WEEKLY IM GAZ ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA: FRIDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1879. NEWS FROM NEW HAVEN. Now that the table grape, the wine grape, the raisin grape, the English walnut, the almond and the orange has each had its season for planting extensively in California, and each has failed to come up to the expectation of its advocates because of some disease, destructive insect, fitness for very limited areas of soil or climate, or high expense in preparing the product for the market, the olive seems likely to have its turn. It can apparently be successfully cultivated there, and already a Santa Barbara man has 6,000 trees, some of them seven years old, and these produce twenty gallons of berries each on an average in a good year, and one gallon of oil is obtained from seven of berries. Trees ten years old in a good soil will average fifty gallons of berries in a good year, but sometimes will yield one hundred and fifty gallons. After a good crop the tree usually takes a year's rest, so that its good years alternate. The yield from a mature orchard may be set down at two hundred gallons of oil to this acre, and of this fifty gallons may be deducted to pay for gathering the berries and making marketing the oil. A friend in San Francisco sends us the above paragraph, which is taken from a New Haven paper, and says: Such ignorance of the agricultural condition of our State as that shown by our eastern brother would be simply laughable were it not for the mischief—in the way of discouraging immigration and the like—wrought thereby. Give it to him good and strong. As Clara Morris said to her husband the other day, referring to some fellow who had been "mashing" her, "Hit him twice, Freddy." It is hardly credible that, after all that has been written and published on the subject, there should be such great ignorance of the A Good Time Coming. In many parts of the United States the good time has already come. Private advice from leading manufacturers and business men along the Atlantic seaboard, not only speak hopefully of the future, but grandly of the present. New York merchants have not been so busy in years as they have during the past few weeks. The same is true of the merchants in Boston, Philadelphia and other leading cities, both East and West. The manufacturing establishments of New England and middle States are being run as they have not been run before since the war. Europe is clamoring at the door of the granaries of the great West for wheat and pork and other articles of food, for which she stands ready to pay good prices in gold coin. Railroads are creaking under the heavy demands for the transportation of produce from the agricultural districts of the West to the Eastern seaboard. A dozen steamers left New York today loaded down to the guards with food supplies for the needy in Great Britain, France and Germany. These steamers will meet other steamers coming this way with tons of gold with which to pay for what we are sending abroad. In addition, scores of sailing vessels are busily engaged in taking aboard wheat, petroleum, tobacco, cotton and other products at New York, Boston, Baltimore and Philadelphia for London, Liverpool, Havre, Bremen, Antwerp and other European ports. Such an active condition of the export trade has not been known for years. Even such distant ports as San Francisco and Portland are contributing liberally to swell the volume. Thirteen wheat cargoes have left this port this week for Europe. — S. F. Bulletin. All the signs point to the fact that a great deal of time will be given to the discussion of land monopoly by the next Legislature. Correspondence Westminster Items. Mr. Geo. Crittenden and family left us this week for Santa Clara county, W. Clark accompanying them as far as San Luis Obispo. Rev. Wood, the Adventist preacher, has erected his tent near Stearnart's store. We do not hear of crowded audiences yet. Taylor & McCoy left on Wednesday for the new Cerritos colony near Wilmington, to bore a well for Mr. Teel. Reva. Strong and Compton left for the Synod in Oakland this week, to be absent two weeks. We have not heard who will supply the latter gentleman's place during his absence. The Presbyterian Social came off as announced Tuesday evening. Owing to other attractions the attendance was not large, but a pleasant evening was passed. Asa Hansler has become a Benedict, the bride being a fair Canadian. We wish them all happiness, health and prosperity. They are now in Canada, but expect to visit here shortly—to settle, we hope. Herding hogs three miles off on the plains from 3 A.M. to 9 P.M., and occasionally watching them alone all night, is pretty sharp work on a little fellow of 10 years. We know a boy who has to do it. "Mr. and Mrs. John Mack were most agreeably surprised on Saturday evening, Sept. 27th by the arrival of a number of friends to celebrate their tenth