War WAsHINoToNIANs QuAFFED TWEEN
rY.r,yx YEARS AGo!-The sale Of Baron De
Bodisco's wines recalls many incidents OF
those days when pleasant groups OF gentle
men used to linger around the polished
mahogany, after the cloth had been remov-
ed, and enjoy the orthodox juice Of the
grape. Nowadays. large proportion Of
the wine gulped down at hotels or private
rooms, comes through the doubtful medium
of New York commission merchants, and Is
of that doubtful character which the Mas
sachusetss commissioner has sold for medi-
cinal purposes, to his own exceeding great
profit. Where not one guest in ten can tell
the difference between glass OF Johannis-
berger and glass Of Rudesheimer, dinner
giyers don't bother themselves much, always
excepting the diplomats. The representa-
tive Of Her Gracious Majesty Of Eng land has
some most excellent Port, and the Minister
of Queen Isabel of Spain, can give his guests
some exquisite pale Sherry, old enough to
have lost all favor Of the wine.skiDs-oior de
6ota they call it-and delicate as the sherbet
with which Mahomet regales his hours IN
Paradise.
