REGULATIONS.
That as no good reason is apparent to them for
changing the size and weight of barrels of Tur-
pcntlne, and it would perhaps be productive OF In
convenience to the makers, it will be purchased as
heretofore the gross weight ofthe barrel to be 800
lbs or $50 lbs nett the turpentine to be delivered
the yard for inspection at the expense OF The sell
Ter; and as there has been in many cases, unjust
inequality, in fixing upou the amount of Extra,
and whereas the law prescribes what the order of
turpentne shall he, when exposed for sale, with
out prescribing any remedy in case it is not in
said order, we therefore agree that hereafter a de-
duction shall be made under the denomination of
extra cooperage follows; For scuttling, packing,
&c, cent per barrel, for the first two hoops
that may be lacking short of twelve as prescribed
by law, one cent EACH and for each hoop less than
ten that may be short, two cents each, also what
other labor may be necessary to put 1t IN the Or
der the law prescribes to be adjudged by the In
spectors together with the usual deduions for I'M
understandable barrels exceeding the number
taken to pack. Purchases made at the RsiI
Road Depot will be subject to a deduction
of two cents per bbl drayage, thereby pla-
cling the sellers per Rail Road on footing
with those by water. These regulations to apply
to Tar only so far as regards expense of rolling,
draying and inspection. The custom adopted in
reference to the condition of the barrels it is sup
posed must be free from all objection, as turpen-
tine put up in perfect order will only be subject to
deduction of one cent per Dbl. instead of the for
mer rates of extra.
We also agree that in future we shall refuse
to compromise for fraudulent mixture hereto
fore, that we deem chips, straw, billets of wood,
limbs, Dirt &C., as fraudulent mixture, and that
we shall abide by the strict letter of the law III all
such cases. And whereas it appears that the In
spectors do not consider themselves authorized to
make bills otherwise than prescribed by law
that we will in all cases, purchase by the Dbl, OF
800 lbs and allow the Inspector to make his bill
the law directs $50 lbs but that there shall be de-
