two like a shuttle-cock, and nobody is re-
sponsible for the failure. The Commissioner
of Internal Revenue, meanwhile, has ex-
hausted his arguments in favor of repeal Of
the tax, and delayed his preparations for
its collection as long as pos
sible and when he could risk
delay no longer, has commenced the distribu-
ton of the blanks to be used in the assess
ment and collection. But, as we are to be in.
ficted with session of the new Congress i'm
mediately, that body should at the very out
set of its career go about the task of repeal
ing the tax on incomes, and in a manner that
will convince the country that the movement
is serious one, not intended merely to
hoodwink the people, as has been the appa-
rent object of all the action taken upon the
subject by the expiring Congress-.

Mr.. 'RoosTER" SMITHS great pneumatic
bill, which proposes to give an irresponsible
boring company the control of the avenues,
streets, and alleys of the city of Philadelphia,
with the public squares for passenger sta
tons, was yesterday reported fsvorably to the
House of Representatives by the committee
which had it in charge. AS the people of the
portion of the city where this company of
borers expect principally to operate are not
in any way responsible for the election of
Mr.. Smith to the Legislature, it is certainly
rather rough that they should be inflicted
with any of the jobs which he is endeavoring
to get through the Legislature. We sincerely
hope that the virtuous members of the Phila-
delphia delegation, and some of them we be-
lieve to be virtuous, will mako a decided
stand against this and couple hundred or so
of similar measures which have been intro
duced at the present session by w. F. Smith,

THE FISHERIES QUESTION:

The fisheries question, which is expected to
engross so much of the attention of the Joint
High Commission, involves interests by no
means insignificant. The official figures
for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1870, show
the American fishing fleet to have consisted
at that date of 1892 vessels, of 81, AGO tons.
With the exception of S4 vessels, of 1924
tons, belonging to New York, all these be-
ionged to the five New England States border
ing on the Atlantic, Massachusetts, owning
1911 of the vessels and Maine 721. During
the year ending June 80, 1870, the total catch
of the fleet reached SO7, 11S cwt., valued at
S4, 900, 14O, divided as follows: Cod 2,14O,-
363; mackerel, $1,74S, ,5o4; herring, $4S,-
710 and all other kinds,
$152,5 ,563. In addition to the
fishing feet whose interests are to be brought
before the Joint High Commission, there is
the whaling feet, the operations OF which will
not trouble that august body. The number
of vessels employed in the whale fishery last
year was 300, with an aggregate tonnage of
67,954. Of these, 269 vessels belonged to
Massachusetts, ports, New Bedford, the centre
of the whaling interest, owning 2O6; of the
remainder, 23 belonging to New Lsndon,
Conn, to Sag Harbor, N. Y, and to San
Francisco, Cal. The total value of the pro-
ducts of the whale fishery for the year was
$4,97O, ,631, of which 81, 4,438, 491 was ere,
dited to oil, $531, ,797 to bone, and $if3
to other products. 1t will be OBJ
served that the annual products of the
whale fishery exceed those of the cod and
mackerel fisheries by nearly million dol
lars, and this in the age of olefant gas and
kerosene. While the fishing interests are
scarcely worth going to war about, they are
certainly of sufficient proportions to warrant
the taking of decided stand on the part OF
the Government of the United States and its
representatives in the Joint High Com,

CONTESTED SEATs.-After voting over
hundred thousand dollars of the peoples
money to defeated candidates for Congress,
the House of Representatives yesterday after
noon was suddenly stricken with fit of eco
nomy, and refused to give the unfortunate
Mr.. Conner, of Texas, a paltry couple of
thousands to reimburse him for the expense
incurred in defending his right to his seat
against some greedy candidate whom the peo-
pie desired to keep at home, and this, not
withstanding the appeal made by Conner, based
on the "peculiarities" of his case. If this
virtuous turn had been taken day or two
ago, before larger amount was voted to
man who claimed to have been elected as
representative at large for the State of Ten
nessee, when there was no shadow of law for
such claim, it would have been in better
taste; but as it is, the people will accept the
refusal TO make donation to Conner as

THE INCONE TAX.

A JOKE on the iniquitous income tax was
indulged in by the II ouse of Representatives
yesterday afternoon. A motion to suspend
the rules and pass bill repeating this OBJ
noxious imposition was rejected by a vote of
81 yeas to 116 nays, the result being received
with laughter by the House. The House of
Representatives has veral times during the
Congressional term about to expire ex-
pressed a willingness to abolish the income
tax, while in the Senate its advocates have
until within few weeks past, been in ma
jority But suddenly the Senats took a
fancy to the opposite side of the question,
and passed an original bill repeating the tax
Then the House threw itself on its dignity,
and with surprising unanimity accused the
Senate of infringing upon its privilege, under
the Constitution, of originating all
measures affecting the revenue
The matter went to conference
committee, where the whole business was
smothered in an agreement to disagree. For
the opponents of the tax to expect to start a
repeating bill on the last day but one of the
session, with the hope of getting it through
both houses, was folly, of course. and the
Forty-first Congress adjourns without reliev-
ing the country Of the most obnoxious and
unequal burden entailed upon us by the war.
Each branch of Congress, however, HAVING
expressed a desire to repeal the tax, the
blame of the failure to secure concerted ac-
llOn is thrown back and forth between the

THE LATE JUDGE CONYNGHAM.
The Painful Manner OF HIS Denth-Fiual
scenes md Inst Words.

scenes ana Last WORD
Wilkesbarre correspondent of the Scranton
Republican writes:-
The story of the accident which caused the
death of the judge is as follows: Arriving at
Magnolia, Miss, about o'clock last Thursday
evening, the train stopped there for the passen-
gers to take supper. The Judge, Mr. w. l..
Conyngham, and an old gentleman named Hen
derson, who had travelled with them from Pitts
burg, left The train together and took their
supper at the hotel near by, the usual place, the
Judge eating very heartily. While they were
thus engaged their train was taken away from
the place they left 1t and another came up, and
when they returned they went into one of the
cars, to find, however, that IL did not belong to
their train, and they turned to leave it.
The train was slowly starting, and they did so
with some haste, Mr.. w. l.. Conyngham and
Mr.. Henderson alghting without trouble, except
a harmless fall on the part of the latter. The
Judge was not so fortunate, as in stepping off
the steps to the platform of the depot,
which was rather low, he stumbled and fell,
with his legs between the platform aud the cars
OF the train, and when they had passed 1t was
found that his legs, below the knees, were
crushed in terrible manner. 1t is not known
whether they had been crushed between the
platform and the steps of the cars, or whether
the wheels of one truck had passed over them,
and there appears to lie no conclusion as to
which was the probable way. He was taken to
the hotel and medical aid Immediately sum-
moned, and everything possible was done for
his comfort.
He did not realize the extent of his injury at
first, no pain attended it, and he even made an
attempt to get up before he was removed from
the platform, saying, 'No matter, am not hurt
will get up in a few moments" He lived two
hours, and toward the last when reaction
seemed to be taking place, and he began to
feel some pain, and was told how serious his in
jury was, he desired amputaton to be tper-
formed. Injections of morphia were made to
allay the pain; while preparations were making
for the amputation, but under the effects of the
morphia he seemed to decline, and not a great
while after dissolution took place. His last
words were, 81 know that my Redeemer liveth."
Lydia Studley, woman upwards of eighty
years DID, who has passed the last fourteen years
in the Rhode Island State Prison for poisoning
her husband, has been pardoned.

witched you?"
