THE REBELLICJi NOT ENDED. THE CONFISCATION LAW. The confiscation case of D- ctor Tivior, of Memphis, bus ■ittracte i much notice through " 00l the country. On the C2d ultimo the ar gumenl of Taylor s counsel, who assumed that “inforiaaiioushould be quashed, on the plea that the President s proclamation declaring Tennessee no longer in insarrec lion, nullihed the 6peciai acts of Congress, parsed for ihe purpose of aiding the suppri s siou of the rebellion, was revi. Wid by the United States District G>urt in session at M raphis, Tenn. We learn lr m the Na>ii- Ville Dispatch that judge Trigg ruled that the rebellion was not over, as no pr Ciaina tion .had yet appeared from the executive ol the nation anuom Cleg so desirab e a state oi aS irs, that, as in the case reviewed by Gen. Terry, and others, the preset.C) of the tnili tary power was pr ot that insurn ction, it Dot aC ual, was implied, and, whether or not, that the law was plain and specific in its ap plication to alt cases of treason, and that its spirit and in ent were applicable lo aeon voted traitor alter as well as during hostili ties. , Another cues lion of law was also raised, va: w uctoer or not the Courts legally cott fi,c ited the pioper'y of those engaged in the rebellion, before they were convicted of treason; in answer to which the Court de cided that the laws under which these c<>u fl citinns were made expressly provided that propelty of the men who were engaged in the rebellion against the Government should be c >uCheated, and that the property of a citiz-u, upon sufficient proof that he was actually engaged in the rebellion, couid be libelled and Conti cued, whether the owner is absent or present during the investigation of an inh relation. We believe it has been authoritatively an noui oed that President Johnson bud ex pressed the opinion that no confiscation ol properly conld be legally i-ffcCed wiibout til*- owner bud been judicially c mvicted ol trea on; and Concur in opinion with the Dis patch that a> a man of sterling good sense, it is dlffljult to imagine that President John son could take any other course than the out ind cated. The idea of declaring that a man is a traitor, and of trying him on a charge of treason, convic ing him on that charge, and of c-nfic.iiig and selling bi property, without the party ever bring ar raigned before any Court, and without the forms and requirements of law having been complied with, wi 1 strike every calm and Impartial reasoner as simply unjust if no; exc< ediugly preposterous. S ctiou 2. article 3, ol the Constitution of the United States is tip ic ton this point Wo quote: ‘ - Tut tr ial of all crime, exc pt in cuts -s of impeach ment, shall bi by jury, and sue i trials shah beheld in 'he State where such crime eliul have been com ml. led, itc S e iou 3, same an cle, and elates: Treason egainst the United States shall consist on y to levying war against them, or in adherring to their ene mies, giving them aid and Comfort. No person shall be convic ed of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt set, or on confession in open court." From these clauses the intent of the lramera ot tue Constitution is apparent. The party Charged with treason must first be indicted lor treasonable practices, then arraigned be fore a jury of bis cauutrymeu be allowed the privilege ot c uascl and of introducing testi mony in his own defence, and tried in opeu Court, aec irding to the forms presented by law and universal usage. Whea these for malities are gone through with, and the par ty has been duly convicted, the penalty he„is personally to suffer will be declared by the Court, aud a suit lor the confiscation of his property may legally c nnmence ; but even tlie Constitution expressly sets forth that “No attainder of treason shall work corr up tion of blood, or forfeiture, accept during the H/e oj the parson attainted ” As soou as the man dies, or is executed by the process ol law, his properly must be restored to bis lega. heirs. Tue unwarrantable practice bat been lu many places, to cuarge men with treason, libel their property, confiscate aud Sell it, without trying the parties stigmatized as traitors in ope-n court before a jury, or paying any attention to the imperative and DumUialtable requirements ol the Constitu tion. No wonder, then, says our Tennessee c .temporary, that President Johnson, as a Constitution and law abiding man, should determine that such procedures are opposed to the Supreme law ot the land, as well as destructive iu their tendency, and that they should not be permitted any longer. The Lost Steamer Atlanta.— lt is B tated that the cargo cf the steamer Atlanta, the loss of which on her passage between New York anU New Orleans was announced by telegraph a lew days since, consisted ol 1,17a bales of Cotion, 300 buses of candles and one box ot meiciiandiso. Her passenger list included Miss Wolf, O. L viogston, Capt. M. 11. Wilson. C. 8. Smith, D Myers and lady, H: H. Malomey, W. H. Lawsory, D D. xer and Robert Oolde. Four boats left ibe sinking craft, one of which c ntalned three ladie-, a child and other pas-Bengers this capsi.-ed, aud all were lost. Two other bo a* were upset. Only one, containing lour persons, can have survived. A Novel Claim Paid. —The Nashville Priss and Times, of the 19th, says: In 1862, General Granger ordered all Wo men of ill tame in Nashville to leave tbe city.

