Morning I'ost, A friends at; Kinaton nsks our construction of a section of a section of . the revenue act relating o. the tax on tbe sale ot cartridges, and as it may be of interest to oth ers we give it here. The section referred to is quoted as follows: "Section 69 Every mei chant, store keeper or dealer who shall keep in stock, sell or offer for sale any pistol or pistol cart ridges shall pay an annual tax of twenty dollars." The question asked is, ''Does this pertain to rifle cartridges," and are "whole sale dealers only liable to tbe tax?" v We should say tbe section covers the dealer in any cart ridge that can be used in any pistol, let it be called what it may.; The object of the law is to discourage or prevent the use of carrj ing of the pistol, and cartridges which can be used in a pistol, though pri marily intended for a "rifle" would come within the mean ing of the act. The section as quoted makes no distinction between the wholesale and retail deal erw It embraces "every mer chant, storekeeper or dealer" who may keep in stock or sell or offer to Bell cartridges, wnicn may or can De used in pistols. - WORKING NIGHT AND DAY.

' He took bis scat there on Wednesday at noon, whereupon eight of the other officers cot up'aod re fused to sit at table with him. 'In an account of the af fair, the New York Sun says that since the above occur rence the negro has had a tu Lie to itself and that he "shows great unconcern at the feeling exhibited toward him and does not seem to mind eating his meals alone.' Miller thus shows good sense and leads one to believe that he must be from the South. His mistake was in first ta king a si?at with the white of fleers. Charlotte Observre. Health for 10 Cents.
