Reduction of Taxes.

The commissioner of internal rev.
enue makes the following sensible
remarks touching the reduction of
the number of taxable articles, and
reduction of taxes:
Presenting that the necessities of
the treasury will allow the gradual
reduction of taxes, 1 would express
my belief that in no other way can
the same measure of relief be grant
ed both to the public and to revenue
officers, as in the reduction of the
number of taxable articles. The ad
yalorem tax of five per cent. upon
manufactures "not otherwise pro-
vided for" added to the tax upon
those specially named in various
-parts Of the law, is becoming a source
Of irritation and oppression. Taxa
ton is the rule, bat as early as prac-
ticable, should be made the excep-
ton. The sources Of revenue, which
ought to be few, may be counted By
hundreds. Production should be
encouraged, as it is the foundation
of individual and national wealth.
Whatever constitutes an element in
the manufacture Of another and a
taxable article should itself be exempt
from tax. 1t is the ultimate product
alone which should be assessed, and
then only from necessity. 1t is wiser,
too, to levy a large tax upon few ar
ticles than a small tax upon every
thing. 1t is less expensive and annoy
ing. Experience is rapidly teaching
this lesson which we might haye
learned from older nations. England
aud France, alike, derive almost theii
entire excise tax from four or five
specified articles. 1t may not be
practicable for us Immediately to Sc
cure from so few sources the large
sum which we now require through
indirect taxation, but additions o.
such articles as congress shall deter
| mine should be made to the list o
those exempted, as rapidly As the
amount to be derived from such tax.
alton can be safely reduced.

its object to be TO insure the conviction OF

Tic Mission To lIexico.

The mission of Gen. Sherman and
Minister Campbell to Mexico has ter
minated for the present, in the re-
turn of the ''envoys" to the Unite l
States. As to the results, no report
has yet been made, at least for the
public eye; but correspondent of
the New Orleans Times. who had an
interview with Mr.. Campbell, reports
as follows
Though not accomplishing all that
was expected, the mission was by no
means a failure. In the first place,
they avoided all appearance of COM
mullicating with the imperialist au-
thorities, by not landing at Vera
Cruz, and sought out the Republican
authorities under Juarez, whom they
founu at Tampico and again at Mat
amoras. The result of their confer
ence is definite, and joint plan OF
action has been determined upon be-
tween the United States and the Re-
public of Mexico. On the withdraw
al of the French troops, Juarez will
transfer his seat of Government to a
point nameless at present, and which
Gen. Sherman. as a military man,
considered well chosen. Gen. Sher-
man also said: "Their entire plans
have been laid before me, and [ con-
slider them, upon the whole, judicious
s<i prudent" The correspondent
further says that he has strong rea-
for believing that, in. case any
mt Of Imperial power remains
departure of the French
troops will be march
