On the It'll, there was a big discus
sion over DibrelIs to amend the Reve-
nue. Law so that the Southern farmers
may sell their leaf tobacco without pay
ing $500 for a license. DibreIl said
that last year only 5 farmers app
piled for such licenses, SO that the Gov
eminent received only 1888 revenue
from this source, while it cost $40. 600
to enforce the law. Mr. Speer, of
Georgia, said -
The farmer a sell his cabbages
raised on one patch or his potatoes on
another; but he cannot sell his leaf to-
bacco from the next patch. These
laws are oppressive, unequal. unright-
eous. So iniauitous is this system that
it was stated by the distinguished gen
tleman from Kentucky (Mr. Carlisle)
that be knew of a farmer who was
prose cuted for manufacturing tobacco.

leaves from his own field and put them
