ternal revenue tax. under such regu-
lations as the Secretary of the Treas
ury may prescribe"
Under this provision the depart
ment has prepared a code of regula

If the vessel named is clearing coast

not excessive. issues a permit direct
ing the storekeeper to deliver the sup
plies to the Surveyor who will load
them on the vessel. The articles as
withdrawn and taken on board as
supplies will be noted on the clearance
and manifest, and upon arrival of the
vessel, if clearing coastwise, at a port
in the United States, the collectors at
the intermediate ports shall see that
no portion of the supplies is landed
except upon payment of duties.
Reasonable quantities" of articles
of every description will be permitted
to be withdrawn free of duty. but the
withdrawal of wines and liquors free
of internal tax is limited to the fol-
lowing schedule: Imported wine and
beer. five gallons per month, and i'm
ported cigars, fifty per month for

Details of the Meeting Between tn,
China and teking.

The meeting between the Pacific
Mail steamships China and Peking in
mid-ocean on the 9Th inst. is thus gra-
phically described by an eye witness:
1t was about in the afternoon of
Tuesday last that Captain Smith of
the Feking discerned the smoke of tine
China almost directly ahead of him,
and at o'clock the China came al
most head on, up to the Picking, signl-
ling that she had her Hawaiian reg
lister, and that dispatches for Mr..
Schwerin We're on board both from
Japan and China and Honolulu. On
the steamers coming up abreast of
each other, within a stones throw,
the Picking lowered boat, which Mr..
Schwerin entered. Sitting with him
was an American naval officer, Il pas
senger on board en- route to Japan,
and as the sea was very smooth at the
time, Mr.. Schwerin and his friend
We're able to board the China in a few
minutes. After "A short conference
with Captain Seabury, and leaving
with him certain instructions, Mr..
Schwerin met and conversed with the
Russian Admiral, and other disting-
uished passengers on the China for a
short while. and after half hours
visit reboarded the Picking, and each
steamer started again on her respec-
tive course.
There was great excitement among
the passengers as the big steamers ap-
preached each other. so near and not
a few of the ladies We're much fright
ened for fear of a collision, but when
the steamers 9lided away safely from
each other, there was great cheering
and satisfaction over the successful
event.

Trusting that you may be in
terested in cycling, we take the
liberty of stating to you few
facts about our wheels:
We need not trouble you with
needless description of the World
Famed "RAMBLER" Bicycle,
which by it's easy running, ap-
pearance, strength and lasting
qualities has won for the makers
a name world renowned.
The "RAMBLERS" are equi-
ped wiIh the great G.&J. Detach-
able Tire, which since its intro
duction to Honolulu has proved,
by the numbers in use, the most
successful and necessary adjust
ment TO bicycle.
We take great pleasure in re-
comoEding to our friends the
RAMBLER" and trust that in
furnishing one to any person they
will never have occasion to regret.
Our terms are such that bicy-
Gle is no longer luxury but
necessity in actual saving of time
and money. We would ask you
to hut all and get our figures.

AS is customary nearing the
close of each year, the makers in
order to get ready for the ensuing
year, offer the present 1896
wheels at reduced prices. We are
now prepared to give our GUS
toners the benefit Of these reduc-
tions as long as our stock holds
uut. For those wishing an up to
date wheel of the highest grade,
one which we can guarantee to
the fullest extent, we would offer
the "RAMBLER." AS to i'm
provements for the coming season
we would say we anticipate none.
Such changes which may be made
will, as has been the past two
years, be changes immaterial to
the improvement of the wheel in
general.
Kindly give this some thought
or call your Reconsideration to it
and oblige.
Yours truly,

Thanks Bro. Smith.

We thank our good friend, Rev.
James A. Smith, of Fair Bluff, for the
following, which he contributes to the
Whiteville News:
Your correspondent deeply sym.
pathizes with Bro. NcDiarm1d in the
loss of the Robesonian office and its
futures, and We hope that the Robe
sonian will soon rise, phoenix like.
from the ashes. For a quarter of a
century the Robesonian has been
thoroughly identified with the people
OF Robson county and adjacent sec
ton. 1t has always been clean
sheet and has never compromised the
dignity of the press or the honor OF
journalism by an appeal to ignorant
passion or prejudice, and like Truth,
though crushed to the earth by fire, it
will rise again, to indicate the right
against the wrong. We have alwlys
had high regard and esteem for the
editor of the Robesonian. We were
beardless youths together in the wal
between the States and belonged to
the same command. We hope that oil
who owe the Robesonian will at per.
sonal sacrifice pay their subscriptions,
and that thousands of new subscribers
will rally to the rescue of Bro. Nc
Diarmid. He has worked long and
faithfully, and may his present mis-
fortune be but blessing in disguise
to prove to him the sincerity of his
friends and their appreciation of his
SUCCESS.
