Tho amount of taxation has gone on in
ercasing under the reign of the distructiyes,
until it has reacieda friShtful sum total, and
bears with terrible weight on the producing
and laboring classes. The rich are no longer
taxed fairly ont c properly they possess, but
are exempted, and their burden shifted upon
the POOR men.

Belfast journal
Copperhcad democracy talking about in-
creasing taxation ! That party brought the
late terrible war upon the country aud piled
the present crushing debt upon us. and upon
every principle of justice, it oushtto he COM
pellcd pay the whole expense.
1t is false TO say that the rich are not
taxed fairly. Congress in imposing taxes
ms. im every instance. Disseminated in
favor of the poor and against the rich
Every thIng that the poor man has or uses
is taxed as lightly as possible. while the
rich have no fayors shown them. Who
pays the income taxes Who pays taxes
upon the vast property in cities, and the
immense property invested in mauufactur-
ing. in shipping. and all the other great
branches industry Do the poor men pay
them ? But o. it is the bonds that are eN-
empt from taxation says the Journal. But
why were they exempt from Taxation 1t
was because copperhead capitalists cried
them down. and advised the people not to
invest in them declaring the country was
going to ruin. and that they would be
wholly vaueless. The government was
compelled to offer every inducement to the
people to take them. What copperhead
democracy now wan is. to have these
bonds repudated Aud the Journal takes
its text, weekly. from Brick PomLroy's
Democrat, which goes openly for repudi-
ation.- Belfast age.