anniversary, the party having been gotten up without their knowledge. After a very pleasant evening spent they were left very grateful recipients of a nice supply of tin, for which those good horses wheeled alike a slow stream of the village at The horse got out." A friend in San Francisco sends us the above paragraph, which is taken from a New Haven paper, and says: Such ignorance of the agricultural condition of our State as that shown by our eastern brother would be simply laughable were it not for the mischief—in the way of discouraging immigration and the like—wrought thereby. Give it to him good and strong. As Chara Morris said to her husband the other day, referring to some fellow who had been "mashing" her, "Hit him twice, Fredy." It is hardly credible that, after all that has been written and published on the subject, there should be such great ignorance of the agricultural and horticultural condition here among eastern people as is implied in the first paragraph of the above newspaper extract. There is little doubt that the most effective way of conveying proper information to such people as this New Haven editor would be to knock it in with a club, a proceeding which we are compelled by considerations of "space" to omit. The table grape, the wine grape, the raisin grape, the English walnut and the orange grow as freely in Southern California as do weeds in New Hampshire. Grapes have to contend with no disease or destructive insect, and wine-making is just now the most promising industry in California. Nor is the area fitted for grape culture at all limited. There are thousands of acres of land around Anaheim which is first-class vineyard land, and will produce grapes of a size and flavor unequaled in any part of the world. We have in our mind now a vineyard near Anaheim (Mr. Burdoff's) which from the day it was planted has never had a drop of water artificially applied, and which in vigor and thrift has no superior in any land. There are hundreds, yea thousands of acres of land equally as good for grape culture, and which only await the occupancy of the thrifty, industrious husbandman to become a veritable garden. The same soil that is fit for grapes is equally good for oranges. Orange culture is a pleasant and profitable pursuit, the only drawback being the lengthy period of waiting from the time the trees are planted until they reach a bearing age. The insects which in some localities prey upon orange trees are only regarded as annoyances. Prompt and proper treatment prevents the pests from inflicting serious injury. We hope our New Haven brother will mention these facts and make the proper amende. There has of late been a marked decrease in the volume of silver circulated in the State. The scarcity of silver half dollars has been commented upon by many of our business men. The fact is thus explained by the San Francisco Bulletin of the 27th ult.: The singular financial fact was developed yesterday that half dollars have reached a premium of $4 per cent. These coins short time ago were at a discount of 6 @ 7 per cent. Meanwhile, silver bullion has not advanced. The explanation of the rise in value is the operation of the bill making these coins convertible at the Sub-Treasury into gold or paper at the option of the government. But too large an amount has been thus disposed of. The consequence is a sending abroad. In addition, some sailing vessels are basically engaged in taking aboard wheat, petroleum, tobacco, cotton and other products at New York, Boston, Baltimore and Philadelphia for London, Liverpool, Havre, Bremen, Antwerp and other European ports. Such an active condition of the export trade has not been known for years. Even such distant ports as San Francisco and Portland are contributing liberally to swell the volume. Thirteen wheat cargoes have left this port this week for Europe. S. F. Bulletin. All the signs point to the fact that a great deal of time will be given to the discussion of land monopoly by the next Legislature. It is already known that the following amendment will be proposed: The Legislature of the State of California at its twenty-third session proposed the following amendment to the Constitution said State. Amend Article seventeen of said Constitution by adding thereto the following: "Section 4. After the first day of January, 1881, no person shall become by purchase the owner of more than 190 acres of land. If, after said day, any person shall by gift, grant will, heirship, or in payment of a just debt, become the owner of more than 160 acres of land, he or she shall have five years, after his or her right to the possession thereof shall have occurred, in which to dispose of the surplus. The Legislature shall enforce this Section by proper laws providing for the sale and transfer by the State of any and all lands held contrary thereto. It is further said that bills will be introduced providing for a graduated system of