WHAT THE DISTILLERS WANT.

Mr.. Shufeldt and Dr. Rush, the president and
secretary of the National DiStillers Association,
are in the city with the purpose Of urging upon
Congress the enactment of legislation for the relief
of their business They desire in the first place, the
reduction of the tax on whisky from ninety to
forty cents the gallon and the extension of the
bonded period, which is now three years, so that
whisky can be kept longer in bond without tax.
They also want the law which authorizes vinegar
makers to make their own alcohol resciRded, so
that the alcohol used in the manufacture of
vinegar will be subject to tax like other alcohol.
They would like to have some arrangement made
with the Government of France, by mutual consent,
to abolish the existing system, which taxes Ameri
can alcohol going into France thirty francs per
hectolitre, and whisky made in Germany only
fifteen francs. They claim that if this unjust
discrimination is abolished, an enormous market
would be opened up for American alcohol in France,
as they use large quantities of alcohol in rectfyng
their wines. These views will be presented to
Congress in due form.

A FOREIGN VIEW OF AN AMERICAN MAG.
AZINE.

"The Century Magazine (Scribner's Monthly,
published IN New York and London, has of late
made rapid progress among the reading public Of
the United Kingdom. What the secret of its ex-
traordinary popularity is we can, Of course. only
conjecture. 1t is bulky, wel-prinsed magazine Of
1850 RACES; but it's hardly be ascribed
its cheapness, for the price is Is Adj and some Of
our own sixpenny mOnthlies contain at least bali
the quantity of printed matter. It is probably due
neither to its cheapness to any single excellence
neither to its illustrations its tales, it's biog
raphes its descriptive articles its Bric-a Brae its
Topics of the Times its Home Society," it's
Culture and Progress its Worlds Work ,
alOne-but to- combination of literary ana artistic
merits, that the British edition can boast of so
large circulation. Something may be due, more
over, to the Anglo-Saxon spirit, as distinguished
from the purely British the purely American that
pervades its pages; it is much more American than
it is British, but it is much Angio-Saxon than
either and representative of the race than any
of the various Municipalities into wAieh it is
ted. We confess ourselves to experiencing the
charm Of this wider influence. But whatever its
success is owing to- the fact Of its success > I'M

A GETTYSBURG COINCIDENCE.

The incidents narrated in Recollections of
Drummer-boy,' by Harry NJ. Kieffer, now running
as serial in ST. Nicholas, have called forth letters
from veterans in various parts of the country who
saw or took part in them and all of whom attest the
accuracy of Mr. Kietfer's descriptions. His account
in the January chapters of the battle of Gettysburg
and the mention therein of the capture and recap.
ture of the cOlors of the One Hundred and Forty
ninth Pennsylvania regiment in hand-to-hand
fight has brought to the editor the following letter
"FoRT WAYNE IND. January T. 1892
ITO THE EDITOR OF st. Nicholas: Will you please
send me Mr. Harry Kiefers address was sergeant
in company of the One Hundred and Fiftieth
Bucktails P. W, and can testify to the accuracy
of his 'Recollections.'
81 headed that squad of men who recaptured the
One Hundred and Forty ninth colors but / was
badly wounded through the head just before l
reached them and was left on the field for dead.
Every respectfully,
John c. KENsILL
Late Sergeant Company T, One Hundred and
Fiftieth P. V. (Bucktails)."
1t is worthy Of note in connection with this Incl
dent, and a remarkable turn in the Kaleidoscope
Of affairs, that the artist who is illustrating these
Recollection" served throughout the war on the
confederate SIDE that his regiment was inmediotelu
opposed to Mr. Riefer's at Gettysburg, and that he
Unessed the Scrimmdge for the c0lorS so graphically
described in the text. 1t is indeed strange coin
cidence that two soldiers of the opposing armies
should only eighteen years later be coupled as au-
thor and illustrator of account of the very battle
in which they fought against each ether when the
ranks were often not a stone throw apart 1--WE
were near enough to each other then" said the ar
tist grimly, while recurring to the battle day. in
the office of ST. Nchoos,- you might say just across
the fence from each other and rather too near for
comfort; and he heartily assented to a remark of
the publisher that "the kind of cuts he was making
now was much better than those he made then"
The only fault which Mr. Kieffer's correspondents
ind with his narrative is its modest failure to do
Justice to his own very credtable share in the events
described. For his army was not merely that
of drummer-boy; and other good authorities as
cribe to him gallantry and faithfulness which he
chooses to forget in his own narrative His Rec
elections moreover, evince the true generosity of
good soldier. Though pervaded by the spirit of
the army to which he belonged, they contain moth
ing to awaken or foster sectional spirit in any part
Of the country But picture of the realities of
camp and battle field, they have hardly been sur
passed. The succeeding chapters it is announced,
will be fully equal in interest to any already pub
lished and the reader IS soon to journey with the
army through the campaigns of Virginia and into
the pits in front Of Petersburg.
