The POSTMASTER GENERAL in his re-
port urges the abolition Of the franking
privilege. He could have done no
wiser thing, and that if nothing more,
proves him well adapted to the position
which be fills. By ell means lop of
this useless appendage to our NJ C.'s
and unburden the mail ofthe vast guam
titles of free matter which cucumber its
successful working. If members must
have their postage paid, let a reason
able allowance be made them for that
purpose, that the rank abuses prscticed
under their hand may cease.

The Income Tax.


It will not surprise any one to hear that
a determined effort is to be made next win.
Ter to repeal the income tax. This tax
Yields over thirty millions Of dollars per an
nun. 1t is said by some to be the most
odious kind of tax, whilst others hold that
/. is the fairest of all. Unquestionably it Is
source Of much annoyance to many per-
cons, and especially to those who are best
able 10 pay it. bennett, of the New York
Herald, who has clear income Of about
three hundred thousand dollars, is one OF
the warmest advocates of the repeal of this
tax. The Times desires to see it modified !;
and this, we suppose, is what will be done.
Congress would hardly dare to do away en-
,lrely with this tax SO long NJ it makes every
poor man in the country pay heavy tax
upon salt, sugar, coffee, and tea. The
amount exempted from taxation will
probably be increased, and the per centum
of taxation upon the rest be reduced. Some
clearer provision will also doubtless be made
in regard TO the kind Of dwelling-houses to
he exempred-that is, rs to whether those
worth thousands of dollars per annum are
10 be exempted as well as those worth only
Il few hundred.

Mr.. Boutwell,.

We stated yesterday that Attorney-Gcn-
crai iioAE had come out in favor Of con-
traction of the currency. We are pleased
TO read in 4 Washington letter in the Balti-
more Gazette Of yesterday a positive state
nn"nt that Mr.. HoAR's views are utterly
"rcpudiated by boutwell,, who will pro-
badly be sustained by vast majority in
Congress" That is, Mr.. Boutwell, will
oppose any contraction Of the amount OF
the currency. 1t must be admitted by
every candid man that Mr.. boutwell, has
- FAR been highly successful as financial
secretary. His opposition to contraction is
another evidence that he is the "right man
III the right place" We so much dread the
disastrous results which would surely fol-
low such a measure that we feel greatly re-
licyed to learn the Secretary's views on the
subject,

Commodore VANDERBILT was placed upon
the witness stand in New York the other

good temper and sagacity. He wouldn't

crn Republicans are many of them opposed

Of the eastern Republicans are in favor OF
such a tariff. Upon the questions connected
with the currency, the banking system, &c,
the party is also divided. 1t is. indeed, re-
,narkable that the party has been kept to-
gether so long as it already has. With the
settlement of the negro question will disap-
pear the Republican party asa party. Thrust
Weld to the pressure Of uni;svorable clrcnm-

lis vitality longer. The Democratic party
also will disappear. Its name its odiou> to
many northern men, who like its principles
we'll enough, and who would Willingly act
with the men composing it if they would
"takc any other name but that"
Altogether, the prospect is that "the
CHASE movement" if it is intended to Sc
cure for the Chief Justice Democratic
nomination for the Presidency, will be an
entire failure.

A Prediction, and its Probable
Fulfllment.

On the eth Of October last we gave the
following reasons for not publishing the
opinion of the Supreme Court OF the United
States in the YERGER case
"THE DECISION IN THE lERGEE CASE
We have read the whole of the opinion OF
chief Justice Chase in the Icrgcr case. II
does nothing more than affirm the .i,lrisdic-
ton Of the Supreme Court 10 issue the writ
rravcd for--that Of hGbcGS corpus. When
Ycrgcr shall be brought before the court in
obedience to this writ, the case will come
M on lis merits; and then the reconstruct
ton acts maj be pronounced unconStitu-
tioNal-and then, again. they may not be.
There is absolutely nothing in the opinion
which either touches those acts or by inn
ulicatinn even refers to them. Before the
crsc thus comes up on lis merits Congress
7pnp fand If necessary 7r'lN ouSt the court Of
ITS i,,3sdci,on and leave Mr.. Yergcr in the
hands of his military murdererS.
