The increase of infantry is comparatively
large, but Ihia arm of the service is that
which the (leiicial-in-Uhief recommends tin
beiioj; the miist eflieii itf.
Tlic orgaiii'atiou of an increased force, it
will be noticed, is ililleiCitt from that of the
old army. This iiuestion was fully consid
ered by oUieera of the army connecled wilh
this ileinit'tinent, and tti'ler much tlelibera

iigihtenlal Knysleju of three battalions to a

This, it irt believed, in Ihe best itrgnnl.al ion
now existing. Tim number of oliicers is
less than under the old pltm, nnd, tiii'toloie,
much lus expensive. Whether this organ
i.iitiou may hot utl vautageously be extended
to the old army, after the passage of a line
providing for a retired list, is a iiiestion
w hich may properly engage the attention of
CongrcKH.
hi making the selection of officers for the
new regiments, (wo courses seciuoil to be

nieti would bo promoted to places which
o'tgdit to be I'tilud by younger aud more vig
orous oliicers. The second was liablu to the
grave objection that favoritism might prej
udice Ihe claims of worthy oliicers.
After the fullest consideration it was de
termined, under tho advice of the Ueueral-
in-('hief, to appoint otic-half of them front

regimental commanders, nil except one tire

been taken iroin the regular nrmv ami til
volunteers now hmTvlee, while the second
lieutenants have been maitilv created by tho
promotion of mcritottu sergeants from the
regular (service.
The Secretary prefers tho volunteer sytv
tern to that of the regular army, and eonsid
era that till fears of its reliability have been
dissipated Ly the fads of the present war.
lie speaks in the highest terms of the vol
unteer force iu all respects, as soldiers, cit
izens aud men.
Tho calling forth of this large and admir
able force, in vindication of the constitution
ami the laws, is in strict, accordance v ilh
wise prudenco and economy, ami tit the
same time time in perfect harmony with Hie
uniform practice of the Lovei iiiuciit. Jhtt
three year.? ago, whi n Ihe authority of the
nation was contemptuously ached by the
Mormons in I.' lull, the only tntfe policy con
sist 'lit wilh Ihe dignity of the government
was the prompt employment of such an
overwhelming force i'ur tho suppression
tho rebellion as removed all possibility
fa lure. It will hardly bo eredilod, howev
er, that (he following "language in relation
fl at period was penned by John II, Floyd,
the t Secretary of War, and now tiulively
en .njrctl in leading tho rebel forces, who
have even les.i to justify their action tlun
the Mir limns ;
When a small force was sent to Utah, the
Mormons attacked and destroyed their
t ains, und made ready for a general attack
upon the column. When asulVieient power
was nit on font to put success beyond till
doubt, their bluster and bravado sank into
whi-peis of terror and submission. The
movement upon that territory was demand
ed by the moial sentiment of the country,
wtii due to a vindication of its laws and
t'ot'blitiitiun, ujid was essential to demon
strate the power of tho Federal (loveriuiieiit

lion, however formidable from numbers
position it might, seem to bo, .deijtiato
preparations and a prompt advance of the
nrmv was nn set of mercy and humanity

Wtth regard to arm, the Seeretury pays:
The at ins and ordnance sup) lied fi nm our
national armories, under the able supertii
tcnduioo of the Ordnance Uiui ati, compare
m, ist favorably with tho very host manufac
tured for foreign governments. Tho cele
brated F.ulield rille, so callml. is a simple
copy of llie regular arm niauui'.icliire 1 for
many years in the Hpringlicld armory.
1 c ions to the early part of last year, the
u.overnmi nt had a supply of arms ami mu
nitions of war sullioieut to any emergency ;
but through the bad faith ol those enlrti'd
ed with their guardianship, they wore tak 'ii
from ihoir proper depositories, and distrib
uted through portions of the country ex
pected to take pal t iu the eouten plaled n hel
lion. In const:, pieuce of the serious loss
thus sustained, there was available, ut the
commencement of the outbreak, a much
less supply than usual of nil kinds. Hut
through the e:d ami activity of the Ord
nance liincaii, the eiiibanii'..;meitt thus crea
ted has been iu a great lueasuie overcome.
As the capacity of the government anne,
ries was Hot eiiial to the supply needed,
even after having doubled (he force at tho
Springfield arm uy, the department found it
absolutely necessary tii procure aims to
sum extent 1 rout private iiianufaeltuois. Il
is believed that from these sources they can
be obtained e -pitil iu quality and not much
higher hi cost, than those made in the na
tional workshops. It wouhl, tnerelore ap
pear wise on the part ot the government
to encourage uoim-Mie ministry iiy supply