taxation on large landed estates, and that all property shall be divided among all the heirs alike, regardless of age, sex or condition. What European editors don't know about the political situation in this country would nil a volume. Witness the following: New York; Sept. 29. — The London Saturday Review announces that "the new Governor of California, who was formerly a Baptist minister, probably profited by the outrageous attempt of one of his opponents to murder him on the evening of his election, but it is satisfactory to find that the more respectable of the two regular parties still controls the State." The Paris Figaro commenting on the recent affairs in San Francisco, says: "Political struggles had brought into antagonism Rev. Kalloch, candidate of the Workingmen's Party at the next elections and Mr. De Young, editor of the Chronicle, who supported Mr. Bilks, candidate of the Republican Party." At the session for the Advancement of Science, held at Saratoga on the 1st inst., P. W. Shaeffer of Pennsylvania read a paper on the anthracite coal fields of that State. He said that mining began in 1820 with 365 tons, and the product now marketed is about 2000,000 tons annually. The yearly product is about 50,000,000,000 which 30,000,000 are wasted. It is estimated that in 186 years, or in the year 2,005, the anthracite fields will be exhausted. "This will give the Black Star, Santa Clara and other coal mines of Los Angeles county an opportunity to come out strong and supply the world's hungry market. May we be there to see the blessed day. PROFESSOR GENNERT, in a letter to a gen- October comes in with weather balmy and delightful, but for a week past the skies have been overcast, the nights cold, and every appearance that would indicate an approaching rain storm. One gentleman was so confident as to carry in his fruit that was in process of drying, and make sundry other preparations, forgetting that he was in California "where all signs fail in a dry time." Our worthy board of school directors at the commencement of the school year consolidated the primary and intermediate departments and reduced the number of teachers to two; and being on dire economy bent, not only reduced the number of teachers, but bride being a fair Canadian. We wish them all happiness, health and prosperity. They are now in Canada, but expect to visit here shortly—to settle, we hope. Herding three miles off on the plains from 3 A.M. to 9 P.M., and occasionally watching them alone all night, is pretty sharp work on a little fellow of 10 years. We know a boy who has to do it. "Mr. and Mrs. John Mack were most agreeably surprised at Saturday evening, Sept. 27th by the arrival of a number of friends to celebrate their tenth anniversary; they party having been gotten up without their knowledge. After a very pleasant evening spent they were left the very grateful recipients of a nice supply of tin, for which those good friends, and others who kindly remembered them though not present on that evening, will please accept many thanks, and their sincere wishes that they may enjoy many as pleasant anniversaries. "The Congregational Fair continued Thursday during the day and evening, and passed off quite as pleasantly as the day before. The fruit, consisting of apples, pears, peaches, quinces, tomatoes, figs, chestnuts, almonds and grapes was of such rare beauty, excellence and size that it was a difficult task for the committee to decide which was the handsomest collection,and finally agreed upon two as superior to the others. Prize No. 1 was awarded to Daniel Griswold; No. 2 to S. Lyman. A handsome basket was sent by Dr. Gregory and a larger variety of apples than any by Dr. Cowan of Anheim. There was also a fine display of fruit from Mr. Strong's nursery which was not entered for competition. The prizes were awarded for butter,the committee not being able to determine which was best.to Mrs. John Beckett and Mrs. Jesse Bowley.The prize on cake was awarded to Nellie Lawson.on flour bread to Hattie Clark.on brown bread to Mary Aldrich.A few things deserve special notice as attracting much attention.A case of ancient coins by W.F.Marquiz; a case of stiffed birds,birds nests and eggs,tastefully arranged by A.L.Taylor.A case of new style Fall hats and trimmings by Mrs. Flora Brownof Anheim;every lady wished she had the money to buy one.A child's suit by Mrs.Walesof Anheim.An ancient quilt by Mrs.Wm.Porter.A crib quilt and pillow sham,(very much admired),the work of Miss Hartungof Anheim.A two home-made rugs by Mrs.Townsend.A corner devoted to millineryby Mrs.D Vero Of Westminster was very beautifully arranged and gave decided proof of that lady's skill and taste in her business.通过 your columns the ladies wish to tender their thanks to those who so kindly lent their beautiful articles of handiwork for exhibition,rendering this Fair so attractive and leaving so pleasant a memory in the minds of all."

