the United States, if such provision relates to internal revenue or 
customs taxation of distilled spirits, wine, or beer, or if such offense 
has been compromised with the person on payment of penalties or 
otherwise, or
    (2) Any felony under a law of any State, or of the District of 
Columbia, or of the United States, prohibiting the manufacture, sale,
