1NJcHcTIoNs IN REVENUE CAsRs.-Beck and
bacnman, OF Baltimore, filed a bill in the
United States District Court to enioin the
Collector of Internal Revenue from the coiIec
ton of taxes assessed on tobacco man ufactured
by them.
The case was argued on the 9TH instant, and
the court dissolved the Injunction. Judge
Giles refused to hear the district attorney in
reply TO plaintiffs counsel, and took the broad
ground that the Government, in a time like
this, must not be embarrassed by legal diff.
culties thrown in its way by injunctions;
that an Injunction in one case wouIo lead to
the like Interference In all. and thus the wheels
OF the Government might be stopped.
A similar decision was made recently by
Judge Field, Of the U. 8. District Court OF
New Jersey, in case in which the New Jer-
sey Arms and Ordnance Company had filed a
bill to enjoin the collection Of taxes assessed
by the internal revenue assessor The Judge
dissolved the preliminary Injunction, and In
his remarks took the ground distinctly that
he would not interfere by injunction in such
cases.

Hon. Thomas Holiday Hicks, u S. Senator,
and formerly Governor OF Maryland, died at
2 O'Clock this morning, at the Metropolitan
Hotel. He had been suffering from Ill health
for some time, until Friday morning when

left side. His mental faculties, however
seemed to remain unimpaired until IL O'Clock
last evening. During his consciousness It was
communicated to him that nothing more could
be done for him, and in answer to the inquiries
Of his pastor, he expressed himself as being
happy in the consultations OF religion, and pre-.
pared for dissolution.
His family are expected to arrive this eve.
ming or tomorrow morning.
Hon Reverdy Johnson aud Representative

this morning, and the Senate will make the
necessary arrangements for the funeral.
The remains are being embalmed, and will
