The Income Tax for 1870.
1'ytiie Internal Revnae laws, as
amended iu 1S70, it is the duty of ev
ery citizen wiiose gross income last
year exceeded two thousand dollars,to
make and render to the Assistant As
sessor of the division in which he lives
return of tiiis income for taxation
or lipfore the first day of March.
The ney-lect to do this leaves it In the
power uf the Assessor to make a re
turn for him according to the best in
formation he cau obtain, and to in
crease the amount of tax fifty per
cent, as a penalty for the neglect. The
duty of making these returns has been
very K'-nerally neglected, under the
expectation that Congress would abol-
h the txx, Out it is now improbable
thut anything will be done at the
present .session, and, hi order to avoid
ttie penalty, citizens cannot be too
prompt in handing in their returns.
The taxable income of each person
determined by adding together the
following items: The gains or profits
business for the year, the wages or
salary receive!! lor services frota any
government, corporation, other em
ployer; the rents received from houses
lands; the interest on notes bonds,
mortgages, or on money lent on
or no security; tbe profits or spec
ulation in stocks, bonds or gold, and
those obtained upon the sale of anv
or lands during the year which
oeen purcnasea witmn two years
preceding, and the dividends upon
stocks or shares, except that the divi
dends of corporations which have
themselves withheld the tax from
stockholders, and paid it to the Unit
ed States, lire not to be included, nor
that pin t of the fulary of officers of
tho.L'uite l Stut-js from which the tax
been deducted at the time of pay-pT-ut.
nor any pension paid to a sol
dier or sailor.
From the segregate income, as thus
determined, each tax-p' Hi de
duct t!i natioual, state, county, mu

year; nil losses in business,not includ

remainder is the taxable income, on
which two and a half percent, is to
levied and paid. This tax is due
payable on or before the 80th day

By maintaining so long its hoia on

We give a few dispatches of the sit
uation. LoxTJOJt, April 11. The Nationals
were attacked at Asnleres, and claim
a victory.
Supplementary elections for the
Commune have been adjourned.
The strength of the Army of Paris
is two hundred thousand.
Torpedoes have been placed in the
avenue of the Grand Army.
The newspapers Siecle and Temps
have been suppressed.
The Versailists are complete mas
ters of the situation at Neuilly, but
spare the inhabitants as far as possible
from bombardment. The fire of Fort
Mont Valerien is consequently slow.
There was sharp musketry firing yes
terday in the Bois de Boulogne.
Paris, April 12, Xoon, viaLoxDOX,
10:30 P. M. A loud and uninterrupt
ed cannonade has been kept up, since
last evening, between Chatillon and
the southern forts. Infantry are also
engaged, and the noise of the mitrail
leuses and musketry has been inces
sant since 5 o'clock this morning.
The cannonading around Neuilly,
Porte Maillot and Porte des Ternes
has been resumed, and is as violent
as that on the south. Fighting is now
going on in Bois de Boulogue and at
Asnieres.
The Commune are forwarding re-
enforcement to the troops engaged.
The wouuded are coining in large
numbers. The losses are heavy.
The official reports of the Commune
claim that tlie ersailles forces were
repulsed Tuesday evening in an attack
on tbe southern torts, ana tnat tneir
loss was heavy, while thatof theCom
munlsts was very light. The Com
mune believe that the attack was in
tended to make an attempt to carry
the Maillot eate by sunrise.
A rumor comes from the vanguard
quarter, in the southern part of the
cLv. that the Communists have lost
the Park-of Issv. where they were in
trenched, and that the commandant
of Fort D'Issy has been shot by his
own men.
Paris, April 12 Evening. Porte
Maillot has been shattered by the guns
of Fort alerien. The cannonade
previous lasted all day.' numerous
shells reaching the Arc de Triomphe.
It was Intended to disperse bodies of
Communist troops. The latter, ad
vancinz from Choisy Le Koi, were
driven back on the Orleans Railway,
which has been cut by Versailles
troops. Tlie condition of Paris is un
changed.
Losxk)??. April 13. A Times' speci
al from Versailles says that a column
of the insurgents advanced to Clamart
without meeting opposition. Thiers
is opposed to bringing on a decisive
action until the 50,000 additional men
shall have re-euforced the Versailles
army.
Paris, April 13. Gen. Dombrowski
reports to the Communal committee
that the troops under bis command
are doing excellent service; they al
ready hold three-fourths of the town
of Xeuilly, and hope to have posses
sion of the bridge across the Seine to
night. TheCri du Peuple says the
Versailles troops have been driven
from .Xeuilly and were flying toward
Courbevoie. The attack made yes
terday by the Versailles forces was a
failure. The Orleans Railway has
been cut by Versailles troops. There
was a heavy but interrupted cannon
ade during the whole of last night,
which has grown more violent this
morning. Fort Mont Valerien is fir

Commune are personally on tbe field
to encourage their wearied troops.

