NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-the Herald =
Washington special says: The Treas
ury Department officials are on the
track of some great frauds in whisky
in New York and elsewhere, and
special agents have been quietly dis
patched TO work up the evidence. Great
secrecy Is observed, but there j. reason
to believe thst two important frauds
have been perfeged since the new reg
ulstiOns went into effect, aud that they
will soon receive attention from the Of
IDEALS One of these two were ship
ments from the West to New York OF
spirits OF much higher proof than are
called for in the permits and bills OF
lading, the other for the Collector To
conceal and ultimately destroy the
bonds given for transportation from
one district to the other. Some OF the
largest manipulations In both sections
Of the country have been quietly watch
ed for few weeks past, and trap pre-
pared for them, into which they have
already fallen.
A delegation of hungry whisky men
il here urging the removal of Commits
sioner Rollins, on the ground OF cor
ruptiOn, and IL is simply pseposterous
for such charges to be made against a
man, OF whom Whatever may be
thought Of his politics or character, not
a word can be said on the score OF per
sonal integrity.
one OF the important features OF the
Treasury Investigation by the Re
trenchment Committee, will be that
looking into the alleged over issue OF
"a Al Thara has hafl
a large excess OF the legitimate issue OF
the currency. or else thousands Of dol
lars ofthe counterfeit stuff are In circu-
latiOn.
The Herald says: The Barnum in
vestigating committee after sitting three
days, at Falls Village, has again adj
iourned TO future day, not yet decid-
ed upon. The evidence thus far, while
IL shows clearly that money was lavish
liz spent by both sides, does not estab-
fish directly the charge OF buying
votes made against W. III. Barnum,
while on the other hand II has been
sworn 10 by number OF witnesses
that z. T. Barnum's Agents openly
bought or attempted 10 buy votes.
The Herald's special says: The Con-
gressional Committee on Southern
Railroads have completed their exami'
nations In Richmond, and leave to-day
for Charleston.
The Times special says: The report
the Judiciary Committee had finally
agreed to report In favor OF lmpeach %
ment, Is not true. They have had no
meeting on the subject.
A full investigation Of the riot In Bal
timore, Thursday night, will show that
the colored men merely acted in self
defense. They were stoned, when they
returned the assault with shots, one OF
which proved fatal.
The Tribune says: Judge Lawrence OF
the Judiciary committee AYERS the state
ment that the Judiciary committee are
in favor of Impeachment is true.
The Democrats have sent for McClel-
Ian to return TO this country, and will
nominate him for President, with
another ex-military man for Vice
President.
A Richmond letter says: Gen. Soho
field has returned from Washington,
lie saws that there will be no changes
made la the Cabinet for some time, II
at all. The President has no present
intention in that direction, nor will
there be- any alteration in the manner
Of Southern Reconstruction.
The General il anxions that the Con
yention should be called, and regrets
that so many OF the whites are dispos-
ed 10 oppose IL. He says they Will be-
mistaken II they think their Northern
friends will sustain them In such n
course. The Convention Is a fixed fact,
and that IL Is also certain that the Con-
slitutiou that will be framed by IL, will
be adopted by the people aud approved
by Congress, aud Nirginie, before the 4th
Of March, will he in the Union, rejOic-
ing with her younger sister, Tennes-
see.
The Republicans OF Brooklyn last
night nominated Archibald NJ. Bliss,
