Ii the rule be applied to an export duty on cotton daring the whole period that the demand exceeds the supply the increase of price that follows must be paid by the con- aumer of ihe raw material. Whatever amount of duty may be imposed will be drawn back in the increased price of the article, and the duty will fall exclusively on the consumer in foreign countries. If, therefore, the government oi the Confederate States impose an export du'y on cotton of two dollars and fifty cents per bale, the crop being 4,000,000 bales, amounting to fifty millions of dollars, should they borrow this We have stated that the true mode of pay-1 sum In Europe, the producers of the staple will ing the interest and discharging the principal | pay no part of the duty, so long as the demand of the war debt of the’Coafederacy is by bor-1 exceeds the- supply. rowing for these purpose abroad at a lower As we have asstgned two years for the prob- rate of interest than money enn be obtained able duration of the period, after the close of for in the Confederate States, and that this is which the demand and supply will become preferable to taxing the people for the rev- equal, the scheme of taxation should be made enue required by the government to pay the conformable to this theory of export duties, interest and prlneipal of the war debt, at a If combined with the plan of an income tax period whon a destructive war has greatly gradually.increasing from 6 per cent at the impaired the sources of their income. We commencement, to 7* per cent, after the first have affirmed it as highly probable that mon- year and to 10 per cent, after the second year, eyed capital can be obtained in Europe at five when this period is reached, should the de percent. per annum on the adoption of prop- mand and supply become equalised, the effect er financial arrangements. The sum required would be that the grower ol the raw material to pay the interest of our war debt is sixty I would be relieved of any part of the daty.— millions of dollars. In conformity with the If the amount of the export dnty is fifty views expressed by us the burthens of taxa- millions when the equilibrium between the tion should be imposed in the most gradual demand and supply is recovered, the burthen manner, or progressively, as the resources of of the duty being equally divided between our people have experienced renovation. As- the producers and consumers, the proportion gaming that duties on importation and ton-1 of duty .to be paid by the former would be hage will be adequate to the other expenses of twenty-five millions of dollars, unless relieved the government, and that we shall be com- by some other form of taxation. In propo- pelledto resort, to a certain extent, to direct sing to remove this burthen, twenty-five mil- taxation, to pay the interest of our debt, and I lions, to the income tax, regard is had to its to redeem the principal, we have suggested due distribution. It were more just that an income tax as the most simplo, just and un- twenty-five millions of taxation should be expensive. Adopting Mr. Memminger’s sug- thrown on income generally than that it gestion of an impost on gross income, his val- should be oonoentrated upon (he raisers of a nation of property in the Confederate States particular class of exportable products—that at four thousand millions, the gross income at it should be paid by an impost on gross in- four hundred millions, being ten per cent, on come, amounting to eight hundred millions oi the valuation, .and the tax ten per cent, on dollars, than on two hundred millions, asaum- that income, the pr-duoe of such a tax would ing this to be the aggregate gross income of be forty millions. We propose that one-half I the producers of cotton when the demand of this amount, or twenty millions, should be and supply becomes equalized. We have also raised by an income tax, whioh would require assumed two years as the probable period five per cent, on a gross inoome of four hun-1 when the supply and demand are in equilib- dred millions. Five per cent, is as high a I rium, but the principle for which we contend, rate of taxation on gross income as the peo-1 of a gradual increase of the income tax, as plo can bear under existing oironmstances.— We suggest that the remainder, forty millions, be borrowed abroad, to pay the interest, and ten millions In addition, to discharge the principal of the debt by tbe operation of a sinking fund of ten millions, unless capital can be obtained within tbe Confederate States at as low or a lower rate of interest than it oan be borrowed in Europe. The node in which this is to be effeoted is by an export duly on cotton of two and a half dollars per bale of 600 pounds. On the esti mate of 4,000,flOO bales suoh a tax would yield fifty millions of dollars—forty millions the price of ootton declines, to that point at which the burthen of the duly will be equally divided on producers and consumers, will hold good whether the period be two, three, four or fire years. The longer the duration of that period, the higher in price will ootton range, the longer will the produoers be able to compel the consumers to pay the duty, and the lower will be the rate of the inoome tax. • C From our old Correspondent, ‘ D. L. D.’> Richmond, February 5, 1663. For a week or more the Senate have had un- for Interest and ten millions for a sinking I £ er consideration a bill to organize a Confederate - , . . . . . . A „ * I Supreme Court. The debate has taken a wide fund. It ib our principal staple that must be I range, and we have had learned . speeches in our instrument of deliverance from our pe- support of every shade of constitutional con- cuniary difficulties—not by the purchase of at uciiou. Some of the participants in. he dis, , * .... . . 1 cusaion aided in lotming the Constitution.— the orpp or any considerable part of it, but Those men differ as widely in opinion as to by a duty which shall oompel the oonsumers I what the instrument means, as any body else, in Europe and the North to pay the duty—as I - h * a ‘*- a 8B< * . comi T lentar y upon their work.— we shall presently show. Should the necessi ties of the government require immediate pe cuniary relief, it might offer a pledge to European capitalists to impose such a rate of duty as wonld produce fifty millions per an num tor two years, to be paid when the Southern ports are opened, and as soon as the duty can be eolleoted. It is the opin ion of praotical men that with such a pledge combined with even a moderate inoome .tax, From the pending debate in the Senate, it would seem that those who made our new Constitution do not understand it. This is certainly a had beginning for our Southern Republic. There is no good reason why there should be a single ambiguous expression in the Constitu tion. The fact that there is v single feature in it which admitaol two opinions shows the there was a deficiency of wisdom and statesmanship in the convention which formed it. The truth is that out Constitution is too nearly a literal transcript of the Constitution of the United States. The greatest statesmen the country produced differed diametrically as to the mean have a majority in each of the Legislatures of these States. But the Governors aro Abolition ists, and this is a serious draw back. In both of those States the Democrats aro squaro out against sustaining Lincoln’s proclamation. Lin coln, ol course, can’t recede from his position on that subject, and hence the influence of those States so lar .as the Legislatures are con cerned, are directly at issuewith the President. Tho Democratic Legislature and abolition Governor of Indiana are already at loggerheads. There is intense excitement in consequence.