The Commune, considering the col
umn In the Place Vendome a barbar
ous monument, a symbol of brute
force and false glory, and a negation
fraternity, have decreed its demoli
tion. The Mot D'Ordre claims that the
Nationals now occupy the whole of
Neuilly, and expects a general attack
to be made to-night by the army of
Versailles.
Paris, April 16. Desperate fight
ing, resulting iu victories for the Com
mune, is reported. Five consecutive
attacks made on Vanvres were re
pulsed, with great slaughter. The
losses of the Government troops were
dreadful. At Neu:IIy the com bat was
fierce, but the Communists gain
ground steadily. Their hopes are now
raised to the highest pitch.
Paris, April 17. The Communists,
after a severe battle, occupied the
whole of Neuilly, capturing all the en
emy's artillery and two flags. The
enemy also lost two thousand men in
killed and wounded and five hundred
prisoners. The loss of tbe Commu

now bombarding Neuilly. The Ger

TROUBLES IN FRANCE. The Meaning of It.
[From the New York Tribune.]
ing whereof we printed a report on
The "Cincinnati Movement" which
was at first a puzzle, is explained by
tne sayings at iu -nrst public meet
Saturday. Here is the point:
It is whispered softly iu the inner
circles of the Democratic wire-work
that their next candidate for Pres
ident must be (or nave recently been)
Republican. So tbe friends of sun
Republicans are oiling their favor
ites preparatory to getting them com
fortably swallowed by the Sham De
mocracy. Gen. Jacob Dolson Cox.
and ex-Secretary of the
Interior, is in this category, and Stan
ly Matthews & Co. arequalifying him
be the Jonah of the Democratic
whale. This explains the pertinacity
wnerewitn juage .aiattnews insisted
that the movementwas purely Repub
lican no Democrats admitted, Ac,
("Methinks the lady doth protest
much.") And this explains, too,
remarkable vagueness and rare
faction of General Cox's speech. A
candidate fcr President always talks
a Delphic oracle, so that his posi
tions may be equally acceptable to
men holding precisely opposite opin
ions.
We protest acraiust the essential dis
honesty of the Cincinnati operation.
Messrs. juaunews, uox a (Jo., talK as

