VOLUME 32--NUMRER 1e5o
HOc 4rdeHt spirits are Made

The Boston Journal of Chemistry of
March |, gives TO its readers some .very
private recipes for making Fictitious
liquors, used by dealers in Europe and
America, some of which, abridged, are
here Transcribed for tine purpose of show
ing consumers the quality of the bever-
ages now generally exposed for sale
those recipes are not as bad as some in
use, and undoubtedly show the processes
by which the best class of liquors are
made. We have in the market no pure
hquorsj and much better would the con-
dltion OF those who use it be, if they were
sure OF having beverages no worse than
these.
The editor of the Journal SAYS: sThe
oil OF bitter almonds, ETHEREAL wine.
peach extract, nitrous ether, ETC., ETC.,
are all poisons and when taken into
the stomach with alcohol are calculated
10 make ''short work with those who
swallow these liquids. And speaking of

The editor says: Every practical
chemist knows that the liquors retailed
at fashionable hotels are greatly attenua-
ted and mixed and all who have taken
the trouble to investigate, have clear
understanding of the abominable charac-
ter OF the liquors retailed at shops and
bars. The tuSit oil, found almost uni
vcrsally i'll brandies, results from the ad-
mixture OF cheap whiskey with the BRAN
dy. Seventy per cent. of low grade
whiskey can be mixed with it and no
one can detect the fraud by taste or
smell.
"Wines are worse than other liquors.
We recently examined a bottle Of cham
pagne taken from the hands of the i'm
porter, with Il name upon the label
which has the highest repute in this city,
and it was found 10 be Fictitious and
poisonous. The whole business of manu-
featuring and vending wines and liquors,
both in Europe and this country, is sad
ly demoralized. Persons who patronize
bars should understand that
they fare but little better as regards the
liquors they drink, than if they drink at
the bars OF low groggeries and dance Gel
