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.
