VANITY TAXES
There is a description of taxation in Eng
land remarks tlic Philadelphia News
which, in a manner, is wholly unknown
here. We arc as vaiu, as a people, as any
upon the face of the earth, but there is an
individual vanity from which we are nearly
free The gentleman who was offered a
pinch of snuff, and responded, in a dignified
manner, that he had no small vices, must
have had American blood in his veins. We,
as a people, have no small vanities, though
it may be aliedged that we deal in the article
wholesale.
As every one knows, about one-third of
the whole British revenue is obtained by
taxation levied through the Custom House
That third amounts, in each year, to about
$73,000,000, and is realised from a few prin
cipal imports, chiefly of sugar, tea, tobacco,
wine, spirits, coffee, and corn. The internal
revenue arises from stamps, excise, land and
assessed taxes, postage, and the Property
tax They are not so utterly mean, across
the water, to tax luclfer matches, pins and
needles, thread and cotton, and such neces
sary trifles in ordinary use, but they tax
superfluities, and particularly such as admin
ister to the personal vanity of those who en
ioy them. For instance, and one sealing a
letter with his crese or full armorial bearings,
roust pay $4 a year, and fit if he is charg
eable with the duty of assessed taxes for any
carriage. Where there is a carriage, there
roust be a servant to look after it perhaps
another to mind the horse or horses. Now,
as people can generally dispense with car
riages and flunkies, it is right that each
should pav for bis particular vanity; there
fore the duty is *5 a year upon every male
servant over 18 years old, and halt that lor
male servants under that age, or for under
gardeners, or as under-game-keepers. If a
servant be of the old-school and wear pow
der on his head, there is an extra tax off 5
on each man. This yielded $5,000 last year !
The duty upon carriages varies, according to
size and grandeur, from $3, when drawn by
a pony not exceeding thirteen hands in
height, to a full-grown carriage, drawn by
iwo or more horses. If a person, wishing to
play the landed gentleman and sportsman,
desires to shoot grouse, partridges, or pea
sants, at the appointed seasons, he must not
pull a trigger until he has first “stepped up
to the Captain's office,' 1 and taken out a
.rame license. The price of this is slo a
year, aud if he has a keeper, $lO extra must
tie paid for him. Shooting is not much good
without a setter or retriever, and the annual
tax upon each dog used iu the pursuit oi
game is $3. If a man keeps greyhounds, the
tax is $45 ; and if he keep a pack of hounds
he may have to pay $197. Shooting and
hunting are luxuries, (as well as vanities, in
very many cases,) and those who indulge iu
ibemmust “pay for their whistle," as saga
cious Franklin said. There cannot be hunt
ing without horses, and the dealers in them
must take out an annual license, costing $l2O
in London, aud half that amount iu the
country.
The animals themselves, so often kept for
show aud from mere ostentation, do not pass
scot-free. If a man keeps a fast horse, the
public revenue benefits by bis pride or van
ity, according to the creature's rank in equine
aristocracy. For a pony, $1 50 per annum ;
lor the same, if kept for riding or drawing a
carriage chargeable with duty, $2 50; for a
horse over thirteen hands high, $2 50; for a
horse of the same height, kept for riding or
carriage use, $5 50; and for every horse kept
or used for racing, S2O.
A parliamentary return of the proceeds of
the British financial year ending March
1866, shows how these various subjects of
taxation contribute to the revenue. It is
not worth while to go into details, but we
may say that, in the'year 1865, the sum of
$387,500 was derived from armorial bearings:
$1,066,120 from servants ; $1,051,645 from
dogs, and $301,820 from the duty on gold
and silver plate. We add, for the informa
tion of the curious in such matters, that,
within the same financial year, the national
revenue of England was benefited by the tax
on inhabited houses to the extent of $4,584,-
610; by probates on wills, administrations,
legacies, and successions (on which there is
no local impost whatever;, $17,246,770 ; by
the stamp on bills of exchange, $3,846,545;
and by the penny stamp on receipts, drafts,
Ac., $2,501,250.
