One doubling Senator, who did not compre-
bend that the Income Tax was dead beyond re-
covery, yesterday wanted to make an effort to
reconsider the Senate's vote, and resuscitate it,,
but met with no encouragement. A new Sec
ton in lieu of those stricken out was added to
the Tax bill continuing the tax on corporations
and the salaries of Government officers until
the end of the present year, when the Income
Tax expires. There were efforts made also
to prevent the restoration of the clauses tax
ing gross receipts, and fixing the tariff
on sugars, but these were likewise IN vain.
and the House bill remains little
altered save by the important omission OF the
Income Tax. But that it is important that the
protection which the Tax and Tariff bill gives
TO the Bessemer steel interests should at once
90 into effect, we should urge that no more
time be wasted on this bill, which makes little
change in existing tax and tariff laws, and
improves them not at all, except in the instance
named A great deal of time has already been
wasted in the effort to continue the Income
Tax in disguised form. The people were not
disposed however to take the bitter pill, no
matter how heavily sugar-coated, and they
will not observe with greater patience fur
tber waste of time over it.

FUNDING THE DEBT.

The interest bearing Debt of the United
States is something over Two Thousand Mill
ions of dollars.
The annual interest upon at least nine
tenths of this Debt is Six per cent in gold.
No other nation that has always regularly
paid its interest, and is now steadily reducing
the principal, pays so high a rate of interest
as this.
This great Debt was very rapidly contracted
under the pressure of a gigantic civil war,
which shook the foundations of our Govern
ment, threatened the disruption of our Union,
and taxed the resources of her loyal people to
the very utmost.
Of course, we borrowed under very great
disadvantages. Our promises to pay were not
then worth sixty per cent. of their face,
because it was doubtful whether the fortunes
of war might not deprive us of the ability to
redeem them.
But our statesmen were not shOrt-sighted
Under the pressure of a devouring necessity,
often confronted and embarrassed by defeat and
disaster, they were still wise and proyident
enough to borrow on such terms that they
might take advantage of better days, should
they ever come. They made their loans
mainly in what are known as FiveTwenties-
that is, bonds that we should be at liberty to
pay off after they had run five years, but
| could not be required to pay before the ex-
piration of twenty years.
The option has already matured with regard
| to the greater portion of these bonds, and is
| rapidly maturing as to the residue. If we can
sell at par new bonds to the extent of One
Thousand Millions, having 20, 80, 49, or 80
years to run, and drawing 4, Al, or per cent.
interest, and with the proceeds pay off and
redeem an equal amount of the matured Five
| Twenties, we shall save thereby ten, fifteen,
or twenty millions of dollars per annum, ac-
cording to the rate of interest borne by our
new bonds.
| In thus funding the bulk of our Debt at
| lower rate of interest, there is no reputation
no stain upon our faith. We expressly re-
served the right to do it when we made and
sold these Five-Twenties and it was fully
understood and expected that we should do it
| if we could.
Ours is not at all the case of nation seek
| ing to plunge deeper into debt. We do not
want to put one additional dollar of debt on
the market; on the contrary, we mean to per-
sist in reducing, month by month, the volume
of our indebtedness f; and we ought to be able
| to borrow at a much lower rate than nation
| like France, which is steadily increasing her
debt, even III time Of peace-and yet France

The Secretary of the Treasury, whose in

TRADING IN FAMILY RELICS.

When the ladies of the country desired to
buy the Mount Vernon estate, and the Mr.. Wash
ingtOn of the period desired equally to sell it,
we did not feel that there was anything I'M
pleasant or repulsive about the transaction !;
for land is land, and it was generally under
stood that Mr. Washington was poor, and that
he parted with the ancestral acres because he
needed the purchase money. We must con-
fess, however, that the commercial transac-
tons of the Mount Vernon Association, of which
Mrs. Ann Pamela Cunningham is Regent, are
beginning to be a little dubious The repre-
sentatives of the Washington family have, it
appears, in their possession many interesting
objects once belonging to the Father of his
Country, and 1t being understood that these
are wanted for the adornment of the old man
sion, their market value has gone up in the
most wonderful way. Frederick the Great
gave Washington clock, which the present
holder is willing to sell for $1,000, its real
value as a horologe being, probably, about
sos, or perhaps $50. Then somebody has a
sword which he will part with for a considera-
ton. Somebody has also "a snuff-box and
numerous other articles which "are to be
"bought." 1.-THE heirs" likewise, have a por-
trait of Washington on horseback before the
trenches of Yorktown" by Rembrandt Peale.

