I,ibby PrisüiiXetv Year's Eve,
C3, '64. 'Tufts twelve o'clock! Within my prison dreary, My head upon my hind sitting so weary, Scanning tbe future, musing upon the past, Pondering the fate that here my lot is cast, The hoarse cry of the sentry, pacing his beat, Wakens the echoes of the silent street; -All ii well:" Ah, is it 99 1 M fellow captives sleeping here the barred window strictest watch is keeping, Dreaming of home, and wife, and prattling child Of the sequestered Tale, the mountain wild Tell me, when cruel morn shall break again, Wilt thou repeat the sentinel's refrain ; "All is well!" And then my country, wounded , pale and bleeding, : i Wy children deaf to a Fend mother s pleading Stabbing with cruel hate the nurturing breast, To which their infancy in love was prea'c Recount tby wrongs, thy many sorrows name; Then to the nation if thou canst proclaim: "All is well !" But through the clouds the sun i? slowly breakingHope from her long devp sleep is awakening: Speed the' time ! Father 1 w hen the bow of peace, Spanning the gulf, shall bid the tempest cease When f jemen, clasping each other by the hand, Shall shout together in a united land: "All id well ! Tlio Icoplc avIio want to Ie TaxedThe New York Evuung i'osisofthc opinion that the pcojde of the United States arc anxious to have Congress perfect the new tux laws as soon as possible, and put them in operation, and, with a spirit of sublime contentment, similar to that of the spinste- who resided in a city captured and riven over to the soldiery, are only impatient for the ravishing to begin. Like the pigs inhabiting some millenial country whose name we do not remember, which ran about tho streets with knives and forks stuck in their baeks jstjucaling to be eaten, they are, in contem plation of the Post, spoiling for somebody to commence the work of consumption. It is to be hoped that this is really the case. It is the mirk of a great and noble spirit ; to accept with cheerfulness things that are j inevitable; but, it is a spirit of devotion wineli even innriyrs in uuss iuirut envy, 1 to court Kitcrin- fur its ownsikc. mnl voluntarily turn the screw for one's ex- j tinction. . . . . . Aiiiniany a taini na- gone numunj, ain lisalui-singing to the stake who howled dismally at the first touch of the firebrand. It may be an impeachment of human nature, but it is nevcrless true, that men endure with much more heroism torturcs in possibility than do those that are oresent and actual. (Ireat willin-nessl of spirit is not unf'reuently aceompariied j by very preceptiblc weakness of the flesh. Taxation in the abstract, has not hitherto! hem numbered among the blessings which j governments confer upon the people. In' jits effects upon the individual, it has been ! considcred to partake considerably more of i a rrievous than of a joyous character; and.j so far as our experience goes, wc confess ! wc have seen a iar greater number of our i loyal and patriotic fellow citizens willing to ee the burthens of taxation cast upon their friends than to (all upon their own persons or property. It is one of the cases T.hieh men accept with little reluctance. the doctrine of vicarious compensation; and perhaps might bo cited with advan-j tage, by our theologians as proof of the ! soundncss of that dogma, deeply imbed-; 1 ded in the instincts if humanity. The bankers, brokers, capitalists, money-changers, speculator.1 Mid stock-jobbers of Wall street, who supply the public sen- ! timcnt for the most exemplary and conscientious public instructor, the New York j L'von'htj 'st, would doubtless be very wiU; t M.(, the laboring and industrious . , . masses of their fellow citizens put under the screw and squeezed to supply means to pay interest and principal of the pjVti..n.ent recurities in which they trade or have invested. Convinced as they are, that a rcat national debtisnrcat national blest -ing, they arc beginning to discover that tlie rinciple may be carried too far in practice: at least too far for their convenience. Splendid as was tho device of man. ufacturiug public promises by steam machinery, and cordially as they welcomed it for the time, as the greatest financial invention of this or any other country, it Is now occurring to them that in order to its perfection, a second part should have been aided to pay the promises which were created by tho first: which, in the joy of the occasion and amid the hurry of events, was unfortunately neglected or forgotten. The last foregoing paragraph is upon the assumption that the taxation spirit of the Tost owes its origin to breeze that blow from Wall street. Hut it should not be forgotton that the Post is one of the representatives of the malignant bramli of the Administration party a branch whose stores of hatred, too copious to be all bestowed upon the South, havo fpread over and included the rest of mankind. This section of the party had no sooner adopted the doctrine that the last man and the last dollar might ho expended in the prosecution of the war, than it progressed to the position that the last man and the last dollar mutt be expended, with a pal
yable impatience that tho expe
nditurc
should be perfected as soon as possible.
