MOONSHINERS.
Revenue Officers Among the Illicit DisiiiIe-
ries OF Tennessee.

Revenue ORieers Among the Illicit DistiiIe-
ries OF Tennessee.
The Nashville american gives this
account of the recent revenue officers
visitation of Carroll county The oili-
GERS destroyed five distilleries, $4,000
gallons OF beer. and about $50 gallons
Of whiskey. A sixth still was cap
tured, but the owners rallied and re-
took it. The posse were III peril OF
their lives. From the moment that
they passed beyond the suburbs OF
Huntingdon they we're in danger. Keen
eyes were upon them. The moonshlners
who inlest the remoter districts take
every precaution to prevent surprise.
Not only are guards always oh duty in
the immediate vicinity Of the stills, buta
corps Of spies are continually on the
alert at Huntington and other towns,
whose business it is to "spot Gov
eminent officer as soon as he arrives.
A mess enger is dispatched Immediately
such an official is discovered to warn
the moonshiners. These spies are in
some instances beld to declare their
connection with the moonshiners, but
generally, as might be expected, pre-
serve discreet silence, the more eIlec-
tual in detecting the presence and con-
templa,ed action Of officers. In the
past ten years many plans on the
part Of the Government have been
,hwarted by the efficient service rem
dered by these Spies. At the moment
when il seemed impossible for the
moonshiners 10 escape, raiders have
discovered that their prey had flown,
being iorcwarned by some trusted agent,
tho had seen the officers begin the line
of march. The spies are rewarded for
activity; and apparently without means
OF sustsnance. are never without funds.
They are admitted to a share Of the
profits Of the bands whom they pro-
tect. There is system of espionage.
Each band of moonshiners has q spy
whose duty it Is TO notify that band
alone of the approach Of danger, so
that in the hurry Of giving the warn
ings no band is forgotten.
The posse, headed by Mr. Green,
were very discreet, but the results indi-
Gated that some spy had detected treir
movements and sounded the alarm, for.
although six stills were captured. only
two arrests were made, and neither OF
these in the still-houses. The posse
were guided by an old negro preacher.
He had grown to hate the mooDshiners.
Ii vas their custom 10 bring a key IF
whiskey to the vicinity Of his church,
and from time 10 time the male men,
bets Of his congregation were "tolled +"
to the whiskey, until, on more
than one occasion, half his flock
became so drunk and riotous that
he would be forced TO quit preach
/ ing. This incensed him so much that
he determined to aid the officers in ex-
pelllng the boisterous gang who had de-
stroy ed his influence. The old man did
successfully pilot the posse to the stills.
but he notified them the next day that
be knew that his par, in the affair would
lie discovered by the moonshiners, and
then be would be killed so be would
take time by the forelock and leave the
county. The posse ware heavily armed
with rifles and pistols, aud kept sharp
look out as they advanced. The region
was well adapted to the work Of

In all the realms of nature aud art
there is nothiog more beautiful than
the Christmas tree. To comprehend

here and there some luscious fruit lis
q thing of beauty and q JOY all through
the season. And the pleasure p0r.
trayed on the faces of the little ones
