Secretary Boutwell,, this year, at least, it
will be seen, stands opposed to any system
of reduced taxation. He tells the country
that it is highly prosperous while about
ten of every twelve men in businessasay
just the opposite. Men engagedSin ship
ping, foreign and domestic, In trade, in
manufactures, in farming, and in general
~produetion, assert that business is alarm-
ing4y dull. Fhe government, in its ca
pac5ty to collect in taXes oVerfour hundred
millions C$41fS255, 000tAe past year, asserts
the1opposite, and in4lA only shows how
much it is estfanged0pm the people and
thsf best Interests lust so, the very
everybody because his Incomes Ere large,
andhe and his own A6usehold are able to
faFssumptuoHsly. The surgeon findsit an
easYsthing to4raw blood, even when the
body can1ilL affordEtD spare it: 50 the
Secretary thinks he . act the, partsof .
leeeh withan0epublfesharm, and that the
fact That the blood heaQraws in the form of
taxes contributes over S1O0,000,000 a year
in the reduction of the public debt, all win
be well. Under observation-disclosures is he
willing that the 1edRetion of the prin-
cipa1 shall be less than fifty millions a
year, whiehEhe estimates will be the
amount in3611-72. With allthis balance,
however, hei IS earefalto say that he wants
more money to run hizeown machine with,
megesmOneyf or collecting the reyeaue
($Ai200, 0~0o,at1east $year) more moneyfor
WITH so many ananeialNwants for the ma

is n0tgstrange that the Secretary opposes
any reduction Of taxes for the session of

The Presiaentyin his Message, takes tdi!!
rect issue with the Secretary in regardNto
appointments to office. While the Score
tary represents office-seeking as a matter
of very small moment the President saws |:
PThere is no ddty which so much en-
Darasses the Executive and heads of DeS
paFtments as that of appointments = nor is
there any such arduous and thankless labor
imposed on Senators and Representatives
as that OF finding places for constituents.

Free Streets.

To the Editor of the Press:
was glad to see a paragraph in late issue
of TIE PRESS on clean streets. The following
VIII ch cut from the Saco Independent, sug-
gests another important matter. The editor,
after speaking of other street nuisances, says
ave refer to the nusances in the shape of
street signs, awnings and shades which over
hang the sidewalks, and the exposing of goods
for sale on the sidewalks. Now we do not
wish to ipjure our good friends, the merchants,
but on the contrary to help them, and we con-
tend that this blocking mp. Of tia sidewalks in
front of their places of business is no help to
them but positive injury. It's only benefit OF
course is as an advertisement. But if one
trader hangs out his goods to flap in people
faces so will another; if one puts out his ploughs
and harrOws, or another his tables of fruit and
flowers, or his barrels of vegetables for passers
to break their shins against SO may another OF
another. and thus no advantage is gained over
competitors in the same business.
But still further they have no right to do it.
They hire or own their places of business, and
to those they should be confined. The street
belongs TO the public, and they cannot hire or
buy it. Cgjus est So.am, ejas est usQue dd c6ylun
is an old maxim of common law in full force
now as when uttered. Let the proper steps be
taken to give the public full possession of their
rights in the Streets

June has been APPLY styled the most beauti.
full month of all the year. The sunlight has a
new glory, and the sky, after the rain, a more
perfect blue; it seems lifted further from the
earth and as if you could look a greater dis
lance into its deep purity. During this month
the flowers attain their greatest perfection
offering the incense of their fragrance to their
life given by the sun; they have all the delca-
cy of the earlier and more fragile blossoms Of
spring, and the beautiful coloring of the gaudy
flowers of summer.
Death, with the preserving helper, time, gath
cred his great harvest just before the spring
flowers came. Now the invalid, who has fell
so severely the rude blasts OF winter, takes
courage and new lease of lite for asothel
year. All that lives feels the exal taton of this
fresh life. June is the month of hope and
promise; promise in all the fields and hope Of
harvest to the farmer. The smiles of nature
calls out the best feelings of man, cofrects i'll
temper and turns repinings into thansgivings.
Who ever heard of i'll temper on q glorious
June morning? We have got rid of our cruder
humors, our taste is more ethereal, and you
feel as ii man looked nobler and woman more
lovely. The soul is animated with hope and
happiness, and the better thoughts shine
through the face.
