MICHAEL KRLLY'S INCOME TAX.

| have known of but one man who
possessed pride enough to induce him
to give in a return to the assessors Of
property more than he actually posses
sed-a man who felt pride in paying
the biggest tax in town. But that man
has been gathered to his fathers, and
| doubt if he has left behind him a man
to wear his proud mantle. Rcmcm
bering this case led me to seize upon
the following, when | heard it, and
keep 1t for telling and l will tell now
1t transpired in London, and Michael
Kelly was the hero.
In the pride Of his heart, Michael re-
turned his income at $500 yearly; but
the commissioners were not COntented:
they urged that his various empIoymenls
must bring him In twice or thrice that
sum. Here is the account OF the in
terview, as | find it in Michaeps own
telling, and It is worth repeating:
Sir, said |, | am free to confess, l
have erred in my return; but vanity
was the cause, and vanity is the curse
of my tribe. l have returned myself
as having five hundred pounds per an
mum, when, in fact, | have not five
hundred pence of certain income.
Pray, sir, said the commission-r, are
you not stage manager of the Opera
House?
Yes. sir, said l, but there is not even
a nominal salary attached to that ofn1ce.
perform its duties to crafty my love
of music.
Well, but, Mr.. Kelly, continued my
examiner, you teach2
l advertise to teach, answered I, but
l have no pupils.
l think, observed another gentleman,
who had not before spoken, that you
are an oratorio and concert singer?
You are quite right, sir, said I, to my
new antagonist; but have no engage
ment.
Well-but, at all events, put in my
first questioner, you have very gCod
salary at Drury Lane2
A very good one, indeed, sir. an
swered l, but, alas it Is never paid.
But, my dear sir, you have always a
good benefit, said my second inquisitor,
who seemed to know something about
theatricais.
Always sir, was my reply, but the ex
penses attending it are very great, and
ii auY profit remains after they are paid,
1t IS mortgaged to liqaidate debt in
cured in building my saloon.
Have you not written play, Mr..
Kelly2
Yes, sir, to be hissed. The manu-
script is at present in the rag bag, and
is worth hall penny pound avJirdu-
pois. The fact is, gentleman, | am at
present very like Saint Georges Hos
pltal- supported BY voluntary conr-
butions-and have even less certain
income than |, in mE vanity, returned.
The commissioners put thejy large
heads togethcr, held serious confer
ence, and finally gave Mr.. Kelly per
mission 10 retire, having first admon-
ished him, however. tnat he should
, strive, for the good of the state, to real
ize something more Of returnable and
taxable en- Iuments. And Michael sin
cerely hoped he might be able to do
ito. H. S. III ~ Y LcGgcy.
