ternal revenue tax shall be - levied and col
lected, in addition to the duties paid upon

be forfeited to the United States; and the
importation of such cigars or cheroots shall
be deemed the manufacture thereof, and
shall be subject to all the duties, liabilities
and penalties imposed by . law upon the
manufacture of domestic cigars and cigar
ettes.
The Finance Committee recommended the
following amendment:
That section 98 be amended by striking
out all after the enacting clause, and insert
ing in lieu thereof the following: "That
Mere shall be levied and collected, and paid
on all sales of real estate, wares, merchan
dise, articles or things, at auction, including
all sales of stocks, bonds and other securi
ties, a duty of one-tenth of one per centum
on the gross amount of such sales ;
and every auctioneer or other person
making such sales as aforesaid shall
at the end of each and every month, or
within ten days thereafter, make a list or
return to the assistant assessor of the dis
trict of the gross amount of such sales male
as aforesaid, with the amount of duty
which has accrued or should accrue
thereon, which list shall have annexed
thereto a declaration, under oath or af
firmation, in form or manner as
may be prescribed by the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue, that the same is true and
correct, and shall at the same time as afore
said pay to the collector or deputy collector
the amount of duty or tax thereupon as
aforesaid and in default thereof shall be
subject to and pay a penalty of t5OO. In all
cases of delinquency in making said list or
payment, the assessment and collection
shall,be made in tke manner prescribed in
The general provisions of this act; Provided,
That no duty shall be levied under the pro
visions of this section upon any sales by or
for judicial or executive officers, making
auction sales by virtue of a judgment or de
cree of any court, nor to public sales made
by guardians, executors or administrators."
Mr. Fessenden moved to amend the above
amendment by striking out all after the
words "including all sales" down to the
proviso. The amendment was agreed to,
and the amendment, as amended, was
adopted.
The amendment of the Finance Com
mittee authorizing railroad and steamboat
companies to add the tax imposed upon
- them to their rates of fare and freight, was
adopted.
The Committee on Finance recommended
the following amendment to the section of
the House bill providing for a tax on bank
circulations and deposits:
"Provided further, That whenever any
State bank or banking association has bum
converted into a national banking associa
tion, or has ceased to do its usual banking
business, including the making of loans and
the receiving of deposits, there shall be as
sessed and collected in addition to the taxes
already imposed, a tax of one-fortieth of
one per centum each month upon the
average amount of the circulation out
standing of any such State bank or State
banking association.
The amendment of the Committee was
agreed to.
The Senate agreed to the recommendation
of the House Committee, to strike out all
in the House bill relating to incomes, ex
emptions, appeals, penalties, etc., and in
nen in lieu thereof the following: "That
section 116 of the act now in force be amend
ed by inserting after the words `on the ex
cess over $5,000,' the following: and a like
tax shall be levied, collected and paid an
nually, upon the gains, profits and income
of every: business ,, trade or profession car
ried on in the United States by persons re
siding within the United States not citizens
thereof.'"
Mr. Fessenden explained that the income
for the present year had already been as
sessed, and it was thought best to leave what
the House proposed to do to be done by the
next Congress.
Pending the reading of the bill, page 157
out .of 240 having been reached, the Senate
adjourned.
Hollaß.—Mr. Baldwin rose to a personal
explanation, and said that he had ascer
tained on looking over Executive document
No. 125, showing the amount of mileage
paid to members of the last Congress, that
he was charged with $BO more than he had
actually received, being for two hundred
miles of travel more.than he had claimed.
It was correct on the books of the Sergeant
at-Arms. He found that a similar error
was made with other gentlemen, and he
therefore asked leave to offer the following:
_Resolved, That the Committee on Appro
priations be directed to investigate and re
port in reference to the errors in Executive
document number 125, and also to consider
the expediency of a revision of the existing
law in reference to mileage, so as to make
the payment of mileage more equal, and
more accordant with actual cost of travel to
and from the National capital at the present
time.
There being no objection, the resolution
was offered and agreed to.
,Mr. Paine; from the Committee on Bien
, Eons, ma - de a report in the contested elec
' tziori,case of Fuller against Dawson, from
the Tiventy-first Congressional District of
etßennsYlvania, and stated that he would call
it u p next week.
The report closes with a resolution that
Mr. Dawson is entitled to retain his seat.
The House resumed, in the morning hour,
• the consideration of the bill reported yester
day by Mr. Loan, from the Committee on 1
the Pacific, Railroad, granting lands to
Kansas to aid in the construction of the
Northern Railroad and Telegraph Line.
On motion of Mr. Julian, it was amended
by reducing ten sections of land to five
sections, and as so amended it was passed.
The morning hour having expired, Mr.
Dawes (Mass.) offered a resolution, which
was adopted, directing the Sergeant-at-
Arms to pay to Daniel W. Goodi,who was
electeff a member of the Thirty-ninth Con
gress from the Sixth District of Massachu
setts, his salary from March 4, 1865, to the
date of his resignation as a member.
The House proceeded to the consideration
of the Army bill, beginning at the twenty
seventh section.
On motion of Mr. Schenck, that section
was amended by a substitute, as follows:
SECTION 27. In all staff corps, and among
the officers of the line above the grade of
captain, one-third of the promotions may
be made on the ground of merit alone, and
without regard to seniority•in the date of
appointment or commission.
On motion of Mr. Wilson (Iowa), the fol
lowing proviso was added to the twenty
seventh section : Provided. That in apply
ing the rule of promotion, no distinction
snail be made between officers of regiments
amposed of colored men W and those com
posed of white men, but the promotion shall
be by interchange equally open to all said
officers.
The twenty-eighth section was passed
over informally, in order to have a substi
tute for it prepared, and subsequently - the
following was agreed tows a substitute :
SEO. 28. That whenever an - officer of the
staff or of the line shall be deemed better
fitted for or likely to be more efficient in
the performance of his duties in some other
corps or arm of the military service than the
1)11 . 113111er corps or arm in which he may be,
the President is authorized to transfer him
to some other staff, corps or arm of the
military service; but an officer, on being so
transferred, shall only take such rank in
the staff or corps in which he is placed as
he held by commission in the staff or line
before his transfer.
Very few, and those immaterial, amend
ments were made to the suoceding sections
of the bill, which were agreed to.
On motion of Mr. Blaine the following
was added as a new section to come in after
SEC. 39. That in all cases where a volun
teer officer has been appointed in the regu
lar army to the same rank or grade Which
he may have held in thevolunteer forces, or
to any lower rank or grade, his name shall
be borne on the army register, with the date
of his volunteer appointment, and he shall
take rank as with continuous services from
such date.
On motion of Mr. Paine, the following was
added as a new section, to come in after
Sc.E 43. That one chaplain may be ap

