No inlormation u to the specific items of the bill has yet. transpired. The internal taxes were reduced at the first session of that XXXIXth Congress *00,000,90 0 ; at the second session *40,000,000 more; by the XLlst Corigress $70,000,000-, and now *83,000.000 arc yet to be taken off. Hera are *200,000,000 abated in these form . , -of taxation. Yet for the year ending In January, 1809, the total receipts were only $159,181,127.29, and for the year ending is June next, in the faro of aU Oats reduetiou, the receipts cannot well be less than.*175,000,000. What a magnificent illustration of the rapidly re cuperating wealth and national strength l of- the peopled "We now tax," says Gen. GARTIPLO, "only throe things,: First; the vices of tlio country in its con sumption of liquor and tobacco; second, the Inutries of the country; third, the realized wealth of the country in incomes and gross receipts." This, continued he, `iconstitutes the simple creed of our inter nal taxation." SUBMISSION UNDER PROTEST. - The decision of the Supreme Court, to reconsider its former decision o'n the legal- Lander' Act, and to reopen the argument wee reached after a t.. .protracted coneulta Ilon of the Judges, four of whom dis rented from the conclusion. These were Justices Chase, Nelson; 'Fields and Clif ford, the tame four'who promulgated'tbe judgment In Griswold's case. Justices Ili ter , Swayne, Davie, Strong and Bradley have determined to hear further argument upon the great question at issue. We take this occasion to repeat that, so long es that judgment stands care. versed, it should command the pub lie - obedience. Judicial forme have been preserved In its rendition, no matter what collateral objections may have been disregarded by the quasi ma jority. That these objections have a weight which now controls a majority of the 101 l bench, to show its readiness to re-egamine the basis of the judgment, is no good reason, either that we should re gard its reversal ma foregone conclusion, 'or that the people should deny its present validity. —We hope that the judgment may be speedily reversed,but until then we should njolas to see It universally suspected as the lei of the land. _ _ The decision in Griswold's CIAO ex prosily held that greenbacks were not a leg►btender for debts incurred before February, 1862. Inferentially, thalami of that judgment not only did not ex clude the idea of a =betel:tent decision 'invalidating legaltelder for debts of a subsequent date, but have actually seemed to justify a grave apprehension that even tually the same four judges, if unchecked; would proceed to overturn all that was thus left of the Act of 'B2, and extinguish the legal under principle altogether. For this reason, we may find .satisfaction in lbe general belief that, whatever the Court may now hold to be the law as to debts of a preview' date, the absolute constitu tionality of the Act as to debts later con t tracted will be emphatically declared. ! We should then know - the worst of it, I and have less difficulty in becoming rec onciled to The principle of cola-liabllity I for debts contracted on the coin-basis. rem BORDER !MATES AND THE ARTICLE. Of all the States, in which the old doe. trine of political proscription for race or color prevailed, Delaware la the first to render a practical submission to the new Constitutional rule. The colored men of Wilmington voted at the municipal elec tion on the end. Sow theyvoted is of 'no consequence comparatively; that they WOO voters at all is of vastly more sig. I filth:ant importance to Delaware. Her material prosperity In the future has gain ed new forces, the reach and vigor of which language cannot adequately ex. press. tinder the armor regime, Maryland has been very largely Democratic. The fu ture. situation involves much political doubt; if the new voters support Republi. eattnominations, it would not be impose& lite for the Democracy to lose their con. Wolof the State. Hence, It has become an interesting question, in their Iregisle. lure, how thoroughly and cordially they shall acquiesce in the new order of things. It is the settled policy of the State to zeg later all voters, and provision 'must be - tirade at once for the admission of the col ored 'men to the lists. We note with pleasure ! that the Democrats decline an Unprofitable contest with the Federal-au. thority. Their State Committee advises the Legislature to, amend the Registry law' at once, so as to conform to the Article, suggesting that any failure in Has duty cannot but challenge and receive the speedy Interposition of Congress. Mr. Stone; one of the Maryland Congressmen, was present at the deliberations of the Committee, and made this very forcible statement: • - The adoption of It Constitutional Amendment wax a political end not a Judicial question. If the political de. pertinent of the 'Government declared the Amendment adopted, the judicial department could not decide that A was not adopted: that we ((. e., the Demo. creole party) could get no relief, if we' considered it a grievance, by any appeal to the Courts. It remains to be seen whether the Leg islators shall adopt In good faith, and ex. acute the recommendation from the Dem. °Made Committee. We have as yet no indications from Kentucky, of any official action to con form the actual franchise in that State to the obligations of the Article. gut we hive too sincere confidence in the political tact of the hitherto dominant farty, to doubt for an instant that Kentucky will submit herself to an inevitable situa tion. Her acquiescence may besome l'what dilatory, but it will ultl. mately be complete, The resulting effect upon her State politics will be con spicuous, but it Is by no means certain of extinguishing . a fifty thousand Democratic majority. —The border States are thus to be re constructed in the only method practica ble under the Constitution and warranted by the facts. Whatever the political con sequences of the new policy may be to these Staten, le will prove is si true of the.other two ss of Delaware that this en largement of their political citizenship, to comprehends numerous class heretofore proscribed, will add wonderfully to the active elements underlying the material fabrics In all of those Commonwealths.

