TO TAN. INCOriX IN
INDIA.

The Bombay journals of the 10th ult. report
facts of a somewhat alarming character, relative to
an organised resistance on the part of the natives
to the collection of the income tax.
The Bombay Gazette says :

We have a budget of bad news to send home this feet-
night. From all parts of the country the most gloomy
accounts continue to be received of the state of public
feeling in reference to the looms tax. Since the forms
of Mares to be seat into government have been
issued, the spirit of opposition to the tax hr been
revived In an intensified form, and from one and of lodic to
the other there is universal dienatest. In Bombay the
old trick of " shutting up shop" hie been tried spin, but
this time it is likely to be more successful than before.
Noformalcoattecthasbeeneatered ioto, butthersisa general
initialised* that business shall be suspended altogether
till the bona tax is abolished. The movement began
In the wonky, from which hardly a single order for goods
has been received for some time past. Now the native
bathers of Bombay have joined in it, and for the hat week
it hes been utterly impossible for wholesale dealers to sell
a piece of cloth in the bazaar. The resolution of the native
marehents is, to get rid of the stocks in hand, and then
close their shops. It ia even reported that the grain reer-
cheats have given direction, to their Motumil agents to send
no more grain into Bombay. The natives, too, are making
very large perehans of bar silver, sa If they feared there
' would be some new civil commotion, and were anxious
to have their property in a convenient form for hoarding.
The great Hindoo festival of the Dawdles mess off next
week, and both in Bombay and room it is given out that
the customary illuminations will not take piece, while not a
few persona apprehend that there will be some disturbances
in the bazaars. Not much tionfidenee, metortemately, is
felt in the government, which commiteedi the fatal We-
take of issuing papers so complicated and vexatious Health,
natives could not possibly comprehend them, and were
driven almost to henry by the number and character of the
questions they were required to answer. This has been
remedied now by the lime of simpler papen, which are
intelligible to every one, and oak for no more than a stele-
meat of the amount of aggregate profits. But the mischief
caused by the original blonder cannot be recalled ; and the
government does its best to make matters wane, by dis-
regarding in a spirit of apathy or fatal security signs which
remind every one of what preceded the mutinies of 1867.
The Bombay Times states that "all trade in
Bombay is at an absolute stead-still, the auctions
have to be closed, and nothing is talked but of
secret meetings of the castes to take measures in
concert for getting the tax abandoned." The
forms have been openly torn up in the bazaar
by parties upon whom they have been served,
while "the most successful efforts are being
made by the designing to aggravate the alarm
with which the tax is viewed. The minutely
inquisitorial nature of the information demanded
in these returns, affords but too ample scope for
the wildest misrepresentations of governmental
intentions in issuing them, and the deepest indig-
nation exists in the native community of Bombay
in consequence."

The Tckg►aph and Courier reports that a combi-
nation has been entered into between the bazaar
dealers of Bombay and thous of the Mofumil, and
Bombay is menaced with • famine, owing to the
stoppage of supplies from the interior :
Should the government, however, interfere and lend en-
ociuregement to European enterprise, the evil might, we
think, be nipped in the bud. It is stated that the
bazaar trader' are not going to observe the festival of
the Dowel**; a resolution which, if carried out,
may possibly seriously affect the interest, of the
British crown, although at present it minis most
improbable ; but se it within the first instance,greatly tend
to a reduction is the pries of cocoanut oil, we regard the
matter with cemplacesey, if not with indifference. The
festival of the Dewallas we a pleasing spectacle, greatly
enjoyed by the Lebo :ogee; but was not, that we ere aware
of, particularly popular ►mongst Europeans. Indeed, we
have heard serious complaints regarding the reckless expen-
diture of fireworks which was permitted in the open streets,
so that we cannot help thinking our Hindu° friends will
punish themselves, rather than alarm the government. We
harem little regard for the Mown' tax soother people, but we
have no sympathy with the sullen disposition which is meal.
fasting itself in the bazaar. In the meantime, the stopping of
trade with the interior is doing a great deal of injury to the
commercial Mete of the country. There being no market
fur manufactured goods, our mercantile warehouses are filled
with them, and unison some change takes place, serious con-
sequences may be apprehended. This is • sad state of affairs
in a variety of ways ; it not only locks up capital, and rape
the foundations of commerce, but it compels coneumen,
in the interior, either to pay what holders of stock demand
for their commodities, or go without them altogether. The
best plan to be adopted in an emergency like the present,
would be for importers and consignees to employ /defused
&genie ; to descend, for a time, to retail business, and, by
this means, the bazaar merchants would soon recover their
some., Government, we are certain, would render any
adet•nce to facilitate intercourse ►nd promote trade between
the people of the various cities and villages and the oom-
mercial agents of the Bombay traders, so that —to use • very
homely exprenion—our hamar dealers would, in time, find
out that to cut off their noses to spite their faces was as
destitute of wisdom as it was full of folly. The income tax
in its present form is doubtless • mistake ; but it appears.
to be • necessity which must be accepted; unless
the home government discover some more popular
method of making up the deficit in the Indian tree.
sury. The present position of India is bad enough,
but if the native merchant, and traders persist in
the course they are said to have adopted, they will only
precipitate a revolt, which may be the means of placing the
whole of the empire under martial law, extinguishing the
liberty of the press, and destroying, for a century, many
free institutions in the land. The government are, we be-
lieve, perfectly determined in the matter of the income
tax ; and we would, therefore, warn all, if they value
liberty or even its semblance, to acquiesce first, and protest
afterward*, in the legitimate manner observed by all con.
