Thc State Central Committee. To-day is the glorious 8th of January, the anniversary of the brilliant battlo at New Or. leans, fought by General Jackson, at the head of troops from the Southern States, January 8, 1815, which virtually closed the war of 1812, as it is called, with the British, in a blaze of glory, establishing finally tho complete independence of the United States. In honor of the event, and of the memory of the patriotic hero and his brave and noble troops, who fought the battle; and of the statesman who, in 1832, healed up the breach with South Carolina, by the peaceful, bloodless method of doing justice to the wronged, the State Central Committee and others, the admirers of the Democratic old General, meet in this city on this day. It will be a part of the business of the Committee to fix the day for holding our State Convention. There is a diversity of opinion as to which that day should be. Disclaiming all officious interference, we can not withhold our reasons for thinking it should bo an early one. The Democratic party in Indiana has been driven into retirement by lawless violenee. Its conventions have V>een held in the midst of insult, and dispersed by military force, under the instigation, if not command, of men assuming to administer the treasury and control the State, in this city. Its presses have -been destroyed by mob«; its voters have been forced 'with violence from the polls, and its votes have been disregarded. By this method the spirit of the party has been broken, lts hopes extinguished. At tho same time it numbered, as it docs to-day, a majority of the legal voters of the State, powerless, however, against armed fraud. The reasons why tho party in power used this military violence to silence the Democratic party were these, among others: 1. Tlie Republican was the party, by whose crimes the country was brought into its terrible troubles, and it dare not allow the Democratic party the privilege of speech and the press to be used in holding up the Republican leaders to the people in their habiliments of guilt.' We had a written Constitution for our government. The Republicans first commenced breaking up that Government by refusing to obey that Constitution. This, we have often proved sinco editing the Herald, and refer to the extracts from the speeches of Tremaine and President Johnson in this day’s paper in confirmation. 2. The Republican leaders, in the mean time, while crying out against the Democratic party and mobbing it to divert public attention from themselves, were carrying on, as time has developed, the most stupendous robberies of the public Binds and public charities that have ever shocked the world; and they are now scattering, more or less of them, to different parts of the world with their illgotten gains, while others unblushingly remain still in the country, expecting to lie protected and screened by Republican power. The mouths and presses of Democrats had to be forcibly silenced that these things might not be exposed. Other reasons might be added, but it would too much extend this article. But now, thanks to President Johnson, we have, in Indiana, tree speech and free press, and it must be used among the people long enough before tho election to let them know the treedom that is restored to them, and the privilege they are to bo allowed to exercise it in displacing from power those who have been fattening upon tho proceeds of their toil and passing laws to exempt the rich plunderers from taxation. It will take time, and the agency of county conventions rand candidates to circulate papers and communicate the glad news of the restoration of liberty to the people; and the further fact, that the President will not probably allow the military to be'used against their will as heretofore, in trampling down the constitutional rights of legal voters in Indiana. These, and other considerations of the like nature induce us to urge strongly an early convention. It will set the people to thinking. Thinking will lead to action. Action, long enough persevered in, will recover back the administration to the people from the squad of tyrants and plunderers who have forcibly held it, and perverted its use to the building up of a privileged moneyed and titled official aristocracy, at the expense, and to the