Mr. Hooper presented a cOmmunlca.
ton from Mr. Pleasanton, Commissioner
of Internal Revenue, relating to the in
come tax, which was referred to the
committee on Ways and Means. Mr.
Pleasantou, in the communication, says: :
| regard the tax as one, OF all others,
most obnoxious to the genius of the
people, being inquisitorial in its nature
and dragging into public view an expo
sition of the most private pecuniary
affairs of the citizens. Such unwilling
exposition can only be compulsorily
effected through the maintenance of
most expensive machinery. Both the
nature OF the tax and the means neces-
sarily employed in its enforcement, ap-
pear to be regarded by the better class Of
citizens with more and more disfavor
from year to year. 1t is, furthermore,
most difficult to make an exact state
ment, especially in large business rami-
fcations AMI where long periods Of
time are involved in extended com
mercial affairs. There is some question
as to its constitutionality, but as to that
| express no opinion. The amount de.
rived from that source has, under legis-
lation already had, been greatly dimin-
ished, and am so well satisfied that
the evils more than coonterbalance the
benefits derived from its longer reten-
ton, that recommend itsuncondiiional
repeal.
Mr.. Loughbridge introduced a bill
allowing additional representation in
the Forty-thiri Congress as follows:
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Georgia,
Texas, Wisconsin, and Kansas, two
each; Missouri, Michigan and Iowa,
three each; Massachusetts, New York,
Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Florida, Mississippi,
California and Minnesota, one each,
and Illinois, four; such additional
members to be elected by a general
ticket. Referred.
The House went into committee OF
the Whole, Mr.. Wheeler in the chair,
and resumed the consideration Of the
Indian appropriation bill, which was
discussed al much lenght. Without dis
posing Of the bill, but having reached
the last paragraph, the committee rose.
The death of Senator Norton, OF
Minnesota, was announced, when eulo-
gies were pronounced on the life and
character Of the deceased BY Messrs.
Wilson, OF Minnesota, Wilkinson and
Morgan. After which the House ad.

The Cattle Disease.

DR.. Morris, sanitary inspector, re-
ports to the board Of health that the
loot and mouth disease now prevailing
among cattle was recently imported
from Europe by way Of Canada. But
short time is required to communicate
it by means of railroad transportation
to our herds and markets, and the cars
themselves, as well as the Yards in
which diseased cattle have been bat a
short time, are means OF propagating
the infection to healthy stock. The
disease is by no means fatal in its char
acter, but rapidly depreciates the value
OF such stock both for market and
dairy purposes. The animal loses
flesh rapidly, and the milk reduces in
quantity a disease appears to have
been produced in the human subject
when the milk OF COWS suffering from
foot and mouth disease has been freely
used without being boiled. 1t seems to
consist OLA arrangement Of the alimen-
tary canal, accompanied by febrile dis,
turbance and the presence Of vesicles
on the mucous membrane OF the
mouth and tongue, which having rup-
tured, leave superficial alterations, and
at times an herpetic eruption about the
exterior Of the lips.
In this State the instructions to the
assistant cattle commissioners have
been explicit, from the first knowledge
of the presence Of this disease, both as
to placing in quarantine whatever an
imals may be found sick, and at the
same time to prevent the sending OF
milk to the city from dairies where the
cows are 80 affected, and liberal use
Of disinfectants in cars end Yards. This
has been done rigidlyin every instance,
as DR.. Morris informed the assistant
commissioner, Dr. Guernsey, in Duchess
county, and Mr.. Dayton. in Queens
county. In Duchess county DR.. Guern-
sey has already quarantined over 1000
head Of cattle, large proportion OF
which were dairy cows. At Albany
the assistant commissioner, DR.. Strm-
son, has endeayored 10 prevent its
further spread by great care in watch.
ing and quarantining whatever could
be discovered passing through it. In
our cattle yards this disease has been
discovered among beef cattle and COWS
/, on sale for dairy purposes. The rule has
been To allow animals to be killed un-
less they we're badly diseased, as there
is as yet no evidence which proves that
their flesh is unhealthy as human food
but cows or other cattle are not allowed
to leave quarantine to communicate the
disease 10 other herds, unless they have

CONGRESSIONAL
SENATE.

