The Intelligencer pub. lishes tbe following this morning, as a despatoh from JXew York: "It will be recollected that General Scbenck stated In tbe House last week that there were twenty-five million gallons of distilled spirits In bond In the country, which the new tax bill taxed at 50 cents per gallon. and that the spirits to be manufactured here after would pay in different ways 00 cents per fallen. Whereupon the House added M per barrel or 10 cents per gallon on the bonded gcods, thus leaving a difference of 30 cents per gallon between that in bond and that hereafter to be made. Rumor says the causo of this disadvantage being given to present holders Is thus explained' John Dunlevy, of Ohio, an Intimate friend of Scbenck, and Jobn Tracey, a whisky dealer In this city, were employed by tbe Ways and Means Committee to assist in drafting a new bill. These two, with S. M. Pike, a relative of Schenck, and Gordon Fellows and McMillan were said to have purchased Immense qnantl. ties of the bonded spirits before tbe favoring clause In the new bill was made public. In fact to have bought all for sale In this city, Philadelphia, and with other confederates in Cincinnati. If the Senate does not make tbo tax on what these parties have purchased eqiul to tbut here after to be made, they will realize an immense profit.