cruel oppression and depression of the weighed down laboring masses. Again: the Democratic party is a party of principle. It is the party of constitutional faith and right. Its history is the history of the prosperity and happiness, and harmonious union of the Republic. It will go before the people on tho strength of its own principles, not on the weakness of its corrupt adversaries, who are held together by nothing but the cohersive desire Of public plunder. The New York Lerlstature of 1860— Its Presiding Otf User*—SSiio ss Secessionist, like tke Indiana Journal— Tke Other, a Lexlslatlve Lobby Merchant—A Decidedly Detestable Animal. Says the Syracuse Union: In February, 1861, after South Carolina. Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Louisiana had seceded, and niter open hostilities had commenced—“ during the dark and perilous hours that hung over our country ” at that time, Lyman Tremain stood up In Twaddle Hall, Albany, and made a speech which disgusted and was repudiated by his then political associates, and from which we take the following brief extracts: You may sing hosannahs to your Union: you may attempt to influence the weak and wavering by the cry, “ You must not back down, we must sustain' Lincoln and ratify the Chicago platform; all these things will blow over in a short time!” And yet these facta stare you in the face. • *» * ***». THE SOUTH HAS HAD THE MOST TERRIBLE PROVOCATION TO WHICH CIVILIZED MAN HAS EVER BEEN SUBJECTED. # # * * * # 1 wish to say that, traitorous though it may be, 1 stand here to oppose the policy of war with the South, now, hereafter, and forever, *»#«»• It is enough that now I am prepared to take the responsibility of saying, I am resolved to resist it here and to resist it everywhere. “And if that be treason, moke the most of it.” These choice excerps are but specimens of three or four columns of Mr. Tremaln’s elaborated convictions—convictions which he held until a year or two later, when, like Dickinson and other rottens who aided in disrupting the Democratic party by the encouragement and assistance they gave the Southern “ engineers of disunion,” he sold himself body and bones to the King of the Lobby in a bargain for office. If wo turn to the Senate and judge of that body by the character of Its presiding officer, Lieutenant Governor Alvord, wo shall find very little ground for giving It confidence in advance of its action. In political knavery Alvord out-Tremalne Tremain. His antecedents are very bad. He was for years the yoke fellow of Fernando Wood and the Dr. Bradford, who has turned up a defaulter to the tune of $40,000 In the office of the Public Administrator of No., York city; and like Dickinson and Tremain lie passed over to the Republicans for office. Whether in first, second or third house of the Legislature, he is well known as the representative of the Syracuse salt monopoly; and without being personal on those who sit under his desk, we know that the class of men who recognize the legitimacy of the use of money in forwarding legislative measures arc represented there, and so represented by the special aid of Alvord in the election last fall. “A Fellow FecUnar Makes us Wondrous Kind.” One of the editors of this paper, during a recent visit to Philadelphia, wrote a couple of letters, which were published In the Herald. lathe first one reference was made to that notorious mi3cegenist ) Toad. Stevens, and his ardent love for one negro at least. There was nothing stated in that paragraph which is not Well known to every citizen of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The contemptible fellow who edits the Lafayette Courier, has seen fit to apply an opprobious epithet to the author of the paragraph in question, and as he had a gentleman at his elbow who Imparted the information which he thinks warranted the indecorous language he used, all we have to ■ay to the aforesaid fellow, is, that a friend at our elbow, who was long a resident of Lafayette, imparts the intelligence that the editor of the Ccmrfer has himself been charged with being upractical miscegenist, which fact is well known to all Lafayettians. This, perhaps, uccomte for the “ mill in the eocoanut." His ^ovetor gTEVKNS is not surprising. “ A fellow feeling mskes us wondrous kind!” Fttc la LingW

