: The Committee Of Ways and Means, it is
reported, propose to reduce the duty on i'm
ported sugars and nnolasses, and retain un-
changed those on salt, coal, and iron.
Why are not the sugar-p1anters entitled to
protection, as well AZ the aalt-makers
The duty On sugar md molAsses, moreover,
produces revenue to the government. II
does not exclude foreign sugars. The
duties On salt, pig iron, and coal, On the
contrary, exclude importation, produce
comparatively little revenue, and operate
as direct tar Of, perhaps, SEQ, ,0oo, ,ooo
year, paid by tho consumers Of the dones-

THE INCOME TAX,

The Commissioner of Iuternal Revenue
hiss provoked q discussion os to the time
when the income tax shall expire. The oct
OF July IL, 1866, aays that 81 The taxes On In
comes herein imposed shall be lepied on the
first day Of May, and be due and payable on
or before the 30th day Of June in each year,
uut1l and including the year 1870, and no
longer" The act Of March 2, 1867, 1e-enacts
the aboFe IN the SANS words, with the excep-
tion that March Is substituted for May, and
April for June.
The game act provides; "Aud the tax here
IN provided for sha1l be assessed, collected,
and paid upon the gains, profits, and IN
come for the year ending the 3lst day Of
December next preceding the time for levy
ing, collecting, and paying said tax"
These two provisions, upon their face, as-
sune TINT the tax must be collected from
the gains and profits Of the year ending
December 81 preceding the March and
April when said Tux Is levied and becomes
due and payable There is no difficulty 81
to the fact that the tar on tie gains and in-
comes Of 1869 will be levied in March, 1870,
and will be due and payable on the 3Oth Of
April, 1870 But there is question under
tha Other section, which says said taxes shall
be lavied on the first day Of March, end be
due End payable On the 30th Of April In
each yeaz, 81 until and including the year
1870, and no longer" The question is, Has
the Commissioner the right to collect ta,ea
On the incomes and gains Of 1870, when the
law says they shall bs levied upon the in
come Of the year ending December 81 pre-
csding March end April, 1870, and
no longer Some Of these taxes
are payable monthly, IS in the
case of government salaries, and the CON-
missioner insists that he hss right to col
leet them. 1t this juncture the Committee
OF Nays and Means Of the House Of Repre-
sentativcs report joint resolution reciting
that there ls difference Of opinion as to
the construction Of the Lar, aud declaring
that the meaning Of the law is that
"Au persors are liable 10 the tsJment Of the:r
proper ipcope tAK accxu!nR a-d to accrue for and
that the Afse11uens ADO collection OF xn5 4uch
tsx In tha lear 1870, and remaining nnpId on the
Lat ohJ OF January, ISL may under the existing
Trny1Aob8 Of the law BE- made In the LAST men.
tlnrtd 3esr."
This is an extension Of the law for ono
year longer. The tax upon the incomes Of
the year 1870 siu be lsried in March, 1871,
and be due and rsyablo On April 80, 1871.
The House OF Representatives seem to have
passed this resolution without the slightest
question. The Philadelphia Ledger, Clsvs-
