the witnesses. a rectifier, the lowest
nrice he mas maid for whisky was 81 80
nor gallon. and the business of the firm
amounted to over five millions of dol
lars year.
one enterprising detective actually
went to Chicago, traced the gram snip
ned to New York, thence to the dlstll-
ieries who purchased it, and by calcu-
lating the number of gallons OF WHISKY
made from bu> hel of grain, ana com
pairing the result with the returns inaue,
came to the conclus iOn that an immense
amount of fraud was being perpetrated.
The same party, by advertising IN tne
Herald to the effect 'hat he had Stills
that would manufacture four gallons
to a bushal, and that he could sell them
in any number and any size, ascer-
tanned from the applications he received
and by other means that there must
be ut least four thousand diStilleries in
New York City; and De gives II as his
opinion that the Government does not
get more than two per cent. OF all the
whisky manufactured in that city. on
being asked if he knew of any cases OF
Government inspectors or revenue oih-
GERS who have suddenly become
wealthy since their appointment to
office, he replied that he did, but that
it would touch great many good
friends of his own.
1t is the DelleI OF the COuLllllee tnal
as much whisky is now made in the
country as was made in 1860, if not
more, but that the tax can never be
collected on it until proper legislation
is secured. 1t is claimed that the sys-
tenn of inspectors in distilleries is to-
tai failure. The distillers and others
have one hundred and fifty millions OF
tax withheld, as bribing fund, against
the Governments thirty millions tax
paid. The advantage of the former is,
,of course, overwhelming. The case is
a perfectly clear one, to any one con-
versant with the subject.
The committee recommend abolish
ing totally the present system, as be-
ing most perAicious of the country
and either taxing every distillery FORTS
total capacity of production of spirits
per diem of twenty-four hours, OF
using some automatic construction
which will urgently indicate the true
quantity OF spirits produced, and
which cannot possibly be tempered
with either by the distiller or any 9th
erperson.

THE last New York Citizen contains
letter signed with Colonel Halpine's
initials, giving the details of a CONVEX
sation with the President upon polit-
ical matters. Nothing new is given in
the letter, if we except a paragraph in
which the reconstruction bill is opposed
on grounds which Mr.. Johnson's va
rious messages and speeches have made
rather trite. We make the following
extract, however, on the politicians
cardinal point, consistency
"As for myself, my convictions in
politics are things that cannot change
to suit the expediencieS of this or any
other moment. They have grown with
my growth, they have strengthened
with my strength, and they are to me
only less sacred, and as much to be
preserved, as my religious faith. At
tempts are made to make il appear that
my words at different times have been
inconsistent; but were not the circum-
stances inconsistent. under which the
apparently contradictory words were
spoken or opinions given. During the
high storm of rebellion, or in the first
heat OF its subsistence, words were prop
er to be said which would be utterly
improper in time of peace. We put a
broken limb in splints to hold it quiet,
whether the patient will or no; but to
insist on holding the splints there when
the limb is restored, or when a further
examination shall have proved that
the wounds. though deep were only
i nesh wounds, leaving the bones unin-
1ured-this would not be wise surgery,
put cruelty; not craftsmanship, but bar
oarons usurpation."
ihis seems to resolve the whole mat
Ter into question OF fact, whether the

wounds are merely f1esh-wounds. I'm.

OF the nation are compelled by the

that most of our legislation will ad.

DOUBT II has however been made clear
by the mass of business acted upon this
winter, that there is too much legisla-
ton, or that the sessions of the legisla-
ture are too short to give that careful
consideration to measures which the
public interest requires, and their i'm
portance demands; but this is danger
more OF the future than the present.
The amount of legislation sought for

is very strong proof that moniel men
of other States, are DESTROYS of invest
ing their means in our midst, and in
doing so, to enable us to give shape and
value to the hidden treasures of our
State, which as yet remain undevelop-
ed, and therefore useless to us.
1t cannot be said of US that in the
midst of so much business crowded in
to our brief session, that the interests of
education have been overlooked: it il
believed that the several meas
ures passed upon in rela-
ton to that matter, will contribute
much toward perfecting a. thorough
and efficient system of free school in
struction for the hitherto neglected
children of our State. Many measures
OF local character have been also be-
fore Us, and most of them have passed
into laws, and will, no doubt, be of ad-
vantage to the people OF the localities
to which they apply. It is pleasant
reflection, that, although there have
been wide differences of opinion among
members of this Senate, and sometime
considerable warmth of feeling in sI-
pressing them, still we shall separate
with nothing but kindness in our heart
towards each other, and the best wishes
for each others welfare IN the future

The SYNOD of Alabama.

The Synod of Alabama has just closed its
sessions in Mobile. The attendance was not
large-about forty ministers and ruling elders
being present during the meeting. We have
never seen more harmony of feeling or more
unity of opinion in any deliberative assembly.
Nearly one whole day was taken up with the
interchange of views and feelings on the sub
ject of "giving of our substance to the Lord. F"
The discussion was conference rather than a
debate. The action of the body was unani-
nous. The propriety and expediency, if not
the imperative duty of making ,oeekiy contri-
buttons to the cause of Christ were earnestly
insisted on by the speakers, and urged upon
the churches by the formal action Of the
Synod.
The Rev. Dr. John B. Adger Professor in
the Theological Seminary at Columbia, 5. T.,
was present during the sessions of the Synod,
end contributed much to the interest and en-
joyment of the meeting He made an inter-
esting address on the subject Of the Seminary,
les condition and prospects, with which all
were pleased. He merely alluded in few
brief and appropriate words to the question OF
removing the institution. The most earnest
advocate of the policy of removal could not
have objected to anything that he said. The
Synod resolved TO raise thousand dollars for
the current expenses OF the Seminary for this
year. The plan adopted was an apportion-
ment among the churches of the amount to
be raised, according to their estimated ability.
Prof. Smith, member of the Synod, pre-
sented the interests Of Ogetho pc University,
and similar plan was adopted to raise the
salary of the Alabama Professor.
There was missionary meeting Saturday
night, at which addresses were made by DIR.
Adger, who was once missionary to the Ar
menians OF Turkey, and by Rev. w. q. EN-
erson, recently from Brazil.