The amount is not so material a, tl>- priadpU by which it is to be liquidated. Whether tbe sum to be rai-ed by taxatiou f»r tbe payment of interest amounts to a few th'msnnd dollar* more or less after the debt ha* reached thousands of millions, can make very little diff-rence to , the lax payer, but it does make a consider- j ih.e difference it a large part of Ihn j.rinci- | pul is to be redeemed. Our public debt has assumed a magnitude that is without parallel in the limited period . it has expanded to it 9 present proportions j The British debt in 181 C, at the close of a wnr of nearly a quarter of a century, was j $4,000,000; so that wo have attained to ' neatly three-fourth* of that debt in one-sixth !of the same time. A comparison of our j debt with that of England show* that whilst j that country increa-ed its debt to the amount I of twenty-six hundred and thirty-five inti- j I lions of dollars in twenty-throe years, bo- | ! iween 17»2 and ISIS, the United Stale* Imve j I au"ineiitoii their debt in four years to twen- j j ty »ix hundred and thirty-five millions. | So changed have been the views of states men in relation to public debt, that what would have been deemed iu tbe war of Itjll! a certain source of uathmal bankruptcy, is regarded, in less than fifty years afterwards, with complacency. Such ha 9 been the i growth of capi at, that its renovation is the work of a very few years; and the recupem :ive energies of a people engaged lu almost constant hostilities are rapidly restored. So confident are our people ou this head, that It uas had much to ao, in the conflict that lias jn«t c o‘ed. in preserving the public credit unimpaired. lu ladi tho entire debt of the United States was cancelled. Iu the war with Mex iC > we incurred a debt of upwards of sixtv millions of dollars, and at tba emnmei.ee- j ment of tho recent war oar debt was less than one hundred, millions of dollars, so , rapid has been the recovery of the nation and Ihe elasticity of its resources. Wliat i ‘we have to apprehend is the too great rapid- . ity of our measures tor restoring ot-.r finances ; i<> their pristiue condition. One of those measures of paramount importance is, of j Course, the resumption of specie payment.:— j On the hazard of doing this 100 suddenly we nave already enlarg'-.f A gradual resump- ! tion ia tbe suggest. nos a wise cnuti-m and j it\e te»sun of t-xp -risne -. Another of those j measures w hich may be expected to occupy 1 a large share of the public attention, con- | n»ct. f| with the finances, is the mode of re- ! deeming the principal. i people of theJJuitcd State* ara averse to a largo pul.'ic debt. They have hitherto asicriated public debt with war aud taxation and fhudiug. We are no converts to the uriesy that a public debt is a public bless ing; but there is a large share of wisdom in the policy ot leaving to tho future the care of u:e tuture, bv distributing tbe burden of a public debt over a succession of years, so as not to throw 100 great a share of that burden on the shoulders of tbe generation that has contracted the debt. In exempting posterity trom its due proportion of an obligation in curred for common object*—for the preser vation of the Union, in which the future has as large a slake as the present, Its proper distribution over a succession of years is as much the diciate ol justice a* of policy. We would not encourage auy form of re pudiation, but if Ihe holders of public obli gations are willing to extend the period of redeeming their principal—if they will post pone the payment of their bonds, not only fur an extended but an indefinite period.how are the principles of equity and public faith violated by such policy 'i Tho creditor Is willing and anxious to exchange a short for a long dated obligation, hy which he is uot compelled to change hi* investment, and Capital is not diverted from its uatural cuau uela. Tho redemption of our public debt need iherelore give us no anxiety uuless we be c me borrowers of foreign capital to too great au extent, or pay on our public credi t >rs with too great rapidity.,. If Congress wt-re annually to appropriate (bo i .rgaa sum to extinguish tho debt, (say ten millions per annum,) hy the usual process of a syiking hind, it would greatly o iatige the proper distribution ot capital. Tite policy of form ing a siuking fund has been nearly entirely superseded by the mod enlightened Euro pean governments, which discharge their public engagements by tbe direct application of their financial resources—by collecting taxes more than sufficient for current ex penditure and annual