Germans have accomplished that task
among us, and made their national Dever-
age popular with all classes. 1t appears
singular that the English in coming to this
country should have abandoned their Ia
yorite ahome-brewed ale" and have lost, ap-
parently, the taste for%nalt liquor. 1t Is sun
more singular that when the taste revived
it sought qualification not in English ale"
but in German lager beer. Mr.. MaxwelPs
report informs US that during the past year
Cincinnati manufactured 76962l barrels OF
beer. against 6s2, S6I in 1S80-S1, and 467,-
100 in 1928. Adding the breWiDgs at
Newport and Covington, on the opposite
bank of the Ohio, the production amounted
to 827. PSI barrels; the aggregate production
of the three cites has increased 31O,467 bar
rels, or over sixty per cent. during the last
seyeu years. Adding receipts from other
places makes the total amount S43,225 bar
rels. Shipments were made of 24S,21 bar
rels, and 10000 barrels were bottled; the
stock remaining on hand is 547, l2S barrels
or 28I. 2IS. 200 glasses. Cincinnati beer ID
shipped off 10 South and Central America
Mexico and the West Indies; in this coun-
try more was taken by the South than in
previous years. The general price was IS a
barrel. By new refrigerstiDg process the
work Of tor of ice is now done at an ex-
pense of 81 so, which is great advantage
to the brewers.

EGvPTtAK FINANCES.

From an article in the current number Of
the Co)emporory Reuieic ii appears that Egyp.
tian finances rest on the land tax, which
averages s. per acre of srable land. The
crop depends so much on the Nile that one
foot difference in food-level is worth SlO,-
100000; but, taking a fair average OF about
100000 acres, the value of the maize,
wheat, cotton, rice and other crops may be
estimated at $224,OOO.OO0. Great Efforts
have been made of late to supply arti-
fetal means for irrigation in dry or de-
ticient. Seasons, such ss sieam-pumps
and water-wheels. The Arabs have great
prejudice against WindmiIIs, or much more
might be accomplished in THE direction
The customs revenue of the country is small,
being about S5,0OO,OO0. The railways and
telegraphs bring in about $6,25O,0oO. The
government expenditure is limited to ST..
100000, any balance being devoted to the
payment of debt. The tribute to Turkey ia
more ihaa eight per cent. of the gross
revenue.

LURRICATING THE CONGR EssIORAL
DERRICK.

1t seems that Gen. james r. Chalmers ia
to renew his acquaintance with grief. His eff
forts 10 retain a seat in Congress is good
deal like the pursuit of knowledge under
difficulties. When he makes his appearance
for the purpose OF taking his seat in the
new Congress, he will iud the stays, guyr,
pulleys and tackles of the congressional der
rick fabricated and ready to lift him out.
Casey Young will be there TO protest
sin the name OF the civilization Of the nine
tenth century" against the admission Of
Chalmers. Curses, like chickens, come home
TO roost. During the canvass Chalmers
went bowling through the district for "a
fair count and free ballot" bu. it seems he
did everything in his power, aided by Jay
HubbeIPs corruption fund, to prevent a free
ballot. Indeed, go far as he and his
supporters were concerned, the election was a
mockery and farce. Ham Carter, the Re-
publican candidate,'it is said, was bulldozed
during the entire canvass, and on the day OF
election was driven from the polls-forced to
flee in order TO protect his life from an in
furiated mob, that, under The pretense of a
"free ballot" were ready to murder veteran
Republican@pr the crime of exercising the
prerogstive of a freeman. These marvellous
champions OF "a free ballot" were guilty Of
the only outrages committed in the district.
Chalmers's hired bullier, paid by Hubbelfs
corruption fund, used every effort to intimi-
date and to prevent "a free ballot" and to
scandslize "the civilization of the nineteenth
century" During the canvass Chalmers
60 Messed that he had aided in carrying cleo
lions by fraud, aud it seems his former
methods were adopted on Tuesday last.
Now that the Democrats have a
majority in the II ansa-~f sveHtallves, Tor
.4-sSsaKe of the "civiliz alton of the nine
teenth century" it is hoped they will not fell
low the shameful precedent established by
the Republicans of the present Congress,
who rejected every contesting Democrat
without regard to law, precedent or justice
But if it appear that there has been such
bulldoziug and intimidation as 10 prevent
that Stree ballot" for which Gen. Chalmers
30 often prated during The canvass, the
congressional derrick should hoist him
out of his seat. There is nothing SO
potential in preventing ga fair count and
free ballot" in elections as the use OF
money, and the new Congress would be JUS
tilted in rejecting every man elected
by the use of Hubbell's corruption
fund. The American people decided
two things last Tuesday in very emphatic
manner. One was that ] sy Hubbell and his
blackmsil are no longer to be tolerated; and
the other is that bulldozing by United States
supervisors, in the interest of particular can
didates for Congress, must cease. With this
view OF the verdict, we are prepared to give
Gen. Chalmers thimbleful of "cow-itch" for
his chances, provided he succeeds in getting
certificate. Col. Manning will contest, of
course, and ii the bulldoziug and intimida-
ton be as disgraceful as reported, Chalmers
will be "derricked out" in very short order.

