The Logislature of Californian have passed the following resolutions against the incomo tax, and sent them to Congress: * Resoleed, That our Senators in Congross be in- atrocted, and our Representatives requested, to axe their iniuence to procure, if possible, the abolition Of the income tux. “ Resolved, Thut his Execlioncy the Governor of this State be requested to forward a copy of this lution to each of our Senators aud Representa- tives in Congress,” This expresses a feeling which Congress ought to heed and yield to, The Govern- ment is solemnly pledged that the income tax shall cease with the present year, That pledge cannot honorably be repudiated. Moreover, the tax is unconstitutional. The idea of renewing it ought not to be tolerated. ciate. ec Revolution at Hand in Spain. ‘The situation in Spain is unquestionably extremely critical. The provinces of Cata- lonia, Andalusia, Murcia, Granada, and in- deed the entire south of Spain, aro on the eve of a popular outbreak against the enforce- ment of the giintas, or conscription, These communities are overwhelmingly and in- tensely republican, ‘They never rendered cheerful adhesion to the Pri-Serrano Government, and have more than once fought behind barricades against the cruel De Ropas and the bloody Baupricu. Bar- celona is ina state of siege. Outbreaks are reported in Andalusia, and risings are ex pected in Granada, With revolution in the south, Carlists plotting in the north, and hate and treachery in the Government circles at Madrid, what prospect has Prim of saving the country from a general conflagration, and his own head from popular vengeance ? ‘The army is his only hope, and that is per- vaded by the spirit of revolt. It is certain that in the present criticul situation the Spaniards cannot send to Cuba another man, because every musket is needed at home to keep down the infuriated and revolutionary masses, A general uprising in Spain will doubt fess help the Cubans. We shall await addi- tional intelligence from the Peuinsula with freat interest, eens Yerba Buena Island—The Controversy About It. Yerba Buena is the name of an island within the corporate limits of San Francisco, and lying a mile out in the magn ificeut bay which takes its name from that city On the 12th of October, 1966, the President, through the Secretary of War, and on the recommenda. tion of the General commanding in Califor- nia, designated this island to be used for military purposes. The act of Congress un- der the authority of which this was done, provided that the President might designate certain lands, comprising among them this island, to be reserved to the Government of the United States for military, naval, or other public uses, “ within one year after the ren dition to the General Land Office, by the Burveyor-General, of an approved plan ofthe Limits of San Francisco, as recognized in this section, in connection with tlw lines of the public surveys.” In 1807 the military conimacder at San Francisco took posession of Yerba Buena. An interosting controversy has now arisen concerning the island, in which there are threo parties; the United States Government, the claimants of title under the original set- Uers, and the Western Pacific Railroad Com- pany. It is not certain that the Govern ment will relinquish its j.cos ssion to cither of the two other contestants, though both are making active effuris to ew off the prize. It is valuable. At the time when tl ccupation bean, the island was Lei by tiiee persone, who claim to be the pronto # ood purchasers of the original settlers. |: 5 asserted on their behalf that the powercf the resident to dosignate land to be set »part tor wilitary purposes, under the proviriour of the law to which we have referred, must be exercised within one year after the rendition of a plan of the San Francisco city limits to the General Land Office. No such plan has been filed there; and it is argued that until it is #0 filed, the right of the President to make the derignation is not perfected, In any event, say the claiinants, the island fe ansuited to military purposes, and, from ft position in the bay, utterly useless as @ sito for defensive fortifications, Engineer officers of the ariny have, we are informed, recommended that works be erected upou it 60 a8 to offer an obstacle to any Lostile naval force which might succeed in passing the five forts already built to defend the entrance to the bay and harbor of Sun Francisco, It fe said, how , taut a fort on Yerba Buena would be useless in such a contingency, as the enemy's fleet would necessarily place ftaclf between the inland and the city, The latter would thus be directly exposed to the full effect of our ow. fire