Erom fifteen to twenty thousand European immigrants per week, chielly from Germany and Ireland, continne to be landed at Castle Garden, the bulk of the German element luoviDg on at once to the far West, and the ' Irish element remaining mostly here and in other cities of the East. Considerable acces sions to our population also continne to be made from European shipments to Quebec, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Charleston, end New Orleans. At the same time, from the New England States and the central j Northern States, even to Illinois, and from our seabonrd Southern States down to Lou isiana, there is a steady stream of emigration J to the westward of young and vigorous native Americans, hopeful ef fortune or distinction, or both, in some part of all that vast region of our new Status and Territories west of the Mississippi to .the Pacific Ocean, from the British Possessions north down to the plains of Mexico. Thus, since the suppression of our late Southern rebellion, from immigrants from our older States and from Europe, the increase in the population and wealth of Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, and Texas has been really astonishing. Arkansas, with natural advantages of soil, climate and pro ductions, and cheap lands equal to any of these States, remains comparatively at a standstill, because she is deficient in local railway facilities and railway connections with the great through lines to New York. The great increase ofthe population of Texas, with some accessions from Germany, is mainly due to immigrants from the older Southern Slates, drawn to the "Lone Star" by the attractions of her cheap and fine cot ton and sugar lands and her splendid prairie ranges for the cheap raising of thousands of cattle, . horses, etc. But, excepting Texas, the heavy currents of emigration from the States to the eastward and from Europe have set into and are still setting into the new States and Territories of the Northwest, this side the great plains, and beyond them in the new mining Territories and States of Mon tana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Washington, Oregon, Nevada, and California. Even Dacotah, on the line of the Upper Missouri, is thriving, and Arizona, in spite of the Apache Indians, is beginning to boast in her territorial capital of sewing machines, Sunday schools, hooped skirts, pianos, newspapers, billiard saloons and sherry cobblers. The gold and Bilver mines of these new States and Territories tell the story of the tidal waves of immigrants from the East which are rapidly building up prosperous communities in deserts heretofore pronounced worthless, if not absolutely uninhabitable. The discovery of these mines made the build ing of the Pacific Railroad a work of magio hardly less wonderful than the miraculous achievement of the lamp of Aladdin; and the moving masses of men, women, and children to the marvellous regions opened to the world by that road remind us of the migra tory nations in times past from Asia into Europe. And still these masses of moving nationalities are .drifting into those new gold and silver mines and to the lands of the Upper Mississippi and its tributaries, whose abounding crops of wheat and corn and con venient railroads make these lands more attractive to men with families than the silver mountains of Nevada or the gold gulches of Colorado. But south of Pennsylvania and the Ohio river, from the Atlantio westward beyond the Mississippi, there are the most inviting regions on the ' Continent or in the world to Europeans and Northern men in search of good and cheap living for themselves and comfortable homes f or their children. Dela ware and Northern Maryland, the whole of Virginia and West Virginia, the elevated and wholesome western divisions of North and South Carolina, and the mountainous divisions of Northern Georgia and Alabama, and the northern part of Mississippi, and the whole of the fruitful States of Tennes see and Kentucky offer cheap farms, sure crops, and fair prices to the European or ' Yankee" settler; and they offer, too, a climate where the frosts of winter touch but lightly, and where the heats of summer are never so severe as under the boasted Bkies of Italy. From North Carolina southward along the seacoast to Louisiana, and extending back a hundred miles,- more or less, we have a belt of low lands and sandy pine barrens, a region sultry, swampy, and malarious. But this belt embraces the most famous corn, cotton, and rice lands of the Atlantio States, its climate. however, which is really good for the Afrioan race, is deadly to the European. That which in the air is poison to the blood of the Euro pean is nutriment to the African. Hence, in the course of time these seaboard lowlands will undoubtedly be chiefly occupied by the African and Chinaman, while the more salu brious districts we have described will be almost exclusively occupied by the white races. But why is it, with all the attractions we have suggested, that these inviting districts ot tne bout.li, abounding in the wealth of fer tile fields, forests, mines, and never-failiner streams of water power, and possessing a gemai ana wnoieaome ouniaie, ana witnal a fair supply or railway facilities wbv is it that the fair and fertile lands in these inviting latitudes still go begging ? How is it that the great currents of emigration from Europe