The following are some recent deci-
sions made by the Commissioner of In
iernaT Revenue :
A mortgage TO secure an annuity of
$500 per annum, during the life of the
annuitant, the present value of the an
nuity being specified in the condition of
the mortgage, at $4,000, is subject TO a
stamp duty of six dollars. .
Produce dealers are required to pay a
tax of 1-S per cent. on their sales, and
are considered brokers under section go.
THIS is additional to the license tax.
Certificates of burial lots being in the
nature of %conveyances, are subject to
stamp duty as such.
The l26th section of the act of June
Both, 1864, declares that ''for the pur-
pose of this act, the term real estate shall
include all lands, tenements, and heredlt-
am eats, corporal or i~ncorporaL."
II WILL hardly be commended that lease
Iok estates are included in the foregoing
enumeratioas, and what IS not expressly
included may Reasonably be supposed to
have been Intentionally omllted. / can
see no propriety in extending the appli-
cation of the statute 10 matters beyond
the ordinary import of lis language. and
I therefore decide that the sale cnd as
signment of a lease or agreement ought
not TO be regarded as a sale OF real
estate.

The Evansville Journal te lis of a new
kind of coercion which the colored people
of Kentucky, opposite Newberg, Indiana,
prscticed upon their masters, on election
day. They threatened to leave. unless
their masters or employers would vote
the straight-out Union ticket and as the
Conservative chaps would not comply
the negroes were as good as their word,
and left them to hoe their own corn and
potatoes, and sucker their own tobacco.
