Reformation in the Kieinptions from Taxi-. It Is preamble tliat the subject of the finances Will, during the session of Congress now com menced, oocupy that large share of attention Which Ha magnitude demands. The feeling that Borne change Is absolutely necessary in regard to the tariff of taxes is a very general one, and we Judge there are few on the floor of the House who do not recognize the many de foota in the present system, and desire a re form. While, however, all unite in wishing A change, yet there seems to be but little har mony between them as to what change is Secessary. It is not unlike the naval council Of commanders against t he Armada each acltnowltdging it ruinous to lie to the wind ward, but each had a different direction which lie deemed It proper to sail. Therefore, it will require much mutual compromise to effect a plan generally satisfactory. There is one thought on the subject which is being slighted fry all the writers who have discussed the ques tion. Iiaoh favors a particular interest. One, With great Justice and force, desires that the tax on home manufactures be reduced. Another, with equal fervor, calls on Congress to diminish the tax on sales of merchandise, jft. third considers the tax on tobaooo and cot ton exorbitant. Each can show strong grounds In favor of a reduction, but all work for the j;ood of their particular business. This is per fectly allowable, but there is one aspect which does not appear in 'favor of any particular trade. It is a subject which directly benefits all the masses of the people, and one which should first of all merit attention. The increase of the amount of income exempt, frim $600 to $1000, was a step in the right direction. It is surely better to havo the burden laid heavier on the shoulders of the capitalist than to make the poor man, Without sufficient to keep his family in com fort, pay $5 on every hundred over six. But the exemption does not go far enough; Sor does it, in our opinion, do justice in the Bpirit in which it was originally intended. The design was to remove from the shoulders of the man who had heavy expenses the addi. tional burden of taxation, when in reality all Lis income was being expended in support of Ills family. . When, therefore, a single man, with no family, is allowed the same deduction as a married man with a large one, the essence of the proposed exemption is lost.. In many cases a single man with $1000 can much better afford to pay his share of taxation than many a married man with $3000. Yet in one case the burden does not fall at all, while In the other two-thirds of his income is subject to the startling tax of five per cent. What we think would meet all the requirements of the case, and do justice to all, would be to abolish the $1000 exemption, and, in lieu thereof, allow each man to deduct from his income all that he has actually expended during the year in necessaries for the support of himself and family. By this revision the theory of exemption would be perfected. The tax would fall only on the surplus of the Income. If a man had so one but himself to Bupport, he would have to pay a larger tax than at present. If he had a wife and children, lie would be benefited by the change. It Would relieve the most deserving, and do much towards removing the anxiety which racks an honest man in his efforts to meet the demands of family duty and of law. Before we would have the tax on either tobacco, or manufactures, or anything else reduced, we would 1iave Congress throw off the excessive lmrden under which so many poor and indus trious heads of families suffer. Such an ao ' lion in their favor would be perfectly oon Sistent with all the enactments of our State, and doubtless with those of most other Com monwealths. We have gone further in our discrimination in favor of the married men. We have a collateral inheritance tax of live per cent, on the gross amount, which runs against all those who are not married. In that case the distinction in favor of the Bene dicts is clear, but in the proposition we favor exact justice is allowed to every one. If our members will but give the matter the thought It merits; the advantages will be seen to in crease with Inspection. It will go far towards popularizing the tax law. While the direct tax on the earnings of every man is made to apply to the surplus over necessary expenses, lie will not find H so difficult nor so disagreea ble to pay. At the present rate of taxation we are receiving.on an average, over 120,000,000 a year more than is necessary to pay the interest On our. national debt, while the pre sent year the excess will reach the enormouB sum of $150,000,000. It may be very grand for us to say that we are reducing Our debt at this rapid rate, but it is taxing Our people for glory which they would never le called upon to bear, if common sense, and Hot pride, was to dictate our laws. Let the debt for the present stand as it is. Let us meet the interest. If, therefore, with proper reduotion of Government expenditures, we can effect a decrease of one huudred and fifty million dollars from the amount received, and yet meet our demands, we say that it is the duty 'of Congress to at once threw off the taxes on the income of a man expended in the support of his family ; and this can be done with perfect safety. The interest on the debt Is $133,078,243. The expenses