The Ilevenue Law and Distilled Spirits.
It is conceded on all hands that distilled
spirits should be largely taxed by the
General Government. It ia evident that
under the present system the taxes
that are Imposed are to a great ex
tent evaded. The Government must raise a
Sufficient amount of money to defray its ex
penses, including interoRt on the national
debt, and the redemption of the same as it
falls due. Every dollar that distilled spirits
Mjfttopay, but of which, the Government
i3 defrauded, has to be raised from something
else. There are many onerous taxes that
might be entirely remitted, were the taxes
upon distilled spirits honestly paid. Where
la the fault? Primarily with the manufac
turers of distilled spirits, who, as a class, do
not hesitate to defraud the Government, and
to commit the grossest perjury in doing so.
The Government must legislate upon this
subject with this fact before its eyes.
But, secondly, the fault lies with the officers
of the Government who are themselves cor
rupted, bribed, bought up by the distillers,
and beceme partners in the commission of
frauds upon the very Government in whose
employ they are, and which they have sworn
faithfully to serve. We are not disposed to
indulge in any wholesale denunciation of the
revenue officers of the United States. There
are some men among them who are a3 honest
and high-minded as it Is possible for men to
be whose integrity gleams jewel-like amid,
the baser materials with which they are sur
rounded. There are others and the commu
nity generally understand who they are who
are as base and mercenary and purchasable
aa lost to all honor and true self-respect as
the veriest thieves of the street.
Thirdly. The fault lies to a great extent
with the Revenue law itself, which affords
Buck opportunities for fraud. It is too cum
brous, too complex, and opens too many doors
for the successful perpetration of dishonest
acts and practices. A distiller may defraud
the Government daily of half the taxes he
ought to pay, and may defy detection unless
the officer watching him is a praotioal distiller
himself, which, in nineteen cases out of
twentv. he is not likely to be. The with-
drawal of spirits for rectification and for ex
port are each the gateways for immense
frauds. The law attempts to do too much, and
fails in properly doing anything.
Now, one simple principle should lie at the
bottom of the Revenue law in regard to the
distillation of spirits; and that is, to determine
the amount of .spirits manufactured by the amount
of material used. The problem is a simple
one, and Is capable of an exact solution.
During the process of making distilled spirits
from grain, the material used is exposed for
three days in large fermenting vats, and is
technically called "beer." During this time
It cannot be concealed from the view of the
Inspector. It is there exposed in the vats.
Every gallon of this beer will yield a cer
tain percentage of distilled spirits, varying
somewhat with the skill used in manufac
ture. All that the Government has to do
therefore, is to fix upon some fair average as
the percentage of distilled spirits to the gal
lon of beer, and then to assess its tax accord
ingly upon the actual contents of the ferment
ing vats from time to time. The contents of
a vat in gallons, for every inch of its depth,
are easily determined. All the elements of
the problem are, therefore, before the eye of
the Revenue officer. All that he has to do is
to visit a distillery, see how many gallons of
beer are in the vats, and from that actual in
spection determine the number of gallons of
distilled spirits upon which the Government
will collect its tax.
Of course, there is still a chance for fraud.
The Government officer may report to the As
sessor a smaller amount of "beer" from time
to time than there really is in the vats. But
it is a great gain to have reduced the liability
to frauds connected with the manufacture to
one single point, for that can now be tho
roughly watched and guarded. It is a great
advantage to have eliminated the manufac
turer from the problem, and to have brought
the whole weight of the responsibility to rest
upon the Government official alone. Besides,
the point itself is easily guarded. A
glance will suffice te show if a fraudulent
return has been made. For instance, if the
present system of Assistant Assessors and of
Revenue Inspectors should be continued, the
one could be made to operate as a check upon
the other. Moreover, the actual capacity of
the vats In each distillery being known, short
returns would 'at once attract the attention of
the Assessor or Collector, and would lead to
immediate Investigation. Further checks and
counter-checks might be devised, whereby it
a aimnnt imnossible for the Govern-
yrvutiA
went to be defrauded as to the amount of dis
tilled spirits manufactured.
A modification of the Revenue law, in accord
ance with the foregoing suggestions, might
take something of the following outline:
First All grain distilleries to have their fer
menting vats numbered in regular order, and
their full capacity in gallons per inch of depth
given, and diagrams of the same to be exposed
in the office or counting-room, ana aiso ae
posited with the Assessor and Collector of the
Oiitrlct.
THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH rniLADELPinA, SATURDAY,
Becond. Assistant Assessors to visit distil
leries daily, and report to the Assessors the
number of gallons of beer in the vats respec
tively. Third. Beer to be run off every third day,

which must be reported in writing to the
Assessor, together with the condition of the
vats at the time of stoppage, and to make
written application for resumption of opera
tions. Fourth. A fixed percentage of the beer to be
determined by the Government as its standard
of taxation, that is, so many gallons of spirits
to so many gallons of beer, and the amount to
be returned by the Assessor for collection
every ten days.
