The oatetanding debts of New York | State gmount ; cnirty-nine million dollars. The debts of the cities, villages and towns of New York State amount to eighty-five mil- Hon dollars, New York’s share of the ascertained na- tional indebtedness is five buudred million doilara, making the total debt owed by the State of New York six hundred and thirty-four million dollars, The highest assessed valuation of all the Property in the State is, in round numbers, sixteen hundred and fifty million dollars. The debt of New York State, under six years of radical rule, will, therefore, swallow up one-third of the whole property of the State and two hundred and fifty-two mil- lions of the remainder. A few years more of the expensive attempt to force negro supremacy upon the nation and to build up an oligarchy of banks into a control- ling political power will increase the debt of New York to one-ha'f of the assessed valua- tion of all the property of the State. The annual taxation of New York is heavier than the permanent debt would indicate. We payin direct taxation this year to the State thirteen million dollars; to counties and towns, thirty-two millions; to cities and vil- Jages, including twenty-four millions in this city, about thirty-five millions ; to the national government for internal revenue, based upon the taxation of 1866, about sixty-four millions. This makes a total annul taxation of one hundred and forty four miilion dollars, or nearly twenty-thres per cent upon the per- manent debt of the State. This is the feast to which radicalism invites the country. A few more years of reckless extravagance in national and State adminis- trations and of corruption and robbery in tlie Revenue Department will drag us all down to general ruin. Tae Mortve Power.—The oligarchy of banks, eating into the substance of the people at the rate of thirty million dollars a year, are the principal motive power that has produced tho enormous taxation under which the country groans. _ Give Him His Pay. The Rev. Newman Hall, of London, Eng- land, was one of the English abolitionists who helped to get up the war of the rebellion in the United States. Afier trying to break up the Union he turned against the South and flopped over on the other side, and would, no doubt, have taken half a dozen different sides if there had been that number to take, He now comes over here to get his pay. Well, we hope the several abolition socicties in the city will fill bis bag with cold victuals’ and send him back. NOTES ON NEW BOOKS. Shatspenre in a New Light. “K. A. W.,” of Washington, D. C., puts forth the second edition of a four hundred page dissertation designed to prove that Shakspeare’s sonnets “belong to the hermetic claks of writings,’’ and have a sealed and secret meaning which “E. A, W.’’ purposes to reveal, ‘The arguments that lead him to this conclusion are not clearly stated, though every kind of authority, {rom modern Tennyson to ancient sioses, is quoted in aupport of the hermetic theory. ‘1he author's references include Goethe and Isaiah, Barnstorit and St. Paul, Chaucer and hing Davies Bottom, the weaver, and Jeremiah, the prop!

DOMINION OF CANADA. SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE REBALD. Meeting of the Privy Councli-The Sank Question—Mr. Cartier’s Militia Scheme= Papal Zouaves to be Recruited In Canada East. Mowrreab, Oot, 30, 1867. The Privy Council met on Sunday and Monday iast to consider, among %her matters, what was to be done on the baak question. Since the meeting an on dit has got abroad that the Commercial Bank will soon resume its business with areduced capital of $1,600,000, its late capital having been $4,000,000. M., Cartier's militia scheme is assuming large propor- tions, 250,000 men (aot 150,000) being now the number deemed necessary for the safety of the dominion. They are to be divided into two classos—the first class to con- sist of 50,000 men, who are to drill sixty days in the year and aro to bo armed with breech-loading rifles; tho second class to number 200,000 men. who are to be less drilied and armed with muzzle loadors only. Tho scheme is extravagant, and will be a serious siraia upon tbe finances of tho dominion. It is reported that a battalion of Zouaves for the Papal service is to bo raised in Canada Fast, I tramsiate the article relative to the project from the Corner d+ St. Hyoctnthe, whioh says:—" We learn from various Sources that it is propovel to raise in the different towns of the province of Quebec a battalion of Papal Zouaves.

To augment the numbers of the noble and brave little army which is gathering about the Pontifical throme to defend io the person of Pius 1X. truta, jus- ttoe and right, assailed by revolution; sach is the ides ‘hat inspires this essentially Catholic work, the accom. piishmeat of which would do so much bonor to Canadians, the descendants of France, that eliest child of the Church." ‘The journal evidently favors the project, which, how. ever, ia not lawful.
