EattsTriella ilot Amami the /madam The Whiskey Tax In a Nutshell The various communications that hate ap peased from time to time, in the newspapers in opposition to the law taxing whiskey on hand, which had already been taxed, do not piece the subject fairly before the publio. Coo-rens had already laid a duty op the manutaotcre, which duty had been paid, but finding it would be necessary to lay a higher duty hereafter, it was proposed to put an ad ditional dory on the quantity on hen d, already taxed, so that the tax, which ultimately is paid by the consumer, should be far the bene fit of the Treasury and not for the holder or speculator. Now it cannot be denied that the leaders in the speculation were those whose pursuits Were not commercial in any tray, and some of gem aro said to have been unscrupulous poll- Meant; those who can go hand and hand when money is to be made, although of opposite parties. This latter olnea, probably knowing. the views of the Government, took the lead in the speculation and thus induced the distillers to manufacture largely, hoping 'to avoid the increased tax, Fernando Wood, who saw the imperfection of the bill as reported, being die interested, and . feeling unwilling to legislate. for speculators, proposed that such a duty shouldbe hid on the stock on hand as would be just to the consumer and the country, which the Rouse of Representatives agreed to by a barge majority. Had the House agreed to take the duty entirely off the manufacture of whiskey:lt could not have produced a greatir consternation than this did among the spans latent; they complained of injustice, but others could not see it, although I admit that it would have been unjust to them hid the duty on the manufacture boors reduced while they had a stock on hand; but why: they should complain that Congress would not leg islets money into' their pockets which belong ed to the Treasury, I cannot understand; neither can I account for the turnabout in the rote, unless the doings at Albany and Har riabarg have , been transferred to Washing ton, and if so God ease the country. As to the twaddle about taxing things twice, the the materials of which my carriage ' made have been taxed several times, and raw I am taxed annually for using it, which is suffiamat to show its absurdity.
