The following is an extract from the ad-
dress Of DIR. Oliver Wendell Holmes before
the Alumni of Harvard College:
yet again, 0 brothers, this is not the
hour for sorrow. Month after month, until
the months became years, we have cried to
those who stood upon our walls TWatchman,
what Of the nightT They have answered
again and again: The dawn is breaking, it
will soon be day But the night has gather
led around us darker than before. At last
Glory be to God in the highest lat last we
ask no tidings of the watchmen, for both ho-
rizons East and West, burst forth in one
overAowing tide of radiance, the ruddy light
of Victory"

TIE NEW TX BnL-The COMMITTEES Of way

THE New TAX BIL-Ihe committee Of ways
and means have produced their tax bill after long
Szss~~---and Jh0ugn Objectionable or less in
Il details, it is far superior to the project they
submitted at the last session. Il provides for a
tax Of one per cent on all the properly Of the
country, md Az nothing seems to he said about
tic States assuming the tax, this heavy npost
must be collected Of the people. 1t will press
hardly upon every class in tie community, but
a. it ig necessary, and as it is imposed only on
eacse who are able TO bear it. we feel sure that
this feature Of the bill will give lise 10 no com
paints. The poor pay nothing. Only the rich,
ard those who have accumulated more than "A
thousand dollars Of taxable property, are reached
h9 the bill All this is admirable Just, fair, and
acceptable to the people, and though it will no
doubt be every whore considered onerous and
severe the people will cheerfully bear the burden
The taxation Of banks, insurance companies,
manufacturing companies is also levied on cor
rex,s Driarip2e5 Tie tax is OH their profits, not
on tletr capital as in our State law; not on their
dividends Ms in many Of the States, but on their
dividends and on the sums added to their surplus
e. az 70 reach every kind OF profit they have made
The per ceutage is severe-Gourteen per cent. on
these profits: but it ia not too much, considering
the wants Of the treasury.
The tax on auGtionecr5 as it does not reach
commission merchants and others who sell the
same class Of goods a. are sold at auction, is
fair, the tax on butchers, and bakers and cattle
brokers. is triHiae for there are none in the coun
try or iii the smaller towns, and will be felt only
ii cities and b. very few persons. Apothe
carries ana confectionaries seem to be unjustly
saglad out from other merchants and required
70 pay a license fee aud one per cent Of the gross
amount Of their sales. Doctors and lawyers arc
also dealt with severely, for we see no reason VIII,
their talent and labor should lie separated from
shat of others The per centage on salaries of
ene per cent. under fifteen hundred dollars, and
tao per cent. On the excess, will be cheerfully
aud easily paid On brokers and bankers, dis
si}lers and Wholesale dealers in liquors. hotel
keepers and keepers Of eating houses, the license
ICES ana the per centage will meet with general
appreciation.
On the whole tie bin seems wise and just;cer-
tainy it is necessary aud proper; and We hope no
congressman will vote against it for fear it will
not he popular. The people have sense enough
10 know that government need some revenue,
and that a war which exceeds in its proportions
every one recorded in history between nations OF
the same population, cannot be maintained by
promises to pay six months after peace. We
must pour our money into the treasury as we'll
