YOUB MISSION.
If jou canoot on the ocean,
Sail among the swiftest fleet,
Rocking on the highest billws,
Laughing at the storm you meet;
Ton can stand among the Sailors,
Anchored yet within the bay,
You can lend a hand to help them,
When they launch tbcir boats away.
If you are too eak to journey
Up the mountains steep and high,
You can stand within the valley
While the multitude go by;
Ton can chant the happy measures
As they slowly pass along;
Though they may forget the Singer,
They will not forget the song.
J yeu have not gold and silver
:fer ready at command,
If you cannot toward the needy
Reach an ever open hand,
You can visit the afflicted,
O'er the erring you can weep.
You can be a true disciple,
Sitting at the Savior's feet.
If you cannot in tlje harvest,
.Garner up the richest sheaves,
Many a grain, both iipe and golden,
Will the careless reaper leave.
You can glean. among the briars,
Growing rank against the wall,
for it may be that their shadow .
flides the heaviest wheat of all.
Do not then 6tand idly waiting,
For some greater work to do.
Portunc is a lazy goddess,
She will never come to you
Go and tflil in any vineyard.
Do not fear to do or dare.
If you want a field of labor,
You can find it anywhere.

BONE MANURE.
WARRANTED GENUINE.
Being made of the best material and in the most
approved manner, it is recommended to the public
as superior to any other in lhe market. All who
havg used it speak of it in the highest terms of

"We would state that, after careful examination,
we believe this Phosphate has been improved each
3ear since its introduction in this market, and that
it will continue to maintain its present high stand

GENERAL REMARKS.
Revenue Stamps may be used indiscriminately
upon, any of tbe matters or things enumerated in
schedule B, except proprietary and playing card
stamps, for which a special use has been provided.
Postage stamps cannot be used in payment of the
duty chargeable on instruments. ,
It is the duty of the maker of an instrument to
affix and cancel the stamp thereon. .If he neglects
to do so, the party for whose. use h is made ina
stamp it before it is used; but in no case can- it be
legally used without a stamp; and if used after the
30th of June, 1S64, and used without stamp, it
cannot afterwards be effectually stamped. Any
failure upon the part of the maker of an instrument
to appropriately st:tmp it, renders him liable to a
penalty of two hundred dollars.
Suits are commenced in many States by other
process than writ, viz: summons, warrant, publica
tion, petition, c, in which case these, as the origi
nal process, severally require stamps.
Writs of scira faci;s ate subject to stamp dutyas
original processes.
The jurat of an affidavit, taken before a Justice of
the peace, Notary Public, or other officer duly au
thorized to take affidavits, is held to be a certificate,
and subject to a stamp duty of 5 cents, except wheu
taken in suits or legal proceedings..
Certificates of loan, in w hich there shall appear
any printed or written evidence of an amount of mo
ney to be paid on demand, or at any time designa
ted, are subject to stamp duty as "Promissory
Notes."
The assignment of u mortgage is s .bject to the
same stamp duty as that imposed upon the original
instrument; that is to say, for every sum of five hun
dred dollars, or any fractional part thereof, of the
amount secured by the mortgage, at the time of its
assignment, there must be affixed a stamp or' stamps,
denoting a duty of fifty cents.
When two or more persons join in the execution
of an instrument, the starrps to which the instru
ment is liable under the law, may bo affixed and
cancelled by one' of Hie parties.
In conveyances of real estate, the law provides
that the stamp affixed must answer to the value of
the estate on interest conveyed.
No stamp is required on any -warrant 'of attorney
accompanying a bond or note, when such bond or
note l!as affixed thereto the frtamp or stamps denot
ing the duty required, and whenever awy bond or
note is secured by mortgage, but one stWnp duty i3
required on such pnper., such stamp duty being-the
highest rate required for such instruments, or either
of them. In such ca.e, a note or memorandum of
the value or denomination of the stamp affixed
should be made upon the margin or in the acknowl
edgment of the instrument which is not stamped.
