hope never to be wanting in any OF the pro-
prieties Of our profession, and particularly
in those little courtesies which are so cheap
and ye, give so much pleasure to others
We, therefore, in behalfofthose Republicans
whose sense of the obligation is so Cypress
i've that they can not speak, return sne'f
thanks to the Union for its valiant services

to thank the Union as a political paper, loi

far short of what is due. We must 'hshh

Auorr 2EyFYUE.-The beauties OF the |
radical law for the taxation Of the people Is
hes, illustrated by the "rulings' Of the indi- |
yidual who, for the time being, presides over
that "bureau." He is to all intents and pur
poses q legislator, Judge and executioner, 50
| far as the revenue law is concerned, espec'
alIv in small matters, where the sums exact
| ed by his Interpretation are not suihcient to
Justify the victim in testing the soundness
| Of the Commissioners decisions. The IN
Justice Of requiring men to repay the gov
eminent tax on every change OF firm, tor
time already paid, for the same business, Is
palpsbe to every well regulated mind. The
following decision is of the same character,
and can be defended upon no principle OF
fairness or honesty. The great license given
to the commissioner under the law, coupled
with his utter disregard of the ordinary
principles Of common sense, make 1t impos-
sible for business man to tell when he may
be liable to penalties for an infraction OF the
! rulings of this pecunary autocrat
The act of April 10th 1869 amendatory
of the Act of July Goth 1868, fixes the line
) between wholesale aud retail dealers in
e LIQUORS at fce gallons; the former is defined,
y "a person or firm who sells or offers for sale
} quantity of five gallons and upward at
i the same time" and the latter, one who
L "sells or offers for sale in quantity less than
Il five gallons"
& Pursuant to this the commissioner ruled
If Paragraph 81 of Series A., No. 4, 'that 6
retail dealer, or retail liquor dealer selling
out his stock at one auction sale, to differ
70 eut purchasers or at private sale to one per
~ son. would not thereby be made liable as {
ot wholesale dealer," that is to say, "if the
stock of goods sold as above amounted tt
:; over $4,000, he would not be held liable al
wholesale dealer.
:. This ruling the commissioner now revokes
and decides that "a retail dealer selling ou
y his entire stock at one auction sale, to diff
ferent purchasers, or at private sale, to on
person or firm, should include such sales il
his estimate of liability as a Wholesale deaI
n. err. The same is also true of retail liquo
u dealer
C. Consequently, if retail liquor dealer sell
a. his stock of liquors, five or more gallons, t
N. another person, he becomes liable to tn
be special tax as a wholesale liquor dealer, an
i'll if a merchant retail dealer wishes to Sc
nd his store, or stock of goods and wares to ar
e. other party, and the amount of such sal
til should be $4,000, he becomes liable to
special tax 90 q wholesale dealer,
