of newspapers ia the caun try are continually charging that tbe Abolitionists and Republicans . are responsible for this war ; that upon their heads rest the guilt of this rebellion. It ia neither pleasant or profitable at this time to divert tbe public mind from the great issue of tbe Lour tbe preservation of the Union and the maintainance of the Constitution to the causes which led to the contest. It is enough for the patriot to know that armed rebels are endeavoring to destroy tbe gov ernment, and that before peace and order can be restored, the insurrection must be crushed by an overwhelming physical power. But it ia well to correct the sophisms of quasi traitors, and rebuke the attempt now being made to place tbe guilt or inciting this rebellion where it does not belong. We have never been great admirers of the Abolitionists. They were at moat a noisy faction, confined to the Eastern States, wbera year after year they met and passed resolutions, to which tbe country gave little heed. To charge this clique of strong minded women, fanatical preachers, and madmen, with being the cause of the war, ia in the highest degree absurd and preposterous. The Republican party is guiltless. It only sought to confine slavery where it is, but were willing to accord to the slaveholder and to the slave States alL their constitutional rights. Mr. Davis of Kentucky, in his speech in tbe benate last Thursday, truly remarked that ftlflVArv waa a 11 ,,lt ..rv..rn.f-1 Mn.tr CT-rrrd Te&eniGor iris one of the causes, be cause the anti-slavery sentiment of IheJNorth owing to the divisions in the Democratic party, elected Mr. Lincoln, and Reliellion followed upon his inauguration as President The right of anti-slavery men to elect Mr. Lincoln, is not questioned anywhere, and i the Southeruers had acquiesced in the legal election of a man opposed to the extension of slavery, all would have been well, and the country, to-day, would be at peace and the South would be secure in the possession of all her Constitutional rights. To chare Abolitionists, or the Republican party, with being the cause of the war, is as ungenerous as it is untrue. The pride and insolence and ambition of tbe Southern headers is the primary cause of our trouble. They ha monopolized tbe Government, in its honors for forty or fifty years, with few interrop tions. V nen they saw the scepter about to depart from them ia tue election of Liacol sooner than give up office, and the spoils of office, in their mad aud wicked ambition they determined to disrupt tbe old Confed eration and to erec t a new tue, where they would have undisputed poster. The people of the South, blinded by pre judice and maddened by the misrepresenta tionsof these wicked men, blindly followed . in their wake, and the election of Mr. .Li coin was followed by the seizure of United Mates lorte, arsenals and minis, and the disarming and capture ot United States troops The Republican party nor any other organization or faction, in the North, is responsi ble for the results which followed the elec tion of Mr. Lincoln. Tbe Sonth struck the - VAam ; i-Wy ruahadclvll jar ajnaf the wrl fare of the Government ; they raptured For Sumter, menaced the Capital, murdered Northern troops in the streets of Baltimore and first brought dishonor upon the causa and flag of the Constitution and Union. The crime is taeirs, and impartial history will bo record it. Although the abolitionists are not responsible for this war,, it is evident that their prayers in regard to slavery are to be answered if not by an abolition of the Institution, by its derangement and the escape of thousands, who otherwise would have died in bondage. Thus has an overruling Providence made the Southern Confederacy the instrument by which the power of slavery is to be overthrown. So long as the South remaiued in the Union, her cherished institution was safe. The conservative men of the North would have been their sure defence against tbe fanatics, who for years impotently agitated the abolition of slavery. All was well for them, and for ns, until with parricidal hands they laid hold upon the Constitution. From thut hoar the influence of slavery ia the legislation of the country was gone, and the North united to crush the rebellion at all hazards. And yet the Administration has over and over again annoonced, that we are not vra -ring upon slavery, and if the institution is in danger, it is because the rebels will not lay down their arms and submit to the government. Until they do this, the war will be carried on, although its continuance should result in the freedom of every slave