and the North sweep by the South to the far West? The Western gold and silver mines do not wholly answer these questions, The unsettled and still repelling condition of Southern society, as between whites and blacks, late masters and late slaves, ex-rebels and Unionists, native Southern politicians and Northern carpet-baggers, is the explanation The life of a man is still subject to too many chances of death in the South, and the chaos resulting from a revolution tearing np the old order of society by the roots is still too apparent ; and hence there is no general movement of Europeans or Northerners to fill np the waste places of the South. But tLis state of things cannot last much longer, and, with the full re-establibhmentif law and order, tne spiencua bargains now ottered in Southern lands, mines, mills, etc., will be gone. . This, then, is the time for Europeans and Northern men to secure possessions in the South for a bagatelle, which will be a fortune to their children. Men of the "same locality, ith families in the North or in Europe, by combining in a settlement, can at once in the Houtn make a community of their own and a little homemarket, and Southern land owners fchould encourage this policy of settlements in communities and villages. TOE INTERNAL REVENUE BUREAU. From the K. T. Timet. ' ' , ! The Tax kill, as reported ' to the Senate, confers - upon the President - disoretionary power to consolidate revenue districts, and thus to lessen the expenses of the internal service. A separate bill is before the ITonse, with the sanction of the Ways and Means Com mittee, providing for the reorganization of the service the diminution of its number of officers, the settlement of disputed questions of authority or reconstruction, the abolition of informers and spies as parts of the Bystem, and generally the adaptation of the bureau to the public needs as affected by the contem plated reduction. of. taxes. It is lurtner understood tnat, in connection with the Tax bill, Mr. Sherman proposes to convert the Internal Revenue Bureau into a department, and to invest the Commissioner with the power and dignity of a member of the Cabine.t. As between the merely permissive clause of the Senate bill and the mandatory provi sions of Mr. Schenck's bill, there ought not to be much hesitation on the part of Con gress. It is not enough that authority to sim plify and reform the internal revenue organi zation is conferred. The necessity for sim plification and reform is so obvious that both should be made imperative. A large saving might have been enecteu bad the tax list remained unchanged. . J. he districts have always been far too numerous, and the num ber of ofiicers has always been far too great for the work to be performed. With the list largely reduced, the duty of instituting sweeping yet judicious changes becomes more urgent. Ihe merit ot Mr. Schencks measure, as compared with the proposition before the Senate, is that its enactment will secure the desired retrenchment. The fact that it will dispose oT many ques tions of interpretation and administration is another consideration in favor of the House bill. Hitherto the law has left too much to the judgment of the Commissioner, whose rulings have furnished ground of discontent. There have been many arbitrary decisions, and some not altogether reasonable. A scheme 'of reorganization which will not only construct afresh the machinery of the bureau, but will, as far as possible, insure its smooth and acceptable working, ought not to bs de layed. It will be a proper, even a neoessary, supplement to the Tax bill, if it become law in anything like its present shape. Whether at such a time, and with such a prospect, a project is acceptable for elevating the Commissioner into a Cabinet officer may well be doubted, lhere were reasons during Mr. McCulloch's management of the Treasury for rendering the Commissioner in a larger degree independent . of the Secretary, but these reasons operate no longer. The con flict between Republicanism and Johnsonism is happily over; and except under excep tional circumstances, a concentration of authority is preferable, as a matter of eco nomy and efficiency, to its subdivision. What ought to be a conclusive argument against Mr. Sherman s idea is, however, the diminu tion of labor and importance which the Inter nal Revenue Bureau will experience when the new Tax bill goes into effect. Even had the income tax been retained, the changes wrought by the Senate bill would be very ex tensive. But if to these changes be added the relinquishment of the tax on incomes striking the total amount of tax reduction on the internal revenue it is Apparent that the magnitude of the changes within the ser vice will so lessen the work and responsibility of the Commissioner as to render any eleva tion of his status unseemly and inexpedient. If a simple commissionership was sufficient when the internal taxes yielded a very large proportion of the national revenue, it would be absurd to convert the bureau into a de partment, and the Commissioner into a mem ber of the Cabinet, at a moment when the internal tax system assumes much less im portance. . - There will doubtless still be need for energy, intelligence, and executive ability at the head of , the service, and integrity and efficiency in the corps of subordinates ; but there would seem to be no justification for