I have read with interest your plan for paying the national debt, and would be greatly pleased to see the same succeed. To that end allow me to offer my mite— @ suggestion and @ contribution—as follows:—Let the “Roll of Honor’! be extended to include all sums, large and small, contributed for that purpore, with name of the donor; and let all volunteer army oflicers be invited to donate ‘towards this great end the three months pay npc dies them on leaving the service, now that the war isended. All officers of the regulars and other branches of the public service will doubtices willingly contribute a like sum, I mention this sum, because to many of our officers a sum, even of the small amount named, is more than they could well save from their salaries, espe- cially if they are men with families. But here is a sum which is extra—not counted in their plans to meet cur- rent expenses—and I doubt not that the officers of our gallant army who have spent so much time and money in the cause, will all gladly contribute the above amount towards giving this finishing touch to our glorious achievements. And I herewith tender my subscription of three months pay proper as an earnest of the parent eft views. 7 BEL! Captain Veteran Reserve Corps and Chief etdolance ficer Department of the South. The Herald Plan the Right One, TO THE KDITOR OF THE HERALD. The idea of paying off the national debt fpreeented in the columns of your paper isa true and great one, and can, if some proper plan is devised, be carried out. The capitalists and business meu of the country should first be made to see that it is for their interest to have this great leech shakon off the nation’s industry, Then, by combining with the government, means will be found— if the desire is fairly awakened—to achieve the end. Allow me to show, by a very simple calculation, how un- wise it is to have this incubus resting on the energies of the nation, devouring and renewing itself by interest every few years. Let us assume that the interest on the national debt amounts to seven percent. It amounts to more, if we include the expenses connected with the Treasury Department neccessary to look after the principal, collect the revenue and pay the interest. The capital and industry of the country pay peony trom two hundred and ten to two hundred And fifty millions a year as interest on the debt. If they could retain this sum they could add yearly seven or eight cent to the wealth of the country, which is 80 much additional loss. The offer is the same as if the le paid compound interest, Now, by asimple calcu- ition, we know that be given sum of money loaned and reloaned every six months at seven per cent doubles itself in ten years, in twenty years it quadruples itself, in thirty years it octuples itself, or augments eight- fold. In other words, the people in ten years will pay a sum equal to the entire debt, and yet will have the prin- cipal resting on their shoulders as before. In twenty years they will have paid four times over the entire debt, or twelve thousand millions, and yet, like a horrible rasite, it will still be there, and as rapacious as ever. in thirty years they will have paid the debt eight times and pearly a baif over, or more than twenty-five thou- sand millions of dollara. At eight per cent will, in twenty years, have paid it five times over, and in thirty years eleven times over. In fifty a half before, that the reproductive power years—supposing, as of the capital puid as interest is equivalent to interest on the ey will have absolutely paid the debt fifty- nine times over; that is, they will have paid one hundred and seventy-seven thousand millions of interest on a debt of three thousand millions, and still the ulcer left to eat away as before. It may be said that if the whole debt were paid now and at once that these produc- tive power of the capital would be lost, which would be equivalent to paying the interest. I answer that large gums are less productive, less profitably, managed than small ones, and, 8, SOME Means can be found not to withdraw the capital from active business jons. To sum up, the country will in ten years have paid the debt twice over, supposing interest aud expenses of col- Jecting to amount to eight per cent, and it will then have to recommence paying anew. Now, commou sense dic- tates that ifany ible means can be found we should get rid of this consuming burden at once and forever. Tf the of the Treasury could unite with all the State governments, and the latter with the counties, and employ all resources that can be devised; if commu- tations could be made with taxpayers; if public pro- perty could, fn part, be applied to the end; if a share of ‘all mines were nthe purpose: if the govern- ment iteelf would become a miner and employ twenty- thousand of its soldiers in the work, looking after the In- dians at the same time; if a national fecling were aroused, anda crusade jurated against the greagparasite, giving rise to great and public donations all through the land; if life annuities would be issued, which would pay the pri at the end of acertain time; if these ‘and a score of other means which men of thought could devise were brought to bear the national debt could be out. If Secre McCulloch would take the thing in hand and accomplish it he would, berides the real + good he would do, have the gratification of descending to posterity as the greatest financier the world has pro- duced. It is worth trying for, Some individtals may assert that the national debt is a blessing. It is simply idiotic to make any such state ment. very person jows that in private matters a debt hanging over one’s head ts the greatest of burdens and of curses, What is true of the individual is true of the nation.

