ADULTERATED LIQUoEs.-The New
York World has been sending around to
the bars of the leading hotels for samples
of the liquor sold by these institutions, and
nobody will be surprised to learn that
most of it proves to be badly adulterated'
Liquors obtained from Delmonico's the
Astor House, the Metropolitan, the Fifth
Avenue, and other first class places, were
porved by chemical analysis to contain
large proportions of fusil oil, a dangerous
poison with powerful intoxicating quail
ties while there was not case in which
the liquor had not been largely diluted
with water. In the examples cited by
the World the price of brandy was from
thirty to fifty cents glass, and that OF
whiskey twenty to thirty cents.

CURIOUS CRIMINAL CAsE.-In Dayton,
Ohio few days ago, greatly to the sur
prise of the Court, two men indicted for
murder entered the plea of guilty" as
charged in the Indictment. The fact
turned out that they had less confidence
in making defence to jury than in 60
ing to the Supreme court on the sufficien'
cy of the indictments. Counsel in both
cases had discovered, or thought they
had discovered, defects in the indict
ments, and took advantage of this fact
expecting thereby to secure their clients
from future jeopardy, while they would
at the same time prevent execution Of
sentence under the present plea.
