P. Kin ard, Nowborry C. H. Internal Revenue. Decisions. As a mutter of fgreat interest to many Of our renders, we subjoin a portion of the last part of Commis? sioner Rollins' instructions for tho assessment of tho annual taxes of 1867. They have been prepared and printed to answer tho questions most frequently presented: 1. Section 71 requires all special tax receipts (except in cases of auc? tioneers, produce brokers, commer? cial brokers, patent-right dealers, photographers, builders, insurance agents and pcdlers,) to specify tho place at which tho business is to be done, aud tho word "pince," as hero used, is construed to mean tho pre? mises occupied by the tax-payer in the prosecution of his business, who-1 ther the placo be a single room in a building coutaiuiug mauy rooms, or whether it bc several buildings stand? ing upon tho same premises and used for a common purpose. But there are certain branches of business which are not restricted to such pre? mises, as it is provided iu tho Act that lawyers, physicians, surgeons, dentists, cattle brokers and horse dealers may do business at any place whatever without being subject to additional special tax. Proprietors of circuses, jugglers, ?fcc, must pay a special tax for each State in which they exhibit. 2. The special tax of dealers must be assoBsed upon the basis of all sales made, either by themselves or through others, except those through other wholesale dealers on commissiou. 3. Manufacturers may, without additional liability, sell their wares at the place of manufacture, or at their principal office, provided no wares aro kept, except as samples, at such office. But if a manufacturer sell at his factory, or at his office, goods uot of bis own production, he must pay tax as a dealer if such sales exceed $1,000 annually, and such tax will bo assessed upon his sales of such goods only, and not upon sales of his own manufactures. 4. Special tax receipts are not transferable, but in case of removal, the tax-payer is liable to additional tax unless tho fact of removal is regis? tered, ns provided in section 75. 5. The tax required under the pro? viso to section 76, for all or either two of tho classes of business therein named, is $25. 6. The special tax of a bank should be assessed upon its chartered capi? tal; that of a banker upon tho amount of capital used or employed. 7. Whenever a retail dealer is found to have made sales 'exceeding $25,000, ho should bo assessed as a wholesale dealer from the dato of his liability as a retail dealer. The col? lector should endorse upon his tax receipt the amount of re-assessment paid. 8. The liability to special tax de? pends, in many cases, upon the ques? tion whether tho party makes a busi? ness of doing the acts specified. Occasional acts do not render a per? son liablo to special tax, but it is not necessary that tho business should be his solo business, or even his princi? pal one, iu order that ho may beheld liablo. If a person bolds ont to the public by advertisement, by words, deeds or writing, that he is ready to transact any kind of business subject to special tax, ho must pay such tax, although tho business in qnostiou may not bo his chief or exclusive occupation. lu tho following named occupations aud professions, oven occasional acts do not appear to be allowed by tho terms of the law with? out liability: Wholesale and retail dealers in liquors, lottery-ticket deal? ers, ( list il Inn;, brewers, rectifiers, coal oil distillers, insurance agents, ped? iera, photographers, circuses, jug? glers, bowling alleys, proprietors of gift enterprises and lawyers. ? 9. Wholesaloand rotail dealers may do business as confectioners and apothecaries at tho same place with? out the additional special tax. 10. Under the Act of March 2, 1807, a retail liquor dealer may sell liquors in quantities of moro than three gallons at one time to the same purchaser, without being thereby rendered liable as a wholesale liqnor dealer. 11. YVholesalo dealers in liquor may sell liquor at retail, and both wholcsalo aud retail dealei-s in liquor may sell other merchandize, and may sell liquor to be drunk on tho pre? mises, without payment of addi? tional special tax, but all sales must be included in the basis of their spe? cial tax as dealers. 12. If thc sales of a retail dealev in liquors exceed $25,000, ho shall bo re-assessed as a wholesalo dealer in liquors. The collector should enter the amount of re-assessment paid him upon tho tax receipt. 13. Hotel-keerjers may feed the horses of their guests without paying tax as livery stable keepers. 14. If a produce broker's sales ex? ceed $10,000 annually, he should bo treated as a commercial broker or a dealer, as the case may be. 15. Pedlers may buy up produce to sell agnin, as pedlers, without liabili? ty as produco "brokers. Produce brokers cannot pcddlo produco from house to houso without incurring liability as pedlers. 1G. Original or unbroken packages or pieces, ns referred to in paragraph 32 of section 79, are held to bo pack? ages or pieces sold just as they como from tho manufacturer, wholesale dealer, or importer, without being broken or divided. 17. Brewers and rectifiers may sell their liquors nt tho brewery or place of rectification, in largo or small quantities, either to be drunk on tho premises or not, without payment of other special tax. Brewers and rec? tifiers may also deliver their liquors I upon orders previously received to their regular customers about tho country, without paymenL of special tax as pedlers. j 18. Farmers and others who fre? quently furnish food and lodgings to travelers for pay should bo taxed as hotel-keepers. Yet au occasional act of that kind should not be construed as rendering any person liable to such tax. 19. Persons engaged in tho busi? ness of preparing legal papers in sup? port of claims ngaiust tho General Government, who do not present the claims personally, or by letter before tho departments, should bo taxed as conveyancers, unless paying special I tax as lawyers or special agents. PnosrEcnvE VOTERS.