Col lectio* of the National Tai—Instruc
tions to the Collectors.
The collectors appointed under the recent
act of Congress, to collect the national taxatre
making their arrangements and will soon com
mence operations. The Commissioner of Rev
enue at Washington, has just Issued the fol
lowing important regulations to the collectors
at Philadelphia, which apply equally to col
lectors in this locality:
1. All mechanics, except those who merely
do repairs, must be registered as manufactur
ers, and must take out a license as such if their
annual sales amount to $100.
3- But mechanics and other manufacturers
who sell their own manufacturers at the place
where they are produced are not required to
take out an additional license as traders. This
does not include rectifiers, who must pay both
licenses.
3. If manufacturers have an office, dejKit,
store-room, or agencyjtt a place different from
the place where the goods are made, or if they
sell the manufacturers of others, hi addition to
their own, they must pay a traders’ as well as
a manufacturers' license! Thus, a tobacconist
who both makes cigars and keeps lor sale gixxls
in his line which he has purchased, must take
out bolfi licenses. So must a druggist! wtio
also makes patent articles, or medicines, Ac.,
for which lie has a private formula or receipt.
4. Persons keeping bar-rooms or saloons tor
the sale of liquors must take out a liquor deal
ers’ license. If they also furnish food, they
must, in addition, take out an eating-house li
cense ; and the sale of cigars, Ac., requires a
tobacconist's or retail dealer’s license beside.
Billiard tables require a special license, and
bagatelle tables are reckoned as billiards.
5. Commission merchants, who are also ship
or commercial brokers, are required to take
out two licenses.
6. Grocers selling./Iour by the barrel,or salt
by the sack, or any other article in the origin
al package, are reckoned as wholesale deal
ers.
7. Stamps must be attached to the papers
requiring them at the time of their execution,
and must be obliterated by the person writing
his initials upon them. Telegraphic dispatch
es must be stamped and effaced when deliver
ed to lie transmitted. But railroad and tele
graphic companies are not required to stamp
their own dispatches over their own lines.
8. Arrangements will lie made with the col
lector of his district to supply stamps to par
ties desiring to purchase $.V) worth or over, at
the rates of discount established by the Treas
ury Department
it. Notes and bills of exchange, drawn for a
certain sum, with interest, will lx- stamped ac
cording to the princi|>al sum. Foreign cur
rency will be estimated at the real par of ex
change ; the pound sterling, for instance, at the
rate fixed for sovereigns, not at the nominal
rate of $4 43 3-4, nor at the market rate of ex
change, which is now something above the real I
par.
10. On and after October 1, the following in
struments must lie stamped: All agreements,
appraisements, checks, sight drafts, promissory
notes, inland and foreign bills of exchange,
bills of lading to foreign ports, packages, Ac.,
per express, bonds, certificates of stock, or
profit, of deposit in banks, of damages, and all
other certificates,charter parties, broker's mem
firmndums. (*onvpvRiirHs ninrtcruorfae loacoe tol.
egraph dispatches, custom house entries and
manifests, policies of insurance—life, marine, !
and lire, and renewals of same—passage tick- !
eta to foreign ports, powers of attorneys, prox- ;
ies, probate of wills, protests, warehouse re- i
ceipts, and written, or other original process ;
for commencing suit, Also patent medicines, j
perfumeries, and playing cards.
In reference to public bouses and liquor j
dealers exclusively, it is defined that in a tav- I
ern or public house where liquor is sold licen
ses must be takeu for each business, the li
cense for the tavern to be according to the
rental, and the license for liquor in all cases of
retail, to be twenty dollars. By retail is un
derstood to lie any quantity under three gall
ons. To sell above that quantity is wholesale,
and the license is one hundred dollars. Res
taurants which furnish bedding, and which
keep liquors, are required to obtain three li
censes—first a tavern license, secondly a li
cense for the liquor bar, of twenty dollars, and
thirdly a license for the eating bar, costing
ten dollars, when the receipts amount to, or
exceed one thousand dollars per year. Hat
ing houses are permitted to keep confection
ery without an additional license.
