IMPORTANT TO DISTILLERS
DIstiIIers, Bonds, Notices, Special
Taxes, etc.


Taxes, etc.
The following important notice to distil-
lers, either those who propose continuing
or quitting the business, was received at
the Assessors Office in this city yesterday,
from ]. W. Douglas, Deputy United States
Commissioner. The Deputy Commits
sioner in order to urevent confusion and
delay in the operations of distillers de-
string to continue or commence business
after April 30, 1871, asks strict compliance
with the subjoined, which we are assured
will be rigidly enforced. Those interested
will act accordingly:
DistiIlers should understand, that with
the last day of April their rights as distil-
lers cease, and those intending to then dis
continue distilling, must SO arrange their
business a. to terminate all work at their
distilleries on the last day of April, and
not, as has been so frequently done, have
beer on hand to be distilled in the first
DAYS of May This Office cannot do other
wise in such cases than to treat the parties
as illicit distillers. Distillers intending to
discontinue business should on the Both
day of April register their stills as not for
use. A distiller desiring to continue his
business, can only do SO legally by giving
his notice, Form 81, and execu-
ting his bond on the first day of May,
in compliance with the requirements
of said Section 7. Such distiller should
have his bond complete and ready for exc
cution, with his notice, Form 81, prepared
and presented to the Assessor, a sufficient
length of time in advance of the first day
of May to enable him to make the necessa-
~ Investigations by that day, so that he
may, on the first day of May, when the
bond is executed, approve or disapprove
such bond When the bond is approved
on the first day of May, the distiler may
continue his work st his distillery but
where the bond is disapproved, the mere
fact of having pre- ented it confers no right
upon the distiller, but he will be regarded
as having failed to give bond as required
by said section, and must cease all work at
his distillery. The Assessor, in approving
the bonds, should endorse his approval
thereon, giving the date of such approval,
and sign his name thereto officially. The
fact that the distiller may fail to renew his
bond, or that the bond offered by him may
not be approved, does not require the
withdrawal of the spirits that he may have
in bonded warehouse, nor work a discon-
tinuance of such bonded warehouse. It is
true, that distillery warehouse will only
be established for an authorized distilleE
and at an authorized distillery; yet, hav-
ing been so established, the distiller has
acquired the right under the laws to have
his spirits remain in bond according to the
condition of his warehousing bond, which
is, that the tax shall be paid thereon bs-
fore removal from such distillery ware
house, and within one year from the date
of such bond.

AN AWKWARD PRECEDENT.

There are many unthinking friends of
France who are fond Of accusing Prussia
| of brutality in the treatment of Paris.
How little foundation there is in such
charges has been seen by all who haye
read our account of Napoleon entry in
to Berlin and the short formal occupation
of the Champs Elysees by the Uhlans of
Germany. The world has done justice
to the moderation of the Triumphant ar
my which marched away from the cap
.tured metropolis without having ever
seen the inside of its frowning walls
The wise and prudent reserve which the
German Foreign Office has observed In
regard to the present instruction has
equally challenged the general respect.
The Prussian Cabinet can scarcely be ex-
pected to survey with caimness for a
much longer time the insane antics of the
Paris Commune and the laxity of the
Government in enforcing its authority at
home and fulfilling its treaty stipulations
abroad.
If Bismark should manifest some i'm
patience at the delay in the payment
Of the French indemnity, he will not
want for precedent. In July, 1907,
after the conclusion of peace between
France and Prussia, the Emperor Ma
poleon wrote to his general commanding
at Berlin to the following effect: 'The
contribution imposed upon the City of
Berlin)is to be paid to the last sou, and
it is only ON this condition that [ shall
withdraw my troops. Give notice to the
inhabitants, therefore, that unless they
pay the ten millions they will have a
French garrison eternally. [ estimate
that the States which remain to the King
Of Prussia owe seventy-three millions.
The arrears of revenue for the year past
are equally due to me. 1t is only when
the Sc debts are paid that [ shall evacu-
ate Berlin and the countries given back
to the King of Prussia
In case any heroic remedies for the
reimbursement of the debt due to Prus-
sia should be adopted by the North Ger
man Government, it will not belong to
the admirers of Napoleon and his school
to object to it.-N y Tribune.

with a view of finding practicable route
for ship canal uniting the Gulf of Mex

such route. This, in connection with
the fact that practicable route has also
