Tug RECENT SPEECH Of Sir Charles Dixie,
at GLASGOW, on 'class legislation, Is severely
criticised by the Saturday ReUietB which Is
only natural, cunslderingthe character of the
constituency Of that periodical. The high
Tory organ thinks that Sir Charles ideas, II
the feeble mental sensations which he eX-
perlenees can In any sense be called Ideas,
are vague, iragncntary aud lncohercnt."
Aud againi "Reading one Of bis speeches Is
like wandering In maze of blind alleys and
roads that lead nowhere. For moment
you may fancy you are on broad highway,
but II suddenly dIsappOlnts you like those
perpluElng hOroughfare5 of the American
backWOOds, which arc said TO dwindle TO a
squirrel track and run up tree The Bit
terness of the ReUie,S we suspect to lie In that
very American allusion. There Is far too
much of 'the perplcXlng American thorough
fare" In the speeches OF the young barOnet,
perpleXlng only n the readers and supporters
OF the great weekly.
A cause may be rldleuled, but q cause has
never yet been put down by ridicule Twenty

Consolidating The Whiskcy Tax at Seventy
cents q Gallon.

The draft of the bill prepared by
the Commissioner of Internal Revenue
for the consolidation of. the tax on
whiskey fixes the tax at seventy cents
galloni to be collected at the distil-
lery: He sent it to the Com mittee of
Ways and Means without recommen-
datioH. If it should become law it
will lesson the cost of collecting the
tax very ndoh, while it will also
give the Government lien on every
gallon legally produced for the full
amount of the tax, whereas at present
the lien is only for tho STAN p tax.
No objection is made to the proposed
change, but the distillors and dealers
in spirits are unanimously in its favor,
so that it is expected the committee
will report tho bill unanimously -

Another Casualty.
We neglected to record in our last
issue another casualty which occurred
in our town on Wednesday evening
last, tho 2lst instant:
1t seems that two boys, Andrew
Johnson, son of Henry Johhson, and
Preston Mckinney, both colorod, in
some %ny gdt hold of ar old pistol
on tho promises and were carelossly
handling the same, whom Preston, not
knowing it was loaded, unfortunately
discharged it, the load entering An
drew's mouth, killing him Instantly.
Going North to have Work
Done.
We clip the following from tho
Athens, Ca, Watchman, and think it
will apply to many other places as
we'll as Athens
A me, chant of this place seht in an
account few days ago made out on
bill-head which we know had not been
printed in Athens. We informed hi
that we could have bought the goods
in Now York for which we were then
paying as easily as he got his printing
done there. He said he wanted to
get it as cheap as possible. We re-
piled we could save more in the pur-
chase of goods than he could in print
ing, and that if everybody should
adopt the policy of sending to New
York for their supplies, the merchants
occupation would be gone that they
depended on their profits for support
and were the last persons on earth
who should set the example of be-
slowing their patronage on other cum-
munitieS that if there WAS any good
in it, we would all Gnd it out and
adopt it, and they would be compell-
ed 70 seek livelihood at somo other
business.
He acknowledged the justice of our
conclusions, and we then inquired
what his bill heads had cost, and had
the satisfaction Of Informing him that
we would furnish them at So less per
