all its types set by female competitors.
Speaking Of the subject, the F. and F. says !;
The ladies employed in this office are some
Of the many in the South upon whom the
disasters Of the war fell with heavy hand.
They are all well educatedand accomplished,
and belong to rs good families as any IN this

then they 60 home to dinner, are ready. for
an afternoon walk or call, and we doubt not
that many Young gentleman, who, desi-
ring an evening among bright eyes, pretty,
faces, good music, etc, Is often astonished
(if not made 10 feel small by hi sown lack Of
posting) at the thorough familiarity which
these ladies evince in all matters pertaining
10 current literature. He docs not trouble
himself 70 ascertain where and how they
read so much ; il is enough for him that they
can lead him in conversation upon almost
any topic. .,-..
ifthese ladies deign 70 touch, With their

Cousin SAILIE-A few days ago, we saw
a box At the landing, which was marked
"WM. Porrs. Medical Purveyor, c. 5. A.,
.isdontgomery, Ala, G. s. A." We had not
seen il long, before an individual more than
two sheets in the wind, came hiccupping
aud Staggering among the barrels, bags and
boxes on the levee. He was not long IN gy-
rating up to the box we have mentioned.
He saw the address and gave two or three
jarring hiccups in speedy succession; oei3Te
he could get out a Punch-like laugh. he
finally Strengthened himself up with the
gravity Of punchinello and exclaimed,
show are you, Cousin SAIIIEr' wei old
C.S. A." he continued, 81 thought yon

must now read, Confidence Strengthens
Affections You've had hard road old gal,
and the Radicals intend 20 send you across
Jordan, but keep stifFuppcr-lip, and you u
come out all right aaer all.' He took his
leave by giving some half dozen hiocups,
and saying, 'old c. s. A., I have fought

THE LEADING OBJECTS OF THE COM

They propose to accomplish the first of these
objects by purchasing lands, where suitable water
power CT other advantages may be had for manu-
featuring purposes; and also by purchasing lands,
IN large tracts, near cities rivers and railroads.
These lands will be divided into suitable lots or
tracts, ard alternate tracts sold to the immigrant

years.
The Company will also act as agent for large

nized

for labor by furnishing Mechanics, Gardeners, and
all description of labOrers. They will secure this
labSr by being able to guarantee employment 1T
Temunerative prices in the most healthy and
genial climate of the world, and they expect to
satisfy the employer by guaranteeing the deliver
ing Of the labOrers TO him at any shipping point
railroad station. Our system for furnishing all
kinds of labor to all parts of the State expect
to make perfect For the detail we refer to our

towns in places adapted to that purpose, and from
the aiding of manufactures and the general deVel-
Opment of the agricultural and mineral resources
of the State and also from the direct fees derived
from the supplying of operatives.

Internal ReYenue Decision.
Important to Carriage Makers, Land
lords and Tenants, and Merchants.

The attention Of business men is directed
to the following;
TREASURY DEPARTMENT, OFFICE Con-
MISSIONER INTERNAL REVENUE, WASHING
ToS, September is, IS66-GzNTLEAIEE
Your letter Of the 18th inst is before me, in
which you inquire if carriage-makers are
allowed, under the present Internal Reve-
nue. hW. 10 deduct from their returns Of sale
the value Of such articles entering into the
manufacture Of carriages as may have al
ready paid the manufacturers tax. In ran
swer, have 10 say, that under the new law
a long list Of articles previously taxed is
exempted. Some Of these articles are ma
terials and component parts, exempted
where the complex article into which they
enter is taxed and in some cases the com
pick OF Ultimate articles is exempt where
the materials and component parts nave
been taxed previously.
In this respect, however, the law adopts
no general principle, and double taxation,
Is Just as clearly recognized in the law as a
single taxation, and where double taxation
is specially provided against, the cases are
made the exception and not the rule. And
following the list Of exempted articles Is
proyiso declaring that the exceptions shall
in all cases be confined exclusively TO the
articles enumerated, and in the state and
condition specified in the enumeration, and
not 10 articles in any other form, nor TO
manufactures from said articles.
The new law exempts spokes, hubs, bows,
and feloes, poles, shafts, arms and wheels
not ironed or finished; springs and wire
made Of steel; axles made Of iron or steel,
rivets, nuts, washers and bolts used in the
manufacture Of vehicles or carriages, and
also paints But the iron and steel from
which many Of these articles are made are
subject 10 an impost or excise duty, also the
leather, cloth and trimmings. And the fin
ished carriage is liable 10 a duty Of five per
cent. I'D vdiorem, without any deduction
whatever Of articles or materials, taxed or
untaxed, which enter into the construction
Of the carriage.
If any assessor has allowed deductions Of
any kind from the value Of the finished car
riage before assessing the tax, he has done it
on his own responsibility and without au-
thority Of law, and measures will be taken
Immediately to correct the erroneous assess
ment. Z. A, ROLLINS, Com'r.
OFFICE INTERNAL gESUE, Washing
ington, Sept IL, 1SS6-SIR: In reply to
your letter Of the 5tE inst, that when leases
are executed in duplicate, triplicate. etc, ali
require stamps as originals, but mere copies
are exempt. II notes are given for the con-
sideration Of a lease, they must be stamped
as well as the lease.