The London Daily Netcs says that the WELL
known poe. and novelist, Bjornsterne-Bjorn-
son, who has made no secret OF his deter
mination to try and overthrow the Berna-
dohe dynasty in Norway, to abolish the
union between that country and Sweden, and
to establish in Norway a federal republic,
has returned to the scenes OF his iabors des-
pite the Kings interdict, and is prosecuting
his Iabors with more than bis usual skill
and energy. The struggle between Norway
and the Swedish government commenced
when the Storthing OF the former country
called IN question the Kings right OF abso-
Lutte veto, but the difference would probably
have been smoothed over il the writer,
bJornsterne-D JornsoD, ~ilo se-sidsrsd him
self insulted by something the King had
said, had not challenged his sovereign. For
this he was sentenced by the court of justice
to years imprisonment, but he escaped TO
Germany, and has been allowed TO retn----~
Norway and resume hiv campaign sgalnst
the monarchy. As the general elections are
impending in Norway [they have since re-
suited in acrushing defeat of the government,
some four.fifths Of the new deputies being
Republicans King Oscar, with the view OF
showing that there wac no truth in the report
that he intended to abolish the Norwegian
constitution and occupy the country with
the Swedish army, determined to go TO
Christiana himself, and his object in insur-
ing his life was to let the Norwegians under
stand that, though quite aware of the danger
he was mourning, he was not afraid of facing
his adversaries. Whether this attitude will
succeed in disarming the opposition yet re-
mains TO be seen; but if the Republican party
obtains M majority in the new Storthing, King
Oscars position will be very difficult one,
as the only power which he possesses is to
veto a measure twice, and the Swedish army
has no right 10 enter Norway.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE
Al Frankfort, Ky.-rhe city Hail and
Opesahouse Destroyed.

FRANKFORT, November ia fire broke
out at $50 O'Clock this afternoon in the
liyery-stable OF Lee & Morgan, caused by the
careles-ness OF a negro in putting away hay
with lighted pipe IN his mouth. The fire
spread rapidly on Ann street, the house ol
John T. Buckley being the next 10 go. The
efforts of the two fire-epgines were unavailable
to stop the flames. Mayor Taylor ielegraphed
to Lexington for an engine. The opera
house, belonging to The city, built at cost
of $40 900, was totally Destroyed, with a
portion oil the city records. The others
went down in the 6re-proof safe, which Is
now in the ruins. The posioffice is in the
same building. Buhr's new and beautiful
hotel was burned 10 the ground with
its contents. At 4:30 O'Clock the
flames were got under control, and the
r, quest for the Lexington engine counter
manded. During The FIRE Tom Lsnner had
his shoulder dislocated; the chief of the Ere
department, Mcclure was knocked down by
a bose-pipe aud his hand badly cut. Eogi-
neer Phillips, engineer OF the department,
had his hand badly mashed, and Percy
Smith, policeman, and Jas. Murray narrowly
escaped suffocation, saving the city T, cords.
While the ruins were still burning, Mayor
Taylor sent a dispatch to Louisville for an
architect TO come up, get The views of the
Council, and make plans for new hall in
place of the old one.

ELoauEsr rkrBurE TO THE souri,.

The Southern people are like the iguo-
rant client who never knew how badly he
had been treated until he heard his lawyer
piling on the sgony, for they do not seem
to appreciate their vast resources, the rich
ness of their soil, the mildness and health
fitness of their climate, and the variety OF
their products, until sketched and delineated
by strangers and political enemies. We
publish in another column an eloquent trib-
ute to the South by William d. Kelley, of
Pennsylvania, Republican, who in The past
has been malignant enemy of the Southern
people, and who fifteen years ago made
speech in this city vilifyiDg and
traducing the South. This change of
tone from derisIon and disparsgement
TO respect and praise shows that sectional
hatreds have been obliierated. No man can
read Judge Kelley's eulogy of the South
without emotions of pride for his sec
ton. The views expressed by him, COM
ing from the advocate OF high protective
tariff, are liberal. All parties seem to unite
in he opinion that the people are taxed too
much; that the tendency OF a plethoric
treasury is 10 foster all kinds of monopolies,
and that these are dangerous to the liberties
of the people. 1t is favorable omen when
such men as the distinguished protectionisl
of Pennsylvsnia recommends the repeal OF
all our internal taxes. 1t is hoped this is
not urged with the view OF increasing
the tariff on importations for the
purpose of protecting rich monopolies
at the expense of the people. The internal
revenue tax must be modified, for it is unjust
in some directions. For instance, The man
who produces tobacco has to pay taxes
before he can sell il, though at last ii
comes from the consumer. The tax on
whi.ky is popular tax, but the tax on both |
whisky and tobacco affects mainly the in |
terest Of the Southern aud Western States
What the great majority of Democrats strive |
for, North and South, is not destruction |
of he tariff, but its just and equitable regu-
latiop. There are many abuses that should |
be corrected. The internal revenue tax |
should be modified, and a reform ia the |
tariff that will, as far as possible, be just to
the masses Hitherto american industry |
and American workipgmen" have been
principally phrases applied 10 Northern in
dividuals and corporations. The South in
sists that the tilers of her field. and the
industry OF her farmers, along with the same
products and classes Esss and West, shall
share in the benefit and protection.