It will be seen that in the foregoing esti.
males no provision for the interest on the
existing iub!ic del l specifically appears.
The omission is only apparent, the estimate
for that interest being included in Ihe sum
of nearly (ifi.llliO.OOO already appropriated
for the year 1 802.
Nine millions will be required for the. in
forest on tho public debt to bo incurred du
riro.r the year.
Mr. Chase proposes to raise eighty mil
lions by taxation end two liundred and forty

tho Secretary proposes to Congress that a
duty of 2 hi ctr;. per pound be laid on brown
sugar ; of IJ cents per pound on clayed su

er refined sugars j 2' j cents per pound on
the syrup of sugar cane ; of six cents per

molasses ; ami it is propo.;-i in;u a tnuj ot
5 cents per pound be imposed on collet; 1.1
cents per pound on black tea, and 20 cents
per pound on green lea.
These duties, ho estimates, will product!
a sum of not less than twenty millions per
annum, In addition, he. estimates the reve
nue In in " duties of the present tar i IV led
tillecl' d by pi opo aid changes " lit not less
than thirty millions ; wilh an additional
seven millions from tlio "proposed duties
on articles non-exempf, nnd from changed
duties o'.i articles now cither lightly burd

To this a hi three millions tho estimated
proceeds from sales of public lands mak
ing un sixly millions, and leaving twenty
miliums to be mired, for this year at least.
" by direct taxes, or from internal duties or
both." Tho preciM) method to ra'so this
amount he docs not pu cgrfrt ; but gives in
formation fur tho guidance of Congress in
its fiction,
ll appears that a direct tas of one-eighth
of one per coui". ni vuloriin on tho v. hole

would prodv.ne a ti'im of $20,li!S,f.ri7. A

either Bum being largely in execs of tho
amount required. Tho Secretary Buggosts
that "very small properties nay be proper

Irish Views.
in bonds of indissoluble friendship,
Ireland mid the lb-public (r tho West. An
Ii iih Parliament cheered tho early struggles
of the colonists; ami thnt monument upon
Hroadwuy 1 1 tlio memory of the Irish Mont
gomoey 'testifies that not for nn ungrateful
people did Irish blood in tho War of Inde
pendence How. In America million of the
persecute. I Irish raee have found a home,
wealth, hlieily unit not or; ami it it oc most
true that Irish labor have contributed great
ly lo the aggrandisement of the republic, it
is also true that wilh no niggard hand has
that labor b.-cn rewarded. The defeated
champions of mativ a Iv.iropean strtiirgf
even our own roltigecs, actors :n tlio most
miserable attempt tiiat the u.nnals of revolu
tion record have been received in Now
York and other capital cities with the hon
ors iiue only to conquerors ami heroes.
When our country lay writhing hi the ago
nies of famine, and when tho government
whiuh had produced that, calamity refused
to disarm its idle war shi o in order lo car
ry food to cctr perishing people, tho Ameri
can llovcrmnout rushed to the rescue, and
in sending the M.eed.oiia frigate to Cork
It arbor designed not merely to administer
relief It) l!n.:l.in l's victim, but to administer
a warning to Knglaud he; sell'. Ireland has
not lorrot leu them cv i.t-i; nor ilocs sHo leel
less wai inly toward Ameiiean to-day than
she did liftc eu years ago, when the pmp'e
of Iliilil.n. un ler ttie pi t s.tu tii'V of Hie ven
erable llichard t i'l I i: ni:'.i, rendered hom g e
to the American ( iovcrnm 'tit. in the person
of Captain Clarke, of tlio Vielor. What
Irish In at t was there that did hut then
thrill with emotion on betl ilding the .Stars
and Stripes of Iho United Slates Hying from
the masthead ol many a gallant slpp in the
luirbois and rivers of Ireland? And what
Irish heart is tin, re ran now eomlemplato
uiiniovel tho i pcetaclo of that glorious
Union dismembered, and those Slats and
Stripes become general again, except in Ire
land, where it is prevented by I'.tiglish law.
We have alluded to foreign hdhienees
wo wi-,h to bo precise. Before Kuropi! ruul
America, solemnly and deliberately we lay
llie tremendous crime lit the door of Kng
laud. The South is but her agent in the
business, llritiiih intrigue, backed by lftit
ish gold, has accomplished thai which Brit
ish tu ins could not effect in 11 2, destroyed
at one blow the Ameiiean navy, cruslu'd a
rival lnunii fact tiring power, und regained
for herself her olden maritime supremacy.
Yes, w.i say il emphatically, iii' tiisitq tern
of the American Union (supposing it to be
elleetod, which may (5. id avert !) gives lvg
land a new lease of power, throws iulo her
hands the carrying trade uf the world, leaves
her without rival in every colonial market,

earnestly has she labored to i iu-cf the ruin
