GENERAL ORDERS,
| No. 25.
1t appears from sundry petitions and official
representations that the present scanty supply of
| food in the Caronas is seriously diminished by
the large quantity of grain consumed in numerous
distileries, put up and worked in defiance of the
revenue laws of the United States; it is represen
| ted that few none of the requirements of law
are observed in any of these establishments that
the officers of the internal revenue service While
endeavorDg to assess and collect the whiskey tax
are frequently treated with disrespcct and some
times menaced with violence; and that when
offenders are prosecuted in the civil courts and
violations of the internal revenue laws indspua-
bly, proved jurics fail to convict the parties it is
further shown that this unlawful traffic makes
food dearcr in places where large numbers are de-
pending upon public and private bounty; that
the Government is, BESIDES defrauded of a large
amount of revenue; that the authority of its civil
officers is brought into contempt; and further
more, that the mischief complained of tends 10
increase poverty, disorder and crime; therefore,
in the exercise of the authority vested in the
Commanding General it is ordered that,
l. The distillation or manufacture of whiskey
or other spirits from grain is prohibited in this
Military District. Any person so engaged or en-
ployed will be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor.
The possession of still or other apparatus for
this purpose Will be considered presumptIve evil
dence OF violation of the revenue laws and the
party or parties using the same, or on whose
premises, or in whose possession the same may be
Ioulu, Will drreSlcu ana 10 Trial before
military tribunal composed of the Commanding
officer OF the Post and two officers of the army
next in rank duty within the territorial limits
of the Post. If the exigencies of the service do
not permit the detail of other officers, that fact
will be duly certified and the Post Commander
will hear and determine the case.
II. The penalties, punshments and forfeitures
prescribed by the several acts OF Congress for dis
tilling or manufacturing whiskey or other spirits
in violation of the revenue laws, will be imposed
and executed by the military tribunals hereby au-
thorized.
III. No sentence extending to Imprisonment,
forfeiture of stills, liquor other property, or
the imposition of fine or other penalty will be
carried into effect until reported to these Head
quarters and approved by the Commanding Gen
eral.
". All troops of the United States, Mags-
trates, Sheritfs, Constables, Police and Others in
authority required, and all citizens are solic-
tied, to be vigilant in detecting and prompt in
giving information of the violation of these
ders. Commanding officers will be held respon-
sible for their enforcement.

Reduction Of Exports.

We see by our Washington correspondence
that the domestic Exports Of the United States
for the fiscal year ending July, 1867, to oil
countries, not reckoning the exports which
were under half million dollars in value to
any country, were about forty millions less
than in 1860, the year before the war. The
amount is reckoned in specie, and was for
1867 over three hundred and thirty-four mil
lions, against three hundred and seventy-three
millions in 1860. This falling off of forty mil
lions is TO be attributed In q great measure,
undoubtedly, to the decline Of Southern pro-
ducts. The war and the destructive measures
Of Congress have psralyzed tho industry Of the
South, although the pressing necessities Of the
Southern people forced them to make extraor-
binary efforts to raise crops last year. Next
year we may expect, under the same ruinous
policy Of Africanizing the South, q still greater
falling of in cotton and other staple products.
The balance Of foreign trade, as conse-
quence, will be heavier against us, and there
will be greater drain of the precious metals
Yet, strange to say, the very men who are
running the South by their radical policy cry
out for immediate specie payments They
force away the gold to pay balances abroad,
which would help US to approach specie
basis, by making the country .unproductve,
at the same time they clamor for immediate
resumption. Such stupidity is almost incredi-
BILE. To make the country prosperous, TO
reach specie payments, and to prevent the
drain of the precious metals, we must restore
the South under more liberal policy than Is
now being followed, and increase its valuable
staple produc!iicc..,,.
