The law declares that after the
10Th of February, 1869, fine cut chew
ing tobacco, all smoking tobacco and
snuff, and after the first day of April,
1869, all cigars, and after the first
day of July, 1869, all other descrip-
tons of tobacco shall be stamped be-
fore sold or offered for sale. Tobac.
co, snuff and cigars kept constantly
in sight upon the counters, or shelves,
or in the show cases of dealers, and
especially if mixed Unfortunately,
the stamped and the unstamped, must
be regarded as for sale.
Dealers who have on hand stock
of old and unstamped tobacco, if they
do not wish to stamp the same until
they have made a sale of it, must re-
tire it from their counters and show
case, and store windows, and separ.
ate their stamped goods from such
unstamped goods, otherwise the law
requires that they should affix the
stamps. -
Dealers are required to make mon
thly inventories SO long as they have
any unstamped goods remaining on
hand manufactured in the United
States or imported prior to tho act
Therefore, when any dealer ceases
to make his monthly inventory, an
enquiry should DO instituted to see if
the stamps purchased Of the Collcc-
tor equalied in number, dcnomina-
tons and value those required for
the kind, quantity, and number of
the tobacco, snuff and cigars on hand
as per his inventory at the time when
the Same became liable to be stamp
ed, and should it be found that no
stamps have been purchased, or not
stamps sufficient to stamp the goods
on hand at the several periods when
they became liable to be stamped,
then the dealer may properly be call
ed upon to account for this discrepan-
CIV. *
Dealers who knowingly and per.
sistently sell tobacco, snuff, or cigars
unstamped in violation Of the provis-
ions of sections 70 and "a, should be-
reported to the District Attorney for
prosecutions under said sections.

cessary acccutrements for that length
of time, and took southwest di-
rection. The first place Of impor-
lance we passed through was Bloom
field, which is fre town, and has
improved in the last few years very
much with some fine residences, which
in an honor t. any county, especially
Gen. Weavor's residence, which is
fine mansion.
From Bloomfield wo passed near
Moulton, on the railroad from st.
Louis to Bloomfield. At this point
rain came down in torrents; the
streams became too full to ford, and
we had to take roads that were
bridged, when we came to Mis-
souri,, at the northeast corner of
Putnam county, passing thro' Union
vile, the county scat, which is about
worn out.
From there we passed through
Newton, at the southwest corner Of
Putnam county, and then took tho
dividing ridge between Charlton and
Grand rivers, to Chillicothe, the Co.
seat of Livingston county, a good
town on tho Hannibal d st, Joe RR.
There We saw Messrs. G. s. 4 81.
Powers, former residents Of Wapcllo
county. They say business is good,
although it is divided between that
place and Ottumwa that they think
the day is not far distant when a rail-
road will be built connecting both
places.
We came to Grand River near
there, which was bank full, and had
to lay over eighteen hours on account
of teams ahead of us, and the ferry
man charged only So per team for
crossing. From there we made our
way through Ray county, Mo-, to
Lexington, then crossed the Missouri
river, and there saw the bitches
which Col. Mulligan was in when he
surrendered to the robels.
From there We passed through La
fayette, johnson, Cass and Bates
counties, to Vernon, and now we are
at Nevada, the county scat OF said
county, recruiting our teams, i. 6. let
ting them Craze on the prairie, tor
there are no oats, and corn is scarce,
and worth $l.50 per bushel. Wheat
and oats look well. From the Grand
to the Usage rivers wheat looks very
well.
You should say to the people of
Wapello, that if they have any in
clination to come South, they had
better do as we have done: examine
before moving, for Mr.. F. says he has
seen no place that he would exchange
for.
In the morning we leave for
the Cherokee Nation. Will write
again. TIP.