teably destroyed. As the commer: ial d be almost inevi vartagos of the fend are unsurpassed in che vicinity of San Francisco, the claimants and the West ern Pacitle Railroad both are vigor ously striving to gein possossien of it The claimants may that even to the Government the pess the legal occupan priate the island to public use, oi!) f wiaht to take it from them + right tome other private party; namely, to th® Weatern Pacific Railroad, which wants Yetta Buena as the western terminus of the gfeat transcontinental line. It is urged ¢hmt the right of the United States to the military ocenpation of the land in question is merely a right of use, which becomes vested in the Government only upon its designation for such use ; and on abandonment by the United States the property revests in those holding the legal title. In reply to this, their opponents say that the claimants have in reality no title, and that the courts of California have so decided, The Government holds the island, they say, by virtue of the law of Congress under which the President designated it for public use, ‘That statute docs not make military or naval purposes the only ones for which land may be 80 set apart; the wordsare, “ military, naval, or other public uacs.” Thousands of acres of the most valuable portions of the public do- main have already been given to the Pacific Railroad Company by the United States ; and the Government is now urged not to re- fase the gift of an admirable terminus to the great railway on which it has heretofore been 80 lavish of favors, It is clalmed to be in the highest sense a public use for which the island of Yerba Buena is asked. This might be a very good argument on the part of the Railroad Company if it were backed by an offer of several millions for the Property. — Sambo a Power. The negroes are voting in all parts of the country under the Fifteenth Amendment. The Newark Datly Advertiser hes gone into a calculation showing that the colored voters in New Jersey number fully 5,000, and as- serting that they will be sufficient in all general elections to give the Republicans the State government, with both branches of the Legislature. It also says that of the five Congressional districts, the colored vote will insure the First, Second, and Fourth to the Republicans, and leave the Third assur- edly Democratic, while the Fifth will be a fair field for contest. Undoubtedly the negro vote will work serious changes in the politics of New Jer- sey ; and, if the Copperheads are allowed to rule its Democracy, it will throw the State into the hands of the Republicans, and keep it there till after the next Presidential elec- tion, The same istrue of Delaware, Mary- land, and Kentucky, and may be true a couple of years hence of Connecticut and New York. Will not there facts open the eyes of the Democracy? Do they intend to pursue a line of policy that will inevitably impel ninety-nine per cent. of the 900,000 colored voters of this country to go against their Presidential ticket in 1872? If they do, they had better disband now, for they will be annihilated then, Their motto should rather be : Copper. heads and Old Fogies to the rear ; Liberals and the Young Demoeracy to the front ! Is He a Coward? It is ramored about that the reason why a new Mayor is not to be elected in May along with the new Board of Aldermen, is that the Hon. Mr.O’HALL, the present incumbent of the office, has not courage to face the people and submit himself and his administration to the ordeal of an election. We can scarcely believe that this can be the true reason for postponing the choice of our new Mayor. Why should Mr. O’Hai. be any more afraid of the voters of this great city in May than in November? Will the lapse of six months make any difference in the ardor of their affection for his person ? When he ran asa candidate for Mayor last December, they voted for him with such una- nimity that no opposing candidate was heard of. Why then should he distrust them now? There is every reason why Mr. O’HALL should approach a new election without un- usual alarm. The Legislature has just put extraordinary powers into his hands, He is now authorized to appoint four Police Com missioners, with salaries of $8,000 a year each ; a Commissioner of Public Works, with a salary of $7,500; five Commissioners of Charities and Correction, with salaries of $5,000 each ; five Fire Commissioners, with salaries of $5,000 each ; four Commissioners of Health, with salaries of $5,000 each ; five Park Commissioners, with no salaries; a 8u- perintendent of Buildings, with a salary of $7,500 ; and five Commissioners of Docks, sal- ary not fixed; in all, thirty officials of great power and