It was not only willing to go back to Plymouth Rock and Jamestown, but wanted to go there. Its religion is politics, and its politics religion. Its ideal for the future is a "Fifth Monarchy" a reign of the .Saints; and the process by which it is j to be accomplished. Beccher's ''Baptism of Blood," by means of which the land is at once to be purged and the wicked exterminated. Under the influence of the spirit, where the means are not at hand to kill bv violence, it would slowly murder bv taxation. It may be thought that with this highly sublimated state of the religious susceptibilities, a propensity for cent per-rcnt, note-shaving and stock operations is incompatible; but this is a mistr.ke. The pious brigands of Italy "partake" before they go upon a robbing expedition, and never forgot to lay a portion of their spoils upon the holy shrines which they encounter. Cin . Kr.qu rcr. The Republican Rational Convolition The Threatened Holt. The following is from The X io Xution, the new Fremont paper in New York: "In answer to the inecssently repeated ue&ti:n, 'Will you submil to the decision of the Baltimore convention V and to the admonition, 'If you do not submit to it ycu will endanger the great Union party and the republican party wc would say that this is a confusion of words and ideas. Which of the two do we endanger by denying the infallibility of the Baltimore convention and disbelieving its sincerity the republican parly, or the Union party '( Those are two distinct things. The republican party, as vre have said, has it course; it is as old as its founders and nothing can save it from dissolution. The Union par0" is another material together. AVe be long to this; but who compose it who hav,; a rir:ht to speak in its name ? Is it lit tl-k ! S . . "v ..,A. w.M...im ' -vokcJ the lItimorc convention? AVe answer, io. J he Baltimore convention . belongs essentially to the republican party which convened it; but the new Union party, the party of thvi future, which is now in couis of formation in cverv Sta'c will doubtless comprise as many democrats as republicans. Why should it then submit to the latter? Why should it receive ,,n'cr tft0 ausjuwi. oi death : ny sll,,1(l t, fllturc bc inaugurated hj the ''The new nation, whore existence we hope to see manifested befoie the tenth cd June, can have no connection with tin; old parties, the abuses, incapacity and want of patriotism of which have rendered its ereatmn necessary. How could it agree to their decision ? Wc wish to get rid of all this party machinery, of political dynasties such as the Blair, Seward and Weed dis jucs, and of packed Conventions plotted! alonsr in advance and held within reach of White House patronage, such as this Baltimore convention. "It is a confusion of 'vortls ami of ideas tohincre the salvation of the Union and of the principles of absolute liberty upon the triumph of the republican party. Bepubbean politicians and all others are equally i corrupt and worn out. The new nation mut have new men, new devotion, new energy, now intelligence, and we shall seek these elements where they arc to be found amid the mas. of the people. Wc must consult them, probably, about the twenty-fourth of 3Iaj, in a central convention at Cleveland, free from baleful Washington influences; and, after tho people have spoken we shall carry out their decisions at all risks and hazards. 'In no event shall we submit their decisions to the politicians, and wc shall incessantly repeat to the people that they have no more cruel enemies than these same politicians, claiming as they do the exclusive privilege of thinking and acting in their name, while they have in reality no other object than to fatten at their expCllrC. "The lialtimore convention i.s nothing but a market-place, where the people are to be sold by the politicians to the highest bidder; therefore wc can have nothing to do with the lialtimore convention. "If it proposes to oppose the will of the people in case the ?ame should not indorse its projects regarding its Presidential can didate, let the convention but attempt to play a factious (sedieious)part; but if, on the contrary, it should receive a better in spiration, perceiving the usclessness id' struggling, and understanding that in a re publican country, the voice of the people is sovereign and should be obeyed, then let it join the great movement and it will be welcome. "What wc wish is, in the words of the Syracuse State League: That the claims of all may be considered, and the people enabled to act intcllgently, and not be car ried by a c; r Pythagoras swore by air and water. A good many people now ewcar by brandy and water.
