Come to me, then, my Pretty,
And tell me what shall it be-"
And with laugh like merry tinkle,
She bounded up on my knee.
And I told her of "Old Mother Morey,"

And sang her bag of Rye"

And she began to cry.
"oh, why do you weep my Nellie2

And she sobbed, "Such stories as these may do

Chopped up his mother, and frightened
His young sister into fits.

And pitched them overheard!
And how he became pirate

The Income Tax.

A bill to reduce internal taxes has been
introduced by Mr.. Schenck, which holds
on to the Income Law with almost as firm
a graspas ever. The exemption is increas-
ed from present rates, 81 900 to 81, 500, and
the rate per cent, continued the same as
now. We trust that the sentiment of the
entire Republican press and people of the
country will be represented by a sufficient
majority in both houses to give this hobby
of Boutwell, and Schenck such reception
as will prove a quietus. In addition to
being the NEST inquisitorial mode of col
Letting tax, the Income Tax is the most
unequal tax levied by Congress. Honest
men may and do pay to the uttermost farth-
ing, but every Assistant Assessor, is cha
grined at the multitude of knaves who
escape, defying his every effort to assess
the Income Tax properly. Thousands of
dishonest men will escape the tax by con-
cealing their gains of the previous year.
and thousands of others keep no correct
account, in order that when the Assessor
calls they may be unable to account for the
Income received by them during the pre-
vious year. This particular tax has been
styled odious - because it weighs heavily
upon that class who strain every effort to
carry on business with a limited capital, in
competitor with heavy corporations, and by
the small exemptions which are allowed by
the law, and which Mr.. Schenck's bill pre-
poses still to continue, are crippled in
vital part, by being taxed on capital that
is necessarily spent in sustaining their bus
mess, and adding to it additions required
to compete with the improvements con-
stantly going on in machinery. If the
Income Tax is retained let it be laid upon
those whose incomes mark them out as
really wealthy, and let its burthens be lift
ed from the shoulders of the 'well to do
toiling millions.
