THE INCOME TAX.

THERE is, at last, fair prospect for the re-
peal of the iniquitous andinquisitorial income
tax. The Senate, which has held out against
the repeal so stoutly, voted last week
to consider, this afternoon, the question
of its final abolition. The vote by which the
Senate agreed to take up the subject showed
more than q two-thirds majority in favor at
least of giving the matter its attention, and
it is to be hoped that there will be but
small falling off when the decisive vote is at
hand. The House of Representatives is
likewise about to move in the mat
ter, the Committee of Ways and
Means having yesterday, by vote of
to 3, agreed to report a bill repeating that
portion of the Internal Revenue law which
imposes tax on incomes. This action of
the committee is doubtless due
to the position taken by General
Pleasanton, the new Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue, who has signalized the be-
ginning of his administration by making a
determined raid upon the most unfair aud
obnoxious of all the taxes imposed upon the
people. 1t is said that Commissioner Plea
santon is supported in his present recon-
mendations by the President, but this report
is open to doubt, as the President has hereto
fore been a warm champion of the tax on
incomes. If he has, indeed, deserted the
Western farmers and their representatives
who are always laborlng to shift the burdens
of taxation from their own shoulders to
those of the unhappy people who dwell in the
large cities on the seaboard, he deserves to
be congratulated, and so do the people.
The income tax is not only obnoxious on
account of its inquisitorial character, but it
is beyond all comparison the most unequal
and un Just of all the systems of taxation re-
sorted to. AS was shown in the recent state
ment of internal revenue collections in this
city during the year 1870, Philadelphia has
been paying an annual income tax amount
ing to So, 2S0, 164'46, or about one-third of
all the revenue derived from the city by the
National Government. The aggregate re-
ceipts from taxes on income during the fiscal
year 1S6970 throughout the country were
$37, ,775, ,973'62, or but little more than one
fifth of the entire amount received from in.
ternal taxation of all kinds. This inequality
alone should be sufficient to influence the
vote Of every fair-dealing Congressman and
secure prompt action in accordance with the
demands of justice and the will of the people
of that section of the country which bears
the greatest burden of national taxation

Sam and Slushy we're in dead earnest in their
opposition to various little schemes of special
legislation, we should delight in chronicling
the manifestations of their newborn zeal
for the welfare of the people But there
are impossibilit in the political
as we'll as the physical world, and we can no
more expect Josephs and Smith to become
sincere champions of reform and legislative
purity than to see veritable COW Jump over
q veritable moon. There is therefore some
thing quite mysterious in the hostility which
the little snakes of some of the country men,
bers are encountering from Sam andISlushy
and one of the most probable conjectures is
that an arrangement is sought whereby these
little snakes are to be suffered to crawl
through the House only on condition that
some enormous serpent, not yet publicly ex-
hibited, which is under the special charge of
the Philadelphia members referred to,
may be suffered to drag in safety
its long and poisonous proportions
through the House. The public will soon
know, we presume, whether this theory is or
is not correct; but meanwhile we hope the
country members will not suffer themselves
to become too deeply involved IN the wiles of
the virtuous Fatty and the austere Josephs.
Let them remember all the stories they have
read of the lodges city sharpers play upon
country visitors and then recollect that Sam
and Slushy are about as sharp pair as Phila-
delphia has ever sent to the State Capitol.
''For ways that are dark and for tricks that
are vain" even the Heathen Chinee is not
more peculiar than Slushy and Sam; and,
while good many of their country cousins
are by no means verdant, they should not
depreciate the incomprehensible skill of fell
lows of the Ah-Sin order.

The PUBLIC BUILDINGS COMMISSION, now
that it is at liberty to prosecute the great
enterprise entrusted to it without danger of
further interference, has gone to work with a
proper amount of energy, and we may expect
that our new city hall will be pushed forward
to completion with as much rapidity as is pos
sible. At the meeting of the board held
yesterday, the contracts for removing the iron
ratings enclosing the Penn Squares and for
removing the trees were awarded, and bids
for excavating cellars, ETC., and for furnish
ing material were opened and considered.
While the preliminary work is being prose
cuted, plan is being prepared which, it is
believed, will be as near perfection as is pos
sible in the accommodations it will provide
for the various public Offices, while it will be,
in an architectural point of view, one of the
handsomest buildings on this continent and
magnificent ornament to the city. The gen.
tlemen composing the building commission
have good taste and experience, and they
may be relied upon to make the new city hall
such an edifce as every Philadelphia will be
proud of.

