LlThe Committee on Memorial and Des

airman offered the report, - the general
plan of which embodies the report and i
etnorial prepared 'by the Committee
the Detroit Itfannfactarers' Assoc.la
on substanthuly, as follows:
Resolved, That this Convention af
firms, first and before all other conside•
rations of advantage to individuals or
classes, the sacrednessof a full and just
ultimate payment of tho national debt,
and that in„urging a change and mine.
tion of internal revenue taxation, we
would bear in mind the financial condi
tion of the country, and the expenses
and just obligations of the government,
and so plan our reffirm as to improve
that condition and thus in fit time meet
theai obligations with more eat* and
greater certainty.
Resolved, That however cheerfully
our taxes were borne wherrneasssaryin
the crisis of a great war, now that our
condition is changed many of them 'ere
unnecessary and &mesa business, and
hamper the productive industry of the
country, and that our burtheusomo and.
exhaustive internal taxation ellen be
apeedlir reduced to the wants of an eco
nomical administration of fiscal affairs,
and since the revenue under existing
Laws may be estimated at 6150,000,00 S pez
annum more, than such necessities
I:mire; the 'internal revenue, tax and
stamp duties excepted, in All manufao
turas and productions, luxuries 'except
ed sbonld bo removed.
Whereas, . The [[experience of the
world shows that the most simple ape.
terra of taxing, raising revenue from a
few sources, Insure. the moat vase,
I economy and certainty, therefore, ]
Resolv p erplexing is full time tho
crud'- an details and Crud'. ]
Use of a ayatem- so now, and therefore
imperfect, as oars, be put aside, that ]
simplicity, order and economy may take
their place.
Resolved,. That wo full 9 eralarao rind
commend a atatement of the Secretary
of the Treasury, in his late report, that it
is evident the administration of the rev
•enue must be more efficient than at
present to nave. the service from utter
demoralization, and in view of the grave
truth of that statement, we would urge
upon Congress as of the highest import
ance the' adoption of some plan: a board
of examiners, or some adequate means
by which - character illness and reeyon
e[biiity
. shall be rigidly demanded of all
revenue officials, and also a reform
which shall prevent corrupt officers from
using irresponsible power,avithoutjudge
or jury, to plunder honorable — man and
fatten on their thorn of spoils thus basely

duced to 5h16.18,5,121. since September let,
184.1; and Whereas, the experience of
these two years ld 'closed shows that
severe and conipllcated taxation news
sarj for such henry and speedy pay
ments, if continued, pill exhaust and
paralyze the resources and labor orthe
country, therefore,
Ilesolred, That such rapid reduction
or the debt Is frau g ht with danger in the
near lature, and should not be contin
ued, and that eN b lithen all the States
or the Union are Inanclal conditionto
pay tneir due share should the debt be
reduced by a small sum annually, In
creasing as the growth of the wealth and
population allow, with a view to fall
payment as soon as it can be safely done
without perilous exhaustion and ember..
rasament.
Resolved, .That we- deem it of great
importance that constant' nd systemat c
care be need that the Government in
eorde and : outgo balance, with that
difference if-auy on the surplusaide,
since without such care it is utterly im
possible to adjust revenue matters wise
ly or for the common good, and equally
impossible to avert shameful national
financial-difficultim; and therefore we
would suggest that ftt committees or
beards be chosen by Congress nod the
Treasury department to meet, confer and
carefully Inform each other of
the probable it:mimes and- - expenses,
that an' appropriations may , be made
with a careful eye to this balance, to ob
serve and maintain which is honor and
success, to injure or to destroy which is
shame and embarrassment for individ
uals or nation alike. -
The Committee further` reported two
memorials for presantallen' to Congress;
urging upon that body theadoption ofthe
views set forth in the resolutions.
The first recommended the collection
of Internal Revenue exclusively from
,whl sk acco y,
snuff ferme and nted liq ; uors end wines,
tob cigar
rail way' dividends; and deposit;
shpunboat and
logsees
and successions, licenses, atatans and
broken' ealea of stocks and. gold, and
that all taxes now levied upon manure°.
tures be removed. The memorial
urged at length that from the sources
named sufficient revenue could be
raised, leaving all our Industrial inter-
- sate to expand unfettered..
The second memorial urged • the adop
tion by I Congress of the recommenda
tion of too Commissioner •of Internal
Revenue, of a tlsorongh system of ex
amination Into the moral and educational
Illness of all candidates,ffir omen, as in
all European goverdmetta.
Then sotptiomt were considered aeria
list and adopted,
Roth memorials were then takes up,
and niter a brief dhictuadon adopted. •
After the transaction of some miscel

As to the seared feature of our work—
the relief of the', poor—the Committee
feel persuaded that ,thogreat want of our
city is a central orpetization, to which
all mses of destitution aha wh ich reported,
and through the agents of w nil re
lief shell come. We therefore propose
that all the dLstinettbenevolent societies,
exdopting. these that may exist in the
several churches for, the solo object of
taking care of the poor pf the congrega
tion, be merged into the Ladies' Relief
Asaocintion of Pittsburgh. Wo think
our proposed plan , of evangelical visita
tion will bring to light. maw cases of
destitution that • ought to-be rebeved,
while it .will also, largely prevent the
fraud and imposition now practiced up
on benevolent individuals and societies
—e fraud made comparatively easy by
the numerous sources from witich the
unworthy are permitted to draw.
These ore the suggestion , which we
make to the pasture and members of the
Pvangelical ohm:cites of the cities and
surrounding boroughs. We believe they
ran be curried out into practical effect.
Will our brethren give theMa prayerful
eonaideration?
A meeting will • be held in the First
Presbyterian Church (Lecture Room,)
Wood street., Monday afternoon at three
o'clock, to which ail Churches and Socie
ties who have a heart to co-operate In

two representatives.