in the Republic. Thus, the South being

responsible for the rebellion, are responsible likewise for its bitter fruit3. Their lead ers were not satisfied to have slavery con fined by local laws, but were endeavoring to spread it over the face of this fair Repub lic. Failing to do this, they have revolted, and we will bring them back, though the war should take the Ia9t dollar aud the last man capable of bearing arms, in the Northern States. If, amid the commotion of this strife, slavery disappears, history will record tbe fact that the so-called Southern Confederacy was alone responsible for the result. Latest from Memphis. We conversed yesterday with a gentle. man who left Memphis only a week since. He says that extensive preparations are being made to receive the Yankees. The foundry at the Navy Yard is turning out cannon very rapidly, and has cast four 100pounders which are mounted on the earth works at Memphis. Clothing is very scarce aud high, and woollen goods have almost disappeared from the shelves of the dry goods stores. Boots eell at ?14.$25 a pair. Coffee $1.50 per pound. Salt is worth f 20 a sack, and the army is obliged to do without it, eating their fresh beef unseasoned. Of course tbe rebels are still of the opinion that they will secure their independence, though they confess that Memphis will be in danger if our forces ever ascend the Tennessee river, and cut off their supplies. A great deal of sickness prevails in the rebel army, and the hospitals are crowded. 5?" The Burnside expedition has been heard from at last, but the news is not' exactly as we would have wished it.- And yet we have cause to be grateful that amid the unparalleled storms encountered by the fleet, the disasters werebot more numerous and attended with greater loss of li fe. ' Perhaps the most serious trouble wilt be found in tbe fact that a bar has been formed at Hatteras Inlet by the gale, preventing vessels drawing over seven feet from entering the Sound. ; Some considerable time will elapse before the bar will " wash out," and in the meantime the expedition will be delayed. The loss of several fine vessels tbe death of Col. Allen, bis Surgeon, and other officers and sailors, connected with the expedition, are to be deplored; but we hope that Gen. Burnside, when he is .airly landed, will strike such vigorous and swift blows at tbe ht'Ki t of the rebellion that the country v. iii i v nsoled for these losses by a series ol tnllmut aud decisive victories. ' Kroin Cumberland, '.,' It has been supposed that the rebel General Jackson, who was lately shelling our camps at Hancock, and more lately cqm.t Una n n ftat frrtwi BowoeTi Vf . likely either to attack General Lander pt Cumberland, or cut him off from his connections on the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad by making a dash westward to New Creek The following, from the Wheeling Intelligencer, of Saturday, would indicate, on tbo other hand, that Jackson has had enough of the aggressive, and that we are more likely to attack him than he is to attack us. The re-enforcements ordered forward from Ohio must reach General Lander by to-day. By a telegram received in this city late last evening from Camp Kelley, which is tbe name of tbe camp at Patterson's Creek, where our forces now are, we learn that Jackson has fallen back with tbe larger portion of bis troops to Unger's store, within fifteen miles of Winchester, at the junction of the Springfield Road with tbe Romney and Winchester Pike, leaving General Loring with his brigade still in Romney. Tbe enemy has evacuated Springfield, which is now held by our troops. Though we are no prophets, we predict that in this state of the case, tbe enemy now ia Romney will, some cold morning, not very far distant, retire from Romney as precipitately as tbey did oo a late occasion at Blue Gap. :... The Effect of Activb Opebations in Missoori. Persons in Kansas, and others engaged in tbe military operations in Western Missouri, say that the number of negroes left in tbe whole State does not exreed 10,000. A Missonrian, whose opportunities to form a correct judgment are excellent, says that about two-thirds of tbe slaves have disappeared, leaving about 35,000 behind. The exodus has been most largely to the South, but large numbers haVTlf-ssraped in0 tbe free States and territcyifrVr' hatevermay tmppen,"the " inaiitution" is finally broken down in Missouri. Thb Sutlers and the Allotment Law. The sutlers have printed and are circulating in the camps a paper denouncing the allotment law of Congress as a swindle by the Government : - soldiers beware. The Government seeks to place your hard-earned dues beyond your control by a system called the "Allotment Law." The money you so allow nevercomes into your possession, and is for the whole torm of your enlistment, evidently considering you NOT CAPABLE of managing your own affairs. It has been supposed you were Fighting fou Freedom, aud not to le enslaved. Your decision in the matter, for thb fibst PAY" governs each pay hereafter. "The allotment system rescues a large portion of the suldiera' pay from the greedy grasp of tbe sutlers, and ' hence this impudent and seditious attempt to discredit it. Senator Wilson, it is said, will bring the matter before tbe Senate immediately, aud it ia thought that Congress wilt immediately sweep the sutlership from tbe army. JEtS?" Gen. Garfield's command has been ordered into winter quarters near the scene of his re. out victory over Humphrey Marshall.

Tbe Tax on Newspapers. The dispatches of this morning state that newspapers are to be taxed according to their circulation. This seems to be a favorite idea with the members of Congress and suctr a bill will pass without opposition. But why the proprietors of newspapers should be taxed more than any other class of business mea we have not yet discovered. It is a common opinion that the newspapers are " making money by the war," and for this reason they should bear an extra burden of the National tax. So far is this from being true, that newspapers everywhere have lost money since the war began, and more papers suspended in 1861 than in any previous year since 1814. The New York Tribune, one of the best paying newspapers in tbe country, issued in 18C1 thirty millions of copies a large increase upon its former circulation and yet at the end of the year the concern had not made a cent, a very unusual occurrence in the Tribune office. The circulation of a newspaper may increase while tbe profits of the concern diminish. The falling off in Advertising Eince the war has been so great and general ; as to swallow np the profits of the circulation, and something more. The proprietors of newspapers are willing to be taxed as

