: : The Income torial ¢ wews + mmciometlegrar acter of the income tax rem derié edryobnotious to the people of; Met's Avsocistio: in: Missoaris © ~ the country, and there is an almost uni~vereal ‘demand for ite abolition. A __gteat reduction will be acceptable, but has been.announced by the Secretary . been issued by thé President of Colored ‘It is now certain_that this amend‘ment will _and the colored ‘the responsibilities of a citizen. It is: ig will not satisfy the public. Califor_tiians bave greater cause for complaint in regard to this tax than the feople of any other State, as in proportion to wealth and population the people of this State are taxed far beyond any other, as may be seen from the report of the Internal Revenue Commissioner for 1868 California, with three memvers of Congress, paid a tax on incomes (not including dividends, etc.jof $2,026,$8441; Illincis, with a representation ‘of fourteen members in the House of Representatives, paid $2,046,000; Indiana, with eleven members of Congress, paid $487,000; Maryland, with five members, paid, $1,223,0005 Connecticnt, with six meinbers, paid $995,900 ; Maine with five members, paid $247,000; Iowa, with six members, paid $275,000; and the great State of Ohio, with nineteen representatives in the popular branch of Congress, paid only $2,152,000, or, practically, no greater amount of income tax than California, with one-fifth her population and a representation of three! There are only. six States that pay more Internal Revente than California, nam ly: New York, $35,000,000; Ohio, $16,000,000, Pennsylvania, $15,000,000; Illinois, Missouri, $5,000,000; California, $4,The ruling of the Céiiimissioner, re“quiring all incomes returned coin, to be reduced-tocurrency, and_allowing. revenue officers to fix the rates is anoth% . ed for the rights *of all men ; All honor to’ the Radical Republican party ; step by step they have contendfirst for our freedom ; then, for civil rights; and lastly for political rights. In every effort they have been succesefal. The battle bas been won. How shall we celebrate the great vont! By Many plans have been sug. gested, unanimous approbation. 1 recommended the following : On the day the proclamation is issued by the Secretary of the United States announcing that the Fifteenth Amendment has been ratified: by the required number of States, and is a partof the Constitution, or on a day Named as soon thereafter as possible ; ag our thanks are dae to God, the giver of “every good and perfect gift,” who ruleth in the kingdoms of men: 1; That at 9 o'clock «a. M. in our churches and places of worship. and from nine until twelve o'clock, offer up hymns of praise and prayers of thanksgiving to our Almighty Father for the countless rich blessings we now enjoy, especially for the attainment of the full rights of American citizens. We are taught, before entering upon any great undertaking, to first implore the aid.of the Diety. This is traly an important advance, no less than assuming the responsibilites of citizens of this vast and atill growing Republic. We are now no more aliens in the land of our birth. 2. At one o'clock-P. m. let the differ-ent eocieties-and associations assemble atany namied place, with the citizens on foot-and in earriages and other conveyances, and form a jon and march through the principal streets to a farden or hall; and “there have addeesses from one or more chosen speakrs. _ 8. At night assemble in the churches submit to,and to which the people of all @her States are not subject. The cost of living is also greater where the exemption are the same. The great demand for such taxation no longer exists and the tax ought to be abolished. The Committee on Ways and “Means have reported in favor of a—reduction of $30,000,000 in incomes, Congress ought to go further than this, and abolish entirely all taxation upon 4ncomes.--This would give better satis‘faction than any change or modification of tariff could give. Indeed the abolition of taxes on incomes would hide from the people a. multitude of sins. ALATE number of the Commercial Herald, gave a review of the tree lunch saloons in San Francisco, and claims. that. of this class of various grades, ~“theré are one thousand three hundred and thirty. The majority have but crackers, cheese, and some such conve. nient grub, but a great many set out sumptuous repasts—soups, fish, game, » meats, done up in the best styles. That paper gives the cost perday of a medium lunch at $38. This is an actual and net fancied cost. It figures from this that the monthly outlay for free lunches in San Francisco amounts to ever $100,000. 2 and have lectures and addresses from: instructive speakers, also meet in the different halls and places of amusement and thus close the great day of joy. I would suggest that all persons of color close their places of business for the day. Also that no intoxicating liquorbe drank that day. It is better never to drink from the cup that steals our senses, Let it be aday of pure and In the above i have proposed a crude . plan for the célebration of this great day.

Ifthere wasa dollar raised for that purpose we are not aware of the names. of the parties who. paid it. Stages.Three stages left this city yesterday, crowded. with passengers bound for San Francisco to attend ‘the Grand Concert to be given by Camilla Ureo, It wasa very rough day to travel. Mining Location. John Smith and others have located 1600 feet of mining ground, adjoining Grant & Co. on the west, in Rough and Ready township, and running in an easterly direction. mt Personal, J.

The cars were delayed two hours owing to the severity of the storm. The cars reached Tar TarmtietH State.—The Fifteenth Amendment was adopted on the 18th instant in the Nebraska Legisla‘ture. PRESIDENT GRANT having sent to for Postmaster at Covington, Ky., the . New York Heraid says: = And why not? The father is a worthy citizen, has proved a good officer, is populaf among his fellow townsmen, and is willing to continue doing much limiting his father to this little office, and the old gentleman, in being entirely satisfied with it, are to be commended, for their modesty and their nice appreciation of the delicate question of family appointments—a matter upon which by unscrupulous partisans, great injustice has been done to Gen. Grant. AN interesting event occurred in a Catholic church in Seymour, Connecticut, A couple presented themselves at. the altar to be joined in the bonds of wedlock, and, when that part of the charge had been read to the congregation, “If any persons present know any just cause why this couple should not be juined,” ett., “let them now make it known, or forever after hold their peace,” a lady rose in the audience, and . said she had a few objections ofa serious. character.