the creation of a new Cabinet position, and one that would, to some extent, infringe npon the responsibilities and duties at present associated with the Secretaryship of the Treasury. - - TnE LAST DAYS OF SLAVERY. From the S. T. Tribune. . Possibly Senator Sumner's indignant reso lution may not hasten the overthrow of slavery in the Spanish colonies; but we shall be glad to have the sentiment of the country upon tnis important Buoiect expressed in un mistakable terms, and having given human bondage on the western Hemisphere its fatal wound by the liberation of our own slaves. we are naturally anxious to be in at the death when the last remnants disappear from other portions of the land. In the Spanish colo nies, notwithstanding ' the ' paltering 'ot the uortes, the end is plainly in sight. Procras tination is the characteristic vioe of the Span iard. To every appeal for aotion or reform hiatepyiB,Manatia, via nana," "to-morrow!" Thus the simple and easy course of immediate ' liberation r proposed by Cas telar is rejected, and even Moret's scheme of gradual emancipation, so gradual that the present generation would not feel it, and the next would hardly reap its benefits, is post poned to the next session. But bpauisu emancipation is already . going forward, is nait accomplished, indeed, without the inter vention of the Cortes. It is only in Cuba that any large number of slaves is held, and there the insurrection is giving the blacks a liberty which it will be impossible eyer to take away from them again. An act of aboli tion from the Cortes would be little more than a graceful and dignified submission to the inevitable. Mr. Sumner's resolution may not hasten that submission; indeed, u it do. Spain will have laid aside her characteristic pride; but the submission must come, and must come soon. , , In Brazil there are also indications of the dawn. A bill is now before the Chambers oro vidua C for the , liberation of all children born of slave parents after this date. We have been deceived before with Brazilian promises of emancipation, and perhaps it is top soon to rejoice. Two years ago an elaborate schema of emancipation was announced as being ac tually adopted, but a few woeks brought us the news that the plan had been defeated, and the liberal ministry overthrown, while the conservatives remnants of the old slave traders came back to power under ' the bigoted reactionist Itaborahy. This vete ran statesman is one of the last from whom we should look for any liberal reform, and the bill now under disoussion would not natur ally receive the support of the Government. Still, if the converyatives should change front on this question, they would only repeit a tuaaouuvre which they tried with temporary success some years ago. When the pressure from within and without for the extirpation of the contraband slave tralho became ure sistible, the conservatives who were then in office, rather than submit to defeat, turne around npon their own party and crushed the villanous buRineRs with which that party was universally identified. , Perhaps they may pur sue the same tactics again. The growth of a popular : feeling . in ' favor of . emancipation is unmistakable. When the Brazilians took pos session of Asuncion they deemed it politio to go through the form of deolaring slavery at an end in Paraguay; and the people, who for got that slavery did not exist in Paraguay, applauded with delight. When Count d'Ea returned from the wars, the song of emanci pation mingled in the proans of his triumph. The speech from the throne has time and again uttered the popular aspirations for the obliteration of the foulest blot upon Brazi lian civilization. Perhaps the time has already come. At any rate the day of libera tion cannot be far on. LIGHT ON LIFE INSURANCE. From the AV 1'. Sun. The facts respecting the paid-up life in surance policy intended for ueneral lirant are gradually coming to the surface. We are informed by the Evening VontthtX the scheme was first started by General Horace Porter, one of the military secretaries at the White House, and Mr. James Wheeler, his brother-in-law. Wheeler, it seems, is employed as an agent to procure business for the Equitable Life Company, and as such receives a hand some commission for every policy that is issued upon his solicitation. A paid-up life policy of ifr.0,000, which would cost $27,000 in cash, would give to Mr. Wheeler about t'lHOO as commission. Accordingly, General Porter is said to have written and put into Wheeler's hands a letter calling upon friends of the President to subscribe the Bum of $27,000 for this purpose; and with this letter Mr. Wheeler went about among some promi nent Republican politicians and office holders, endeavoring to obtain their subscriptions. In this city, as we understand, he succeeded in procuring subscriptions to" the amount of $8000; and, as the JUvcning l'ost states, he had also realized $ 10,000 from office-holders and others in Philadelphia. Among the subscribers in this city we learn that the lion. Moses 11. urinnell, Collector of the Port, was down for the liberal contri bution of $1000. Mr. Henry Clews, the hand some and wealthy banker of Wall street, was also down for $ 1000, and some other officials and politicians of various ranks had signed the subscription paper. The Hon. Thomas Murphy, however, though he had been ap plied to, had not signed. General