remember that on the 11th of last January a

moval of liquor for any purpose until after tbe
tax had been Dalit,
This law operated harshly iu about a doien
caier upon parties who bad contracts made
under the old lysteta for tbe exportation of
liquor, ine quantity oi spirits exported from
the United Mates is not very great, but what
smalt Quantity there Is is principally from Boi
ton, New York, and Baltimore. From Boston
rum amounting to almost one million dollars
is taken to th coast of Afilea, whit alcohol is
taken out from New York and Baltimore
frinclpally for a market In the Mediterranean
t Is to allow son ot these exports to be made
from these points that the bill Is now proposed,
for without this bill the liquor could not be sent
abroad. la the bill ill chance for fraud la
guarded against, because the parties ar obliged
to make proof of tbe fact of distillation before
tbe bill re eating bonded warehouses wai
passed, and the liquor must be exported within
thirty Jays