An i)ctOf acts that:

“ All bonds, treasury notes, and other obligations of the United States, shall be exempt from taxation by or under State or municipal

authority,”

The thirteenth section of t|jis law provides as follows: '* r “ The words ‘ obligation or other security of the United States,’ used in ‘this act, shall be held to include and mean all bonde, coupons, national currency, United States notes, treasury notes, fractional notes, checks for money of authorized officers of the United States, certificates of indebtedness, certificates of deposit, stomps, and other representatives of value of whatever denomination, will have been or may be issued under any act of Congress.” The above sections of law speak for themselves. There they are; read them. This low was passed by Republican leaders as one of the cold, calculating, settled-upon steps in their policy of building up a moneyed aristocracy and reducing the mass of our people to that condition that will require them, in the language of the Gazette, to be taken care of by capital; to gather around its princely mansion, and receive from Its hand, os stock does, its allowance. Congress has stricken down your State banks, and substituted national; it is now agitating the project of crushing your State railroads, and substituting national railroads; and why is it doing these things? because it can then, whenever it pleases, and thinks it has got the people sufficiently broken down to risk it, exempt all these corporations from taxation, and thus aid the capitalists who own them. That this is a part of the ultimate purposes of the Republican leaders, there can be no doubt. But they are becoming alanned on this subject, since President Jofixsorr has disbanded the army and announced that he takes the Democratic side of tins question, and goes for equal taxation. The Republicans supposed that they were to have the use ot the military, and of mob law, on the cry of disloyalty, against any man who dared to sav anything against their acts; and, hence, that they had the people thoroughly down in the dust already; but, thanks to President Johnson, he has disbanded the military, snubbed mob law by restoring habeas corpus, and has proclaimed the wickedness of unequal taxation. All this has emboldened the people once more to begin to lift up their heads, and canvass measures; and, hence, the knees of the Republican leaders are already smiting together from fear. Hence they hasten off and get up a case on which they take the opinion of the Attorney General, whose legal reputation is such that his opinion, unsustained by authorities, is conclusive ou any question; and he says that county bonds are taxable. Well, who ever said they were not? Is it supposed the people will confound county bonds with United States oonds? ^ . . What the people wish to know is, why the Republicans exempted three thousand millions of United States bonds, and treasury notes, etc., from taxation to accommodate the rich and oppress the poor? The Attorney General says stock in banks, Insurance companies, etc., based on United States bonds is taxable. As be says so, we will take it to be so, and hope his saying will prove correct; and then we want the thing watched to see if even these stocks are taxed this year, and what amount of them 1 Because, if they are taxed this year, they will not be next Our men who held these stocks, if It turns out tbaf they are taxable, need only to haye them held in Europe, or in another State, while the bank is managed here, and then the whole thing escapes taxation. Or, whbh some of our men are now doing, we understand, they have only to make an arrangement with a banker in Cinciunait, Louisville, or Chicago, to take their stock in the banks, etc,, on the 31st of December, giving them greenbacks for them, to hold till the 2d of January. This the banker is willing to do, as no business Is done on New Year’s. On the 2d the stock and greenbacks arc re-exchanged, and our rich capitalist reports to our Assessor, when he comes round, that on the 1st of January his property was all greenbacks, which, not being taxable, he refuses to give in. We understand that this game has already commenced among our rich men. When such wicked laws are passed, there can be no hope for the people; and when a corrupt, unprincipled party of money Jobbers is in power, wicked laws will be passe 1. When the wicked rule the people mourn.

party before the war, when they were dlsunionista. He acted with them, during the war, when they became pretended unionists, as they discovered they could further their hostile purposes against the South by thus turning

hypocrites.

And, now that the war is over, and the Republicans have again fallen into their old position of simple disunionlsts, Johnson again plants himself in opposition to their schemes, and will bring them to his feet or abandon them as a party. We extract from an article in the National Intelligencer, supposed to have been approved, before publication, by

Mr. Johnson himself:

.It may as well be dearly understood that the present antagonism between this furious faction of radical revolutionists and the Presi?

President JnknMn—His CsnslatSBacy. I Th* Execution®! the Murderer of W. AMt>Y Johnson opposed the Republican j ^ horrible murder of W. E. Nelson, a

citizen of Muncle, Indiana, about two months Gilman, Illinois, has already been noticed In oyr columns^ as also the arrest and com ictioi of his murderer, a man named F. Ji. Harper, who was hung at Watseka, Illinois, a few days since. * He made a lengthy confession on the gallows- The following is the substance of what hoWd about the killing of

Nelson:

ThOy had a desperate struggle, and rolled dawn the embankment from the track into the him, and left him weltering in his gore. He does not pretend to account for the cprpse of the murdered man being found on the track, but supposes that the murdered man, as he was not quite dead when left, alone, may have nansyed sufficiently to crawl upon the track. (This accounts fbr the manner m which blood was found in a pool in the ditch and scattered along the track.) He most emphatically denied having dragged bis victim’s corpse up to the track and left it there for an engine to pass

over.

