termed Justice to some of the unoffending

comply with their request, and used toward
them some violent language, whereupou
they shot him down, killing him Instantly
They then visited the house of --
Shepherd, who lived only a short dis

that he had gone. Upon emerging from

FROM reports in the Revenue Bureau
it appears that at the present time
frauds in tobacco alone far exceed those on
whisky and spirits, which has never before
occurred. The frauds are mostly confined
to Virginia and North Carolina, and dealers
in Northern cities interested in tobacco in
those States. A recently detected coun-
terfeit stamp has been used with great sue
cess in those States, and circular will be
issued by Commissioner Delano in refer
ence to it. Large invoices were recently
captured in Chicago, numbered with the
counterfeit stamp, which were shipped
from Cincinnati.
