Tax on Capital Used by Brokers.
GREAT EXCITEMENT IN WALL STREET.
The operators iu stocks and securities in
Wall street are in a fever of excitement in rela
tion to a movement that has been begun by
Mr. E. I>. Webster, assessor of the thirty
second district, with a view to enforcing the
law providing for a tax of one-twenty-fonrili
of one per cent, on all capital in active use.—
The brokers assert that they are mere agents of
the capitalists, from whom they borrow money
for investment in stocks and other securities,
and that consequently they are not liable to
pay the lax. The assessor relies on the 79th
and 110th sections of the revenue act for au
thority to collect this impost on capital. In
the former section brokers and other persons
who deal in stocks, securities, &c., are defined
as “ baukers,” and the latter provides that all
‘•bankers" shall pay “a tax of one-twenty
fonrth ot one per centum each month upon the
capital of any hauk, association, company or
corporation, and on the capital employed by
any person engaged in the business of bank
ing.” The effort uow being made to collect
the tax has called forth considerable denuncia
tion in “ the street,” and iu their excitement
some of the principal brokers threaten to raise
two millions of dollars either to have their
construction of the law approved by the Wash
ington authorities or to have the law repealed.
If the tax on the capital in active use in Wall i
street should he paid, there would tie an in
crease of the revenue of about ?4,000,000 per
annum.
Tho revenue' officers of the thirty-second
district, who have charge of the collection of
tlds tax, assert that the whole amount of capi
tal returned by the brokers and other specula
tors in Wall street, for the past year, as taxa
ble, is fifteen millions of dollars. This allega
tion must astonish the public, for, if it is true,
the army of speculators who deal In stocks
and securities, representing hundreds ot mil
lions of dollars, perform financial miracles
daily. One firm, which, it is charged, has lock
ed up ten millions to derange the money mar
ket, aud sent sixty millions of Erie ” Ryiug,”
have made returns, showing that their capital
is only seventy thousand dollars, nnd yet they
confess that they use annually a capital of three
hundred millions of dollars. It is proposed to
draw out this capital from its lurking place,
audio make it pay the tax. This, however,
would tend to exhibit the financial status of the
brokers, and hence the law is resisted.
The revenue officers assert, after patient in
vestigation and inquiry, that the amount of
capital in actual use In Wall street, during a
year, is not less than a thousand millions—that
is, that large amount changes bands, and makes
fortunes for the owners or speculators on its
way. A delegation of brokers went to Wash
ington a few days ago, and, it is said, had an in
terview with Secretary McCulloch in relation
to their liabilily to pay the tax. The result of
the interview has not leaked out, nnd as Mr.
Webster is immovable in his determination to
enforce the law, it is believed, in the absence
of any communication from Mr. McCulloch,
that the delegation were unable to accomplish
their object.
Testerdav afternoon some of the principal
brokers in Wall street had an interview with
Mr. Webster, who informed them that the law
providing lor the tax is very clear nnd positive,
nnd that the tax must be paid. Mr. Webster
added thnt Lite decision of the Deputy Commis
sioner ot Internal Revenue, Mr. Thomas Har
land, covered the question involved. The Com
missioner, he said, decided, when the whole
subject was referred to him, that “ if a banker
(which the 79th section declares may be a
broker)borrows money and uses it in Ills bulk
ing business, it should be treated as a part of
his capital, and be subject to the monthly tax
of one-twenty-fourth ol one per cent.”
It is cited as a proof that an immense amouut
of capital does not pay this tax, that one of the
largest banking houses in Wall street has au
thority to draw on a European firm for £500,-
000, and that the latter amount is not included
in the returns of the house, although it may be
in active use.
The Grave of a Young Girl Opened and
the Bodt Despoiled of Clothing and Jew
elry.—The Belleville (Mo.) Democrat , January
20tb, says:
On last Monday the reniaius of Miss Maggie
McCarren, a lovely and interesting girl of
eighteen, the only daughter and child of Mr.
Edward McCarren, an old aiid highly esteemed
citizen of this county, living near Mascoutah,
were consigned to the grave. The funeral took
place about 2 o’clock in the afternoon. Next
day, about the same hour, the grief-stricken
parents paid a visit to the grave of their darl
ing child, t» water it anew with their tears
Jndge of their feelings of horror to find that
the grave bad been tampered with, and to allay
the horrible suspicion that took shape and
-form in their minds, the grave was reopened,
when it became apparent that the tomb had
been ruthlessly invaded the night previous.—
The clothes in which their beloved daughter
was buried had been stripped from her body,
together with the ornaments upon her person,
and carried away as booty. The body was in
such a disarranged condition as to require to
be redressed and reinterred. The anguish of
the foud parents nt this gross indignity and
outrage cannot be described. We have learned
that the distressed parents have caused the re
mains of their beloved child to be interred in
the garden contignons to their residence, where
it is hoped she will be permitted to repose in
peace. Mr. McCarren offers a reward of SI,OOO
for the detection and capture of the authors of
this inhuman outrage.
Boston, January 30.—At the evening session
of the Antl-81avery Society Mrs. Cora S. V.
Daniels described the scenes she witnessed in
the Boutb, and gave a sad account ol the con
dition of that country. Addresses were made
by J. M. Powell, J. M. Mouning, Wendell
Phillips, and others, urging the agitation of the
question of a constitutional amendment, after
which the society adjourned.
Boston, Mass., January 30.—A. D. Pike was
arrested on Thursday at Fitzburg for adultery
with his daughter-in-law, and an indictment for
the murder of his wife was issued. Shortly
after his conduct toward his daughter-in-law
becoming known, it is said that he told her that
if her mother was out of the way he Would
marry her, and Mrs. Pike died on Thursday in
violent spasms, declared by physicians to be
the effects.of arsenic. The daughter has also
been arrested. The deceased was about fifty
years old and the daughter twenty-six.

