The Alcohol Trade.

Since the modification Of the excise law, by which
several costly restrictions on the expectation of
alcohol made in the United States have been re-
moved. an immense demand has arisen for that ar
ticle from foreign countries. In The months OF
May ami June of the present year the quantity
shipped from New York TO the Continent aggrega-
ted, according to the Journal Of Commerce. 10 900
barrels, or about 0 5000 gallons OF proof spirits.
The corn from which the article is distilled in the
Western States supplies a better article than can
be obtained from European corn, potatoes or beets.
The demand from France during the present sea-
son will be very large, and will exhaust the supply
now on hand. During the Summer months the
manufacture decreases. as the weather is too warm
for the cheap condensation of alcohol. The former
charges on domestic distilled spirits. when ex-
ported. amounted to about one half per cent. per
gallon, which was a considerable percentage on the
value.
In the Western States corn was so abundant that
it was used as fuel. Now a new outlet has been
opened for its consumption, which may prevent it
from being used as a substitute for wood. The con-
sumption for alcohol in the arts and manufactures
on the Continent may be summed up as amounting
annually to over Two hundred million of proof gal
Ions. In the regions of a country where distill-
cries abound, the refuse serves for fattening hogs and
cattle. This enables the prOprietors by its utiliza-
ton for that purpose 10 largely increase their
profits. The value of oak has so increased in
Europe. in consequence of the demand for casks 10
hold wines, brandies and other liquors. that the fine
quality of the slaves in the American barrel gives
the article they contain a preference in foreign
markets. The spirit trade promises 10 become of
great Importance, and a commission has been sent
to the principal European markets to make arrange
ments for the sale of large quantities. by making
contracts for future deliveries.

Mr. Hale resented the question as fur
ther insult and the personal explanation be-
came personal discussion participated in
by Eldrldgc, Randall, Butler, Wilson and
others Hale stated that he had been
warned of the coming castigation for his
remarks in the debate on Monday, and said
the attack upon him had been inspired by
Mr. Butler and made through Wilson and
Eldridgc.
Mr. Butler interrupted and said that there
was no truth in the statement.
Mr. Eldridge made the same assertion as
to himself.
Mr. Hale resumed giving Mr. Wilson's re.
cord on various votes on the salary uues-
ton and said that with such "A record he
was not surprised that the gentleman from
Indiana had been selected to make the at

record and made further remarks upon
lIale's double salary
He was followed by Mr.. Eldridge in the
same strain. If Hale had become dirty it
was by reason Of filth from the pool which
he himself had chosen to wallow in.
Mr.. Butler cndeavorcd to pour oil upon
troubled waters, by justifying Hale's ac-
ton in the case cited, only blaming him for
dcnouncing as robbers members who had
voted for and taken the back pay, while
his own skirts were not clear.

Howes, who recently removed to North
Bennington from Fairhaven, was riding by
Hon. c. f. Houghton's the forward axle
tree to his carriage broke, and his horse, a
fine spirited animal became unmanageable,
but he succeeded in refining him up to the
bank building where the carriage capsized,
preclpitating him upon the frozen ground
with great violence producing various and
severe cuts and bruises, but nothing which
proved very serious. Mr. IIowes, though
man advanced in years, displayed the
true metal by clinging tenacously to his
reins until the bystanders came to the
rescue. Though but ashort time a resident
there he has become valued citizen and
his seemingly providential escape from a
violent death affords much cause for con-
graduation.
