Looking to the restoration of the Fed
eral authority wherever it has. been
overthrown, and to the large immigra
tion that will probably ensue, your
Memorialists, in this connection, bog
your Honorable Bodies to consider,
whether the beveiage that will inevitably
bedhtrodu'ced among the laborer&"of the
South, shall ba that- wbicb-renews the
strength without impairing, the morals,
or that which almost in variably produces
theoppositeresults.
, It cannot bethepolicy of.our Govern,
ment to oppress the business in which
ypnriiporiaUsta.are engaged, by continu
inga.'higber tar upon it, than exists in
any, otjter part of the world, and thua to
encoujcage the aototitmion of whisky foe
.teor,'*as the .common beverage of the
laboring classes. The Commissioner of
! Revenue favors.a small duty upon do
mestic wines, much smaller relatively
than is spirituous liquors. The time
may come, when. cheap and innoxious
wines will de produced in large quantities
inthe, United States, .but it is at least
uncertain. Beer is, in (act, a wine made
. of ~mcli instead.pt grapes; and its tonic
aftd ,nntrimental properties are well
inoWn and recognized. Its manufac
ture ig this country is yet in its infancy,
and nothing can prevent its growth more
certainly .than injudicious tarnation.
Concurring, aa . your memorialists
do, in the view of the Commissioner
in relation tp a How duty oa wine,
they,. epapot, perceive why. it, may
not be,applied with equal if not greater
force tp fermented mail beverges.
v Ytjur, memorialists ask no special leg
islation for the protection of their busi
ness, End do nod desire to ovade-fhe pay
ment of,their full and ju9t proportioc of
taxes to the Government, bnt they do
respectfully ask that the duty on malt
liquors 'may be fixed at a rate that will
not destroy their manufacture or lead to
their adulteration. • The .imposition of a
tax on malt would tend to the latter re
sult,, and w°uld certainly encoarage
frauds upon the The, fairest
und, most,productive mode of laying the
duty, is,on,the beer itself, and if that is
Srly adjusted, the manufacture will
y Increase, and will in time, be
come one of tho most fruitful and cer
jjpin sources of income to the Govern
ment-,
: Your memorialists there fore pray that
your honorable bodies may so adjust the
duty on fermented malt beverages, that
it may hot exceed the snm of fifty cents
per, barrel of thirty one.galions.
memorialists will ever pray, ,

The Hew Fractional Currency,
We understand that the new cttrren
cy'is rehdy for distribution, and our
leaders'can obtain a by ah early
application at the Custom House: The
fifty cent notes are an Inch and & half
wide,, and three and a half inches long.
In general appearance these notes are
not Unlike a large portion of the bank
issues in circulation. The twenly-flve
cent notes are shorter than the fifties,
while the tens and fives are relatively
still shorter. The Issue of paper cur
rency has advanced with giant strides
since its inception in ti^e. fifteeeth cen
tury. If we are to credit the lamented
Washington Irwin, the first instance of
paper having been used as a substitute
for money occurred during the war
waged by Ferdinand and Isabella against
the Moorish Kingdom. In his history
of the conquest of that kingdom, he
states—. That the Count of Tendilla,
commanding the important fortress and
town of Alhama, being closely pressed
by the Moors and destitute of gold and
silver to pay the wages of his troops,
the soldiers murmured greatly (oven as
they now do) seeing that they had not
the means of purchasing necessaries
ffOm the people of the town. In this di
lemma what does this moat sagacious
commander. He tabes a number of lit
tle slips of paper and inscribes on them
various sums large and small according
to the nature of the case, and signs them
with his own hand (not after the manner
of Mir. Fessenden) and name. These
he gave to the soldiers in earnest of
their pay.
The good Count then issued a procla
mation (a la Lincoln) ordering the in
habitants to take these morsels of paper
for the full amount thereon inscribed,
promising to redeem them at a future
time with silver and gold, and threat -
ening severe punishment to all who re
fused. We are glad to say that the
Count kept his word and made good his
currency. Will the fathers of the pres
ent and past issues imitate his honesty.
Although Irwin in his statement pre
tends to quote from his mythical author
ity, the worthy Fray Antonio Agapida,
the statement is true.
Democratic Party and Slavery
The New York “ World " in discussing
this question says:
"The Democratic party has alvtapt
been opposed to slavery; bnt it has al-
I ways had senjp to distinguish and dis
criminate between diffefent kinds of
slavery, and to assign to each its proper
I rank and subordination in the scale of
moral wrong. Slavery may eonsist in
the subjection of one individual man
to another individual man, which is the
lesser form; or it may consist in the sub
jection of a collective community to
[ another collective community, which is'
the greater atjd worse form. Our revo
lutionary forefathers fought against the
one kind of slavery whtte they tolerated
the other. When they took up arms
against Great Britain domestic slavery
existed -in all the colonies; but they
rdeemed it of paramont importance to
achieve their freedom as communities,
find postponed the mitigation and re
moval of domestic slavery to a more
convenieni season.
I It conforms to the general sense of
I mankind that the freedom of communi-
I ties is oi infinitely more consequence
I than the freedom of individuals. The
1- sympathies of every manly and generous
I soul in Christendom have been freely
given for a century to subjugated Po
land; white either a tepid interest or no
interest at all, has been manifested in
the fate of the Russian serfs, more
numorous, more degraded, but, in the
estimation of mankind, by far less op
pressed. The superiority of the rights
of communities to the rights of individ
! rials is the constant lesson of history,
sanctioned by nniversal comm on sense.
It is only on this principle that men are
forced, into the army by compulsory
drafts, and sent to meet their death. The
freedom, and even the life, of the individ
ual is always relentlessly sacrificed to
the presumed good of the community.
What Sherman will Gain at Savannah.
The Richmond press having adr.itted
the apeedy fallgtf Savannah; what Gen.
Sherman will gain by its capture is al
ready a subject of conjecture. A large
amount of war material bas been col
lecting at that point ever since the re
bellion broke opt. Fort McAllister
mounted twenty-one heavy guns at the
time it was etoimed and taken by
Sazan’a §figade. Forts Lawton and
Lee, on the Savannah river, have an
armament, in the aggregate, scarcely
less than McAllister. I'ort Jackson, on
the same river, two miles below the
city, has not less than thirty guns of
heavy calibre. The ram Georgia, a
heavy iron plated vessel lies grounded
below the city, with her six guns in po
sition. Probably half a dozen other
works—mounting in the aggregabs,
twenty-four guns—ore on either bank
Of the river.
In addition to these, he will have
Gen. Mardee, end his army, with all its
field artillery; together with the guns,
'mounted for the defense of the city, on
the and north west sides. At a
iow estimate, Sherman and Dahlgren
wiUAaye one hundred, and sixty guns,
when they foke possession of the place.