SUPREME COURT—CHAMBERS, Before Judge Barnard, Ju 21.—Prederick A, Muller vs. Eugene Orekoy.— This was motion to. set aside an order of arrest, which developed a singular story of man’s treachery and woman's frailty, The plaintiff, it appears, is a musician, being engaged in one of ovr principal places of amuse- ment a6 first violinist. His wife is none other than Annetta Zanfretia, the danseuse, whose performances on the tight rope are no doubt familiar to many of our readors. In March, 1464, while the plaintiff was residing at Davenport, Iowa, he became acquaint. ed with the defendent (Orskay), who claimed to be a Hongarian nobleman and a person of exteneive meaua, The “Count —for such was his jong to Mrs, title, we suppose—waer assiduous in his atte Matler, and Ins. brief space of time euccceded tn fue ducing her to leave her husband, Muller had the de- stroyor of his happiness arrested, but agreed to with- draw the complaint against him on his promising to leave the city and never again to see Annetta, who had become repentant, and was anxious to return to her home. — Ors- kay then Went to Chicago for afew months, where he was seized with a desire to see hia victim, and hit upon on ingenious pian to enenare ber a eecond time. He vent her « telegram to the eflect that her father had just arrived from Italy, and was anxious to see her, The despaich had the desired effect, for in a day or so afterwards Annetta came to Chicago, and was met at the depot by her seducer, who again persuaded her to forsake her howe. Their felicity waa uot of long duration, however, for Mul- ler found out their hiding place, and again the gay lothe- rio was placed under arrest. This time the defendant ey bail; but prone, when the one was about to tried, be absconddd and left the State, leaving his bondeman in the lurch. Maller, who appears to be pos- sevsed of a most forgiving nature, forgave Annetia her second offence, and her to his bosom again, as if nothing had happened. Some monthe after this Muller had occasion to go to Louisville, and during his absence it was arranged that Annetta shou in New York, Here, strange to sa} present of some valuab! diamonds, took her to the Prescott House, in H street, and introduced her aa his wife. Two or weeks were speut quite pleasantly together; but one they quarreiled, and the Count, getting upon bis hig horse, abandoned his victim to the tender mercies of the world, Anvetia was obliged to sell hor jewelry and some of her clothing in order to pay the laudlore | bill, and finally her exchequer became so low that she was obliged to fall back on her relatives for relief.

Our Richmond Correspondence. Rrommonp, Va, July 18, 1865. ‘ ABSIGNATION OF THE FTATH TREASURER. The resignation of the Hon. W. Warren Wing, Treasurer of the State of Virginia, in the administration of Governor Peirpoint, will be tendered to the Governor, at the Exe- cutive Mansion, at twelve o'clock to-day, and will be formally accepted. Mr. Wing has been appointed Post- master at Norfolx by the President, the official papers naming him for the position arriving in this city yeater- day, Mr, Wing’s brief administration of the Virginia State Treasury has been both an able and acceptable one, He is foremost among those Virginians who combine within themselves great energy and capacity for the more difficult forms of business, while his genial man- nersand kind disposition have attached to him a large circle of warm and ardent friends, The people of Rich- mond, without distinction, the more sincerely regret his withdrawal from the State Treasury, as great expectations were reasonably entertained that his suggestive mind would develop a plan by which the bonds of the State would soon be brought up to par. Mr. Wing’s appoint- ment at Norfolk give universal satisfaction. THR NEW STATE TREASURER, ‘The successor to Mr. Wing in the State Treasury has not yet been fully determined upon, but it is understood in high official circles that the Governor will name an eminent financier from Albemarle county, THE THIRD DIVISION OF THE TWENTY-FOURTH ARMY CORPS, The gallant old Third division of the Twenty-fourth army corps, com| ‘of troops formerly belonging to the solid aud brave old Tenth corps, has been en up.

Some two weeks subsequent to Major General Terry’s taking effectual steps to quell the unfortunate disturb- ances at Norfolk some of the Northern ra took up the subject in a querulous spirit. The order of General Terry upon this subject will demonstrate that these oriti- cisms were very unkind. Immediately after the first outbreak at Norfolk the commanding officer was changed, and Brevet Brigadier General 0. L. Mann was assigned to the command of the gee pe the city. ‘Tho Mayor of city was notified by General Terry that unless he preserved good order and quiet throughout the city the military authorities would, and if it became peommmern the entire city government would be again sus- per Brevet Brigadier General Mann was directed by General T. to establish strong military mae and abolish the city police. He was also directed to try by military commission all criminal cases affecting the rights and safety of the freedman, and more especially those cases which depended upon the testimony of peo- ple of color, Thus it will be seen that while certain chronically carping Journals at the North were gravely beeroe ege with General Terry in relation to the Nor- folk disturbances, quiet had for many days reigned in that city.

