As stated in Tue Tninuxa yeslerdsy, tho Dock Company's receipt for tho 150 barrels was among tho papers eeized by tho Government wheu lightning siruck on the 10th of May lasts Aftor sho seizuro of these napors, na detailed in yostorday's ‘Frinur, offorts wore made to withdraw theso bighwines from the Dock Cumpzny’s warchouss without | ritarn of the receipt, wbich efforts failod, a4 did thoso to havo tho barrols omplied, so that tho fraud—ihich couninted in refiiling barrels, the stamps upon which had not hoen de- atroyed ayroquired by law—might nnt ba diseas- ored. Lt somohiow, before the Girand Jury of tho United States Court met, thoso recaipts which had been in possession of the Govern- ment wera presonted the Dock Company, and upon them the 150 barrels of crooked wero turned ovor to the person presenting tho ro. coipts.
