The Whisky Tax.

The dispatches inform us that on Tuesday
Mr.. Schenck from the Ways and Means COM
mittee in Congress, reported his new tax bill,
by which he proposes to brinypthe revenue up
to solvent basis, "f'ar the heavy reduction by
removing the tax from the Eastern manufactr-
rers The promise was, that this increase
should be brought about by reduction of the
tax on whisky to such scale that it could be
collccted-say so cts to $1O0 a gallon. 1t is
conceded on all hands that the manufacture
Of whisky in this country is not less than
15O,000,000 gallons y year. At $l.00 gallon
it was believed 800, 000, 900 tax could be col.
lected: or at so cts, 10000 900, while at
81 gallon it is well known less than $40, 0O0,-
600 are collected. Mr. Schenck, however, re-
fuses to touch the whisky tax, whence the
robbery. of the government by the whisky
ring at the rate of 5000, 100000 year is to be
continued. The inference is plain as day,
that the sole purpose of congress in permit
ting continuance OF this enormous steal is to
get hold of the heaviest part Of the $500, 0O0,-
900 for campaign fund. 1t is notorious
that some $5,OO0,O00 were squeezed out of the
whisky ring to carry New Hampshire alone.
To further the same kind Of operations all
over the Union is the object of the bill of Mr..
Schenck.

GIN SHERMAN FOR PREsIDENT-Ihe Blu
reau County Democrat comes out with
double loaded leader urging the nomination
of Gen. Sherman for the Presidency, and calls
upon the democracy everywhere to hold
meetings, SC. There has been some talk
among quite number of prominent Demo-
Gratis throughout this county about calling y
grand Sherman mass meeting, but we believe
no actual steps have yet been taken in the
matter. Gen. Sherman certainly would make
an excellent candidate, and as against Grant,
would beat him as signally as he was always
his superior as u soldier.

The Recent Storms.

About the LIST of the present month com
mcnced a series Of storms, which seem to have
been quite general throughout Illinois, Indi-
ana, Iowa and Missouri, and up to the pres
ent writing (May 15th) can hardly be said to
have ceased. In this immediate vicinity, the
"spell" has been notable chiefly for the unu-
sual rain fall, although few cases of damage
by lightning have been noted but in many
other localities there have been terrible whirl-
winds, tornadoes and floods, causing the des-
truction Of life MS well as of immense property.
Thus from Iowa, which seems to be the west
ern limit of the afflicted region, we have some
fearful accounts.
The region Immediately west of Muscantine
was visited bya tornado on the afternoon of
May 3d. Many houses were lifted up bodily
and carried off. Farmers had not only all
their buildings destroyed, but fences, fruit
trees, &c. The wife Of Mr.. Lawler was pick
ed up bodily and let down in cherry tree.
Hail stones weighing two or three pounds fell
in abundance. Property in single township
was destroyed to the value Of $4,000
At Shanghai, Ill.,, a village west of Gales
burg, the tornado displayed some remarkable
eccentricities. 1t literally sucked the water
out Of a large pond, and carried it up into the
air, Everything in its track-houscs, fences,
trees,-werc swept away as with brush. IS
dwelling houses, IN u circuit of a mile or two,
were lifted into the air, carried Il short dis
lance, and dashed. to the ground and shivered
and three churches, III one of which were 200
worshippers, were also among the buildings
destroyed, a number OF persons being killed,
and scarcely any escaping without some
injury.
Traces of the same destructive tornado are
also noticed at Bushnell, Galesburg, Quincy,
&c. At Burlington, Iowa. over $4,000 DAM
age was done.
On Monday afternoon, another fearful gale,
accompanied by terrific thunder and light
ming and heavy fall otrain, visited nearly the
same region, as also Hancock and Fulton
counties, and indeed extending across the
whole state.
The papers from many portions of Illinois
give also accounts of heavy storms on We'd
nesday, Thursday, and indeed about every
day Of last week, as well as on Monday and
Tuesday of the present week. Streams every
where are overlooking their banks many rail
road and other bridges arc carried away, and
the whole country is SO saturated with water
that it threatens to be weeks before the farm
ers will be able to commence planting their
| corn.

Gen. Palmer on the Decline"

Gen. Palmer, the Radical nominee for Gov
ernor, is aptly called the "deelining" candidate
Since he left the army, he has declined nearly
every office from President down to constable,
though in most cases the Office was not even
remotely rendered him. He declined to be
Yates successor in the L. S. Senate when
everybody knew Yates had no thought OF re.
signing. He declined to be Cullom's success
sor in Congress, when everybody knew there
was no hope of beating Cullom in the conven-
ton at Bloomington. He has deetined to take
John A. Logan's seat in Congress several
times, and decline1 the radical nomination for
Governor in two or three letters day up to
the very time of his nomination, when, tor the
first time doubtless because it was his first
chance), he accepted "a
1t seems this penchant for declining has not
come to Gen. Palmer since his dismissal from
the army. He was quite as good a dectiner
as a soldier as when a civilian. y case i'll
point was mentioned a few months ago by
that bluff old soldier, Gen. w. T. Sherman
| III tne nclu before Atlanta, Ua., III Aug loOf
Gen. Palmer and Gen. Scoiield respectively
commanded divisions, and in the face Of the
enemy, on the eve of battle, Gen. Palmer
raised the question of rank between him and
Gen. Scofeld. Gen. Sherman. expressing his
establishment that such q question should bt
raised at such time decided promptly against
Palmer, and ordered him to occupy certain
position with his forces. Palmer was disgust
ed with the decision, declined to abide by it
detlinel to move his troops as ordered, and
during the battle, asked to be Telieced and or
lered north. Gen. Sherman was indignant
and wrote him note, saying, IF you want tt
resign wait until the battle is over and al
cge some other reason--one that will stanC
the test of time" Finding Sherman impracti
cable, Palmer applied to Gen. Thomas, witt
accepted his resignation Aug. 9Th, and thus
Gen. Palmer succeeded in declining himsel

Arkansas,
corn.

Thepassagesby the House of Representatives,
on Friday Of last week, of the bill to admit
Arkansas to representation in Congress- was
an act so outrageous as to be unusual even
among all the outrageous acts of the present
UNANIMOUSLY outrageous Congress. The bill was
forced through without permitting even so
staunch radical as Mr. Baker of Illinois to
make speech against it. 1t was pure case
of forcing through an infamy under whip and
spur, in open violation of the reconstruction
acts themselves in dozen of particulars.
Those acts say there can be no adoption of a
constitution in rebel state until the COM
handing officer in charge of tho state shall
certify to the election returns; that there can
be no legislature without such certificate no
election of L. S. Senators. Yet Gen. Gillem,
an Out-and-out radical, steadily refuses to GER
tify that the Arkansas constitution was adop-
ted on account Of the notorious frauds at the
election in that state; he steadily refuses to
recognise the legislature because there is no
constitution or law under which it was elected {;
and he refuses to recognise the Senators cleo
ted from that state, for he asserts there was no
legal body to elect them. Yet all these fatal
objections were ignored by the house and the
bill rushed through in the sole and vain hope,
that two members might be forced into the
Senate to vote in favor of President .Johnson's
impeachment