KENTUCKY REPUBLICANISM.
KENTUCKY REPUBLICANISM. Address to the Republican Voters of
the Commonwealth.
In obedience to what seemed to be
the general desire of our party
tnrouhout the State, the Republican
Central Committee have called a State
Convention of the party, to be held at
Frankfort, on Tuesday, the 17th of
May next.
This is to be a delegate Convention,
and the basis upon which tbe number
of deiegat-ts is to be determined is one
delegate for every one hundred Re
publican votes cast at t:ie iai ton-
gressional election, and Dne for every
fraction or a nunarea exceeding ntty
votes; but in any case every county in
the State is entitled to two delegates.
It is all important that there shall
be a general representation of the Re
publicans of the State at this Conven
tion, and an immediate local organi
zation of tlie Republicans in the pre
cincts aud countiesi for tlie purpose of
selecting suitable delegates wearnst
ly recommended. Tlie-sutject should
be agitatad and discussed immediately
in every neighborhood and every
county, and the best men should be
selected as delegates. We have no
time to lose, and we ought to have a
large and enthusiastic Convention.
The fundamental principles of the
Republican party are founded In Jus
tice and equity. "Equal and exact
justice to all men" with "the perfect
equality of all citizens before the la w,"
are tbe principles which we profes to
take as oar guide. Ascltizeusof Ken
tucky, and as members of the Repub
lican party, we advocate such legisla
tion, both State and national, as shall
best accomplish the great object we
have in view. The State In its legis
lation should know nothing of men as
clastc; it should know them only as
citizena, all of whom (if uncharged
with crime) areentitled to equal rights
and privileges. I he humblest citizen
iu any and every part of theStateand
of the nation should be made perfectly
secure in his person and in his proper
ty) just because he is a citizen and has
committed no act to forfeit the rights
of citizenship. The Republican party
in Kentucky is pledged to the accom
plishment of these great purposes, and
the members of that party will be de
relict in the performance of their duty
as good citizens if they fail to use all
lawful means for that accompliment
The organization and perpetuation
of our party in Kentucky has irrown
mainly out or a denial or tnese iunua
mental principles and measures of
legislation on the part of the Demo
cratic party in this State. Many of
this party cling to the name of Demo
crat, while they are sworn foes of true
Democracy. This denial of Demo
cratic principles is patentto the world,
in the scandalously false and illiberal
provisions which still form a part of
our State Constitution. It is still fur
ther evidenced in the timid and cow
ardly action, and In the still more cow
ardly non-action, of our late Legisla
ture. By a prejudiced and persistnt
denial to a certain elass of hercitizens
to testify on all matters concerning
their persons and their property, Ken
tucky to-day stands alone, a hissing
and a bywoid to ail of her sister States.
This disgraceful fact stands confessed
by a very large number of our most
intelligent Democratic fellow citizens.
It can not truthfully be denied by
anybody, and the defense set np for
this state of things is as supremely sil
ly as it is palpably unjust. All shams
are mean anyhow, but the meanest
sham under the sun is a sham Democ
racy, "which keeps the word of prom
ise to tlie ear, but breaks it tt the
hope."
While this inequality of rights be
fore the law, and this insecurity of
person and of property exists, or is be
lieved to exist, the immense agricul
tural and mineral resources of our
State must remain, to a great extent,
undeveloped and therefore useless.
We may can upon immigration to
help us. as we have been calling for
many years past, butimmigratisn will
not come at our call. Intelligent for
eigners understand these matters, al
though we may retuse to understand
them ourselves. Insecurity of person
and property, or the denial to the citi
zen of equality of privileges before the
law, whether these grow out or tne
arbitrary use of power or out of the
blinding influences of partisan pre
judices, will certainly and continuous
ly paralyze Uie energy and industry oi
ine citizen, ana as cerium ly aiminisa
the productive power and wealth of
the State.- It can not be otherwise.
The great Jaws of social and political
economy will not relax themselves to
