TREASURY DEPARTNENr.0
OFFICE OF REvENuE,
WAsHINGTON, May 10, 1867.
{. J MceraartyI Esq Collector, Second Dis
Sir: . . = . Your attention il ais,
especially called TO the enforcement 0
the regulations concerning the t~ranspOT.
tation and storage of spirits in bond
The regulations published in series 2
No. 8, on page 8, provides tha6 stilleL
spirits may be transported from the dis
tillery to any general bonded warehous,
class B, or from the bonded warehouse
in which they are first deposited 10 any
other bonded warehouse class b.
For the purpose of facilitating trade,
this regulation was so constructed as to
allow any number Of removals in bond.
1t was not anticipated that this privi-
lege would be abused to the detrimeuI oil
the government, but experience has
demonstrated hat it has not only opera
ted to delay the payment of taxes on
spirits, but has been p~rOstituted to the
preparation of enormous frauds. It is
therefore deemed absolutely necessary,
in order to protect the public interests,
to return to a strict and literal eoustruc-
ton of the law OF 1866, and the afore-
said regulations.
Hereafter, therefore, 40 withdrawal OF
Spirits from q general bonded warehouse
will be allowed for transportation in
bond, except to the Pacific states; the
only Withdrawals allowed being for ex-
portation, for rehabilitation or rectiica-
ton, or upon payment of tax. Where q
general bonded warehouse is substituted
for a distillery warehouse, in accordance
with the provisions of the recent statute.

From the monthly report of the direc-
tor of the bureau of statistics, W e learn
that the exports from the United States
in the first quarter of the present year,
we're sbOut one hundred and thirty-three
millions Of dollars worth, and that of this
amount the southern states furnished
niuety-two millions. This is a surprising
record, for it shows that these states con-
tributed 20 per cent. of tie whole of our
exports for the time mentioned. Upon
the amount of Our exports depend, il
must be recollected, the amount of our
customs revenues, and in this statement
we see the proportion which the industry
of these states pays to the revenue. It
has been too much the habit at the north
10 depreciate the value and Importance
Of that industry. While it ought to be
fostered-while every means should be
taken to develope and increase 1.-THE
ultra radical policy tends directly to its
disbursement and annihiiatiop.