Filth. Distillers to give bonds sufficient to
cover the capacity of their vats for the manu
facture of thirty days.
Sixth. Revenue Inspectors to make exami
nation of Assistant Assessors' reports, and of

Ignored !
On Monday afternoon last, August 5, Miohael
McAnany, a paper stainer, residing at No. 731
South Seventh street, went before Alderman
Beitler at the Central Station, and testified as
follows:
"On July 14 1 proceeded to the Are on South
street, below Seventh. While I was standing
near our engine (the Ilope), talking to some of
our men about the steamer's not being in ser
vice, Alderman McMullln caught hold of me
and told me to leave. He had hold of me by the
coat-collar, and dragged me some distance. Bay
ing that If I didn't go away 'he would put
bumble bees around my head.' I did not say
anything to him. He also told me that he
would oi eaK my jaw."
On this testimony, as a foundation, a bill
was sent in to the Grand Jury, and yesterday
afternoon it was returned to Court ignored. As
the only evidence that could legally be given
before the Grand Jury is that which was
elicited from Mr. McAnany at the preliminary
hearing, the publio may experience some diffi
culty in discovering the grounds on which this
bill was so treated. Further comment Is un
necessary. Toe Increase of Insanity. Our high pres
sure civilization has its disadvantages and dan
gers, which it is well not to forget. One is that
the leverish activities it encourages are often
too much for the brain, whose Que structure too
often yields to overwork or undue excitement.
This evil is alarmingly on the Increase, both
here and on the other side of the Atlantic. Last
year the London Medical Times and Gazette
reported that the number ot the insane in Eng
land had increased twenty one per cent, in five
years, while the population had only increased
five per cent. In France the case was still worse.
The number of the insane increased forty per
cent, in five yoars, while the population only
increased two per cent. That is to say, the
French are twice as crazy as the English. Per
haps a Frenchman would retort as Robert Hull
did, when some fool asked him what brought him
to an insane asylum: "What will never bring
you here, sir too much brains." The Pall Mall
Gazette takes up this subject afresh, and con
firms what the Medical Journal had said as to
the alarming increase of insanity. It estimates
that in England mental diseases have gained
on the population to the extent of at least three
per cent, per annum since 1859. The present
ratio of the insane to the population it puts at
one to every four hundred and ten. In the
whole of Great Britain there is the greatest
amount of insanity in England and the least in
It el and, probably because in the former there
is the greatest mental activity and the most high
living. In this country it Is a conceded fact
that insanity has increased considerably in the
last ten years. Nowhere in the world is the
strain on the mental organization greater or
more intense than here, where the work of a
generation Is done in a year.
A Life Insubancb Cask. The Washington
Star says: "Some years ago a man living in
Wheelintr. Virginia, and named Joseph Leppens,
got his life insured, as was said, for the benefit
ot his wife, Josephine Leppens. A short time
passed, when he went down the Ohio river, and
was not heard of for years after, the supposition
folio win that he had been drowned, from the
fact that his coat and the papers belonging to
him were found upon the boat, and a few days
after a dead body was picked up in the river
near the place where he was reported to have
made his disappearance. Some years alter a
friend of the wife received a letter from a man
who signed his name as II. A. Deicher, inquiring
how the wife oi the late Joseph Leppens was
getting along, and whether she bad received the
insurance money due her upon the death of her
husband. The letter was shown Mrs. Leppens,
who, it is said, immediately recognized the
hand writing as that of her husband, and took
the letter to the agents ot the insurance com
pany, who, suspecting a trick, refused to pay
the ten thousand dollars insurance mouey.
8ome time after Leppens came to Washington,
the intelligence of which was conveyed to his
wife, who came on here in pursuit of him, and
found him. The case came up before Justice
Walter on Thursdt-y afternoon, upon a warrant
sued out by the wife, Josephine Leppens,
charging her husband, Joseph Leppens, alias
H. A. Deicher, with having committed adub
tery. After hearing the evidence in the caset
the Justice remanded the accused to Jail to await
a heurlng. Mrs. Leppens lives in Wheeling, Vir
ginia, and has Ave children: while her husband.
Joseph LeppeDs, alias II. A. Deicher. ha for
some time been a clerk In one of the offices of
the Patent Office building."
Tennesbeb EducationA number of gentle,
men in East Tennessee have undertaken to
establish an institution to afford a free normal
education to the sons ot all Tennesseeans who
perished in the Union cause. They have re
cently purchased a school property for the Diir-
pose at Athens, midway between Knoxville and
Chattanooga, valuel at $25,000, and capable of
accommodating inree nuuarea pupus.