of govern ment for last year were 152,509,5117, making total of 1290,247,540. Now, if this tax ou THE DAIIA KVENlNG TELEGRAPII PIIILADELFIIIA, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2G, 18C7. neceHFary expenses was thrown off, and with it I the taxes on home manufactures, and on the 1 production of neoessarlei and their sale, and also on cotton, we would have here a reserve left, derived from customs receipts, whisky licenses, stamps, and tobacco, of $316,000,000, at the minimum, which will be an excess of about $30,000,000 over what is necessary. Why then should Congress hesitate to act in the matter at once ? Why not act before the session approaches its short hours, when business is hurried through without though1 or discretion, and atteud with care to this reform, which is of vital interest to every man in the country ? Checks could be provided against fraud as effective as they are now. There is nothing to reuder it at all impracti cable or inconvenient. Believe us, gentlemen who have this matter in hand, there is nothing in which all your constituents are so deeply interested, and to which they demand more earnestly that you give your attention, than to the subject of exemption from taxation. They hold it of far more vital value thau either reconstruction or impeachment. Impeachment. Tub Judiciary Committee of the House of Re presentatives yesterday relieved itself of the buidensome secret of impeachment; and now that the country knows the full result of its labors, it has drawn a breath of relief. Until within the past few days, it was regarded as a foregone conclusion that a majority of the Committee would report against an attempt to depose the President; but the sudden con version of Mr. Churchill changed the whole programme at the last moment, and the ma jority report, signed by Messrs. George S. Boutwell, of Massachusetts; Francis Thomas, of Maryland; Thomas Williams, of Pennsyl vania; William Lawrence, of Ohio; and John C. Churchill, of New York, recommends the following resolution for adoption by the House: . Renotved, That Andrew Johnson, President of tho Untied States, be impeached ol high crimes and misdemeanors. The report signed by these gentlemen is too long for publication, and we doubt if many people will have the patience to peruse it and the two minority reports at length. The ma jority assert that the usurpation of power by the President is the salient point of the charges preferred against him, and that around it all his "special acts of maladministration will be found to gravitate and revolve." The struggle arising out of Mr. Johnson's "claim of more than kingly powers," in the opinion of the majority, has had no example in this oountry, and none in England since the days of the Stuarts. For the great "task of bringing back the dismembered States, and restoring those jarring and discordant elements into one har monious whole, the supreme Executive of the nation, even though he had been endowed by nature with the very highest of organizing faculties, was obviously unfitted by the very nature of his office." Mr. Johnson is aoouse 1 of being "in the doubtful and delicate posl. tion of a citizen of one of the revolting States;" and the majority insinuate that "it was, per haps, but natural that he should sympathize with the communities from which he had mainly differed only on prudential reasons, or, in other, words, as to the wisdom of the revolt at that particular juncture of affairs." To effect the mighty task of restoration, the Pre sident issued what are styled "his imperial proclamations;" and in carrying out their pro visions he is aceused of rivalling the boldness of Charles the First, when the latter did away with the incumbrance of a Parliament. After reviewing the law bearing upon the subject of the alleged usurpations of power, the majority say that they" "are of opinion that Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, is guilty of high crimes and misde meanors requiring the interposition of the constitutional powers of this Hottse." The specification of the charges against the Presi dent are then recited under thirty dif ferent heads, which may be summarized a3 follows: 1. Neglect to convene Congress on the final overthrow of the Rebellion. 2. Assuming to decide, by proclamation of May 29, 1865, whether the government of North Carolina was republican in form, and to guarantee such a government to that State, contrary to that provision of the Constitution by which this power is lodged in Congress. 3. Encroachment upon the provinoe of Con gress by recognizing as republican in form a government which he himself set up in North Carolina. 4. Convening certain conventions of known traitors in States recently in rebellion, for the purpose of forming constitutions for such States. 5. Ratification of these constitutions, with out their submission to the people. 6. The pardon of notorious traitors, with the view of receiving their aid in the conven tions. 7. The creation of military governors officers unknown to the Constitution and laws. 8. Appointing as such military governors public and notorious traitorsi 9. Directing the Secretary of State to pay theee illegal officers for their services. 10. Directing similar payments by the Secre tary of War. 11. Dispensing with the provisions of the act of July 2, 1862, prescribing an oath of office. 