ever, exemptfrom tax, in case where
tax has not been paid for the raw
material. Advertisements are to- be
relieved from tax, and many manu-
factures which are now, taxed 2 per
cent. are to be free from tax. ~
Among these are all Clues and var
nishes, and all wagons, drays and
trucks costing less than 81, used for
freighting purposes. Butter and
cheese are TO be taxed from a tax sec
tion added, to avoid duplication of
tax; so when there is a tax ON raw
material there shall not be another
on the manufactured article in its va
rious forms. The tax is to be either
on the raw or manufactured article.
A large number of articles are to be
exempt from tax, because the ex-
petises of collection is not equivalent
to the receipts .therefro1n.. .ot 6Bh0iIr
The tax is to be removed from
match boxes, but a stamp is to be
attached for matches, boxes, or other
packages or bottles; also exempted
where their contents aretaxed.I The
committee propose. in addition to, dry.
casks and barrels, to exempt all other
casks, barrels, brother co0perage,, in
Guiding oil, liquor, meat, and fish bar
rels and casks. The tax remains the
same on liquors or distilled spirits,
but the license for distillingi isisin-
creased from one dollar to five doll
lars. The provisions relating to dis,
tillation from grape, applee and peach
remain unchanged, but brandy made
from grapes is to be 80 cents a gallon.
The income tax is to be on amounts
in excess Of 81 900, and at uniform
rate of 5 per cent. The rent, taxes,
insurance, and repairs of all kinds are
to be taken out on income, so in effect
the income is to be exempt to an aver
age amount of 81 800. In addition,
there is new provision for the col
lection of tax on spirits of an iron
character, where the present law is a
fine or Imprisonment, the bill visits
both on the convicted offenders, and
where it says the Imprisonment shall
not exceed two or three years, the bill
provides the Imprisonment shall not
be less than two or three years, nor
more than four. ac FeRonali ayi

prevent fraud, such as the following,

NOT TO BE TRUSTED.

Let it be remembered that Judge Shars-
woods notorious decision against the ma
tional currency, was an extraiudieial one:
1t was not involved in the case, but 10 his
partisan hatred and malice he went beyond
his authority as Judge, and endeayored to
stab, IN the hour of its peril, the govern
ment that fed aud kept him safe, BY cloak
ing with the judicial ermine an extra judi
cial opinion, which, if it had been made the
law. would have bankrupted the country and
destroyed the Union beyond the hope of
redemption. SharsWood holds the same
opinion to day; and the man who could
abuse his judicial position to promulgate
such an opinion, would again abuse, ifelect-
ed to the Supreme Bench, his official posi-
ton to enforce that opinion, if it were in his
power, and thereby make utterly worthless
every dollar Of currency and every govern
ment bond ever issued by the United States
No man who has greenback dollar in his
pocket, OF who owns a government bond on
which be now regularly draws his 5, 8 or
per cent. interest can with safety vote for
Geo. Sharswood. Men who have once
shown themselves partizaus on the judicial
bench should never be trusted with such
authority again. Sharswood has been tried
and found wanting Let him not again
have the opportunity Of using a judicial po-
sition to further partizan measures or strike
blow at the national life.

The INTEGRITY Of the JUDICIARY.


The checks and balances Of our Govern
ment are adjusted with nice discrimination.
So thoroughly aud web does the machinery
work that even il one Of the three great
divisions of governmental power becomes
excentric, or to certain extent untrue, the
government BY reason Of vigilance and pa
triotisn in the other branches still survives.
Yet. more than anywhere else, the danger
to our national perpetuity lies in the Judi
ciary, if for any reason it becomes false to
the great underlying principles Of liberty
and patriotism.
Look how the slave power surrounded
the Supreme Court Of the United States
with an atmosphere morally vitiated and
corrupt, until that august tribunal OF
learned and able men departed entirely from
the principles of the founders of the gov
ernment and the Constitution, and decided
that black men had no rights which white
men we're bound bF law 70 regard, and that
Congress and the President we're bound to
protect and foster slavery in the Territories.
Also how the Supreme Court Of Pennsyl-
vania came near wreckiDg the ship Of state,
during the late fearful storm Of treason and
disloyalty, By deciding against the Consti-
tutiouality Of the draft The election Of
Judge Agnew in 1864 was of as much value
to the Government in putting down the re-
bellion as the victory at Gettysburg And
vet after all this the people are called upon
to vote for Judge Sbarswood, whose entire
sympathies have been with the Shareholder 5
party from his earliest manhood, and who
did all he could during the rebellion TO en-
barrass the government, By travelling out Of
the record in the case Of Borie VS.. Trott to
decide that the government had no right to
issue paper money to support the armies
and carry on the war. Can any soldier, or
any lover Of his country, or any one else
except a copperhead, or Southern Sympa-
thiser, vote for such man

