AN IMPORTANT DECISION.

In reply to letter to the Treasury
Department asking what course would
be pursued by the Government With re-
gard to re-imported whisky. Secretary
Folgsr answered ss fol!owss
"Guided by the opinion Of the
United States Attorney General. this
department holds that articles Of
growth. or the product OF manufacture
in the United States. when exported
and rc-imported under section 800.
United States Revised Statutes. are not
within the puryiew Of our customs
warehousiug system. and that they
cannot lawfully be stored under laws
creating that System. This will apply
to distilled spirits manufactured in the
United States once exported and re i'm
ported.
Under the section above cited. upon
the landing OF such spirits the Collector
Of Customs will "xac; payment Of duty
equal to the tax imposed by the Inter
ma Revenue laws. They will not per-
init them to be entered for storage in
the bonded warehouse. and II there be
failure Of other means to obtain duty.
they will seize and hold them for the
same and all legal expenses of their &C.
ton"
This decision virtually closes the ave.
nue. by which the manufacturers hoped
10 defer payment Of the heavy tax on
distilled spirits; and when the vast SUN
derived from the whisky TX is consid-
cred, the Importance Of the decision
will he appreciated. When 1t is under.
stood that the proposed concession in
tue way Of deferred tax payments was
to apply only to liquors Of home manu-
facturr, the injustice Of such a scheme
to other home tnufacturrrs aud the
taxpayers at largr, becomes sirikingly
apprr, mt. aud the wisdom Of s'Tic
construction uf the hw, us st forth in
the decision above quoted. wall be read

A CowardIy Deed.

News was received some days ago that
an insane man named jerks. who had
been for time running about in Pahr-
anaSat valley. had been killed by citi-
zens OF the locality, and the Piocho
Record now furnishes the following
particulars Of the murderous affair:
Jerks was trailed to his place in the
mountains by several whites aud Iu-.
dians. After few exchange shots with
jerks, in which the pursuing party
opened the firing on him, the latter
made them all hunt their holes, and aid
was sent for. Upon the arrival of rein
forcements-making ESiz.Sen persona,
including whites and Indiaus-the
rocks which concealed Jerks were sur
rounded and fire opened on him from
all directions. Being attacked on all
sides by hidden foes. jerks started to
run, when he was hit in the breast by n
ball and fell dead immediately. When
the parties went AMI examined the
SOAJ VI huo IL Nhs
that his gun was empty and cartridge
was not to be found around the person
of the dead. jerks used to get his food
by going to the houses OF the settlers,
after dark. The settlers would supply
him with food. but there never was an
attempt made TO capture the insane
mana feat that could have been very
easily accomplished. jerks labored un-
der the ballunica,ion that members OF
the Masonic Order were after him aud
trying to kill him. He said that he

After carefully reading over and
thoroughly digesting the elaborate
statement recently made by the Hon.
Stephen W. Dorsey, with respect to the
part hims-lf and other chief leaders of
the Republican party played in tue
last Presidential campaign. the Buffalo
New York; Courier expresses itself as
follows:
1--WE rise from the peIusal Of this
miserable narrative with the conviction
that Garfield had no moral night TO
prosecute Dorsey; that Arthur had no
moral right to prosecute him; that the
Republican party had no moral right to
prosecute him. lie was the hero of a
shameful aud venal canvass, in which
the leaders Of the party bargained for
the spoils OF Office, assessed the Gov.
ernmert employees, blacklnailed mo-
nopolis;s, accepted the booty Cf thieves.
and purchased the vote Of State. And
the whole organization approved OF the
work. Dorsey should be restored to
the pedestal on which the speechma-
kers the Delmonicc dinner set him.
lie Is the typical Republican polirici IN
Of this generation, and If the party Is
fit to be IN power. he is ceriaiuly fit 10
sit IN its higL places. 1t is TO his credit
that he refused Cabinet Office when
others were engaged in Wild scramble
fos spoils. and that, nltlodgh threat
ened with disgrace aud the punish
incnt of frl0n. where others were ouly
threatened with the loss of patronage.
he took little share in The quarrel that

woman alone with The dead child,
other ladies having temporarily gone
away, he made n british proposal to
her right IN the face OF the little corpse,
which was instantly resented by tbs
surprised and shocked woman. who
thought him a friend. Not being satis-
fed with n Art refusal to his hollish
proposal, lie went to tho extreme OF re-
sorting to force to accomplish his dGs-
tardly design. She tore from his grasp
and ran from the house toward the
grave-jiggers, screaming for help.
Hutchinson followed. The men at the
grave ran to her, and then she told Of
Hutchison's acts. That was enough.
They seized him and got n rope. 1t
was tied around his neck and the other
end tt~ .wn over limb Of IA tree. But
as Hutchison begged and pleaded for
his neck, the men agreed to let him 90