“ The attention of the pub’ic is called to an adver

It is said to be the most i ffective cure for the diseases
enumerated ever discovered. It is certainly creating
a sensation in the medicnl world, and its discovery
will be hailed with delight by thousands who have
been hopelessly afflicted.
“It is more effective than the Hot Springs sf Arkan
sas, many persons having returned from, that fountain
of health unrelieved have been cured permanently by
its use. It is the discovery of one of the most emi
nent and successful physicians on the Continent,
whose faith in its curative qualities is sufficiently at
tested by thousands. We have been assured by gen
tlemen with whom we are well acquainted, that they
have seen cures effected in the line of diseases it pro
iesses to treat that had baffled the skill of physicians
of the greatest research and highest standing. We,
therefore, do not hesitate to endorse to the confidence
of the afflicted.”
Notioe from the Louisville Journal.
“ We invito attention to Mr. Wm. G. Gbsv’s adver
tisement of this newly discovered and most wonderful
remedy. It is coiled the ‘ Jesuits’ Secret,’ might he
called the Becret of Pt rpctual Youth. Its invigorat
ing, beautifying, and life prolonging qualities are cer
tainly unsurpassed; nay, they are unequaled In this
respect, it throws the famous Hot Springs in Arkan
sas, almost magical as they are, far Into the shade. It
throws iuto the shade everything of the kind, indeed,
except the Fountain of Youth which Pose* di Leon
sought, and from which the Elixir seems to have been
gathered. Bnt we will not undertake to describe the
properties of this panacea. It can he tried more easily
than described or imagined.”

ECONOMY!
Time, Money and Labor Saved.
THE AUTOMATIC CLOTHES WASHER
AND BOILER.
_A_
Thi ß most useful invention has been Introduced
into this city by the undersigned, who guarantees tho
performance of all that is claimed for It. Tho cost is
comparatively trifling—SlX DOLLARS —when is
considered the amount of time, money and labor saved
by it* use.
This Boiler operates upon purely philosophical prin
ciples.
It is self-acting, and dispenses entirely with labor
and the wear of clothes.
The hot suds and steam, by the action of lire, are
driven up through tubes, poured upon the clothes,
and forced thorough the fabric with astonishing rapid-
K causing it perfectly without any rubbing. It has
.horoqghly tested, and pronounced unequaled as
a Clothes Washer by those who have used It.
All fabrics, from the finest laces to the bed blanket,
can be washed perfectly and with ease, without the
aid of the lubhing-board. For Flannels it is invalua
ble, as the ruhb ng, rolliug and pressing process must
necessarily full them more or less.
It is truly a labor aud clothes saving invention.—
Washing will no longer be a hardship, and washing
day no longer a terror and a dread w “*'
~»n oe used in any boiler, nnd th
low price of 'he article places it within the reach of
every family.
'The saving in the wear of clothes will very soon pay
for the outlay.
It is estimated that 200 to 300 gallons of boiled suds
pass through the clothes in thirty minutes; this being
the longest time required for cleansing a boiler full of
clothes.
I refer, confidently, to the following named gentle
men, who have seen the Automatic Washer and
Baiter in operation:
Rev. James S. Lamar, E. R. Schneider, Dr. W.
B. Wells and James W. Meredith, Esq.

OF BALTIMORE,
"W^"ORKB under the immediate superintendence
of Dr. G. A. Liebig, the celebrated agricultural
hemist, now offer their unrivaled
GrXJAIVO
TO THE
PLANTERS OF GEORGIA.
Guarantied to he equal to am- fertilizer heretofore
used, not excepting genuine Peruvian Guano. By
various tests made by experienced planters of cotton,
it has been conclusively proven that an application,
pound for pound, alongside Peruvian, produces fnily
as good results in favorable seasons, and in dry
weather the crop stands the drought much better. It
has also been demonstrated that in every case it makos
A GOOD STAND, GROWS OFF QUICKLY, MA
TURES THE CROP Earlier and PICKS OUT
BETTER than wherenone is applied, and MAKES
A BETTER and HEAVIER STAPLE.
When applied at the rale of 250 pounds per acre, it
will make two good successive crops, thus aemnnst ra
ting its permunet qualities, which cannot, lie said of
Peruvian. One hundred end fifty to two hundred
pounds have always, in average seasons, INCREAS
ED THE CROP /ONE HUNDRED PER CENT.
Where a more liberal application .Inis b< cn made, the
yield lias been in proportion. This can be relied
upon on y when the following dlree (on* are complied
wit >, although some plsnters have gotten the best re
suits by listing, the same as is done with Peruvian.
DIRECTIONS:
Rub the seed with the Guano before planting, and
use not less than 150 pounds per acre in the drill, IN
DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE SEED. Tho
application can he increased to 500 pounds WITH
OUT ANY RISK, with a ro responding and certain
result. Be sure the land Is well dmlne 1, and the plow
and hoe kept vigorously going, to ke p down tlio
grass and give tho cotton plant a chance to get tlie
full benefit of the manure, otherwise it must tail of
Its proper result. It will give equal results ou any
other crop to which it is applied. The manufacturers
GUARANTEE SATISFACTORY RESULTS IN
ALL CAsES il the foregoing directions are complied
with.
We confidently recommend this FERTILIZER to
our friends and customers, feeling assured from the
experience ot the past two years, that it will accom
plish all that is claimed for it by the manufacturers.
Price per ton at 9,000 pounds, §7O Cash.
To responsible parties desiring time, we are pre

We have a large nuinbor ol planters’ certificates,
