THE PROCLAMATION OF AMNESTY.


From all that we can ascertain Of the
general popular aentiment, the people OF
Tennessee are becoming daily more recon
oiled to its terms, and more convinced Of
the liberal and conservative spirit by
which itWas dictBted. Iti5 much 10 be re-
GREETED that even in those parts of the
State subject to Rebel interference, owing
o-the want Of mail facilities, or other
means Of speedy transmission, large por-
ton Of the population will, for long time,
only hear Of It through she ignorant inter-
Preialion Of some, and the intended mis-
representation Of others; and thus IN un-
fair prejudice against the measure be ore
sted.
To remedy this mischief, so far as we
can, We have concluded to keep the procla-
nation standing in our columns ct least
for some days, in order that as many eid-
sens as possible may haYs opportunity to
read the documentits Without being re-
dUced TO the necessity Of receiving the first
impressions Of its character through the
perveEtiDg comments ofignoFanee or bige-
try.
We feel confident that, by discussion and
reflection, the Presidents plan is rapidly
making converts In its favor, and that
moderate and prudent men, comprising
we would hope, q large majority of Tennes-
see voters, Will soon be brought to view Il
rs en- expsdient and well adapted to relieve
them from their present anomalous and
most distressful condition.

Tax YIeld from Liquor and TObaeeO.

The tax on ale, beer and porter yields
nearly $1,000, 900 at so cents per barrel
II the tax be raised to S1,50 per barrel
the receipts will be S., 100000. Petroleum
yields at present $3.50 900 per annuu, and
with the proposed tax on crude, with no
drawbacks, will yield nearly $4,000, 900.
Tobacco yiolds now something more
than S9,60O,000 per annum. The frauds
in this article have been enormous, and
the revenue ought to have been s., ,000,-
coo.
The proposed tax Of 20 cents per pound
on the crop Of leaf in 1868 will give about
$1,000, 900, If drawback be allowed on
the quEntity exported. If the plan Of al
lowing no drawback be carried out the
tax on that crop will probably produce
$4,000, 900 although the exports will be
largely reduced.
