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.

The Conlonllsrcille Railroad Question.
Tho two billA to. before the Legislature,
relative to this road—ono repealing the char
ter of the present Connollivillc Railroad Com
pany, so far as 1.11 , ) pris-ilogo of es..er.ding it
east of C01.015V1:14 is COB!,:ftlf, ; and the
other incorporatteg anew company with power
to construct a read from Cunnelleville to the
Maryland State line, and from any point on
i said line to corl.: with any road in the Sue
quehanna Valley—have already been pub
lished in our columns. The editor of the
Chamberbburg Repository, (A. K. McClure,
Esq.,) who Is a corporator of the new compa
ny, says : ''lt would doubtless make the
junction with the Cumberland Valley road at
this point, and thus make the Pittsburgh and
Connellsrille a direct feeder to the commerce
of our own State, instead of leaving the
wealth of south western PUnnsylvonia to Bel-
The Somerset Lterdtd, after quoting the
aboveestract, says: "In this than. paragraph,
is contained tho kernel of the controversy be
tween the frientit of the nose bill, and the
present directory of tiso Connellawille road.
On the oce hand it it alleged that the Penna.
[toad Is at the bottom of the new scheme,
which Is designed to make the Conan/Bovine a
• feeder' Instead of a rival to her; while on
1 the other hand, it Is at stoutly maintained
that the interest of the Baltimore and Ohlo
Road inilaeoces the other party, with the
object of leading the r wealth of Southwestern
Pounsylvanie to Baltimore.'"
The Iltrald then gees on le argue that it io
the 'Edema of the people of Bedford, Sotner
let,,Payette, nod adjoining counties, to take
no Tar. In the contwrersey, but endeavor to
teeoneile the differences, and to have both
Ltrejects carded out, I:1 for as the building
I . the road is concerned, leaving the laws of
'ado and competition to determine whether

'lore and Ohio, or toe Pennsylvania Cen
roads will be most tomcatted thereby.
