The Income Tax.

By adroit management the Senate re-
yersed its action ini the case OF the odi-a
Gus income Tax, though there is said to
be decided majority against it. But
many of these Senators probably are not
really against it-valuing the perqnisites
of the appointments under it too highly
and therefore uohtrived to be absent
when the vote was taken. Senator Cam
eron, of this state, left the Chamber just
before the vote.
Senator Sherman averred that 1T was
necessary that the Government should
have either the tax on the gross receipts
of railroads, &c, or the tax on private
Incomes-and Of course the Rail-
roads we're favored. There Is no neces
sity, however, as every weli.irformed
man knows, for retaining either tax. 1t
is not, however, the amount levied by
the Income Tax that is the principal
cause of complaint, but the offensive in
termeddling with private affairs which
| the tax renders necessary.
The plea put forth BY certain Senators
that the failure to re.enact the income
Tax would seriously injare the Repub-
! liean party, is even more absurd thar
the assertion that The Tax is needed by
the Government How could it hurl
1.-THE Republican party, when the Demo
cratic members unanimously, we televc
voted against the tax? Ii it was mean
that the patronage Of six millions Q
Idollars derived from the tax was neces
sary to the success Of the Republicai
party. then there was a show of sens
| in the argument; but at the same tim
n it was confession both of corruption
and weakness, which We should not hav
| expected to hear from grave sre1eren'
Senators. The Republican party woul
! indeed have come TO a aitiful pass, if !
should need such means. of success
nor do we believe that six millions, Q
even sixty millions, of patronage, coul
: in such case savclit from destruction
!. So Mr as we have observed, the possess
elion Of the patronage Of the gevcrnmcr
slis quite as apt to injure Us to aid apart

The TWO Iniquities Passed.

The two iniquities, the High Tariff and
the Funding Bill, have passed Congress,
and, as their approval by the President
is certain, they may be looked upon as
the laws of the land. We have always
anticipated this result, for Congress has
been VIGOROUSLY bought up in the inter.
ests of the moneyed classes. From a
corrupt and shameless Congress, which
has thus sought to impoverish and OPP
press the people, we appeal 20 the peo-
pie thcmsclyes.in the coming elections.
The income tax, reduced from five to
two and a half per cent, with the ex-
emption increased to s., 900, still stands
as monument of a breach OF faith, il
having been imposed as a war tax, to
continue only until 1870. The people
have demanded that salt and tea and
coffee ani sugar and molasses be admit
ed free of duty. But their voice has
not been heard, and these necessaries o.
life to the poor as well as the rich are
heavily burdened. Coal and lumber an(
cotton cloth and iron are charged witt
duties SO high that it is not intended Sc
much to raise revenue upon them as
to vote large sums of money into th'
hands Of the manufacturers of those ar
IticIes. This tariff bill probably incrcas
les the prices of most of the necessarie'
lof life to the people from fifty to a hun
| ldred per cent. The poor laborer, wit
earns a aIdollar day, has to return, ,unde
this plundering system, fifty cents OF
| to the protected monopolists. The Who'll
foreign importations Of the country, sa..
four hundred million dollars year, ar
loaded down with taxes to the amoun
of one hundred and fifty million dollars
l Trade is shackled and business is dt
pressed and ruined under such a fright
ful imposition.
The Funding Bill is, if possible,a sti
greater scheme of rascality. 1t convert
q debt which is now legally payable IN
paper currency, at large discount frol
[gold, into one payable in gola. It d
prives us of the opportunity to pay
our pleasure, and extends the debt ft
|ten, fifteen and thirty years, the intere
lin the mean time amounting to mo-
than the principal, and all wrung out

Interest reduced from six per cent

Il reduction could have been accomphshe

er of taxation without surrender

Tone Of the German Press.
The New Yorker journal Of Saturday

says: 4.
The declaration Of war By France has
after all, found no better pretext than
the alleged insult inflicted upon the
French Ambassador by the King Of
Prussia. The truth is, that not the Am
bassador but the King was insulted,
since the former had the insolence to
annoy the King at the springs in Ems
with his diplomatic demands and there
npon his Majesty refused to receive the
impudent fellow. It's plain that on the
French side a provocation was intended,
and tAe pretence is so bold that one
need waste no words about it. ie The
sympatllies of Germans IN the United,
States are, with the exception of few,
who entertain other opinions through
religious reasons, on the side of Prussia
as q German Power, and they unani-
mously condemn the reckless conduct OF
France in kinding a European war upon
so insignificant rretext. We do not for
an inst ant doubt that there are hun
dred thousand Germans in the United
States who are readysto hasten in arms
to the aid of the land Of their birth we're
the ways and means to do SO open to
them. 20 3

Dispatches from New York, 10th inst,
say Of the war:
aThe war between France and Prus-
sia, it is believed here, will be- short,
sharp and decisive, and will determine
which of the two nations will be the mil
itary controller of the continent
Frances effective force will be about
7aO GOO men and Prussia's. 97O,00O.-
Just now the odds seem to be IN favor
of the Prussians with whom are the bulk
of American syrnpathizers."
The Columbus, Ohio, Statesman, of
the 18th, says:
$50 far as we can gather from the
tone of the press the sympathies o1
the American people very generally GO

element in our population is intense in
ITS devotion to s.Fatherland," and this
accounts to some extent for the tone oi
