Tho subject of tn ration is a vital one to every person in this country, and it becomes deeply interesting to know how our Government meets its enormous obligations, and where are its great sources of internal income. The dry report of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, in this view, will bear a further analysis. In three years, wc learn from his statements, the amount- from internal taxation has almost trebled itself-rising from $117,145,748, in 1803-'64, to $310, 900,984: in 1SGG. Ot' this largo sum, nearly one-fifth is derived from the income tax, or $(?0,804,135; this, again, has more than quadrupled since 1863-'64, being then $14,919, 279. From this tax paid on incomes, $26,570,809 were at five per cent., and $34,510,122 at ten per cent. The Commissioner undies returns of the number of persons in 185 districts or nearly 87 per cent, of the whole paying taxes on different indomes, and we discover that 100,180 persons in the free States have less than $1,000 per annum, and moro than $600; 162,513 have more than $1,000 and not more than $5,000, and only 31,000 show an annual income of over $5,000. We next observe with great satis? faction that nearly 30,000,000 of our taxes (or $29,198,178) are raised from distilled spirits and $5,115,140 from fermented liquors. The experience of all countries agrees that one of the most profitable and the soundest objects of taxation aro distilled liquors. Such a tax encourages the use o? light wines, lessens intoxication, and is laid on a luxury, and a per? nicious luxury. We regret to hear from the report that this tax is so largely evaded, and to observe that it has only increased about 1,000,000 since; 1814. lu the fiscal year end? ing November 1, 1866, it bids fair, however, to be much larger, reach? ing $37,627,595. The tax is now $2 a gallon, or ten times the tax of 1864. Again, among luxuries, we find the tax on tobacco to be $12,339,921 in 1866, having almost doubled since 1864; on cigars, $3,474,438, or more than doubled since 1864, when it was $1,255,424. The production, how? ever, of taxable tobacco has fallen off singularly from 63,372,426 pounds in 1864 to 35,748,351 in 1866, which, even making the allowance mentioned of 10,000,000 pounds entered early in 1864 to avoid the duty, would seem to indicate that the tax had been made so high as to become prohibi? tory, and thus cause our people to give up to a certain degree this indulgence. On petroleum, a very questionable tax raises the large sum of i?5,317,396, more than doubled since 1864. On iron and steel the tax has nearly quadrupled in amount pince 1864, being $13,728,133 against $3,694,168. A very important source of income to the Government is from revenue stamps, undoubtedly one of the most judicious taxes on the list. This has risen nearly three times since 1S64, from $5,894,045 to $15,044.373. Li? censes, too, have more than doubled then- return; it being $7,145,388 in 1804, and $18,015,743 in 1866. The taxes on bank dividends amounted to $4,186,023, and on de? posits to $2,099,635; on insurance dividends and premiums, to nearly $2,000,000; on railroad dividends, tb nearly $3,500,000. . From this; it will be seen where we derive our immense internal revenue, which is said to bo the largest in? ternal revenue ever taken by volun? tary taxation from a modern people in a single year. Incomes, stamps and licenses, liquors and tobacco, are the great resources. The experience of Europe has al? ready confirmed the wisdom of Mc Culloch's recommendations, that the taxes should be few, simple, and laid on luxuries. We regret that the Commissioner has not called the attention of Con? gress to the petty and vexatious taxes which now so annoy and hara? the people. This taxing of spoons and pianos and watches, and all the endless small burdens laid on many of the trades, are unprofitable and entirely behind the enlightened views of taxation prevalent in the most civilized countries. They worry the producers without yielding much gain to the Government. |[?WJO York Times. Affairs In Ireland. The New York Herald, of Tuesday, says: We learned by tho cable, yesterday, that the London Times pronounces the Fenian movemeut check-mated, and an attempt at rebellion mndness, meaning, probably, by that expres? sion, that troops enough have been sent to Ireland to quell any force that the Fenians can bring into the field. It is a curious fact, that although we receive by telegraph, every day, some mysterious news about this move? ment, we have not yet heard of a rising in any definite part of Ireland. The significant expression was flashed over tho cable, on Saturday night, from London, that two more cavalry regiments had been despatched to "the scene of the disturbance." What disturbance? Aud where was the scene of the disturbance, if any took place? Was it in Dublin, or Belfast, or Cork, or Limerick?