; . . ' TUB INCOME TAX.
For Ita action of the Senate yesterday, in
striking out the provision of the House bill
to! ft tin to the incotte tax, every just man in
the nation should be devoutly thankful. There
in no longer ft decent pretext left for the con
tinuanco Qf that odious, inquisitorial, and
unequal method of raining revenue. Not
only La the faith of the Government sub
stantialiy pledged to its abrogation, bat the
nocennity for its imposition passed away while
its groHfl injustice was 1eing cloarly demon
strated. The motives which prompted the
memHeir? from rural districts In the House to
. vote for its. continuance are
A disgiflca'to American legislation. They
moat have understood perfectly well that they
were imposing oppressive burdens upon thou
sands of men in the cities from which their
own constituents of greater relative wealth
find no difficulty in scaping, and that they
thus taed comparatively poor clerk) and
tmainofis men for the indirect benefit of com
paratively rioh farmers, They must have
known that while the law weighed heavily
upon straggling honest men, it was habitually
evaded by prosperous rogues. They could
not Lava been blind to the experience of
Groat Britain that, while an income tax may
lo theoretically fair, it is practically the
most unfair of taxes. They understood
bow bitterly ' the instincts of . the
American people revolt against a public ex
posure of their private affairs, and how gall
ing it is, in numberless cases, to announce
either wealth or poverty to the world. They
could not have forgotten that the tax was
explicitly classified, from the outset, as a war
tax, to be dispensed with as soon as it ceased
to be imperatively required by the Treasury,
and they could not pretend to be ignorant of
the prosperous condition of the national
finances. : Under these eircum&tances they
committed euch a grievous wrong in favoring
ths continuance of the tax, that they should
.bo glad to avail themselves of the opportu
nity , presented by the action of the Senate
.to cbango front. ....
By u singular coincidence the chair
man of the Senate Finance Committee,
tlio chairman of the House Committee of
Voy.i and Means, and the Commissioner of
Iuternal Revenue, who are the most earnest
advocates of the income tax, all hail from
Ohio Their course commands the approval
of a majority of the people of that Common
wealth, and we do not doubt that they faith
fully represent their immediate constituents,
bat they should not be allowed, either by
their individual or joint efforts, to impose on
tha whole nation a policy especially adapted
to tho views of the Buckeye farmers. A
Senator from California naid recently that
Ohio, with six times the wealth and population
of California, paid but a trifle more of the income
tnc, and this simple statement affords an un
aawerable argument against a surrender of
the belter judgment of the American Con
gte. to Ohio Senators and Representatives.
A prima requisite of all taxation is that it
bhnli bo made as equal as possible; and the
iucoma tax ia .so grossly deficient in this re
coct;, whether we regard it from a sectional
oc an individual standpoint, that the nouse
will commit an inexcusable error if it persists
m itn attempts to perpetuate this odious im
txjuitioti . We have full faith, however, that
the .Soaate will not recede from the just stand
it ha i taken, and that the income tax will
thsrofora soon find its true place among
e--t'.nct tuoustro&itieH. '
COM MERC I A I. AG ENCIES.
A ftrr that involves questions of consider
able importance to the mercantile community
hori beau brought in the Supreme Court of
New ork by Vetterlein & Co., of this city,
t- recover $100,000 damages from John Me
V. eliop and others, who carry on what is termed
n "commercial agency." Business men have
learned to look upon commercial agencies as
nothing more nor less than organized schemes
for levying blackmail. Practically, they are
of no benefit to . any one but the persons en
gaged in conducting them, and they do in
coloulable injury, often in such a manner that
it is almost impossible for the sufferers to
oil them to account for it. ,In this case
McEellop A- Co. reported Messrs. Vetterlein
A Co. upon their weekly list as having
foiled, and this statement, pub
iihhed not only, in the United States bat
ia Europe oad. the West Indies, caused the
complainants great embarrassment and loss'
in their business. They applied to have the
fatitoaieat corrected, but no notice was taken
of tho request, and they therefore claimed
dinnagoa for the above amount. Vetterlein
& Co were repeatedly solicited to subscribe ,
to the books of this agency, but refused to do
ao, and the plain inference is that the report
of their failure was circulated for the purpose
of intimidating them and others. It is appa
rent to the commonest understanding that
no commercial agency . can obtain really reli
able information about the status of business
' hoaM)i) by any fair means, and as they are
Lmited- by no ' responsibilities, except these
iuapoHod by the laws against libel, they
caa ' say what they please about
aay individual or firm that may not be in
thoir good grates. The libel laws in this and
otLar States are exceedingly loose and un-,
bitisfactory, and damaging hints and insinua
tions can bo made alino&t with impuuity,
provided no positive statements are put forth.
Indeed, this is the method in which, as a
general rule, the commercial agencies carry
on their business, and the information they
givou od cuaatiiifaotory in the majority of
c'i t'i tbowrt who obtain it as it is datuag
rua t'i thoHJ to whom it relates. In
the case under consideration, however,
Messrs. Vetterlein . have . substantial
ground upon which to base a suit for heavy
damages, and it will be a matter for congratu
lation if they succeed In " mulcting McKellop
& Co. to the tune of $100,000. A verdiot for
such an amount as this would be a severe if
not a fatal blow to the whole commercial
agency business, and it would be a direct
encouragement to other sufferers to aid in
crushing out the whole system , of
black-mail that the men who carry on these
egencie3 now practise with impunity.
