x; but when Mr. Chase has obtained his £3,000,000 we shall have a faith in his security which we have not now. He hopes also to get another four millions from other direct taxes. There six millions, when he gets them, will not go far, as he must admit; but then he has a complete set of excise machinery ready to get into gear. He is about to tax stills and spirits, and sugar, and tea, and coffee, and tobacco. He has an impost prepared for bank notes, legacies, and carriages; and — oh, Mr. John Bright, how can your credit with the North have fallen so low!--he offers as part security for this mountain of debt a duty upon paper! If all this only "go forward," as mercantile people say, we shall congratulate the Federal States upon being as well taxed a community as any respectable, old fashioned kingdom of the Old World. Whether such sound tax payers will bear such a weight all at must be a ... hundreds man might have objections to take the appointment of Income Tax. Commi
r. Seward and the opinion of the inhabitants of New York were still keeping up their spirits by big words still boasting that England had too many interests at stake to risk a quarrel with the United States, and comforting themselves with the braggart notion that "Canada is within two days railway journey of half a million of armed men, and has a frontier that can offer no resistance to an invading force." The news had only just reached them that England had heard of the exploit of Commodore Wilkes. It will be remembered that at the first moment it was received with some astonishment, but with great calmness. The primary impulse here was, not to bluster, but to inquire. The people of New York, judging too much by their own habits, and delighted to find us so calm, telegraphed at once that "the effect of the news in England is not so unfavorable as was expected." In this fool's paradise they had yet to be disturbed. They had yet to learn that the more calmly and deliberately a

The American news we publish to-day is chiefly remarkable for the wonderful financial statement of Mr. Chace, the Secretary of the Treasury. In other respects it is still but an uncertain sound. The populace of New York was yet hugging the fond delusion that the seizure of the Trent would be passed over without resentment. The organs which assume to represent the policy of Mr. Seward and the opinion of the inhabitants of New York were still keeping up their spirits by big words still boasting that England had too many interests at stake to risk a quarrel with the United States, and comforting themselves with the braggart notion that "Canada is within two days railway journey of half a million of armed men, and has a frontier that can offer no resistance to an invading force."

We are not used to the thunders of Niagara, and the tremendous distances of the Mississippi, and the high shooting peaks of the Andes; but we are not altogether incapable of a new sensation.

Altogether, the fleet of gun-boats at Chatham and on the Medway number twenty-four.--In addition to the above there is a squadron of mortar boats, all of which can be ready immediately. The Rattlesnake, twenty-one guns, screw frigate, 400 horse power, is to be brought for ward with the utmost dispatch. The line of battle screw steamer Mocance, eighty-one guns, is to be brought forward to be placed in commission. The Flying Fish sailed on Friday, December 20, for Lisbon, with sealed orders. The guard ships around the coasts of the three kingdoms were telegraphed for all men belonging to them to prepare for immediate service. The screw steam corvette Satellite, twenty-one guns, accompanied by the gun-boats Sheidrake and Spicer, left Plymouth on Sunday last for the Southwest coast of America. The screw steam frigate Orlando, fifty-one guns, will take out winter clothing for the squadron at Halifax.

Mr. Chase, as a prudent, or rather a zealous, Secretary of the Treaty well for a three years war. Yet, if we were to examine Mr. Chase's figures very closely, we should find the estimate of exts is to double his advances. For the first time, Secretary Chase gives us a glimpse as to what this security is. Of coutional security means the national patience of taxation. Mr. Chase is about to make the great experiment whether any such seis but a fifth of what we raise by the same tax; but when Mr. Chase has obtained his £3,000,000 we shall have a faith in his luntarily paid into the exchequer. If this should be so, Mr Chase will get some fourteen millions towards his expenditure o
of opinion among the Federal populace when Lord Lyons made his communication, that magnificent and stupendous deficit of forty-three millions sterling remaining at the end of a year, during which the borrowing powers of the Federal States were taxed to the utmost ought to aid these people to see their position. Mr. Chase, as a prudent, or rather a zealous, Secretary of the Treasury, does not go out of his way to mention disagreeable facts. He does not tell us how much of the expenditure of 1861 was raised by loans and how much by taxes; nor does he mention the present amount of the newly-born national debt of his nation. Without this intelligence, however, he states quite enough to enable any man of business to judge how long this war of subjugation can last, and what the probabilities are of sustaining another war in addition to it. He says that from July, 1861, to July 1862, the war expenses will be in round numbers, £109,000,000 sterling, of which he has succeeded in borrowing

n Sunday last for the Southwest coast of America. The screw steam frigate Orlando, fifty-one guns, will take out winter clothing for the squadron at Halifax. Several gun-boats at Davenport are ordered to be prepared for the pennant. No. 6, screw steam transport Mauritius, is taking in 300 tons of war stores for Canada, a battery of twelve-pounder Armstrong guns, and about 800 troops. The Defence, lion steamer, 22 guns, 600 horse power, is ordered to be ready to sail on January 2d, for Canada. She will take out 190 common and 190 segment 100-pounder shells, 50 boxes of common and 50 boxes of the segment 20-pounder shells, 125 boxes of the 14-pounder segment shells, 360 of the naval 88-pounder shells, and 109 boxes of the 24 pounder howitzer shells. Her solid shot will consist of 600 68-pounders, 160 100-pounder conical Armstrongs, 50 20-pounder Armstrongs, and 50 12-pounder Armstrongs. Two additional, 100-pounder Armstrongs will be added.

borrowing about £40,000,000, and hopes to get the rest by paper money, more loans, and taxation to the amount of about £2,500,000. If he can get the loans, and if people will take his paper money, and if they will also pay taxes, he will then be able to make both ends meet up to July, 1862; but, if the South should not be subjugated by that early date, he tells his countrymen plainly that he shall want seventy-six millions sterling for the service of the next year, and that at the end of June, 1863, the national debt of the Federal States will be nine hundred millions of dollars. This is pretty well for a three years war. Yet, if we were to examine Mr. Chase's figures very closely, we should find the estimate of expenditure, and still more the estimate of the amount of debt, very much understated. However, let that pass. Two hundred millions in three years form not a bad nucleus to a respectable national debt.--It will be observed that there is no question here as to where the
