Mr. Gladstone havia/ noticed that a member quoted the Welsh pro? verb, "A nation ls stronger than a law," emphati? cally sauf: - Sir, I admit lt; I admit more-a na? tion ls stronger than a parliament; but I will add yet another saying-"there is something else stronger than a nation, and that something ls Justice." Later on he said: "rae taco or Justes is like the face of the god Jani?. It is like thc face of those lions, thc work of Landseer, which keep watch and ward around thc record of our country's greatness. She presents one tranquil and majestic countenance towards every point of the compass and every quarter or the globe." -Thc floating population or Florida has been very large th? past winter, and still a natuber of strangers are enjoying themselves there. A writer, in speaking of Hie climate, says : "Briely it may bj stated that we are In a latitude 80 de? grees, a narrow p3ninsnla, a wilderness of pin - forest, aromatic with resinous odors, the Atlantic on the one side, the Golf of Mexico on thc other, and the broad, tepid gulf stream almost surround? ing the State, ge.itly mollifying thc atmosphere. The sea freeze fuming the land by day, thc gulf breeze cooling the afr by night. Such natural, regular and untf .rm causes or themselves assures a pleasant and genial climate; nowhere else on this continent ts there such a junction of favora? ble elements." -The Income Tax bin which, at the instance or Mr. Sherman, baa just passed llie senate, pro? vides for the continuance daring is70of thc tux of five per cent, on incomes delved rrora thc fol? lowing sources, io wit: Dividends or banks trust companies, savings Institutions and insurance companies, dividends and interest oa the bund* of Internal Improvement compauies, and salaries of persons in the civil, military, n.ival. or ot?i?r employment of the United States. The other seo Moas ol' the law which Impose a tax or ihop? xent. o a the gains, profits and income of every citizen, have been postponed for considera!ion when the general revenue law Comes ap 1.er .r. Congress for action. There should, os lue Phill* delphla Ledzer Justly remark*, be no more tink? ering with this odious and unequal "lnoomctax." It should be abolished allom th r. -Colored persona in the Northern States arc Already sending ou complaints to Washington that they have not seen a?owed to vote In town elections since the Fifteenth amendment was rati? fied. The reason generally assigned by officers who conduct the elections is that they take an oath to obey the State laws relating to suffrage; that although these are rendered nugatory by the amendment, they have no official notice or the fact through the Governor or the State. A memo? rial was presented to the Senate the other day trom 137 colored men or Cinciunaii. Ohio, willi every sighature in thc same handwriting, repre? senting that they were prevented from voting at an election just held: i hat it portions or the wards offlci ; whose duty lt was to hold the election re? fused to serve, and their places were supplied by persons irresponsible in any way for injuries that might bc Indicted on them. Under the second section or the Fifteenth amendment Congress can pass appropriate legislation enforcing colored suffrage, and this memorial wa3 referred for that purpose to the Judiciary Committee. ?.Stand and Deliver:" The dominant party is in serious danger of foundering under the weight or thc in? come tax, which Mr. Boutwell persistently demands, and fur wlio3e re-establishment in some form Mr. Sherman threatens to bring in a bill. The tax is unpopular, and oven odious, in all parts of the country. Petitions for its abrogation have been poured in from every quarter. Our whole people agree with Mr. Bright ;n his opinion of this kind of tax-"it "is hateful beyond all ochers, because it is '.unjust beyond all others." Many aman who receives a thousand dollars per year makes more and saves more than olhors who receive double that amount. Yet the government wrenches from a city clerk, who can barely live and feed and clothe Iiis fami? ly, fifty dollars a year; while a "canny "countryman who thrives and saves from a "smaller amount goes scot free." The income tax is odiously inquisitive. It gives the assessor the right to examine, if he sccs fit, books and private papers. But it allows him to sec only one side of those books. It ignores the citizen's necessary expenses. It ignores his debts. It ignores his family. It simply says to him: Sir, you have had so much money in your hands this year; the government demands such and such a proportion. You may not have a cent left of what you received. You may not be able to save a cent, month by month or year by year. You may have debts and expenses upon you that arc crushing out your lite. No matter ! The government wants $100,000,000 of extra capital every year, and you must pay your part or bo sold out. But what adds to the monstrous injustice of this tax is the fact that it was accepted by thc people as a necessity arising from a slate of war, and that the government, by