Wo have been asked whether it was true, as rumored, that the Secretary of the Treasury, in his lain report, recom mends tho imposition of a tax of ten cents per pound on cotton. We have carefully examined the report, and find that it con tains no such recommendation. On the contrary, it aL unds with liberal sugges tions in reference to the people of the Mouth : instance the following recommen dations of tbo Sec-etary : In view, thorelore, of tho recent and present condili n of tne Southern States, the Secretary r/’cotr.mpnds: First. That the. collection of internal revenue taxes which accrued before the establishment of rovenuo offices in the States recently in rebellion bo indefinitely postponed. Second. That all sales of property in those States, under the direct tax law, be suspended until the States shall havo an opportunity «d' HSEunjing (as was done by the loyal State.-) tho payment of the tnx assessed upon them. Third. That all transactions in such Slates, which may be invalid by tho non use of stamps, be legalized as lar as it is in the power of Congress to legalize them. What action, if any, should bo taken for tho relief of person* in those Stales ■whose property has been sold under tho direct tax law, and is now bold by tho Government, it will be lor Congress to determine. Th 1 Secretary is decidedly of tho opinion that liberal legislation in re gard to the taxos which acertfed prior to the supreesion of the rebellion will tend to promote harmony between tho Govern ment and tho people of those Stales, will ultimately increaso the public revenues, humane policy of the Presby , jority of that church hatLno sympathy with tho Southern people,* 1 nutstmunatizud us as the greatest of sinnors. ^ He also thought that tho claims of our colored population upon tbo Church should not be overlooked, but should re ceive the (mimeet attention of the Church. He hoped the ©vangeliz ition of cur own people should bo first accomplished, tho' tbo demand* of foreign missions should not bo ignored. Tho religious wsMfe of tbo Indiana on our border* sbouNHlso command attention. These Indians had generally cast in their lot with tbo South, and like ourselvo* had euffored the same disappointment. In tho scarcity ol young men to take the places of ihcsein the ministry who had gone and wore going, wo could look foruo help from the North; not one hundred minister* reared ill that atmosphere of fa naticism could bo found, who would bo acceptable to our people. The Reverend sneaker closed with ex- boitation to tho ministry to be zealous in their labors for tho advancement of Chr stV Kingdowr, and not let secular care* divide the attention which should be solely,devoted to the salvation of rnon. Tbo exercises were concluded with prayer and the singing oftho hyin: “Zion’s King shall reign victorious." Aftortho benediction, the Assembly was organized by the Moderator. Uev. JohnS. WiLon 1 D.
