Under the, aot of Conpress, approved July 20,1808, considerable changes were made lu the assessment an 1 col lection of Internal revenue. The services of revenue tirctives were dispensed wl.hj so. too, revenue agents and specials were legislated out ot olliie by that act, and the collection of revenue placed lu the hands ot asses sors and c Elector?, where it had been originally placed until the Let of June 30, 1864, authorized the appointment of innumerable agents, specials aud detectives. The change in the law of July 20, 18G8. legislated out of office iroin this ctty alone not. lesi than fllty detectives, specials, Revenue agents, aud "Assistant Asesors in charge of distilleries." the majority of whom, in fact all of whom, were employed in the detection of fraud upon the Government by mauutactuier-i ot and dealers iu distnled t-pirl's. We plve au illustraMon of the pmciiciil working of the la under the old act. wherein so many detectives were employed, and under the new law, wherein the re-poosibdity is vested iu assessors and collectors. The dis tillery of luonias J. Mtutin & Co. returned last year as follows: January, 10,190 callous, tax, f 20,398-00 February, 2.358 cations, tax, 4 71600 March, 9,495 gallons, tax, 18.9J0 00 lljkinff a total for the three months of $44 104-00 The tax at tbat time was two dollars per gal lon.

Tae ax on 57.2J3 gallous uuoler the no law, ul 60 reals per gallon, apd 10 cents lor encn barrel pro luced, and $2 lor very 20 bushels, grain niabbed, is about $il,236 00. Another case In illustration is the distillery now run by Niemau, 'cl'rtber & Glenn. Uud-r the old act thl3 dis' tilery averaged about one thousand gallons per mou b. Thiy bey a a operations on toe 7'h of Octooer, ami iurin-r the month produced 11,811 gxll-ius of silrrs. Ua W the old law, at $2 lax p r gal. oo, tue distillery paid $2(100. It la no pamg, at the reciucod rate ol 60 cents ou th t-allon, over $6000 per month. Tue-e distilleries are hoth looute.l in the F1rt district. A week ago there were some eix or seven in operation in that district, but owug to the low once nt which Nev York city made whisky is t-elliui; iu this ctty, they have all stepped running.