Redisсия THERE is no need of disguising the fact that from the 1st day of January at noon, until the first Monday in January (which is the 5th) the State of California will be actually without a government of any kind. The new Constitution goes into effect on January 1st, but the officers elected under it do not take their seats until the 5th, four days later. The present officers cannot hold over until the 5th, because the old Constitution dies at noon on January 1st, and the office-holders die (officially) with it. But it is safe to say that things will wag on in their accustomed way during the four days of absolute freedom from all government. This is "a government of the people," and the great common sense of the masses will check and restrain any turbulent spirits who might be disposed to take advantage of the situation. This is an opinion from the Los Angeles Express: "The re-election of Grant would be a signal of rejoicing to every corrupt politician, every unprincipled office-holder, every crooked whiskey sharper, every Black Friday gambler, and every bloated wretch who had enriched himself on spoils wrung from the people. But to the toiling masses—to the men who follow honest pursuits and who must pay for all this wrong-doing—it would be a calamity less endurable than war, famine or pestilence." PROFESSOR GENNERT, in a letter to a gentleman in Los Angeles, says that if the people of this county will furnish money enough to put up the buildings for a beet sugarie, and buy the seed and planting machinery, he will go to Europe and secure the necessary machinery on credit. Such a proposition is fair, and the moneyed men of the county should accept it if they believe that the business would be successful here. The Southern Pacific Railroad Company has decided to rent its lands in the Tulare Valley to settlers this year on the same terms as last year—ten per cent. on the graded price, the land to be rented from Oct. 15 this year to the same date next year. A despatch was received at Omaha on Wednesday morning announcing that three companies of cavalry were attacked at Milk River by several hundred Ute Indians. Maj. Thornberg, commanding officer, was killed, together with forty officers and men. The balance of the soldiers were corralled by the Indians, and reinforcements are being sent to relieve them. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 29.—In the well-known case of Sprague, convicted of the murder of More, in Ventura county, and sentenced to be hanged, execution of which sentence was deferred pending an appeal, the Supreme Court to-day denied the motion for a rehearing and remanded the cause with directions to the Court below to fix a day for carrying the judgment into execution. COLTON, Sept. 29.—Two boys, aged ten and four years respectively, sons of Mrs. Poole, who lives on a ranch near this place, were playing with a pet yearling call this morning, when the elder threw a riata and caught the younger around the ankle and then in a spirit of mischief tied the riata to the animal's tail. The calf becoming frightened ran and dragged the little fellow several times around an enclosure, injuring him so severely that he died a few hours after. W. Sauerder of Pennsylvania rented a poppy in the archacite coal fields of that State. He said that mining began in 1820 with 365 tons, and the product now marketed is about 20,000,000 tons annually. The yearly product is about 50,000,000, of which 30,000,000 are wasted. It is estimated that in 186 years, or in the year 2,065, the anthracite fields will be exhausted. This will give the Black Star, Santa Clara and other coal mines of Los Angeles county an opportunity to come out strong and supply the world's hungry market. May we be there to see the blessed day. Our worthy board of school directors at the commencement of the school year consolidated the primary and intermediate departments and reduced the number of teachers to two; and being on dire economy bent, not only reduced the number of teachers, but cut down the salaries also, in the aggregate a little over fifty per cent. Heretofore three teachers were employed at a salary of ninety, seventy and sixty dollars per month, while two teachers now employed do nearly the same amount of work and are nailed. I am told, only one hundred dollars unitedly per month. The present teachers are both ladies, and I take pleasure in being able to say, have thus far given excellent satisfaction, and on the principle that the same labor if well done is worth as much when performed by a woman as by a man, it is difficult to perceive, except it be in consequence of the most urgent financial necessity, why the great discrepancy above indicated. It is to be hoped that such necessity will not long exist, and that the salaries will again be adjusted to the true value of the labors and responsibilities of the positions. The schools are larger than was anticipated, and I understand that it will be necessary to reopen the primary department at the commencement of the next term. Mr. D. M. Harwood lost a valuable horse yesterday (Wednesday), and from present appearances will lose another to-day. The cause is believed to be from eating or surfeit of wheat not winnowed. Mr. D. C. Hayward was awarded two premiums at the recent State Fair at Sacramento. One for best sample of semi-tropical fruits, the other for best sample of lemons. The latter were of the Lisbon and sweet rind varieties. Mr. Rowell, of Santa Ana, who owns a bee ranch in Trabuco Canyon, and who has suffered the loss of several stands of honey from the depredations of bears, determined to lie in wait for the unwelcome visitors, and last night succeeded in shooting a large grizzly who came for his regular meal of (bee) bread and honey. The bee men are jubilant over the killing already of three or four of these grizzly knights of the mountains, but say that there are a few more left of the same sort. To-day Mr. Rowell is regaling the epicures of Santa Ana with a toothsome steak from brain's carcass which had been made as sweet as honey and the honey-comb could make it.

