SS ey - does not amount to more than one hundred and ‘capital been provided with steam fire engnseé the ravages of the fire in question would, in all probability, have been arrested before it had resulted in consequences 60 serious. But it is to be hoped that the government, if not the local authorities, will now see the necessity of increasing the efficiency of the fire brigade without further procrastination. Our Wer Burthens—Secretary Chase's Fiscal Plans. We publish this morning the pamphict recently issued in Washington in support of Secretary Chase’s projected alterations in the -ourrency. They may be thus briefly summed up. First, a circulation of notes bearing the stamp and issued under authority of the govern- ment; secondly, the redemption of these notes "by the associations and institutions to whom ‘they may be delivered for issue; and thirdly, ‘the security of thatredemption by the pledge of iUnited States stocks and an adequate provision -of specie. This plan, it will be seen, is merely ,an extension over the country generally of the saystem of securities by which the currency of the State of New York is guaranteed. There tis, of course, a difference in the uniformity of “the circulating medium; but in all other respect$ ‘it isthe-same. As it may meet with a- strong ~Oppositioa from the banks. whose issues it will »drive out of circulation, Mr. Chase has endeavor- ed to conciliate this difficulty by an additional ~clause, by which it is proposed to enable all existing banking associations to become nation- al institutions. These institutions, it is argued, ‘will then become fiscal agents of the Treasury, and may with propriety be made the means of collecting the national taxes and all other dues ~except those on imports, the commissions on the government business enubling them to double their capital as a means of profit. This is all very well; but it is obvious at a v@lance that it will go but a short way to help Mr. Chase through the embarrassments entailed supon him by a heavy war budget. He has money enongh to last him to the 15th of next -umonth, and can then have recourse to the thirty vanillions of demand notes which he is authorized to emit under the act of Congress. But this ~will only carry’ him a few weeks further, and ‘some plan must be meanwhile devised that vwill bring present relief to the Treasury, “The aid which he calculates upon obtaining ‘through the alteration of the currency will not avail him for immediate wants. The whole pa- ‘per circulation of the banks of the loyal States ‘fifty millions. On this he can only count to the extent.of the amount of the new currency ~which may be absorbed by the banks that will ‘be oalted into existence or rechartered under tthe provisions of the proposed act of Congress. “Then, again, it must be remembered that it will ‘take some time to effect the conversion of the eexisting currency in the manner indicated. As @ feature of a comprehensive scheme of finance, there would be, perhaps, little to object to in ‘the plan; but how it is going to aid the Secre- tary in providing for present exigencies we ihave yet to learn. As to the idea of flooding the country ewith Treasury demand notes, it is not to be -entertained for a moment.

Since the affair of the Trent they give utterance, from day to day, to insolent invective which can only tend to embitter the feelings of two neighboring communities towards each other. This, apart from questions of taste and justice, is calculated to result injuriously to the province, by produc- ing commercial as well as moral alienation between the United States and Canadas, and it is quite within our power to cancel the treaties which exist with our British neighbors. It is not, however, so much gennine indignation as a parasitical sympathy with all that they hear from the other side of the Atlantio that the Canadians feel. Because Jobn Bull has bluster- ed aloud and the British lion has roared in anger, the “Bluenoses” seom to feel it duty to vapor like some of the Liverpoo} merchants when ‘they addvessed ~-an indignation meeting, @ proceeding which has been very properly denounced, even by the London journals. Why did the Canadians not make the snti-American demonstrations they are now enacting.before they heard of the effect in England of the capture of the rebel envoys? This second hand indignation and imitation patriotism does not siton them with a good grace, and it would be well for them in future to curtail their unprovoked philippics, and ob- serve moderation in all things. Cootuxc Down Sowxwaat—The tone of the advices received by the and Arago indicates an improved feoling towards us on the part of the English press. This is attributable less to misgiv- ings as to the propriety of their course than to newly awakened distrust in regard to France: The omission of that passage of Jeff. Davis’ message, in the Monitew, which repudiates the Possibility of a reconciliation between North and South has startled a good deal the journals in England which have been trying to precipi- tate a war between that country and the United States. It is one of those facts slight in themselves which have always bad a premoni- tory significance in the Emperor's diplomatio moves. Then, again, the sudden return home of General Scott after an interview with M. Thouvenel, . although he had bnt just ar- rived in France in search of health, has not contributed to lessen their perplexity. They do not know how to interpret circum- stances so suggestive of a line of policy on the part of the Emperor different from that which his previous assurances to the British Cabinet had foreshadowed. There has been all along a lingering suspicion on the part of the English public that their imperial ally bas been nsing them as the monkey did the cat’s paw—to draw the chestnuts (cotton) out of the fire. They are now beginning to entertain a belief that the French neutrality, upon which the Constitu- tionnel insists so much in the event of a war ‘ciation .of ,property would soon be the re- rault of such a suicidal proceeding. We have an <example of this in the present condition of the