Independent—Not Neutral! ~ THURSDAY, JULY 10, 1873. ■ 1 GRADUATED TAXATION. A feeble effort is being made to re vive the odious method of taxation, which was withiu a few years abolished, amnf the execration of all those who understood its working, under the form of the income tax. Wo refer to an effort to ascertain the precise amount and na ture of ever y one's possessions, and to t*x him accordingly. ’! ho income tax applied this principle by endeavoring to hscertain each individual’s receipts every year and collect a percentage thereof; but so many allowances and deductions had to be made, such a variety of circumstances complicated the problem of assessment, and there wore bo many ways in which the true atuouut could be concealed, that the effort to ascertain was abandoned. — The plan, which was always a tavoiite one, with the masses uufamiliar with the actual working of reveuue laws, has been revived under the form of a “ grad. - %u&cdt tax” on possessions, instead of re ceipts; on property, instead of income. Like all such plans, it involves another object beside revenue. It does not con aider bow the funds needful to the sup port of necessary government can be raised with the least cost of collection. It 6ets out by assuming that there is a necessity aud -a possibility of so legis lating as to collect from every individ ual his exact share, that the possession of great Wealth is always an evil, and that it is desirable aud practicable to limit the acquisitions of men. Acting ou these assumptions the schema pro poses to exempt property below five thousand dollars, to impose on properly between five thousand and ten thousand dollars a tax of one-fourth of oue per cent., ten to fifteen thousand, one-half of one per ceut., aud so on in an ascend ing scale till five millions are reached, which are to be taxed fifty per cent. Absurd as this scheme may appear to those who understand such subjects, it ha? in it elements of great and sudden popularity that demand for it a respect ful consideration. The desire to make the (so-called) rich bear the chief bur dens of taxation is a favorite one with many persons, aud any suggestion which appears to make this idea feasible, is likely to be cordially welcomed and earnestly advocated. The assumptions, on tfhieh the propositi cn is based de serve careful examination. That it is not possible to ascertain hod collect his exact share from each individual, experience has fully shown. That it is not necessary, even though practicable, has been pointed out re peatedly. As every person who pays a tax includes as much of it as be can in the price of whatever commodity or service he sells, and others with whom he deals do the same, a tax iu an actively commercial country is speedily distributed over the whole community, ! no matter from whom the tax collector ! obtains the money; aud the efforts of! every man to shift the burden from .. ..... himself result iu a jwetty equal division of .the pressure, unless such divisiou is prevented by absurd and meddlesome legislation. By the operation of this left undisturbed—the effort to distribute taxation is rendered need less, while attempts to distribute it unequally —as proposed iu the plan now under consideration:—are in most cases completely defeated and nullified. l*ut a high tax on real estate, and the renters of houses must pay a large part thereof. They will raise the price of their own articles, and the landlord will have a pajft to pay in that form, it is true ; but a supposition that any tax can be dis tributed according to an assumed scale, is an utter delusion. The possession of great wealth is an evil or a good ac- J oordipg to the use men make of it; and . if a man does not some how do more; good than harm with his proporty, he : is tolerably sure to lose it. That it is j desirable tq limit the acquisitiveness of; men, deperibs on whether they acquire; property with the free consent o| the owners. If tl ey do, it is little short of | robbery to forbid it; and such prohibi-! lions, as Horace Greeley well said, are direct incentives to waste and gluttony, and positive discouragements of econ omy. It is impracticable, too, to limit the aCijuisitov'euosS of men if honestly grained. Any shrewd lawyer can ppint out a score hf'modes whereby property can be held and controlled without ap pearing to own it; and penalties on evasion will simply stimulate ingenuity in contriving means to escape them. — To require every man to disclose the nature and extent of bis possessions would be tyrannical and inquisitorial; while to undertake the discovery with out or against his consent would be to increase enormously the host of revenue detectives, spies, aud informers by which the country h,s been largely-demoralized. Confederate