Tbe Present Status or Feniaxism
ix the United States.—At present
the brotherhood of the United Status,
with the exception of thirty or forty
circles, recognize but one head, and that
is President Wnt. R. Roberts. Over
7iO circles recognize bis authority, and
ere the Ist of March 1.000 circles of the
Fenian organization will be in operation
in America. The State of New York
has already 100 circles in good stand
ing, working actively and quietly;
Pennsylvania, about the same number;
Ohio has 45; Illinois, 75; Michigan,
36, and the other States ol the Union an
equal proportion, who are laboring for
the same end. The circles are arming
quietly and without ostentation or any
publicity, and uniforms are being pro
vided for the members of the organiza
tion in thousands. The brotherhood tins
the most unanimous confidence and de
pendence on toe promises of President
Roberts, chiefly owing to the lact that he
is, as a prominent Fenian said a few
days ago, “rich enough to be honest.”
Subscriptions are being received daily,
and tbe amount of business transacted
daily is almost wonderful. The Fenians
of San Francisco, Cal., have just sent
$4 ,000 in gold dust to the headquarters
in Broadway, and also sent intimations
that more was coming soon.
The Fenians of Idaho City also ex
pressed a box to President Roberts con
taining $4,000 in gold dust,accompanied
by a letter expressing confidence in bis
patriotism and confessing themselves
satisfied and confident of the success of
his plans against the British Govern
ment. Every day that passes brings
with it a recognition of the authority of
the senate of the Fenian brotherhood
and nearly all Stephens’ adherents are
deserting him and joining Roberts,
turning over tbe moneys and books of
their circles.—A r . 37 Tribune.
Whex and Wbebe Does the Day
Begin ?—As we travel eastward the day
begins earlier; near the equator star
light appears an hour earlier for each
thorn ani miles going east. When it is
sunrise in New York, the people of
Europe have had sunlight for many
lours, an l the Californians are atill in
their beds dreaming. Evidently the day
has a first beginning, and at the east
ward. But how far and where? What
are the people who first see the light of
Monday morning ?
It is the sun which brings the day:
where doeshe first bring Monday ? If
we could travel with him we might
find out. Let us suppose the case. We
will take an early start; at sunlight on
Sunday morning, with the sun just at
the point of peeping over the horizon
behind us, we travel westward. As we
go, the people give us a Sunday greet
ing ; We bring Sunday with us to Pitts
burg, St. Louis, Salt Lake and Sanfran
cisco. At San Francisco our faithful
chronometer informs us that we have
been oa the tramp abont fire hours,
but we started on Sunday morning and
it is Sunday morning still. We go on,
still on Sunday morning. Will this
Sunday morning ever end ? The quiet
Pacific knows very little of Sunday or
any other day, and our question scarcely
receives an echo for reply. When we
get to Yokahama in Japan, or Shang
hai in China, we search for some Yan
kee, wide awake in the early morning,
and we are told for the first time that
Monday has come. Everywhere we now
bring Monday, and in twenty four hours
by the chronometer after starting, we
are in New York again, and find the
merchants taking down their shutters,
and the Monday newspapers telling us
wbat has happened during our ab
sence.—Scientific American.
How to Cheat the Government
Out of the WlnsKY Tax.— The follow
ing will illustrate how rapidly a fraud
can be committed through this medium*
Suppose a distiller in the West desires
to send 4 000 barrels of whiskey to this
(New York) city ; he lias only to give
the collector of his district a transporta
tion bond, say of 1,000 barrels. Upon
this a permit to ship 1,000 barrels is
issued. Now, under ths permit he will
ship four lots of 1,000 barrels each—
each lot corresponding in marks, num
bers, etc. One lot he will ship via Bal
timore, one via Philadelphia, one lot via
the Erie Railroad, and the other via the
New York Central Railroad. The four
lots are by these means kept separate,
and in the event of the seizure ot either
lot, the production of the permit will at
once insure its release, unless the sev
eral corresponding lots could be traced,
which would be purely accidental, they
being hundreds of miles apart. This,
however, is but one way to perpetrate
fraud through this medium. After
whiskey has been placed in bond it may
be withdrawn by redistillation, rectifica
tion, for change of package, lor export
and transhipment, and under these va
rious pretences thousands of barrels aro
covered up and lost sight of.
This excellent and ingenion* plan o(
* cheating the Government was reported
to Congress by the select committee on
internal revenue frauds, which commit
tee recommends that stills be taxed in
proportion to their capacity, whether
much or little whisky be made.