Jones, the Postmaster, was mentioned in a memoran dum in the hands of Wheeler, and the sub ject was about to be urged upon his attention when the publication of the scheme by the independent press arrested its further pro gress, it was expected that Ueneral J ones would furnish at least flOOO. Mr. Cornell, the Surveyor of the Port; General Merritt, the Naval Officer; and Judge Folger, the Sub- Treasurer, had neither of them shown any willingness to contribute, though we dare say they had been applied to. Some contri butions had also been promised by subordi nate officials, and there is no doubt that the whole sum of $ 27,000 would have been made up ere this, and the policy put into the hands of General Grant, but for the untimely noise made about the matter by the meddlesome newspapers. The question necessarily arises whether General Grant had himself given encourage ment to this precious operation of his secre tary and secretary's brother-in-law. On this point the only positive evidence is afforded by a correspondent of the Sun, who stated in a letter dated the 20th inst. and published on Tuesday last, that when General Porter lately passed through the ' city, he personally as sured some of the gentlemen concerned that the President not only took an interest in the subject, but that he was disturbed at the slowness with which! the subscription was made up. In regard to this point, however, we have no other testimony than this allega tion of our correspondent; but it is somewhat confirmed by the fact that the subscription was started on the strength of a letter by General Porter commending the undertaking to the President's friends. Is it likely that in his intimate relation to President Grant General Porter would have presumed to do this unless he had reason to believe that it would be agreeable to his principal ? General Grant's fondness for presents has been too often and too conspicuously evinced to be a matter of any doubt. . Nor is there any reason why, after , having received houses, horses, libraries, - almost every possible form of donation, and after having shown his appreciation of . his benefactors by appointing bo many of them to valuable offices, the President should look with dis favor upon an effort to bestow upon him an additional testimonial. At any rate, it is for him and for his secretary to show that this scandalous undertaking was Bet on toot without his sanction; and it will be difficult to make people believe that if the policy had been made np and tendered to him, he would have rejected the compliment. . i DEFEAT OF THE INCOME TAX. From the A". 1'. World. LauDeo! For once we can use the lan guage of thanksgiving and congratulation on the action of the Senate. On Friday, by the strong vote of 34 to 23 a two-thirds majo ritythe Senate struck the income tax from the nouse bill. This vote is a deathblow to that odious imposition, "hateful beyond all others because it is unjust beyond all others." The fears expressed by Senator Sherman may prove to be well-founded, that the loss of the income tax will defeat the whole bill; the House having inserted the inoome tax by a vote of three to one! But "all the tears lie in an onion" which Democrats will shed over such a catastrophe. Whether the bill passes or fails, the income tax is dead, dead, dead ! Readers must not confuse the repeal of a tax with its renewal. The inoome tax does not need to be repealed; it suffices for its extinc tion that an act is not passed for its reiui posi tion. By the law enacting it, it expires in the year 1870. It can be revived and con tinued only by the passage of a new law. The vote of the Senate on Friday renders it cer tain that no such law will be passed. The tax bill may, or may not, go through without it: but it will not be passed with it. Senator Conkling, who, to his credit, has resolutely fought the income tax, stated that he had information respecting the sentiments of members of the House which led him to sup pose that the House would not insist on this feature of the bill. . Mr. Sherman thinks that the rejection of the income tax makes it necessary to throw out also the provisions relating to the tariff. The bill purports to be a bill for the reduc tion of taxes, and if the whole revenue from income is given up, Mr. Sherman is of opin ion that the Government cannot afford to make any reductions in the revenue from customs. But we prefer no changes rather than such alterations as are proposed in Air. Schenck's tail tariff, with its monstrous Bes semer steel job, telegraph wire job, nickel job, and the other corrupt jobs Bought to be veiled under a reduction of the duties on tea, coffee, and sugar, and the putting of certain specified drugs in the free list. We shall be I 1 if willing to see the whole jrickety structure, in- oorae-tax and all. tumble into ruins together. At any rate, the country" is sate against a re newal of the unpopular ' unjust,, and .uncon stitutional income tax. The defeat of this bad tax furnishes a new illustration of the want of -respect for Presi dent Grant s opinions and recommendations on financial subjects. In his annual mes sage he asked Congress to continue the in come tax, as did also his financial subordi nates, Secretary Boutwell and the Uouimi. Bioner of Internal Revenue. The President is justly treated as a novice in such matters, whose views are not worth regarding.
