    Internal Revenue — Seizure and Sale — Injunction by State Court.
    Plaintiff [A. W. Walker] owns a distillery on the corner of Harm el and St. Peter streets, in New Orleans. Defendant [S. A. Stoekdale], who is an internal revenue collector of the United States, seized upon the distillery and implements and advertised them for sale for the payment of the government tax. An injunction was issued on the 26th of October, 1869, from the Sixth district court, restraining defendant from selling the property. On the 4th of November following, Stoekdale applied to the United States circuit court-for a writ of certiorari directing the judge of the Sixth district court to send up the record, which was done.
