Gov. Tilden's Income Tax.

From the Near York Sun.
The attempt to make Gov. Tilden out
swlndler OF the government In the matter
OF his income tax, thirteen years ago, is an
electioneering trick devised by the fright
ened supporters of Gov. Hayes. Mr.. Til
den is a man of method, a lawyer of APP
proved ability, and a citizen punctilious in
the performance of his legal duties. Mr..
George Bliss is smart fellow 10 his way,
but he has not caught Samuel j. Tilden,
and does not expect to catch him. The
threatened income tax suit is piece of
political farce.
From the Nsao York World.
What kind of campaign will ex -Gov-
ernor Morgan carry on in New York;

financial campaign Without
If Governor Tilden has been guilty of
perjury" why does not Bliss do his duty
aud haye him indicted? Tlden never con-

THE VOTES OF LIBERALS.
Why Some will be Cast for Tilden

To the Editor of the n Y Tribune
Sir. In your issue of Aug. IA you say;
There is no doubt about it, the Demo
cratic party must fight the campaign as
the opponent of resumption.
We Liberals don't see it in that light
How are the Republicans going to fight
the campaign? Their platform must be
made of india-rubber; probably like the
suspenders the auctioneer was selling, it
is long enough for any man, short enough
for any boy, or else it could not hold such
ufationists as Vice President Ferry,
Logan. Morton, B. f. Butler, and Pig
iron" Kelley, aud such hard-money men
as Morton and Dix Nor could it hold
such reformers as Curtis, Schurz, and
Bristow; and On the other hand, Grant,
Babcock, Belkuap, Cameron, Chandler,
Casey, and Mcdonald. There is a worse
cheat in store for Liberal Republicans who
support Hayes than for US, and they will
find it SO If they succeed. They may
manage their side and Gov. Iilden aud
his friends will manage theirs, aud if we
have fair chance We snail turn the ad-
ministrarion party out to grass for few
years, like NebuchadnezZar in the olden
time. 1t will do them good. 1t is the
opinion of many that the country will | Z

mouldering about her, like the defaced shreds

Be content with the moon and the stars, pretty

They at last found 1t dangerous playl
Many things in this world that look bright, pretty

LIFE AND DEATH.

What is the life Of mann A passing shade
Upon the changeful mirror OF old Time
sere leaf, long ere autumn comes decayed;
A plant or tree that scantly reaches prime;
dew-drop OF the morning. gone ere noon:
meteor expiring in its fall;
A blade OF grass that springs to wither soon;
A dying taper on darksome pail;
The foam upon the torrents whirling wave;
bird that flutters on dropping wing;
shadowy spectre DER an open grave;
A morning-gory's moments in the spring;
breaking bubble on a rushing stream;
sunset after storm, an errlng angels dream.
What is this death we fear7 The peaceful close
OF stormy life-of reckless passions sway;
The veil that mantles all our cares and woes;
The heavenly ending Of an earthly day.
The crown OF life well spent; the portal fair
Which opes the way TO neyer-ending Joy;
1t sets the captive free as ar
From all the letters which on earth annoy.
What is this death? The sleep the pilgrim takes
After much weary travel he has known,
And whence with renovated power he wakes,
Ills soul more mighty for its slumber grown:
The glorious conquest over human Ill;
spirits Joy which death can never kill.
