AN ORDER FOR DISTILLERS.
Must Not Refill Casks Or Package.
Previously Used.

The Commissioners of Internal
Revenue has issued circular prohibi-
ting the refilling at distilleries of casks
or packages previously used at the
same distillery. 1t is as follows:
"It is the practice Of many disti'lers
to use and reuse constantly the same
packages for conveying spirits from
distilleries to rectifying houses. Such
reuse has been permitted for the rea
son that, it is alleged, that it is saving
to distilleries in cooperage, but from a
full investigation Of this practice it is
found to result in great loss of revenue
to the government by reason of the
tax on part Of the contents being
evaded each time that package is so
reused, and the loss increases with
each reuse. The repeated removal of
the stamps, marks and brands from
the heads soon renders them so thin
that the clippers will not indicate the
true length, while the repeated reno
val of bungs depresses and fattens the
bung slaves 50 that the rod will not
indicate true mean diameter. In
consequence of these practices. the
packages thus reused soon become SO
misshapen that they are almost of ne
cessity underguaged.
"'The fact that spirits are distributed
to the trade at much lower proof and
greater volume than that at which
they are tax~paid, precludes the posi-
bility of the distiller suffering loss if
the reuse of packages is discontinued.
To allow the distiller and wholesale
dealer to have two sets of packages
Gone to be taxed by and the other to
sell by) invites the fraudulent con
struction of casks for both purposes.
The integrity of the capacity of a
package is increased by its being used
both at the distilery and upon the
market If their reuse at distilleries
be prohibited, the same casks will
| likely be so used.''

ARE NEGROES FIT CITIZENS.
The Leaksville Gazette Has Grave Doubts
on the Subject.

The negroes in the lower part of
Georgia seem to have gone wild on
subject of what they call religion.
One Of their set claims to be Christ,
another King Solomon, a third is
Nebuchadnezzar, and he eats grass
like a COW while fourth is woman
who glories in the title of Queen of
Sheba. These leaders hold continu-
Gus outdoor meetings, which are at
tended by thousands of deluded blacks
who place unbounded confidence in
the absurd teachings daily proclaimed.
They have abandoned their crops, and
entirely given themselves up to a
species of frenzy that is becoming
dangerous. One man, having no
Isaac to slay upon an altar, has mur-
dered his daughter in order to prove
his faith Some of the leaders have
been arrested, but the craze has not
been abated.
In Birmingham, Ala, the same
disease has broken out, and a few days
ago an old negro proclaiming himself
the prophet Daniel, persuaded three
young negro men that they were Sha
drack, Meshack and Abednego, the
three children Of faith who had enter
ed the fiery furnace of Nebuchadnez-
zar. The prophet claimed that an
iron furnace near by was the same
sort of an institution, and that the
colored Hebrews should enter it and
pass through without even the smell
of gre on their garments. Lhey enter
ed, but when they failed to come out
the willy Daniel" proclaimed that he
saw them rising into the air with the
smoke of the furnace attended by an
gels, and said that they would revisit
the earth on the following SUNDAY.
Hundreds Of negroes believe in this
crazy leader.
The Georgia and Alabama negroes
are adding another phase to the race
problem. If, after enjoying the advan
tages of civilization, liberty and Nor
thern philanthropy for so many years,
they have made so little advancement
beyond voudooism and the wild bar
barity Of the jungles from whence their
fathers sprung, how can they ever de-
velop into responsible American citi
zens? Pandemonium breaks out and
rude savagery rules whenever they
congregate, even when for a day they
are left to themselves and if coloniz-
ed away from the restraining infu-
ences of present associations, it is be-
lievod, and not without reason, that
the race would speedily relapse into
the most benighted barbarity.

BRER BROWER AND BRER goshen,
The Republican Calls Brewer The Judas
Isoariot of the Party.
From the Winston Republican. |

From the Winston Republican,
gress has been decided upon by the
President and the time for its conveu-
ing is rapidly approaching, it is but
natural, in view Of his prominence as
kicker that the Republicans of
this district should desire to know def
nitely the position of Congressman
Brewer in regard to his entering the
Republican caucus, or whether his
Independent Speakership candidacy is
still on.
1t is certainly remarkable and ar
CUES i'll for his standing in Washing
ton as Republican "that Brewer and
his friends should have to organize
bolt and threaten to turn the House
over to the Democrats in order to be
permitted to control appointments in
his own district under a Republican
President and Republican Admins
tration, which oy custom and cour-
tesy are usually conceded without
question.
His vote ON the Mills Bill lost him
more than thousand votes in the
district and would have cost him his
election but for the appeals of the
State and National Republican Exec
utive Committees on the ground that
he would be needed to organize the
House, a majority in which after the
closest calculation, the latter commit
tee announced would not exceed the
present number of three, and might be
possibly only one 1t was onl y in the
face of such appeals that opposition
among many Republicans was hushed
and hundreds went to the polls and
voted, not for the man but for the
party, who would have remained away.
1t is reproach not only to the dis
trict and the State, but to the whole
country, that of the II Representa-
tives from the South elected as Repub-
licans, the 5th district of North Caro-
lima furnishes the Judas Iscariot,
whose sirname is Brewer Nothing
like it that we can now recall has ever
disgraced the political history of any
other State, North or South.
1t seems that between the opposition
Of the Bourbons at home, the suspicion
and want of sympathy on the part of
Republicans of the North, coupled
with the duplicity and trickery of such
party leaders Cd as Brewer, the
Southern Republicans have yet long
time to endure before they can stand
the test of the pure metal. Is it not
time for the honest Republicans of
the district to speak out in this matter?

