The population of the town fell off about 20,000 during the time of its connection with France; the taxes, while the two countries were incorporated, were enormous; the income-tax, which was independent of the droits reunis, or assessed taxes, having been stated to us at one-fifth of every man's income.
Let us now point out the income-tax as a measure reflecting infinite credit upon those who had the sagacity and resolution to propose it.
This was some satisfaction to me, I assure you; and, combined with the sum of one hundred and ten pounds sterling less income-tax on one- fourth part of the said amount, or thereabouts: I like to be correct was all the benefit I ever received from my connection with "Government."
"I don't see that at all." "I haven't a shilling in the world." "Girls don't care much for that." "And then a clerk in the Income-tax Office! It's such a poor thing." "The other fellow was only a clerk in another office."

I therefore make the following statement of the cost and income of my potato-crop, a part of it estimated in connection with other garden labor. I have tried to make it so as to satisfy the income-tax collector:
The next day, he and Bill Myers got a bottle of carbonated water and mixed themselves a couple of drinks of it. It was delicious sweet, dry, tart, sour, all of these in alternating waves of pleasure. "We do have something, Bill," he said. "We have something that's going to give our income-tax experts headaches." "You have," Myers corrected. "Where do you start fitting me into it?"
As far, therefore, as concerns the direct financial effects of the new tariff and its counterbalancing income-tax, the results of Sir Robert Peel's policy are such as may stagger and confound the boldest of his opponents.
At seven o'clock on the following morning Eames started on his return journey, and was at his desk at twelve o'clock, as per agreement with his taskmaster at the Income-tax Office. The Combat
