The Direct Tax Blll.
Sta, esviIle Landmark.

Much has been said IN the papers
within the asst year about the "dir, ct
stax bill which passed the lower house
of Congress recently by a vote Of IT'S
10 96, and yet few, perhaps, undere
stand the character of the measure.
This direct taxa tax on Landed
property--was levied under an act Of
Congress passed in 1861 for raising
money to carry on the civil war. The
law imposed on the several States
yearly payments in preporti ~ to
their population; and after one pay
ment the law was repealed. About
S15, 100000 was paid in, and this
sum, with l5 per cent, commission, it
is proposed by the bill to r. turn.
The total amount il about $l7 ,000,-
600. of which North Carolina's share
is $3S6,l9 Some Of the Statea made
no payment at all, and the proportion
assessed against each of these stands
charged against it ON the Treasury
books yet. The bill, IN proposing re.
payment to those States which paid,
provides forgiveness of the debt tn
