TINE INCOME TAX.
It has long been felt that the very first ,of
the pecuniary burdens of, the late war which
shoidd be taken from the, shoulders of the
people :is the income tax, During the 'war,
ail burdens were cheerfully borne by those
who loved their , country and desired ,her
triumph over the re.bellion, but now that peace
Is restored, and the tide of national prosperity
bas again fully set In; there is an impatient
desire that this ',particular tax should be
abolished. ~ •
This demand has been uniformly resisted,
for the very natural reason that :the income tax
yields a very large part of the national re
sources, and tlieonly concesSion that has been
made has been to increase the exemption from
SGOO to, ,$4190. This Worded a very con-.
siderable relief, but:the burden of the...income
tax still presses heavily on a very large ' 'class' of
the community. • ,
The :North American makes a very jadiciouS
suggestion which we unite in urging upon the
early attention of Congress. The income tax
cannot be taken.off. all at once. But it should
be raised gradually, and. upon such a principle
as will relieve successive i classes in the order
of their ability to ; pay it: The present sugges
tion is to increase the.exemption to s2,ooo,and
to reduce the rate itO three_ per. cent.' It is
argued soundly, the .arguMent being based
upon the experience of the'. Government in
collecting the whisky..tai, that the revenues
will not suffer seriously, and probably not at
all, by this concession. ,'The temptation, to
evasion 'and fraud is diminished and flu. truer
and larger returns will be made, The fact that
only six or seven millions of gallons of whisky
paid the two-dollar tax during the last year of
its imposition, while the revenue is now
coming in at the rate of eighty millions,clearly
proves that it was as wise for the sake of pub-.
lic morals as for, the sake of public revenue,
to take off the excessive tax and, substitute
loWer One. /
The Republican party has always legislated
in the interest of the masses of the people, and,
in the adjustment.of the taxes • made necessary
by the' rebellion, every possible regard was paid
to the principle that laid them lightest and
/east where they calla be least easily borne.
At the outset, the $6OO exemption was made
and as soon as it was felt to' be possible the
exemption was extended to $l,OOO. The time
has now, come to ypen the gate of escape:frona
thiS income tax a little higher, and extend the
exemption to the next lowest class. This
cl•itagewould not only be a most popular_one,.
but would be a safe and *itilielous one and we
trust that it will be made at the next session of
OrNogress.
Tbme is one point in the argument of our
excellent contemporary from which we wholly
dissent. It recognizes the publication of the
income, returns as a valuable agency in keeping
pp.llT.revenue. The North Amerletoz S4,R-
t. must be remembered that if therelie
,greatt i eniptations to evasion of this tax, thete
Are also great inducements to pay it. To amen
iur burine6s the published income lists are a
utter of credit not to be despised by any one,
.and . if the [revenue be defrauded by false re
undervaluing the incomes of some,there
is,a)arge c..vs of men who regularly return
la.i;per incomes than they actually have, in or
derAo keep t i tp their credit. In society lari
vate.eitizens do this to a large extent. These
factsAuvve long been notorious."
It is. l ukadeubt.e4ly true that there are men who
will pay lax; for the sake of cuttinglarge figures
befoteethe.pablie, but we cannot believe that
theseiiittle , tecw.fqrm a 4, large class." ' But
whethe,r,this is true or not, we cannot lAA re-
Bard akeyublication.of the incomes of private
indiVidnals,acone. of the worst features of the
whole business. liino country
,but this has
such a mactice .ever been tolerated. Ev
erym here hitt here -tlte' right of a
tram • to privacy m his own affairs
is fully respected, .and his 'returns of his busi
ness or private .incomeare pnaperly regarded as
entirely confidential. And E 0 ' it, should — be
here.— Not _only has A no buitiness . whatever
to kiiow. what B's Mutsu is, but, what is still
more to, the purpose, the published lists give
him 'only the most uncertain, and generally in
correct inforination on the subject. B may have
a very 'sknall taxable' .income, but a verylarge

