INTERNAL REVENUE DECISIONS.

The Commissioner of Internal Revenue
has instructions to suppress the unauthor-
lied production of alcoholic spirits and va
pors. After quoting the provisions Of Sec
ton four of the act Of July 20, 1868, he
says:
"The object ofthis section was evidently
TO enable the internal revenue officer to
suppress all manner of dIstillation of spir-
its not expressly authorized by law, and to
collect the tax on all alcoholic spirits man.
ufactured. The laws existing prior to this
act were found to be inefficient, and all ef-
forts to secure a uniform enforcement
among the courts in different sections Of
the country a. to the proper construction Of
such laws. The meaning of this section,
however, cannot be matter Of doubt. Un-
der it no article into which alcoholic spir-
its or alcoholic vapors enter as an ingredi-
ent can be lawfully manufactured, except
| such spirits or alcohol have been produced
ia an authorized distillery, and have paid
| the tax. The largest class Of cases affected
by this section is that Of the manufacturers
Of vinegar by various processes Of distiila-
! ton. Many Of these manufacturers have
been honestly engaged in the business of
making vinegar, with no intention Of de-
| frauding the revenue, while many others,
under the pretense Of making vinegar alone,
have been committing aagrant and inlen-
| tional frauds. Between these two CLASSES
Congress has made no discrimination, and
the provisions Of this section were intended
70 close all such manufactures. la order
that equal and uniform Justice may be
done 10 all the persons engaged IN this bus
iness, assessors and collectors will at once
take stePs 10 advise those in their respect
! i've districts OF the terms of the law, and
the purpose Of the department to require
full compliance with its provisions and il
any Que carries on, or attempts 10 carry Oh
the business prohibited 10y this section
after being 40 advised, they will institute
proceedings under its penal provisions"
The Commissioner has decided in favor
Of the adoption Of the Tice meter for th,
prevention Of frauds in liquor distilleries
This meter was recommended by the scien
ii6c committee Of which Professor Henry
was chairman, and which met in Washing
several months ago.

THE CONFEDERATE GENERALS IN
DORSFp VY GILES COUNTY.

A large meeting Of the citizens Of Giles
county convened at the Courthouse in Pu-
laski, on Monday, the 81 inst. The meet
ing was organized by calling Col. J ames f.
Wheeler 20 the Chair. On motion, Col. J.
S. McGuiTe and Capt. Wm. &. Flournoy
were appointed Vice Presidents, and Col.
A. H. Abernathy Secretary.
Generals Brown and Gordon being called
upon, gave the result Of the interview Of
the eK-Confederate Generals Of Tenne ssee
with the Legislative Military Committee
upon the present state Of affairs, and urged
upon all good citizens the necessity Of living
in strict subordination to the laws, and of
pursuing such a course as will tend to re-
store perfect peace and harmony through
out the State.
At the conclusion Of General GOrdon's
speech, the following resolution was offered
by Capt. VIM. G. Flournoy, and unani-
mously adopted:
Whereas, We have seen the communica-
tion addressed to the Legislature of Ten
nessee by n. B. Forrest, b. F. Cheaiham,
George w. Gordon, John G. Brown and
Others, Of date the 1st of August, 1868, and
fully approving the sentiments which per
wade that paper, and being desirous of in
dorsing the pledge made by the writers OF
that communication; therefore
Resolved, That we heartily and cordially
adopt that communication as an exponent
Of our sentiment and purposes, and pledge
ourselves TO a strict observance OF the
| same.
On motion of Col. Dickson, it was or
dered that a copy of these resolutions be
sent TO the Legislature, addressed TO the
Chairman Of the Military Committee
through the honorable J. S. c. Reed, Rep
resentative Of Giles county, and that copies
les be furnished the Pulaski Citizen and
Nashville papers for publication,

THE RADICALS ATTEMPT TO GET
UP A RIOT IN CHARLESTON.

from inc CnarlCstOn NeWS.
We alluded briefly yesterday to the cir
cumstance that number of negroes at
tempted to interrupt the Democratic meet
ing held on the previous night, by shout
ing and cheering for Grant and Colfax.
Facts which have since come TO light, show
that the colured men on the outskirts of the
crowd were acting according 70 a pre-ar-
ranged plan, and that it was their purpose
to provake a collision between the Demo
Gratis and the Radicals.
Soon after the meeting was organized, the
tree boxes near the sand were torn down
by the Radical negroes. These were their
arms, and they at once began to yell and
curse at the white men near them. They
shouted, "down with the Rebels" "drive
'em home" "cut their throats," ID the
white monkeys" varying the tune occa-
sionally by calling for three cheers for
Grant, and by attempting to sing, Orally
| around the flag"
The white people and the cOlored Dem
| ocrats who were with them took no notice
| of these demonstrations, and the meeting
was quietly adjourned when Judge Aldrich
had finished speaking. After the adjourn
ment number of negroes crowded mp to
the platform, saying they would at once
use il for Grant and Colfax meeting. In
this they were disappointed, for the stand
was guarded by the members of the Demo.
cratic committee until it was taken down.
One of the peculiar features Of the coca
sion was stump speech made by Sam
DickersOn, a colored Radical, He told the
negros that they were disgrace TO Their
party; that the Democrats did not inter.
rupt their meetings, and they must not
trouble the Democrats and if they did they
would bring down upon themselves the Ill
will Of the whole community. This was
not palatable to the negroes, who threat
eued him with violence, and he would have
been mobbed bat for the protection giver
himiay the police.
| There is DO doubt that the whole move
ment was directed and arranged by TN
white leaders of the Radicals. The for
bearance and patience of the Democrats
averted any outbreak, but il such demon
strations are alloEed TO continue there mus
be serious trouble. It is the duty OF ih'
police 10 see that peaceful public Tneeting
are not interfered with, and as the Demo
crats never molest the Radicals when the!
have their gatherings, it is expected tha
they themselves shall not be annoye'
by the foul words sad gestures OF a lew uli
| bulent negroes.
