The bonded warehouse wystem for spirits %# abolished and the col- Rection. of the tax at the distillery is re- qwred.

They will meet daily Yor the purpose of maturing the bill as speedily as pessidle. There is reason to believe that the com- mittee will make many important amendments to ‘the bil! before reporting it to the Senate, They re- @aréd many of its provisions regarding the collection of the whiskey tax as exceedingly crude. There will Prebably be no change, however, for the tax op whiskey as Oxed by the House. The Tariff Question. ‘Within the past two or three days such influences Baye been brought to bear upon the committee as to Jead them to reconsider their determination to post- ‘one the tariff question until next December.

Meeting in the market on Monday last, a little dispute arose between the combatants about some business mat- ters, which ended tn a formal challenge to settle ex- isting differences in the ring. The parties to the fight were Jack Wren, an Irish- man, about twenty-four years of age, five feet eight inches in height, well built, Leaner muscular, and nd giving, gueed evidence of power and ge TE RA age, same hei yt as W well it, but not so muscular as Wren, though he is undoubtedly vel MB colon!

The seconds of Lee were John A. Finn and Wilitam L. Peasley, and those of Wren were R. H. Allen and W. W. J Jonn J. Brown being the referee. At about five o'clock on Tuesday morning the party, accompanied by a few select friends, taper to the ground, but these were soon followed by squads of six and eight, until quite a crowd was present, Boats were procured at ockett’s, and to the public the affair assumed the aspect of a social picnic. The James river being crossed, and all suspicion evaded very skil- folly, the pretiininaries were soon arranged, and at @ quarter past five the com- batants took their position, with their appropriate seconds in due place. Both meu looked cool and uneimbarrassed, — pearing in fine trim for the fray, and after a shake hands time was catied by the timekeeper, William Holmes. Corners were then tossed for, and Lee won the choice of position, Round /.—Both came to the scratch smiling, and some slight sparring ensued, when Lee got in his left on Wren’s mouth, drawing blood, follow- ing this suceess with the right on his left ribs, ‘They then grappied, Lee falling under, Wren on top.

Seconds called “foul,” and referee decided against Wren, warning him not to do so again. Last Rouxp.—Both came to, time, Wren slowy, looking very much exhausted, right eye being nearly closed, and otherwise showing severe punishment. Lee siniled and looked fresi.