The Speaker pro tern decided against the point, an appeal was taken and the Speaker sustained, 59 to 27,-llnmphreys, Millar, Taylor and Walton aye, Kerr and White nay. After the first section was read r it was moved to postpone the bill to the next Monday. Lost, 42 to 47—Humphreys, Kerr, Millar and White for postponement. Taylor and Walton against It.

The next morning the bill came up on the question of its final passage. A motion .to postpone was lost, V. to 64 —Kerr and White aye, Humphreys, Millar Taylor and Walton nay. A motion that the main question should be then taken, was carried, 62 to N I Taylor and. Walton aye, Humphreys, 1 Kerr , Millar and White nay. 1 .- And the main question was taken, Surd the bill passed, 01 to 35—Millar, Taylor and Walton aye, Humphreys, Kerr and . I White, nay. ‘ - —Messrs. Kerr and White fought against the bill in all its stages, and upon city motion; Messrs. Taylor. and Walton ss uniformly supported It In every vele which they cast; Messrs. Humphreys and Millar were sometimes on one aide and sometimes .nn the other. Of nine votes upon this bill, Mr. Illamohreys acted with its friends three times, including the call for the previous question, ono them . five times, and missed ono vote. Mr. Millar voted with them six times and against them three times. The Republicsns of Allegheny thus know precisely where their4Represenla lves stood.

I! under date of March 3, we learn more I about the reported enthusiasm. In favor m of annexation to this country. A well- Informed gentliman writes that no voting by ballot has taken pacO, but that the so-called will of the people was ob. tained by summoning all citizens, old and young, to appear before the Govern or and sign a paper which represents their wish for the incorporation of the Island with the United Status, as a terri tory.

It hi stated that Admiral Poore and the new Consul have been grossly deceived in I the whole matter; that two thirds of the llpeople are opposed to annexation, being. deterred from expressing their opinions only by fear of punishment, and that as soon as the transfer takes place our Gov ernment will have to send troops to sup press* rebellion.

WAPIELINGTON March 29, 1870. fint : I desire to call your attention to the fact that frequent complaints are made by tax-payers that Internal revenue offi cers are-uncivil and offensive in the exe cution of official duties. Yon will especially enjoin it upon your assistant assessors to guard against giving muse for such complaints. The greatest 4vnity and Courtesy should be observed officers while in the discharge of their official duties. No rude or offensive lan guage should be Indulged in, and no harsh or improper conduct practiced: . Anyi vio lation of theme directions should be re garded as cause for removal. • These suggestions are not intended in any, manner to diminish the efforts of ofil• cers to enforce the laws. That work must be done efficiently and resolately, without fear or favor; but It should be done kindly, decorously, and such 4 manner as to give no just 'grounds for offense.. 'I am aware of the difficulties which internal revenue - officers have to encounter. During the war the abunl dance of money and a spirit of patriotism prompted men to pay their taxes;tithe - tut complaint. Now, money is mor valutif his, business less remunerative, and all fear for the stability and perpetuity of the \ Government has vanished. Persons now resist taxation who here-, tofore paid cheerfully, and rulings of this office made by former Commissioners, and which have hitherto been cheerfully obeyed, are now not unirequently op. pJsed with bitterness, and denounced as the arbitrary and Illegal decisions' of the present Commissioner. This is referred to In order to show the neceasity_of prudence, c ourte s y, and con ciliation on the part f outcast in the dis charge of their official duties, and not in any manner to justify any neglect or Minion to enfOICOLJEIIIy and fairly the laws against all persons, without distinc tion and without favor. Taxation, in order to be just, moat be impartial, and enforced upon all classes according to the exact measure of their ability. a. great wrong would be done, therefore, If the law were enforced only against • portion of those who are embraced within its provisions, and nothing could justify ex ecutive officers In allowing any discrimi nation In this regard. Very respectfully, • C. DaLsao. Commissioner.
