The tt evulsion in the North—The Peeling
against the administration and the
War.
ihere are thoue.i.ds in the North whose
voice*, ere long,.will be heard ringing like a
mighty taiaraoi in the ears of the wicked ad
ministration at Washington. The New York
World, speaking of the note of ibe adminis
tration, introduces a letter from one of the
most prominent citizens of the North, in which
the writer sayt
The people are agaiust lb's wicked admin
istration, and heartily siek of its shoddy war
It a vole could be takeh on the war-question
to-morrow, it would be to stop it forthwith.—
You know my views, dear eir; they aro as
uualierable as the principles upon which the
Government was founied. I see this Govern
ment going to ruin in the hands of bad men.
Whilst tho war lasts they wi 1 find means to
a.euutplisb the worst ot purposes. The war
is the prolific source of all the evils which
afflict this poor diitraoted country. It mnst

it is not Southern rebellion, [if that is the I Hayncy, mrs E J
word,] that is going to kill us, but the North-1 Harris, J R
era despotism torced upon ns by the usurpers I Holt, D H
at Washington. With their train bands, but I Hiniim, mrs E
little better now than Prmtorean guards, they
.seek to rob us of our birthright. The pre
tence is that the government is in danger, and
to save that, the free-spoken and the restless
may be shackled. Audacious men! The Gov
ernment is in no danger except .rom those
who assume to be giving it their support.—
What they are after is another form of Gov-1 , t ' w ,,
eminent; and the reoent debates in Congress I „ n T ’ rr__i
go far toward eustaining this view of the case. ■ *’

cution policy, in reality help Lincoln and-bis j Kelly, C W

The World adds:
Snob are tho views now held by prominent
men in the North, and their numbers » con
stantly increasing. We cannot permit our
selves to doubt that ere long these opinions
will be the opinions of the whole North.

Commission Merchants Taxed.
We this morning lay before onr readers an
Ordinance passed by the City Council at its
last meeting, taxing commission merchants a
certain per oent. upon isll their sales. We
shall not undertake to say whether the Ordi
nance i a wise or an unwise one. Time will
demonstrate this. If it works well, all will
be satisfied; and we know the Counoil will
repeal it if it should not, and it become appa
rent.
Bat wo have this suggestion to make: that
the Conneil devise some effioient method to
collect an adequate tax of non-resident itine
rant or street traders—-persons who have no
place of business, but who have goods stored
here; etay around onr principal business
bouses, Lave all the advantages of a knowl
edge of onr market, but who pay no license,
no lax, and no house rent, and therefore can
undersell our regular merchants; and while
thus having more than all the advantages of
our regular merchants, contribute nothing—
let alone their just proportion—to the main-
tainanos of our oity expeneet. Wo think ii
likely that some persons who are citizens o:
Atlanta, as well as some who are not, are en
gaged in this kind of trade. Lit them be
taxed exactly the same as the commission mer
chant, and let tome method be devised to
make the eolleetion of this tax certain—so that
no one, howover arifu’, can escape. If this
bo done, we think there will be no complaint.
An Ordinance for regulating the Tax on all
Goods and Merchandise sold by Commission
Merchants, and for other purposes therein
mentioned.
Sec. 1. Be it orduined by the Mayor and
Council of the City of Atlanta, and it is here
by ordained by authority of the same, that
each and every Commission Merchant in said
city, and every pers n who may sell any
goods, merchandise or other property, on com
mission, shall, on the first Monday in each
and overy month, report th.- said sales of such
goods so sold, on commission, to tho Clerk of
Council of the said city, and pay on tho
amount of said «a!cs the sum < f one-half of
one per cent., the said return of the amount
to be render d Under oath taken and sub-
scribod boio.e some person authorized by law
to administer an oath.
Sko. 2. Be it further ordained by the au
thority aforesaid, that any person violating
the provisions of the foregoing seotion, shall,
upon conviction before the Mayor or three
members of Council, be fined, not exoeeding
fifty dollars and cos. for every day they fail,
neglect or refuse to so return the amount of
their sales and pay the tax as provided in said
1st Seotion until such return is made, each
day, or part of day, being a separate ffenoe.
Sec. 3. Be it further ordained, that nothing
in this Ordinanoo shall’interfere with vendue
masters now licensed by authority of said city,
or with any property sold under legal process,
out only to suoh property, goods or merchan
dize of non-residents as is sold on commission,
or be hereafter sold on commission by per
sons who are not liable for tax on the same to
said eity under existing Ordinances.
FROM OUR SECOND EDITION OF YESTERDAY
Richmond, March 10.—In the Senate to
day, a bill passed requiring pre-payment of
postage on letters sent to soldiers. The Im
pressment bill was considered in secret ses
sion, and Wigfall’s substitute adopted for the
House bill—yeas 12, nays 2. After the doors
were opened, the Senate bill to grant to the
principal officers of each of the Executive De
partments a seat upon the floor was discussed
till the adjournment. The House passed the
Senate joint resolution relative.io procuring
provisions, with an amendment requesting
the President to give producers assurance that
when it became necessary to impress provi
sions or forage, just compensation should e
made, according to fair market valuation.
Mr. Barksdale introduced a joint resolution
declaring the firm conviction of the people
of the Confederate States in the justice of their
cause and their confidence in final triumph,
and that they will continue to make whatever
sacrifice that may he required; that we would
accord a respectful consideration to any pro
position looking to an accommodation of the
difficulties with the North, but preserving our
separate and distinctive'national cha.actor;
and whenever any State bordering on the
Mississippi shall desist from the present un
provoked war, we will secure to them the free
navigation of the Mississippi river—referred
to the Committee on Foreign Affairs. Mr.
Smith introduced a similar resolution—also
referred; then went into secret session on the
Tax bill.

