[DY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD
RICHMOND, Sept. Ii, 1877.
An inspection OF the MoIet registers by tho HERALD
correspondent In twenty-iour leading saloons up 10
midnight yesterday show paid tax on alcoholic and
malt drinks of about $3.50 for the tour days the reg.
listers have been in operation.
REVENUE THE STATE
A calculation based upon this exhibit shows that in
State from this city alone would be hundred
thousand dollars per annum, and In the State about
half million. This will insure the Mofc register
o permanent taxpaying institution.
OPPOSITION OF THE BARKEEpERs.
The barkecpcrs still bitterly opposed to the re-
gister. notwithstanding tho TACT that the tax comes
out tho consumer upon whom they have raised the
prices Thor objections are that the NJ onet law i'm
poses tho duty OF collecting the taxes upon them
which no other class Of even subjected to
that 1t occupies their tine without compensation, and
that II exposes their business TO the publc.
LEGAL PRoCEEDIyGS
further hearing US TO the legality OF the patent
for the register will be had IN the United States Cir
cult Court next month. If the barkccpcrs not
successful In defeating 1t then the matter VIII be
tested in the State courts aud vigorous fight Will be
adc against the register in the Legislature when 1t
mccts. So tar Richmond Is the only city In the Com
monwcah where the registers have been put In
ton. IL will DO some time yet before the State DO

tax gives rise to serious complaint nero, wherc II has