accordingly.
To a Much larger , class' than' that • which
courts the,notorietyorpUblishing exaggerated
returns, these lists area source of the utmost
annoyance ilOytiPeatioll. , They are felt to
be a most unnecessary exposure,of , private af
fairs, and a breach of confidence between the
Government and the*ple. It May be,:and
is'a very foolish pride that shrink: from ex

believe there_is no.law calling for the ; publica

glad if our new Collectors would set the

few men to retatrn a little too much, they very
sorely tempt a great many other men to' re

A DUMB ORACLE.
.(1-stillno-volee-comes-from-the-oracies-of
the Age office, telling us of, the genteel Demo
:Crate opinion of the Democratic nominations.
'Ahern remains upon the ticket, and dreams of
:the ~emoluments, the honors, and the, opportu
nities. for helping 'suffering .friends : , offered by
the coveted Clerkship of Quarter Sessions; Stew
art, too, holds his nomination Whilelte mixes
;drinks and cherishes hopes; and Hurley thinks
of, the promise of :the Fdurth Ward .and Mc-.
.I!ilullitt's Murderous threats, and doubts not
that he will climb to office. And the Age is
silent. It is.a fierce blusterer against Grov,erner
Geary; a savage hitter at Judge Read; yigdr
'ous denottucer of President Grant; a valiant
assailant of helplessnegyoes ; and a very Captain
Boabdil when Gen. Butler is discussed; but it,
is as gentle:as:a lamb when Mr, McMullin and
his friends,* ,be denounced. It does not
even "roar yOn. as gently as any sucking dove."
-It -does .not - roar at all or - even - -nutter..
It cannot defend McMullin, his friends and
cohorts, and it is:afraid to denounce them. It
;knows' that John P. Ahem is no more fit to be
trusted in the Quarter Sessions Court, outside
of the (leek, than any, other Ulan who stands on
its records indicted for felony; and it is aware
of the fact thatevery decent man , in the corn- .
munity is indignant at Democratic Alderman
:310.1ullin's threat' to organize mob law and
•murder in this City in‘belmlf of the Democracy
on election day; and :yet it remains
quiet, ignoring the very. existence of the city
ticket in its editorial, columns; and excluding
McMullin's cowardly threats from its local re
ports. Now it makei no particular difference,
as far as theresult of the election is concerned,
whether the Age discusSes these matters .or
not. • The people have made up theirminds
and have. determined .to crush the outlaws
'utterly ;, but a journal that is so . ready to lec
ture its neighbors - upon propriety, and to read
to
, other editors' rurVeydropsical lectures upon
deportment, ought •at leaSt to be consistent
enough to say' a few words inbehalf of law,
and order, and in favor of the nomination of
decent men upon . its ticket, . It ought to do
this even if it knows that its influence with its
party, is so small that an expression ofits
opinion will not produce the slightest change
for the 'better. •
We'learn with muck 'satisfaction that the
Philharmonic SocietY has determined to begin
the winter campaign vigorously and with an
earnest effort to win for itself a secure plake
in popular faVOr. It was feared' during the
summer that-the apathy of some of the mem
.,
hers would becomeinfectious r and that a con
sequent want of interest in the society, among
its most important constituents; would result
n its failure to
.accomplish anything- during
he coming winter. But there were some en
thusiastic men in the . ranks Who fletermined
that this should not be,and'op afresh start has
been taken, and several musical gentlemen
of the highest standing have been
nominated for the Offices, with
pledges to labor valiantly in its behalf
The character of the men named is a sufficient
guarantee of the success of the Philharmonic,
and so we may look for two •or . " three good
concerts from it this season. Those given last
Winter were excellent, but they were not sup
ported by the public as generously as • they.
should have been. We hPpe to have popular
indifference to, this useful organization chaired
intoo - deep interest, and we are sure that this
can be done, if the Philharmonic fulfils the
good promise of its first year, and gives only
first-class concerts.- The New-York society of
the same name is a great favorite, and. there is
no reason why oms may_not be, when_it is
better known.
This has been a week of sensations. Every
daY we have had to record some fresh horror
in the shape of murder, natural convulsion, or
'unavoidable disaster, until we have an aggro ?
gate which is'appalling - .' ..First, there was the
'suicide of a miserable ',assassin in Idoyamen-