However, these last items are digression
si What we wanted to show was, that
English taxation is based upon two simple
principles, namely ; to lean heaviest upon
luxuries, superfluities, and vanities, and, as
far as practicable, not to lean at all upon
mere necessaries. These last do not yield
much, but their collection is cumbrous as
well as costly, and they irritate the minds of
the masses, who chiefly have to pay the
taxes upon them. The rich are the proper
objects for taxation, and the less wealthy
classes ought to be dealt lightly with. A
clerk or small tradesman will be taxed if he
wears a watch to show him how time pas
ses , but a millionaire expends large sums on
paintings, statues, bronzes, rich carvings;
stained glass, marqueterie, bijoutsrie, and
articles of virtu, and is taxed very lightly
indeed, comparison being tairly made, for
the gratification of his taEte— which may be
rtal, but is just as likely to be oniy ostenta
tious. When our system of Internal taxa
tion is remodelled, (it is likely to be perma
nent and therefore ought to be just,) let us
hope that rich men and poor men will not
be taxed alike. Tne necessaries of life
should be free of taxation, as far as practi
cal, the superfluities, on the other hand,
ana above all, the vanities, should be dealt
strongly with. Os this there cannot be any
doubt—except in the minds of the wealthy,
who ought to be squeezed for the benefit of
the Republic and for the relief of their poorer
and humbler and struggling tellow-citizens.
Toy-Making in Uenuany.
in Germany the wood work, so far as Eng
lish importers know anything of it, is mostly
in the form of small trinkets and toys for
children The production of these is immense
In the Tyrol and near the Thuringian forest,
in the middle states of the ill-organized con
federacy, and wherever forests abound, there
the peasants spend much of their time in
making toys. In the Tyrol, for example,
there is a valley called the Grodnerthal,
about twenty miles long, in which the rough
climate and barren soil will uot suffice to
grow corn for the inhabitants, who are rather
numerous Shut from the agricultural labor
customary in other districts, the people earn
their bread chiefly by wood carving. They
make toys of numberless kinds (in which
Noah's ark animals are very predominant) of
the soft wood of the Siberian pine—known
to the Gusmans as ziebel inusskiefer. The
tree is of slow giowth, found on the higher
slopes of the valley, but now becoming
scarce, owing to the improvidence of the
peasants in cutting down the forests without
saving or planting others to succeed them.
For a hundred years and more the peasants
have been carvers. Nearly every cottage is a
workshop. All the occupants, male and fe
male, down to very young children, seat
themselves round a table, and fashion their
little bits of wood. They use twenty or
thirty different kinds of tools, under the ma
gic of which the wood is transformed into a
.dog, a lion, a man, or what not. Agents
represent these carvers in various cities in
Europe, to dispose of the wares.
It is said that the Prince of Wales will not
go to the naval felts at Cherbourg, because
there will be no prince of the blood to re
ceive him, and the French Minister of Ma
rine (Laubat) also refuses to go, because
there will be no English Lord of the Admir
alty present. A contemporary ts reminded

An Imperial leremony in Raula.
inn or in uaut irrxbi.m.
On the Ist of August the Grand Duke
Alexander Alexandrovitch of Russia attained
his twenty first year, sod the occasion nm
celebrated as a national holiday By the
death of the late Czarevitch, this young man
is the heir apparent to the Russian throne
The Loudon Daily News correspondent thus
describes the ceremony:
“The municipality have caused triumphal
arches to be erected on the road leading to
the chateau where their Imperial Majesties
past the night, and an unlimited quantity <>t
gunpowder aud BeDgal lights burned,
wind and weather permitting. The grand
charges of the court, the officers ot the
guards, and their ladies, the representative
of foreign courts aud their respect;*; staffs,
and in tact all those who have the entree to
the Winter Palace, are theie iu gala attire—
the men in their uniforms of state, the ladies
of the court in the handsome and pictur
esque dress of the country. It is ail these
that I see driving to the palace to take part
I iu ft pageant of which the official papers
i have published a programme here condensed
The members of the imperial family, the
high officers of State and the diplomatic
body assembled in the chapel of the palace
A mass and If having been perlormed
by the Archbishop of St. Petersburg and
Novgorod, the heir apparent, with right arm
uplitted, swore lealty to his father and the
empire ; he took solemn oath that he would
uphold and maintain the laws of the country,
and stand by the rights of his family to the
crown and sceptre, as regulated by the act
of sucession.
“A friend who has just returned from w it
nessing the ceremony describes it as most
impressive. The heir apparent, dressed iu
the handsome blue uniform of the Cossacks,
whom he commands by right of primogeni
ture, read the prescribed oath from a paper,
with a voice strong, clear and unhesitating.
He then advanced to a table, beside which
the crown, orb and seeptre of tire Romanoff
dynasty were deposited, and subscribed to
the oath which he had registered before God
and man. The Vice-Chancellor of the Em
pire, Prince Uortchakoff, advanced to receive
the document from his imperial highness.—
Then followed a prayer for the Czsarvitch of
all the Russias, during which every man
aud woman within the capel devoutly knelt.
