On I world k<ows that a tariff for revenaa, alone, was his - reed, which no one more strenuously mainta oed. Let us, then, all 4iscnaa this question < alruly, and lake t me for its settlement It is pre-eiirnentlv a question of dollars and ceots. which the lights of experi ence, as furnished by this count- v, will do much to settle upon a sure nod safe basis. There is one very atrong reason for the policy of direct taxation, and that it, the check of (he popular will, under the* system, must always be more afitaasl sad hHelW?ent than under the indirect plan. It is in vain that objectors urge that States now pay-og hundreds of thousands must, by direct taxation, pay millions and that our people will not pay millions when they once paid hundreds of thousands. Who pays for us as it is ? Where does the money come from which keeps the wheels of government moving, if it does not sp.ing from the pockets of the peo ple ; or, in other words, from production ? Cer tainly it sounds discreditably for the public in telligence to say tis true the people pay the money at las’, but they are in n sort ol mesmeric state from poiitic.il manipulation, and pay with out knowing ii. This will not do. The chief corner-stone in the Temple of Liberty is. the will of the governed is the essential principle of the government. No hocus pocus is neces sary if we give the people light; and any ques tion entering into the polity of our Confedera tion will reach a pea eful and wi e solution if we seek the truth ingenuously. If thirty mil lions are more thao a vigorous administration requires, let the superfloos millions then be honestly left in the pockets of the people to whom they belong. Cut off every needless ex pense, and it does seem to us that the Adminis tration of the Union of the Cotton Steles should cost hut very little more than (lie aggregate expense of the Administrations of the several States composing the Union. A few l gh -houses —a few shins of war—a few foreign represen tations—are all the realty necessary extra bur thens we w.ll be called on to prov.de for. The Post Olfice Doper.meat can and must pay its way and our people, if no other will, must show the world how this can be dooe. Our Foreign Miuislers must not be stipendiaries of the government and nothng else. Six thousand dollars paid the salary o! a Secretary of State, but suppeis and dinners and all soils of fantas tic display for the Ministers wife and daughters cost, we belive. $19 500. at the Court of Saint James. Why cannot six thousand doiiais pur chase the services of the same weight of talent abroad ? Rut for banquets and the awe of stars and garters they would do it. Local consuls, nil over the world, should supersede special agents sent abroad. Then let the bats occupy the custom houses—let pirates, by courtesy call ed the ‘ first-class powers,’* build Navies for their predatory excursions. We want a Mer chant Marine after a while, but no large Nnvy. Cotton will build and freight it after we have done with our Cousin Rail's ships. We wsnl no better army than our well drilled and uniformed Volunteer Companies will give, ready for actual service when called for, and made up of the pic ted men of the country. The few soldiers kept in gari ison will not cost much. That they will be lew let the state of affairs existing at this very moment tell the tale. As to the expense of the collection of Federal revenue, one single column more to every Re ceiver’s digest—ooe or two more words in the oath administered—will do ths work. Five hun dred dollars in the largest county fn Georgia, added to the Receiver's salary, will meet the expense of the additional service.

Such ia, and has been, tbe love and fondness for Abolition firms in New York and other Northern cities, by Southern merchants, that they preferred to patronize them to the exclu of sound conservative establishments. We know an Abolition firm in the city ol New York that sells to the State of Georgia more goods than any ten firms of that city combin- This firm have beau fattened and feted bv Southern merchants, until they have become bold and defiant in the expression of their in cendiary sentiments. Nevertheless, iMs firm pientsof the same amount of South ern patronage. Such is the wealth of this Abolition firm, that from one to ten thousand dollars is a small amount for them to contribute, at any time, to the cause of anti-Slavery. Is it not, then, in tolerable that Southern merchants go North at this time for the purchase of goods ? Is it not giving aid and comfort to the enemy? Is it not humiliating to our cause, and our sec tion? Every candid man must acknowledge such to be the case. And now that Georgia and six other States have absolved themselves from all connection with a people so intent upon the destruction of their interests, it is certainly in bad taste, not to aay bad faith, for Southern merchants to continue to patronise our most dire enemies.— There is neither excuse, cause, or propriety in any merchant, at this time, going to New York, or without tbe limits of the South, for the pur pose of purchasing goods. The fact is, the peo ple do not want the merchandise of tho Free States at this time, they are willing and anx ious to replace Yankee fabrics with homespuns, linseys, de. The Cotton States are prepared to I wait for the luxuries of merchandise until they 1 can be supplied by Direct Importation. We do , hope, for the future, that our Southern nier- | chants, if they expect to be patrouized, will j procure their goods from England, France, ! Belgium, and other trans-ALlantic markets, in- j stead of aiding to build up, at our doors, the isms of the North. Lincoln's Last Ovation. Wasuisgtox, Feb. 23.— Mr. Lincoln arrived here by the daylight train from the North this morning. He was incog. His arrival had been fixed for this evening. The short telegram we publish above gives this ovation, telling the tale in a few words.— 8hort as it is, in two or three lines, it compris es more deep significance than we have seen many long months in the same space in a newspaper. An American President slyly slipping into the lines of hismyrraidons surrounding the Cap ital of his country ! this in time of peace ; this , the year of our Lord nud Saviour, 1801; this . in the United States Government— the Gov ernment of a Free People ; this after proud ss- j Export Duty 011 Cotton. •ertions of magistracy and defiance—after the >y e find in the proceedings of the Congress br»»« word, of conquering heroes h»d com- | a| j| on ( g omey, last week, (be following resold minded .ubmieeion.