12. Appointing to office under the laws of the United States persons guilty of treason, who could not discharge their duties without committing perjury, or otherwise violating the act of July 2, 1862. 13. Applying the property taken from the enemy to the support of the illegal govern ments. 14. Usurping the power of Congress by levying taxes for the support of" these illegal governments. If.. DebyiDg, iu his messages, the power of Congress to paoify and restore the rebellious States. 1G. Vetoing bills providing for these objects, on the ground that the said States were already restored. , 17. Removing from and appointing to office, for the purpose of maintaining his usurpation. 18. Pardoning certain deserters in West Virginia. 19. Attempting to prevent the ratification of the proposed amendments to the Consti tution. 20. Making official and other declarations, which were calculated and designed to impair the national credit; 21. To encourage Rebels In resisting resto ration; and 22. To deprive Congress of the confidence of the people. 23. Exerclf ing the powers of veto, removal and appointment,' and pardon, for the purpose of obstructing restoration; 24. And for the purpose of alionating Rebels from the Government and laws. 25. Surrendering millions of railway pro perty to Rebels, knowing that it had been con structed by the Government, or captured from the enemy. 26. Selling railway property to parties un able to pay their debts, without exacting any security. 27. Postponing the collection of moneys due on account of such sales. 28. Diverting the earnings of these roads to tho payment of interest on bonds, of which he himself was a large holder. 29. Returning captured cotton to Rebel claimants, and causing the proceeds of sales of such cotton to be paid to these claimants. 30. Using tho army for the dispersion of a peaceful and lawful assembly in Louisiana, at the request of a notorious traitor. At the close of this formidable array of "high crimes and misdemeanors," the ma jority contend: "All of which omlsxlons of duty, tinumatlons of power, violation! ol Ills oatli ol office', ot the laws and f the CuUHlltulion of tiie United HtHtes. by the said Andrew Johnson, President of the United btaien, have retarded the public prosperity, lesseneu the puoilo ievenu.es, disor dered the buhlnt-NS and fl nances of the oountiv. encouraged insubordination la tho people of the .si ale s recently in reueinon. fostered senil nic ut 8 of hostility between ilKlVieiit classes of citizens, revived and kept alive tho spirit of the ltebelllon, humiliated the nation, dislio nored republican Institutions, obstructed the restoration oi sain states to ine union, and de layed and postponed the peaceful and fraternal xt-organization of the (ioverament of the United Hi ales." Two minority reports were likewise presented, the one signed by Messrs. James F. Wilson, of Iowa, and Frederick E. Woodbridge, of Vermont, Republicans; and the other by Samuel S. Marshall,- of Illinois, and Charles A. Eldridge, of Wisoonsin, Democrats. The Republican minority report, after re oiting the recent change in the views of one member of the Committee, says: "The report of the rnnjorlty rrsolves all pre sumptions against the President, closes the uoor against, ail uonots, atnrms facts as estab lished by the testimony, lu support of which there is pot a particle of evltleuce before us which would he received by any court lu the land. The cool and unbiassed Judgment of the future, when the exolternnnt In the midst of which we live shall have passed away, will not fail to discover that the political bitterness of me present time lias lu no InoouHl.terable degree Riven tone to the document which we decline to approve." The Republican minority then discuss the constitutional aspect of the impeachment question at considerable length, referring to legal authorities to show that an impeachment cannot be supported by acts which are not in themselves indictable as crimes or misde meanors. Judging the President politically, says their report, "we must condemn him, but the day of political impeachments would be a sad one for this country." It therefore declares that the case does not disclose "such crimes and misdemeanors within the meaning of the Constitution" as would warrant an im peachment. A resolution is recommended for adoption discharging the Committee from the further consideration of the subject, and laying it upon the table. The Democratic minority join with (heir Re publican colleagues of like mind ia believing that the testimony does not present a ease for impeachment, but decline to unite with them in censuring the political course of the Presi dent. They apprehend that " his greatest offense will be found to be that he has not been able or willing to follow those who elected him to his office in their mad assaults upon and departure from the constitutional govern ment of the fathers of the Republic; and that, Btanding where most of his party professed to stand when they elevated him to his present exalted position, he has dared to differ with the majority of Congress upon great and vital questions." Such is the substance of the reports for w hieh the country has been so anxiously look ing for months past. It now remains to be seen how the labors and views of the Com mittee will be treated by Congress and the people. , St l'iri.'a riTnpniiAi..