importance, who will receive their places from Mr. O’HALL alone, for his appoint. ments, though they all run for several years, are not subject to the confirmation of any body whatever. With all this new strength, and with the peculiar popularity displayed in the election of last winter, why should he hesitate and shrink now? Why not ask the Legislature to amend the new charter so that the Mayor, as well as the Aldermen, will be elected in May? The charter must at once be amended in many important particulars, owing to the haste of its preparation and passage; and it would be a gracoful act in Mr. O'HALL to ask to have it also amended 80 that his own claims to retlection could be passed upon by the people at the May elec- tion, Then if he were successful he could take a new start in bis career as Mayor at the game time that the other branches of the ro- formed city government go into operation, and the general political millennium begins. Can it be that Mr, O'HALL is deficient in natural bravery? At a Cuban fair held at Key West by American ladies, over three thousand fice hundred dollara were realized in three days for the bene- fit of the patriot cause, A noble example for the American ladies of other cities, Pee K te The bullion product of the Pacific coast for the year 1869 is estimated by the United States Commissioner of Mining Statistica at $63,500,000, Of this amount, $20,000,000 is credited to California, $14,000,000 to Nevada, 12,000,000 to Montana, and the remaining $17,500,000 to Oregon, Idaho, Colorado, Arizona, &c. This is somewhat less than the estimates the yield of previous years, the average having been £70,000,000. . eam Some of the papers are praising Commis. sioner DeLaxo for having issued an order to the Assessors of Internal Revenue not to permit the income lists to be copied for publication, The Coumissioner has issued no such order, and has no more right do so than a Judye has to forbid the publication of the evidence taken in # trial before him, He bas simply forbidden the Assos ors themselves to publish the lists, The Inter. mal Revenue abt requires ttre Histe to be submit ‘Wo the thmpection of any wnt AN persons who may ap- Ply for that parpore, and itis simply ridiculous to Valk about preventing copies of them being taken. Tt is trhe that it is very anndying to taxpayers to have the results of the year’s business made public ; but that is the feult of the inquisitorial, unconstitutional law imposing the tax on in- comes itself, and can only be avoided by repeal- ing the law, en Tho composition of the hair tonics, washes for the complexion, and other cosmetics sold in this city, bas just been investigated by Dr. Craxpier, chemist to the Board of Health, and he has made wpon it a report fall of interesting information. Tt appears that nearly all the so- called hair restoratives contain lead in solution, in quantities varying from one to sixteen grains to the fluid ounce, rendering them sure and dead- ly poisons, The lotions for the complexion are mostly free from injurious metals, Enamels for the akin are com pored sometimes of white lead, in which case they are poisonous, bat usually of oxide of zine, or some other white substance in the form of a powder, mingled with water, The dry powders for the skin are chalk, carbonate of magnesia, and white clay. Itis hardly necessary to add that persons who use theso preparations do so at great risk to their health. pidrhansshonse+--~ hasten Rocreront is in prison; Vicron Norn is dead ; his murderer, Boxaranre, is at large, and tranquillity apparently reigns in Paris, But the affairs of the hybrid Empire are really more un- settled than ever, and Oxurvien, the Prime Min- ister, can hardly make a step forward without taking two steps backward. Count Dano is at loggerbeads with his colleague respecting the | Geumenical business, and Lovrs Naroueox him- self is so much alarmed about the stabitity of his throne that he is all the time appealing to public commiseration by representing himself as threat- ened by assassins, Everybody knows, however, that there bas been no other assassination than that perpetrated by the Emperor upon the Republic, and by his cousin upon @ Republican journalist. L. N., in his pitcous appeals, resembles the thief who cries “Stop thief” in order to de- ceive the police. sien Mr. Lrorotp Levis, who keeps a news- paper stand in Brooklyn, on the corner of De- graw end Columbia streets, reports to us that the difference between his daily sales now and six months ago is as follows: October, 166 | Apr, te70, tive figures before its limited circle of readers? eset The Hahnemann (homeopathic) Hospital is before the Legislature with an application for