Income Tax-Graded Assessments.

Permit suggestion in reference to the present
graded assessment for income tax The priscipte of
graduation is already practically adopted by the exemp
ton Of n numerous class, supposed to have
plussge bare necessarics OF subsistence and who
therefore pay no tai. The propriety Of such exemp-
ton is not toned, but what necessary sub
sstence-has it no relation TO the number which are
be subssted Ii the bachelor needs all Of $500
support existence, exclusive of meerschaums. DC,
&C., will that subsist widow withone two
docrept parents and half OF children Surely
the latter not supposed live air Yet such
is the absurd presumption of the statute
From the exempts, the Law bounds with stride
to the next class, which really includes many who
more necesstous, and demands per cent. and then,
with couple Of comparatively easy steps, completes
its gradatons the annuitant of $1,000 being asked
10 per cent and the millionaire being called for no
more. Now why so long stride from nothing to five
per cent, and why such few and easy steps above
that II the rate Iee9o ought to exceed that on
5000, why ought not the latter to exceed that on

Again, where the owners Of vast improbable

"reminiscences of the Friends, No. 2.

BY A. OUTSIDER
strong and earnest Preacher By the name OF Elias
Hicks, made himself more offensive than others IN this
respect Re appeared to have been very just and
conscientious WITH great reverence for God and
exceedingly little for human authority.
Every where, in public and in private he lifted up
his voice axairs the sin Of slavery, and practically
carried il out in his intercourse with the world By alb
staining from the Of the products Of slave labor
In remark able he Inanifes ted ruling passo
strong IN death. & few hours before he departed
from this world, his friends seeing him shver, placed
cotton eoveret him. He felt Of it with MS
feeble hands and made an effort 10 remove IT, One
OF his friends eonjecturei the cause, and inquired
"Dost thou dislike il, because il is cotton ?" He vas
far gone speak; but be moved his head in token
OF When they removed the article OF slave
produce, he remained quiet and passed away in peace
His quiet beldness remarkable.
When he engaged in travelling as 3 Minister,
his testimonies against slavery were more earnest and
casions Shareholder who went TO hear aim from
curiosity left the meeting in great wrath, swearing ne
would blow out that fellow brains if he ventured near
his plantation. When he heard OF this threat he
proceeded straight way 10 tue forbidden plaee-in
answer to his inquiries, slave informed him that his
master then at dinner, bus would him in
short time. He seated himself and waited until the
planter entered the room. With calm and dGnItlei
manner he was addressed thus Il understand thou
has: threatened blow the brains of Elias Hicks,
f he comes upon thy plantation? | am Elias Hicks.
The virginizn acknowledged that he made such
threat and be considered it perfectly justfable DO
such deed, when a came TO preach rebellion TO
his slaves. Il came preach the Gospel which incul
forgiveness OF injuries upon slaves we'll
upon other Tell If thou canst, how this
Gospel can be truly preached without showing the
slaves that they njured-aud thus make
of thy sentiments feel If they encouraged in
rebellion"
This led TO a more extended argument, in friendly
spirit. At parting the STAKEHOLDER shook hands with
the preacher, and invited him again. His
visits we're renewed and six months after, the Vir
ginian emancipated all Of his slaves.
When travelling in the free States, he earnestly
called upon his hearers abstain from slave produce
and thus in wash their own hands from par
tcipaton in a system Of abomnabe wichedness aud
cruelty. His zeal on this subject annoyed some Of
his brethren, but they could not make him amensble
70 discipline for il for these views in accord
with the esrie.: and strongest testimonies of
the Society OF Friends, it would have been
dscreditable TO acknowledge such a ground of of
fence.
But the dissatisfaction showed itself in dis
position to find fault with him. Charges were
brought against his doctrines. And he was accused
Of denying the authenticity of Scripture and the divin
~ Of Christ.
