"A Tax-Payer' writes us as follows:
You say that We must have taxes which rest
upon wealth and income, aud are paid according to
ability p '''r'''7 - ~
"w you have the kindness to point out what species
OF tax this deslderatumi had always supposed
that taxes OF every kind reimbursed 10 those on
whom they levied through the enhancement of price
OF the conmodIte, produced services rendered. cap
ita loaned"
Such being our correspondents view, ho
must of course be indifferent as to how much
his business or product is taxed, since he does
not pay the tax but charges it all over to his
customers. but such is not 9Y experience,
We paid for years three per cent. on the
money we received for Advertising, and did
not charge it over to our customers; on the
contrary, we paid il ourselyes-paid it willingly
and protested against its repeal. Still, we did
not pretend TO enjoy nor thrive upon it.
Our correspondent further inquiries:
own not every quit those occupations which do
not reimburse the cost OF production and profit sufi
Client maintain the producers in tho condition OF
life as other industries requiring the capital, intel
gence and effort Aud tax be levied any class
In n which shall set aside this general law g.
AnSWer.-This quitting lifelong occupation
and taking up a new one is much more easily
said than done. We, for example, il compelled
to give up our present business, could not sell
all the property we have embarked in it for
one-fourth of its cost--might not (at time
when our trade was depressed) be able to sell
it at all. If tax of five per cent. on all our
receipts were laid on us, we should probably
still hold on, and try to live, though every
cent of that tax came out of our pockets and
brought nothing in.
We believe this sufficiently answers our
friends inquiries.
New-York tribune., 1868-05-27

we find it. We believe that money was used to
procure this acquittal; that money did procure.
il; that President JohnsOn's release was pur-
chased by men who have been permitted to
rob the Government. As to who received the
money, we cannot say. We know the men who
voted for acquittal-there our knowledge ends.
Some of these Senators we believe TO be above
the temptation of money. We wish we could
say as much of others. They must, however,
make their own defense and atOnement. We
turn from the subject with sadness. AT the
same time we are little curious to see what
the newspapers who have been in a fine frenzy
of anger with THE TTIBUYE, and of admiration
for the "Roman" virtue of Mr.. Ross, for in
stance, will have to say in reference to this
last disclosure.
New-York tribune., 1868-05-27

Perhaps the leading and characteristic fea-
ture of the Democratic National Convention to
be held in New York on the fourth day Of
July next will be the procession of five hun
dred of the more intimate and select friends Of
Mr.. George II. Pcndleton, headed by the giant
McCoole and the athletic COburn, or which
ever of them shall win the belt at the forth
coming match for the championship. The pro-
cessiOn will march up Broadway to the new Tam
many Hail. led 10y McCOOle and COburn, under
the grandest and most expansive piece OF bunt-
ing ever manufactured, the magnitude OF when
is intended to represent Mr.. Pendleton's policy
of greenback expansion None but able-bOdled,
intelligent men, grading equal to what are
cassed by the police as eight hundred dollar
men, fit and ready for service, will be allowed
to walk i'm the procession. AS The Cincinnati
Commercial estimates that the five hundred
braves will not only have five hundred up
right, manly forms, and five hundred intel
lectual brows, but thousand clear bright
"eyes," it will be perceived that men who
have lost an eye in the Democratic cause, or
whose "peepers" are otherwise bnnged up or
erased, are not expected to join in the grand
march. But there will be no exception to or
exclusion Of such as may have had their orig
inal "smellersr mauled or obliterated, or who
have submitted to fetch in the bread trap"
or have had their mugs accidentally spoiled in
chancery. There can be no doubt that such a
delegation coming as an escort to the model
gentleman of the Democratic party would
carry with it powerful weight, if not great
many of them, into the Convention. The mus
cular Conservatism Of the East must be wide
awake and organize promptly if it would turn
out force capable of stenlming such tide
of Western valor and sinew. Where is Capt.
Rvnders and the Empire Clubg