REBEL SUFFRAGE rs. NEGRO SUFFRAGE,
Kentucky and Tennessee, in their late
elections. lying as they do along side each
other, present a striking contrast Ken
lucky, with all her rebels enfranchised and all
her negroes disfranchised, elects an openly
defiant rebel Governor over both Union and
Conservative candidates combined, BY a
majority of over 10000. Tennessee, with
about 10000 Of her worst rebels disfran-
chised and the freedmen enfranchised, re-
elects Gov. Brownlow by As, 900 majority, who
though denounced by copperheads as every
thing that is vile, cruel and blood-thirsty,
at once pronounces for the enfranchisement
Of all, and impartial suffrage; thus giving
even to those rebels, who, during the war,
sought his life with the relentless cruelty Of
bloodhounds, and drove him from his home
and State, all the rights and privileges Of
the most favored citizens. While such a
generous policy is advocated by the Tcnnes-
see Radicals. no sign ofrelenting, no liberal
idea, no evidence Of generosity or gratitude
has characterized Kentucky rebels; their
rule il the old aristocratic, selfish Tyranny
that has always marked rebel communities.
Let the nation be thankful that we have
but one Kentucky, while Tennessee is but
one of number that have learned the les
sons of wisdom in the school of dear expe-
rience.

the REMOVAL OF MIR. STANTON.
From the PAn'a Pre-. of August is.

From the Phil'a Pres Of August Is.
The long expected order suspending Sec
retary Stanton was issued this morning, and
General Grant was assigned to the charge Of
the War Office qd interim, with instructions
to enter at once upon the discharge Of the
duties of Acting Secretary Of War. The
President bat yesterday announced that the
suspension would not take place until Tues
day. and consequently the PRONUNCIATION of
the order to day created no little surprise.
Immediately upon receiving the order from
the President, General Grant proceeded to
the War Department and informed Mr..
Stanton that he was ready to relieve him.
Mr.. Stanton without hesitation retired from
his Office, and General Grant assumed con-
troll. Many of the subordinate officers Of
the department were not aware of the change
that had taken place until after the fact was
made public in the evening papers, while
others supposed taat Mr.. Stanton had at
last offered his resignation, which supposi-
tion gained ground from the fact that Mr..
Stanton sent to the President letter of re-
monstrance, the contents Of which, not be-
ing known, were presumed to be formal
resignation. 1t is generally assumed that
General Grants tenure Of Office viii be
short, as it is well known that the President
offered the portfolio Of the War Depart
ment to General James b. Steedman, of
Ohio, more than eighteen months ago, and
that he telegraphed to New Orleans, request
ing that officer to proceed to Washington i'm
mediately General Steedman had received
leave of absence from his Office Of internal
revenue collector, but was detained in New
Orleans BY illness il his family, and the
President, in the urgency Of the eircum-
stances as viewed from his stand point, was
compelled TO telegraph to him in person.
1t is therefore assumed that General Steed-
man will receive the appointment immedi-
ately on his arrival here. which will occur in
very few days The following is a rerJdt-
in copy Of the correspondence petween the
President and Secretary of War and Gen
eral Grant to-day:

A New southern RebelI,on.

WASHINGTON, August 12-It has been
stated here on very good authority that oue
of the reasons which aetuated Mr.. Stanton
when he refused to resign at the President 5
request, is that he has received information
Of a scheme which it Is said Is on foot for
arming military organizations IN the late in
surrectionary States, whose ultimate object
Is another assault upon the government, aud
he has determined TO remain at his post TO
thwart their designs. Its further said that
one Of the causes Of the late rupture be-
was the refusal Of Secretary Stanton to as
sign to militia company Of Maryland, corr
posed mainly Of returned rebel officers
and soldiers, a battery Of light guns for
which they had applied. The President Is
said to have directed him to furnish the
battery, bur that Mr. Stanton declined, and
still refuses TO do so.
