Swiss Industry.

Aided by the numerous water>coursos, the
perseverng industry of the Swiss people has
established extensive manufactures for cotton
goods, wooden fabrics, and silks of rare shades
and designs. Straw work has also received some
attention. Mathematical and scientific instru-
ments are made at Zurich and at Bernie; and
pianos at the former place In regard to the
cotton manufacture, which Is an industry OF
especial interest to US to look at, nj. Chaulnes
says I'm 1860, Switzerland numbered 1902
100 spindles; to-day there are more than 2,059,-
SOL, thus showing in thirteen years an increase Of
more than 457, 242 spindles." From this number
of spindles the estimate is made of ian annual
consumption of raw cotton OF about 81, 500 00(
pounds" One hundred thousand music-boxe'
are annually manufactured in the Vaudois bis
trict of st. Croix alone. The manufacture o
the most ordinary, is perhaps the distinguishing
industry of Switzerland.

WASHINGTON.

Che supreme Court ON Excise Laws.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-Berkley was
confirmed postmaster at Alexandria, Nir-
GINA.
Inc noted and long pending Bartemyer
case from Iowa, which it was expected
would overturn the excise laws of many
Of the States, was to-day disposed of by
the Supreme Court by an opinion of which
the following is the substance:
The usual and ordinary legislation of
the States, regulating or prohibiting the
aale of intoxicating liquors raised no ques-
ton under the Constitution of the United
states prior to the Fourteenth Amend
mCnt of that instrument.
The right to sell such liquors is not one
Of the privileges and immunities of citi-
.ens of the United States, which by that
amendment the States are forbidden to
aoridge. Buff a case were presented, in
which a person owning liquor or other
property at the time law was passed by
the state, absolutely prohibiting any sale
OF 1t, 1T would be very grave question
whether such law would not be inconsis.
tent with the provision of that amend
lnent, which forbds the State to deprive
any person of life, liberty or property
without the process of law.
While the case before the Court attempts
to present that question, it fails to do it,
because the plea which is taken as true
does not state in due form, by positive al
legation, the time when the defendant be-
came the owner of the liquor sold, and,
secondly, because the record satisfies us
chat this is moot, made-up case to obtain
the opinion of this Court on a grave con.
stitutional question without the facts nee
cssary to raise that question. In such 6
case, when the Supreme Court of the State
to which the writ of error is directed has
not considered the question, this Court will
not feel at liberty to go out of its usua
course to decide. Mr.. Justice Miller de
Livered the opinion.
This case was argued with the slaughte
house cases from New Orleans, and it wa
expected that it would be decided will
them, but it has heen deferred until now
'tr. Justice Bradley delivered concur
ing opinion setting forth the distinction
pecWeea this and the slaughter house case
=, in his view, that in those cases there wa
monopoly obnoxious to the charge of de
oriving citizens of the United States 0
their rights of property, contrary to tn
provisions of the Constitution, but in thi
case the question is one merely of polio
regulation, concerning which the Stat
mad undoubted authority.
Mr.. Justice Field read an opinion con
curing in the views of Mr.. Justice Brad
