IRENE Radicals voted together against the
Bingham and Sherman bills to admit Ala

A New WAY TO OBTAIN THE WH1skET
TAx.-Within the last few days number
of capitalists from New York, Philadel-
phia, and other leading cities in the Union,
have gathered here to discuss the great
question of whiskey, which seems to have
completely dethroned cotton, and to have
been crowned king by unanimous consent.
These capitalists, as the result Of their
discussions, have hit upon q new plan by
which they claim that they will be able, if
allowed fair opportunity, to turn into the
United States Treasury S60,000,000 year
from the manufacture Of whiskey. Their
plan is this: They propose to ask the Co.
yernment to abolish the present system OF
taxing whiskey, with its abominable train
of frauds, populations, and official debase-
ment, and to turn over the business alto
gether to the hands Of an organized COM
pany of capitalists, who will bind them
selves to pay annually into the Treasury
$50 ,eo0,G00. They have made the question
matter Of arithmetic, and have come to
the conclusion that they can carry out their
promise to the Government, and still real
ize handsome profit Of fifty per cent.
themselves. The fact is, that our internal
revenue officials, with all their meters,
guards, checks, spies, &C., have not been
able to turn into the Treasury more than
thirty millions year from the tax on %his-
key. Here is o proposal to double this
amount right off, and the men who are said
TO be in this plan (whose names are not
KNOWN are represented as responsible par
ties, who can cover their promises with
hard cash at the very start as an earnest of
their sincere intentions and faith in the
project they propose. The idea is new in
this country, but was tried before in Eu-
rope-Russia and France, believe-and
worked very satisfactorily. The plan, in
plain words, is simply to "farm out" the
whiskey tax as boss printer would
ssfarm " a job in printing office. The
plan is known to but few people here as
yet, and it will be kept quiet for awhile
until all the details are matured. 1t may
turn up in Congress in the course of few
weeks.-Wa Washington Correspondent Of the
Mem York Herald.