Tiling Financial. From the New York Dajr Rook. It is pretty generally conceded now, tkat th? only hope of the war part- in the North rests on starving out, or breaking
down, or cxnaustmg the lood resources ot ' crminer, is one üeservmg oi attention ; irovo, bv an abolition soldier, resulting in the South, and thereby forcing them to Whatever else may bethought fit. he j the killing of the former. I'more uumitsubmission, through their sheer inability certainly has d-ne a good service in stig-1 i-;lled outrage cannot be found in the Ion
to furnish subsistence for themselves and their armies, from their own resources. On the other hand, if they cannot be starved out, it is not denied by the intelli gent portion of the north war men that this war can be kept up for ten years, and that if thus prolonged, it will not cost this portion of the country less than one thousand millions a year, at the lowest sum, and as each succeeding year of national debt brings increased inflation, the cost of supporting an army and navy becomes yearly greater, and a ten years' war would pile up a debt which is only expressed by the sum of fortJ thnUS'i tul miUt'nus J thtllars. To speculate upon such a result is not so visionary as it would seem at a glance. The banners of the northern war party are inscribed :fight to the last." Those of the South read aho '-fiirht to the last." Now, one or the other must give way. The South through the lack of food aud raiment, or the North through lack of monev. for it is rurmuy which is to close the war on this side of 3Iason and Dixon's line, unless starvation closes ii on the other. When the Washington government tell the people of the North that the floating 1.000,000,000 United States currency mut be invested in United States bonds at per cent, within sixty da . or it will be reduced in value every succeeding month after that date, the people will conclude that it is about time to let the South go. The Davis government have retired five hundred millions of their currency b- this peculiar, and rather questionable method, but the war party is stronger than ever, in fact there appears to be no other party in that section. The South are done with luxuries; they have nothing left but the necessaries of life, but of those there appears to be no lack. Xot so with us; we never, in the whole history of the country, were so luxurious, never so fairly rolled in wealth, never lavished money to such an extent, never made huge fortunes so rapidly, never spent them so freely. Should we be reduced, could webe reduced to a point where we would be obliged to abandon the luxuries of life for an hour, in order to prosecute this war, peace, some sort of peace, would be had ere the hour was up. This war with us is a sordid, mercenary, brutal and devilish spirit, but the great mass of its supporters think it pays ; when it is supposed not to pay, it will be stopped. As for "patriotism," or that oflensive European importation now substituted for it, so popular with the war party, "loyalty," a term smacking of courts, and crowns, and throned, and moral rottenness. tobe loyal is to be seduced into tho army by the sum of livi hundred dollars, or to hold a fat Avar contract worth fifty-thousand dollais a year. Money is plenty at 7 per cent, with good collaterals, but not easy to speculators who have nothing more tangible than "stocks" to deposit. Money lenders are shy of Wall street securities. Speculation still runs high. Everything sells. Mining stocks are caught up rapid ly, and now bubbles of this sort are candi' at with great avidity, because they are sup posed to present a better chance for a mar gin. Old stocks of all kinds are up too high for the outsiders to indulge in. The late decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in the case of the "Quick silver Mine" of California, will put millions into the pockets of the lucky holders of that .stock. Wall street is as crazy this week as ever; anything sells, aLd although immense losses are made by the spasmodic tumble of certain fancies weekly, and scores of used up speculators crawl olT a a badly "smashed up," the sight does not at all intimidate the outsiders; hundreds rush in to take their places and get crippled in turn. IVcw Africa. It i.s said that Sumner is about to introduce a resolution into the Senate to change the name of the United States to New Africa. Exchange. That would be a very appropriate designation for the country under the Abolition policy that is now being pursued. 4 An KuRMl. At a christening, while a minister was making the certificate, he forgot the date, and happened to say, "Let me fce, this is the thirtieth?" ''The thirtieth !" exclaimed tho indignant mother; "indeed, but it's only the eleventh." The Washington correspondent of the New York Worhl says;. "There is excellent authority for the statemont that (Icncrals IJuell," McCook atift- Crittenden will soon be assigned to commands in the West."