webel States. The bonds of the government are snow at a discount of thirty per cent, andina «couple of months more, should fortune continue sto smile on the federal armies, they will be little more valuable than were the assignats in the ttime of the first French Revolution. We would sapeedily be reduced to a similarly disastrous -condition were we to enter upon so reckless and ‘improvident a course; and it would be the less -excusable.in our case, seeing that we have other and more legitimate means for providing for the «wants of the government. The-only really safe and honest mode of do- ing this is by loans secured by the public taxes. ‘Under this system England has risen to a condi- ‘tion of unparalleled prosperity and greatness. “It is certain that if our national debt were swelled ‘toa thousand millions thus guaranteed our ‘financial credit. would not only stand higher in ‘foreign markets, but an immense reform would ‘be effected py it in our political institutions: ‘Men of substance and respectability would then ‘take greater interest in the affairs ofthe country, cand would see that State and national legisla- ~tion did not fall into the hands of professional politicians and rowdies. The sooner Con- greas and the country make up their minds to the recognition of this principle in our fiscal «syatem, the sooner we shall take Secretary Chase -out of his difficulties. There is no time to be Lost in its practical application. Tue Leaisu ative Jovs—We have stated on mumerous occasions that a iarger number of _jobs were being cooked up for the Legislature “to act upon this winter than for any previous «session fora number of years. As evidence of ithat fact, we give a tabular statement of a few + of these schemes that have come:to our notice, with the amounts that the parties for and against -are interested, in immediate funds, prospective, -in salaries of offices, political power, as well as the extent to which the general public will be affected by the transfer of property and depart- ments to new hands:— » fale of ‘ty owned by the city, in routes and adja- cont vieeote under the pretence of koma sins imarket property. nm 3 2,000,000 7,000,000 1,000,000 1,000,000 ‘500,000 open p00 900 im k ‘Heath ain are litical influence, &c. 600,000 ‘Amendment of the city charter, abolishment Team ee as ‘it at a ‘on ef tl ees, with ies and con. igiithe tingvociee anions ING Oss. e. sees = of Passenger and Baggage com- 100,000 Reda oi Berit, County Clerk's, Regis oar " 4 mis ano papesltaes 200,000 *s and other abelishment of "he D Board of ixcise Commis- We might thus goon and enumerate other Upills of more or less importance, such as street railroads in interior cities, insurance, &., which ‘would swell the amount to about forty millions 2No wonder that there are enormous prepara. «tions on foot for a grand rush to Albany; that ‘the professional lobbymen are engaging rooms ‘in all parts of the city, in both public and pri- -vate houses, and that the “Little Villain” con- ssiders it will pay to keep an open honee during the session. Confiding Cummings’ twenty-one thousand dollars worth of linen pants and straw hats are no comparison to this grand field of operation, and we congratulate the Sprace treet philosopher on the prospects of the between Great Britain and the United States, may in the end turn out just such a neutrality in our regard as that of England has proved in reference to the South. The bare sus. picion of this fact is enough to make the most ra. bid of thesecessionist sympathizers amongst them draw in their horns, and calcifate the chances of a contest in which they might have a French fire in their rear. If they had not been blinded by their passions they would have taken it into ac- count before. France can have no object in as- sisting to provoke a rupture between Great Britain and the United States but to cripple the naval power of the former when she gets her involved in a conflict with another great mari- time Power. It was with this view that she has been trying to induce her to break the blockade; it is with the same view that her press has been since hounding her on to a war with us. This con- viction seems at last to be breaking in on the sto- lid English mind. Let us hope that it will have the effect of recalling it to something like a sense of decency and reason. . Tax BrockavE or THE Poromac.—While the rebels are boasting that our only direct water communication with our national capital is under a blockade which no vessel can pass, except in a very dark night, or by special per- mission of the Confederate batteries, the ques- tion is still agitated this side of Washington, why is it that, with two hundred and fifty thousand men encamped along the Potomac, and with any quantity of war ships and gun- boats at Fortress Monroe, Annapolis and other convenient naval stations, this rebel block- ade of the Potomac is still permitted to exist. In this connection we are asked what is the loss entailed daily upon our Treasury by this blockade, in the matter of the.overland transportation of army supplies to which we are thus reduced. In reply we can only conjecture that the plans of General McClellan do not embrace any little piecemeal operations, such as would re- sult from any detached attempts to break up this rebel blockade. We might silence and remove a rebel battery to-day only to find it replaced to-morrow. Or, to hold this position, that and the other, against all contingencies, we should require a large force at every point from which the rebels might be dis- lodged, and thus our whole army of the Potomac might be frittered away into de- tachments divided from each other by almost impassable ravines and intersecting streams and creeks, and subject at any time to be cut up in detail by a combined movement of the enemy from the open approaches of the interior. The only effective way to break up this rebel block- ade of the Potomac is to dislodge the army of Beauregard from his position in front of Washington. With its expulsion this blockade will cease to exist. Let us be patient yet a little longer. Rome was not built in a day.