She has done it. and done it cheerfully, notwithstand ing the hardships of tbe service, and the num berless inconveniences and sacrifices al home, that accompanied its discharge." It seems from the annexed extracts that sotue dissatisfaction exists iu certaiu auctions of the State in consequence of the late Army appointments by Gov Brown. We have also heard complaints, not at any particular ap pointment made by His Excellency, but be cause of his injustice to a large portion of tbe citizens of the Slate in selecting all of his offi cers from one of the great parties which lately divided our people. Wesubmit this as impartial chroniclers of the times—yet justice compeis us to say that whlie nothing is easier than to sit in judgment upon the dispensing of Executive patronage, nothing, on the other hand, is more difficult, iu all the range of official perph-xi tics, than a satisfactory division of hnuors or emoluments falling to the Prerogative of the chief officer of a State. After the very best that can be done, many are to be disappointed —not a few treated unjustly, and all outraged who do uot get what they ask: We would like to know of Oov. Brown what have we. the people of South-Western Georgia done? If w« are not mistaken, it was in tins portion of the State that the greatest victories were achieved f»r Southern Rights, Southern interest and Southern honor. Then, w hy is it that now since tbe battle has been fought, and victory achieved, that we. who were the fore most in the contest, are denied not only to par ticipate iu the spoils, but are even denied a share of the honors? liaaour Governor forgotten that to the Wire- Grass he is indebted for the |»osition he now enjoys—has he forgotten that it Div Voluut. er ! the prominent principle.

I do not think (bat the resolution should elicit discussion at the present time, but after the Committee on Finance have made their report, it may be come a grave matter for the omeideratton of this body. The resolution was adopted. Wcf” Mr. J. D. Garrison, of Calhoun coun ty, Alabama, has reoeailj discovered on hie plantation, a rich mine of Tripoli Tripoli ia a light mineral substance of great value in cioaatof and polishing welshes of all kinds. warded by promotion over super also by such badges of honor as lished by the War Department. On presenting the above Bill, Mr. Wright said, I do not propose, Mr. President, to ad dress the Congress nt length, on this Bill, at this time. I have presented it for the pur[H>se of culling tbe attention of Congress to it, and off* ring some reflections, for the Bill proposes t«* make a very important change in the regu lar Army of the Confederate States, whose proposed organiz.itfon, at prtsent, is the same as that of the Army of the United States. The immediate occasion of this Bill, sir, was an applica'ion, through me, to the Govern ment of the Confederate States, by Captain George W. Lee, a citizen of Atlanta, Georgia, to be received into the service of the new Re public. Capt. Lee has organized, at bis owu expense, a Company of one hundred men, in the city of Atlanta, composed mostly, if not entirely, of the mechanics of that city—work ing men. and men inured to toil. Having drilled these men. he presents them, together with their officers, not as volunteers tor a ser vice of a year or two. but as those who wish to become a p rt of the regular Army of tbe Confederate States. When Capt. Lee first mentioned the subject to me, I stated to him, as my opinion, that there would he no difficul ty in being received in the way or manner he desired, for I thought our Republic would ueed men, and such men as those that couipoaed his Company. On application, sir, to the Presi dent and come of the members of the Military Committee, and after an examination of the army organizitiou, I ascertained that neither himself, nor his men, could be received as a Company, into the service of the Confederate States, according to the rules which obtain in the Army of the United States ; but they could only be received as recruits. Now, sir. there is a vast difference between a man wh » g-*es into the Army of the Confed erate Stales, us a recruit, and one who gees in as u member of an organiitd Company. 1 will take this occasion lo say, that thoro is a vust difference between the character of the men in volunteer companies, and in that of soldiers who may compose our regular Army; aud my opinion is, that the advan tages will be all in favor of those of the Volun j teer Division. The recruit places bims«df at the disposal o! the Government, and may be I com pelle«l to mix with men he never'saw be ! fore—men for whom he has no affinity, social- I ly, intellectually, or morally. He may be j thrown into association with meu taken fro® the filthy purlieus of your citiee, from which places a large number of recruits are generally obtaiued lo make up a regular army. A man of proper mental and moral training can never submit to occupy that position ; no matter how ardent his patriotism, and burning his desire to defend the independence and honor of his country, ho would not be willing to make such a persoual sacrifice. He is to be commanded by men, as his superiors, whom he never saw; and he cannot tell whether he shall be led to battle by a wise man or a f*ol. The Bill which I offer proposes to remedy this defect in our regular Array. It is n Bill to oreatc a Volunteer Division, to be composed of men who present themselves to the Repub lic for service. You will observe that the su perior officers are to be appointed iu like man ner as those in the regular Army, aud that all those officers, from Captain to M^jor General, may be taken from any rank in life, from any of the Confederate States. But, sir, from that time, the officers of the volunteer corps are made from the soldiers composing the Volunteer Division, aud that alone. There is, sir, another important distinction with respect to the members incorporated into this Division, and the soldiers in the regular Army cf the Confederate States. The control ling consideration in this Division shall be courage and skill; there shall be no obstacle to the promotion of men who have won laurels in the field of battle by their valor; and no one can seek and obtain promotion through the |wwerful influence of friends, which operates like an incubus upon rising merit. The reftog nition of this influence has been a great fault ia tho regular service. Oue or two obaervptioq*more, and I shall have said all I intend to say on the present oc casion. Without going ftirther back In h(sto r J» Ik® in tka Crimea proves tke correct-, nets of this plan.

The organisation of tbe De- j partment of which he is at the bead, will re- j quire all cf his time, and it will be impossible [ for him to attend to the duti«s of a Committee. I hope, therefore. Mint he be excused, and the » President appoint some one to fill bis vacancy. ' This motion was agreed to. Ou motion of Mr. 8mith. Congress then went j into secret session.
