also makes patent articles, or medicines, etc,
ior winch he has private formula or receipt.

b. Arrangements will be made with the col.
lector OF this district to supply stamps TO par
ties desiring to purchase fifty dollars worth or
over at the rate OF discount established by the
Treasury Department.
y. Notes and bills of exchange drawn for o
certain sum, with interest, will be stamped &C.
cordiDg to the principal sum. Foreign curren-
cy will be estimated according to the real par
OF exchange; the pound sterling, for instance,
at the rate fixed for sovereigns, not at the NOM
inal rate OF 43z, nor at the market rates of
exchange, which Is now something above the
real par.
III. On and after October lst the following
instruments must be stamped: All agreements,
appraisements, checks, sight drafts, promissory

In reference to public houses and liquor deal
| era exclusively, 1t is defined that in tavern or
public house where liquor is sold, licenses must
be taken for each business, the license for the
tavern to be according TO the rental, and the
license for liquor ia all cases of retail to be
twenty dollars. BY retail is understood any
quantity under three gallons. To sell above
that quantity Is wholesale, and the license ia
one hundred dollars. Restaurants which furn-
ish bedding, and which keep liquors, are re-
quired to obtain three licenses-frst O tavern
license, secondly license for the liquor bar, oi
twenty dollars, aud thirdly o license for the
eating bar costing ten dollars, when the receipts
amount to or exceed one thousand dollars pei
year. Eating houses are permitted to keep con
fectionery without en- additional licenge.
ALI dealers in liquor by retail are required tc
pay license OF twenty dollars per year. The
penalty for refusal or failure to take ous license
Ia fne of three times the amount of duty OF
tax imposed by the law; one half of which goes
to the informer. These taxes are, of course
in addition to the State and city licenses nov
imposed, and the accumulation of expenses viii
materially affect the smaller dealers who
abound in every part Of the city. The prose
oution Of delinquents is made imperative on tn,
Collectors, who hold the names and residence
of all dealers, go that escape from the penalt,
is next to impossible.
