THE TAX ON LIoUoRs-On Friday the
Senate rejected the proposed tax upon Ii
quors now in store-the vote being IA to 49,
1t looks, therefore, as if the spectators, and
not the Treasury, are to pocket the money
which, in the shape of increased value pro-
duced by prospective taxation, rightful!y be-
longs tnthe latter. But the vote in the House
was strong the ether way, and we trust will
be adhered to. If the Senate will not re-
cede wholly, a compromise may be agreed
on which shall save some part of the tax.

Enlistments in Old Regiments for the
Unexpired Term Of Service.

| From the Indiana Journal, June 81, 1864.
Frequent inqniry has been made of us
by correspondence in the army, as we'll as
by citizens at home, respecting the term Of
service for which recruits would be held
who volunteered into OH regiments with
the understanding that they were to serve
only for and during the "unexpired term"
of their respective regiments. We have
repeatedly stated in our columns that the
military authorities at Washington had
refused to recognize enlistments Unto old
three years. regiments for less period
than the full term of three years. 1t is
true that recruiting officers. in their zeal
to fill up the ranks of their companies.
made representations to recruits that they
would be held only for the balance of the
term of service of the particular regiment
or battery for which they were recruited,
but these representations, as we have been
informed from official sources. were
unauthorized. However this may be, it is
very certain that a large number of
recruits were obtained under the impres.
sion that when the old regiments and
batteries to which they were attached,
"CiC inustciSu out, tuoy VOuiu hlhO w
discharged from the service. The plan OF
re-enlistisg troops as veterans. at the time
of which we speak. had not been adopted.
anil it seemed to be but reasonable that all
the men composing regiment or battery
should be relieved frem duty at the same
time. The understanding was doubtless
strengthened by the fact that recruits were
not accepted for the general service. bnt
in al cases for particular organizations.
Besides, the belief was very general that
the war would close sometime during the
present year, and. inasmuch as most of
our old regiments and batteries would be
discharged within that time. the service OF
the recruits would not be longer needed or
required. These impressions were. with
fout doubt. made upon the minds of
recruits by the recruiting officers. and
assentei to by the United States military
officers, by whom the recruiting service
was supervised. and we think, under the
circumstances, it would be inst and fair

all the advantages we have gained over
them, and the near prospect of peace by
scattering or capturing their armies. give
up the contest. acknowledge their ir le-
pende1ce. and thus admit the right of Sc
cession on the part of State whenever
it chooses? Would this bring MS peace?
We doubt it. How long would it be be-
fore the question of annexation to the
Confederacy of the North western States
would be sprung? And how long would
it be before the attempt would be made in
Indiana by Southern sympathisers to take
the State out OF the Unio2 by some means