Documents Lost I It was stated some time ago that o j number of documents that had been de posited in the public archives at Wash ington were missing. It was charged, also, that Gen. Baden, Gen. Grant's bi ographer, the Amcrienn Consul at Liv erpool, had carried offn number of them which were retained in his possession. Later discoveries show that all the pa pers relating to the secret history of “the rebellion” are missing—those, we presume that Col. Pickett sold at a round price', iueluded; A special dis patch from Washington to the Boston Post says that: “Within a few days, it has been dis covered that all the archives of the War Departmcut pertaining to the secret history of the rebellion have been sto len. It is known that they were all in the War Offieo wtien Mr. StarUon re tired. He had them systematically briefed and stowed away in a safe place, and, had he lived and remained in pub lic life, they would probably have figured largely in preventing the ap pointment of men to office who .have since shown that they were no better fitted for the civil service than they were for positions of trust and high command in the army. These private archives covered a period of time from the first battle of Bull Run down to the surrender of Lee’s army. They embraced orders for courts martial, with their findings—some of them sen tencing the offenders to he shot—reeords of which the people were ignorant.” * [From the Atlanta Constitution.J Important to Planters. We call the attention of farmers, planters, _ and others who may furnisti tobacco to their employes, to the cor respondence below. It will bo teen that tax must be paid by tliem : M KRRIWETUEIi, Ga., J Ul)0 24, 1878. J. A. JfoUzcltm, F*q., Collector Internal JUvenm. Sir,--I aiu farming near Flat Shoals in said county. I bay tobacco for my employes,-and furnish it to them only as they call for it. * * * Do you think that I should get a stamp as a manufactured tobacco dealer ? I furnish only my own hands and do not soil to other parties. Yours respectfully. Atlanta, Ga , June 28, 1878. Sir, —In your communication of the 24th inst., inquiring whether the sale of tobacco by you to your employes ouly readers you liable to the special tax, I have honor to say that by sec. 59 of act July 20tli, 1868, as amended, every person whose business it is to sell ! or offer for sale manufactured tobacco, ! snuff, or cigars, is regarded as a dealer in manufactured tobacco.' Hence it will be readily seen that j any person who furnishes his employes with manufactured tobacco in the man ner indicated in yonr letter, whether it be for cash or by charging them with it is regarded as a manufactured tobsyi- Cos dealer and liable to pay the special tax of $5 per annum. Very respectfully, J. A. Holtzci.aw, Collector. Bermuda Grass.—Captain George iW. Gift of Memphis Teunessee writes to the “Southern Cultivator.” 1 beg permission to shako hands with your correspondent who wrote in the May number about Bermuda grass.— Doubtless he will earn the sneers of most of-the “practical” men of the coun try, yet nevertheless ho is right, You hear that a steady stream of immigrants pours into Texas from those States cast of the Mississippi river.— These people are in search of good pas ture—cheap meat is the attraction.— Plant the millions of acres of worthless land on this side of the river in Bermu da grass, and we have a Texas without treveling, Bermuda grass will make our poor old fields better sheep walks than the foot-hills of California.” Yes, in Middle Georgia we have a > Texas without northers and watered ! with perennial springs and living . brook . , Woman! to the Front! In the audacious attempt to Afi ican pe the* 8 nth, say (p the Mobile Jleyi&ter, tho designing and ignorant men who have assumed theouiumof that humiliat ing task have apparently ignored that most important clement of civilized so ciety— woman d A Beauregard—a Hays—a Gibson false to raco and country—and forget* ful of tho precious lives which have been sacrificed to build up their fame—now sunk in the darkness of contempt and execration—may pledge their oiiTiJtuith to the ‘‘unification” of races whom the Creator has east in widely distinct moulds; mid reckless of the oeop dam nation brought by themselves on their own names, may succeed in assimilat ing their own fallen nature to that of inferior beings; but they possess neither the right nor tho power to degrade to an equality with themselves that oilier half of the human family whom Got) litis—jointly with man—entrusted the inheritance of the Earth! These eleventh-hour converts to “unification” and miscegenation may invite their male associates to their own bed and board, and lie down with them in promiscuous and revolting congenial ity ; but they never shall—they never