!f«. 4—Te tbe People of laliaaa. I bave shears tar facta and figures which cpfflfi be controverted or denied t!i eoor mous tax we have paid to tbe last 6 years, smounting to more tbsn thirty-six millions of dollars, on the eoofcuropttoo of Sipr and MoUsses, articles which have beeome rucstxories, cislJ? to ifee laboring cjss/ ses.- 4 baxs sbown you also, ibal the tax is not wanted for the support of Government, end that it has contributed to csuae surplus in the Tressury of more tban 925,000,000, which cannot be used, for the reason that our indebtedness cannot be psid rxcept at sialrd periods. Those capitalists wbo lent a* money in 1846 and '47, when we were engaged in war with Mexico, received our bonds payable in years to come, with interest. Those bond* ere from 12 to 20 per cent, above par, and the holders, of course, wil! not take tbe money for tbem, as they are a most excellent investment. We have been buying aome of them at an advance of twenty-one per cent., but holders generally refuse to seU. Therefore I ssy, that tbe twenty-five millions, after having been unnecessarily taken from the pocket* of tbe people, are wholly useless, and might as «e I be in the Mississippi And when we consider, that a large part of this twenty-five millions, is made ap by a tax of 30 per cent, on augar and molasses, articles of prime necessity, will not the laboring classes wbo pay the most of it. insiat on the removal of the tax? It does seem to me, that the proposition has only to be made, to meet with the hearty concurrence of every one of the laboring classes, for it is they who pay this outrageous tax, and for no other purpose but to support a few nabobs in Louisiana, and enable them'io enjoy all the luxuries of life, and spend their time in one continued round of amusement and pleasure. We, the working men, of the country, have to do thia because Congress haa imposed this tax of 30 per cent, ad valorum on all augara and molasses imported into this country, and which we consume every day. Must we submit to this, or rather must we not me up in our strength, and insist on a removal of It

But this is not all. Besides this tax of 30 per cent, levied' by Government, on sugar and molasses, there are other charges we have to pay before toe can consume them. First, there if the profit which the wholesale dealer in thete articles receives from the retailer, and then the profits of (he retailer all these are to be added to the price, and which we. the consumer* must pay. It is true the dealers in these articles, should have fair profit* on their capital invested in this business, and we are willing to pay them but to superadd to these, a lax of 30 per cent, and that too for no necesaary or useful purpose, fs outrageously unjust and oppressive, for no matter how small the tax may be. if ft If imposed unntcessarily, it is orpREssivB^.'flie millions of consumers of these article* in the United States, pay this lax, to support a purely local interest and to put money into the pookets of a class, and that a small one, who, however meritorious, havt* no right to insist upon it* continuance. In a government like ours, there should be no class legislation, and no tax Imposed to bolster tip any particular interest^ Taxes ahould be'laid for revenue only. That is the theory of the demooratio party, and hope it will be their practice also, and in this connexion, it is very gratifying to read the circular of the present able Secretary of the Treasury of the 20th or September last, looking to a revision and reduction of the tarifT of du lies at the next session of Congress, 'Hers i, his circular:'*

CAUTION.

MAIL Rousar.—This morning, upon opening a freight car loaded wish wheat at the warehouae of Messrs. Otis, Knight, di Co.. a mail bag was found, broken open, and numerous letters scattered about. The deputy Postmaster was immedia'elv sent for, who took charge oT the concern. Upon examination, the mail proved to have been forwarded from New York Oct. 18th to Indianapolis as a distributing office. The robbery was evidently committed at Yeraaiiles, whence the wheat car atarted on its journey to this city. He got possession of the bag in aome manner, took it into the oar and rifled it at his leisure/ It has remained lyingthere quietly evefifhee.

The bill accompanying the bag calls for 97 letters, none of which are missing. All but 12 letters are broken open, and it*is a little singular that every letter was opened with care, and theconlents returned in each instance to the right envelope. Among them are found several checks, promissory notes, a land warrant for 16 aores, a pension warrant for 40 acres, a receipt upon a life insuranoe policy from the New YorH Life Insurance Company, and two policies from the Providence Insurance Company, (Nos. 1924 and 1225) one for 95 00 and the other for 223. None of the letters speak of money, and it is highly probable that the thief got nothing for his pains.— Cleveland Plaindealer, Nov. 3.