the bill imposing it, pledged itself that it should only cover the incomes of 18C9. Jt is a breach of the public faith to extend it any longer. It is no longer needed. The war is over. The credit of the government Im been re-established. The treasury is rall What occasion i3 there for a war tax now ? What occasion for sucli a tax-the most inquisitorial, lite most unequal, the most oppressive that can be devised ? And further, as we have had occasion to show in a previous issue of THE NEW?, the tax itself is an infraction of thc consti? tution-the instrument from which Congrc3s derive? the power of taxation. It is a direct j tax, and a burden ol this sort must bo ap? portioned, as tlic income tax cannot be, ac? cording to thc population of thc States. A direct tax must be levied upon States, not as haring so much money, but as having so much people. That this regulation would produce unjust discrimination in some in? stances is clear enough; but iri3 equally idear that it would bo infinitely better than the system that now prevails. For our part we almost consent to surren? der our o?ijoclions to the in como tax when we contemplate its result in the Connecticut elections. The Shermans and Drakes of Congress cannot play their m id antics for? ever. Tho people are willing to sustain tho government in the discharge of its legiti? mate functions. Tlicy have not yet recov? ered from the sentimental extravagance which, ignoring st ttcm.inship and peaceful councils, squandered so much blood and treasure for th3 maintenance of thc integri? ty of the republic. But they will not con? sent lo ty? bamboozled and swindled by the most unscrupulous political gamblers that ever controlled thc destinies of a grrvit country. There is nota man in Congress whn can? not declaim about "tin rebellion." Hu: tho people uro asking something more than ?lo? quent declamation. Thpy soe pretty clearly that the party in power want money, whet lier for war or for poaco, or for educa? tion, whether for St. Thomas, or Alaska, or San Domingo, whether according to tho law or against the law-only money, and always money. And they begin to say, let us have a change in our rulers, and, per? haps, we may keep some change in our pockets, as wc used to do in the good old times. THE "Code or Procedure," or copy of the Now York Code, cost tho State $10,500. TUE State constabulary cost $33,000, and $1500 salary for Chief Constable Hubbard. WHY i.s it necessary to give $9300 03 con? tingent fun 1 to thc different department orti cers of the State ? THE expenses of t,hft general elections of lS70areset down at $15,000. Four years ago S10C0 was enough. ? ?. tm <* > WE invite special attention to the letter on the subject of "planting short cotton on thc "sea islands," printed in another column. THE whole expenses of the State Govern? ment this year (exclusive of interest,) are four linns U3 much U3 they were three years ?go. ,,?.,'. Tnn total appropriations for carrying on the State Government were $120,000 in 136C, and arc $1,070,000 for 1S60-including interest. TUE legislative expenses in 1867 were set down at $43,000. The session just closed cost, according to Senator Leslie, about $200,000. Is there not a pressing need of reform? THE CITIZENS' PARTY vote Aye! Tur. "extraordinary expenses" of thc State Government this year are set down at $140,000. This is just ene hundred and forty thousand itfgntnents on '.he side of re? trenchment. This alone will draw thousands of voters to the CITIZENS' PARTY The Y ixt ans of the Birch. THE birching of young ladies in boarding schools is still a subject for detailed discus? sion in the English magazines, as will be seen by extracts we publish elsewhere. The exposure to which these English girls sub? mit with such an humble grace, would of itself be considered au outrage upou our American daughters, and yet we are contin? ually told that tho class which these birched young ladies represent does not yield inmod? esty and reliuement to any girlhood on the face of the earth. The policy of whipping early and often find3 many advocates who quote Solomon with a stinging gusto : but they are generally thc whippers instead of the whipped, and, as the voice of the latter, the confessions of these school girls to the virtues of birch twigs applied to the bare llesh Ls entertaining if not valuable. THE colored men of Cincinnati who be? came voters by thc adoption of th? Fifteenth I amendment met a few days ago to consider ? thc nature of their new political duty. After some discussion they determined that it was not advisable for them, at this time, to pledge themselves to support either thc Re? publican or Democratic party; but this they declared: They would never vote for a high tariff. ? ----"-ail i ? IN 18(57 thc salaries of the State officers and judges amounted to $50,800. This year they amount to S1G7.S00. Under thia head thc cost of the State Government is 7no/-e I than trebled in three yearn. Taxpayers, mark this ! GOVERNOR SCOTT'S militia i3 to cost fifty thousand doliars thia year.