accomodate eur blindness or our stu
pidity.-
Partly as the logical result of the
premises above set forth, and partly as
tne result or a wore extended exper
ience, a large majority of the Repub
licans of Kentucky are now In favor
of complete amnesty to such of our
citizens as were active participants in
uie late rebellion, and we rejoice to
know that this feeling is being
strengthened every day, both iu Ken
tucky and in the more northern States.
The time must soon come in this na
tion, and the sooner the better when
every inhabitant or resident will feel
that be is, or that he may be an Amer
ican citizen In tUe broadest accepta
tion of that term, and that citizenship
necessarily implies, or ought to imply
equality of burdens, duties, rights and
privilege?, modified only by the pe
ouliar capacities and circumstances of
ef individual citizen.
As the logical sequence of the suc
cessful termination of the war grow
ing out of the rebellion inaugurated
for the protection and perpetuation of
slavery,' a changed condition ofour so
cial and political relations lias taken
place; The national authority has de
creed that men and women shall no
longer be reduced to the condition of
chattels, under the glittering euphon-
ism Of "OCR PECCMARISSTITITIOXS,"
which institutions were necessarily
sectional in their character aud de
velopment. ' We think that with the
eud of "sectional institutions" should
come the end of sectional animosities.
There Is now nothing but our preju
dices to prevent our becoming one
people in fact as well as in name. It
seems to us that homogeneity of in
BtltiKions in all the States should ne
cessarily foster and promote a more
complete community of interests iu
those same States.- At any rate, all
good citizens will do what they can to
promote those desirable ends.
Ail those forms and ideas of our na
tional life which crystalize themselves
into institutions should be national
and universal in their character and
extent, and not peculiar or sectional.
A liberal and comprehensive sys
tem of common schools; a free press;
pure and independent judiciary:
equality of privileges and rights be
fore the law; freedom of social and
commercial intercourse, with freedom
trade and exchange as between cit
izens of all the States; an open Bible
and an untrammeled pulpit these
are the institutions which constitute
the priceless birthright of every Amer
ican citizen. They lie at tne founda
tion of all that is honorable and glo
rious in our past history, and they
are the bonds which must bind us to
gether as one nation in the future. If
these institutions are necessary for
the elevauon and improvement of
one race or nativity, they are equally
necessary for all others. All may not
elevated and improved alike, but
should have an equal chance.
If anv portion or the people or Ken
tucky, for any reasons, have hitherto
been reduced below the general aver
of morality and intelligence be
cause they have been denied the pos
session and enlovment or tne institu
tions which form the strength and
elorv of the nation, our policy should
once be changed, because the rea
sons, or supposed reasons, for that
policy no louirer exist. It is not the
stronir arm of the laborer or of the ar
tisan wnicn constitutes lis ciuei vai
to himself, to society, or to the
State. He needs the educated mind
the intelligent self-coatrot ot a
manhood in order that the
streneth of his arm may be used to
greatest advantage for himself and
tne (slate oi wnicn ne is a cuizen.
As Kentuckians we can not afford
go backward or to stand still
Events will not stay themselves at
bidding. Intelligent progress is
law of modern society. As men
as citizens we must recognize the
obligations of this law or be content
abide the consequences.
As members of tlie Republican par
ty in Kentucky, let us select our best
citizens and let them meet together in
convention for consultation and ad
vice. In this brief address to you, webave
presented the prinelpi.es upon which
Republican party is founded rath
er than the specific measures which
commend themselves to ourjudgment,
practical action. We think this
dictate ofwisdom. We appeal to
intelligence and the tried patriot
ism of the members of the party
throughout the State, and we sincere
ly trust that your action will be such
that we shall have a large and intelli
gent representation of the party from
every part of the State. We respect
fully, but earnestly, beg of you to act,
to act promptly Bnd wisely.

