ATLANTIC AND Pacific TELEGRAPH
California will rejoice to-
day in the establishing of a new line Of
telegraph in opposition to the old and
exacting monopoly. The Atlantic and
Pacific Telegraph Company goes into
operation to-day between this city and
San Francisco, and by the first of Jam
uary next will connect us with the At
lantic States. The line so far is con-
structed in a far better manner than
usual, and as it is an opposition will OF
course reduce rates and give satisfic-
tion.-Sas. Reporter, August 3ls'.

Where DO they Drink Rum :

Everywhere is the reply; yet relatively
they drink far less in the South: than
in the West and less in the West than
in the Central States, where the population
is massed in large towns. The retail sales Of
liquor are small in Vermont and Maine. In
Vermont they amount to less than seven
million dollars annually, the people not being
a drinking people. In Maine they are eight
and quarter millions annually; and there
the laws for the suppression of intemperance
are better enforced than in most States.-
Those States, too, have less demand for alco-
hol in the mechanic arts than some other
States, as in Massachusetts, where the sales
are twenty-eight millions, and in Connecticut
where they are thirty-five millions. But in
the latter States we also drink more, and
what we drink is sold at higher rates. Where
wealth is, there better and more costly liquors
are consume and in large cities, as in Bos-
ton, the hotels and drinking saloons charge
more.
Now il we turn TO the South we shall see
larger returns OF sales; as in Texas twenty
two millions; Alabama twenty-three mil
lions; Georgia twenty-five millions; Ten.
nessee twenty millions: Louisiana forty-eight
millions, and Virginia twenty-six millions
In the Carolinas the consumption is less-h
South Carolina ten and half millions, anG
in North Carolina thirteen and quarter mil
lions. In the West, where whiskey is the
common drink and very cheap, the liquor
sales are very large, men universally and con
stanty drinking. women seldom refusing q
social glass, and even infants learning TO take
rye, corn, hops, and other crops in a liquid
state.
So we find that the average sales in mdi-
ana, Kentucky, Missouri, Wisconsin and
Michigan are fifty million dollars year
while in Illinois they are $120,000,000, and in
Ohio $152, 100000. Remember these are the
sworn official returns of the RETAIL dealers,
and 40 not include the wholesale trade.
But when we come to the Middle States we
see the rum trade in all its broadness. The
sales in the little State OF New Jersey are S42,-
100000; in Pennsylvania S152,663, ,463, and
III New York S246,617 ,520. This is terri
bic. What waste OF the materials that God
has given for the support OF animal
lille And the punishment for this waste
falls where it is deserved. There is more
want-more suffering for bread in the
Central States than in all Others. People
will drink when they have not bread to eat
and they have not bread because they will
drink and are thus untitled to earn subsis
tence. The rum trade is the index of the
amount OF poverty in any community, as it is
also OF viciouSness and crime.
