Special Revenue Tax.

The following important circular, under
date of March the 4th, has been issued from
the treasury department internal revenue bu-
reau. 1t has particular reference to the
special tax license or stamp, and has
bearing upon all business men having rela-
tions with the internal revenue Office. The
circular is as follows:
In view of the decision of the supreme court
rendered Jan. 81, 1879, in the case of the
United States VS.. Adam Gable, the ruling of
this Office requiring special tax to be paid by
the successor in business of firm which dis
solves before the expiration of the term for
which such firm has paid the special tax has
hereby modified to this extent
That where the person or persons succeeding
to and carrying on the business for which the
dissolved firm has paid special tax belonged to
such firm, further special tax should not be
exacted of such successor for carrying on the
same business at the same place. for the re-
mainder of the period for which the stamp was
issued to the old firm.
But where person. a member of a firm car
rles on a business after the firms dissolution.
and associates with him person who was not
member of the old firm, the new firm SO con-
stituted should be required to pay special tax
and take out a new special tax STAMP, even
though the name of such new firm be the same
as that of the old.

miss is as good as mile, to be sure.
But when it comes in the shape of leaden
bullet, and the miss borders on to the small
lneal dimensions of an inch or SO, it becomes
trying to the nerves, at least. This sensation
befel lot of gentlemen at the Merchants
hotel, who were absorbing the spring sun
shine yesterday on Jackson street. The
close call came from Smiths st. Louis
saloon just opposite. He was handling an
''unloaded'' revolver and exhibiting it's SUI
periority to party whom he thought would
become customer. Smith was cautioned
against his carelessness, but with "humph,
it's unloaded," proceeded to verify the old
adage that fire-arm is dan
gerous without lock, stock, cock
or barrel. He raised the pistol, aimed it to-
wards the window, and pulled the trigger.
The sharp report Of a discharge, quickly fol-
lowed by the crash of glass, gave evidence
of the power and danger of the unloaded
and rusty weapon. The shot crashed through
the front window of the saloon, shattering it
into atoms, and imbedded itself in the wall of
the Merchants hotel just opposite. A little
knot discussing the weather, on the opposite
sidewalk, heard the whizz of the bullet and
ducked with commendable and spontaneous
unanimity. Judge Goodrich did the biggest
bit of doge, and had the most need. On
examination, the bullet was found to have
passed within about an inch of where his
head was before he lodged.

many southern men insist on southern

ing political debates in the close of the last
session has convinced them that, no matter
how circumspectly the representatives of
their section may demean themselves, the
Republicans do not intend to forget the is-
sue of the war for quarter of a century at
least, and that the best way to meet unjust
aspirations upon the South is to put
southern man in the Speakers chair, to con-
vince the country that the South can rule

Democrats to organize the House. The sick

ing house coffee, and was thus nerved or un-
nerved to the extent of getting up provision
against these provision dispensers. The bill
lay on the Governors table yesterday for his
signature. 1t has the abstract idea of common
Justice and big slice of common equity in it.
The boarder is protected by its measure; he is
not always to be victim to bad butter, worse
pastry and the worst coffee. If good victuals
are not provided the boarder can rebel without
fear of the landlady's sardonic satirical or an
cry look or words. And if the protest against
the provender isn't entertained by better enter
talnment IN the future, why the boarder needn't
pay. If the Governor were only bachelor,
there'd be no fears entertained about the little
matter of signature.

Mrs. KATE SPRAGUE,
With Compliments of Roscoe.

''Mrs. Conkling did not scream. Oh, no.
She has too much good solid sense for that,
but she silently wiped her eyes, rolled pa
per around the beautiful Louquet, and sent
her servant with it to Mrs. Sprague's resi-
dence.
The green house man had made mistake
and sent it to the wrong place. Since then,
tits said, Roscoe carries his own bouquets to
Mrs. Sprague, while Mrs. Conkling remains
at home in Utica. It is understood that she
now ''sits down" on Rosce in private,
though she does smile on him at public re-
ceptions.
It is now settled, after Roscoes 100000
bouquet to Mrs. Sprague, that the best way
for a Senator to win the affections of rich
widow is to treat her to 100000 present in
the Senate. Everybody can have back taxes
by letting them accumulate, and advise
everybody, young and. old, to have them,
and then, if you are pretty woman, send
for Sir Roscoe, firt with him, and he'll take
your case to the Senate.