THE LRREPRESSLBLE PARKER
AGAIN.
THE

The Board of Guardians of the Poor had
stormy session yesterday, the caSUS 66l6
being, as usual, Mr.. Edward L. Parker. We
have endeavored to do justice to this gentle
man heretofore by endeavoring to believe
in him as reformer of abuses,
but from the Investigations we have
made and from the matters that were brought
to light at the meeting yesterday, we are
inclined to sympathize with the maj ority OF
Mr.. Parker's fellow-members on the Board of
Guardians, and to consider him as a dis
turber of the peace and harmony that ought
to prevail in the Almshouse as we'll as in
more aIistocratic establishments. A special
committee which was intrusted with the duty
of investigating various charges of mis-
management brought by Mr.. Parker against
certain officers of the house, reported that
they were unable to procure the attendance
of that gentlemen, and that they were COM
PEELED in consequence to conduct the inyesti-
cation without his assistance. They further
stated that the officers complained of by Mr..
Parker produced ample evidence not only to
show their entire innocence, but to prove that
Mr. Parker himself had dinterfered improperly
on numerous occasions with the management
of the house, going so far as to order some
OF the inmates to be confined in tho cells for
real or fancied disobedience to his commands.
Mr.. Parker had no reply to make to the re-
port of the committee except to deny its
trutbfulness and the other members of the
board, very properly thinking that this denial
was of little value, in view Of the fact that
Mr.. Parker had refused to state his case aud
produce his evidence before the committee,
adopted the report and passed a resolution
requesting Mr.. Parker to resign.
This Mr.. Parker declined to do, and he
consequently remains to be "a source of indef-
mite annoyance to his associates of the Board
of Guardians, and all who are connected in
any way with the Almshouse. SO long as there
was reason to believe that Mr.. Parker had
substantial reasons for his charges of mis-
management, he had the sympathies of the
public; but now that he has been shown to
be mere busyRody, with aseries of imagi-
nary grievances, there will be few who will
not commiserate the gentlemen who
are obliged to accept him as their associate
in the regulation of the affairs of the Aims
house.

The AUSTRALIAN SrEAM LINE Considerable
uncertainty seemed to exist in the colonies on the
departure Of the last steamer for this port regard
ing the future arrangements for the service. The
Sydney Nail. Of late issue, considers It unlikely
"that the Americans will run their large steamers
without a subsidy, and that the Bill, though re-
commended By committee, had not at our last
advices passed through Congress. Even when it
has passed, the Bill is so constructed that it will
not take effect ill the non-American Pacific COM
munities grant a subsidy equal in amount to that
Of the United States and to get this will require
great deal Of negotiation. Moreover. it is
scarcely likely that so far as this colony is con-
cerned, the American rate Of subsidy win be
granted unless it could be shown that their large
and expensive boats could alone do the work SAT-
isfactorily. So far however, as experience has
gone at present it is in favor Of TIE colonial
boats, seeing that the trip from the Sandwich
Islands to San Francisco, which has been carried
out by American Tessels, has been the part least
satisfactorily performed. Hr. Fl. II. Hall has or
fered TO run a four-weekly mail ssrVies direct
from Sydney to San francisco, via the Fijs. for
the sum of e45,O0G 4 year, and the three YES
sells belonging to the Australian Steam Nasiga-
tion Co., namely. the Wongl Wonga, the City Of
Melbourne, and the City Of Adelaide, are demon
strabIy capable Of making the trip each way in
thirty days, and therefore, or assuring mail sen
vice between Sydney and London Of not more
than forty-six days. With this offer before them,
Government is not likely 10 give moTs than that
amount to any foreign company. Tie Queens
land Government has already minated its Will
iDgness to contribute el000e a year 70 such
service, and this uould reduce the responsibility
Of this colony to e35,O00. Victoria would prob.
ably contribute something, which would mav
the burden still lighter; and It remains for.ur
Government to determine whether il viii aeept
the oaef made. It lies in our power 10 ,eeure
she service, not oily for Australia, but Or sgd
ney, and the opportunity is one which, { tnrosn
away, may never again Be presented. i Eouia
be great pity to see the service dop, even for
a time, Just as the experience Necessary to con
duct it properly has been acquired