-Tho loose? ness of language indulged in now-a days by Congressmen aud news? papers is destroying all exactitude of knowledge and thoughts among tho American people. A radical statistician tells us that the "recon? struction law is revolutionizing tho South, because in creating a mliiioa of black voters, it has made," etc., etc. Now, this may revolutionize the South, but it will not create any? thing like a "million" of black voters. Tho entire colored popu? lation of the ten excluded States by last census was 3,370,000; and wo know by the statistics of General Howard that it has not increased since that time. Tho actual ratio of voters to tho population, even in populous and drfnselv settled white States like this, is (as near ns may be) one-sixth-though a somowhat larger proportion is legally entitled to vote. But oven on the estimate that in very exciting elections, ono fifth of the population may vote, wo shall bo very far indeed from gotting anything like a million voters among the Southern blacks. On no reason? able or intelligent calculation what? ever can wo find over a half a million of voters among tho black population of the ten excluded States. So thr t tho estimate of a "million" may be 6aid to be wrong only by the tritio of 500,000.-NtJio York Times. COTTON GUOWTNG.-Throughout tho cotton region thero is a general feel? ing of depression, largely consequent upon the political prospect of its future, that inevitably tends to and foreshadows a decrease in the pro? duction of tho staple. Already, it is said, the feeling among planters obtains to a great extont that tho main consideration should be, and will be, to raise provisions for them? selves and those dependent on thom, and to regard tho raising of cotton simply as secondary and auxiliary, limiting its production ta tho extent of merely providing necessaries of living that cannot bo producod at homo. A poor show toward reviving and invigorating that commerce which languishes now for tho nou? rishment u thrifty cotton region here? tofore gavo and would again indubi? tably yield.-Memphis Merchant's Ex? change Price Current. A Philadelphia stroet-c?Y conductor was arrested for sneering at two aris? tocratic sable damsels. DESTITUTION AND STARVATION. -The Mayor of our city is informed that a death occurred in a neighboring dis? trict in this County very recently, from starvation. It is sinted that two widow ladies aud their families aro occupying tho samo house. Thoy were reduced to such destitution as to compol them to allowance them? selves to only three mouthfuls of corn bread for each meal. This being iu iBcient to sustain lifo, ono of tho Uousohold bas actually perished from starvatiou. Comment is uuneccssary. [New?nan (Ga.) Herald, 6th. RIOTS IN LUZERNE COUNTY, PA. The Sheriff of Luzerne County, Pa., telegraphed to Governor Geary that a riot existed in Hazleton and Foster townships, in that County, that bis authority was exhausted, and that an armed and organized force was neces? sary. The cause of the riot is astriko for higher wages, the strikers at? tempting to proveut other men from working. HEAR REASON - STRENGTHEN THE DEFENCES-When a garrison apprehends an attack from an outside ene? my, what docs it do? lt strengthens thc defences. Tho human system, at this pe? riod of the year, is beleaguered by morbid influences. The atmosphere is full of them. Every chango of weailrer lays tho feeble open to their attacks. What is to bo done in order to bafllo these unseen, but ever-active, foes? Strengthen the defences. Do you ask how? Thc answer is simple the means within thc rench of all: Rein? force tho vital organs and tho nervous system with HOSTE'liER'S PITTERS. Tone tho stomach, regulate tho bowels, rouse thc e'uggish liver, cheer tho spirits, enrich and purify tho vital current with ITOSTETTER'S RITTERS. That's the way to strengthen the defences, and render tho capital of health impregnable. If you wish to esca?o bilious headache, intermit? tent fever, indigestion and nervous visita? tions-to enjo/, in all its plenitude, tho blessing of "a sound mind in a sound body"-uso this incomparable preventivo and restorative. It preserves health in the healthy, and rene as it iu the weak and ailing.

TO BE GIVEN AT THE Maryland Institute, Baltimore, " APRIL 30, 18G7. THE profits of thia Concert will bo given to tho Southern Orphan's Association, to tlic subjoined address from tho officers of which wo call tho attention of tho public: Wo, tho ofticera of tho Southern Or? phan's Association, for tho maintenance and education of tho destituto orphans of deceased Southern soldiers and sailors, earnestly solicit tho sympathy and co-ope? ration in our Grand Presentation Concert, of all who desiro to seo tho "HOME AND SCHOOL" Enabled to receive and caro for all tho needy ones who seek its shelter and pro? tection. Thanking our friends for their past con? tributions and assistance, we again appeal to them to help us in a moro extensivo en? terprise. It is tho design of this Associa? tion to erect a "HOME AND SCHOOL" for tho orphans of tho South, both malo and female, on an extensivo seato, in tho city of Richmond, Virginia. As an inducement to havo tho building located there, tho Com? mon Council of that city havo guaranteed a sufficient lot of land, in an elevated and healthful location, and will increase tho quantity of land if needed. It is with a ionlident hope ?n a favorable responso to this appeal to a public which has never yet failed to sustain a charitahlo institution, that we havo entered into an arrangement with Mesar... L. T. PALMER fe CO., No. 13 Holliday street, Baltimore, to organizo a GRAND MUSICAL .PRE?

McCruniN, " Mrs. Dr. J. B. BEAN, " " It may scorn unnecessary to add a singlo word to tho above address", but calls upon tho institution havo been so numerous and pressing, and tho struggle through which it is now passing to widen thc circle of its charities, is of such an arduous nature, that the management cannot too strongly urge upon the humano and pathotic every? where an activo participation in this addi? tional attempt to alleviate the sad condi? tion of great numbers of helpless children, rendered thus by tho terribie war through which wc have passed. And, assuredly, whatever may havo been tho relative po? litical views of ladies and geutlomcn here? tofore, all must agrco that tho children referred to could not. by any possibility, havo had any agency in bringing about their present deplorable and destitute con? dition, aud aro euitablo objects for tho charity of all persons, of whatever shade of political opinion. Tho "Homo and School" which they now moro particularly seek to establish and endow, will bo of in? calculable benefit, by providing not only food and raiment for these helpless ones, but likewise solid and thorough education; thus qualifying them for future usefulness to society at large.
