provided thst it should be levied for the
years 1871 q 1872. How, then, this dis
erepancy, and where was the change
The old law, under which the tax fol
1869 was levied, required:
"That the taxes on incomes herein i'm.
posed shall be levied on the LIST day ol
March, and be due and payable OF OF be
fore the 30th day of April, in each year,
until and including the year 1870, and nc
longer.n
The question is, whether the income
tax for 1870 could have been levied before
the LIST day Of March, and whether the
fact of its not having been levied within
the time limited does not of itself STOP
any further proceedings under the act
And there is still 8 further question
which is, II people pay the five per cent.
under the old set, whether they are not
liable still for the two and a half under
the new act for the year 1870?
Commissioner Delano. we understand
insists on the five per cent. under the old
act, and some c1Tp)rations are deducting
it from the face OF the couT ons of theil
bonds IS they pay u en-, while others are
leaving the settlement OF the tax to the
b~Ondholders themselves, Small bond
holders are accepting their coupons, less
this Eve per cent. shave, simply because
thtir only remedy is too expensive.
Large holders are paying under protest.
Some corporations, we understand, take
the ground that there could have been
no income tex deducted from coupons be
fore the LIST of July because there was no
act authorizing the tax until after that
period. They forget that the I'VE per
cent. is colIectable, il at all, under the old
law. Ifthat is stih in force the five per
cent. will be due for the year 1870, and
possibly the two and a half per cent. be-
sides. The whole thing is just such a
middle as might be expected from such
a piece of knsvery and chicanery, for we
can call it nothing else. The passage of
the act must forever be a disgrace to SEN
atOr Sherman and the Senators who as
sisted in its manipulation.

The extreme heat and want of rain has
the effect of keeping many peopleat home

extremely dusty, and the railroads are

SPECIAL NOTICES.
The Blood in summer....Tbe blood d,

The Blood Ia Summer.--The blood dete-
ton deprives 1t of a portion of its nourIshing
and reproductive properties. Consequently,
in summer, the flesh loses, in some degree,
its frmness, the muscles lack their usual
elasticity and yigor. and the weight of the
body diminishes. These are clear Indications
that the ordinary supply of the Iife-sustaln-
ing principle Afforded by the food we eat, is
not sufficient to meet the requirements of the
system under a high temperature. There Is
another reason for this, besides the direct in
1uence of the heat, viz: the loss of appetite
and The weakening of the dig sstive powers
which il occasions. Under these clrcum-
stances a wholesome invigorant is evidently
needed, and the best and safest is Hostetter's
SBOmac Bltters. This admirable vegetable
tonic and alternative acts favorably upon the
system in several ways. 1t increases the ap-
petite and facilitates digestion, thereby in
Ginning the stomach 10 receive and enabling
IL to assimilate a due amount OF nourish-
meut. IL also tones the relaxed secretive or
gans and the bowels. Under its operation
the process of emaciation .-oceasioned by the
drain through the pores, is arrested, the
whole frame refreshed and invigorated, aud
the spirits eXhilarated. The dyspeptic, the
bilious, the nervous, the deb1litated scarcely
need TO be told that IL Is precisely the stimu-
season. thousands of them know the fact
by experience. Nothing in the pharmacO-
psela, or out of IL, VIII supply its place-least
OF ali the TRASHY LOCAL NosrRUMs which
some INSCRIPTIONS dealers would be glad, for
the benefit OF their own pockets, 10 peddle
