Tli# National Intelligencer of a lata dale present* a cheering view of the financial prospect* of tlio country bared upon the last monthly statement ot the Treasury. The receipts of the interual revenue have been increasing, and will be sufficient to meet the current demand* upoD the Treasury. TJio promising prospect# of abundant harvest* have qiijc&ened tho hopee of all c!asse?, and given a new impulse to commerce and manufacture?. The next thing ne'dful, ?sys the Intelligeuccr, will be legislative reform of our ey6trm of taxI? la nnniiKlo of miifvli inmrnvflmnnt in the subject ?f taxation and tho modes of collection. Instead of including in the list 1,600 taxable articles, they muy be reduced to sixty, or even lesa. The great object of British financiers, for many years, has be?n to devise a yuUm by <whicli tho required revcnuo would be raised with the least possible burden to iodu*try and productions. Tliey have so far effected this purpose thnt the taxes are duly collected from articled of luxury orconvenience leaving the rcce^saries of life attainable at the lowest prices. They select but a few comparatively small number of articles for internal or cuotom duties. The same course could l?? pro^eedwd with no great advantage by our Congress. A great iir.pulte wjll be given to manu.fac tures the cori-.'*g fall by n plentiful supply of, cheap food. If Congress will reform th? tax ai:J act upon the policy of leaving production ns little burdened a* possible, in stead of draining from it all ita vital power, th:re will l?e do oceasiou for the demagogue's cry of repudiation.

Mimtart Orders amd Law.?The military orders of Geoeral Sickles subvertiug the supremacy of the civil authority in North aud South Carolina, says tho Washington Exprett, have not been very much heeded by tho Chief Justice of the United States. It will be remembered thit General Sickles enacted a stay law by military order, and assumed the functions of a Supreme Legislature for both of those States. Wise as may have been his measures, tliey were unauthorized : and tha Chi?f .!?? lice, at Raleigh, pronounced them without force in reference lo the pleadings and practice in the United Staler Circuit Court. It doe* not become the Chief Justice to give the (auction of law to the extra legal assumptions of a Military Commander, though no one would be more ready than Chief Justice Chase to uphold the authority of a military ofiioer within his o wo sphere. i Equity Coi'rt.?The Court of Fquity for Ihis this District began on Mouday lust, Chancellor Lestane presiding. The business before the Court, up to this writing, has not elicited general iutereat, but from a f?w hasty visits, we are inclined to think that matters are progressing in a satisfactory manner. IIis ilouor is courteous aud dignified, and the solicitors are prompt and watohlul oin?r ?li?ir f - - ?sU. Further than this, deponent sajeth not, as be is unable to explain much that is going on. All tli* spectator* with whom wo have conversed are in the same. category. It's a good Court, nevertheless, so-called.

Adams, of Pickens.?,Ander*on Intelligentr. Maximilian.? A Washington letter says that Secret*rj Seward is greatly distressed, in consequence of the threatening conduct of tha ri? torious Mexican* toward their chief prisoner, Maximilian. Mr. Seward, in comtnon wiih other humane men, desices the defeated Emperor's life spared. Whether hie kindly feeling in behalf of that unhappy prince will be ol any avail, remain* to b* aeen.