agrant of money, Certainly, no charity is more worthy of support, and if any hospitals at all are to receive State aid, this should by all means have it. The increasing favor with which the homao- pathic system of medicine is regarded, not only Ainong our wealthy citizens, but by those who need gratuitous treatment, is shown by the vast numbers who apply at the various homeopathic dispensaries in the city, and the propriety of pro- viding bospital accommodations for the sdme class of patients is evident, There is no more justice in requiring ® poor person who prefers howaopathic treatment to put himself under allopathic hands, than in compelling allopathists to submit to homeopathic prescriptions, Let both schools of medicine have their own hospitals, as well as dispensaries, and be judged by their success, —— A Card trom Mr. Greeley. To the Eatitor of The sun. Sm: You ask, in your issue of this date, whether I deny that I said to the Hon. John Mor- rissoy that I heard that the Hon, James W. Husted had recetved some money—""T think about seven thousand dollars"—for supporting the Tweed char- ter, Ianawer that Ido most positively deny that I ever said this, or anything like it, or anything whatever in regard to Bir, Husted’s receiving money for hid vote for the Tweed charter. If this ts not sufficiont, I will make it ¢0 to your satisfaction, if you will tell me what would satisfy you. And, if any one shall doubt my recoliection, I refer him to the Hon. Jolin Morrissey, with whom I never at any time spoke of this matter, but who cannot fail to add bis testimony to mine, ff inquired of. Let me further inform your readers that the story of your Albany correspondent that “some forty Re- publicaus” spoke to me at Albany about my being a candidate for Governor, and represented that, by opposive the Tweed charter, 1 would destroy all chance of my nomination, &c., {4 a falsehood, No forty, thirty, twenty, ten, or even one, made any such representation to me, © where. Your correspondent’s assertion that I told these men in buckram, or any of them, or any one else, that I thought the friends of the Tweed charter would be satisfied with my speech before the Com- mittee on Cities, is another groundless fubrication. Your correspondent’s statement that I, in answer to Senator Chapman advised the Republican Senators: to" vote for the charter as it f,"" If they should fail to amend it, is the exact opposite of truth, So is bis assertion that I sald to Judge Hilton (or any one else) that John Russell Young sold me," or anything to that effect, fo is bis assertion that 1 agreed to meet Mesers, Tweed and Sweeny at room 124," or anywhere elee. I was asked by Rufus F, Andrews to meet those gentlemen with reeard, not to the charter, dnt to the Election bill, and positively declined to do 80. —I trust you will find these contradictions expli- cit, My anxiety bas been to make them courteous, Yours, HORACE GREELEY. New Yorx, April 7, 1870. Mr. Greoley Bay, Yo the Editor of The Sun, Sin: I was present by invitation at the inter. view between the Bon. Horace Greeley and the Hou. John Morrissey on last Friday evening, Reading the inaccurate statements concerning this interview published in Sunday's journals, I thonght that jus- co to both parties required that @ true statement of what was said during that interview should be printed, I visited the Hon, Mr, Greeley on Sunday afternoon, and asked bis permission to publish the substance of the inverview. He seomed ploased, Dut suggested that I shonld begin my report by writing what was t troe, that I was acect- dentally present, I suggested that be should read the manuscript before the report was printed. He replied that he did not care about reading It. During the interview the Hon, Mr, Morrissey com- pliined to Mr. Greeley that the Republican Assem- blymen had been bribed to vote against the Hackle- perry charter, Mr. Gresley eaid be thought some of them had, and asked Mr, Morrissey if he knew how much Husted got. Mr, Morrissey replied that he fupposed Husted got the same as the rest of them $10,000, Mr, Greeley answered that ne had heard tuat Mr, Husted had received some monoy—he thought about $7,000—but he didn't know what to believe. Whatever Mr. Greeley's mesning may have been, this is precitely what he sald, I remember this mort distinctly, Kuowing what particular toterest Mr, Greeley takes in the politics of Westehester. my attention was espectally excited the moment he mentioned Mr. Husted’s name, AMOS J, CUMMINGS, ee Note from Mr, Blunt an a Blockhe To the Editors of the Boentug Post : Is there a precedent for an ambassador appear- ing for two different powers before a third, to ad Just a difference?