Tub 1'afai. B0OOBS8ION. The Oourrler del
Etai Unit finds the recent cable despatch
which names Monslgncur Dupauloup a the
most probable successor of Plus IX "asset in
comprehensible." Oar last news from Rome
did not mention any alarming chsnee in
the Holy Father's health. It is true that the
common people of Rome expect him to die very
soon, but their belief is bused on the old tra
dition that no Pope can hold his office for
twenty-five years until the last days of the
world, and would hardly warrant the Sacred
College in caballing at present for the succes
sion. Besides, the chances of the French pre
late in any event are very slight. The eldest
son of the Church would of course do all he
could for him. But there are quarters in
which Napoleon's Influence is more potent than
in the Sacred College. That body ha got into
the habit of giving its suffrages, firstly, to a
cardinal, and secondly, to an Italian Monslg
ncur. Dupanloup is neither the one nor tho
other. Even it Plus should benevolently give
him the red hat, his unfortunate nativity would
probably be enough to defeat him.
Tub Republican Party. About fifty promi
nent members of the Republican party held a
meeting in Boston on Tuesday, for the purposo
ot consulting with the members oi the Execu
tive Committee of the Massachusetts Recon
struction Association, and also to assist in
devising means for a hearty and efficient co
operation with tbc Republican Congressional
Committee. Among those present wore his
Excellency Governor Bullock, Hon. Henry
Wilson, Hon. James M. S'.one, Dr. George B.
Loring, andjother prominent gentlemen. Gov
ernor Bullock presided, and General Sclieuck
made tbe principal speech. The object ot the
move was to perfect unanimity of action in.
disseminating Republican doctrines amoug tbe
Southern people.
Crete. The fact that the heroic Cretans have
sent off another ship-load of women, children,
and old men docs not seem to indicate that
they have abandoned tbe struggle as hopeless.
We shall probably be informed in a few days
that the. Grecian authorities have officially,
though privately, counselled them to hold on
uutil they can complete the necessary prepara
tions for a bold and decided movement for their
relief. Meanwhile, the cause of the brave
islanders begins to awaken fresh interest in
England, and extensive plans are being arranged
to secure collections and contributions for them.
Tbe end evidently is not yet.
Death of an Irish Frenchman. Mr. Mac
Sheehy, proprietor of the Union, of Paris, died
in that city on the 25th of last month, at the
age of eiehty-four years. As his name indicates,
be was of Irish origin. His family came into
France with James II, when that sovereign
"left his country for," etc. Marshal Mac&Iahon
is connected with this family. Mr. MacSheeby
was wounded at the battle of Leipstc, and
earned his grade of lieutenant-colonel at
Wagiam. At the time of his death he was
chevalier of St. Louis and officer of tbe Legion
of Honor.
Santa Anna The address tbat Santa Anna
was to issue at Vera Cruz is published. He say8
his "mission is one of entire peace, as pacificator
in a distracted family, whose members are de
stroying each other, and will not become recon
ciled. . . . Let us appeal to a decision of a
National Congress, elected freely by the people,
and respect that sovereign will of tbe nation, be
it what it may. Thus order may bo permanently
restored among us, and peace will once more
flourish a peace that Is needed to repair our
many misfortunes."
Sale of Autographs in London. Thirty un
published letters of John Wesley wero recently
sold in London at an auction of manuscripts and
rare books. The collection of which these letters
are a part appears to have been a good one. It
contained specimens of the autotrraphs of Detn
Swift, which are scarce; Cowper, David Hume,
Gorrick, Colman, Washington, Burns, the latter
being the original manuscript of "Scots wha
hae wiWallace bled," besides historical letters
of Charles the First and Second, and Cromwell
despatches.
The Longing of a Traveller. Mr. Hurlburt
seems to have derived a realizing sense of the
inferiority of his countrymen to the inhabitants
of the Continent during his present tour in
France. So he "cannot help longing for some
way of cauterizing our own people out of their
dense ignorance of their own inferiority in a
large range of the most practical applications of
science to life."
Boops. A correspondent of the Springfield
Republican exposes the fallacy of the item going
the rounds of the press, in which it Is asserted
that the time of day can be told by the action
of the pulse on a coin suspended from a string
held between the thumb and finger, causing it
to strike against the sides of a glass tumbler in
a movement like that of a pendulum.
Taxation of National Bank Shares. Tbe
8upreme Court of Iowa has given its opinion on
the question ot taxing naiional bank shares.
The majority opinion, written by Judge Wright,
decides that, as the Legislature now stands,
the shares in the national banks in Iowa
cannot be taxed. The remedy is with the Legis
lature. Comforting. Tbc Boston Posl Is Inclined to
take a cheerful view of things. It says: "The
'social evil' is thought to be on the increase in
Boston. 80, too, is social good. We grow In
all directions. People given to feeling bad about
this matter fhould widen their range a little.
There are fifty saints amoug us to every Mag
dalen." The Social Evil. The last Legislature of
Ohio passed a bill, authorizing Boards of Health
in the large cities to enumerate and record tho
lemale Inmates of disreputable houses, and to
remove and protect those under eighteen years
of age. The Cincinnati Board of Health have
directed such enumeration to be made.
Destroying thb Old Landmarks. A French
paper announces that the Prussian police have
searched the publishing houses of Hanover for
maps in which that country figures as a kintr
dom, and have destroyed all the copper plates of
this class except a few which have been for
warded to Berlin.
