Mad my counsel been f ollo|red, Paria Wohld have been attacked --??IwtiofirT*ilvrere your counsels over? ruled? v Answer-After the victorious of Wei ?enhh'rg and Wo or th emerged from the Vosges and were marching toward Cha Ion^ Von Moltkes decided they should ?brae up sud aid in tho annihilation of tho army which BO hurriedly abandoned Chalons. I favor?d a continuance of the march on Paris, then unprepared for a siege, and to take it, or at least out it oil from the rest of France, which shoo ld be ' then'riv?r-r?n as quickly ns possible. When the depot of ?Seine Et Oise wat reached, it Was found a hard nut tc orack. ' First wo determined upon bom bqrdment from a secret park of artillery at.Ville Coubloy; but now came new dis agreements. The King, advised bj Moltke, determined to let famine reduct tho capital, trusting that Parisian dis cords' would hasten capitulation. Question-This plan was universally supposed to be your 'own? Answer-So far is this from truth tba ? now cease to disguise my iudignatioi at being exoluded from tbe councils wbei great questions are decided. Tho whol plan is now changed, for which I am heh responsible. I havo most ardently dc sired and strenuously urged tho bom bardment of Paris. Question-But you have the satisfac tion of having accomplished tho unities tiou of Germany?

Had my advice been followed Bavaria and Wurtemburg would hav been carried on tho wave which swop over Germany, and tho grand soheme c a united fartherland, and Deutohe Kaiser would have become a reality ii stead ot ? half-hearted confederatio about to be born. For me, the gret objeot of war never lay ou this side c theBhine, but on the sido where I meat should'exist ono great country, one grei people and one great empire.

The continuance of the plan of surveying distilleries upon the basis of tho forty-eight hoar fermenting period for sweet mash, is recommended. There is now nothing like systematic or orga? nized opposition to the enforcement of I the laws taxing spirits. Spirit metre tests are still under consideration. The continuation of tho present rate of tax on spirits and the manner of collection is recommended. A uniform tax of 16 or 32 cents per pound on grades and de? scriptions of manufactured tobacco, is recommended; the manufacturer to be left free to manipulate his tobacco as he I pleases. A special tax upon dealers who sell raw leaf to consumers, is recommend? ed. The number of bonded warehouses already established greatly exceeds that required to accommodate the export trade. Three-fifths of tho tobacco en? tered for export hos been withdrawn, thus securing foar to five months' credit. ThiB is an advantage over thoso who use stamps. The repeal of the tax on canned condiments and conserves, as imposed under the clause relating to canned meats, in sehende O, is recommended.

Nov 20 ta- H. MAXCY. H?T??a? Refer?* and ?arty Politic*. nation of Dem?crata and Li boral Repub? licans in Mis?our?, coupled with tho foot that nome of tho nev/iy-eleoted members of Congress' fr?m'th?T WOBV.?'who were elected anon the Republioan ticket, stand confessedly upon the same .platform of revenue reform with Democrats, appears to bav? revived the newspaper specula? tions of last winter in regard to the for? mation of ft new party. That the issues connected with the civil war, the institu? tion of slavery, and the policy of recon? struction are obsolete, no one will deny. That out of future political complications new issues will arise and eventually lead to the formation of new partie* ie equally plain. But what is not so clear ic, that it is in the power of any individ?ala r>r set of politicians to determine before? hand what those parties sholl be, oj? what shall be the precise lino of demarcation. Persons who talk about tho f cadi bili ty of organizing a new party by collecting to? gether a number of people who have heretofore acted and voted in opposition to each other, but who happen to agree upon one of the cardinal quos tiona o? the hour, forget that tho existence of parties is a matter of growth and development. Parties cannot be manufactured to order or put together by a species of political joiners' work, by a union of materials supposed to bo adapted to -the parp?se. The elements mast coalesce of them? selves. The division in public sentiment must have actually taken piuco, and.the masses of the people have; insensibly ranged themselvss on one side and the other of the dividing line, before the po? liticians come with their committees and caucuses and conventions to organizo tho party that is already formed, and provide for concert of action, among those who are already animated by. a common desire and a common sentiment. The other plan is to reverse the natural order of things. The platform should follow, not precede, the formation of the party. Another objeotion to the prospectus of tho proposed new party, if it baa been correctly reported, is that it famishes rather too narrow a foundation on which to rest a permanent or powerfal political oiganization. Tho necessity of revenue reform, we are glad to see, is being ge? nerally acknowledged, and the move? ment in favor of such reform promises to be popular, and we trust will prove beneficial. But revenue reform, like labor reforms, or like temperance, pro soots but a single issue, and those who are in perfect acoord on that one point may differ widely upon other pointe not less important in the politics of the country. It does not involve any prin? ciple or set of principles of sufficiently general application to con sti tu to the som of any man's political confession of faith or rule of political oondaot; nay, wo may go further, and say that in our judgment revenue reform ought not to be made a political question at all. It should never bo suffered to become a party issue, be? cause all parties should be in favor of it. Like tho purity of elections, honesty in the administration of justice, or the re? form of the oivil sorvice departments of the Government, it should pe the aim ?f whatever party happens to bo in power and bas an opportunity to apply tho needed remedy to abuses of which no party should be willing to assutue the odium and responsibility. In its strict application to the subject of the tariff, revenue reform ought to be the fixed and staple policy of the Government under a'l administrations. To confine tho expenses of the Qovern? ment within the narrowest compass, and to levy no more taxes than are required to meet those expenses, is the duty of all parties. A tariff for purposes of reve? nue, if not essential to the existence of the Government, will always be found in this country the cheapest and most avail? able means of raising the amount of rev? enue ordinarily required. Consequently, in the discussion of the tariff question, the crotchets and theories of free traders and protectionists are equally ? out of place. But to prevent the tariff from being perverted from its only proper and legitimate purpose of supplying the ne? cessary revenue for carrying on the Qo? vernment, into an instrument in the hands of the monopolists for the purpose of taxing tho millions of consumers for the benefit of a few wealthy producers, under tho hollow pretext of protection, that is the aim of revenue reform. . In? stead, therefore, of seeing this made tho nucleus of a new political organization, we hope to see the subject kept out of the domain of mere party politics alto? gether. Instead of furnishing a hew parly cry, we hope* lo ces thc canso of revenue reform enlisting the sympathies and receiving the support of the good men of both parties. By being made a party question, it will lose more support than it will gain, and wo should be dis? posed to distrust the sincerity of those who would so treat it. At least we should suspect them of thinking more of their own interests and of tho possible capital they may make for themselves out of a great popular movement, than of the success of tho cause in behalf of which that movement has been nobly under? taken.