Harper acknowledged having contemplated IW# murders previous to this one. He said that when the first draft was ordered tie Was in Indiana, and that a young Germannamed Burekhardt gave his name to the enrolling officer, tor which he determined to kill the communicative Teuton. Burekhardt enlisMfi, went out in the service, and returned hhme on'fUriough seme months after. Harper says that he went to Burckbardt’s house ten or twelve rttmes to get a chance to kill him, but never was able to accomplish his object When Burck* -- - - - -

xi. is reoeweu, However, as boou mm uiey again, as certainly as that right and wrong, truth and falsehood, continue their ceaseless conflict for the supremacy. We do not charge that the Radical faction is inconsistent In its attack upon the President. On the contrair that fact proves its consistency; but the President is likewise consistent when he purities his own policy in defiance of theirs. Let us see what opinion the President entertained of them In February, 1861, when the doctrines of

Is Legislation by the Republicans alone for the Hlch, and for Officers! Example 1. The Republicans of Indiana still clamor for a protective tariff. We have been arguing to our people that it enabled the New Englanders to extort ten cents a yard, at least, from us, on every yard of calico, muslin, etc. we purchased, to put into their pockets. Luckily, we have just fallen upon the Philadelphia Ledger, from which we clip tue following: We have the authority of the Sconomist fbr the statement that the present cost of making a “Sprague” print (calico) is 17 cents a yard; but the price at the mill is 27 cents a yard. It is bard to sec bow it Is that manufactures paying profits like these need any further protection. Additional duties will only bring additional cast to the consumer, and Ml for the profit of the companies already dividing such large profits to their stockholders. Example 2. The Auditor of State had a princely compensation under the general law, which he still receives. In addition, the extra Legislature, by trick, as in the case of Governor Morton, in the guise of ]iretended houserent, gave the Auditor of State $6,000 in addition, under the name of insurance fees, just the amount of extra over his salary they gave Morton. We quote from the correspondent of the New Albany Ledger: 4; . The main object of the law is developed in the third section, which reads as follows: Section 3. The Auditor of State shall be entitled to Jive dollars In each case, for the examination of the statement, and investigation of the evidences of investment, and two dollars ibr each certificate of authority, issued under the provisions of this act, to be paid by the agent or agents applying for the same. The penalty for the violation of the act is a fine, in any sum not exceeding one thou land

uon oi me couri. u tificates of authority to the agents must be made twice a year, hence it will be seen that the law is a “ good thing ” fbr the Auditor of State. A ease in point will illustrate this. The Home Insurance -Company of Now York has eighty-one (81) agents in Indiana. The Auditor gets a fee of 6-'> for each examination of its statements, and $2 for each certificate of authority issued to its agents. This makes the snug fee-from this company of $167 semi-annu-ally and $334 annually. It Is estimated that the law will give the Auditor about $6,000 a year additional compensation, thus increasing to that extent the pecuniary advantages of thu

office.

This five thousand dollars is so wucit levied upon the people of Indiana for the benefit of the Auditor, just as tho tariffis a levy for the benefit of the New England moneyed aristocracy. The rate of insurance charged to those who take policies depends on the expenses and losses. The expenses are charged in the rate of insurance. Domestic companies can charge as high as foreign are forced to, to cover expenses. Both thus make an extra levy on the people; the foreign company pays the levy into the pocket of the Auditor.' The domestic company puts it into tho pockets of the stockholders. We presume ihe Auditor was in favor of the extra session! Groan on people; your officers are fat. Massacbusetta Politics. Governor Andrew’s message, delivered to the Massachusetts Legislature, to-day makes general direct issues with what have hitherto been considered doctrines oi Massachusetts radicalism. He opposes reorganization on the basis of loyal voters of white and black, as sure to lead to anarchy and chaos, and argues that the effort to keep the ret>el leaders out of political control Is unwise. No reorganization can be valuable or secure in which the natural accustomed leaders of the community are not the ibremostmovers. s The above is from the Cincinnati Gazette. Since President Johnson has notified the Republicans that he shall stop their feed unless they walk up to his policy, they are hurrying along as fast os possible. If Mr. Johnson should make U a condition that the Republicans ahoqVd -support Jeff. Davis for the next -Freatdeht, or leave the treasury, they would ■bold on to the treasury, and go fbr Jeff. Of thistbereean be no doubt. * — ». ^r : : . ; v . . —James B.

