Down With the Taxes.

Will Congress, asks the Boston Jour
nal, a Republican journal, hear the de-
mand coming up from all parts of the
country for q reduction of taxation aud
a removal of the burdens which are
Frustrating business The business
men of the country, without distinc,
ton of trade or politics, demand it.
They have carried the burden willingly
while it was necessary, and would do il
again if the exigeucies of the Govern
ment demanded it. No sane man can
believe that the wants of the country
Justify such an enormous taxation as is
now imposed. The New York Sun, in
noticing Senator SHERMAN's design to
continue the income tax st reduced
rate, says:
The people will object to this, be-
Gauss it is o violation of public faith
When the income tax was originally
levied, amid the EXTREMIST pressure OF
the war, Congress solemuly pledged the
faith of the Government that it should
cease with. 1870. That is as binding a
promise as that on the face of the Gov,
ernment bonds. 1t is contract With
the people, and cannot be repudiateo
without dishonor.

Democratic and Conservative
state Convention.

The citizens of West Virginia who favor the
repeal of all proscriptive laws now in force in
this State and the enactment of such measures
rs will give the State character abroad and har.
mony and prosperity at home, are requested to
meet in their respective counties or townships,
at as early day rs may be practicable, and
choose delegates to q State Convention to be
held in the town Of Charleston, Kanawha ooun.
ty, on
Wednesday, the Sth day Of June, aS7O,
TO nominate candidates for the offices Of Gov.
ernor, Auditsr, Treasurer, Secretary Of State,
Attorney General and Judge Of the Supreme
Court of Appeals.
Zach county or delegate distric. win cast ten
votes in this Convention for svery representa-.
tive in the House Of Delegates TO which such
county or district may be entitled.
The effect Of our proscriptive system in driv.
ing large numbers Of useful citizens from West
Virginia and in preventing immigration from
other States, renders tho speedy abolition Of
that system necessary to the public good. This
call is therefore addressed to all liberalminded
men. whether Democratic, Conservative or Re
publican, who desire to promote the welfare Of
the State and vindicate the rights of her citi
zsns By appropriate legislation.

when to Marry.

Mrs. Stanton has been making trouble
out West. 1t seems that the ipdomit.
able Susan recently delivered lecture
in st. Paul to Iadies exclusively" and
with what direful result let the Pionee,
tell: The lecture, which was upon the
rights and wrongs of women, marriage
and maternity, was very interesting
and instructive one. All were charmed
with the delicate, agreeable manner in
which the speaker treated the different
topics that were considered. She argued
that young ladies ought not to marry
before they were twenty-five years old
AS large portion of the audience con-
sisted of young, unmarried ladies, thi,
part of the discourse was not very well
relisbed. 1t is said that one young lady
of eighteen summers, the day for whose
marriage had been fixed for some time
in June next, last evening informed the
gentleman to whom sbe is to be married
that the time must be postponed fol
seven years. He protested, but she was
fixed In her determination, and declared
that it was no use talking, Mrs. Stanton
said no young lady ought to be married
before she was twenty. FIVE years old
and she would not be married "a min
nit afore that time if it took the last
coil of fax she had on her head" The
young man left her to mediate upon
the matter, and, notwithstanding that
he belongs to the Young Mems Chris
tian Association, he was heard using
some very hard words about Mrs. Stan

s,. Pa,riek,. Cathedral, N. Y.

Probably the most costly cathedral in
the United States is now being built in
New York city. The New York Eren-
ing Mail says that it covers the entire
space between Fiftieth and tlfty-nrst
streets to Madison avenue. The walls
of this magnificent structure are COM
posed of white marble from the Pleas
autyiIle quarries, Westchester coun-
ty. About one-third of them has
been completed. The foundation stone
Of st. Patrick's Cathedral was laid by
the late Archbishop Hughes, in August,
1858, the lots, twenty six in number,
having been previously purchased by
the trustees appointed for that purpose
The work, soon after commenced, was
suspended in the year following ana
not again resumed until September
1866, since which time slow progress has
been making with it at intervals. Two
millions ofdollars will scarcely cover the
cost of construction and ornamentatlon.
About 5000, O,0OO have already been eX-
pended upon it.. The money is to be all
raised by subscription from the munlt-
Gently disposed persons residing in the
diocese of New York, and their liberality
is to be rewarded by the presentation of
a Photographic view of the edifce when
finished. At present forty men are
employed in dressing marble blocks.
The mason work was all suspended
on the 7th of December last, and it Will
be recommended on the first Monday
after Easter. A very handsome marble
shield, costing $1,000, has just been i'm,
ished by q sculptor, and will be placed
above the hood moulding over the main
entrance on Fifth avenue. 1t contains

The Chicago Tribune is responsible for
the following: 1t is reported that Gen
eral Butler is about to start a newspa-
per organ in New York, in rivalry with
the Tribune on all questions
except the tariff, On which it will
advocate free trade. If General Butler
possesses from half q million to million
of dollars to risk, and flatter himself
that he can found first class newspa-
per in New York, the undertaking
would be so much more important,
memorable and useful than being o
mere member of Congress or the Cabi-
net, that he ought tolabandon all dema-
goging at Washington and set about it
at once. If, however, hs proposes to
furnish the money, and leave the under
taking to run itself, he must die soon il
he wants to die rich.

IT HAS recently been discovered that
our north boundary is defective,
The line was originally surveyed by
General POPE, who was at the time
a Captain in the service of the United
States. The defect was in consequence
of the line being two bundled feet too
far south, thus giving to Canada strip
of land two hundred feet wide and
many miles in length, which of right
belongs to the United States. It's said,
100, that General Pores line, which
should coincide with the 49th parallel
of latitude, does not do SO, but dips to
the north and south. Probably another
boundary commission will be required
to settle the dispute.

do for property, the Ironton Register
says. "The other day Mr.. Pennybaker,
who owns farm of about two hundred
acres on the line Of the Chesapeake and

to some stranger for the sum of S27, 900,
aud received few dollars of the price
to bind the bargain. He thosght the
amount 80 enormous that certainly no
one would call to pay it. But on last