Mr.. Cameron called up House bill
to reimburse Robert Bingham, late
postmaster at Franklin, Pa, for loss by
the failure of the Venango National
Bank Of $1,000 Of public funds, deposit
ed there by that postoffice. The discus
sion lasted till after the morning hour
expired, and the bill was defeated.
The Senate then took up and passed
the pension appropriation bill. The
bill goes to the President.
The Senate resumed the considera-
ton of the bill repeating the income tax
for Dec. 81, 1869, and Mr.. Bucking-
ham spoke of the practical defects Of
the law and the failure to enforce it, and
in consequence Of the neglect OF the as
SCISSOR to impose, and collect penalties
for the neglect and refusal OF a party
to make returns. For these, and other
reasons enumerated, he would vote for
repeal.
Mr.. Cole opposed the tax on incomes
as distinct from taxes on salaries
and corporation dividends, believing
the former to be the most Objectionable
of all our taxes. Its collection a year
subsequent to acquiring income upon
which it was levied, was frequently at
a time when the person paying was los,
Ing instead of acquiring property un-
der the two thousand dollar exemption.
Mr.. Johnston regarded the internal
revenue system the main cause OF the
present business prostration.
Mr.. Morrill, Of Vermont, referring to
the statement of the Secretary OF the
Treasury that the revenue from the in.
come tax was indispensable as means Of
meeting the current expenditures,
said he would regard its repeal as an
expression by the Senate Of want Of
contidencein the Secretary. The effect
Of such legislation, under like clrcum-
stances, in England would cause the
ministry to retire at once.
Mr.. Corbitt suggested that If the
tax was decided unconstitutional by the
Supreme Court it could not be reimposed
by Congress in any subsequent pub,
lie emergency. Immediate repeal
would be polite, as supersedlns such
decision.
Mr.. Howell denied that the mass Of
the people Of this country asked for
repeal, and urged that the outcry in its
behalf was dictated by selfish consdera-
tions.
Mr.. Thurman favored the reduction
of taxes, and would vote for repeal,
but did not favor the entire abolition Of
the revenue system. That would likely
be the means of perpetuating a more
onerous system in the present tariff
laws.
Mr.. Warner thought Congress could
not proceed further in reducing taxes.
He could not vote tor the repeal Of the
special tax on the rich, while taxes on
the necessaries Of life that came out OF
the pockets of the poor, remained.
After further discussion, the Senate
passed the bill-yeas 26, nays %.
The following tax bill passed the
Senate:
A bill to repeal so much Of the act
approved July l4th, 1870, entitled an
act to reduce the internal taxes, and
for other purposes, as continues the in
come tax after the 3lst of December,
1869.
BE il Enacted, &c, That sections E, I,
8, 9, 10, IL, II, l3, IA, Is and l6, Of
the act entitled an act to reduce the in
ternal taxes, and for other purposes, as
approved the 18th Of July, 1870, he
and they are hereby repealed.

Ayers Cherry Pectoral
For Diseases Of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whocping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.

Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history Of
medicine, has anything won SO widely and so deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through long
series Of years, and among most of the races of
men it has risen higher and higher in their estilna
ton, as it has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the various affections
of the lungs and throat, have made it known as re-
liable protector against them. While adapted to
milder forms of disease and to young children is
at the same time the most efectua remedy that can
be given for incipient consumption, and the dan.
gerous affections of the throat and lungs. AS pro.
vision against sudden attacks of Crossr, it should
be kept on hand in every family, and indeed as all
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs, all
should be provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought in.
durable, still great numbers Of cases where the dis.
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured,
and the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry Pect0ray. So complete is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that
the most obstinate of them yield to it. When moth.
ing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pee
tOraE they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great pro.
lection from it.
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry Pectoral in small and frequent doses.
For Cough and Cold, no better remedy can
be had. Take small doses three times day and
put the feet in warm water at night, until the
disease is broken up.
For Influenza, when it affects the throat or
lungs, take the same course.
For Whoopin0 Cough, give small doses three
or four times day.
For Group, give large and frequent doses until
the disease is overcome.
No family should be without the Cherry Pecto-
raj on hand to protect them, in case Of attack,
from the above complaints. Its timely use often
spares the patient great amount of suffering and
risk, which he would incur by waiting until he
could get other aid. Parents keep itin your houses
for the exigencies that arise. Lives dear to you
may be saved by It.
So generally are fits virtues known, that we need
not publish certificates of them here, or do more
than the public that the best qualities it ever
possessed are strictly maintained.