Rounc tree, Esq., Mr. Turner and Mr. Whitney, and the presentation took place at the official residence of General Turner, opposite t he Jef!

General Turner, who made the first speech of his life, responded in a manner alike modest and appropriate, accepting the aif while whoily disclaiming his right to it on the grounds {indicated in the remarks of the representative of the donors.

[From the Chicago Tribune, July 15.) No part of the Internal Revenue bill excited co much discussion as the taxation of whiskey, and from no source did Congress expect to derive #0 much tnoome to the national Treasury, anit we regret to add that from no ) other source has so litle been derived in proportion to anticipations; not because the amount consumed has fallen off, or is less than the original estimates—not because production has ceased, for the quantity manu- factured has outsiripped consumption and only because the governm: nt has fail any considerable part of the impost levied on whiskey. that the annual consumption of high United States 4 10 ninety millions of gallons. The tax is two doll per gallon, and if the ex- ¢ise were collected on each gallon consumed, the revenue derived therefrom would be one hundred and eighty millions per anntim; whereas not a tenth, perl. Afteenth, of that sum is fuding its way into the Numberless fortunes have been made by dealers by the rise in the price of whiskey since the tax was laid ale prouite amounting to between two ired millions of dollars, = The nd its Way into the Treasury nificant to these immense and is receiving u the profits on wh from the key than ft derives (rom the direct tax on the article itself, moty ithstand © Income bax will not average more thon five or six per cent on the sums realized by the distillers and dealers. The rate of taxation was raised from $1 50 per gallon to $2on the first of January. Bit months and a half bave since then intervened; the consumption of whis« tax on key meanwhile cannot have been less with. in” the States subject to the operations of the law than thirty millions of gallons. But the re- ceipts into the Treasury from this source, instead of Veing sixty millions, have not, we are informed, amounted to four millions from the beginning of the ear 1865 to this tne. It isin proof before the Tax evision Commission, now in session in New York, that the stock of whiekey in the country on the lat of July was but little, if any, leas than on the Ist of January jast, aud the price rales atabout the government tax— Fm rene fow cents higher and at oilers afew cents lower. ‘There {s but one conrlusion to be deduced from there facts, viz, :—That illleit distillation in the United States and smuggling from the British, provinces very nearly equal the whole consumption. This is equivalent to eay- ing that the government is belng defrauded of more than two millions of dollars per week, or more than one hun. dred millions per year, from this one source of revenue, Here in money enough lost, whieh, placed in @ sinkt fond, would pay off the whole nations! dobt Inside o twenty years, or would pay two-thirds of the interest thereon. And the consumers of whiskey gain nothing by these monstrous frauds, as they are obliged to pay jost as much for the Iiqnor as if it had honcetly paid the Tall excise, It ia tolorably well _knowa by the revenue bureau that in the single State of New York two hun- dred and fifty illicit stills were in operation in May and June, Most of them were small ones, it is true, yet in tho a ce cong per Many thousan lone per day, Add these to the still twenty other States, surrepti- tlously in operation, and then calculate how much nek can {fraudulently throw on the market, Remomber tl this i# a very large country; that there are many places for concealment; that all tax collectors and assersors are not faiphful and vigilant, by any means; that the temptations to (raud are great, and the profits of untaxed whiskey enormone, equulling those of the African siavers, Suppose a little concealed still should make a barrel of high wines a j the profits on it are one bundred dollar, Or at the rate of thirty-six thousand five hundred dollars per year. Oaths go buta short way against such profits, Indeed it ia reported that several respectable witnesses have tostified before the commission that many pe. importers and whiskey dealers, do not regard taking « false custom house or whiskey oath as moral perjury, They draw a fine distinction betwoen legal and moral perjury. The former they consider a* & question aifecting only the pocket and not the conscience ‘The quantity of whiskey smuggled from Canada is be.

