With regard to the home manufac-
tuTed article, we use the figures Of the
d" Report of the Commissioner of r.
teTnal Revenue. From this document
it appears that the number of distiller-
les In operation during part of the
whole of the fiscal year was 3,506, OF
which 656 were grain, 9 molasses and
2 S51 fruit establishments. The guam
titY of spirit distilled was 90, 574, 062
gallons, and warehoused, 68, 705, 374
gallons. The amount Warehoused was
disposed as follows: Withdrawn on
payment of tax, 81, 763, 700 gallons
exported under bond, 4,060, 106, and
Withdrawn for Eeientific purposes 4, 1856;
or total of 65, S28, 692 gallons. There
remained in bond, of the distillation of
the year, 2,976,682 gallons, or, includ-
ing the surplusage of previous years,
10, 455, 400 gallons. The tax collected
on tine quantity withdrawn from ware
house was $43, 1873, $40.
From these details of liquor statistics
we are enabled to show approximately

again duplicated on reaching the con
sumner. It is thus evident that the con-
sumers will pay for the foreign articles
alone the sum of $25, 125, 296. In the
same fiscal year, there was withdrawn
from warehouse for consumption 6I,-
1853, 700 gallons of proof spirit, which at
the first hand will cost about twice the
amount of the tax paid, or $86, 377, TAO,
and will sell to the retailer at 25 per
cent. advance, or for $107, $40, IT'S, and
to the consumer at fully twice that
value, or for 1915, O44, $50. Noting
these facts, and in palmer illustration
of the same, we summarize them in the

California has contributed so
much of the precious metals to the
United States, that it was long be-
fore her marvellous yield in other
particulars attracted the attention
that it merited. Her recent rains
have rendered it reasonably GER
tain that this will be one of her
best years, and our attention is ask
ed to the following handsome esti-
mate of her productions for 1875:
Wool, $4,000, 900 pounds wine,
100000 gallons wheat, 10000, =
900 bushels. Add to this other
grains, hay, fruit and beet sugar,
and the product of her soil will
exceed in market value 100000
900. So much for a State that has
been but twenty-five years in the
Union, and which but few years
since was practically a foreign
country, to be reached only by a
sea voyage whose course was half
around hemisphere, and along
the confines Of the Antarctic ocean.

de had been sick a. one Of the
hotels for three or four weeks, and
the boys on the road had dropped
in daily TO see how he got along
to learn if they could render him
any kindness. The brakeman was
a good fellow, and one and all en-
couraged him In the hope that ne
would pull through. The doctor
didn't regard the case as danger
Gus; but the other day the patient
began sinking and it was seen that
he could not live the night out =
A dozen of his friends sat in the
room when night came, but his
mind wandered and he did not
recognize them.
1t was near one of the depots,and
after the great trucks and noisy
drays had ceased rolling by the
bells and the short, sharp whistles
of the yard engines sounded pain
fully loud. The patient had 0een
very quiet for half an hour, when
he suddenly opened his eyes and
shouted: "Kal-a-ma-zoo !"
One Of the men brushed the hair
back fron. the cold forehead, and
the brakeman closed his eyes and
was quiet for a time Then the
wind whirled around the depot
and banged the blinds on the win
dows of his room, and he lifted his
head and cried out !:
jackson Passengers going
north by the Saginaw road change
cars!v
The men understood. The brake
man thought he was coming east
on the Michigan Central. The eff
fort seemed TO have greatly ex-
hausted him, for he lay like one
dead for the next five minutes, and
a watcher felt for his pulse to see if
life had not gone out. A tug GO
ing down the river sounded her
whistle loud and long and the dy-
ing brakeman opened his eyes and
called out.
nAnn Arbor! ~
He had been over the road
thousand times, but had made his
last trip. Death was drawing
spectral train over the old track,
and he was brakeman, engineer
and conductor
One OF the yard engines uttered
shrill whistle of warning, as if
the glare of the headlight had
shown to The engineer some stran-
ger in peril, and the brakeman
called out:
"Yp-slanty-change ears here for
the Eel River Road ~
"He's coming in fast" whisper
ed one of the men.
"And the end of his rum will
be the end of his life !" said the
second.
The dampness of death began to
collect on the patients forehead,
and there was that CHASTITY look
on the face which death always
brings. The slamming of door
down the hall startled him again,
and he moved his head and faint
ly called, "Grand Trunk Junction
Passengers going east by the
Grand Trunk change cars !"
He was so quiet after that that
all the men gathered around the
bed, believing that he was dead
His eyes closed and the brakeman
lifted his hand, moved his head
and whispered.
"De--"
Not "Detroit," hut Death I"
He died with the half-uttered
whisper on his lips. And the head
light on deaths engine shone full
in his face and covered it with
such pallor as naught but death
can bring.
