We call attention to an article on the
census,' in another part of this paper,
furnished by H. 15. Deming, one of the
enumerators.
By studying these instructions, our
people will save themselves and the
census officers lunch trouble. - We ear
nestly urge all elk citizens to read and
preserve all ive pnblish on the subject
from timeto time.
PUBLIC LIBRA It I ES.
In this age of cheap books, nothing is
more to be lamented than the fact that
many persons having a taste for read
ing, have no books to read. We have
known many a pint'', to read, and read
again and again, old and useless-hooks,
of very little consequence to any one,!
merely for want of something better,
and to satisfy their hunger for mental
food. There are some books, it is true,
which can never he read too much ; twitt
Wax books are not likely to fall into the
hands of those who, for want of private
means, are likely to frequent the public
libraries. As a rule, the' honks within
teach of the class most benefit ted by li
braries accessible to all classes at little
expense, are of a low order, and fre
quently of a pernicious nature. Fre
quent perusals destroy the natural taste
for reading, or vitiate the mind with the
bad lessons contained in them, till at
last thel appetite for useful reading is
overcome, and the boynr girl seeks to
satiate his or her corrupted longings in
some way, detilmental alike to the
mental and moral faculties. Idleness
often becomes a disease with such, and
in its train follow the fearful consequen
ces in which the unsatisfied nature too
often indulgeS. _
_
In a republic, wherein the part, of all
citizens in political attain; is equal, the
public safety demands that the avenues
to a g - en4al knowledgeof thing; should
be open to all. The common school but
teaches the future elector the alphabet
.by aid of which he is to conic to a know
ledge of his duties as a citizen It is
idle to indulge the hope that popular
education can be relied upon to tide- -
quately qualify the future elector fur his
responsibl ) duties. A proper apprecia
tion of these duties, and the ability to
grasp all the direct and collateral con
siderations which must be under4ood
and weighed, one with another, in or
der to discriminate nicely in political
aflairs, make an intelligent understan
ding of history essential to the citizen.
Yet the cases are rare indeed among the
middle classes, where any such know
ledge is acquired in the common schools
of the land. Barely a superficial ac
quaintance is made by the best pupils,
and many never enter at all into these
matters. • With the history and best lit
erature of the country, political science
(for it is nothing less than a science,
and is among the most abstruse) is close
ly allied. Biography makes up the
most instructive part of all this history.
Indeed, the history of the times and the
country, is but the aggregate of the life
struggles of 'her great men. The•prece
dents of the past should teach us to
shun the rocks in the future.
Perhaps nothing so broadens and
deepens the views of menos does a Flys
tematie course of useful reading. It
familiarizes one with the past, and re
-44.--le Lt. e
flection. It teaches us how never to be
disconcerted, and makes us:notol2ly ca
pable of enjoying solitude, but als(Thnnz%
Ides us to add to the enjoyment of oth
ers with whom we meet. It gives pol
ish to the manners, also,.as it puts us at
ease in many instances, when we would
otherwise be overwhelmed with embar
rassment, through a consciousness of
ignorance.
But there should be no occasion to di
late upon the uses and profit of careful
:reading.
No great pifort is required to establish
a library. Once establislied, upon a
system which shall command the confi
dence of the community, time will
make it permanent and self-supporting.
We know •they - bfieti% fail. Generally,
the cause of failure liet in defective or
ganization. No such undertaking can
be made a, success wiktibut effbrt, and
persistent fidthfulnes444, the part of of
fl ers. System must - I ' ;e provided for,
ai. d adhered to strictly. Itules must be
1
: a solute laws, to which there is no ex
'eeption ; otherwise :the books soon dis
appear and never come back. If suita
ble regulations be made and enforced,
there is no such difficulty. Under our
laws,lt costs but little to have such so
' eieties incorporated, and they should be
in every case,, so that property may be
secure, and a remedy for infringement
of rights provided fez'.
In connection with such ai enter
prise, a literary and scientific society
may well be sustained. Every village
in the county should have such an asso
ciation, and we hope to pee our young
men enlisted irk this matter, in every
community. The benefits will remu
nerate liberally for all the labor and ex
pense. .
There seems to be little prospect that
the lower house of Congress will con
sent to the total abolition of the income
tax. • It is proposed to reduce the tax
from five per centum to three, and to
increase the exemption from $l,OOO, ex
empt under the present law, t.:l $2,000.
This would be something gained, .and,
fertile time, might be sufficient; but if
the state of the revenues . will permit,
we believe) it should be entirely done
away with. This is a relic of war-time.
The law is inquisitorial in its nature,
and in many instances unequal. It is
a difficult matter to see it faithfully ex
ecuted, also. Unscrupulous men hesi
tate not to misrepresent and falsify in
making returns, so that we see a few
honest men of little means paying bur
densome taxes, while their rich neigh
bore go free. It may be said this is no
fault of the law ; and so is the fact.—
But the nature of the law is such as to
encourage a disposition to evade it, be
cause it is inquisitive on matters ;of a
purely personal and private character.
