Lager beer triumphs in Massachusetts.
A vast quantity seized by the constaoles

THE tremendous gales which visited
the northwest last week seem to have
been omnipoten. The Atlantic coast of
the United States was visited, and now
tho ocean cable brings the news that Eu.
rope Was affected by tremendous gales at
the same time. All around the British
coast there were unusual storms, and
shipwrecks are reported Us numerous -
In mid.ocean, at least one ship WAS ov-
ervhelmsd; and that there may have
been others is probable, but it cannot be
known until the lapse of sufficient time
tor them to be missed or heard from.
The prevalesce Of earthquakes, of I'M
usually severe storms, and Of other dis
tuYbances, show that our atmosphere and
electrical currsnts are being affected by
some new and unknown Influences. -
Whether they proceed from she sun, or
the magnetic rays which sha. luminary is
pushing rapidly toward the earth, is some
thing whish does not seem ~ be, rs yet,

The Income Tax.

The tax Of per cent on all incomes
in excess OF 81 900 pei year, will expire
by Limitation next year unless Congress
shall provide for its continuance at the
comming session. --- While we cam OF
agree with many that to abolish the ia
come tax entirely would be wise, we
aorec with the Chicago Mmes(O that a
modification of the law is demanded, -
The Times says:
Were it reduced one.half, and men with
incomes of but two thousand dollars year
exempted from it altogether, and honest and
efficient means taken for its collection, the
revenue from this source would be greatly
increased As the law now stands, men
with small incomes suffer most from its OPP
Grafton. They cannot afford TO run the risk
of incurrng the penalties provided for ma
king wrong returns. Were all of the facts
connected with the returns and collections
of the iucome tax known, they would doubt
less, show that no class OF men IN the coun'
try pay so much in proportion to their
means rs those whose sole income is deriy'
ed from salaries Men who have to prac.
tice a rigid economy in order 10 live re-
spectably, are required to pay one-twcn-
tieth of all they earn to the Government
as an income tax, in addition to other fed.
raj taxes, and those Of state, county and
town
Whether reduction of one.half,-
making the tax q per cent, is not too
great we are disposed to question, but
the proposition to make $1,000 exempt
instead of 81 ,0O0, we can heartily endorse.
There are few persons whose incomes
are less than s. 600, but are so situated
that every body knows just what those
incomes are, and there is no possibility
of evading an honest return but when
incomes 20 beyond $1,000 there is little
means of knowing what they are, and the
parties thus situated can easily make
false returns without danger Of detection.
The case is the same rs other taxes the
poor man who owns nothing but his
house and lot, one COW and horse can
no. hide them; the assessor sees all at
ghnce, and knows just what they are
worth the rich mans goods are in all
shapes and p aces, notes, mortgages, mer'
chandiso, moneys which are not always in
sight the assessor has no means OF est.
mating the amount of his property, and
is therefore compelled to accept the state
ment Of the owner, who being directly
interested cannot always be relied upon
as competent to Judge, Thus the poor
mans tax is always propor'ionately heav
list, and an exemption of another thous>
and dollars of income, we believe is but

The Ecumenical Council to assembl

The Ecumenical Council TO assemb Q
at Rome, in December next at the call of
the Pope, is an event of no common in
terest in the Roman Catholic Church. -
The direct line of succession which con
meets this council so imediately with the
similar councils of the middle and early
centuries, which hold such important
places in history, naturally attracts the
especial interest of the whole relig>
ious world, Protestants and Greeks, as
we'll as Romans. When the Christian
churches were oil in one communion,
and all ministers or bishops were sum-
moned to sit in these councils, the sessions
were often prolonged for months and
even years with debates upon questions
of doctrine. There arc indications that
the coming council may prove the oppor-
tunity for fierce debates between the
opposing tendances toward progress on
one hand, and eternal fxedness on the
other, which may materially affect the
future of the Roman Church. Still there
is q wisdom of management in the "floly
Fathers which may be successful in so
selecting and disposing the elements, that
there shall be no impIngng, no friction,
no disagreement and of course, no can
did discussion, but all result in servi
and unanimous affirmation of the dogmas
and schemes prearranged by the Pope
and his cardinals.

Nor CRsplrARLE The elect ioneering ar.
guments used by MIR. Bliss friends against
. Mr.. Baker, we're exceedingly discreditable.
They tried to max. capital out OF the fact
that Mr. Baker was Methodist preacher
and temperance man; just AS though that
disqualified him for the uut es OF legisla.
tor. In voting tor man, each man should
ask himself this question: Who is best hit
for the office for which he is nominated
J Not whether A. or b, il a Methodist or
or Prcshytrrial ora Catholic--uot whether
he isa German, Welshman, Norwegian, or a
Yankee Had it been known what was
being doue 10y Mr.. Bliss friends earlier in
the day, he would have been defeated by
n hundred votes.--Nationai Democrat
Either Bro Peck is ignorant of some
4 important iacts connected with the late
canvass Tor Member of Assembly in this
District, or the above is in very bad taste.
We had supposed there was no one
who took any interest IN the late election
but knew that the chief lever used by
Mr. Baker friends Was that he Was an
Engishman aud Methodist preacher,
and therefore was entitled to the suffrage
of all good Methodists and true Britons
We can find lNore than one man to whom
appeals in this s,'a'u were made, both
by Mr., Baker and his friends With re-
gard TO temperance, we are aware that
many votes were east against Mr. Bliss
by Good Tempars and others on account
of story circulated by Bakers friends
on electioa day, TO the effect that Demo-
Gratis we're throwing him of because il
elected he would favor prohIbtory Law
but the least foundation for the story
could not be found We agree with the
Democrat that qualifications and hone sly
should be the standard by which candi>
dates should be measured, ana not creed
or nationality, and think appeals to res
llgious or national prelulices highly dis,
creaitabis but where one party engages
in this kind of warfare, the other is less
censurab.e for using the same weapons
in deteare "What is sauce Tor the goose
is sauce Tor the gandet Had 1t been
known tat this sly of eleetOueering
was being made so effective ia Linden
and Miflin by Mr Baker aul his FRIENDS,