— The Issues of the excitement sro rapidly spread ing from the seat of government to all parts of tho State. -An undoubted majority of thepeoplo are with tho Legislature. Things may progress so far as that the Legislature will pass an act of secession. It so, Illinois would immediately follow. Such action would l>e resisted by the Governors, and thus would commence a civil, war. At the election tor members of Congress in Ohio, in October last, the Democrats carried the State by a large majority. The Legislature, however, which holds over from a former elec tion, is abolition. The same is trite of the Gov ernors. But the Democratic pcoplo of the S ate sympathise with their brethren immediately west of there. It, therefore, the fire of revolu tion breaks out in cither of the other States, the conflagration will extend to Ohio. The spirit of resistance to Lincoln is rife in New York. Should a revolution break out anywhere, it would certainly be caught up there. Indeed the outbreak may commence in that State. Gov. Seymour would b.* with any movement that might be directed against Lincoln. The Legislature of New York is so peculiarly constituted that it will not initiate any radical or violent movement. But the people there,^ particularly in the S .uthern part of the* State—which i mb races its con trolling intelligence and wealth—aro almost unimously in iavor of overthrowing Lincoln. So, taking all the signs of the times into consideration, it is by no means improbable that ero long we will see a terrible civil war in the North. The abolition leaders plainly see such a war looming up, aud are now trembling in the breeze. They will make a desperate straggle to retain this power; but let the storm once commence, and it will soon assume tbe power of a mighty tornado, that will sweep every thing before it. It is no MWrt that those .who are working for a separation of the West from tile East, look to a formal affiiliatiot with the Confed erate Stales. If the movement were to suo- oeed, the party achieving the success would willingly adopt our constitution. But this would not seouro their admission. Under our constitution, it takes two-thirds voting by States, to admit a State. ■ It is not likely therefore, that any non-slavcholding Slate will, under any circumstances, be admitted into our Confederacy, during the present gen eration, at least. Besides this, whenever tbe work of disen- tigration commences, Now York, Pennsylva nia and New Jersey, will have to establish new relations, hence, these StateB will be un willing to separate from their Western sisters. The whole of them would be anxious for an arrangement by which they a®d the South Could get together under the same govern ment. But that cannot be. The probability is, therefore, that a new government will be formed of the StateB of New York, New Jer sey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, .Illinois and Iowa. Now England w\ll be “left out in the oold.” Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnes ota will be fragmentary Slates, just “hanging round loose." They will want to sustain Linooln, but will be geographically out off from New England. What will become of them no body knows, and no body cares. Before all this comes to pass, there may be a season of anarchy at the North. Buttlmta middlo government will be formed at no dis tant day is aBo-rlaiu as any future event can be within human prevision. What kind of a government it will be,-no mortal can tel).'— Tho probability is that it will bo strong, and sin!|>le in its operation. If there was any one non 'tiere, who stood out in towering promi- i > £«#, who could command the sympathies of the masses, he would have no difficulty in seizing power, and wielding, and with all the absolutism that marks tho reign of Louis Na- paleon. There is but one danger to the South in oonneotion with any movement for the for mation of a middlo government; and that is that Western Virginia, Kentucky, and Mis souri, may want to go with it. This would make our boundary ugly and inconvenient.— As between tho North and the South, they wouid unquestionably oome with ns. But in deciding between the South and a middle ernmont, it might be different. They w be strongly appealed to, by tbe new govern ment, and one argument, (unfortunately too potent) wonld be that it would be free from toth the United States debt, and Confederate debt. D. L. D. A New Federal Policy lu Louisiana* By an order of General Binke it will be seen that the people of those portions of Lotatateua | favored by Lincoln, are not to be benentted by tho exemption. In these districts an entirely new policy is to bo adopted. We find the fal lowing in the True Della of tbe 30th nit.: PKOUUL1ATING tub EMANCIPATION PROCLA MATION.

The mischief grow ing out of party excitement finally culminated in a dissolution oi the gover imet. Let us hope that no such calamity is in store for us. We can only be saved from it by an en lightened public sentiment which will frown down all metaphysical, hair-splitting expounds ers of the Constitution.

In imposing an export duty there are two evils against which we have to guard : 1, That we do not impose so high a duty as to cer in the Confederacy any part of the duty. The rate we propose and the limited time for which the duty is to continue will avert both these evils. Two and a half dollars per bale will not operate as a bounty to tho foreign cultivator, The time we suggest for the dnty to oontinne is (too years, as the period in i Congress, at its present session, will nnques lionaDly make a serious effort to sustain our public credit. It is likely that the general piait which will be adopted is about this: The Trea- ury notes now in circulation to be funded into bonds; a new class ol notes to be issued for circulation, and made a legal tender. In addi tion to this, a direct tax will be laid which will yield from one hundred to one hundred and twenty millions. This will be & heavy tax, but There is already a radical division between the Democrats and abolitionists. It is irreconcilable. It is an "irrepressible conflict.” It is difficult to teli what shape their quarrel will assume.— Bat one thing we may calculate upon with cer tainty ; and that is, that it will paralyze Lin coln. It trok a united North to carry on the war. With that section divided, it would seem that the war must stop.
