 As a direct outcome of the civil war there was placed in the stamp series Of 1882 a stamp of e new denomina tion, 15c, and it bore the picture of Lincoln. Many stamps of later issues have borne portraits of men who would probably not have been thus pictured but. for their prominence as soldiers or statesmen during the war period.
 The, stamps of the Confectionery itself are the most acute reminders of the s civtI war. Besides the specimens got ten out by the general government the postmasters of many towns printed To- cal or provisional stamps which were Recognized for use throughout the re- stNcted mail service of the Confed- eracy.

 The next war stamps in which thls country was in any way concerned were the Puerto Principe issues ot Cuba, 189S-9. These were issued as the result of the occupation of the province by the United States troops during the Spanish-American war. When this government took possession of the en- tire island Uncle Sam sent large consignment of his own stamps to Gu ba, surcharging them across the face with the name of the island and the denomination of the stamp in pesos. This system was continued only until the Cuhans established their govern ment and were in position to issue distinctive stamps of their own.