can—bring the noble-women of the South to their own degraded level! In their sycophantic adulutiofi of the race rapidly sinking out of sight, and whose fast ebbing life is only galvanized into temporary activity by the poisonous touch of a corrupt political system, those men, who proclaim unbounded equality even unto the home and social circle, violently trample upon the rights of mothers, wives and sisters, and like the Athenians of old, cast out their virgins to the Minotaurs of Radicalism ! But will those noble women submit to this odious aud cowardly ransom ? Will they, whose loius have borne the, fallen heroes who sleep in the dust of a thousand battle fields, permit the faint hearted survivors of the struggle to buy an ignominious peace at such an infa mous price ? Will those women forget that they, too, have received in all its purity the sacred inheritance of a com mon ancestry and that they cannot, without sacrilege, transmit it to their own descendants tainted and polluted in its fountain head ? When nations become so degenerate and corrupt that men are only fit to wear the shackles of servitude, history teaches us that wotueU,'divinely inspir ed by never drying principles of devo tion to race and country, step up to the front of the arena, and like the Ro man matron passing to her trembling husband the dagger dyed in her own blood, and exclaiming “Take it—it hurts not!” shows by her example that death is preferable to disgrace. And to them now we imploringly ap peal to cast away from them, with loathing and contempt, the degenerate sons of their noble sires, aud to spurn them with horror from their maternal or conjugal embraces. Let them -e-vindicatc their impre scriptible rights to their share of that heir-loom of greatness, virture and self denial, which has shed much brilliancy on their name, and future generations will rise up aud call them blessed ! The Capabilities of the South.— The Amherst (Va.) Enterprise discour ses on the capabilities of the Southern States, and urges the use of our own materials nnd products for manufactur ing and business purposes. The build ing up of the home markets is the first desideratum. Its remarks are well worth the consideration of the Southern people, and all who are interested in the future welfaie*and prosperity of the South. Wo quote : “Suppose all the cotton, tobacco and grain are manufac tured ‘on the hill;’ suppose the hides, horns and bones of the cattle are con verted into harness, shoes, saddles, bri dles, buttons, comb( &o, in our own towns; suppose the iron of Virginia, Tennessee, - Alabama—of the whole South and West—is turned into machi nery and utensils, from the steam en gine to the nail, from the coiumbiad to 1 the cambric needle, at home; suppose the forests of the South and West are turning to use at home, from the cedar bucket to the live oak frigate.— Our hickory will make carriages; our sweetgurn, lasts; our maple, shoe-pegs. If we work up all our wool and wood, our iron and copper, our cotton, tobacco and grain; make and rofinc'our own su gar ; make our own glass, earthenware and paper; what need have we for other than a homo market ? Our cities can build their own ships, and transport the manufactured products of their own back countries. Now what do we need ? Power? We have, from Texas to Mar land, the finest water-power, and abundance of coal, iron and timber.— Capital? it will come from Europe, from the North (vide Sprague with a Georgia, cottoD-factory), and from our own people- as they save a little clear money We nrf coniminp to it ' Tin: Motipcs as FmiirK.Ks.—Gen. I Moaeluiin’s report of the Modoc fight ing, says that during the war tho Mo-, dees killed and wounded about three I soldiers for every warrior in their force, at no time numbering more thin 00,1 and that during tho first three days’ j fight this hand not only held out agaiust 800 troop-, armed with every appliance of modern warfare, hut kept tho passage open for n retreat, which the Warm , Spring Indian scouts-eould not close. 1 Meaehuni’s idea of tho best policy for: the future is that all tribal lines be abolished, and the Indians ho made amenable to tho laws, and he placed on ' t’ c same footing with other murderers, j Fatal Dim,.—Our New Orleans dispatches this morning state that a duel was fought yesterday, near that city, in which o<d. R, B. Rliett, Jr., j editor of the Picayune , and ex-Judge W. H. Cooley were principals. The latter fell, mortally tvounded, on the second fire. .Judge Cooley was counsel in the recent libel case against theiVru yune, and the difficulty which led to the duel grew out of imputations east upon Mr. Rliett by Mr. Cooley during the trial of that extraordinary case.