GENERAL REMARKS.

Revenue Stamps may be used unfortunately
upon any of the matters or things enumerated in
schedule b, except proprietary and playing card
stamps, for which special use has been provided.
Postage stamps cannot be used in payment of
the duty chargeable on instruments.
1t is the duty of the maker of an instrument to
affix and cancel the stamp thereon. Ihe neglects
to do so, the party for whom it is made, may
stamp it before it is used; and if used after the
cannot afterwards be effectually stamped. Any
failure upon the part of the makerof an instru-
ment to appropriately stamp it, renders him liza
Bile to penalty of two hundred dollars.
Suits are commenced in many States by other
process than writ, viz: summons, warrants pub
licaton petition, &c, in which case these as the
original process, severally require stamps.
Writs of scira facias are subject to stamp duty
as original processes.
The jurat of an affidavit, taken before Justice
of the Peace, Notary Public, other Officer duly
authorized to take affdavits, is held to be GER
titicate and is subject to a stamp duty of five
cents, except when taken in suits of legal proceed
ings.
Certificates of loan in which there shall appear
any printed or written evidence of an amount Of
money to be paid on demand or at any time de-
Notes.
The assignment of mortgage is subject to the
same duty us that imposed upon the original in
strument; that is to say for every sum of five
hundred dollars any fractional part thereof, of
the amount secured by the mortgage, at time Of
its assignment there must be affixed stamp or
stamps, denoting duty of five cents.
When two or more persons join in the execution
of an Instrument, the stamps ~ which this instru
ment is liable under the law, may be affixed and
cancelled by one of the parties.
In convcyances of real estate the law provides
that the stamp affixed must answer to the value
of the estate OH interest conveyed.
No stamp is required on any warrant of attor-
ney accompanying bond or note, when such
bond or note has affixed thereto the stamp OIL
stamps denoting the duty required, and whenever
any bond or note is secured by mortgage, but one
stamp duty is required such papers, such
stamp duty being the highest rates required for
such instruments, or either of them. In such a
case note or memorandum of the value de-
nomination of the stamp affixed should be made
upon the margin or in the acknowledgement of
the instrument which is not stamped.

fr Is said that Mr.. r. NJ. Clark, who
10 expecting to stay four years more
in the Auditors office by obtaining
Union votes, keeps pictures ofthe late
Rebel leaders hanging in his parlor,
and an obscene picture, representing
the martyred Lincoln dancing with
negroes, or something 'of that kind,
hanging in the Auditors Office.
Clark claims that he will get many
Republican" votes. II any Union
man in the County has thought Of vo-
ting for him, we ask him to consider
these things. The Auditors office is a
public otflce, and no official has any right
to put pictures up there calculated to
insult every opponent whom business
calls in.
Every insult offered to the memory
OF the martyred Lincoln is an insult
to the soldiers who fought under him,
and to every man who sustained him
during the recent bloody Rebellion.

hearing a few words from Mr.. Tucker
Accordingly, all who could get in
rushed into the Court Room, and Mr..
Tucker addressed them in a short
speech.
At night the Court Room was pack
ed full. In accordance with a request,
Col. Stencer gave some of his person
al experiences in the South. He Is a
native of Georgia, but has spent his
manhood thus far in Texas. When
Texas was put under martial law Col.
Stencer escaped to New Orleans, with
many other Texans, and two regiments
of Texas Cavalry were organized in
the United States service from these
refugees, and served until the close Of
the war. His property was entirely
destroyed, and his helpless wife and
children subjected to terrible want and
insult, simply because the husband and
father would not turn traitor. Col.
Stencer again left Texas last August,
and dare not go back there. Union
men in that State are cruelty murdered
every day, and no one is punished for
it. Society is to-day, if possible, in a
worse state than during the war, and
the malignant Rebels, whom our brave
''Boys in Blue" thought they had con-
quered, are daily cruelty numbering
those who wore the loyal uniform or
those who hailed the coming Of the
"Old Flag" His wife had stood in
her sisters door and saw four men
hanging to trees at one time, for nc
other crime than their loyalty to theil
country. Col. Stencer again mace g
thrilling appeal to the people to stant
by their loyal Congressman, and th'
more radical they were, said he, th'
better. His speech was well received
and was frequently applauded.
Mr., Tucker, of Virginia, was thel
introduced, and gave our people som
account of the doings of Mr.. Johnson
''reconstructed'' Rebels in the "Ol'
Dominion" He bore testimony simila
to that given by Col. Stencer in rela
ton to Texas. Trials by the civi
courts were mockeries, as betwee
Union men and Rebels. Rebels mur
dered Union men without provocation
but went unpunis he'd; they refused t.
pay debts due Union men, and th
courts declined to compel payment. -
Mr.. Tucker declared that the only hop
of the Unionists in the South is in a
overwhelming Union victory at tn
polls all over the North.
| The meeting dispersed at late houl
all feeling glad that they had hear
these brave and loyal Southerners, an
that they had given them such friendl
greeting.
