The Internal Revenue receipts in the last 9G
days, Sundays included, amounted to the sum
Of one hundred millions, nine hundred and
thirty-five thousand. three hundred and twenty
one dollars, and ninety-four cents, being

The Commissioner of Internal Revenue to-.
day decided that travelling agents Of manufac-
turerS and dealers, regarded as commercial

will be required to procure license from the
1st Of August, instead of the 1st of May there
by reducing the cost Of the license, for the cur
rent revenue year, from $40 to Sl5. The rea-
son of this decision is because the construction
of the law was made subsequent to the date of
the annual license.

The Heraid's Washington special, of the 4th,
says several Louisiana gentlemen were admit
ted early, to-day, TO an interview with the
President, and urged their views touching re-
construction in that State. Gov. Wells was
firmly sustained by them and Gen. Candy
blamed for the civil disorder and dissatisfaction
that reigns throughout the commonwealth.
Gen. Sheridan was spoken Of in high terms,

The publication, in New York, of the state
ment that the proposed convention of compound
interest notes into 520's, by Secretary McCu-
loch, gives the latter the power to issue addi-
tcnal notes, and replace those thus absorbed.
1t must have been made under misapprehen-
sion of the law, and does the Treasury Depart
ment great injustice. Nosuch additional issues
will be made and none such were ever contem-
plated by Mr.. McCulloch. On the contrary
as has already been Stated in the Herald, it is
the move of a series for contraction, and when
rightly understood will receive the universal
approbationsof all who desire a lessening of the
public debt, contraction Of the national cur
rency and return to the spire basis. .-