“ l entirely accord with .

that last resolution. I think all we have to do poorer than it was before the war began. > prepare the public mind by the.daily and ^ seems that we can afford to spend rly presentation of the doctrine oi disunion, money than ever on foreign Importat!

Speaking in the Senate, of the United States in

reply to Jefferson Davis, he said:

“ But, Mr. President, recurring to what I said yesterday, there are two parties in this country that want to broak up tho Government. Who arc they? Tbe.nuUifiers proper of the South, the secessionists or disunionlsts, for 1 use them all as synonymous terms. There is a portion of them who per se desire the disruption of the Government for purposes of their own aggrandisement. I do not charge upon them that they want to break up the Government for the purpose of affecting slavery; yet I charge that the breaking up of the Government would have that effect; the result would be the same. Who el se is for breaking up this Government? I refer to some bad men in tiie North. There It a set of men called Abolitionists, and they want to break up tbe Government. They are disunionlsts; they are secessionists; they arc nulliflers. Sir, theA-bo-litionista and the dialinguished Senator from Mississippi, (Mr. Jefferson Davis,) and his party both stand In the same attitude, to attain the same end, a dissolution of tbe Union; the one party believing that it will result in thelf

ie other be-,

vermroW of

ry. Who ore the die-

unionists of the North ? Who are the “ allies ” of the distinguished Senator from Mississippi? We find that a resolution was adopted at the anniversary of the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society, convened in Boston, in these words: “ Resolved, That the one great issue before the country is the dissolution of tbe Union, in comparison with which all other Imam with the slave power are as dust In tile'balance: Therefore we give ourselves to the work of an nulling this covenant wlthdeathoaeieantiil to our own innocence and the speedy and everiast-

ing overthrow oCtiw slave system.”

“ This resolution was passed by the Abolition Anti-Slavery Society of Massachusetts. They think a dissolution of tbe Union would restnt In tbe destruction of slavery, and absolve them from this “ covenant with death,” and attest their innocence so far as the Government 1 concerned. On that we find that Hr. Wendel

e the following remarks*

“ I entirely accord with the sentiments of

olt

is to _

hourly presentation of the doctrine ot disunion Events which, fortunately for us, th6 Government itself and other parties are producing with unexampled rapldjty, are our best aid.” Mr. Johnson then proceeded at length to cite other authorities in support of his position that the Abolitionists who followed Wendell Phillips, Lloyd, Garrison, and the Liberator, and who now hall Charles Sumnet and Thaddeus Stevens as their leaders, were disunionlsts, conspirators and traitors. Ills mass of evidence was overwhelming, and he resumed as

follows;

~ »•— o x-vriw.. if they are not the allies of the secessionists and disunlonlsts of the South? Are they not all laboring and toiling to accomplish the same great end—the overthrow of this groat nation‘of ours? Their object is the same. They are both employing, to some extent, the same

means. * * *

“Mr. President, I have alluded to this subject of “ allies” in order to show'who is engaged in this unholy and nefarions work of breaking up this Union. TTe find firstthe run-mad Abolitionists of the Nortli. They are socesslenlsts; they are for disunion; they are for dissolution. When we turn to the South, we see the redhot disunionlsts and secessionists at the some work. 1 think it comes with a very bad grace for them to talk about the “allies” of others who are trying to save the Union and preserve

the Constitution.

“ I went back yesterday and showed that South Carolina had held this doctrine of seces-

sion at a very early day—a very short Unto af-

ter she entered into the Articles of Confederation, and after she had entered the Union by

which and through which tbe independence of

the country was achieved. What else do we

find at a very early dav ? Go to Massachusetts

during the war or 1812, and the Hartford Convention, and there yea will find men engaged

in this treasonable and unhallowed work. Even in 1845, Massachusetts, in manifesting her great opposition to the annexation of Texas to the United States, passed a resolution resolving herself out of the Union. She seceded; she went off by her own set because Texas was admitted into tbe Union. TmiaWe find South Carolina and Massachusetts taking

the lead In this secession movement,” These extracts very clearly show in what es.

timation the President held the radical element of the North when be was risking life and all

in defence of the Union of tbe fathers. His invective was poured upon their guilty heads like a stream of consuming fire. He regarded them as architects of their country’s ruin, as allies in a crusade of destruction with the secessionists of the South, and with them jointly responsible, before God and man, for the blood, the miseries, the tears, and the unuumhered woes which were then rushing like a swift

mountain avalanche upon this unhappy na-

tion.

