It was reiolved, therefore, that a dpn.

who had called on him he had resolv

affectionate and touching address he
had just received, so generous a gift,

.ANEW THICK. .. ,
The ingenuity of parties engaged ip
the practice of defrauding the Govern
ment through the evasion of tha pay
ment of the tax on whiskey seems to
be inexhaustible. The latest device
has just boen exposed through the ef
forts of Colonel Hunt, Supervisor ;of
Iaternal Revenue iur the Ohio and
Indiana district, and consists in using
barrels which are manufactured with
the two staves opposite the bung about
twice as thick as the rest. By this
arrangement, the gauger who, inner,
ing the gauge through the bung.would
Btrike the thick staves, and supposing
the others to be of the same thickness,
woud gauge less by three or four gal
lons than the barrel actually contain
ed. ' Colonel Hunt made a seizure of
four hundred barrels of that descrip
tion last week at Lafayette, Indiana,
in the establishment where they were
manufactured. The coopers protested
their innocence of any intent to de
fraud the Government, claiisiug that
tbey were making the barrels strictly
jfl accordance wit! their orders, and
supposed that the thick' stave) were
put in simply to strengthen the bar
rels -a vie v of the matter which the
Supervisor could not be induced to ac
cept. i ajr i : i
A strapping big stranger entered a
store on Woodward avenue yesterday,
and leaning too heavily on the show
case broke one of the panes of glass.
"That will coBt you J2," eaid the
proprietor. .
"Ilayerj't got the' money," replied
the stranger. .
"Well, you can't go out of the store
until you pay for that glass," said the
storekeeper in a determined voice,
'I'a sorry, hut I'm willing to bo
licked, if that will do you any good,"
replied the stranger,' rapidly getting
out of two coats and a vest and show
ing arms like joints of stove-pips. .
. "Oh, I guess it was purely acciden
tal," said the shop-keeper in aq al
tered voice, as he got behind the coun
ter in a hurry, "and you needn't mind
about waiting around here any longer.
Here's a car ticket if you are going
