COMPLAINTS in regard to the New
York customhousc are thus stated by
an exchange:
New York importers complain loudly Of
smuggling which they say has greatly in

Cincinnati merchants complain OF the
outrageous way the officials in the New
York customhouse have Of stealing goods.
4 gentleman of this city recently imported

New York customhouse, he had only an
empty case

A Faro Bank III Eeeiee.

fattened for the table. d.nck seemed to 60

and lost: then he bet his mosher-in-law and
lost. He did not shed a tear over .his disas-
ter. Then he staked his unmarried sister,
and his wi,e's cousins; and the bank Iaked in
ali the chips. The infatuated chief then Of.
tered his baby, and the owner OF the bank
had 1t packed down in the ice chest in less
than fifteen minutes. The chief then be: all
his children successfully, and lost; and then,
having gambled away his wife he staked him
self on the last chance, aud again bet On the
wrong card. Wncn he had time to think it
over. the Chief said that he was convinced
that gambling was very wrong. and he
thought that it ought to be suppressed BY the
authorities. But before his friends could get
a bill passed, he was killed and put in a cask
to corn for the faro bank man. A succession
of peculiarly succulent free lun hes maue