there was an explosion upon the Erie

so that for a long time we shall have to au

The death of nom John, ell will excite very

closed his argument this morning, occupying but about
ten minutes.
. . -
Ex-Judge Strong, on behalf of the contestants, next
. addressed the court. Be said : Ido not propose to cuter
into the details of the evidence in reference to the several
divisions attacked. That hat been done most thoroughly
and lucidly by Mr. Mann. •He has also furnished to the
court an analysis of the evidence which will, I appre
hend, greatly assist the courtin ascertaining what facts
have been proved and where the evidence -is to be
found that establishes these facts. Our friends on the
' other side have presented their facts, which either lead
to a mitigation of the severity of the allegations made
against them, or remove them altogether. lam content
to leave the case where the counsel has placed it. I can•
not but consider myself fortunate in being relieved of
going through the evidence in this case. I have not been
accustomed tee examine into the mysteries of an election
in some of the Wards of this city. I hope I will never
again have occasion to investigate such a
mass of fraud and _wrong I. and want of
faith as is presented in this case. I
. think there are certtrin facts in this case substantially ,
established. It will be found that to no less than eight
of the divisions the rule was to allow persons to vote
who were not upon the list oftaxablee, and•to vote with- •
out insisting upon the vonehers, as the law requires,and
in sonic eases this was se large as to amount to one-fourth
of the entire troll. Many were marked "voted" who did
not vote at all ,thus showing that the election officers not
only did not discharge their duty. but they voluntarily
-destroyed the evidencowltiob.would -enable the Court to ,-
decide the fairereelz+ of tire poll. There were also large num
bers of personatioits rued challenges d idreganled. What is
to be done in this case. Our friends say, "purge the
polls—strike off the illegal votes." or, as Mr. Hirst says,
esepardte the wheat from the chaff." This is impossible.
There is no seine with meshes fine enough to separate
tire truth from the falsehood in this case. The only cor
rect rule is that where fraud is committed it shall cer
tainly inure to the loss of the party•trho committed it,
and it is time for thisTourt to take a firm_ stand in this
matter, especially after the warning given last year,
holding that no poll is entitled to enter

Drente of the law. The polls should be excluded where
there liens been a receipt of votes.- not on the list of taxa
bles Without requiring a voucher. The list is the foun
dation of the right trine citizen, and it is no hardship to
insist that the law shall he. complied with. The provi
sions of the act are not directory, as contended• by the
other side-, but are compulsory. It is said "YOU diefrtu
ellitte all the citizens 'lyy this course." No, it is the
faithless conduct of the election officers that disfran
chises the citizens. This is not strange nor peculiar.
We sometinieri lose our money in a bank becauss of the

the same rule will apply. We complain that in eight of
these election districts there sees no election such as the
law requires. There was an "undue election," in the
:language of the Act of Assembly • The election was not
conducted according to the positive requirements of the
Claw, and we contend that such an election is, in law, no
election, and cannot be permitted to enter into
the count. It is said that those requirements
were disregarded by: Republicans. This may he
!true. If Republicten officers failed to regard
their oath,. and followed the course complained
.of here, it , does not alter the principle contended for.
Such a poll ought to be thrown out, whether conducted
'by the Democrats or Republicans. Where there has
been an omission to enter the name of a voucher upon
the list, it may not be of moment, but where there has
been a continuous neglect it cannot be pretended that the
;election is conducted according to law. A matt may in

