Mr.. Voorhees, on the Income Tax.

From the "GLoBE" OF Monday, we
Icopy the following remarks OF Hon. ID.
w. Voorhees,, OF Indiana, OH the income
tax:
l represent large agricultural dis
trict, populous and in good circumstan-
ccs. think, however, should be faith
less to their wishes OH this subject, ii
voted here to relieve that class OF peo-
lple who are best able to pay their tax
upon their incomes. The tax falls on
that class of people, who by the very
terms OF IL. have an income to be asses
tsed. The gentleman from New York
i Mr.. WOODY SAYS that this tax is inquis-
litorial The tariff OH the articles which
enter into the ordinary consumption of
a household is still more inquisitorial
in its character than this tax. There is
nothing that goes upon mans person,
nothing that he lives upon, nothing that
clothes his family, but is visited with
the inquisition of taxation.
| According to my view of the situa-
tion OF affairs, taxation Is quite unequal
enough now. and should not be made
more unequal by relieving the wealthier
and better able classes of the payment OF
this tax. Instead Of this being an un-
popular tax. l would say to the House
that the most unpopular act it could
commit would he, in my judgment, to
repeal the income tax. On whom does
this tax fall On bond-lIolders, although
not half 80 heavily as / would make it
:. fall on them if had the power. On
baifkers, though not to the extent it
ought. On the wealthy manufacturers
and mechanics, and aggregated capital
| in whatever hands il may be found. In
stead Of this being too inquisitorial a
ltax, | would make it more so if had
THE power: for under the law as il now
is men evade their taxes. 1t is a con.
(stant complaint III the various collec.
|tion districts that men, by false returns
by untrue accounts, cvade paying the
lproper tax on their incomes. And why
should not wealthy men pay this tax?-
Is it inquisitorial to impose a tax upor
incomes, which are better able to pay
taxes than anything else!
This is complaint which can no.
comprehend. especially when the tax
lgathcrcr goes into every household anf
--llays his hungry hand on the person o
evcry laborer, every farmer, every me
) chanic, and every member of man.
family. visiting them with an inquisi
-Ition which has no limit or restraint, il
lordcr to raise the revenue under on

The Word White i'm the Natural.

1t is stated by Washington cores
poDdent that bill will soon be intro

word white from the naturalization law.
When this is done the Chinese will be
eligible rs voters upon the same terms

fifteenth amendment did not do the
whole business. 1t requires this supple
mentary act. When it passes the pagan
Emperor Of China, with his population
of nearly 40OOOO,OOO, can send 2,OOO.-
900 or 100000 annually to our shores,
without feeling it, except in the good
which the empire will derive from the
ldiminution in the excess of population
What will be the effect of this upon on,
institutions! Is there any one SO blind
who cannot see it? The Chinese arc

the absolute school Of dcspotism. Oi

that part of the United States which

strongly are their sympathies in favor
Of their native land, that, when they die
they will not even allow their ashes L

"A correspondent of the Louisville
+" Courier-Journal" writing from Hart
county, Kentucky, to that paper claims
to have discovered au infalliable cure
for hog cholera, and offers it free OF
charge to the public. 1t is as follows:
Dissolve thoroughly one pound OF
copperas in three gallons Ofwarm water
and apply the wash about milk warm to
the affected animal,by dipping il into the
solution or rubbing upon it until the
skin is thoroughly wet. Whenever the
the skin Of the hog begins to look rough
and scaly or of dark red color, apply
the wash Immediately. DO not wait un-
iii the more alarming symptoms (vomit-
ing and purging) set in. Apply the
wash every day until the scales arc re-
moved.
The correspondent states that this rem
edy has been tried repeatedly, and with
out single failure when the directions
were properly followed. At any rate il
lis worthy of trial. We would sug-
gcst to those making the experiment that
they give the result to the public.

The curious effects of party feeling
are shown in the present state of poll
ties in France. The Emperor Napoleon
has proposed to greatly extend the pop
ular liberty now enjoyed by the people.
His amendments to the constitution are
to be voted upon early in May. They
are such as the opposition have long con-
tended for and arraigned the Imperial
Government for not adopting. But when
he proposes them, that makes all the diff
ference in the world. The radicals and
the enemies Of this dynasty will abstain
from voting. This is the resolution to
which they have come. This shows that
their regard for popular liberty is alto
gether secondary to their own personal
political interests. They are for liberty
if the Emperor is not for it; but if he
lis for liberty, they are either against it or
are neutral. This Napoleon has doubt
less fOreseen from the beginning. He
has counted upon party blindness and
infatuatiOn to oppose his liberal meas
urcs, and has not counted in vain. He
must gain largely by this state Of affairs,
and the opposition seriously lose. If
they had ordinary political sense, and
had not been blinded by prejudices to
their own interests, they would have
favored the reforms proposed by the
Emperor, and swelled the majority by
which they will be adopted. Hereafter
they will be considered ultras, and will
have little or no influence. The Emper-
or has cut them out in the bid for liberal
Influence.

ns- You will find that great deal Of

az You will find that a great deal Of
character is impaired and received ut the
table. Parents too often forget this !;
and, therefore, instead Of swallowing
lyour food in sullen silence, instead OF
brooding over your business, instead Of
severely talking about others, let the
conversation be genial. kind. social. and
cheering. Don't bring disagre.able
things to the table in your conversation,
any more than you would in your dishes.
For this reason, too, the more good COM
Ipany you have at your table is an edu-
Gator TO the family. Hence the intelli-
gence and the refinement and appropri-
late behavior of family which is given
to hospitality. Never feel that intelli-
gent visitors can be anything but bles-
sing to you and yours. How few have
fully received the fact that company and
at the table are no small
part Of education. .t..,.

INFALIBILITY.
The prelatcs' Protest Against
Infalibility.

The following highly important doc
ument has been adopted by many of
the Bishops in attendance at the Ecu
mcnical Council. and presented to the
Pope, on the subject of infalibility. The
paper is headed by the name of the Most
Reverend Archbishop Purcell. of Gin
cinnati = fact which gives its promnl-
CATION, if possible, additional impor-
tance:
Mosr Holy FATHER: Humbly pros
ltrate at the feet OF your Holiness, we
most earnestly suppicatc that the ques-
Ition on the definition of the infalibility
of the Sovereign Pontiff as dogma of
faith may not be proposed to the Vati-
can Council.
Among other reasons of this suppli-
Ication we beg TO adducc only three,
which appear to be sufficient:
| l. Because the discussion OF this ques-
ton will evidently show want of
union. and especially unanimty among
the Bishops.
| z. Because Oh account of the circum-
stances in which We are placed in cOun-
tries where heresies not only exist with
Iimpunity, but are dominant, this defini-
lltion. instead of attracting, would alien
ate those whom we seek by all Chris
tian means 10 lead TO the true fold OF
JChrist.
i 3. Because we anticipate endless qucs-
Itions will arise which may interfere
with and prevent The work of our min-
|istry. and cause the fruits of this Coun-
cil 10 be lost TO those who arc not mem
bcrs Of the holy Catholic Church. lIav.
ling laid bare our hearts and sincere in-
ltcntions, we implorc Almighty God tc
lavert all evil from the Church and that
lie may illumnc and direct you will
His lVly spirit.