They were miserable outlaws from bis school of patriotism then; and does any one suppose that bis opinion of them now is any higher, when he finds them still at their old trade of disunion ? Even during the vmr, it is familiar to the public mind that he did not spare them. Every one renieml*rs the famous syllogism which he put in a speech at Nasb-

r at once deserted from the service, with the

Ing 1

toinac, and there killing him, but finding he

pel Ini

tention of following Burekhardt to the Po-

ports, etc.

^ Now.Jhe country has just ^me through ^ nearly $s|§00j)0ofo00. Just that sum has be

syllogism which he put in a speech at Nash ville, whereby he proved that an Abolitio was a secessionist, that a secessionist was an

Abolitionist, and that both were disunionlsts. The term Abolitionists has, It is true, lost much of its signification, but the men to whom the syllogism applied then are to-day the Radicals who assail him. But if it is contended that neither can the former term of“dis-

unionlst” apply to thcm;-tet ursee. The President prbVed that fn the opening

stages of the rebellion, and for many years prior, they were and had been in favor of a dissolution of the Union. Now that the war fbr the Union is over, do they yield their point? The Southern secessionists, their old “ allies,” do; but they adhere to their old heresy by declaring that eleven States have been lopped off, and are no longer members of the Union., The President held in February, 1861, that no power existed anywhere to declare a State out ef the Union. He holds the same opinion now, when Congress, under the lead of Sumner and Stevens, is aiming to do that very thing. He announced in February, 1861, that the men, wherever and whoever they might be, who made such an attempt, were conspirators and traitors, and we have the best reason to believe that his mind has undergone no change

on that point.

Abont Railroads and Cities. Fort Wayne is a lucky city. She is at a point In the State to which foreign cities all find It necessary to build railroads, in competition for business. Cincinnati is now trying to build one to that point; and, on Saturday, in an interview with some gentlemen from New York, we learned that the arrangements were now completed to build the Fort Wayne and Southern road to Louisville, Kentucky, in order to draw the Southern trade to New York Instead of letting i f drift to Baltimore and Philadelphia. This road will pass east of this city and injure it. But we can check-mate that road to some extent by making the Vincennes road, and thus drawing the Southern trade, on its way to Fort Wayne and New York, through this city. Every day satisfies us that Indienapolis is gone up without jig builds more railroads. And she needs must have the Vincennes road to accomodate her manufacturers, or she cannot retain them here.

Capital Taking Care ot tke Poor. Thus the Cincinnati Gazttfe entitles its article noticing contributions to thi poor:" Tbit is exactly the Republican doctrine.' Ia& the Government take core of th* rich, and the rich take care of the poor, is the fundamental maxim of the leaders of that party. The theory is this, and it is a worldly wise one, viz: that by putting the poor into the custody of the rich, the rich can control their votes. The Democratic theory is that the Government shall treat all el asses alike, tax the property of aU alike; to Bo/manpqr interfere with the right of all, on equal terms, to take care of Md ** toiM««|uU*it in voting, in your charities, let not your left hand know what your right does,

could not effect this, came home, and, for the time, had to give up his murderous plans. On his return home he went to Gilman, and was there employed by a Mr. Maxon, on a a farm. For some reason Mr. Maxon discharged him, and he, in revenge, stole and sold some of Mr. Maxon’s cord wood. Mr. M. forced him to pay for it, and be, actuated by a malicious spirit of hatred in consequence, determined on killing Maxon. He returned home and remained there six weeks, but he save he could not rest, and bad to come back te'kill Maxon. Before he could get a chance te do so, however, the opportunity of another murder offered itself; ana he killed poor Nelsob. Se fully had be made up his mind to the murder of Maxon, that he assured the Sheriff that even if he had not been arrested for the murder of Nelson, he would not have left that part of the country before be bad killed

