y The Whiskey Rebellion The Washington Star, mint's organ, contains I additional particulars concerning the recent whiskey troubles in the mounitrti regions if North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia.? The Star of the loth saysr^From information daily received at the ollice of internal revenue, it woull seem that the illicit distillers in the mountain regions of North and South Carolina and Georgia, have organized a system of armed resistance to the authority of the government, both civil and military. In late raids, made by revenue officers, aided by federal troops, resistance has been made by the distillers and their friends. Frequently deadly conflicts have occurred.? In a recent raid made in NorthjGeorgia, the oncers succeeded in capturing a large number of men, anil destroying numerous distilleries, with their contents, The revenue agent in charge of this section, in a recent report to the Commissioners of Internal itcvenue, on this subject says: "1 shall make auother raid into auuthei section of llarralson County, and on .Sunday night will make an extended raid into l'auldiitg County." Ore t excitement prevails in the sections of the country which we'visited, and bodies of men, mounted and armed, are patrolling and picketing many of the roads. On our next raid 1 an trcipatc resis.ruce and trouble, ami wuiiM have already had it, it' our movement had mil been a surprise." On the tiih of February, revenue agent t'haniItcriain, accompanied liy a detaeluneiit of soldiers, raided a portion ?f llarralsou t'ouuiy, arrested 27 men, sc.zed and destroyed U distilleries, lO.'l stands of beer and mash, aggregating 15,000 gallons, and OtHt gallons of low wines.? All the property was destroyed for waul of transportation. Another parlv, uuder llcvcnuc Agent Gremison, accompanied by a delaeliiuenl of sol?liers under the command of Lieutenant Mclutyrc, of Second Infantry, went to Gilmer County*-Ga.,* arrested fifteen men, destroyed twelve distilleries, with large quantities of beer and mash.? This party was attacked at night by the friends of. toe persons arrested, and Lieutenant Mclu, tyro was killed. This is the first instance on record where the civil oflicetsof the government in the South have been resisted in the discharge of .heir duty whon backed up by Federal soldicrs. The following dispatch was received at the ofliee of internal revenue." Caktkksvii.i.k. Ga., February 12, 1S77.?l)ctnehments sent out for Lieut. Mclntyre's body were attacked and three distillers killed before the laidv could be recovered. The body when found was robbed of watch money, and everything of value.

All (he fuels in regard to the situation in the three States above named have becti collected and embodied in a letter addressed to the .Secretly ot the Treasury, by the Commissioner of I >^nternnl Revenue. This letter will be presented to the President in thed'abinct, and it is expeeted that he will direct more troops to be sent to the district infested by these armed bands of illicit distillers, with instructions to break up their haunts and destroy their distilleries, and bring.all whom they can arrest in for trial. There being no cavalry available for use in thet0States, the Commissioner of Internal Revenue has directed the purchase of n large number of horses with which to mount the infantry detailed to assist the revenue agents. - What a Delightful Place to Livo At 1 The following is taken from a Nevada paper, and gives an encouraging picture of "Life in the Black Hills:" Tim Dkauwoou Daily Papkh.?We have a daily newspaper?that is, sometimes it's daily ?and then when the compositors get drunk it don't come out for several days.

Our graveyard is a big institution, and a growing one Sometimes, however, the place is right quiet. I've known times when a man wasn't killed for twenty-four hours. Then, again, perhaps they'd lay out live or six a day. When a man gets too handy with his sliootin'-irons. and kills live or six, they think he isn't safe, and somebody pops him over to rid the place of him. They don't kill him for what ho. how .loin.

At the hour named Representative Hamilton was accosted by a crowd of drunken and noisy negroes at the corner of Calhoun and St. l'hillip streets.

He appealed th a policeman who was near, but this knight of the clubs and stars was cvi- j dently in sympathy with the black mob, 1 aud refused to afford Mr. Hamilton the protection he asked and was entitled to.

We suggest that our people wait and see both pictures, before choosing which they will have. .Marshall's famous engravings are attracting unusual attention. The superb large line engraving of Washington, from Stuart's celebrated oil portrait in the Boston Athcmcum?a plate valued at ten thousand dollars?when originally brought out about ten years ago, at once placed Mr. Marshall in the very front rank of engravers, ancient or modern, meeting, both in Kurope and America, the most extravagant encomiums of artists, critics, and men of judgment. It was even selected for exhibition at the French Academy of Design, an honor accorded to none but the very highest works of art. It is, moreovcrthc best, indeed the only satisfactory, portrait of Washington that exists, and is the acknowledged standard "household engraving" of him. The late Kdward Kvcrett said of it : "The magnificent engraving of Stuart's head of Washington. It is truly a superb work." Bancroft, the historian, writes : "1 have been for some years a collector of the many different engra vings of the portraits of Washington. This is beyond comparison the best of them all?the only one that is perfectly satisfactory." Mr. George S. Ilillard, the well known art critic, says: "Were it the head of some unknown person, a lover of art would be glad to have a copy of the engraving for its rare intrinsic merits, I and every American should be ready to make ' sonic sacrifice in til her ways in order to possess so salisfactoev a ri'i.rpwsiiiiinii *<'M'-iuli ??<? ?

Those services entitle him to be presented to his countrymen everywhere in a style equal to that in which Washington and hoc and other rercscntativc gentlemen of the country are shown.? Time was required for this great work, that care and skill should make it perfect. Its publication has been anticipated by another issue, of the merits of which the public can judge.

As a * work of art it stands unrivalled, nut still its X chief merit lays in its being a lift-like portrait. It is the first product, on so large a scale, of a new and secret process based on photography, having the advantage of great truthfulne?$. As the photograph has superseded the oil-painting, because ol its exact reproduction of the subject, so this process is bound to take the place of steel engraving, or any method which depends upon artistic conception ami execution for result?we mean for the production ot portraits. Wli.it tlie people want in a portrait is (ru(h ? they ?lo J not wish the artist's conception of a man, but ^ the face and features of the man as he is?and by no means can litis grand result be better attained tlia.ii by the means of photography, and this new process based thereon. Dut while these groat Iwfllmtfecs nrc secured, it admits of the embellishments of art, and a portrait is produced possessing nil the truthfulness of a photograph, with (lie artistic effect of the steel engrnvhg.