On the contrary, the records show that

Mr. Editor— On Thursday last
there wa9 a publie meeting held
at the Board oi Trade Rooms
in this city, the ohj.-et of which
was to concentrate public attention to
ward the 7-30 loan. The attendance
was not large but we are informed was
very Interesting. It came out that
Mr. James O’Connor, President ot the
Fourth National Bank has been to
Washington, and had a conversation
With Mr. Fessenden, Secretary of the
Treasury, upon the financial condition
of the country. The Secretary inform
ed him among other things that the
Government was hard up and wanted
about $91,000,000 chiefly for the soldiers
who have not been paid for two months.
Mr. O’Connor, President of the Fourth
National Bank, is one of the most suc
cessiul financiers in this city,and is just
the man to lead off in an enterprise of
this kind. His energy and probity are
too weit known to admit of a doubt
that this most favorite security of Gov
ernment wilinot be taken at once. *
B6ware of Haw Pork.
A few dayß since we observed a
bulgher tasting some raw sausage meat
in his shop, and the act was immediate
ly associated in our mind with a sinau
lar looking boule which Dr. Hallett, of
Brooklyn, has standing on Jhe table in
his office. When we first saw this bottle
we supposed it contained strips of some
white bark very nicely prepared. But
Dr. Hallett informed us that it was a
tape worm, which he had recently taken
from the bowels of a man who had con
tracted it by eating raw poik in Califor
nia.
The old readers of the ScientiUcale
American will remember that the origin
of tape worms in raw pork was pointed
out in the pamphlet of Dr Weinland.
fortunately, the tape worm is very
rare, but when it doe? occur, it is caus
ed by eating raw pork.— Scientific A-mir
iean.
The Oxford (Maine) Democrat says
Lhefirßt tape manufacture in this coun
try was made at North Monmouth, in
that State, by an Englishman, who save
the idea of a loom to VTankce mechan
ic, which he made aniffput into opera
tion. From this, twmJarge factories are
now in operation in Unit "village, mak
ing tape and webbing,-'
Beignoli, the TeitiJfj who was hissed
at Madrid, has decided suc
cess in Paris. They say he is the next
best ginger to Mario, apd, what is cer
tainly a marked imprasement, that he
shows cOMiderabJe/"'dramatic ability.
Here nobody suapectcd him cf having
iguchAbility' though everyb-riv admired
*. A decision was rendered on Tuesday
in i he Supreme. Court of the District of
Columbia, by Judge Wytle, In the case
of Col. Baker, upon the indictment for
the afrest of Dr. Gwynne. The Court
decided that neither the order of the
Secretary of War or Secretary of the
Treasury would be justification to the
defendant. l.f this decision is sustained
all the arrests of civilians heretofore
made will be the subject of indictment.
The Florida Affair —The English
press, though industriously nursing the
wrath of Brazil about the Florida affair,
Is not likely to make much out of it. In
telligence from Rio Janeiro to the 9th
represents that the affair will undoubt
edly be amicably settled, and Minister
Webb’9 letter was entirely satisfactory.
A more significant fact is the dismissal
from office of President Gomez, of Bahia,
probably because of his manifest leaning
to the r,hel cause.
“Professor Look," formerly of Troy,
N. Y., was lately detected as a spy In
the service of Gen. Braxton Bragg.
He was arrested within the lines of the
Army of the Tennessee, shortly after
the battle of Murfreesboro, while in the
act of taking plans of fortifications,
guns, and magazines in the vicinity.
Upon being searched, plans were found
in his stockingß. He was put under
guard to await trial, and while attempt-'
ing to escape quite recently, he was shot
dead by the sentinel.
The Elmira (N. V.) Advtrtizer no
tlces a lecture delivered in that place
lately by Miss Anna Dickenson, the
strong-minded pet of Shoddyism. Says
that paper: “We coaid not help feel
ing that the address of Anna was not in
good taste for a lady before a public au
dience. Certainly we do not think that
a man of true and native modesty
would thu3 have made up a lecture."
It further states that Anna boldly dis
cussed topics “tabooed by mutual con
sent in all socia intercourse between re
fined and intelligent men and women."