ties shall include the instruction of the en

was added as a new section: That chap

which was adopted, instructing the Commit
tee on Banking and Currency to inquire
into the ea pediency of repealing such laws
as authorize the depositing of money with
the Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer of the
United States, and the payment of interest
thereon by the Government.
Mr. Con kling presented a - petition from
William Wilkinson, and a large number of
citizens of Buffalo, representing that by the
action of the officers of the United States,
and without authority of law, the port of
Buffalo has been virtually closed, and com
munication by public conveyances and tel
egraph has been interfered with. The peti
tion prays that a:committee be sent to Buf
falo to investigate the matter and recom
mend action to Congress. Referred to the
Committee on Foreign Affairs.

distributed among five classes ; instead of
among four, as at present. The fifth class
clerks to have a salary of $2,240.
At a quarter to four the House adjourned.
Prussian Salt.
The history of mining enterprise is filled
with examples of the great influence which
a single undertaking will sometimes exert
upon the business of a country. A salt
mine which was opened a few years since
near Magdeburg, by the Prussian Govern
ment is a case in point, and is one of pecu
liar interest because of its extreme simpli
city. Some twelve or fifteen years ago
Prussia consumed, for culinary purposes
alone, 257,000,000 pounds of salt per annum,
the proportion being about fifteen pounds
for each and every inhabitant of l 'tlie king
dom; a proportion, by the way, which;•in
keeping with the lethargic spirit of the
country, had remained fixed and unvary
ing during a quarter of a century. The
amount above mentioned was employed
solely for household purposes, for: the very
i
considerable quantities used n agriculture
and by various manufacturing estab
lishments were not taken into account.
The amount of salt produced by Prussia
at the sana9 time, at the various saline
springs of the country, was only 214,000,000
•pounds, or, roughly estimated, scarcely
seventy-five percent. of the quantity con
sumed within the kingdom. More than
50,000,000 pounds of salt had, therefore, to be
importea into Prussia every year. It was
in the hope of doing away with this condi
tion of thing that the Government proceeded
to excavate the mine in question. -To what
extent this hope has been realized may be
inferred from the following facts : The salt
was reached about ten years since and has
been actively worked ever since. It may,
therefore be safely assumed that the new
order of things has by this time arrived at a
condition of tolerably stable equilibrium.
There is, at the same time, no evidence
that the other works at the old salt springs
have been given up. According to offi
cial statements there was sold from the
Single mine here in question, in the - year
1862, 101,000,000 pounds of salt; in 1863, 152,-
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN ; PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, JUNE
000,000'pounds; and in' 1864, 201,04000
pounds. In 1865 the quantity sold appears
to have been less, though no official state
ment of it has as yet come to hand.. Some
observers estimate the amount as low as
166,000,000 pounds. However this may be,
it will be seen at once that so far from im
porting salt, Prussia is now,in a position to
export this commodity. Large quantities
of it are, in fact now. exported, _chiefly to the
sthaller German States, to Holland, and to
Holstein. At one time it was even antici
pated that the Prussian salt would be able
to gain a foothold_Au thQ,Englialt market,
but the hope has not yet bees realize& The
cost of mining the salt' is very small; and it
is cheaply transported to the ocean, by
water, by way of the river Elbe.
A FAST FuNERAL.—The people of Hol
land, Western Massachusetts; were 'not a
little suryrised the other day to see the Sex
ton driving into town a brisk pace, in a
light trotting skeleton buggy, with a coffin
strapped to the axle, and a funeral proces
sion coming up in the rear as fast as possi
ble. Indeed, we are living in a fast 'age
when people are carried to the grave at the
rate of ten miles an hour.
