It is not true that Daniel R. GOodloe has
been appointed military Governor of
North Carolina, vice Stanley. The prOBa-
bilities are in his favor, he being recon-
mendsd by Stanley and the President, with
five members of the Cabinet being for him.
Stanton, however, objects 10 his appoint
ment or that of any body else, on the
sound ground that the Office is wholly un-
necessary, besides being a prolific source
Of quarrels with the Generals command
ing the department
The place has not yet been found where
negroes are numerous and have not en-
braeed the earliest opportunity to YOlun-
teer, under far more unfsvorable ciroum-
stances, with at least as much alscrity as
whites. Enough negroes have already
enlisted in the district to form a regiment
half as much as the white population
have achieved after two years of trial and
on yesterday the President was notified by
Commissioner Dale, on behalf Of the Off
GERS engaged in this work, thati he would
give assurance of the same protection to
blacks as we extend to white soldiers, this
district would easily furnish an entire
black brigade.
1t is reported that the Mcdowell Com
mission has sent evidence duplicating
number of prominent officers in the
Southwest in the crime Of selling negroes
for cotton or money, and that they will be
dismissed from the service.
Commissioner Lewis has decided that
the manufacture of seized, bleached, OF
wrapping cotton cord or twine, must pay
three per cent. tax, the liability not being
affected by payment of tax on it in raw
state.
4. NJ. Hall, the veteran editor Of Nash
vile, Tennessee, has been appointed Min
lister to Bolivar, on the recommendation Of
Governor johnson, vice Cartier Of Ohio re-
turned. HoratiO J. Perry is appointed
Consul l-General to Cuba. The Secretary
ship of the Legation in Spain will 60 to a
nephew Of Governor Curtin, when that
officer takes the mission to the same eOun-
try.
The following decision Of the Internal
Revenue Bureau settles large number Of
disputed cases in Ohio, as well as else
where through the West: When an estate
is granted in deed Of conveyance the fscsl
or execution officer executing the instrp.
ment is not obliged 10 fix stamp to the
instrument which, however, is still subject
to stamp duty, which must be 2aid by the
grantee, and tho sia---- -- - - '-''i Aeu Dy

the stamp it may yet be affixed by either
party to the instrument or any one hav-
