News and Courier : Please let the public know through your valuable paper wheth er it is right and legal to sell tobac co by the box, (in other- words an unbroken package,) and cigars the same, by the box ? Several parties are desirous of knowing the law on this subject. We all have $5 licences, and the question arises whether we can sell by the box ; also, aan farm ers sell to hands without license ? Your prompt notice of this will give a great -deal of satisfaction, in this part of the State any way. Yours, truly, R. T. Mar. AMSWER. Any person or firm who has paid a special tax, or license, as a dealer in manufactured to'acco, is author ized to sell tobacco, snuff or cigars in any quantity, no difference being made between wholesale and retail. The package must be marked, brand ed and stamped as required by law, and when the goods are retailed they must be kept in the stamped package until a sale is made. The law de fines a dealer in tobacco to be : "Ev'to.ry person whose "business it is to sell, or offer for sale, manufac tured tobacco, snuff and cigars ;" and, in case of farmers, the depart ment has decided that ,when they make it a business to keep tobacco for sale to their workmen, or to issue as rations, receiving pay therefor, either in labor, in produce, or in any other manner, they become lia ble as dealers. The law also makes it the imperative duty of every such dealer to destroy the package and stamp as soon as it is emptied. This information is given us by Col lector Ransier. THE THara Trau MOVEMENT ---The fact that Forney's Sunday Chroni ce, the Sunday .Nationat Intelli gencer, and Col. Fitzgerald's Phila delphia Sunday City Items all came out on Sunday last in favor of the third term is looked upon by some of the guidnunos a. indicatmng the formal braing of ground in that movement. Quite likely, however, the three papers opened voice to gether on the same note by accident. The Washington special of the Cin cinnati Commercial, however, pro fesses to have "solid foundation for the statement" that the demonstra tion means business. He says in this connection that "there are ten open and avowved advocates of the project to be met with now, where there was one prior to the elections. Many Republicans apparently accept the result as indisputably establish ing the fact that the party cannot be successful next year if Grant is not their candidate for President, among those who are most positive in this belief in General Grant himself.-. W~ashington Star. .A PnoroSITIon.-A wvriter in the Christian Intelligencer agrees to pay all the bills to support the home and foreign missionaries, with a magnificent remainder, out of the waste in tobacco used by professing Christians, and proposes that the whole of this wasto be"aman cent offering to the Lord." gi The New~Orleans' iicayune says : "The truth is, that the people will - alwaya add to or substract from a measure, the moral weight of the men who propose it. In other words, they must have confidence in the law-makers before they will y'ield respet and obedience to the A woman who weighs seven hun dred and flity rounds, is wintering No nrzazzca To HpL.-Goig up a [)ti stept;' a b gsa .,boy about eipon years of ago Boated o the Bid k, bareheaded, in the full blaze of ' he scorching sun.

"Makes no difference to me wheth er I sit iq the sun o - the .shade, ily=n rdA Blioy, "mother tans me up three or four times a day anyhow." The sum awarded y the English courts for pars onal injures on rail roads during the year ending June last, amotdnted- to $1,600%0^0) ed for loss and damage to goods iu transit, $1,310,000, a total of mioro than two an4,ahajf millio s ox 1ol lars, %ear' o-h'alf *h' avbrhgo dividend. The August sums paid on both considia Ione were by tho London and Northwestern, $760,340. The Great Eastern paid, nearly $200,000 as - .a btoher's bill, but only about $40,090 for goods. One line alone, the Maryport and Carlisle, which is probably a mineral railway, had nothing to pay for killing and maiming, and t4lo netrqpolitan 'dis trict shows a similar blank, for a similar reason, as to goods, although the return does not include those losses which pass through the eloak room. The two underground lines paid between $45,000 and $50,00,0 as compensation for personal injuries, although their liabilities are rostrie ed by a remarkable provision intheir acts to $500 in the case: of third class passengers. Is IT LAwFUr-"Justice," Writing to the Marion S. 0., Merchant and Farmer, cites an instance of the marriage, at Mars' Bluff, of an elder ly gentleman to his own niece, the daughter of his sister, and asks whether it be lawful &c. The Mer chant di IFarmer replies to its cor respondent by quoting the State statute on this point which includes this very relationship in its prohibi tion of marriages, and deplores the lack of morality, evinced in the transaction, both on the part of the contracting persons and tho minis ter who officiated at the ceremony. Gen. Jubal A. Early, president of the southern historical society, says that this association possesses a nearly complete set of all the reports printed by the Confederate depart ments, including . the . president's messages, reports of. battles, acts of the Confederate congress an ' state governments, etc. It also has a full set of manuscript reports of Gen. L ,ngstreot's corps, the papers of Gin. J. E. B. Stuart, all of Gen. S. D. Lee's corps, and many other valuable reports of Confederate of ficers, besides a number of federal official reports. For the fiscal year ending June 80, 1875, North Carolina paid inter nal revenue taxes to the amount of $1,629,984, nete-that is, after asses sors, collectors, gaugers, weighors, tasters, smellers, samplers, watchers informers, and the whole brood of them, had their share, which, no doubt, was a good round sum. An Englishman was boasting to a Yankee that they had a book in the British museum which was once owned by Cicero. "Oh, that ain't nothin,'' replied the Yankee ; "in the musem in JDostons, tIpy've got the lead pencil .that Noah: used to check off the animals that went into the ark." Jacob Benjamin, aged fifty five, a rich pawvnbroker of Baltimore, died receiitly from erysipelas, which was produced by the use ,of hair dye. The 'deceased used the hair dye or his whiskers, and it irritated his throat, He then sha'redlbis whiskerE off, when erysipelas sot in. The new State constitution oj Nebraska contains a provision thai the United States Sonators shall hor-eafter be elected by direct vote of the people. It will ho an in teresting question now to bo set tied whether this is not in conflici with the constitution of the United States. A woman cured her hnusband of staying out late at niighit by going to the door when he came home and whispered through the keyhole: "Is that you Willie 1" Her hus band's name is John, and he stays at home every night now, and sleops with one eyje open sand a revolver un der his pl' ow CHANGZs IN.