The Currency bill has been slightly amended
bv the Conference Committee, but the Senate
will hardly be able to wholly prevent the in
crease of circulation which the House seems
bent upon. Instead, however, of the S95,OOO,OOO
demanded there is to be $45,O0O,OOO emitted,
the States having the smallest circulation to
receive the largest amounts. After the in
creased circulation shall have been completed,
S25, 100000 are TO be withdrawn. Those States
having the largest amount of Currency are to
be the first to surrender 1t. The bill Is a con-
cession to the Western members, and very
Dad one for the finances of the country. The
Senate ought to stand by its resolution adopted
some months ago, and refuse to consent TO any
increase of the currency circulation.

Mr.. Maynard has introduced INTO the House
a bill "to punish the collection of illegal taxes
on passengers" We are not told what pun
ishment the bill DEGREES, or at what particular
form of offense it is aimed; but if Mr.. May
nard means to begin crusade against the
street railway companies of this city, who, be-
ing required by the United States Government
to pay a tax of one-eighth of one cent on each
passenger, illegally levy on the passengers a
tax eight times greater to pay it, we shall
heartily welcome the Tennessee Mountaneer
as the Metropolitan Deliverer. Make the pun
ishment heavy one, and trust only United
States courts to infict it, for municipal and
State judges here are, as Mr.. Maynards con-
stituents would say, powerful weak" and

The fermentation bill which has passed the

The Emancipation bill which has passed the
Spanish Cortes is better than the very gradual
scheme of Senior Moret but is only an unsat-
isfactory sort of measure after all. Slaves OBJ
tain their liberty at 60 instead of 65 years of
age, which is but a trifing concession to
justice for liberty at that time of life is rather
a sentimental than practical benefit. 1t is
still provided that children born of slave
parents since the overthrow of the Bourbon
dynasty shall be held in an apprenticeship diff
fering little from slavery till they are twenty
two years of age, but there are some important
qualifications of their bondage, designed to Sc
cure their immunity from ill treatment and
their immediate emancipation If they marry.
The new law is in fact compromise between
slavery and freedom, and, like all compromises
between absolute right and absolute wrong, is
likely to satisfy nobody. 1t will carry slavery
over into the next century, If it stands-but
we shall be surprised if it does stand even
five years.

The excellent account of the funeral of Charles
Dickens, which we copy this morning from Ihe
London Daily Neps, teaches us lesson which
we hope will be taken to heart whenever
we are compelled to follow a great man
to the grave. The simplicity OF the novel
lists tastes, his hatred of all shams ana
humbugs, his aversion especially to the
follies of funeral pomp and the horrible
mockery of professional mourning, were so al
fectionately respected that the public of Lon
don knew nothing of the obsequies until all
was over. Only few near friends and rela-
tives stood beside the grave where the body
of Charles Dickens was laid to rest, in the
company of Shakespeare, Handel, Garick,
Goldsmith, johnson, and Thackeray. When the
funeral train arrived there was no one in the
" Abbey, no one to follow the three simple
mourning coaches and the hearse, no one to
" intrude upon the mourners." 1t would have
been shocking indeed if he who created Mr.
Mould and described the burial of Anthony
Chuzzlewit had been turned after his death
into CHASTITY show.

may be sure that it never entered his head
that his representatives would sell to his
country the sword with which he had achieved
it's liberties, or that, many years after death,

The most graphic accounts OF the great fire
at Constantinople fail to convey an idea OF its
horrors and destIuctiveness. More than 1000
houses were destroyed, and property to the
value of S40,OO0,OO0 was sacrificed. More than
one thousand dead bodies have been recovered,
and there are still 1,400 missing persons unac-
counted for. Seven fire companies, engines
and men, persisted in the flames they endeav-
ored to subdue. The horrible incidents are
too numerous to detail. Strangest of all is
the fact that the fire thus destructive ragged
but few hours and spread with such rapid
ity that buildings were swept away in an in
slant, and with an explosion like that of a
cannon. Such awfully destructive fires are, for
tunately hardly possible in American cities,
with their broad avenues, brick buildings. and
superior fire engines.
