The unexpected declaration by Commissioner
PlesSontcn before the WAYS and Means Com
mittee that the income tax can and ought u be
abolished should seal the fate OF that obnoxious
imposition. 1t has been maintained since the
time it legally expired only because the govern
meBt has b, retofore Insisted that il could not
be dispensed with. NOtwithsta nding the pros
tra'iOn Of industry and the gener al depression
OF business throughout the country, making the
burdens oftaSstiOn specially onerous, il ppears
that the taxpayers have during the past wear
been compelled to pay So, 196, 523 g more
than they paid in 1863 10 Collectors OF Internal
Revenue; and that the income tax last wear
was So ,'I5, SI3.e2, or a little more than the
excess Of the total revenue OF the government
IN los0 over that IN 1859. Yet this excess OF
revenue WAS not needed unless il is proposed
to cripple the people of the present decade TO
lay of debt that should be divided more
eqGitably over series Of wears. The taxes
should at least be reduced to the extent OF
wipIng oct this income tag which is not only
Particularly offensive to the people, but i, so
cun.0rCus and expensive in its machinery that
a large proportion OF it is wasted in the collec-
tier.

The almost unparalleled case of cruelty re
ICrItd in Wednesdays STAR, being the puIlin ,
out OF horses tongue in Georgetown bv il.
brutal driver, who manifested no concern a
the dreadful suffering he inflicted, was soshock
ing that the statement was scarcely credited.
Some CT our exchanges intimat ed that it y,s
an invention of The STAR reporter and other,
slyy nsinuated that would req uire the strength
OF Samson to accomplish the feat as described
Mr.. GatChell, Preside Mt of the Society for the
Prevention OF Cruelty to Animals, had his
doubts too, but went to work notwlthstandins.
and the result was that he discovered the heart
less offender and obtained the evidence of his
barbarity-the tongue OF the mutilated animal.
The man was brought before Justice Walter.
and his offence was fully proved. lie could
only be punished under the Law of June H.
1855, which imposes a fine of not less than i've
dollars nor more than ten dollars for cruelty
beating or abusing horse, q penalty entirely
too light Tor the atr ocious crime committed in
this case, and yet the Justice uDaccountably let
tue offender off with the minimum fine. The
sooner the las is amended so as to provide a
suitable penalty for extreme cases of cruelty
the better, and We are glad to learn that Mr..
Gatehell will 60 before the proper committees
in Congress with the facts i'm this particular
case, and urge the passage of such an amend
atOry law.

The utility OF the system Of storm signals
adopted by the government has been shswn
more than once. In December last storm
sSsp: ever the Western States, and its arrival
At given points was foretoId with the greatest
accuracy, and the system then excited consld-
cradle attention. 1t is possible to calculate the
effects OF the two great forces which influence
the atmosphere at ordinary times-the suns
heat and the rotation OF the earth-and Thus
common atmospheric currents are well enough
understood, but all the forces at work at any
given time cannot be subjected to analysis. the
storm signals become invaluable aids in show
ing the elements of an approaching storm, and
hence III preparing to meet it.

The Proposed New Governmenf fer
the District.

Mr.. Cook, from the House District Commit
tee, reported . substitute for the Senate
hill providing a new mode Of government
for the District Of Columbia. The District
Committee have given q good deal of
thoughtful consideration to the matter of
providing a remedy for the various evils of
the four or i've Earring and inefficient jurisdic-
tons operating at present in the District. The
result of their labor is the bill reported, which
embodies some amendments TO the Senate bill
but retains the important and valuable features
of that measure. The committee believe that
the passage of this bill will make an efficient
homogeneous government for the District, and
at the same time that the cost OF government for
the two cities and the county will be not more
than two-fftLs of the present rate to the tax
payers, and not more than half the present cost
70 the L. ). Government.
Mr. Cook Is pressing the bill to a vote to-day
by ctions, and the indications are that it Will
pass the House by large majority if a vote is
reached this sf ernoon.
An amendment offered By Mr.. Ella, mixing
the offiCe of governor elective instead OF by ap-
FointmeBt, received only thirteen votes.