We must be careful, says an exchange, what we are about. The importations last week amountod to over $6,000,000, gold valuation. In the five and a half months which have expired of thq current fiscal year, they amount to $127,000,000; fbr the whole fiscal year, ending 30th of June next, they will Bot be leas than $260,000,000. This is at the port of New York alone, and is over and above all importations at Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, frontier

ports, etc,

me through an he war has cost

«m,wv,wv,uw. Just that sum has been spent, lost, sunk. By that sum the notion is " ' an. Yet

money than ever on foreign importations— though the duty on such Importations Is from twelve to twenty-five per cent, heavier than It used to be, and the customs revenue is averaging half a million in gold each working day. The seeming anomaly will not long bear examination. We can not afford to spend the money we are spending on foreign Importations. We could not afford it if goods were at old prices, and, in fact, we are so ravenous fbr foreign goods that we are paying two and three prices to the manufacturers of England, Germany and France for the goods they are sending us. Foreign manufacturers are all growing rich at our expense, are so busy that they decline new orders. If. Instead of spending four yean, in a wasteful war—which cost us about forty dollan per head per annum for each of the four yean—wo hail been induttrioualy engaged In productive Islmr, and had been practicing due economy the while, we could barely afford the extravagance in which

we are now indulging.

Unless something occurs to check the present spendthrift tendency of the people of tbe United States, the collapse credited by Mr. McCulloch may be upon us before the two years of expansion he expects shall have elapsed. It is of nations au of men. A man may wear a bold front, and keep up ids appearances long after his subsistence has departed from him. So long as the bonk discounts his paper, be continues to enjoy credit, and to possess so much money that tbe worm suspects not his losses. But, sooner or later, the truth leaks out, and he Is confbssed a bankrupt. Tbe people of the United States are not yet bankrupt, but they have lost so much money in tbe last four yean that nothing but severe economy and a sedulous prosecution of productive industry for years to come can prevent their becoming bankrupt ere

long.

Great wan beget commercial revolutions. The British war against Napoleon was followed by the commercial lapse of 1819; our war of lel8-’14 by the collapse of 18I6-’17; tbe Crimean war by the collapse of 1867. Historians explain each of these collapses on different principles, and from their reasoning it would seem that the rcvolusions did not necessarily result from the wan, but were the fruit of other and distinct causes. This may be; but It Is a curious commercial cowoldence, that in this commercial age, great wan have invariably been followed by a severe eommereial crisis; and as of all transactions wars arc tbe most wasteful of human Industry and the products of lalmr, it is not unreasonable to suspect that the coincidence is not purely acciden-

I In the year 1866, and In the early part of 1857, W arnings were not wanted of the Inevitable consequences of the over-trading then in progress. The crisis of 1867 was foretold many times before it came. But no one listened to Cassandra. Everything was serene. Importers could not Import goods enough for the jobJobbers could not keep stock enough

bers. Jobbers could not keep stock enougl for their dealers. Dealers could not supply tn public fast enough—that public which had its pockets full of railway bonds and stocks, mercantile paper and other paper evidences of debt—all of which was for the time being money, and would buy anything, from a browustone mansion to a red flannel shirt. When the evil hour came, and the paper evidences of debt lost their purchasing power, the public could not pay what they owed, the dealers failed on the jobbers, the jobbers failed on the Importers, the importers failed on the foreign manufacturers, the railways failed on ‘Vfr bondholders, the cities and counties of est repudiated their debts, and the whole errial community went down in one gen-

the AYest commeret

.erarcrash. , u ,

There i# something striking and wholesome, in the reminiscence. Now, as then. Importers can not order goods fast enough from Europe, steamers can not convey them in quantities sufficient, jobbers can not keep stock enough on hand, dealers are worked to death to supply customers, and tbe public pockets are crammed with paper evidences of debt—legal tenders, National Bonk notes, seven-thirties, debt certificates. Quartermaster’s vouchers, deposit certificates, gold notes—all of them possessing power and enabling the holder to pay fifty-six cents a yard for cotton cloth, one dollar a pair for stockings, and five dollan a yard for Lyons silks. How long can this sort of

thing lust?