It is peculiarly a hardship upon sala
ried officers, and all men working •for
wages who haVe not the comforts of
life about them, except such as they
purchase and pay for out of their earn
legs. A government clerk Ilia& his
monthly Wages reduced by a retention
of the percentage pro . vided by law,
with no opportunity to deduct before
hand the cost of little luxuries, of
which, in most cases, no account is
made in making tip the yearly balance
sheet. with the army officer, and,
the miner—in fact, all whose known
wages exceed the limit of legatexemp
tion.
Increasing this exemption to $2,000,
will relieve very many from these hard
ships; and it would seem that those re
ceiving a larger income, can afford to
pay upon the excess, as a consideration
ibr the protection of a government
whose benign laws enable them to .aci
cumulate so
An additional and valid reason was
given by Judge Davis in the House, on
the discussion of this question, in, the
fact that the original law said that "the
tax on incomes * shall be levied
until and including the year 1870, and
no longer," The faith of the govern=
meat is pledged to the suspension of
this law after the present year; and the
reasons should be strong which shall
induceit todisregard this primalpledge.
'1; he temper of the House indicates
very strongly the popular favor with
which the Jaw is received' in country
districts, among the classes whose in
comes are not in excess of the exemp
tion. But we should not be controlled
alone by our personal interests. Tax
laws should bear equally upon all class
es, so far as this is possible. . If, in time,
by amendment and improvement of the
terms of this law, the hardships which
the know exist in many cases, can be
guarded against, there could be no rea
sonable objection to such a discrimiha
tion between the prosperous and the nn
thrifty.. The same principle is invoked
in many cases where the luxuries, only
indulged in by the rich, are taxed in ex
cess of the necessities of all classes.
CONGRESSIONAL.
Y y
June 2.—There was a very interesting
debate on the Income 'Tax question in
the House, aresume of which we take
from the Tribune :
"Immediately after the morning hour in the
House, to-day, the clause in relation to the in
come tax was debated for over three hours. Thir
ty-fivo members spoke under the five minutes'
rule, exhibiting an unusual earnestness in the
matter, making the debate exceedingly interest
ing. Politics for onco were lost sight of; Repub
licans and ;Democrats alike speaking for and
against th a-continuance of the tax. It was gen
erally-admitted that the arguments against the
continuanoli of the tax were unanswerable, in the
face of which there wore not half a dozen mem
bers who dared to advocate the continuance of
the tax as levied during the last six years. Of
those speaking, a majority favored total aboli
tion, while a large number of those favoring the
tax advocated an increase of the amount of ex
emption and a decrease in the rate. Tho opposi
tion to the abolition of the tax came principally
from those members representing country dis
tricts whore few pay the tax. During the de
bate, an Indiank member said that ho wanted
the tax continued for tho reason that, in his dis
_trict, beside himself only ono other resident paid
the tax. Ho would compromise, however, by
voting for such en increase of the amount of ex
emption as to relieve himself. Mr. Hill made a
statement, compiled from the official figures,
showing that nearly nine-tenths of the whole
amount of the trii collected on incomes, was paid
by the New Enghind and Middle States and Cal
ifornia. ' Mr. Wmid showed that Now York State
alone paid 30 perlcont. of the whole tai, and of
this New York city paid 25. per cont. Messrs.
Kelley and Myers showed that Philadelphia was
not far behind Now York. Messrs. Sargent and
"Pitch oxplatnea now 11011.VIly the tax bore upon
the minors of their country, while Gen. Banks
and Mr. Kellogg made similar exhibitions for the
salaried. men of Now England. Messrs. Davis
and Potter, of Now York, were very strong in
their arguments against tho constitutionality of
the tax, and its unjust discriminations against
tho bettor class of the citizens of ,the country.—
Messrs. Allison, Halo and Judd favored larger
exemptions, while Messrs. Ward, Farnsworth
ohsouro *not. WES t thought
the tax should be continued, for the reason that
its burden did not bear upon their constituents,
and its abolition might force the continuance of
some other tax whose weight was more apparent
to them. Gen. Schenck called. the provlous ques
tionair-the bill. So)me fifteen or twenty amend
ments were then offered, and in order that they
might be printed, it was agreed that no vote Ire
taken until to-morrow."
In the Senate, the bill abolishing the'
franking privilege was again postponed,
Senators evidently desiring not to come
to a vote upon it. The Indian Appro
priation bill was then taken up, and
Senator Morrill made an interesting
speech on Indian affairs. He goes
against the policy of warring against
them. Senator Stewart attributes all
the horrors of this conflict to the trea
chery and cruelty of the Indians. At
the evening session of the Senate, some
amendments were made to the bill, ma
king more than $2,000,000 additional.
