• nu ritCOffiE TAXI
.
a great ado is , being made in,many
localities about the income tax, as if
it'itere - ft - griobtlitni lifigenThara 13
bear by thcsinpon whom ' ik;iii` iml
posed. - - But strange to say, the large
era man's in,le tat is ~fixed, the
"..": ter ablelm 2.4ri4e-pay it. This •is
not - the miss Trith'other tans: - - Moat
',,, mot all Of o):Ir taxes are indirectly
paid by, the tooliejily: the consuming
and laboring (*Sea . Thus . ths tax
on'allfavi material used in mann4e
turo3, as sell as that imposed on the
mannfactnred article,' inpaid- by the
consumer. This being the case, erh
man'sp7oportion being also very
smut, no one thinks of urging' bon
gress to modify Or-repeal such taxea.
-But the r:tel:me-tax strikes a class of
es iv
people ho love' money—who live
for its ccumnlation—who worship
it as a_ werfid deity--42ndwho have
no d * i es iliseonnected from money.
These are the men who are assessed
lot s income tax.. They can afford !,43,
pay all chat islevied; but, vhene*er
they'.-likve a thence, three out • of ,
every five of these men cheat the_
Goven*tent. They are hilly able to
pay thiS tax, and it is a just demand
on the,;part Of the - povernn2ent i ,
Divert:hlm, it is not honestly paid:
those. upon whom th6 - legy falls are ,
of a class who wield powerful inlinH
en&Er—whq, control the press, bench,
and representative poSitions=whoi
are-powerful in finances and promi
nent in bushiess, every man of whom
can meet this responsibility without
feeling it in a pecuniary sense. But
is this the case with the great bulk
of taxation Jevied by the , Govern ;
merit? Of course it is not ;"-and,
therefore, if we are to have a revisal
or IL repeal of items of taxation; let
us begin where the burden iahetivi
est—let us take the loads from the
backs of the laboring consume* and
not facilitate _the money=making of
the rich. A man who has an income
of $5,000, or $3,000, can eerie*
pay the tax now levied thereon.. If
-. other taxes are repealed, he will
share the relief alike with all ; classes
of the community; and as the income
,tax at once proves . the ability of all
upon whom it-falls to pay it, it comes
with ahad grace from that class tti
growl about its. levy. We are, of,
course, in fav9,of the repeal of tax
ation as fast es the Gove*ment - can
do without' it,liut let' that relief be
affordexl men of limited means,' who
have no more -than\ will . supply the
ordinary necessaries of their families`,
before it is insured to men of prince
ly fortunes. The income tax is just,
falls on those who can afford to ; pay .
it, and is the last which ought to be
'•repealed. I i

mission,,Land a Tax Common, with
hill power to tak4 possession e l f tir

these contmissionit' would swarm in

backed by the money, of tax-payers

could, hy fraud, corriiption, importa

• IMPORTANT Dscamor.—A' doeidion
hai been lately rendered in the coun
ty court of Erie; in - relation to .the
liabilities of lease holders • which is
`very, important' to, persons aboUt
_to
'sign leases for the use of'tenements.
According to that decision the les
`sees of tenements are liable for the
rent upon saidrproperty• for the full
term of the' lease even though Ahe
tenement (should -be destroyed - by
fire, at any time during the existence
of the lease,, and in such, leases as
do not contain the " file clause," the
lessee is liable for the wit of rebuild
ing. The case referred to is as fol
lows : On the lst of April, 1467,
Xessrs. 3losiasos and Dilemmas leas
ed the store building they used as a
provision warehouse, situated on: the
corner of French and Fifth streets,
of this Rev. Glimmer. A. LYON, D. D.,
for five years, at $l,OOO per .year.
The building witsiinimred, by ' the
owner, fOr $B,OOO. -Eightemmonths
after its occupancy by !amuses dk
Doimoas the building burned down.
They paid the rent proportionately
_due te„the date when there was no
longer any building- to use ;. but up=
on the lease—time of the ordinary
printed lind—suit was brought to
recover rent for the three and a half
years of the unexpired leaSe, at $l,-
.000'per annum. For the plaintiff it
was shown that One or more ewes
had been decided which rendered
the , leaseholder liable, even though
the tenement he leased had become
untenable by means of some accident
against whieb,he could not provide.
In the caic just quoted, the jury ad
judged that Messrs. MourasoN &
DINSMORE ahead - pay' three months'
rent, with interest, amounting , to
about $2O, and pasts' of the suit.
Persons about to sign leased had bet
ter look over them closely, as the or
iiinitry- method in. which they are
drawn is (if the: holder is responsi
ble) virtually an insurance of the
owner against any loss, by lightning,
fire, or any other Calamity, while the
lease gives uo benefits, besides on
occupancy fully counterbalanced by
the rental, withont rii3ks. -
-Frail s Sown Drascroas:—Tho
Senate last Week passed a bill allow
ing women over the age of twentyz.
ono years, to be elected school direct=
ors. This is a practical step by the
Senate, which if the House endorse,
and it becomes a law will place-Penn
sylvania in prominent position on the
question of woman's rightss -
But apart from the question if wo
men's rights this would be a good
law. Women play a prominent part
in the education of the youth of the .
State; and though they receive small
er wages than men for the same ser
vices, they are, as aride, not inferior
to men in their qualifications for the
work of teaching to men. One of the
real wrongs to women not only here
but all over the country consists in
their receiving smaller wages for the
same services than men do. This in
justice is particularly apparent in the
teachers' profession, and; ought to be
abolished. If women should become
school directors we might expect4his
wrong to be remedied at least, and it
Would be the entering wedge:to split
asunder
. the bundle of prejudices
which.exist against wqmen in many
Other vocations. The management
of schools would be better, too,
we have no dOubt, if intelligent -wo
men took the place of men as School
directors; for every body knows that
fiery careless as well as ignorant men
are chosen to perform tlie duty of
school directors 'in Mani districts.
We are anxious Co see the influence .
of conscientious and intelligent moth
era felt in our school boards, and
hope that this bill will become a law.

His Very pr.sie.nce carried light and sunshine
with it, and many, very many living witnesses
now in our mkist .ain.tesixty to his ooibess,
his generous sympathy, his unbounded gene
rosily, his open fund to *mist the poor, hia_pro
fossional services freely given where be 6iuld
have no hope of tee or reward—all springing
from and prompted by his noble, generous na
ture.
Wealth and self-iggrindizement were not
the objects of his pursuit. All the powers of
his noble heart were directed to promote the
happiness and well being of others. In the dis
charge of laii professional duties he never spar
ed hUmself, hut male his way through dark
ness, storm and flood, and ellen, veg. often,
risked his own lire in hh anxiety to reheve the
distress of his fellow men: Possessing the
clearest perceptionk and a sound hidgment, be
was enabled to arras at accurate eouclusions,
and when once his position was taken, it was
always held and defended with great ftrimincu.
And while be yielded to others the right to
hold and etprees their own views, be , was al
ways the fearless champion .of truth; and the
antagonist of error and wrong wherever found:
In ha profession, in pciities, et religion. in ea
oral with with thefellow men, bit advo

bent to be right, without eascillationor com
promise. Absolute perfection is not (claimed
for any mortal ft ; but we" claim for him purity
of fora em pieta. and an -
