temporary employees, carried upon tho
rolls of the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing, engaged In canceling the in
ternal revenue stamps printed on bank
cheoks, It will bo remembered that at
tbe last session of Congress the tax on
tobacco was reduced from sixteen to
Ight cents per pound, and the two cent
stamp on bank chocks was nbolished;
that is, the law to that effect will be put
in force from the first of July. All to
bacco stamps that were printed before
the law was passed had to be changed to
conform to theprovlsions of the new law,
That made additional work for the
B treau of Eugraving and Printing. The
alteration was printed across the face of
tho stamps, and they were reissued Jnsl
as if tbey were new. With the bank
checks it is difierenl. Mauy of the banks
have their own chocks and drafts with
the stamps printed upon them. These
are made into books, some of which are
gotten up on a very elaborate scale,
Most of ttie banks do not like to lose the
checks, though the stamps printed on
them aro now worthless, and the depart
ment has consented to return the book
after canceling the stamps and noting
the amount of debate. The number of
sUnips in each book is first oounted by
an expert from the Bureau of Engraving
and Printiug and accouut thereof taken
The books aro then passed to the ladle
before meutioned, who, with a small
hand stamp, print the word "canceled
across the face of the stamp, aud the
book of checks is ready to go bark to th
bank from whence it came. One of th
employees said that over 1,000,000 bank
stamps have thus far been canceled I
this way, aud there are probably several
millions moro to be disposed of in th
same manner.

with a genlle astonishment. He spoke
with enthusiasm of the might and power
of tbo west, and said he had been to St.

to have more of the elements of future
greatness than any city in the west. He
thought the great railroads centering

rapidly, and promising to grow in power
and wealth beyond anything in the his