June 3.—There was a very full atten
dance in the House, and the day was
one of the most important of the ses
sion. The propositiOp to abolish the
income tax was debated, and only 69
voted in favor of tol l abolishment, to
125 against. 'the a endment to in
crease the amount exempted from $l,OOO
to $2,000, and reducing the taxJo three
per centum, was adopted. Another
provisipn, discriminating between an
owner of a residence and a lodger, was
inserted. A proposition to continue
the tax but one year was defeated,- only
72 voting in favor of it. It is claimed
that these modifications will reduce the
revenue from this source, $11,000,000.
There was considerable skirmishing
over an attempt to tax the interest on
government bonds five per cent. It
was_ defeated-78 to 110. Only two De
mocrats voted in the negative, while 30
Republicans voted in the affirmative.
In the Senate, the consideration of
Indian Affairs occupied the afternoon.
Additional appropriations, amounting
to $1,500,000, were made on recommen
dation of committee.
June 6.—The bill reducing internal
taxation about $60,000,000 a year, passed
the House, with the amended tariff bill
annexed. The Post Offibe Appropria
tion bill was passed, an Amendment to
which increases the amopnt paid to let
ter carriers about $250,000. A resolu
tion requiring the Ways and Means
Committee to report a bill removing all
tax on coal, and placing it on the free
list, passed. Gen. Butler strove to in
clude salt, but failed.
In the Senate, Mr. Williams's bill in
creasing the compensation of enumera
tors of the census, after being restricted
in its operation 'to sparsely settled dis
tricts, was passed. It was provided that
in no case shall the compensation ex
ceed $8 per day. The 'lndian Appro
priation bill was considered, and an
amendment to appropriate $250,000 in
bonds to the Choctaws, was voted down.
The Tribune says :

however, to any rights of property and State ju
risdiction in and over the Ban); and subject,
further, to all rules and regulations which Con
gress may from time to time initablish for the
governsamat of international telegraphic lines or
cables.
June 7.—The House passed a bill giv
ing artificial limbs, or the price thereof,
($75 for a leg, $5O for an arm), to ,sol
diers disabled in the late war, once in
five years. The Senate passed the bill,
but struck out the provision granting
money commutation. Subsequently,
the Conference Committee agreed to the
original Ifonse bill. It is said they will
call for about $400,000 every five years.
June B.—ln the Senate, there was
considerable excitement over the San
Domingo treaty. It seems a certain
Mr. Hatch, of Connecticut, was impris
oned in San Domingo, for interference
in some political affairs which Presi
dent, Baez did netlike. Ferry, l Suinner
and others discussed San Donffngo af
fairs with intense earnestness.. A Spe
elal Committee was appointed to inves
tigate the matter. In the evening the
Senate discussed Indian affairs. Noth
ing definite was accomplished. In the
Ilouse, - the Currency bill was taken up.
The Tribune correspondent says:
About 30 amendments were then offered, and
for more than an hour afterward the House, got
into the worst "tangle" it has been in for many
a day. There was not a very full House, about
70 members being absent. Finally, the oppo
nents of the bill, by a majority of (four, carried
an adjournment, which was equivalent to killing
the bill, as it goes to the foot of the calendar,
and cannot possibly be reached again this session
in time for action. Miring the muddle, the state
ment was made knoWn that there aro now on the
speaker's table; waiting action, about 800 bills.
Mr. Bright's bill in Parliament, ex
tending the right of suffrage to certain
classes of women, was defeated, by
majority of 126. The result is said to
have been received with applause.—
Whether any women " applauded," is
not reported.
It is easy enough for a body of men,
constituting the sovereign power, and
monopolizing the right of suffrage
among themselves, to vote down such a
proposition as this : How it would have
been, had there been as many women
Lys men to pass upon the question, is an
other matter entirely. If women are
" persons," entitled to the " ahSolute
rights of individuals," as defined by
taw, the refusal of the constituent pow
er, when composed of men alone, to ex
tend the privilege of passing upon this
question to women, is the mere predom
inance of might, and cannot be a deci
sion binding, in the view of that law
which accords to 11 persons the natural
rights of man.
At a meeting Wherein the question of
woman suffrage was debated, the ladies
neither took part in the discussion, nor
voted on the resolution. Such a man
ner of deciding a question of so vital
consequence to them, seemed to us, at
the time, to be founded on the barba
rism of a great social wrong, if, indeed,
women be not of a higher Species than
men, 'and, as such, exempt from the
burden of a part In publiq affairs. If
such they claim themselves to be, the
title shall not be disputed by us. We
do not court responsibility ; but we are
willing to exercise authority, feeling
that upon men devolve the heavier bur
dens (the State, the sword, the purse,
the domestic lordship) of life. If this
is the unrevealed curse inflicted upon
Adarn,"Adtim " Tie - Is - putout,
docile, obedient to the order of nature.
