THE REVENUE FROM THE INTERNAL TAX. 20
Il is TOO early yet to form Trustworthy estimate
Of the probable revenue Of the Government iron
internal taxes. But it is already eyden, that the
trainers of the Tax law, in judging that the annual
receipts under it would not be more than $50 900 06
went far below the truth. All the indications which
reach the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, all
the data received at his Office go to show that the
total annual amount will be nearer $3.50 600 900 than
$50 900, 900. In ono district in New York, where
tie Collector thought 5000 licenses would be pece,-
ssry, 5000 are required.
