THE BARERE OF AMERICA.-[ Couraer-Jour-
nuLl-Morton lives in the wrong age ana the
wrong country. He would have been the
Barere Of the French revolution. "The yes.
sell of State" he would have said, "can float
into port only on waves of blood" He
would have rejoiced in sticking the fingers OF
women in bis hat, 10 jerking the limbs from
infants, in filling his pockets With The ears Of
young girls. He would have cried for inno-
cent Blood with the eager and earnest tnlrst
of q hungry tigress. He would have gloated
in the Office of carrying the head OF child
upon pike. Like Barerc, baseness IS an
instinct with him, and the impulse which
drove him from Il party in adversely 10
party in prosperity was as strong as nature
10 her meanest mood could make it. He is
as false as a courtezan and as cruel as Ca
iigula. Public sentiment, elevated by re.
licious enthusiasm, should wire lash of
scorpion tongues, and send the wretched
cripple scourged and bowling from the pre-
sence of people be has sought to emoroil,
and from the face Of country he has u.s.
honored and degraded.

THE falsehood in the st. Louis platform
that the national taxes increased from S. a
head in 1850 to S18 a head in 1870, has been
repeatedly exposed, but. Mr.. Hendricks re-
peats it in his letter of acceptance. The facts
are these. The ascertained population in
1860 was S31, 100000. Five dollars head
would be s157, 100000. The actual taxation
in that year was S53,0O0,OOO, or SLIGO head.
The population in 1870 was $500 600.
Eighteen dollars for each would be S693, ,0oO,-
600. The actual taxation in 1870 was 1885,
100000, or just $40 head. But why stop
with 1870. If there was discredit in increas-
ing taxes, chiefly to pay interest on the debt
and other expenses consequent upon the
war, credit must be given for reducing taxes
afterwards. In 1875 the population was at
least 100000, and the taxes were only
$267, ,000,0CO, OF $685. head. Moreover,
s14S, 100000 of the expenditures in 1875 re-
suited directly from the war, leaving only
81 SO head for the actual expenses of the
government, to be compared with the 81. so
head of 1860.