Wherefore strive against it? It would
not be manly to impose so much upon
unwilling woman. Can it be she has a
design in it all, and that "she rules
him, though she does not seem to rule ?"

LIFE ASSURANCE.
Ts it wise to delay the payment of a more
I.pit
tance to some Life Insurance Company, when
by doing so a handsome competence is secured
to one's family in case of premature death? In
making an insurance two things are necessary
to be considered:
First, The security of the Company.
Second, Cheapness of the insurance. The' atio
of assets to liabilities in five companies some
what known in this vicinity clearly demonstrates
which of the five is most secure:
Ratio of Assets to Liabilities. ;

M. V. ANDREWS, Esq., WeHaber°, Pa.,
Dear Sir:—Your favor of the 18th inst.,
has come to hand with policy N 0.21,227 Blanchard
which we have changed and forwarded to Mr. A.
Humphrey, Tioga, Pa., as requested.
Although you nay nothing of a slip about tho
magnificent attractions of "the Travelers," we
thought you perhaps intondod to elicit our criti
cisms, and we therefore offer them, hoping they
may be of some service to you.
Please turn to p. 120, of the 14th Mass. Re
port, and you will see that the Life .Deparbizent
of the Travelers was insolvent Dee. 31, 1868.

Gross Assets, Life Dept., $323,735 05
Gross Liabilities " " 354,435 79
But iu the Accident Department there was a
moderate surplus ($60,052 96) which more than
canceled (by $34,352 01) the deficiency in the
Life Department.. You will observe that on p.
120 and p. 123 of above report, the capital
($500,000,) is included in the assets of the Acci
dent Department.. Where then is the "security
of the Co." to Life policy holders ? Suppose too
that the circumstances of the case were changed,
and that the Accident Dept. was insolvent and
the Life Dept. had a surplus, would not the Co.
Pounce on the funds of the Life Dept. to pay for
the broken legs and arms ?
2d, They claim "cheapness of the insurance."
May not a thing be too cheap ? Does not the in
solvency of their Life Dept. prove their insurance
too cheap ? How long can they stand cheap
rates ? Should the insurant ever sacrifice securi
ty to cheapness
3d, Thoy say "the Mutual Companies charge
in their polipies a largo premium, but make a
verbal promise outside of the policy :to return in
the future iloase of the overcharged premiums
which they call dividends." The Washington
has always stated in the policy that it insured a
certain sum "toithparticiputione in profits."
The subject is not exhausted, but perhaps we
are telling you only what you already know.
We mail a Mass. Report for fear you may not
have ono. Yours Truly, '

iIkWITH corrupt or tainted Blood you
'
are sick all over. It may burst out
in Pimples, or Sores, or In some ac
tive disease, or it may merely keep
you listless, depressed and good for
noithing, But you cannot have good
health while your blood is impure.—
' Ayer's Sarsaparilla purges out these
impurities; it expels disease and stimulates the organs
oil life into vigorous action. Hence It rapidly cures
a variety of complaints which aro caused by impurity
of the blood, such as Scrofula, or Hing's Evil, Tumors,
Ulcers, Sores, Eruptions, Pimples, Blotches, Boils, St.
Anthony's Fire, Roso or Erysipelas, Totter or Salt
Rheum, Scald Head, Ring Worm, Cancer or Cancerous
Tumors, Sore Ryes, , Female Diseases, such as Retention,
Irregularity, Suppression, Whites, Sterility, also Sy
philis or Veueralbliseases, Liver Complaints, and Hoart
Diseases. Try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and see for your
self the surprising activity With which it cleanses the
blood and cures these disorders. ' .
During late years the public have been totaled by
large bottles pretending to give a quart of Extract of
Sarsaparilla for ono dollar. Most of these have been
frauds upon the sick, for they not only contain little,
if any, Sarsaparilla, but often no curitivo ingredient
whatever, nonce, bitter.dleappolutmonts has followed
the use of the various extracts of Sarsaparilla which
flood the market, until the name itself has become
synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still wo call
this compound, " Sarsaparilla " and intend to supply
such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load
of obloqay which rests upon it. We think we have
ground for believing it has virtues which are irresisti.
ble by the class of diseases it is inteded to cure. We
can Assure tho sick, that we offer them the beet altera
tive we know how to produce, and we have reason to
believe. it is by far the most effectual purifier of the
blood yet discovered.
Ayer'a Cherry Pectoral is .so universally known to
surpass every other medicine for the cure of Coughs,
Colds, Influenza, Hoarseness, Croup. Dronchittle, In
cipient Consumption, and for the relief of Constunp
tive Patients in advanced stages of the disease, that It
hingeless hero to recount the evidence of its virtues.—
The world knows them. 7
