THE THREE HUNDRED DoLLAH
CLAUse.-The lancaster Pa.) E.c-
press publishes the following opinion
of Hon. Thaddeus Stevens in regard
to the effect of the payment of the three
hundred dollar communication by
drafted man:
LANCASTER, Aug. 27, 1863.
DEAR SIR: In answer to your inqui-
ry, my opinion is, that the payment of
the three hundred dollar communication
and the furnishing q substitute have
precisely the same effect. Either Of
them frees the drafted man from fur
ther draft for three yeals. He is in
effect in service, either by himself or
another. The payment of three hun
drei dollars makes the government
his agent to procure a substitute. The
Government has consented to act as
such agent. The law says he may,
"on Or before the day fixed for his ap-
pearance, furnish an acceptable sub
stitute, or pay such sum, not exceed
ing three hundred dollars, for the
procuration of such substitute; and
thereupon the person furnishing the
substitute, or paying the money, shall
be discharged from further liability
under that draft" No one doubts that
furnishing a substitute excuses for
three years. To give different effect
to the payment Of the communication
seems to me little less thar an absurd.
ity. 1t is very mischiveous miscon,
struction. which, fneed be, I have NO
doubt Congress will correct.

currence, we will make him afFoposition:
You know, when you was in the United
States Land Office you appropriated to
the individual Use of Lysander to Bahbltt,
ESQ, considerable amount of the pub
lie funds coming into yous hands; and
when the people, in their majesty, very
graciously relieved you of the arduous
duties of receiving the public money,
there were some ten thousand of our
Uncle Samuels dollars that you forgot
to hand over to your successor; and the
public records, to-day, show a balance Of
that amount against you. And, you
know, the Marshal's office, in this city
was filed, for several years previous to
the election of the present incubent, by
your style of man." and you know that
during The whole of his official term you
pqii no city tar, and as you controlled the
Mr. hal, your delinqueneies were not adj
ycrtised; and you know, further, that
when the new MaEsAar called upon you
to pay up, you rtfustd on the ground thar
1.-The law for advertising delinquent taxes
had not been complied with " in your
case. Now, we propose if you will pay
over to the United States, the tn N0o-
sand dollars in gold, which you stole from
theGoyernment during your official term.
we viii agree to pay all the State, county
city. or other tax. in which Mr.. Bell is
delinquent, and will say nothing about
popr tax. which you refused to lay be
cause it had not been "advertiscd." And
in the meantime allow Us to suggest, that