for this principle stoutly, as counsel, as a citizen, as a
member of this cemmunity, having a deep interest in the

abridged the jurisdiction of • this Court ' in con-'

quire into the conduct of the election officers: • The
:court is interested in limiting the inquiry to Ihe atria
directions of the law. Looking at ,these polls, you find
that the liet. of taxables so frequently referred to was,
present at all the divisions. It is not surprising that
where there are 4.000 election officers, some should be
ignorant men. or those who desire to avoid trouble, and
hence some things were dobe which were not exactly
; right ;lint it was not such a departure from the law as
rojustify A court Ih tinplating...the people . by throwing
out the entire poli. You may "purge the poll" by ' ex 7
eluding the proven fraudulent votes, but this is the ex

In regard to the naturalization papers: is , it, not true
that there "Wag a combination to exclude all the natural(;
;nation papers? Election officers are selected to test the
.right Of an elector to vote, but not as to his right tel he
'naturalized.' In conclueion, have the contestants shown
tifirthiog that ought to set aside this election? -•
• 'Hon. Win. M. Meredith. for the contestants, cloied the
;argument. He denied that the respondents rePreeentrti, ,
.as they claimed, the people. He was the representative
'of the people, and these parties have nothing to do with
this question. net the result of theelectiowas returned
was not correct we are not without authority. We
'have the decision in - the case of one of 'the Judges
Thayer), and Mr. Hirst. contesting this very election,
had the magnanimity to withdraw when he found the
;cape was against him. Don't' tell us, with this decision
mf the Legislature, ratified by Mr. Hirst, that there
'is 'nothing in this - case to show • fraud.
:Mr. Phillips has gene Into the law, and insists that you
- tire bibbed to inquiring into the t returns" of the glee
;lion. 'Then he goes into a demurrer to the petition, but
you decided that before you sent the case to the Exatat
ner, and you decided that the' petitions were in form.
Then he goes a little further than that—it is strange how
far learned men will be imbed by the necessities of a
case—he goes inflict. and asserts that this Court has de-
riled TIM; question last year. They say beeanSe you
have given weruieg. that is a decision, and you can
not - overrule. We deny that it would be
Lau opposite opinion, but would be a direct affirmance of
theprinciple laid down last year. The principle of law
as laid down by tills Court is, where the election officers
so conduct themes] Teti as to show that they do not design
to hold an election, that poli is to be thrown out. Thee()
divisions change the whole of thieelectiowr The frauds
aregross; not only palpable but Open. • Take the seventh
division of the Third Ward ; such baste that they could
not keep the run of the names, and a vote of 303 for Mr
?Fox%in 1865 increased to 600 in 1858, and in November it
grows up to Pie. Your Honors know from the locality
there could not have been any such increase. Take the
,Sixth division of the Fourth Ward. It is proved that
There was no tax list at all until 11 o'clock, in which
time 210 votes were polled for Mr. Far., leaving 101 to be
given to Mr. Fox after the tax het was produced. The
Fights of the people are not to be thus trifled with, and•
If any wrong has been done the law has made this court
the tribunal to right that wrougruel you ran do nothing
but strike out these polls: Striking them:out, you
leave a decided .majority for all the con
testents, unless it is to be counter
balanced by deduction from ' • the' other side.
There is something Said upon the subject of the natural.;
ization papers. Count all that were offered and rejected
—3lO, and of these only 30 areproved as individual cases.
These- tire not worth disputing about, if we are right
upon 'the other principles - which we contend for. • The
fact that the seal of p ia court proves itself does not
establish anything that may be presented as seal. .11 a
genuine' seal proves itself, a forged seal disproves itself.