The Secretary of the Treasury—an old banker ami scientific financier—warns us that within two yean we shall hare a general collapse. We shrug our shoulder*, and go on buying foreign goods. French importers say, “ Would you nave us stop importing when we can sell every case of goods at a profit of ten per cent?” Jobbers laugh at contracting their business as long as dealers strip their stores bare as often as they fill it Deaton can not be expected to let their stock run down so long as trade remains so brisk. And the gay old public, with its pockets full of money—in forty-five different shapes—spends what it has in its old freehanded way. If it could but be persuaded to retrench Its expenditure—to see that when you subtract two from four, the remainder, in spite of all the metaphysics and fancy financiering in the world, is not six, but two—the catastrophe might be averted. But do people believe Cassandra any more now than In the old Tro-

jan days?

Wise men—the rare few who will be floating after tbe storm—will set tbeir houses In order. The Secretary may or may not succeed in contracting the currency. If he does he will cause the collapse, as Mr. Chase caused the Wall street collapse of 1864. If he does not, it will come without him. That it must come no thoughtful person can doubt, in view of what is patient to all. But meanwhile old John Public will order new opera cloaks for Mrs. P. and the Misses F., puffing his lifty cent Havana, will berate licentious presses for

the most astonished when a hurricane arises some fine morning and sweeps him from the financial surface. Burned to tteAni.—Xgirl eight years bid, daughter of a 'widow lady residing In Lawname of Kuhn, in putting

—TheDelpM Journal copies a squib from the Indianapolis Journal, casting reflections upon Major Milrpvin regard to his votes in toe Legislature. That the Major voted “ no ” on a great many questions Is very true. He voted on the reiieal of the 13th Article of the constitution, wnich prohibits negro emigration to this State; he voted no on the State Bond swindle; he voted no on the proposition to give tbe editor of the Indianapolis Journal $100,000 to print the Adjutant-General’s report—a document that would neither honor nor benefit the State to tbe amount of a five cent shinplaster. This is what galls the Journal. Ave defy either of the Journal men to point to a single measure that would honor the State or benefit the people, that Major MUroy did not vote for. It Is a source of regret that more such men were not there to vote “ no”-Delphi Timet. Destructive Fire at Plymouth—Lons $250,000.—Early on AVednesday morning last, a fire broke out in Hewitt A Woodward’s brick block in Plymouth, and before its ravages were stayed property valued at $220,000 was destroyed. We clip the following concerning the losses from the Plymouth Democrat, of

Thursday last:

Tbe following persons are losers to a greater or less extent In this terrible conflagration which has laid in ruins and ashes the best portion of our town. We do not pretend to enumerate the amount of Individual losses, as it is Impossible, even at this writing (Wednesday evening) to approach anything like a correct es-

timate of them:

On Michigan street the three story brick building was tbe first to burn, oc cupied as follows: First floor by J. M. Dale k Co, dry goods, and Davidson A Co., clothing; second floor, by Mrs. Dunham, millinery goods, and Phillip A Johnson, attorneys; Dr. Brooke and Dr. Long; in the third story was a public halt. The second building on the south was that of John Paul, occupied by him as a boot and shoe store. Tbe third was the boot and shoe store

of GeJVge Koch.

The fourth was Corbin’s block. In which were the grocery store of T. A. Simons, the drug store of G. Blain A Co., the grocery of Ab. Becker A Co., and. the elothing establishment of A. Lochenbergfcr; on the second floor was A. Holtsendorff, barber; M. A. O. Packard, attorney, and a public ball. North of AVoodward's block the following buildings were consumed: First the saloon of Jacob Wlckell. Second, the bakery and grocery of Wm. Hill, occupied in tbe second story by the two Drs. Borton.

Coons A Oo n each belonging to Horace Carbin, Mr. Corbin’s loss Is heavy, there being little insurance en any of bis buildings, nearly all the other buildings were more or

less Insured * ' ‘
