Seizures OF ILLKIT STILLS.—Reporte re- ceived at the Internad Revenue Office from officers in Virginia, East Tennessee, and North Carolina state that sixty illicit stilis have been seized in the mountains of those sections. As the work of the officers in these localities is very dangerous, Commissioner Delano will ask the aid of an armed force to enforce the law. The business of illicit distilling is car- ried on very extensively, the stills being port- able and frequently moved to different points 4m the mountains. CUBA AND THE Cariuet,—Upon the return of the President, it is understood that a meeting of the Cabinet will be held relative to Cuba: affairs: matters on that Island having taken a turn lately making it necessary for the Gov- ernment to determine upon a definite policy which will govern all United States officials in different sections of the Union. There is no truth in the statements that Secretary Fish was instramental in the recent Cuban arrests in New York city, as that official had nothing to do with the arrests, either directly or indi- rectly.

Smithson agt. ex-Secretary Stanton was before the Circuit Court to-day om the motion ef plaintiff's counsel (Judge Hughes) for the Production of the original papers and letters set forth in the defendant’s pleas. The motion was argued at considerable length and Judge Wylie reserved his decision.