In past history and in pamphlets, newspapers, etc., we have accounts in detail of daring men, and in some instances women, who have become so desperate after money as to commit murders, waylay roads, seek crowds in the cities, etc., to gain the almighty dollar. But to cap the climax, a road agent (so called) passed through El Monte a few evenings since, and, be it said to his honor too, he had a lingering spark of respect left for humanity. After he had almost passed through the village, being on horseback, he met a Mr. Dodson and asked him if he could give him change for $2.50. It seems that Mr. Dodson took the hint at once and took the road agent for a fellow known as Dick Turpin and instead of giving the change, he put his hand in his other pocket for his 10 shooter, remarking to the agent at the same time to go back to the hotel and he would give him the change. The agent seeing the movement of the hand to the after pocket, said he was in a hurry and could not go back, at the same time putting spurs to his horse, while Dodson made out to reach the hotel, and after taking some stimulants, was able to relate how near he came to being relieved of all his pocket change. Just in the suburbs of the village of the Monte, about two hundred yards further down the road, the El Monte railroad agent, Mr. Burke, with his wife and little baby, met Mr. Turpin. He had Mr. Burke stop his buggy, asked for a match to light his Havana cigar and also asked if he could get change for $2.50. As Burke passed him the match Dick tried to hold him by the hand, but Burke struck his horse with the whip, and at the same time the baby became alarmed and kicked up such a fuss that Dick's horse wheeled aside and the buggy shot by like a slow streak and came into the centre of the village at a speed less than a run. The horse got over the trip by good attention. As Burke does such a heavy freight. Possils. One, the shell and casts of a Gasteropod, Actaeonella Oviformis of which only one imperfect specimen had been found at Shasta, which specimen is figured and described in the 2nd volume of the Palmontology of California. The flora of Santiago was of such interest that I made another visit in July of the present year, and had a most enjoyable week camping in the vicinity; and, though a dry year, was rewarded beyond expectation. Delphinium cardinalis and a much prized yellow variety; Diecntra chrysanthe Rhinocerosculeri; Perezia Micrurephala; Bentastemus Antarchinoides and cordifolia, are only a few of the treasures that await the botanist. Were I to enumerate all of interest to be seen at various places in the mountains and at the coast, this paper would be too long for your columns. MRS. A. E. BUSU. An Apiarist Points out a Remedy. GLEN OAK APIARY, BERNARDO, San Diego Co., Cal., Sept. 23, 1879. EDITOR GAZKTTE:—I notice in the New York Tribune a quotation from your paper in regard to bees injuring fruit, and asking if "Horticulturists have any rights that Beekeepers are bound to respect?" I am sorry to see that the press of California is disposed to discuss this question in a manner calculated to arouse prejudices among that large class of our people who are ignorant of the real merits of the case, and if left to go unchecked, will surely result in some sweeping legislative act that will cripple our business beyond recovery, already overburdened with low prices and bad seasons. I am not one to say the charges against fruit-eating bees are overrated or ill-founded.

The horse got over the trip by good attention. As Burke does such a heavy freighting business and has to carry thousands of dollars with him for ready change whenever called for, he has concluded to carry an 11 shooter with 12 loads in it. May it please your honor to publish the above facts so that other towns may be on the lookout for Mr. Turpin. On last Salbath the Rev. Fuqua baptised several converts to the Baptist faith in the San Gabriel river near the Old Mission. Our farmers are generally having their hay baled as it is much better to store away and handler for marketing. The weather is much cooler and the people say it may rain again sometime. I believe our town is improving, at least the people are, judging from the number of fashion books distributed through the mail to-day. Almost all kinds of agents have visited our village except the blue glass agent, and we are expecting one of them here soon. There is nothing so entertaining as an agent who has good use of his tongue when one is in a hurry to go to work or attend something else of importance. That's what makes it so interesting. If you had any one representing the blue glass business send them this way. Little Lake Items.