-for all those places have been seriously disturbed for some time. We further learn that the Cardinal Archbishop Cullen has issued a pastoral, cautioning the peo? ple against allying themselves with secret societies; but it occurs to us that the warning comes too late, when we remember that the Fenian organ? ization has been going on for moro thau eight years, and is not likely tc be demolished by a pastoral lettei just on the eve of an outbreak. But, supposing the Fenians to be check-mated, it will only throw then: into the hands of John Bright, whose movement is more formidable than Feniauism. The latter organization is only one of the revolutionary ele ments now at work in the British empire, aud, of itself, can probably do little damage to the Government, but, allied to Bright's movement, il may become a serious affair to the governing classes, who aro already alarmed for their tenure of power Meautime, trade aud commerce ir I Ireland are iu a state of stagnation aud the operations of capital are, o j course, paralyzed. How long ?hil state of affairs is to continue, mai depend more upon Johu Bright thai upon James Stephens. Su UK ATT TO BE FRIGHTENED IST< TESTIMONY AGAINST Mn. DAVIS.-Tin Washington correspondent of th Baltimore Gazelle says: lu a recent letter, I ventured th' suggestion that, in view of the insuf ficieucy of the evidence to couvic Surratt of a capital offence iu a civi court, and consequently, by implica tiou, throwing doubt upou the right I eousuess of th? sentence which ; military commission passed upon hi mother, the radicals would attempt t relieve the commission from publi odium by an energetic prosecution o the son. and attempt to charge hi ? acquittal of such an offence to cop perhead perjury and rebel sympathy But how greatly did I under-rate th audacity aud impudence of the fae tiou now ruling the entire countr with au irou rod-and who laugh ii the faces of their credulous followers Surratt, we are now told, is to b white-washed into a witness agains Davis; or rather, he is to be manipu lated by the immaculate Holt, am through tho machinations of som new Conover, (perhaps the Canadia "gentleman," who served iu bot armies during the late war, aud mor recently turned up among the Fope' Zonavei.s.) and, under threats of deatl; induced to suboCribe to some coe and bull story, implicating innocer. parties in the assassination ploi which, by the way, is now fast as I suming the proportions of thefamou j "plaat" of Titus Oates. The Chrc nicle, of this morning, distinctly fore j shadows this scheme. "It is r< ported," says that infamous shee "that Attorney-General Staubery hi decided upon the trial of Je;ff. Dav at liichuiond, some time eluring tli spring of 1867. John Surratt, re cently captured iu Egypt, ami no on his way to this country, will pre bably be placed upon the witnes stand at the Davis trial, his compl city with the conspirators renderin him a valuable witness in regard I the part played by the arch-traitor i the assassination scheme." Can tl equal of this compound of audacit recklessness aud villainy be fouu anywhere in history, except, perhap tho charge against Charles II of it I plication iu the plot to assassina j himself? A New Orleans despatch says: "The news 'rom the Kio Graudo thought iudicative of implacable he tility to American intervention in tl affairs of Mexico, and that any effc of tho kind will causo more unit? opposition than is now made agair. sucli intervention by the empire.

Dec ll ly FEVERS, CHILLS, AGUE, &C_ The cause of fever is thc contamination of tho blood by some morbific agent. The nerves connected with nutrition and or? ganic contractility suffer alteration in their composition. Thc muscles, deprived of nervous influence, begin to waste, and this waste produces heat. The heart is in? creased in its action, and the blood is ren? dered still moro impure by receiving the wasted tissues by the continued action of the morbid agent, as well as by the func? tions of the lungs, liver and spleen being impeded. Purify, therefore, the springs of life, the blood. Use the "Queen's Delight," the great blood remedy, and all morbid rents will be removed. The Queen's De? light has cured many cases of contamina? tion of the blood, chill and fever, typhoid fever; eruptiso fever will bc prevented by tlie free use of the Queen's Delight.
