Beer Stamps.

This is a special to the Chicago Tribune:
WASHINGTON, August 1.-THE act of
Congress Of June 6, 1872, providing that. the
use of the One-third beer barrel and the
stamp of that denomination should cease
after August ], does not seem to work as
vet tremendously in accordance with the
act of last July. The Commissioner OF In
ternal Revenue issued orders requiring col
lectons to retain the One-tAird denomination
stamps. end to cause all fractional barrels
thereafter to be stamped with the half-ba
rel stamp. These orders were met with
considerable opposition from the beer manu-
facturers, until finally a delegation from
the various States waited, few days since,
on the Attorney General to get his opinion
on the law. The beer men claim that this
law will be a serious interference with their
business in the present state, and that 1t
will uDjustIy tax them. The Attorney Gen
eral will make his opinion public IN a few
days. 1t is believed in the Internal REEVE
nue. Department that the brewers have
bought up a large amount Of the one-thlrd
barrel stamps with the intention OF forcing
a pOstponement Of the operations Ot the act
till the next session of Congress.

BAD EGGs.-Last night Mr.. Chadwick
was paying off labcrers in the City Hall,
and some money brokers were inside the
building buying certificates, offering sixty
six cents. While so engaged, bad, ancient
eggs dropped down on the table, and the
money changers suddenly gathered up their
Iucre and fed the city's temple. Old eggs
perfumed the currency, adding a scent to
every dollar, thus making greenbacks above
par. No joke intended, in that sense. The
brokers having precipitately vamosed, all

THERE IS a SIGN-Au along the several
railroads passengers are informed Of the
names of small, insignificant villages by
signboards nailed to the depots. Coming to
New Orleans from Mobile, Pascagoula, BIZ
loxi, Mississippi City, Bay St. Louis, Rigo-
lets, etc, are named by large signboards;
but New Orleans is neglected, for it has no
sign; yet people readily ascertain the name
OF our city, as it is entirely unnecessary.
This bit of common information is given
for the benefit of a member of a ward club
who questioned this journals political
standing because we do not fly the names of
Greeley and Brown at the head Of a column
in plea type. The above hint will, perhaps,
satisfy the ward clubber; that is, it viii il
he can manage to push the inference
through his thick head.
