THE EXCISE LAw.-The Collector of in
ternal Revenue desires us to call attention TO
the fact that by a decision of the Department,
the Excise law requires that "All contracts,
loans, or sales Of god or silver coin, if made
for a period exceeding three days, must be in
writing, or printed, and such contracts must
bear adhesive stamps equal in amount to one
half Of one per cent. on the amount Of said
contract; and in addition thereto, stamps equal
to the amount of interest at the rate of six per
cent. per annum upon the contract for the
longest time named therein. Contracts, loans,
or sales Of gold or silver coin, not made in &C.
cordancs with this decision. are void and in
addition to existing penalties for violation of
the Excise law, any party to said contract
may, within one year from the date thereof.
bring suit to recover back. for his own use
and benefit, the money paid on any such con-
tract"

will receive their pay within q reasonable
l-ngth of time after their accounts have been
sudi,ed and reported for payment BY the De-
partnent, instead Of the ruinous delay which
has heretofore attended these a,c 'unts. This
delay has not u~nfrequently been from twelve
to eighteen months, and result in great loss
to those holding such demands. The ex-
pcnsps OF the Legislative session. Of December.
1862, have only been paid in part. In fact,
the mem bers of the last :hrec sessions Of that
body were compelled to pay their incidental,
board and travelling express as best they
could, not receiving a dollar Of their pay till
many months after the adjournment. 1t is
but a few days ago that the Secretary re-
ceived a portion Of the funds to pay the ex-
D nses of the last session. 1t is certainly
a great hardship to submit to a loss Of
from forty to fifty cents on the dollar. with
prompt payment, but to be deprived of
their pay six or twelve months after it is due,
is extremely vexatious and annoying. We
presume it will only be necessary to call Mr..
Fessenden's attention to Theses facts to prevent
such delays in the future.

Rebel Inhumanity.

No event of the war will serve to create so in
tense feeling of revengeful animosty in the
hearts of the Northern people toward the traitors
and rebels who are trying to pull down our ma
tional fabric than the recent inhuman conduct of
the enemy in their operations against Fort Pill
low, Tenn. Their conduct throughout shows to
what degree of desperation the rebels are driv-
en- by the waning fortunes of their so-called con-
federacy. Under the pretext of wishing to negot-
ate with the garrison by flag of truce, they man
oevred their forces into the most advantageous
positions adjacent to the FORT proceeding total
ly at variance with the plainest usages of war
fare, and never practiced by other than those
who do not presume to be civilized, and we doubt
whether the barbarian could be so utterly devoid
OF the usual characteristics of civilization as to
commit such outrage against his fellow-bar-
barian. After securing positions in this dishon-
orable manner, which placed the fort completely
at their mercy, demands were made upon its
officers which none but men as lost to all sense
honor as themselves could entertain for a mo-

GREELEY OF THE SrUxp.-Greeley is making
stump speeches in Ncw England, and, we per-
ceive, from some OF his remarks, that be Is re-
turning to his old principles on the Union
question. He Is in favor now, just as he was
at the beginning Of the secession movement, OF
letting The South 20 out aud tho Union GO to
pieces. In bis Hartford speech the other day
he declared That II the Southern people decided
BY fair vote to 20 out OF the Union he was
In favor Of letting them do 80. That Is precisely
what he said in 1861. The truth is that
Greeley is afraid 70 see tho Union restored; for
he knows that neithor himself, nor Phillips, nor
Garrison, nor any Of the other rabid abolition
agtators who have been cxasperating the peo-
pie for the last thirty years on the snsi-slavery
question, could live In tho North, any more
than jeff Davis could live in the South, alter the
Union was re-established. Greeley desires tho
destruction OF the Union for the same reaso n
that Davis insists upon the independence OF the
South personal fear. They know that when
the Union sentiment is renewed in both Sec
tions there will be such . reaction ~ viii
bring upon them tho vengeance Of the people
But what double-fsccd. nypoorite Is Greeley,
