THE INCOME TAX.

WHEN the last motion made in the Senate to
strike out of the Tax bill all sections relating
to the income tax was lost by tie vote of
twenty-six to twenty-six, twenty Senators
were absent, and of the twenty absentees it is
alleged that fifteen would have voted to strike
out if they had been present This state
ment indicates that, in full Senate there is
still majority of ten, despite the sudden
conversions in that body, against the imposi-
tion which has justly become SO odious; and
although the movement for its repeal has
failed, there is possibility that, in
the final adjustment of the Tax bill
by a committee of conference, and the subse-
quent action on their report by the Senate,
the majority in that body against the income
tax may be enabled to exercise its just degree
of influence. An experience during the last
ten years of nearly every form of taxation
that the wit of man could devise has clearly
established the fact that the income tax COM
bines in the greatest possible degree objec-
tionable and unjust characteristics, and that
it is the very last mode that should, under
any circumstances, be resorted to in a
free country to raise revenue. SEN
ators and members of Congress can
not be blind to this fact, and when
they ignore it on account of the preju-
dices or supposed interests of rural districts,
or on account of the presumed popularity of
a tax that falls nominally on comparatively
rich classes alone, they disgrace their high
positions and perpetrate lamentable blunder.
The republic should, above all other things,
be just to citizens of every degree-to the
rich as we'll as the poor. If Congress wan 8
to go back to absolutely barbarous principle s
of legislation, let it adopt the Mexican
method of forced loans outright, and squeeze
all the money it needs out of the Golfers of
the rich, leaving the poor go scot free. The
income tax is founded on this principle, and
if it is just one, it may as we'll be carried
out to its logical results. Every rational man
knows, however, that such enormities of ad-
ministration as forced loans speedily react
upon the laboring poor, with even more Sc
verify than upon the bulk of rich men. When
] the possession or accumulation of capital is

set out in 1887. He was attached to
the receiving ship in this city in 1s4O, and
from 1876 to 1S47 he was on board of the frigate
Columbia in the Brazil squadron. In 1850 he
was on duty in the Philadelphia Navy Yard.
He was commissioned commander on the 18th
of September, 1851, and in 1858 he was placed
in command of the frigate Raritan, in the Pacific
squadron. On the 14th of September, 1855, he
was promoted to captain, and at the breaking
out of the rebellion he was in command of the
steamer Saranac, in the Pacific squadron. His
commission as commodore was dated July 10th,
1862. In 1867 he was assigned to special SER
vice. Commander Ritchie was highly esteemed
both in and out of the navy. and he leaves many
warm friends to mourn his loss.

COMMON COUNCIL yesterday passed the ordi-
nance appropriating $4,000 for the exten-
sion Of the insane department of the Aims
house, and it is to be presumed that this i'm
portant work will be commenced Immediately
and pushed forward as rapidly as possible.
The present condition of this department is
simply disgraceful, and it is manifestly i'm
possible that the patients should receive that
care and attention they are entitled to when,
as was stated by MIR. HUM yesterday, over
seven hundred of them are confined in an
apartment only sufficient to accommodate
about four hundred. 1t is estimated that the
appropriation voted will give two hundred
and twenty-five additional rooms, besides
other accommodations. 1t is not creditable
to great and wealthy city like this that such
a condition of affairs as now exists in the
insane department of the Almshouse should
be permitted under any circumstances, and
we are glad that Councils have at length
taken the proper action in the matter and
made suitable provision for a class of pen
sioners on the city's bounty who are every
way worthy of the most benevolent care and
protection.
