Now if it had ever been asserted by us that
Mayor Hoffman has personal control OF all
the expenditures of our City, there wonld be
some sense in this parade as it is, we see none
Our Public Schools are managed by officers
chosen by our citizens; Radical Legislation"
cannot be responsible for their cost. Our Char
tiles and Corrections are in charge OF four
Commissioners, two Of whom are prominent
and unexceptionabe Democrats while the Others
were appointed by our late Democratic Con
troller, ousting those whom the the Republi-
cans had appointed. AS to the City Debt,
nearly every dime of it was contracted by our
Democratic rulers; but we agree that it must
be paid anyhow. The CrotOn Water manage
ment of our City is altogether the best and
most economical of any department OF her pub
lie service.
But we do not hold Mr. Hoffman responsible
for these items, while we do charge that scan
dalOus prodigality and protiigacy eminentS
pervades those departments which are directly
under the government of our Mayor, Aldermen
and Board of Supervisors.
Take the Street Commissioners Department
for example. Here Mr.. Geo. w. Mclean is the
nominal. Mr. VIM. NJ. Tweed the real head
who does not know that at least half the large
sum here expended Is squandered for party
and personal advantage9 Are not our Courts
prodigal to the last degree DO not our Markets
reek with corruption, so that for every dollar
that they return to the Treasury, at least ten

tumble-down rookeries-notoriously located
most inconveniently for their customers
kept here for political reasons alone We
positively assert that One Million Dollars might
be put into the Treasury by selling all our
present Markets and erecting two instead at
points on either river far nearer the great mass
of our people, while immense sanitary and
other advantages would result from the change
But the steaings about the City Hall and the
Democratic vote would both suffer by this re-
form; and so it is stubbonly resisted.
Understand that we do not hold Mayor Hoff-
man accountable for all the expenses OF our
City; but we do say that the rOttenest and
most prohlgate expenditures occur in those
identical departments which he and his satel-
lites control; and I've get very poor returns

The INCOME Tax.

The bill amendatory of the Internal
Revenue Law, which, having been
signed by the President, is now a-lsw,
makes some important changes IN re-
gard to the assessment and collection of
the Income Tax. The time of assess
ment is changed from May to the LIST
OF March-or for the present year, from
the date of the act-and the final day
of payment is changed from June to
the 30th of April. The amount of ex-
emption Is also changed from $500 to
$1,000, and the tax is made uniform
at Eve per cent.
The tax is to be assessed upon the
gains, profits, and income for the year
ending on the 3lst of December next
preceding the assessment, and applies
to all sources of income whatever,
whether from regular business or oc-
cupation u from special transactions.
The deductions allowed are the 1000
exemption, and also all National, State,
County snd Municipal taxes paid du-
ring the year, whether by owner, ten
ant, or mortgager losses actually sus-
tanned during the year from fires, ship
wreck, or incurred in trade /; debts as
certained to be worthless, but
excluding all estimated depreciation of
values and losses within the year on
sales of real estate purchased two years
previous to the year for which income
is estimated amount actually paid for
labor or interest by any person who
rents land or hires labor to cultivate
land, or who conducts any other bust
ness from which income is actually de-
rived; the amount paid foI rent of z
residence, and the amount for usual
ordinary repairs, but not money ex-
pended in new buildings, perma-
nent improvement or betterments
made to increase the value of property. |
Only one deduction of $1,000 shall be
made in a family composed of the pa
rents and minor children. Persons IN
the employ of the United States hav-
ing more than $1,000 salary, will have
the tax deducted when their salaries
are paid, except where the compensa-
ton is partly by fees, when the tax
will be collected in the usual manner.
Taxes unpaid after ten days notice,
and demand thereof by the Collector,
will be increased by the addition of
five per cent on the amount
of tax, and interest at the rate
of one per cent a month from the time
when the tax falls due.

Authorizing County Commissioners to sell
lands not exceeding $4,000 in value /;
prohibiting trespass by miners under
lands of others; prescribing a penalty for
the malicious injury of gas fixtures.
The Railroad bill was under discussion

The resolution authorizing the printing

HoUsE--The bill authorizing incorpo-
rated villages to aid in the construction OF

Mr.. Pistt called up the bill authorizing
Boards of Education to accept donations
of Schoolhouses from religious denomina.

State schools. A lively discussion ensued,
in which Messrs. Piatt Alexander, Beer

the bill, that it wa introduced to give
Catholic Schools participation in the use

postponed to March 14th.
The Railroad Commissioner bill was

HE GENITAL SYsTEM.-For the benefit
of many who do not yet fully under
stand the operation of the Genital Sys.
tenn, we give the following rule for
making calculations by this system !:
The standard weight of wheat per
bushel Is 60 bs.; CORE and rye. Sc lbs:
oats, % lbs; barley, 4S fbs. The price
per bushel being given, to find the
price per GENITAL multiply the price per
bushel by 100 and divide by the mum.
Der of pounds In 8 bushel. For instance:
AT l.50 per bushel for wheat, what is
the price per cental?-SL.50 multiplied
by 100 gives $4,000, divided by 60, the
number of pounds in a bushel, gives
$3.50, which is the price per GENITAL
Again: The price per GENITAL being
given, to find the price per bushel,
multiply the price per GENITAL by the
number of pounds in a bushel and
divide by 100. Example: At $3.50 per
Genital what is the;price per bushel of
60 pounds?-2,50 multiplied by 90,
gives $4,000 divided by 100 gives $50
the price per bushel. The rule will be
found correct in its application to
bushels of any weight. Our readers
Will save much time while the new sys-
tenn Is becoming familiarized. if they
will cut this article out and keep it
a handy place for a few days. The
above rule is so simple and easy that
people will soon become accustomed to
the new method. Already the market
reports of most of the cities are given
by h Genital system, and 1t will soon
be uniVersal.-Ceveland Leader.
