GENERAL REMARKS.


Revenue Stamps may be used indiscriminately
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
atf1x and cancel the stamp thereon. 1.-The neglects
to do so, the party for whom it is made, may
stamp it before it is used and if used after the
SOth OF July 1854, and used without stamp, it
cannot afterwards be effectually stamped Amy
failure upon the part of the maker of 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 these, the
Wrts of sera fseias ars subiect 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 affidavits, is held to be q
titicate, and is subject to 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-
signat"d, are subject to stamp duty as Promisory
Notes.
The assignment of mortgage is subject to the
same duty as that imposed upon the original in
strument; that is to say for every sum of five
hundred dollars, any fractional part thereof, nf
the amount secured by the mortgage, at time of
its assignment there must be affixed q stamp or
stamps, denoting duty of five cents.
When two or more persons join in the execution
of an instrument the stamps to which this nstru-
ment is liable under the law may be affixed and
cancelled by one of the parties.
In conveyances 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 a 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 on 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 or de-
nomination of the stamp affixed should be made
upon the margin or in the acknowledgement OF
| the instrument which is not stamped.
