Major General Fitzpatrick.


Gen. JUDsON FITZPATRICK is to ad-
dress the Grand Demonstration in
this city on next Saturday. His
speech promises to be one of the most
eloquent of the campaign. His gal
liant services as Commander of the
Cavalry Corps of the Army of the
Potomac, entitle him to the gratitude
of the loyal people of the North, and
for these would be greeted with an
overwhelming audience; but added
to this, the fact that he is one of the
most vigorous and eloquent orators in
the country, will draw together to
hear him one of the largest crowds
ever assembled in this city.
He spoke at Dayton on Monday last
and his speech is most highly spoken
Of The Cincinnati Commercial speak
ing of the meeting says:
General Fitzpatrick appeared on the
stand when Major Smith concluded
and he was greeted with a storm Of
cneeTs. His very appearance seemed
70 ,eleetrify the large crowd, who
gathered closer to the stand as his
'isFion voice arose above the din.

hour and a half, with force and
eloquence we have never beard aT

An "Hones.,, Councilman.

Properly enough; the Courier rush
es to the defense of Councilman
e17r JONES. 1t says our attack upon him
was scurrilous There was no sour
rility whatever In it. We called him
to an account for the assertion that
petition presented to the body of
which he is a member-which was
written in respectful language-was an
insult. MIR. JONES evidently has had
~@5- his head turned by being clothed in a
little brief authority. 1t is an insult
to MIN for tax payers to petition the
.r7a- Council to take steps to prevent fraud.
Mr., JONES, then, considers 1t to be
his sworn duty to treat petitions as
insults 10 his dignity Very we'll. 1t
yars5a is to be hoped the citizens of the
Third Ward will remember this fact
at their next election.
Mr.. JONES, after being grossly in
.aie .s suited by having a petition to the
-aaea Council read in his hearing, Justly
feels indignant that he should be
AA selected from the rest of the Council
% and held up to the world as a man
o. : who would lend himself to the COM
mission of anything that an honest
and honorable man would feel
ashamed Of" Mr.. JONES was an ac-
tive member of the Democratic party
last Spring. He was one of the wire
managers He was familiar with the
raseality by which the Democratic
ticket was successful He was ac-
70 quainted with the election frauds
which we have already exposed, and
the perjuries that were perpetrated.
Surely such an honorable and honest
man ought to feel insulted when his
constituents present a petition asking
that steps be taken to prevent similar
frauds IN the futurel But, says the
Courier, Mr.. JONES was opposed to
Offering rewards for illegal voters, be-
4 cause he deemed it unnecessary" We
have no doubt Mr.. JONES regards the
Offering of rewards for the detection
4t Of illegal voting, not only as aimee
essary,'' but positively dangerous to
his party The developments before
our courts demonstrate this fact most
conclusively. Mr. JONES seems
to forget that honest men are
never troubled about rewards
al offered for the detection of rAs-
calls. 1t is only those who have
been guilty Of violating the laws that
rembe when they see a hand bill
headed One Hundred Dollars Re-
ward, and fear each bush an officer.
However we may dislike aud condemn
Mr.. JoNEs's politics, we will do him
the justice to say that, like his great
leader, he is always true to Ibis
friends" He remembers that their
voting, unlawful as it was, helped to
place him in his present position, and
he does not intend doing anything
that is in the least calculated to get
them into trouble.

are using three of your American Turbine
Water Wheels, which we have put in
our Mill within the last eighteen months
We consider them as being the best wheels
in use. We can grind cut forty barrels of
-four per day to each wheel with five foot head
and fall, which is four times the quantity We
could make with any ordinary wheel. As
for strength we have tested them thoroughly,
having had them stopped several times BY
never breaking them in the least. In conclu-
sion we will say that they fully fill the bill
as represented to US before purchasing.

rough surgery of the war, in the loss OF leg
at Gaines Mill, found himself urder the ne
cessity, q few weeks ago, of visiting Baltimore
to obtain the surgical services of Dr.. N. L..
Smith. AS the war had deprived the major
not only of limb, but Of his substance and
means of living, he took with him to Baltl-
more little save letter or two of introduction
and the certificate Of honorable service that
his manned person afforded. Blu: these were
enough for the warm-kearted Baltimoreans.
He had no need for money. Not only were all
his wants ministered to, but every attention
that hospitality, courtesy and sympathy could
suggest was bestowed, and the services OF the
most skilful surgeon in America we're rendered
gratuitously. Major Wall is now in Richmond
on his return home, not only relieved OF the
pain that his amputated limb had given him.
but possessing other valuable 1nementoes OF
the kindness and generosity o. newly made
friends in Baltimore. They have large hearts
and warm ones, those Baltimoresns."

FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY "a, 1868.
The Tax on Incomes.

Every dweller in our good old city has
the privilege of paying ta1ef to three cor
porations. He owes tribute 10 the United
States to the State of South Carolina, and
lastly to the City of Charleston.
The United States tax is FIVE per cent, on
all incomes over one thousand dollars
allowing deduction, however, for house
rent.
The State has laid tax of swo aud half
per cent upon ell gross incomes derived
from employments, faculties aid professions.
The City Tax bill for 1868, printed in
THE NEWS of Wednesday, levies tax OF
"three dollars on every hundred dollars OF
gross income, and all gross profits derived
from the pursuit of any faculty, profession
occupation or employment, or from the ex-
ercise of any office" etc., "payable month
w." This is unquestionably heavy tax,
but not quite 30 onerous all some people
seem to think, who urge that "three per
cent. payable monthly is equal to thirty-six
per cent. per annum." This is misappre-
hension of the terms of the ordinance. The
returns are to be made monthly, and the
tax to be paid on the amount returned. Or
course no one will return the same profits,
salary, or income of any description, more
than onoe; and he will thus only pay tax
once. e., three per cent, and not thirty
six per cent. In the case of capitalists,
whose chief revenue is frora stocks, bonds,
etc., the dividends or interest upon which
is only paid onoe or twice year, it would
seem to US impraotioable to make monthly
returns.
The State and city taxes are upon all
incomes, without any minimum limit. A
man with an income of one thousand dollars
thus pays twenty-five dollars to the State,
thirty dollars to the city, and nothing +. e.,
no income tax) to the United States. If
his income is two thousand dollars, he pays
fifty dollars to the State, sixty dollars to
the city, and (if Eve hundr ed dollars ia e1-
empted for house rent, and one thousano
dollars needful expenses Of living) twenty
five dollars on the remairing FIVE hundred
dollars to the United States. So that one
thousand dollars income pays tax OF fifty
Eve dollars, and two thouiand dollars pays
one hundred and thirty-fve dollars.
These are the direct taxes upon incomes.
We need not say that every merchant, pro-
fessional man, indeed every man, woman and
child, makes additional contribution to the
revenue, in the payment Of licenses, in the
purchase of stamps, in the additional price
placed upon every article of household con-
sumption, because of the onerous customs
duties, or the complex and e1orbitant In
ternal Revenue tax.
