Enormous Consumption OF Spirits.

The enormuos consumption ofarlcnt
spirits in this country involves IN in.
credIic waste Of property, When the
marshals took the ccnsus in 1910, they
were directed TO collect and return to
the Sccrctary's Office the amount OF all
domestic manufactures, OF any consid
cradle Importance, in the United States.
From these returns it appears, that no
less than 2J,1o9,3o2 gallons Of ardent
spirits were distilled that year Of which
we're exported 1883 gallons, leaving
25,3G5,59 gallons to he consumed n
home. The same year about S,UOO,OOO
gallons Of rum and other foreign dis
titled liquors were imported to this
country; which being added to the
above 25,36j,52a, produces IN amount
of33,3G5,j29 gallons, for our home
consumption in y single year. Let this
aggregate Of domestic and foreign
spirits be made the basis Of few plain
calculations. Now 33,3G5,J29 gallons
is 2IS,932 hogahcads, Cat more than 1874
gallons to the h~ogshcad,) which sup
posing one team to carry two hogs
heads, would load IA, 46G wagons.
These, allowing only three rods for
each team, world reach 0 than L.
1866 miles, or nearly the whole length
Of the United safes, from north to
south. The number of hogslcads
necessary to contain the liquor, must,
upon n moderate computation, cost
100000 dollars; and would, if placed
so as to touch each other, reach more
than l7S miles, wanting only twelve
miles Of the distance from New York
city to Baltimore. Or, to present the
subject in another light, the quantity of
ardent distilled spirits, which is annual
~ drunk in the United States, is su1i-
cientto gil a canal forty-two miles long,
ten feet wide, and two feet deep; afford
ing convenient navigation for boats of
several tons burden.
The cost ofthis vast amount Of liz
uid fire, estimated at one dollar n gal
lon, exceeds $4,000 900 of dollars.
How much good might be done with
this money. How largely might i'll
contribute TO the convenience and pros
perity of the nation, if it were cXpepd-
cd in making roads, building colleges,
hospitals, alm-houses, bridges, and
churches; encouraging useful manu-
features, forming canals, Certifying our
seaports, augmenting our navy, in
structing the poor, distributing the BIZ
bic and other religious books in our
new Sc. Elements, establishing libraries,
and sending out missionaries.
