PITHoLE, Pa, Nov. 17--Within the
past few days the Government officials
have brought TO light facts which show
the most extensive frauds against the
Internal Revenue Department. Yes
terday the officers seized wells No. AZ,
"a and rs, three of the largest on the
Thomas Holmdon farm. The Govern
ment claims amount to $148, 900, of
which SSS, 1000 is owned by the United
States petroleum company, and about
$685. by a large operator here, who, it
is alleged, last night made all his in
terest over to a second party.
The Government has notified the
owners of the working interest in the
wells not to allow any more oil to the
United States company until the claim
is paid.
There is much excitement here on
the subject, and it is feared the bottom
has not been reached.

SOME recent English statistics are in
structive to the friends of temperance.
In the last twelve years the cOnsump-
ton of beer and wine has increased
more rapidly than in proportion to the
population, while the consumption of
distilled spirits has largely fallen off,
showing that the slightly exhilarating
liquors are superseding those more de-
cidedIy intoxicating. And the change
is more perceptible in the improvement
of the public morals, and the decrease
in drunkenness. Even in Ireland, beer
is supplanting the terrible whisky and
shindies and broken heads are getting
to be strangely uncommon.

The New York Commercial calls at
tention to certain sentiments uttered by
Gen. Logan, the newly appointed Min
lister to the Mexican Republic, as indi-
eating the policy he is likely to pursue.
In the public reception accorded to our
Generals at Cooper Institute on the 9TH
of June, General Logan said:
1.-THE little gentleman in Mexico
ought to be notified some morning very
early, just before breakfast, that it will
be equally as pleasant to the people of
the United States if he would retire a
little further than that country. But
in speaking of Mexico, l do not want
you to understand that it is my desire
in any way to encourage what is known
here as an emigrant society to Mexico.
If we in the United States do not want
Maximillian to remain i'll Mexico, in
Gods name let us have nerve andman-
illness to tay, Sir, you have got to get
out of here"
Again, in his Brooklyn speech, on
the Sd inst, Gen. Logan said if he were
President, he "would order the French
out of Mexico in hurry, and he be-
lieved they would go.n

The New York HeTdld says: 1.-The
order of General Mcdowell, command
ing the Department of California, for
bidding the transportation of arms a
cross our frontiers into Mexico, has caus-
ed much dissatisfaction among the
friends Of the Mexican Republic in our
Pacific States, and has led to cOrreSpOn-
dence between the General and Mr..
GOdoy, President JuareZ's Consul in
San Francisco. The Consul prays for
a withdrawal of the order, maintain
ing that it must work entirely in favor
Of the imperialists, as they hold all the
Pacific seaports and as shipments of
arms by sea are not forbidden. Gener-
al Mcdowell, in his reply, states that
the shipments by sea as well as by land
are intended by his order to be pr0hib-
tied, and that instructions to this effect
have been given by him to the San
Francisco Collector. He also regrets
that his official duties require him to
pursue a course which is thought by
the Consul to be inimical to the repub-
lican cause in Mexico, which he says
has his warmest Sympathies, and he
adds that it is with pain he replies that
he cannot withdraw the order alluded