The confederates realize one dollar between them, for what cost them but forty cents to make; a clear profit the transaction of sixty cents per fatten and the Seulery a8 confiscated because it is the property of jonest 4A.” Another method is that where the owner of the dis- tillery, after making a suflicient quantity, gets a neighbor to complain of him, the proceeds of the information money being divided, as yusly agreed upon by the conspirators, A third method, and it is believed the most frequent one, is by collusion with the Internal Revenue officers by which false returns are allowed to be made, and certificates. of inspection issued for more whiskey than ts required to pay the exciae, One of the recent whiskey frauds in Iowa was of this character. Two thousand barrels were manufactured by @ concern, and duly stamped and certified by the assessor and inspector, but only one thousand of the barrels had paid the tax. The other thousand was thrown on the market and the proceeds divided with the dishonest and perjured offi- cials, A detective of the Treasury Department, who had not been bribed, discovered the fraud, and caused a seizure of tho contraband liquor to be made. How shall these frauds be stopped? What method can be devised to compel every gallon to pay the tax? This is the most important revenwte problem that can engago the attention of the Commissioners, of Con; of the Secretary of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue offi- cers. If the excise can be honestly collected it is per- fectly safe to calculate on one hundred to one hundred and fifty millions of revenue from this one source, When that is accomplished there will remain no longer any question about the entire ability of the government to pay the interest on the national debt and Pay, all other federal expenses. And something must be done to stop the enormous swindle snow practised almost with impunity, else the tax had better be at once repealed or reduced to a rate so low as to make it no longer an object to cheat the government of its dues, DISTILLATION AND CONSUMPTION OF LIQUORS. ‘The liquors distilled in the United States during the year ending June 1, 1800, according to the census re- turns, were as follows:— No. Gals.

The Late Insurrection in Hayti Sup- pressed—The Chiefs of the Insurrection Have Fled—The Affair Dwindied Down to a Riot—The Chief Rebel, ve, in Flight, &. OUR ST. DOMINGO CORRESPONDENCE. Hayti, June 17, 1865. The ingurrectionary movement in Hayti, reduced to a few hundred malcontente, shut up in the town of Cape aytien, and closely invested both by sea and land, was, at the last advices, nearly suppressed. President Geffrard issued a proclamation on the 14th ult. declaring the port of Cape Hayticn in a state of blockade, and tho war steamers Geffrard and Mariani ‘were stationed at the entrance of the harbor to enforce it. In addition to which the government bad eight thousand men strongly posted on the heights overhanging the town, and a train of seige guus were just landed and about to be put in position to bombard the place. The rel forces, consisting chiefly of Do- minicang, entirely cut of from succor, having suffered severely from tl hepa, of the government sharp: shooters, were being constantly thinned by denertion, and their supplies were n: arly exhausted, while the be: sieging forces, well mappl with provisions, were re- ceiving continual accessions of men and munitions by land and water, Were it not that the commander of the government Carrié, carrying out the Pre- aident’s desire, wit to spare the effusion of blood and the horrors attending the taking of the town by assanit, the affair might have been terminated some time ago, city was on the pomt of being captured on the 6th ultimo. Their outworks had .besn stormed and the columns were about moving to the attack of their main position, when a suspension of hostilities was asked for by the foreign consuls resident at the Cape, The request was acceded toby General Barthelemy, commanding the troops engaged in the as- sault, on the express condition that no change should be made in the position of the forces on oither side; but the insurgents treacherourly seized the occasion to strengthen their ition by the erection of new works and by opening fire before the expiration of the time demanded by them. The whole affair |s of foreign rather than domestic origin, having been concocted beyond the jurisdiction of the Haytion government and inaugurated by mercenai troops enlisted from ameng the population of the ad- Joinng republic by an Haytien outlaw. A few corrupt men at the North favored Salnave’s attempt, but the mass of the Haytion population are con- tent with the government of President Geffrard, mani- festing their preferonos by the alacrity with which they rallied to its defence? and repulsed the invaders, What- ‘ever sooming ‘ss may have attended the insurgents at the outbreak was due to treachery and terrorism, and not to the disaffection of any conb ble portion of the native inhabitants, This is proven by the enthusiastic reception everywhere extended to the national forces, and by the return to their allegiance, at every opportu nity, of such troops av may have been Inveigied ‘nto the ranks of the insurgents by the treachery of a few un- worthy officers. The rest of the chie’ of the conspiracy having fled the country, it ix to be hoped that the speedy capture and execution of Salnave will put an end to any further attempts to overthrow the most liberal and en lightened government (hat the Haytien people bave ever enjoyed eae aa mem TT OR MARRIAGES AND DEATHS Married. on Thars- July 20, by the Rev.
