Tax ON D,.s,lled sp,riss.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 1.-THE internal revenue
bureau has just issued regulations aud instruc-
tons concerning the tax on distilled spirits sup.
Elemental to those of August last. No distiller' 8
bond can be approved until bus distillery ware
house has been provided and established under
the act of July 9Th. and distillery permitted to
start until storekeeper has been assigned to
each warehouse. No reduction will be made upon
capacity, tax or suspension until required notices
are given TO the assistant assessor.
Any distilling done at night or at any other time
when the storekeeper Is not present. is prohibited
from and after November lat. Stamps for distilled
spirits win be required to be used in all cases as
provided by law. The stamps are engraved and
bound In book FORM the books tax paid stamps,
containing three hundred stamps each, and others
four hundred each. The value Of the books, other
than those Of tax paid stamps, is 81 0s each, and
the books OF tax paid stamps range from SIS $50
to $40 $50, according to the number of gallons re-
presented.
The instructions are specific both as to duties Of
distilers and government officers. The commits
sioner says the abolition Of the office OF revenue
agents and inspectors throw an increased respon
sibty upon the local officers Of the several dis
tricts, and it depends mainly on their action
whether or not the provisions Of the new Law shall
be carried out and illicit dstillation depressed, aad
they will be held to strict accountability for the
enforcement Of the law In their several dis
fricts A

A Terrible Outrage IN Arkansas.

A correspondent of the Memphis Avalanche
from Carroll county writes thus On the 9Th inst.
at a church house On Crooked creek, four or five
Radicals raised a row on the Sabbath. Knowing
that the conservatives were all unarmed they dred
into the crowd, killing one man dead upon the
spot and wounding three others, of which two
have since died; one IL is supposed will recover
This was done by men that claim to belong TO the
law. We suppose they have commenced the en-
forcement This is the first Radical outrage upon
the citizens OF this county. We have enough of
IL. We have lived in peace for three years, but
are nos ws 70 Inn. ,v our TO-
civil law that will not submit to 1t themselves.
We understand that the sheriff. together with the
good citizens of this county demanded that the
lawless scamps be brought to justice and let the
law have its course in the premises.
We have not heard word from them since
they committed the act, only what we heard on
the next day. The Radicals all gathered ~ the
number Of fifty strong at Capt Fickss store. We
suppose 10 protect the outlaws against the civil
authorities. The good citizens of this county are
law.abiding. and will help TO enforce it, provided
IL 10 in their power to do so. We had not been
appraised that there was another war no, until the
Radicals creed charging places Of public
worship, seeking whom they might devour. They
killed their own brother in-law in the fight. We
have been told that there we're two conservatives
armed, and that they we're the first two shot
down, and did not use their arms. The conserva.
tive people Of this county have not been in the
habit OF carrying arms fer the las. three years.
Now We ask The question, what shall We do IL the
Radical authorities, under Radical form of gov
eminent, suffer men TO 60 TO church houses and
commit such outrages upon people, end fail to
bring them to justice for the want Of Law, and
men, too, who will enforce il to the letter, Our
county has been In prosperous condition for the
last three year.. Registration is on hand and We
are all calculating to register and vote for Sey-
mour and Blair, that the laws may be fairly sd-
ninistered to ALL .a-s f.fa.r.. o.