I am sorry to see that the press of California is disposed to discuss this question in a manner calculated to arouse prejudices among that large class of our people who are ignorant of the real merits of the case, and if left to unchecked, will surely result in some sweeping legislative act that will cripple our business beyond recovery, already overburdened with low prices and bad seasons. I am not one to say the charges against fruit-eating bees are overrated or ill-founded. They are only too true, and if the remedy did not lie in every man's power to easily and successfully exterminate them, we would have to look forward to the day when every hive would be under a ban and honey production as a business would be a thing of the past. If fruit men would only exercise a little common sense and go to work and trap them as they would any other depredators, the cry of distress would be from apistrists instead of horticulturists. Fortunately or unfortunately, the bee is the easiest of all insects to capture, only it must be attempted on a large scale, while there is a doarth of honey, and before the fruit begins to ripen, for they seem so fond of fruit that honey, which is the best bait for them, will most always be left unnoticed and untouched; so that they must be trapped in February or March, when I guarantee anyone can clear out the bees for a belt of two miles around him in every direction, in less than a week's time, or all colonies at that distance will be so depopulated that they will perish or be forced to be removed. Very truly yours, Ruffus Mohan. [Some of Mr. Morgan's confesses will not relish his suggestion. At the last meeting of the Beekeepers' Association in Los Angeles several of the members stated that fruit men in different parts of the county were trapping and poisoning bees extensively, whereupon it was suggested that apiarsis petition the next State Legislature to pass a law to protect bees, making such destruction of bees a penal offence. Action will be taken at the next meeting of the association. —Ed. GAZEITE.] Agricultural and Botanical Wealth of Anaheim. SAN JOSE, Sept. 24, 1879. EDITOR GAZETTE:— In the summer of 1878, on a visit to Los Angeles Co., I was agreeably surprised at the appearance of the country. San Joseans have a weakness in favor of San Jose as a place of residence, and it is the prevailing opinion that south of this locality there can be nothing inviting to the agriculturist, or desirable in the way of climate. Although our colors are "nailed" to San Jose, the capabilities of your section made a most favorable impression. I thought to find only a desert, but the desert was one that blossomed like the rose. Fields of waving grain, oranges, lemons, limes, almonds, bananas, peaches and other temperate and semi-tropical fruits gladdened the eye in every direction. And not least were the vegetables and potatoes, the best ever seen in California. The three months I spent near Anaheim, I was in a chronic state of amazement at the capacity of the "desert." And as might have been expected with such surroundings, an intelligent class of people engaged in agricultural pursuits, building up schools and churches and forwarding all the best interests of humanity. Santiago Canyon, with its wonders and beauties, was visited, and it is a most interesting field for the research of the botanist and geologist. The terraces at the mouth of the canyon seem to indicate an inland sea, and that during some convulsion of the earth's crust a passage was opened for the discharge of the waters. Or the terraces may be the moraines left by ancient glaciers. The road leading from the canyon over the hills to Santa Ana passes down the last hill on an old lava bed. There is no need to cross the ocean to inspect a lava flow; for it is at your door. Some of the layers consist of dark vascular lava, others are lighter colored and look like compacted ashes. The successive overflows are well defined. I hope at some future time to have the privilege of examining it more particularly. Following up the little canyon past the oval mine, I found international interest. Morrison; Associate Justices—Myrick, Mu-Kinstry, Thoruton, Ross, McKee, Sharptein. Myrick is the only Republican elected. Professor Hilgard has shown, by analysis, that beets grown on the Arroyo Grande, in San Luis Obispo county, contain too much alkali to be fit for sugar. So the recently-suggested sugar beet manufacturer there are not likely to succeed. A number of gentlemen from Santa Barbara and Ventura counties visited San Francisco last week for the purpose of endeavoring to interest capitalists in the construction of a railroad from Santa Barbara to Newhall, the nearest station on the line of the Southern Pacific. The great international six-day walking match ended in New York on Saturday, Rowell, the Englishman, winning the belt. The score was: Rowell 520 miles; Merritt 515; Hazael 500½; Hart 482½; Guyon 471; Weston 455; Ennis 450½; Krohné 450; Taylor 250¾. The mining town of Deadwood, (D. T.) was destroyed by fire on the 26th ult. One hundred and fifty stores and seventy-five residences were burned, the loss being estimated at $3,000,000. All the county records were destroyed, and the title to every mine and town lot is jeopardized. The work of rebuilding is already well under way. Judge Hoffman of the United States District Court has rendered a decision in the agreed case between the Wholesale Liquor Dealers' Association and the Government, to test the question whether importers and wholesale liquor dealers may refill empty foreign spirit packages with domestic brandy, holding that after the imported brandy package has been emptied it cannot be used to hold domestic spirits under penalty of forfeiture of the package and contents, but that it may be used for foreign spirits. The decision was rendered under the Act of March 1, 1879.