The ministration. Government is one thing; detachment arrived at .T'.is-horo st-ttiou administration is a totally different thing, abou midnight, and found evcrvthinThe theory of a republican government is quiet m that vicinity, theexeitetnent v.iyl that it is controlled by the will of a majori- UiS 'C'I out, although it was reported that ty fall the people as signified through the sonio men were seen lurking around vith ballot-box. If, therefore, a majority of the hot guns, and it was Irnown that the Shcrpeoplc should signify their will through the j l mh his jvss had gone in pursuit of the ballot box that the present war should no ! murderer. The soldiers remained at the
longer be prosecuted, that majority, altho' they may have mistaken the true policy, cannot be justly said to l c traitors to the government. It is the essence of republican freedom that every citizen should have the untrammcled right to endeavor by his C ...... .v. .... vote to have those measures carried out which .ie considers most conducive to the welfare ol his country. lut does his free . dom stop here ? Is lie confined to dropping his silent ballot? Is his mouth ragged '! Certainly not. The riglit to express hi.s views by ballot carries with it the right to induce by fair argument and persuasion others to adopt his views. The prevention of interchange of views in anybody governed by the will of a majority would indeed be tyranny. "Next to the i'iterference with elections and the dragooning of voters by military power, nothing is a surer index of the downfall of a republic than the total prevention of an interchange of views, or the prevention of the expression of any views other than those in support of some proposed measure or candidate for office. It is essential to the political freedom of a republic that every citizen should hav the right to expre.-s his views o:i any political me.iMire or any act of the administration. and endeavor, by argument or persuasion., to bring others to adopt Iiis views. Any thing which Oistnrbs this right, whether it be by armed interference or printed nrticles, holding one tip to public obloquy for entertaining any particular opinion, tends to sap the very foundation of a republic. It is for these reasons that I view the indiscriminate application of the epithet, secessionist, to all who do not yield implicit faith to every act ol an administration to all who do not subscribe to the party tenets of some public journal as extremely pernicious aod deserving of yonr attention." cgio i:jiia1i?y in a ESZooKiing eL'oiitlitlott. The miscegenators may congratulate themselves that their promised land is already in si'ht. In the United Stater Senate on Thursday, on motion of Mr. Wilkinson, of Minnesota, the word "white" was stricken out of the bill establishing a temporary government for the new Territory of "Montana." This ericotuallv brings irs eitooiuaiiv brings the negro on an C(ua'ity with the white inhabitant, and enables both races to Cohabit alike, and alike under the organic law. In this view of this promising new Territory, would it not be more appropriate to name it "Misccgenia?" It is u more euphoneous title than the one proposed. Senator Sumner desired tinknow the meaning of the name "Montana." lie would labor under no iSiM,r.mctf in that respect if the name wc suggest should be selected. N. V. Herald. Tlic riiiuuriul Ml nut fori. Much uneasiness is felt in administration circles respecting the condition of the national finances. Another large issue of currency is now probable, since it is felt that even with the amount now out, it is iinpossil.de to prevent gold going to l!00 and upward, and one or two hundred millions more will not makemattcrsmuch worse. The government is now spending two millions per day. Its receipts from loans, taxes, and customs are less thau one million per day. The ten-forty loan does not sell because people feel that they have, already lent the government as much as they can without putting "too many eggs in a basket," and the national debt is now mount ing up so rapidly that the most sanguine beyrin to admit, that it i an never be paid, but that the best that can be hoped for is, that it will be only partially repudiated by being founded in a government bond bearing three per cent, interest.
