In this imp0-t ant report Of Commissioner
Rollins, which We lay sefore our readers this
morning, will be found facs and figures in
which they are all directly interested, His
exposition of the numerous, various and ex-
tensivc whIskey frauds, whereby the Treasury
and honest distillers and dealers and tax
payers have all been cheated while fraudulent
operators have been enriched, are exceedingly
interesting. His recommendations in the way
Of amendments Of these Revenue laws are also
entitled to the serious and speedy considera-
ton OF Congress PROFESSIONALLY, as they
stand, these laws operate only to the advan-
tage Of dishonest men and the decentralization
Of many honest ones, and to the continual en-
largement Of the appalling volume Of frauds
and corruptions and II not checked they will
rapidly bring our whole internal revenue sys-
tenn into public contemps and reduce the
Treasury TO bankruptcy and our national
finances TO q disastrous collapse.