The Congressional River Committee, which
ia now en- rOute for the Mississippi with a
view TO investigating the plans and the
work of the River Commission, must be a
rather melancholy and unhilarious concern.
Chairman Burrows, of Michigan, with But
terWorth, OF Ohio, and Hazslton, of Wiscon-
sin, we're all blown 10 smithereens by the late
terrific tornado, and it will take a vast guam
tity OF "old Otard" and "Mum's extra dry"
TO inject anything like moderate degree Of
vital warmth into their disjecta membra 1t
strikes us that these gentlemen, just after
their disastrous expedition to the head
waters of that historic stream known on all
political charts as "Snlt river" are in about
as poor a condition TO investigate the Missis-
sippi river as DeLoDgs and his fellow-suf-
ferers, when thrown upon the desert region
of the Lena valley, would have been to OBJ
serve the transit OF Venus. We suggest that
the Hon. William r. Moore owes ii to his
discounted brethren to do the handsome
thing on their arrival here. He should at
least order a key of beer, box of Scotch
herring and few crackers for the delecta-
tioa of these shipwrecked mariners.

CONFEDERATE BONDS.

That telegram from London announcing a
"boomn in Confederate bonds is slightly at
tenusted. 1t looks msrselously like Folger's
decrease of values 10 the amount of $40 000,-
600" In twenty-four hours as the result of
the Ohio election in October. The elections
in thirty three States occurred last Tuesday,
the 9TH instant, and yet this London tele-
gram, dated the nsxt day, the 9Th instant,
cooIIy announces that "among the minor ef-
fecis of the Democratic gains there have
been transactions in Confederate bonds of
considerable amount, and, during The past JssO
days, they have increased in extent, at firm
quotationen The fellow who got up that
telegram deserves advancement. He should
be the Peter Funk of mock auction, Ii the
OHIO election in October "depre ciated the
great values of thescountry more than s40,-
600, 600" in twenty-four hours. as Secre-
tary Folger solemnly declared, VIII at
ought to be the depreciation of the "great
values" aforesaid three days after the recent
Democratic deluge? Perhaps it was the
great depreciation OF government and rail
road bonds that created the "frm quota
Iionsn of Confederate bonds in London. We
shall expect 10 see pork go down to ten cents
a barrel, and beef aud -four thrown in for
laenioppe.

PROGRESS OF = aUAcK nEp,o,nE.

Many OF our readers can remember how,
thirty years ago, at the market stalls and in
the drug stores little bottles of what was
called Crock Oir' were for sale. The label
ON the bottles assured The purchaser that
the yaluab lie substance the bottle contained
was kindly gift of nature to man, and was
a sovereign remedy for toothache, rheuma-
tism, neuralgia and kindred ills. How little
those who invested tht If quarter in the
wonderful rock oil OWNED the real wonders
The remedy for rheum atism hid up undi-
vulged. That rock oil is Today the famous
coal oil, or petroleum, which has made vast
fortunes and lights up cottages and palaces
in every quarter of the world. We have
received copy of the census bulletin con-
tanning statistics of the manufacture OF
petroleum during the census year, from
which We learn that capital
OF $27 ,395, TAG was invested, 1869 per-
tous employed, $4,3sl ,572 paid in wages,
and 73I ,533, 127 gallons produced, worth
SIC, 340, 3SI, in this now famous article
The manufacture employs steam machinery
10 the amount OF 1874 horse power, build
ings to the value of 81 SOS, 2SS, machinery
amounting to S,7S7 ,99s. and gives products
10 the amount of S4S,705,2Is. Righoline,
gasoline, napths, parafine oil, psrsfiine wax,
petroleum ointment, and many other prod
uctA are specified in the census bulletin, all
from the once little esteemed crock OIL"
The petroleum ointment intimates that Pc
troleum has not yet given up its old reputa-
ton as a curer of human ills.

A DARING ATTEMPT
To Assassfnafe Justice Lawson, who
Presided at the Trial OF L.
Dryer Gray.

DUBLIN, November IL "A daring attempt
was made this evening to assassinate Justice
Lawson, who presided at the trial of E.
DIVER Gray. The judge was passing through
Glare street, on his way 10 his club, when a
mau who was on the opposite side of the
street, acting in suspicious manner, crossed
over and pnt his hand in the breast of his
coat policeman near at hand seized the
man, and found upon him revolver. The
prisoner was taken 10 the station, where
he gave the name of Corrigan, although he
was recognized as another person by num-
Der OF the police force. 1t is expected other
arrests will follow. The mao arrested was
not connected with the recent trials, but is
reported TO be ticket-of leave man, and the
act is said TO be the outcome of personal
malice. The police say Corrigan was con-
victed of a poliiicsl, not criminal offense.
The arrest is expected 10 lead 10 the discov-
cry cf important Information about other
