INCOMES.

An interesting pamphlet, embodying some
curious facts in reference to the internal reye-
nue., has just been published, from which we
learn that out of the whole population of the
United States only 100000 persons paid tax
upon ineomes-in other words, that out o. the
thirty FIVE millions of our people, less than bali
million have incomes OF more than S6Uu
year Those who have less than that evidently
need it all to live on, and thus spend all they
earn. The great mass of the people, therefore,
are taxed only indirectly, through the duties of
the imposts imposed on the articles they con-
sumo; and if these are increased, their wages
must be increased also, else they cannot live
1t is stated in the same connection, that one of
the largest railroads in the country has adopted
the principle Of paying to its common laborers
the price of barrel of -four per week, fading
this to be more just and satisfactorily mode of
measuring the value of labor than the price of
paper money, as it is assumed that the price of
the necessaries of life are more likely to follow
the price of -four than the fluctuations of the
currency. This, to certain extent, may be a
very good test of the value of labor; but as the
price of -four must 0e higher or lower, accord
ing to the extent of the grain crops, and the
prices of otLer articles be regulated by the
amount of taxes put upon them through the
agency of tariffs and excise, the rise or fall in
the -four market cannot always secure CORES.
ponding rise or fall 10 other commodities. If
the crops shall be very abundant, bread
stuffs may decline below the comparative stan,

short and the supply limited, then prices will
be higher in proportion than the prices OF other
articles. The restoration of the whole country
to wanted prosperity by the encouragement of
production throughout ali its borders, by the
cutting off of every possible source of expendi-
ture so as to reduce taxation, and oy cutting off

needed-are the things that are imperative, for
the relief of all.-Balttnaore Sun.

GENTLE AND zHEBREw.

The Jews OF the present day, IN the exercise
Of their religious rites, keep on the tenor Of their
i way, and seldom engage IN controversy, either
doctrina or other, with those not of the house

attacked. An occasion of this exceptional kind
occurred ia Cincinnati on Saturday last, when
the Rabbi, /. NJ. Wise, preached sermon to \
crowded congregation 10 the Hebrew Temple,
corner of Plum and Eighth streets, in which he
reviewed the discourse preached atthe opening
ofthe General Assembly Of the Presbyterian

Church, Cincinnati, May 10th, by R. l. Stanton,
D. d., Moderator of the last General Assembly,
on the text: "For 1 determined not TO know
anything among you, save Jesus Christ and Him
cruciffed." Rev. Mr. Wise announced for his text
the last three verses of Micah ending thus

mercy to Abraham, which thou hast sworn unto
our fathers from the days of old."- g. e's

doctrine against which Martin Luther contended;
against which Professionalism had been struggling
