The Lament ok the J;’lea. .
. Long'years liave I wandered unfettered and free,,
And bitten the young and tlie old,
And laid in the conch, of the rich and the poor, -
And frightened the warrior bold.'
But power is waning fast from me—
A Powder Magnetic and strong,
Inventedby Lyon, is death to our tribe,
And away I must travel ere long. .
Lyon’s Powder is harmless to mankind, hnt will kill

By_t.be act March 3, 1563.-the penalty, of two Tears’
imprisonment is added to the punishment provided in
former acts, for those who fail to take out license when,
'required by the excise laws of the United Slates. .
The former annual assessment was much embarrass
ed for want of information on the part of the citizens,
with regard to the duties imposed on them by the ex
cise law. It is manifest that with the knowledge now
attained, on the part of the tax-payer, and with the as
sistance rendered by this circular, ignorance of the law
can no Longer be pleaded by delinquents in the hope of
avoiding the penalties provided.
