The WHIsKEY FRAUDs.-Two whiskey
men, said to be members of the New York
whiskey ring, have been convicted in
Brooklyn. Their frauds are stated to have
comprised the issue of half a million OF
fraudulent bonds in one month.
Il This conviction exposes only q specimen
Of the wholesale frauds upon the Govern
ment in evading the whiskey tax. The taco
are convicted, while hundreds are yet un-
detected in their guilt. To what an enor-
nous extent, indeed, have these whiskey
frauds been carried, when whiskey is sold
everywhere at less than the Government tax
of two dollars gallon-say from sl.40 to
81 go per gallon? How can honest distillers
carry on their business at all under such q
corrupt state Of things?
And yet Congress, with all the facts be-
fore them, with proofs so clear that fifty
cents per gallon will yield more revenue
than two dollars that it is impossible to
deny them-holds on to the two dollars tax
What is the inference? Why, that Con-
gress itself is SO deeply involved in corrup-
ton, either by brides or in the profits Of
swindling the Government, that there is not
sufficient honesty and integrity left in the
body to protect the public interests when
individual gain is to be promoted by their
sacrifice. ~ sfl!ssss 45 - ltas $50 ]

of ten States and their representatives from

The Policy Of The Coming Admin
istratiOn.

Every little straw is gathered now
to show the probable policy Of the
General after his Inauguration. Here
are two of them: In the railroad car
from Chicago the other day, a gentle
man said to Grant General, | hope
when you are in office you will let us
have peace in fact as well as in name.'
TO this tho General answered, You
may be sure | will, sir. l shall make
peace, and a solid peace, which will
satisfy all good men North, South,
East and West A brother Of Gen.
Grant, who lives in Chicago, is report
ed to have said few days ago that
Grant intends to enforce the Recon
struetion laws TO the very letter, so far
as that duty may be bequeathed him
by the existing Administration. Per-
haps by the time of his inauguration
the whole business of reconstruction
will have been disposed of, but it not,
according to this traterhal authority,
Grant will execute them strictly. The
reason allodged for this is that Grant
holds that the will of the people is
the law Of the land, and that in the
election just decided the people ox-
pressed their will to have these recon
struotjon measures enforced BY en-
dorsing the measures and platform of
the Republican party. From bis nat
ural mOdesty he does not presume to
think that il was his personal popular.

endorsement Of Congress and its poll

VOLUNTARY DISGRACE.
Young Girls Determined Oh q Life
OF Shame.
IFrom The Troy CNov YsrfJ TInos.I ]


Within short time the police have
become acquainted with the fact con-
nected with the abandonment BY three
young girls of their homes, and their
deliberate entry upon lives Of prostitus
tion. In one Instance the father, an
Albanian, came to this city, and find
ing his daughter in house ofill fame,
prevailed upon her to accom- pany him
home. She remained there, however,
but short time, when she again de-
serted her family, and is now leading
life of infamy. A second one was
that Of a young girl, also an Albanian,
who came to this city and was admit
ted into house Of improper charac-
ter only attershe had brought from
her mother a written document. stat
ing that she had abandoned her, and
had no objections of her leading a life
OF shame. The paper was probably q
forgery. last night, in a celliu one
of the station-houses of the city, a
very beautiful girl, only seventeen
years of age, was confined for having
deserted her mother and voluntarily
entered upon career Of crime and
dissipation. The mother had been in
search of her for some weeks, and
yesterday succeeded in finding her
in fashionable place of resort on
Sixth Street. The interview between
the mother and daughter at the station
was of singular character. The
daughter charged her fall upon the
mother, saying that she had been driv-
en to desperation by the unkind treat
ment Of the parent, and debating
that she would never go home again
to be subjected to persecution and
outrage at her hands. Itwas evidene,
however, that taste for dress, a
desire to wear better clothes than
her means would secure--had been
the cause of, her downfall, and sub
sequently she confessed as much, The
young girl stated that the woman at
whose house she was discovered, and
the habitudes of the place bad all urg.
ed her to go homie and lead pnre and
virtuous life, and pointed out to her
the inevitable and certain end o. the
career upon which she was embark
ing but that she had thought the mat
ter all over and had fully determined
to continue on her course. A night
passed in the cells of the station, how
ever, give the foolish girl time for
further reflection, and this morning
she consented to return home with
her mother. We trust the lessen she
has already received will re sufficient
to keep her footsteps in the path Of
virtue.