'that he is bound to reject it. We are not to carry this
doctrine that a seal of a Court proving itself is to be
taken to prove anything that is'preseeted. It must be
subject to a fair and . honest investigation. I beg the
Court not to run away with the idea that there was a
coinbinatiouto exclude these papers. You are asked to
add an indefinite number of these voters, where they did
not come to the polls. If they did pot come
to • the polls; . why did they • not conic?
Were they deterred from coming because they knew that
they had fraudulent papers? It is right of nil of , ns tore,
jeer thevotes of those who have not acquired the frau
cldse according to law, and in doing so, no harm is done
to anybody. One public example of a man who obtained
his papers by perjury ; will be ofmore service than any,
The law, for wise purpOses. has appointed this Court
to decide fairly. honestly and impartially upon the ones

to vindicate and maintain the rights of the people and
against those who, under the 'cover of outcries for the
peoplo.are aiming at the most vital portions of the Consti

Fort of thing can be done, there is: no safety, and unless
those who practice these frauds can be taught that they
ain nothing, it will bo of little consequence what law is
made. It will be either ridden over, or driven under or

At the close of the argument the Court reserved its de
cision.

Iteinarks Or tMto. H. Pendleton.
CI isrciNliA'rr, Sept. 11.—A large number of
ilon. - George H. Pendleton's friends called tat'
his residence yesterday,. and :insiston ,
'speech:. He begged oft, but finally cdFuffnted,
supported on crutches. Aniong other things,
he said:
I cannot agree with GOvernor Hays that all the vexed
questions of national parties are wisely and happily set
tled ; that the great questions of liberty and union and
the reconstruction of the union have been made safe,
and cannot agree that retrenchment, economy and .hon
esty have been Introduced into the management of the
federal expenditures; that the debt has Deep, decreased.
and is decreasing, as he states it that the burdens Of
taxation have been reduced and .their. weight upon the
people been lightened;-that, sound Judgment and
freedom from bad influences hAve been brought to the
exereiseof the inariense power of the Secretary of, the
Treasury ; that business is active; that, enterprise is ac
tive, that vigor, energy and industry are bountifully re.
warded ; that employment is abunndaut ; that daily toil
is fairly compensated ; that .commerce in the ocean and
in the land is prosperous, and, therefore, I cannot seri
ously, as dues our worthy Governor, turn my face from,
all questions of Federalpolitics, and .look. . only at
State affairs. I cannot say the Union is- restored when
Virginia, Mississippi and - Texas are under military gov-:
ornruent, and Georgia without representation . in Con
gress. Is peace restored when justice is administered
by drum-head court-martial ? Is the Constitution main
tained when we know that the • Supreme Court is only
waiting an opportunity - to declare the reconstruction
acts unconstit u tional ? . I oppose the adoption of.the
Fifteenth Amendment because it is a material, radical,-
change in our systemof government. It destroys the re . -
'Wien of States to the Federal Union, which the onstitu
tion established degrades them, and takes away from the
States, without their consent. that essential attribute—a
self-governing community. Two years ago the people, of.
Ohio, without distinction of party, by an immense ma
jority, refused to amend the State Constitution. I scene ,
reason to believe that they have changed their opinion.
I object to its adoption, because by . the strongest
implication it confers npon Congress the right to
exclude from the ;ballot'peesous: of our own
. own white race because of their native creed, want of
cdneation or poverty, and prohibits the exclusion ottlY
of another race. If tine' interpretation of Senator Nor-.
ton and Senator Howard be correct, under this amend- .
xneut Congress may exclue all Irish and German. Catho
lic or Protestant, or the poor man from the enjoyment of
suffrage, but not the negro or a. Mongolian. I object
to its adoption because its partial schethe is to
flood thefeountry with the forced intportation . of, an
immense number . of Chinese coolies, and .bring into our
race a more ditlicultforni of social governmental illieg
tions which have so unhappily divided our people. Mr.
.Pendleton dwelt at considerable length upon financial
questions, reiterating his former assertions in regard to
thepayment of the public' debt and bondholders with
greenbacks, abolishing the national bank System, and
favoring strict economy in reducing the national debt.
