Death Of 4. ID. Richardson.

A. ID. Richardson died on Thursday
morning, aged only 81 years. lie lived
about six days after receiving the fatal
shot. and literally starved 10 death. For
several of the last hours Of his life he was
Only partially conscious. The last per-
son he recognized was his wife. His Ia
test word, TO her were, "My darling,
am going to take you into infinite space
and glory The last word he artlcul'ted
WAS "Colfax." Mr.. Richardson had a
hearty regard for the NicePresident, and
always spoke of him in the warmest terms.
The day before he died, he cordially re-
membered his mother, to whom he was
most atlectionately attached. 10 friend
he said he was not afraid to die. Inc
TrHa,,c has the following touching obltu-
a,v notice of their fellow correspondent :
OF all names which have been written
at the mead of this sad memorial column,
not one las more surprised and stunned
with Il sense of sudden loss, not one has
been read by sad,ltr eyes, not one has
smitten so many loving hearts, as ms
which to-day gives excuse TO these briei
| lines. Two things about the man were
20 remarkable that one might almost say
/ they ,reye the man-his vitality and his
/ tricndlincss.
| No Liam was ever more alive than lie.
| 1t was mt only in that strong principle
OF life which had carried him safe through
peril after peril that would have Killed
ANY other man, and which kept the calm
pulse beating for days after his physicians
had given up all hope OF saving HIM 1t
was not only III that JOY OF cxI,tancc
which seemed always TO possess him 1t
was in his wonderful buoyancy and
brightness and confidence in time and III
circumstance, III his tirces-neSs, his incas
puhiiitv of di-couragemout, his endless
and delighted Labor over whatever work
he had in hand, i'll his energetic belief
that he could not only conquer the world
tor himself, hut for everybody he knew,
if everybody would but accept his way

rent expenses largely. thus, after funding,
i.siifying a greater reduction of taxation
than would now be eXpclient, | suggest
the postponemeHt of this question until
the next meeting of Congress. 1t may
be advisable to modify the taxation and

also suggest the renewal OF the tax
on incomes, but at a reduced rate, say
at ) per cent, and this tax to expire III
three years. With the funding OF the

safe in saying the taxes and the revenue
from imports may he reduced safely from
sixty to eighty millions per annum AZ
once, and may be i'll further reduced
from year to year: as the resources O.
the country are developed The report
of the secretary Of the treasury shows the
receipts of the government for the fiscal
wear ending June -, 1868, to be $40
943, -, and the expenditures, lnciud-
ing interest on bonds. etc, 70 he So l.
1870, Jy1, The estimates for the cneu-
mo year are more favorable to The GOV
ernmcnt and Will no doubt show much
largrr decrease OF the public debt. The
receipts in the treasury beyond the eX-
p,nditures have exceeded The amount
necessary to place 10 the credit Of tie
sinking fund IL provided by law. To
lock up the surplus in the treasury and
withhold it from circulation would lead
! to such a contraction of the currency as
to cripple that and scriouo y affect the
prosperity Of the country. nder these
circumstances the secretary OF the treas
ury aud myself heartily comcurred in tht
