The potty peculations practiced Ly somo of tho Fedoral barnacles are & source ot much com- pluint, and many business men aro annoyed and disgusted thereby. If ono has oceasion to releaso imported goods from bond, nund is n haste, it ‘hocomes necessary to feo somo of the subor- dinates. Two cases of peculation came to the notice of a TripuNE reporter yosterday, and show conolu- sivoly that fraud was practiced. A geutloman who frequently bas oceasion to reloase fine im- ported liquors from bound relates that about four months ago ho called st tho Gov- ernmont warehouso, at tho cormer of Market and Quincy strects, to obtain o caso of fine O. P. brandy imported from France. Ho waited somo time in the place, aud finully succeeded in gotting & young man in the otico to attend to him. Tho ollicer in charge of tle warehouse wad nbsont. The employe wont to the case which tho gontleman found ad- drossed to his house, and, taking o large quart vottle, filled it with the' brandy. Supposing ho hnd done so for the purpose of prov- jug it, the gontleman wmted, with tho oxpectation that tho youug man would do 8o, and then put the liquor back into tho ease. But tho oflictous employo did not do go, and the gon- tleman paid the duty aud went away. The crso was sont to bim shortly afterwards, and ho dis- covored by actual mensuremont that the brandy 1akon,out iad not been replaced, The cost of the liquor way $12. A few days ago ho called again at_the samo warchoue, aud found the saus man in chiarge, To bad another case to rolenss from bond, and the employo tilled bis auatt botLie from it, as ho bad douoe before. Tho importer ngain waited on tho clerk, whom he supposed twould take tho proof, but he did not do o, nud the liquor was sont to tho owner, loss the quart, which cost tho importor this time $6, Tho above are bul insiancesof = system of peculation pursued by Government employes in this and other cities, Foraign wines are tam- yered with by exiracling emall quantitios and yeplacing _them with water, which will not be discovered in large cases, evon if several gallons ato_ takeu out, Other goods aro med- dled with in a similar manner. Just euch small stenls lhavo been practiced in the New York Custom-Houso, and, in Bomo cases, leading ealoons sra thus supphed with the fuest wineaand liquors, which ave ' sot up” free of cost to the Uovernment omploye and his fiiends whon they aro on a spree. The longer the eamo oflicials aro in offico, the more bold and baretaced are the peculations practiced, and shippers have notliug to do but to grin und bear them. Complaint was made 1o the oificar in charge of the warehouso, who promised to at- tend to the matter, but did nothiug. —_— TEE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS, Tho Board of County Commissionars met yes- terduy nflernoon, President Ashton in the chair, Requisitions for supplies of drug, otc., for the County Hospital; tho IIospital pay-roll for the mouth of Soplember, amounting to $092; the poy-roll of county employes, amountiog to £2,001.63; and various bills, wero road aud ro- ferred to approprinte committoos.