timed honest man. He was 81 years of age

Rev. Jahxs Mangum was a native of South
Carolina, and died on the first day of this
month. In 1825 he emigrated from his native

Tlie Capture of llic U. S. Gunboat Indl-
nnola.
Washington, March 2,1863.—The gunboat
Indiatiola has been taken by the rebels below
Vioksbnrg. Two or three rebel steamers, pre
pared in Galveston in style, and filled with
armed meu, fastened upon the Indianola and
captured her. She is iron-clad. In conjnnc
tion with the Qaten of the West, and tho ves
sels originally possessed by. the rebels, they
now have quite a fleet below Vicksburg, and
it will he necessary for admiral Porter to send
down severa. gunboakt at once and clear out
the rebel mosquito fleet Their operations
show tho energy of despair, and our own
should be prompt and powerful to crush oat
their last hupe.
" SKETCH OP TUB INDIANOLA.
The Indianola is one of the new iron-clad
gunboats recently bnilt in Cincinnati, Ohio.
She is four hundred and forty-two tons bur
then, aud was built to carry two guns. Sue
was constructed according to plans issued
from the Navy Department, and is one hun
dred and seventy-five feet in length, fifty-one
and a half feet broad, six feet in depth of
hold, and drawn with all on board bat six feet
three inches of water. The thickness of her
bottom planking is five inches, of her lining
three inches, of her sides four inches, and of
her deck four and a half inches.' Over all is
a strong layer of iron plating. Her flooring
Umbers are ten inches square. She is flat-bot
tomed and without a keel for navigating shal
low-waters. Her sides spre id ont from the
bottom to the deck at an angle of forty-five
degrees, and fall in above d.cck at a similar
angle for the purpose of glancing off shots
aimed at her. The gunners are protected by
a kind of casemate formed bjr tho construc
tion of the vessel, which gives it the appear
ance of a mud turtle. The cost of building
this vessel was about one hundred thousand
dollars. Lieutenant Commander George
Brown was the last officer reported having
charge of her.
