WHAT WE sAT AND nRINK.

There is evidently a strong suspicion
that the people of Washington are to
greater or less degree subsisting upon adult
terated food and drink, otherwise Congress
would not feel called upon to neglect the
wants of the Nation and turn its attention
10 the food and drink which are used by the
inhabitants of the National Capital The
Committee on Manufactures of the House
of Representatives has introduced a report
and bill to prevent the sale Of aduterated
articles of food aud drink within the Dis
trict Of Columbia. The report is matter
of much interest to those who are wrestling
with dear life in this city and vicinage as
it presents some curions and somewhat
startling statistics 1t states that six pack
ages of coffee in the berry, bought in BalG-
more, were submitted to the chemist of the
Agricultural Bureau and were found to be
coated with compound OF chrome-a
deletorious substance-lor the purpose
of improving the appearance of the
berries and increasing their market
value. Analyses of samples of what were
called in Washington good guupowder tea
showed that they were largely aduterated
with Prussion blue, "one-halG" says the re,
port, with only enough tea 10 give odor ia
"the compound" In respect to oleomarga'
Tine the report quotes GEORGE Il. ANGELL's
statement, that 0O,OO0OOO pounds of this
artificial butter were made in this country
in 1873, and that "he had discovered, in
specimens of it, fungi and living organ
"isms.p Mr.. ANGEL is also quoted a
stating that muriate of tin, poison, haC
been found in twelve out Of fourteen sam
pies of sugar and syrups, Other adultera
tions are referred TO in the report
Now, to the consumers of tea, coffee
syrup, and bread and butter in this District
this il a grave subject, for he who wouI,

coffee, or oleomarsarine upon our bread
must be set down in our diary as
our enemy for life, and if this Congress
has any respect for the dearest rights Of the
American citizen, it will neither sleep nor
slumber until this bill to prevent the sale
of adulterated food and drink within the
city of Washington shall have become n
law. We can forego our tea, coffee and
bread and butter until this prevention is
provided, if Congress will only hurry up
the bill. Put it through under the pre-
vious question and earn the gratitude ofl5O,-
600 deceived and deluded men, women and
children. But for this Committee on Man
ufactures we never should have known the
full measure of our wrongs-but now know
ing them, we are impatient for the right to
ensue.

TIE oHAGREs CANAL SCHEME.

NJ. DE LEssEPs' canal scheme is no mere
bagatelle financially. In other words, it is
"big thing" with millions in it." The
arithmetic men have been busy with slate
and pencil, and some present most gigantic
figures as to the amount necessarily IN
yolved if the scheme is prosecuted. The
stock, as suggested by NJ. DE LEssEPs, is to
he for 6O00OO000 francs or S120,OOOOOO,
leaving 243,OOO,00O francs or $lS,6OO,OOO to
be provided for Add to this 250,000,000
francs or $5O,OOO,OOO for eight years in
terest on non-productive capital by s0,000,-
600 francs or S16,OOOOOO, with interest to
bankers and promoters by 100000
francs or S2,6O0,00O to Lieutenant BONA
PARTE WISE for obtaining the concession,
and by 70,000,000 francs or S1i,000,000 for
the purchase of the Panama railroad, pre-
senting grand total of 1,256 900 francs,
or S251 100000. NJ. DE LEssEPs expects
100000 tonnage annually to pass through
the canal following Immediately upon its
completion. These estimates, however, are
founded upon the calculations of NJ. LEvAs-
sEUR, which were submitted to the Paris
Congress last year. This calculation is based
upon the expectancy that important and
competing lines will at once surrender their
long-enioyed trade, and in view of this
conjecture it is contended in advance that
this trade cannot be carried rs cheaply or q:
expeditiously by the LEssEPs route as by
the channels now pursued.
To sum the whole question up in it,
financial aspect it appears that the Chagre'
Canal Company will require total capita
of 1,260,OO0,000 francs, or S251 100000, t,
earn six per cent, upon which it will re
quire an annual revenue of75000, 900 francs
or S15, 900, being 10 francs or S3per ton, a
estimated by NJ. LAvAssEUR, which is sub
iect to some correction. All this show
that the income of the company cannot b
made to exceed 100000 francs or $4,000
600, for interest, working expenses an
repairs which is less than four per cent. o.
the amount expended. Our people ar
asked to invest S6OOOOOOO in this enter
prise, proposition which, in its consider
alton, they will be very likely TO compar
with our Government four per cents, whicI
rest upon the faith and life of the American
Republic without the attendant vicissitude
in the way of revolutions, such as are con
stanly occurring in the territory throug
which this cRual is to pass.