beavily as any other class, but the true way to levy the tax would be to make all manufacturers of whatever kind or nature, pay one per cent on the market value of their products to the government. In this way the burden would fall equally noon all. The imposition of a tax upon newspapers, while other business men sell their wares untaxed, would be unfair, and ought not to be thought of by a Congress, professedly seeking to lay the . burdens of the war upon all classes of society alike. The Ejection In Livingston and Lyon Counties, Kentucky. Messrs. Editors : I notice by the Jour nal that my old friend and chum, Dr. W.C. Noel, of Ashbyburg fame, has hung out his sign as a candidate to represent Lyon and Livingston counties in tbe Kentucky Legislature. Bully tor the " Doctor." If that circular don't bring out the sovereigns, then there is no salvation for them. Of course, he will bo elected; who can doubt it? And we say to the Kentucky Solo ns to trim up their grave physiognomies for a few jolly laughs, over a score or two of our friend's reminiscences of Hopkins county. It will be extremely gratifying to see the Doctor occupy the seat formerly filled by rebel G. R. Merrit, who was expelled for bis outrageous affiliation with the invaders of his Stale. If our friends of Livingston and Lyon want a man to represent them, who will stand square up to the rack, fodder or no fodder, let them elect the Doctor, He is not afraid of hurting rebeldom. IJOPKI.NS. Return or Minister Corwin. Minister Corwin's latest letters coming down to De ceniber 24, confirms the report that he wiil soon return home. He thinks that under his present iustructious he shall be unable to advance our interests in Mexico. Tbe Mexicans are, be Bays, making great preparations to resist the allies. 7hk Debt of Canada. The Toronto Globe argues that, heavy, as will be the indebtedness which the present trying struggle for their existence as a nation will bring on the United States, the criminal extravagance and recklessness of tbe Canadian Ministers have brought upon Canada a debt equally heavy in proportion to her population and the extent or her resources. Tbis, it eays, has been sufficiently established. Arrangements for Reporters. The Washington correspondent of the New York Commercial Advertiser says that arrangements have been made for a party of reporters to accompany General McCle.1an'sstaff, with permission to transmit letters to tlveir respective journals. They wished permission to go wherever they pleased during the engagement, but this the General will not grant them. , Some of them might be in too great a hurry to " get their letters off by mail," and thus produce a second edition of the Boll Ron panic. !" Quartermaster General Meigs is quoted as saying that while there are eighty-three regiments of cavalry nominally in the service of the United States, he does not know where to find them. Many are supposed to have only r Fpecnintiv-e existence. 13? A letter from Poolesville says that the Potomacjs frozen, and that the pickets of the two armies are skating amicably, the practice of shooting pickets having been by common consent abandoned. 86?" The Richmond papers say that there was a severe contest in the rebel Concress ovor Beauregard's report on the battle of Manassas. Tbe debates were in secret ses sion, but it leaked out that Davis, who dis liked certain portions of the document, for bade its publication except in an expurgated form, and had enough legislative backers to insure the carrying out of his wishes. If- The Richmond Examiner of the ICth says that up to the 12th of the present month, 540 rebel soldiers had been buried at Holy wood Cemetery near that city, and uses the fact as a text to berate tbe miserable sanitary regulations of the Confederate authorities. ? The Louisville Journal appropriates to itself a letter published in our columns relative lo the death of Capt. Paeon, prefacing it with editoiial remarks, to lead the reader to suppose that the letter was addressed to the editors of that paper. ; Rather small business. Mr. Buchanan denies that he is writing a history of bis " life and times."

The Savanoah Expedition. Advices from Port Royal state that Du-

pont and Sherman are fitting out a new expedition with great energy. Its destination was not divulged there, but from operations already going forward on the Savannah river, is supposed to be Savannah. A chan nel has been surveyed, by which a flotilla can reach the city without passing Fort Pulaski. Tbis the rebels have obstructed by logs and bulks, which our troops were engaged in removing. The rebels had erected a battery at the head of this chan nel, but it is probable that this will not long resist the kind of fire that disposed of the Port Royal batteries. Should tbe gunboats reach the city, it must surrender, in spite of the 25,000 troors who are reported as ready to defend it, hnil then Fort Pulaski must fall into our liaii.'S The expedition was to consist of all of the available troops at Port Royal, except enough to hold the fortifications. Letter From Hon. Jo. Holt on the Ap pointment of Secretary of War. In a letter from Hon. Jos. Holt to Lieut. Gov. Stanton, he uses the following enthusiastic language fpecting the appintment of Uout Edwin M, Stanton a3 Secretary of War viz : St. Locis, Jan. 10, 18G2. "Tbe selection of tbe Hon. Edwin M.. Stanton as Secretary of War has occasioned me unalloyed gratification. It is an immense stride in the direction of the suppression of the rebellion. So far as I can gather the popular sentiment, there is everywhere rejoicing over the appointment; but that rejoicing would be far greater did the people know, as I do, the courage, the loyalty and tbe genius of the new Secretary, as displayed id the intensely tragic struggles that marked the closing days of tbe last Administration. Ha is a great man intellectually and morally a patriot of the true Roman stamp, who will grapple with treason as the lion grapples with his prey. We may rest well -assured that all that man can do will in his present position be done to deliver our poor bleeding country from the bayonists of traitors now lifted against its bosom. Sincerely yours, J. Holt. Hon. B. Stanton, Columbus. - ' -' ; An Ofeicial Statement of the Numbers Killed and Wounded.
