The FUNDING BILL IN WALL STREET. -
The Funding bill reported to the Senate,
Thursday, it is stated, is regarded in Wall
street as the best considered and mos, prac-
teal measure for the recoustruction of the
finances yet presented to Congress. Par
ties who have the best source, OF iDforma
ton At Washington state that the bill has
been thoroughly csnvassed in both Houses,
and is accepted SO unanimously as the great
party measure Of the session, that there is
no doubt as to its adoption in substantially
its present form. There is the highest
standing and wealth in Europe prepared to
guarantee a market for the first issue of
$4o0, 900, 600 at FIVE per cent. OF course
the banks do not relish compulsory sub
stitutiou Of the bonds Eeld against their
issue OF notes by others paying one to two
per cent less interest. TIE clause of the
bill providing for free banking is disliked on
Wall street, on the ground Of its providing
tora construction of legal tender equal to
the new Issues of national currency.

How Just Income Tax might be linz
posed.

The House of Representatives has passed
a bill continuing the income tax, in viola.
ton of the plighted faith of the Govern
mcnt. AT the same time, however, 1t has in
creased the list Of exceptions. As these OK
ceptions now stand, a man may own prop
erty TO the value of about $4,000, and pay
no tax on IL whatever While clever young
fellow who has no accumulated capital, but
who derives $4,000 or more year from his
labor, will have to suffer the imposition Of
this unjust tax.
Ii, however, the sound principle is adopted
flat labor ought not to be taxed at all, and
that no form of realized capital ought to be
exempted, we should then have in this coun-
try about thirty.four thousand five hundred
millions of property subject TO this sort of
taxation. Estimating at seven per cent. a
year the annual product of this vast amount
of realized capital, and imposing upon that
product an income tax of one per cent, we
shall have as its annual contribution to the
Treasury twenty four millions and half OF
dollars. Next, counting the profits on
business and trades at n thousand mil
lions n year, the same rate of taxa
ton would yield ten millions of dollars from
that source. This would make thirty -fouI
millions and half as the product of a just
income tax, sum nearly twice as large rs ID
expected TO be raised by Gen. ScHENcK's un.
just end unprincipled bill. This would be
fair tax, not bearing upon labor, but upon
invested capital alone, and not blotted by
exceptions but imposed upon all citizens
alike, in proportion to the amount of tLeiI
property and of its profits

A Third-ratc Rebel and Fourth-rate
LAWYER for Attorney.GenerB.


If Gen. GRANT desired to signify to the
cuuntry, by an appointment TO his Cabinet
tina. IT was no longer expcdient to inquire
whether his confidential advisers had fought
on the right side OF the wrong side during
the war. he should have selected for Attorney
General n rebel OF distinction, and n lawyer
who was Ct for the position. II, for example,
he had conferred this important office upon
RopERT TooMBs, n man of brnns of genius
of pluck, and who is thorough lawyer, and
we'll known TO the nation, IL would have
signifed something but to waste it upon
ACKERMAN, who was one Of TooMBs's adiu.
tants was n third.rate rebel and is fourth
rate lawyer, and wholly unknown to the
country, is simple nonsense.
If AcKERMAN was sincere rebel, then he
believes in the old CALHOUN doctrines of
state Rights and Secession, and will here.
after when in GRANTS Cabinet, as hereto
fore when in the Confederate army, construe
the Constitution according TO his creed. And
pretty Attorney General he will make
when required as he will be from day to
day, to pass upon the Thirteenth, Fourteenth,
and Fifteenth Amendments and the recon-
struction acts of Congress. If, on the other
hand, AcREmAN was n hypocrite during
the rebellion, what assurance have we now
that he will not be hypocrite in taking the
same oath to support the Constitution in
1870 which he repudiated in 1861?
This is an unwise and dangerous APP
pointment and, in view of the inconsidera-
bic standing at the bar and before the coun.
try of the beneficiary, 1t is utterly worthless,
and to the last degree incxpedient. All that
it signifies is Che incapacity of Gen. GRANT
TO comprehend the necessities of his party
and the sentiments of the people.
If the Republican Senators have deter.
mined to destroy GRANT and let their party
slide, let them confirm AcKERMAN.