TI1E GEORGIA BUSINESS. '
It was on the 17th of May, a month after
the latest action of the. Senate in the matter,
that the Reconstruction Committee of the
nouse instructed General Butler to report a
certain bill for the restoration of Georgia to
representation in Congress. Butler was him
self the author of the bill, but it did not meet
his views altogether, and so he quietly poo
keted it and awaited developments. Subse
quently the committee voted to attach the
BiDgham proviso to the bill, but in this shape
it was even more objectionable to the chair
man, and another delay was the result. Then,
on the 10th of June, Butler succeeded in get
ting authority from the committee to report
the bill without this proviso, and substan
tially the same as in the case of Virginia,
Mississippi, and Texas, with an amendment
repealing the law prohibiting the raising of
militia forces in certain Southern States. It
was not, however, until the 23d that General
Butler condescended to report the bill in tnia
shape, and yetterday afternoon the House
came to a vote and the question was put at
rest. "
The Senate substitute for the original
House bill provided practically for remanding
the State to military rule, until an election
could be held on the l.rth of November next.
The measure which received the assent of the
House yesterday simply deolares that "tho
State of Georgia is entitled to representation
in Congress," but with the proviso that
nothing in the act shall be construed to
deprive the people of the State of the right
to participate in an election for members of
the Legislature at the time fixed by the
present constitution. Tacked on to this is a
provision repealing the acts which prohibit
the organization of the militia in tho States
of Georgia, Mississippi. Texas, and Virginia.
In this shape which was a combination of a
substitute for the bill as reportod by the
Reconstruction Committee offered by
Mr. Dawes, and certain amendments
thereto proposed by Messrs. Farnsworth and
Diokey the bill commanded the assent of
the nouge, and the approval even of Butler
himself. The latter gentleman at last yielded
to the general sentiment of the House, for
the sake of "conciliation,'' as he claimed; and
as the State constitution provides for an elec
tion next fall, the Bingham proviso has prac
tically prevailed and Butler sustained an out-
and-out defeat.' The measure thus agreed
upon by the House presents nothing more
than technical points of disagreement with
that sent to the House by the Senate in April
last, and the concurrence of the latter is
almost a matter of certainty. The only cause
for regret is the trifling manner in which
General Butler has acted throughout the
whole business, which could and should have
been settled as it was yesterday full two
months ago.
And now, supposing that the Senate acts
promptly and favorably upon the bill, the
question arises as to the manner in which
Georgia will be restored to representation in
Congress. Two sets of Senators are ready to
claim seat3 in the upper house Hon.
Joshua Hill and Hon. Homer V. Miller,
elected by the Legislature after the negro
members had been cant out; and R. II.
Whitely (for the term ending March 4, 1871),
Foster Blodget (for the term commencing at
that date), and II. P. Farron (for the term end
ing March 4, 1373. elected in February last,
after the State government had been a second
time reconstructed. During the Fortieth
Congress, although the Senate refused to
admit Messrs. Hill and Miller to seats, the
House didadmittho.se who claimed to be
elected, and they retained their seats until
the end of the term. Claiming to have been
elected also for the full term succeeding, they
applied for admission to the Forty-first Con.
gress and were refused. It is probable that
they will again present their claims to seats
on this basis, but the chances are that the
House will hold them to have been elected for
the short term only, and that Georgia will be
without a voice in the lower house of Con
gress until another election can be held.
Bobu: The Washington despatches pub
lished in the morning papers state that pri
vate advices received in that city from
Andrew G. Curtin speak encouragingly of his
expected entire restoration to health, which
was so impaired by. his arduous official ser
vices during the Rebellion. In order to en
tirely restore his health he will leave his post
of duty at St. Petersburg on the first of July
for the purpose of spending two months at
the warm springs of Germany. It is very
sad to think that so many of the stay-at-home
rangers should have suffered in . health
through their arduous.ser vices in suppressing
the Rebellion. Mr. Curtin has been in the
habit of issuing bulletins about his physical
condition ever since he went out of office,
and it is gratifying to know that although his
improvement has been slow it is likely to be
permanent, for really we are rather tired of
hearing that he is weak but improving, and
candidly we do not think his case is half as
bad as has been made out. If Curtin had
lost his health through arduous services in
the swamps of the Cbickahominy, we would
feel for him a respectful sympathy, but as his
comfortable arm-chair at Harmburg was not
a very unhealthy base of operations, we doubt
whether Li efforts for the suppression of the
rebellion were altogether responsible' for the
present weakness of his physical condition.
Everybody that is anybody in Europe goes
to the German bath. or fashionable resorts
during the summer mouth, aud it in likely
that a desire, not to.be out of the fashion
quite as much as bad health ' influenced Mr.
Curtin to ask a leave of absence for a couple
of months, i - J ' . I '
In connection with tho above the N. Y.
World says editorially: ,,.-,..! I
"From fcit." Petersburg to-riar we have a most
touching telegram. Columbia throughout her
length and breaith will wall to har that tho health
of her beloAed Minister at the Court of the Csar
Mr. Cnrtln, of Pennsylvania Is not do good an sie
could have wished It to be. Ills Excellency seems to
be out ol splrlta.and he has been most kindly invited
bv the Emperor of all the Russian to accom
pany himself and his court to the warm springs of
Germany. In the midst, however, of his personal
piineringg onr envoy has preserved a vivid regard to
the Interests of his constituents, which Induces him
to notify all whom It may concern, and particularly
the Iron manufacturers of Pennsylvania, that the
Russian Government Intends to purchase a number
of articles In the United States to bo fabricated
by American skill and Ingenuity. The mood in
which this notice is given reminds one of the
heroic woman, famous in the annals of Pere-la-Ohalse,
who used her husband's tombstone to an
nounce that, notwithstanding his lamented decease,
the business in which he had earned his reputation
would be carried on bv his weeping widow at the old
stand and on the old termB."
