Mr.. Conkling stated that the Southern States
pay only 1892, 192 10 out of the 2s4ss1.-
461 N paid by all the States In customs dues
and internal revenue taxes collected by the
Federal government. The Journal calls
attention to the fact that OF the
total internal revenue receipts Of the
United States government, which amount
TO $i17,O00,00O, the South paid on TO-
bacco s4O,OOO,OO0, on liquors $f5,ooo,Ooo. on
banks and stamps $t,5OO,000, Oh total OF
$4,000, OO0--over one-half the total receipts q
the government In other words the South
pays $40 OOo0 900 out Of the s42,OOo,ooo collected
on tobacco, s150Oo,000 out OF The S6e,ooo.Voo
collected On liquors. etc. and Sl,5oo,oOo cor
Iected Oh banks and stamps. 30 much Tor the
internal revenue.
As To customs It will be observed that Mr..
Gambling assumes that the Southern states
pay none Of this tax. The reeelpts rom GUS
toms amount to S19l,0oo,o0O and OIL this the
South paws not less than one-fourtn, OF

sumes.
Again. let us see what the South further
contributes TO the wealth Of the country
and TO the prosperity Of that portion 81 y
where MIR. Conkllng and hls soothing friends
reside. The South, In the single article Of
cotton alone, furnishes $1sO,oO0,0O0 to $780,
100000 Of exports, or one-thlrd the entire ex-
ports OF tho country. She also furnishes
100000 hogsheads Of sugar and 100000 bags
Of rice. She sends the New England States
i,25o, 900 bales of cotton, which are manufac-
tured into goods worth not less than $780,
100000, the manufacture OF which furnishes
the people Of that section with bread, and
enables the high minded statesmen who
abuse and yilify the South On every occasion
To amass fortunes.

Ground was broken few days ago for the
tunnel which Is to be built under the Detroit
river at Crosse Isle, some miles below the
city OF Detroit. The tunnel is to connect the
Canada Southern Railroad with the Michigan
roads under yanderbilt's control. Mr.. Van
derblt, as the Colorado Cattle Company, has
purchased upward Of 900 acres in one body
OF the best grazing land In Colorado. He is
not only the controlling spirit In and prac-
tically the Colorado Cattle Company, but he
also controls and practically constitutes the
Hudson River, Harlem, New York Central,
Lake Shore, Michigan Central and Michigan
Southern Railroads. These are all trunk
lines. Mr.. Vanderbilt Ia also the Merchants
Dispatch Company, and he Is also the Stock
Yards Company at Kansas City. He Is the
owner of a line Of steamers to run from New
York to Liverpool, intended to carry grain
and live stock. He is, indeed, something over
500, 900 of active capital invested. Itbe-
gins to seem probable that he will 80 far TO-
ward controlling the grain and cattle business
OF the West and Northwest.
Most persons will agree with the New York
Journal Of Commerce that Mr.. Reagan's Qui-
nine bill In the United States House Of Repre-
sentatves does not go far enough. His pro-
position to scale down the duties on all
auinine salts to the 20 per cent ad valorem
rate now levied on the sulphate alone Is still
too much In the nature OF compromise with
the few American manufacturers of that drug
to suit the consumers. Free quinine" Is the
cry now resembling in all parts Of the eoun-
try. The same day that Mr.. Reagan's bill
was offered twenty or thirty others were pre-
sented repeating the whole duty. Alarmed
by the general cutlery against what is justly
termed blood tax, the handful of monop-
olists who have grown rich upon the suf-
ferings OF humanity are perfectly willing
to accept the reduction proposed by Mr..
Reagan. In q pamphlet entitled 'An-
nual Review of the Drug Trade Of New
York for the Year 1875" prepared by
Mr.. D. G. Robbins, for the forthcoming an
nual report Of the Chamber Of Commerce, the
author speaking from knowledge Of the
subject derived from the manufacturers
standpoint, comedies that the present duty
on all the quinine salts, except sulphate
should be reduced from As to 20 per cent, and
that on sulphate to 10 per cent. He is also
willing to reduce the duty on three other val
liable products Of cinchona and quinidia, nov
included In medical preparations not other
wise provided for" from 40 to 20 per cent
But the people will not be satisfied with
mere reduction in the amount OF the duty
They demand that the entire duty shall be re
moved.

In the course of long article reviewing
the recent speech in Congress Of Mr.. Conk-
ling, Of New York, the Louisville Courier
journal presents some striking statistics
which completely refute his statements in
regard to the South. Among other things