All dealers in liquor by retail are required
to |>ay a license of twenty dollars |>er year._
The penalty for refusal or failure to take out.
license is a line of three times the amount of
duty or taj imposed by the law, one half of
which goes to the informer. These taxes are,
of course, in addition to the State and city li
censes now imposed, and the accumulation of
expenses will materially affect the smaller
dealers who alsnind in every part of the city. !
The prosecution of delinquents is made im- 1
perative on the collectors, who hold the ;
names and residences of all dealers, so that
escape from the penalty is next to impossible.
A Genuine Puritan Colony.
In the years 1779-80, three families of Cape
Cod went down into what is now Litchfield,
Me., and settled, two brothers, Smith, with
their wives, and their sister, with her husband.
They were people who feared God. Far away
in the wilderness with only two families beside
themselves, they instituted Sabbath worship.
They sustained it alone for many years. Oc
casionally a preacher came among them.
A ot till thirty years bad gone, did a home
missionary labor continuously among them.
In 1811,thirty-two years after their settlement, i
a Congregational church was organized. It ;
contained eleven members; five, of them were
the two brothers, their wives, and their sister;
six of them were the children of these broth
ers and sisters. This church last year cele
brated its semi-centenary. The whole num
ber who have joined it is 186; 88 were from
these three families; Five of its deacons ‘ have
been from these families. It is supposed that
ten at least of the descendants have entered or
arc preparing to enter the ministry. This lit
tle company would have their academy, a real
Puritan iustinct. They have promoted tem
perance, good morals, and “every good word
and work. ’ Not one of the GOO descendants
of these three families is known to have been
of degraded moral character; it is believed
that there is not a drunkard or a tippler among
them all. Let little companies of Christians,
in the small and new hamlets of California,
learn much to quicken and encourage them;
let parents especially believe, what hundreds
of such Puritan histories may teaeh them, that
it is well with the lamilies that are faithful to
Cod; let them doubt not that there is a sub
stantial bn«is for baptizing their children into
tile same faith with themselves. The above
facts w ill l„. found more at length in Tiie Con
gregational Quarterly for July.
Commerce of the Tutted States with Great
Britain.
Tiie returns of the British Board of Trade
show that the imports into Great Britain and
Ireland from tills country, between the 1st of
January and the 1st of July were, in round
numbers, 52 1-2 million dollars from Northern
and$1,990,000 from Southern ports; against
62 millions in 1SG1 from Northern ports, and
105 millions from Southern ports. We copy
t le sterling figures:
1862. 1861.
Imports from Northern ports £1(1,536,857 £10.694,618
“ “ Southern ports 37U.566 21,082,161
This shows a loss to the Southern States of
over 100 million dollars in exports, and a dim
inution of bills on Europe to that extent.—
This 100 million dollars has been driven away
to other countries by the war. The amount
of British manufactures sent to us in return
for our exports of produce, is—
1862. 1861.
fo Northern ports £6,031,457 £6,006,228
To Southern *• 27.030 228,789
We have, in the first half of tills year thus
imported| 1 1-4 million sterling in value more
than in the corresponding period of last, year,
when everybody lelt so very poor in compari
son to what they do now. We import more at
higher prices this year than at lower prices
last year, and find it more easy to pay for the
increased importation. The balance of trade
wvcn vuuwii ttj, mu ii-.'sauuii
bI Southern exports; and the specie which
would have circulated in the South for her cot
ton, has, instead, been sent to Europe, in the
seven months ending :11st July, Great Britain
received £5,5:18,821 in specie. Our own re
turn* show that we have shipped to Euro|>e
143,207,352 in s|H'cie, up to the present time.
< >ur exports of coni and flour—that is, from
Korthernfport.—were 1,572,012 quarters wheat,
and 2.078,000 cwts. of wheat, meat, and flour,
in seven months; while only 40,482 cwts. of
raw cotton were sent to England, against 6,
714,400 cwt«. in the same period.
