CIVILIZATION IN EaYpT.-Egypt II appears, Is

with the taxes they are to have nothing to do.

L
Our Commercial Marine-EGecss Of Unwise
Legislation.
The facts disclosed In Commissioner Wells
report in regard to the decrease of registered
tonnage Of American vessels engaged in foreign
trade are of very discouraging character. He
shows that in the course of five years the diff
ference between the old and new measurements
indicates falling off of over fifty per cent, and
that this is to be accounted for not by the de-
struction Of property caused by confederate pri-
vateers, but by the increased cost construction
and other burdens. He states that the cost of
vessels built in our ports and in those of Cam
ada is as one hundred dollars to forty dollars
per ton, the effect Of which is, of course, to
drive the trade to the British provinces.
This is condition Of things that must not be
permitted to continue. Whatever the causes
may be that contribute to produce it, they
should be at once removed. If we abandon
our position as leading maritime Power we
may as well abandon everything else. The
great field of our struggles henceforth will be
the ocean. The conflict through which we have
just passed has put an end forever to any dan
ger that might assail us by land. II Is on the
sea that the permanenoe'o the position which
we have won as frat class Power will have to
be maintained. Every encouragement, there
fore, that can be given, to our shipbuilding
interests should be accorded them, even
at the risk of promoting iealonsies- This,
unfortunately, has not beenthe policy observed
by Congress. Its withdrawal Of the mail SUBJ
sidy from The Collins line, and its heavy taxa
ton Of the materials used, in sInpbuilding
have contributed greatly to ,dhpress them. The
consequence has been that one after the other
our American lines of steamers trading to
European ports have been abantoned, until
the last of them have just beenssold- No sooner
was the fact known than all the foreign lines
put up their passenger rates between twenty
and thirty per cent, with, we presume; . pro-
portionate rise on freight Thus the whsie es
our carrying trade is rapidlSypsssing inxo the
hands OF foreigners and we are made to- pay
through the nose for the privilege Of using
their vessels.
We need not enlarge upsn the effect a such
legislation. Suffice ii 70 say that in,the event Of
our being dragged into foneigmwar u wonad
result in the vessels composing oaar navy bes1g
worn out, without our being lin, a, position to
replace them.

which will necessarily have to be removed by
the sovereign people in the election of our next
President.
How will parties stand in this conflict SUBJ
stantially as they stood in the late September,
October and November elections The Union
party Of the war, the party of Congress and Of
Southern reconstruction will carry the country.
No side issues in all the mighty North will be
permitted to shake the solid front Of the sove-
reign people. Congress and the war will still
be sustained by them, and the President elected
In 1863, cordially cooperating with Congress in
1869, will speedily brush away the old State
rights distractions Of the Supreme Court. Thus,
with the Court and the Executive in perfect har-
mony with Congress, the work Of reconstruction
will rapidly be made complete, consistent with
the new dispensation, and solid and enduring.
Accordingly let Congress SO shape its course as
to make the great issue for the next Presidency
a reconstruction of the Supreme Court, and any
respectable reconstruction ticket will sweep the
field. We are as well convinced of this as that
the great Union party of the war is fixed and
will stand infexible in its resolution to prove
to the world that its war for the Union has not
been q failure.

Mr.. wells .. tic T.ria.

The report OF Commissioner Wells on the
United States revenue, which we published
yesterday, implies poadble modification Of the
taxation Of the country, il Congress only acts
upon the suggestions contained therein. Its the
most lucid document we have yea had upon tbs
| question of revenue and taxation AID although
Mr.. Wells is evidently personally disposed
towards high tariff, yet he acceptsit merely
as Incidental to the production Of a necessary
revenue. The report in general favors re-
duction Of taxation, which Is just what the
people require. We have too many taxes, and
they are levied at too heavy q rate and too
great cost to the government. II the reguIa-
ton of the tariff should incidentally accrue to-
the benefit Of sny particular branch Of indus
try there can be no objection; but q tariff inn
posed for this purpose alene il most unpopular.
We must have our taxation arrsuged upon q
general plan with a,view to- obtaining sufficient
revenue for the government expenses, and for
no ether object There has always bosn con-
fict between the idess Of tariff far prOtec-
ton and tariff foA revenue, and it n now
pretty we'll understood that the latteFis the
only legitimate method which cam be toFerated.
Manufacturers of certain articles claim specific
privileges, which they are continually advauac-
ing in the lobby but they are only like Wall
street brokers' who Corner some particular
stock and then sell out TO theirown advantages.
The difference between the maBufactusers ami
the stock brokers is that the former expect Com
gress to do the work for them which tho stock
brokers do for themselves. s
In the general modification OF the revenue
laws which Mr.. Wells recommends we do not
observe any suggestion about the Income tax,
the most odious and unpopular feature of the
existing law. There is, perhaps, no 1ssthod re-
sorted to to increase the revenue which is moro
exposed to fraud and corruption than this
laore difficult and expensive at the same time,
aad hence less profitable to the government
The mode of collecting it is surrounded with
perpexities, both tor the taxpayers and the
officials; it presses severely upon men Of
moderate means, and is almost invariably in
terrreted in favor Of the rich and againss the
poor These are sufficient reasons why tbs In
come tax should receive due consideration in
the action OF Congress upon the revenue laws,
and we trust that the oversight Of Mr.. Wells in
this matter will not be Initiated by that body.
There would be no more. popular measure
than an equalization, at. least, if not total
abolition Of the income tax. We hope at any
rate that Congress will giye us such tax law
a. will be commensurate with the necessities |
Of the government without any reference to
siass or sectional interests.
