be removed. The tax on incomes is 80 be so
far modified as to raise the amount exempted
from 5000 to $1,000, with $500 additional al
lowed on rentals or homesteads. On all
amounts OF incomes above s 900 uniform
tax Of five per ceatum is To be levied.
But the most important provision Of the
bill is the leyying Of tax OF five cents per
pound on all cotton broughtto market
The Committee are jusihed in their con-
clusion that this will net an enormous re-
venue. at the same time prove less onerous
than almost any other tax'now levied. The
Committee are unit in these new features
of the bill, and, 80 far as the sentiments OF
leading Members have been eanvassed, their
adoption by Congress is deemed quite certain.