F. Wade's Energy and Common
Sense.
Gen. Biyiiton, tbn correspondent of
: the Cincinnati Octette wbo accom
panied the San Domingo Commission,
writes a letter to that paper "About
Ben. Wade and his lat Work," in
which he sets him forth as the master
mind of the Exiedition. He savs if
Mr. Wade bad not measured the time,
and counted tbe means at command
of the Commission, the work could
not have got through With until late
in the summer, and the expense of it
would have been increased far bevond
the limits of the appropriation. Mr.
WaoVs associates seemed to be able
men buteacr devoted to his speciality,
President V. life wanted time t- de
velop all the facts connected with
the cause of education, while Dr.
Howe could only te bis duty in
that clause directin.25. nn inquir;
into the intellectual, moral and
physical condition of the people.
While Mr. Wade, of a more business
like and practical turn, with tbe di
rectness of a man who had an end to
reach and only a few days to reach it
iu, bent his energies to secure such a
general result as could be obtained
with the time aud means at his com
mand. While his associates were the
oretical, Mr. Wade was ' practical.
Gen. Boynton says: "Where thev
acted in tbe dark, so far as skilled
knowledge in the management of pub
lic affairs was concerned, he walked
on confidently having the experience
of a life time spent in the service of
the public to guide him. He was
plaiu, practical and brimming with
common sense, and so was recogniz
or oace as the main spring of theexpe
dition." But the point which will most in
terest Mr. Wade's old friends, as most
characteristic of the man, aud the ex
act correspondence with his antece
dents, is that which describes his in
difference to and neglect of all the
sham ceremonials of official life. Gen.
B. says:
In all the ceremonies attending
formal receptions Mr. Wade was the
horror of all sticklers for stiff diDlo-
rmatic forms. Where he was expected
to stand on the right side of some Do
minican or Hay tian dignitary, he was
pretty certain to be found ou the left,
or even behind, if he could hear bet
ter, or have a clearer idea of the pro
ceedings. If it wxs hot, he left his
beaver at bis room and wore a straw
hat, and carried his yellow sun um
brella into the very presence of the
royalty itself. It was a very difficult
matter to crowd him into a swallow
tailed coat, even when some with him
believed in the bottom of their hearts
that without proper gloves, cravats
and coats the possibility of the annex
ation would vanish in the air. when
the commission called in state upon
Baez. Wade went up to the "palace"
in white canvas shoes.
When the Tennessee beat to quar
ters, dressed all its officers in cocked
hats, dress coats.epaulettes.and all the
plumes and tinsel the regulations
prescribed, and received Baez with tbe
same salute to which the Queen of
Englaul orthePresidentof the United
States would be entitled, Mr. Wade
dropped a book he was reading, and
made haste to the gangway in his red
easy slippers and easy eoat, to wel
come Baez as he came over the side.
When calling formally on President
Saget of Hayti he went up in straw
hat, alpaca sack coat, and white can
vas shoes, and talked to all the bed
izened and lace covered dignitaries
of that great minstrel show, called a
government, as a plain man would
talk to those of whom he had some
definite things to ask at which these
minstrels atlected to be shocked, and
declared they had been insulted.
. . iuuguiuii) 011 alii:, uiiii xyuivc
That were nothing more in Mr. Wade's
republican eyes than any other re
spectable men who approached him,
and it is very unlikely that any of
them looked upon him as a suitable
successor to the throne. Such a man
would not do at all, you know.
According to Gen. Boynton, it was
largely owing to the good and sensi
ble advice of Mr. Wade that the Pres
ident in his final message took a con
ciliatory position in regard to annex
ation, and dropped the whole matter
from the list of questions which were
dividing and distracting the Republi
can part. Honest Ben. Wade will be
ever kindly remembered by the men
of his generation for his sterling in
tegrity, his unflinching and coura
geous patriotism, and his strong and
sturdy common sense.
Greased.
A curious state of thing exists in
the New York Legislature. The Dem
ocrats held the House by a vote of
sixty-five to sixty-three Kepublicaos,
exactly enough to carry any measure
on a straight party vote, and when
bills "with money in them" were to
be passed, a few Republican members
could jrenealiv be had. for a coniider-
arton, to scours against inIlmi."Tlie
Legislature was iu fact carried in the
breeches pocket of "Boss'' Tweed.
But one Jamus Irving, from the Six
teenth District of New York City, one
of Tweed's strikers, assaulted a ellow
Democratic member in such an out
rageous manner that a number of oth
er Democrats demanded his expulsion
or they would votelagainstTweed'n pet
bills. Irving was told by his owuer
to resign, and did so. This left the
Democracy with only sixty-four mem
ber?, or one short of the number nec
essary to pass a bill.
At this juncture the Republicans
saw their opportunity and took ad
vantage of it. They held a caucus and
drew pp a pledge, signed by every Re
publican member, resolving to oppose
a number of bills in which Tweed was
interested. The Democrats paid little
heed to this, purposing to elect a suc
cessor to Irving, and thus restoiethe
status quo. But a second caucus was
neia ana the Kepublicans pledged
themselves against authorizing a spec
ial election, defending their action by
stating that the Democratic majoriiy
in tlie Assembly was obtained by
fraud, and that the apparently face
tious coarse of the Republicans is
therefore justified by the circum
stances. It hi said that seventy-five thousand
dollars offered for a Republican vote
for the bill to authorize a special elec
tion, failed to secure a member. That
was almost too much to believe. Tbe
ofler might have been made, but that
not one Kew York legislator out of
sixty-three could be found willing to I
take it. was ineredibl. A UterA;L I
patch showed that our incredulity was
well founded. Mr. Winans. a ReDuh-
lican from Chatauqua couutv. publi
cly announced in the Legislature on
Saturday the fact that he had made
sale of himself, and that hereafter' he
should vote with the Democrats.
The wheels having been properly
greased, Boss Tweed's Legislative ma
chine is again in motion, grinding
out laws to suit him and his collea
gues of Tammany. It would be in
teresting to know whether the ingen
uous Mr. Winaiis was the oriirinator
of the Republican "pledge" that en
abled him to screw his own terms out
of tlie frightened Tweed.
A Son Kills His Father.
CIRCLEVILLE, O., April 17, '71.
Four miles east of this place a sav
age fight took place between Jacob A.
Leist and Peter, his son, aged seven
teen. It seems the elder went home
drunk about seven o'clock Saturday
evening, and came to blows with his
son about some hogs- .In the fray the
boy struck his father in the back with
an ax, which cut through the back
bone and spinal cord, aud entered one
of his lungs. The boy is in Jail await
ing an examination set for to-morrow.
At noon to-day the man is still alive,
but reported dying. We hear the boy
will plead self-defense, and claims
that tbe father had first thrown the
az at him, and was after ft for a sec
ond attack. The afiair was witnessed
by the wife and daughter.