“The poor Empress, I am told, looked
much affected, and her feelings reached the
climax when her second son came to claim
the felicitations she bad on a similar occasion
bestowed on her first-born, 9o recently torn
from her. The official programme turther
sets forth that the Czsarvitch, accompanied
by the members of the Imperial family, the
diplomatic corps, etc., proceeded from tin;
chapel to the Hall of St. George, where, with
one hand grasping the colors of the Cossack
tioops, he took the oath that he would ever
remain laitbiul, w ith the Cossacks under his
command, to his Majesty the Emperor. The
representatives of all the regiments of the
Guards were there with their colors to wit
noss the oath, which done they filed off at
the command of the Grand Duke Nicholas,
General-in-Chief of the Guards corps, sta
tioned in the vicinity ot ibis capital. It must
have been curious and suggestive to see the
imperial crown borne from the chapel to the
hall by the man who in 1653 did so much to
wards placiug it in jeopardy—the celebrated
Priuce Menchikoff.
THE FOrUtAB CELEBRATION.
“Following the example of every inhabi
tant of St. Petersburg who could find a ve
hicle to transport him, I drove out ot town
to the suburb known as ‘the islands,' where
the wealthier classes encamp during the hot
and dusty months of summer. My astonish
meut was great on observing the absence of
two or three triumphal arches which had
been thrown across the road leading to the
imperial chateau of Flaghin, where, as I
have already said, the Emperor and Empress
are now staying. The arches had been con
structed on a scale of much magnificence
The titeworks were to take place at the end
of the long road spanned by the arches, and
these were naturally to have been great at
tractions to the holiday-making populace.
Making immediate inquiry, I was informed
that the triumphal arches had been pulled
down at the desire of the Empress, which,
only known yesterday morning, was earned
into effect in three or four hours by a great
number of laborers. Three or tour hours
sufficed to destroy the handiwork of almost
twice as many days. Not a vestige of the
woodwork remained, and even the road was
swept clean within the appointed time.
Your readers here get a good insight into
the magical effect of autocratic power, while
they cannot hut sympathize with the feel
ings by which its exercise was prompted.
The afflicted mother saw uo reason for tri
umph ou such an occasion ; it was a day of
submission to the Divine will.and thtqhi ait re
fused to exult. This trait of character will
commend itself to the sympathies of sorrow
ing women, but its effect will be one of dis
appointment aud displeasure to the mem
bers of the municipality, at whose expense
the loyal manifestation, evidently encour
aged aud permitted by the authorities, had
been undertaken. The Empress had ap
parently only been apprised of their inten
tions yesterday morning, after a considerable
outlay ol labor and mouey had been made,
but of course these should be of no consid
eration when the feelings of a mother de
manded the sacrifice.
“But although mere were no triumphal
arches, the villas of the islands were beauti
fully illuminated. The fireworks were not
very successful, as rain had fallen In the af
ternoon. The people were out in great
crowds. The illuminations may have been
distasteful to the Emperor and Empress, but
it was necessary to impress forcibly upon
the people the fact that, although the Czare
vitch is dead, the Czarevitch yet lives!"
A CHARITABLE ACT.
The new Czarevitch has sent the following
latter to the proper official:
“Prince Alexander Arkadievitch: In
taking the most important step of my life,
and vowing devotion to my lather, aud in
his person to all Russia, my first thought
was to rnaik this day by an act of charity. I
herewith transmit you the sum -of six thou
sand roubles, requesting you to distribute
the same among the poorest inhabitants oi
the country. 1 shall be happy if it serve to
dry but a few tears or to provi4e bread tor a
few needy families; aud God will listen to
the prayers they will offer up in common
with me for the long life of our Emperor
Lord, and for the prosperity of the countiy
“Your well-wisher,
“Alexander.
A newspaper correspondent writes that
the Czarevitch is busily engaged in perfect
ing his education, which, according to the
rules affecting the younger sons of the im
perial family, had been chiefly a military one
during the lifetime of his brother. The Em
peror has commanded that, in the present
instance, the studies of the Czarevitch shall
be shared by the Grand Duke Vladimir, his
brother next in age. General Count Perov
ski, a nobleman of great talent and high In
tellectual culture, has been entrusted with
the superintendence of their studies.
In the year ending June 1, 1860, there