— 1 The immediate cause of the challenge, ! it is to ho presumed, was a most bitter ly persoual card from gudge Cooley, which appeared in the Times of tho 27th, 1 in reply to a very temperate, but stern cditoral in the Picayune. Cooley be longed to the Kellogg faction, and the suit against the Picayune , in which a partizan jury, one-half of whom were negroes, gave a verdict for SIS,00!) damage, was based on an editorial de nouncing .the action of the fraudulent Board of Commissioners, by whom Kellogg and his partizans were given the officers of the State to the exclusion of the candidates elected by the people. Very Significant and very Impu dent Advice. —When the Attorney General of the United States replied to the citizens of Louisiana to attend to their own business, and lot politics alone, he but foreshadowed the whole plan of Gen. Grant's policy. lie don’t want tho people of the United States to have anything to do with politics. He wants the great mass of the people to work and accumulate property, so that they may ho able to pay taxes. But he wants them to leave the’government of the country to him and his family and friends. This is nothing mere nor less than a personal government, in other words a complete despotism. In the pure days of the republic, one of the .'Crvants of the people would not have dared to scud such a message to the people of n Great State. But the Grant dynasty don’t want the people to take any part in politics. They want politics to be left entirely to the office holders. The same ffing is made by some of Grant’s organs, at the farmers of the West; they don’t want them to meddle with politics. When the great mass of the people cease to take any in terest in politics tyrants reign supreme. —Federal Union. Finances of Southern States.— Ycry miserable is the condition of the finances of the cx-Corifederate States, and very rascally has been the whole course of the carpet-baggers who seized upon their governments when they were in a condition bad enough indeed, but who, to enrich, themselves in any way which could be devised, however dis honest, have managed to leave the States so terribly in debt that nothing is left for them but repudiation. North Carolina has no other resource—she is bankrupt. The or.ce rich State of Louisiana is in the same condition. Proud old Virginia has eoine to' semi repudiation, for she cannot pay her bonded debt. A few days ago a repre sentative of foreign bondholders had a conference with a number of leading j Virginians, who had arranged to meet ; him, when he explained to them the ef fect of their semi-repudiation measures, ; and they passed a resolution, in reply, | to the effect that the State was poor, | that the legislation came from the war | so# its effects, and that they would do the best which lay in their power, "with the tyessiug of Providence.” The comp- | trcller of the State of Florida makes up 1 rather a better show for his State in his annual report made up to April 1. - If Florida can actually come out of the ! Government of those who only seized j upon it for the purpose of plunder, j without being absolutely borne down' by debt, site is a highly fortun ate State, and as such will be envied by her sis- j ter State of the South.

If it can sing the glory of God, it can pray too. Call i on tho machine !” Some of the- army officers say that Gon. Sherman talks too much, and is too fond of telling the public what Gen. Sherman thinks. The newspaper cor respondents during the war uoticed that the General wanted a tnonoply of letter writing. Ho eamc very near hanging one poor devil for not under standing this point. o ♦- Beforc*the war of 1812 th‘c pay of Congressmen was six dollars per day. It was raised after the war and then reduced. In tho pay was raised to $3,000 per year, the members taking their back pay for that Congress. Iu 1806 it was raised to $5,000, the mem bers again taking their back pay. In 1873 the pay was raised to $7,500, with the accompanying “salary grab.”' The order of the Patrons of Husban dry is beginning to suffer from the bc settieg evil of all independent move ments, judging from the following from ail 1 own journal: It is plain to see that in sveral town ships petty demagogues, disappointed office-seekers and ax-grinders have crept into the clubs and granges, and by the use of means with which they are fa miliar, they are endeavoring to run the popular movement for selfi-h and per sonal ends. The farmers, as a class, have no lot i or part m any such plan. W lint they want is simple justice and a decent respect for their rights by cor porate monopolies, ai.d they know that, any stepping down, or lowering of the objects of their organization into a fight and scramble for the loaves and fishes of county office, will serve to degrade their cause, and hinder instead of aid ing it.