Interest, and applying the excess to the extinguishment of the prin cipal. The English sinking fund has been abolished since the year 1833. If capital ia to be increased at compound iuterest it will bo increased as rapidly in tbe imuds of the tax-payers as In those of tho Commissioners ot a Sinking fuud, and the ex- peuse of the machinery of such a tuud ran ue dispensed with by the direct application of tbe fiscal resources of the Union. It'these view* admit of practical applica tion, should there be a surplus niter the maxi aiurn of taxatiou has been reached, such ex cess Could be applied to the extinguishment of the debt; but it would appear to violate every sound principle of tiuaucu to creut.i n fund for the purpose by impoeiug taxes that would amount to a strain on our reiourcea. Should our Internal revenue yield a sum equal to the current expenditure and the annual interest of tho debt, the produce of the duties would admit of beiug employed tor the payment of the prineipalT or n specific sum could be so appropriated consistently with a reduced expenditure aud diminished taxation. Tite Grlat Stkam Hammer.—A London paper describes au immense steam hammer now being made by Mesara. Nasmyth A o<>., ofPalicroft. It is of gigantic proportions, aud will sgike a blow c.'junl to seventy-five tons. Tni* of course will require an immense anvil block, and tbe process of casting one lor it weighing two hundred ton*, was a work ot unusual interest. Tha process of manulacture was ns follow* : Tho iron was molted in two large patent tipper tujrcrs cupola furnaces, tweuty-four feet in height aqd seven feet in diameter. The moiteu metal was run into a mould in a con stant i-treara, supplied alternately from each mrnace. Tue process occupied ten hours. The metal was kept in a state of fusion by means of burning charcoal until the whole quantity was poured in. The anvil block measures twelve feet square at the ba.se, and twelve iect six inches iu depth. The figure is pyramidieal, aud it is cast base upward. The metal c mtains a certain proportion of Uessetnsr still. The huge castings is not likely to be perfectly Onid at tnree moDlhs heuca, und it will cer tayily not bo reducod to sufficiently low tempetaturo to bo dealt with uudor two months. When cold. It will ha turned over. Tue bed tor the reception of the block will be enclosed in a large circular wrought irou cylinder measuring twenty test in depth aud etgnteen feel in diameter. This will he sunk hi the ground and tilled with coucrele, »nd when finally deposited in its bed, the anvil will appear about two feet six inches above the ground. —Four gentieuieu from Northern Ohio are on a visit to Florida, as a delegation from a lingo community of German fanners, to ex amine the character of tbo climate and aoil, the pricu of lands and ibe temper and dia po-attou ot ths Inhabitants toward* foreign emigrants. -Gen.

The World cites the authority of Dr. Draper iu support ol a rather startling prop osition, that if suffrage is given to the Ne groes they will turn Mormons aud establish Polygamy. The logical connection is not very obvious between premises and conclu sion ou the part of the World, While tlie feat is chimerical. Tue author of tho article “Drouyn de Lultys ou Spoliation" well exposes ihe Incon sistency ot that statesman in defending the dismemberment of Denmark hy Austria and Prussia by the Uastuin convention while he is blind lo the spoliation of Savoy by France aud Italy in the late annexation of that kingdom to tho French Empire. But has diplomacy acted in a worse spirit iu that case than ia others lay which territorial trans fers have been marked in the history ot Europe from the earliest periods ? “>lr. Greely on the Bight ot Ujvolution’ takes him severely to task for hav ing advocated the right of secession at an early period of Ihe war. Mr. Greely will find it difficult to reconcile his theory with his practice as regards secession. “A visit to the Cunbri," is a capital sketch of a part of Italy now rarely visited, being out of the direct line ot travel. The article is written in a lively vein, aud is doubtless the product of a scholar. "The Works of Epictitua" is a learned contribuiioa, although brief, to classical learning “Afraga" is a romance in German, trans lated hy Edward Joy Morris, of which the article "has a keeu appreciation. The rest of the Jtaviews convey a good idea of the works and periodicals noticed. The foreign correspondence contains the current news in England, but which has been mostly anticipated by the newspaper correspondence of the New York journals.