WELL, THIS is RICH!
A TARHEEL TOURIST BEFORE THE
QUEEN OF ENGLAND.

He Drops on His Knees and Attempts to
Kiss Her Hand, But is Brought to His
Senses in an Abrupt Manner-The Teach
ers Humiliated.
From the Greensboro North State
1t appears to have been left to
North Carolina to develop the cham
pion funkey of the present age. To
have played before the crowned heads
of Europe, and to have won the ap-
plause # royalty is regarded by many
actors and stage players as an envia
BILE distinction, and we take it that
such mark is valued by all classes of
performers, tragedians and comedians,
as we'll as humorists and clowns.
Major Harrell, who at the head of
the North Carolina school teachers,
recently visited Queen Victoria at
Buckingham palace, is entitled to the
distinction of having played the f,ol
to the Queens taste. As is we'll
known there are number of North
Carolina teachers and gentle
men-on a tour through Europe
While in England the teachers ex-
pressed desire to visit the Queen,
and through the kind Offices of Minis
ter Lincoln, an arrangement was made
for them to do so.
In company with Mr.. Lincoln, and
escorted by Mr.. Ponsonby, the Queens
private secretary, the party headed by
the valiant Major proceeded to the
palanee and we're ushered into the
presence Of her Majesty, who sat COM
posedly in a chair. Secretary Pom
sonby presented Minister Lincoln,
who in turn introduced Major Harrell.
The words of introduction had hardly
escaped the Minister'S lips when Har-
rell dropped upon his knees at the
Queens feet and undertook to kiss
her hand. He was prevented, how
ever, from carrying out his purpose by
the timely intervention Of Mr.. Pom
sonby, who it is said, caught the
sycopbant by the collar Of his coat
and snatched him to his feet.
The performance was so ridiculous
the Queen looked embarrassed; but,
Princess Beatrice, who was standing
by, was so filled with laughter that
she could scarcely repress the out
burst Minister Lincoln felt ashamed,
and the rest of the party, hidin" their
humiliation as best they could under
the circumstances, sought the first OPP
portunity to make their exit from the
scene.
The facts above are gathered from
a London correspondence of the Ral-
eigh NeaUs- Observer. We learn further
from the same source, that Captain
Percy Gray, of Greensboro, and John
Morehead, of Charlotte, paid five
pounds each for a teachers ticket to
accompany the party on the visit. We
will venture the assertion that either
one of these boys would have given
ten times the amount to have had
Harrell where they could have tickled
his coat tail with the points of their
shoes, about the time he was making
his asinine exhibition in the presence
of royalty.

THE MOUNT AIRY NEWS.
1t Disclaims Any Prejudice Against
Winston.
From the Mt. Airy Ne,cs.

From the Mt AIRY Neacs.
The Winston Daily comes sgain,
charging us as before. The Daily, we
observe, is addicted to controversy.
Uses it as medium of advertising,
we presume. She has been coEtro-
verting her able contemporaries, THE
SENTINEL and Republican, for the
last six months, and we have seen her
crawling out at the back door two or
three times Now we say plainly we
don't want any controversy, and will
not have any.
A week ago the Daily alleged that
we were prejudiced. In our last issue
We stated. upon the honor Of man,
that essarere not, and asked a retrac-
tion. This week he repeats the charge
and demands at our hands evidence to
prove that we are not prejudiced. He
is the aggressive party in this matter,
and it is his duty to bring forth evil
dence to show that we are guilty-we
defy him.
He charges that we are "prejudiced
to something or somebody" We deny
it. His meaning is obscure, but we
presume he means we are prejudiced
against him or some newspaper in
Winston. He has no evidence to
prove it, but on the other hand, we
can prove that we are not. In several
instances has this aper taken occasion
to speak good word for The SENTI-
MEL, Republican and Daily. No more
than four or five weeks ago we spoke
unusually kind of the Daily, and we
can reproduce our language when de-
manGed.
But we are going beyond the limits
of that independence which society
vouches unto every gentleman. We
beg the friendship Of no man. What
we have stated we have stated. If we
have not honor We have nothing.
