Gov. Hoffman on Federal affairs and
on the Georgia Bill.

In his recent message to the New York
Legislature, Gov. Hoffman says:
The people of this State are deeply con-
cerned in a wise administration of Federal
affairs. AS representing them, | believe
it to. be my duty, before closing this mes
sage, TO call attention to, and protest a.
gainst, whatever in the policy Of the gen.
eral government strikes at their COM
mercial and agricultural interests, or Is in
any way p~rejudicial to their welfare. |
protest against the revolutionary course OF
Congress with reference to the amendments
of the Constitution of the United States,
by which, among their other c%iiortsa at CEN
tfalization, they seek the absolute control
of tbree-fourths of the States, they force
the contest of the Southern States as a
condition to representation, override and
~nullify the will of others, whose proper re.
lations to the Federal Government have
mover been interrupted, and whom they
cannot constrain.
| protest against the action of boil
Congress and the President Of the United
States, in subiecting tho people Of Geor
gia anew to military power, their STATE
government being in full operation, auc
the restoration of their constitutional rcla
lions with the Federal Government havin,
been recognized by the Federal authorize
as complete. I protest against the longe
exclusion from representation of any o
the States; if any one be excluded tn
rights of all are unsettled, and the har
mony of our government is DESTROYED.

away. before Uncle p eter could quite realize
the calamity that had befaIIen hIm. Yet h. fol-
lowed the officer, earnestly and piteousiy pro-
tesung, till he Was driven hack by Osths and
threats; then he dragged his cart homsward,
ana told his story-the old, old story OF wrong
ana injustice. Let us drop a veil over the sor-
Tow of that household.
Uncle Peter had several good white friends
gentlemen OF posiuOn-who generously interest
ed themselves In his cause; but 1t was long before
they could even obtain a hearing for their hui
bic client, and when his simple story had been
told and substantiated, they were informed that
there was redress-the horse clearly bore the
brand Of the United States, and even though it
had been raised from the dead. to the United
States IL belonged, and could not be given up.
Confiscation 10y the military police was the
bourne whence no property returned; and the
bav, now a valuable animal, was found to be so
tethered with red tape that there was no getting
him out of the government enclosure. So that
was the end Of the case of Uncle Peter vs.. Uncle
Sam, unless, indeed, claim be yet brought be-
fore Congress.
From the day of his bereavement our poor old
friend has never beheld his horse. On an instant
IL vanished forever from his sight, swallowed by
the quicksands of confscaton, like the steed of
Ravensword, "stabled in the Kelpic's how."
i don't know how my military or legal read
ers, If such have, may regard this transaction,
but look upon IL as a grievous injustice to
Uncle Peter, and a very small, mean piece of
business altogether. 1 desire not to be self
righteous, but feel very sure wouldn't go for
TO do such thing if L were the United States
Hearth and Home.

imposing a tar upon persons able to pay who
would otherwise escape the taxation imposed
upon others.
Mr.. Schenck said the income tax brought to
the government s35 ,nOo 600, and il it was wiped
out there was no opportunity left to reduce the
tax on the little necsssares IL was desired To-.
He favored putting the bulk of the taNes upon
the Injuries, the artificial appetites and the cap
ital of the country.
The House refused to concur in the Senate
Amendment.

mittee of conference on the census bill Messrs.
