VI Luf lO,Of0,UUU gallons FORMING the
total English consumption in 1881, nearly
one-half was supplied from France, one
third from Spain, One-ffth from Portugal
and 'the remainder scattering The
vintage Of Italy and Hungary promises to
be good; that Of Madeira excellent. In
Germany the contrary appears to be the
CASE In Portugal the outcome Is I'M
certain, as the phylloxera have done
much damage. The sherry vintage in
Spain causes some anxiety. though the
blending processes employed 10 maintain
the quality Of Spanish sherries will prob
ably prevent the consumer from learning
the exact result. The production Of the
French vintage for the past three years
together but equaled that Of 1875, and il
is believed that the product Of 1873 will
not exceed that Of last year. In Cham
payne and Burgundy the prospects are
bad, while in the claret district Of the
Medoc the phylloxera and a bad season
promise a deficiency both in quantity and
quality. Mention &anade Of the anomaly
OF France, the heaviest wine producing
country importing IN 1881 no less than
lI6,WO,OOJ gallons of wine, to which was
added 100000 gallons made from
raisins grown in the Levant. The outlook.
IN brief does not promise full supplies Of
cheap French claret, of which the United
Kingdom takes so much. Mentioni is made
that there is no reason TO doubt the posi-
bility Of American, or other wines than
those given in the table above, somefday
supplying a portion of the European de-
mand, owing to the growing ravages on
the continent by the phylloxera, oidium,
etc. This is not believed more improbable
than it once was that American corn
should be relied on 10 supply the de-
ficiency in European crops.

The Wine Crop Of Europe.

The London Wine and Spirit News of
September 9 contains some interesting
data concerning the wine-producing coun-
tries of Europe and the prospects for the
wine crop o. 1SS2. This Is rendered timely
by the fact that the present week, to-
gether with the two succeeding, consIi-
tutes the season for gathering the
grapes in the countries referred TO. The
wine products of the Cape Of Good Hope,
Australia and America, are not consid-
cred, as they have but little effect on the
English wine trade. Six European coun-
tries are not wine producers. Those which
are have for a few years averaged as fol-
lnuo.

The President appointed Commission, con-
trolled by Tariff men, to revise ana perfect
the tariff That seems TO us,-in spite OF mnch
adverse criticism, - essentially right. III he
had wanted to change the principle OF the
tariff, he might well enough have ap-
pointed revenue reformers. or free-traders.
But he didn't want to change the principle
of the tariff, and he knew Congress did not
and the Country did not.
The tariff we have is a protective tariff.
What the critics want is a revenue tar

the Country doesn't want that The Republl-
can party has always opposed it, and the

THE OHIO OUTLOOK.

There is little occasion for Republican anxiety
about Ohio. The State is all right as usual.
The Republican Convention was one of the
most harmonious and aggressive bodies which
have met in the State for some time. On the
temperance question, which some timid souls
feared bad brought the party to the verge of
defeat, the delegates were practically Of one
mind. Instead of being alarmed, they were
convinced that the course Of the party had not
only been right, but had also been polite.
They took no step backward, but declared in
favor of going straight ahead on the path
marked out. All the speeches made were IN
favor of the two main objects Of the previous
winters temperance legislation-the taxation
of the liquor traffic and the closing of saloons
on Sunday. There were no speeches on the
other side, and no attempt to represent any
other view in the resolutions. These questions,
therefore, are likely to be the leading issues
Of the coming campaign.
There has been q general misunderstanding
concerning the scope Of the recent decision of
the Supreme Court of the State declaring tie
Pond bill unconstitutional The common be-
lief is that the decision was aimed at the pro-
visions of the bill which levied tax. This
was not the fact One of the judges explains
to the Editor of The Cincinnati Gazette that
the Court believes unanimously IN the const-
nationality of taxing the traffic to any extent
and that the Legislature may make the fail
ure to pay the tax misdemeanOr punishable
by imprisonment. What the Court decided 10
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1882-06-12

he unconstitutional was the provision requir-
ing each liquor seller to file bond pledging
himself to abide by all the requirements OF
the act. That was construed by the Court as
license, and as being, therefore, violation
of the constitutional inhibition. 1t is under
stood that the Pond bill, amended so rs to ac-
cord with the opinion. of the Court, will be re-
enacted by the next Legislature. The Germans,
whose votes are regarded with so much ap-
prebension. are said to have no objection to a
specific tax. What they objected to was the
bond provision, which amounted to closing OF
all the smaller saloons whose keepers would
not be able to give the bonds required.
The Republicans will go before the people
of the State on the issue of quiet Sunday
and a taxed liquor trade. 1t is difficult to see
how the Democrats expect to profit by attack
ing that position. Opposition by them will be
simply n declaration in favor of free rum and
no Sunday and there can be no doubt about
the attitude of the people of Ohio on that
question. The Democrats might gain few
votes in the cities but the rural districts would go
overwhelmingly against them. There is evidence
that the Temperance people are, many OF
them, satisfied with the attitude OF the Repub-
licans. and are disposed to fOreGo their annual
mistake of running separate ticket for the
sole benefit of the Democrats. They have
complained, heretofore, that the Republicans
of Ohio have been behind their party in other
States in the advocacy of temperance princi-
pies, and the absence of any legislation re-
stricting liquor selling on Sunday has been a
strong argument in defence of their position
This complaint cannot be made any longer.
The Republicans have declared their purpose
TO stake their fortunes in this campaign on
temperance issues alone. We do not believe
that the Temperance party of Ohio is made up
of people so obtuse as to decline to seize the
opportunity thus presented to them for aiding
in the advance of their cherished principles

lTONEY 1ND BUSINESS.

The Treasury at New-Yorll paid out
81, 691, 53s in gold in excess of its specie re-
ccipts, after Tuesday of last week, though the
bank statement showed an increase OF
only $GS2,O00 IN specie reserve. This was
partly because $2,264,150 in gold was ex-
ported, though the effect on last weeks bank
averages was loss of only $1,62C,O00. The
more important cause was that the full effect
of Treasury disbursements late in the week
WAS not felt in Saturdays statement, the effect
upon bank averages-if no specie was counted
in two places on the same day-having been
only $2.273,76O. The result of these two
movements. therefore, was an addition of only
$500, 0C0 to the specie average Of the banks,
and as their reported increase was but little
greater, ii does not appear that there were any
considerable receipts Of specie from the into
rior But the banks must have been stronger in
specie than their report indicated, 50 far is their
condition was affected by exports and Treasury
disbursements, by about 80, $50, 900 at the close
of business on Saturday The Iega!-tender
movement from the interior continued. The
banks reported a gain of 1906, 500 in currency,
although the Treasury balances average
S136. 725 larger than those of the previous
week. No doubt this continuing influx made
the banks stronger in legal-tendcrs also, at the
close of the week, than their statements indi-
Gated.
But it cannot be said that the monetary sit
uation is encouraging. At this season the
banks need to accumulate a large reserve, in
order to meet the heavy demands in the fall.
Last year the banks gained $29,000,000 from
April l to July 10, and accumulated a sur
plus reserve of 100000, which was
changed to a deficit in just five weeks, 50 rapid
was the outflow. In 1850 the banks gained
$27, GOO, 900 from April II to July II, and
accumulated a reserve of SIS, 100000, which
was changed to n deficit before the year closed,
Notwithstanding the enormous imports of gold
In 1879, the banks gained over $23.000,000
from April to August 2 their surplus
reached its maximum, $4,000, 900, July 8,
but was changed to deficit by October This
year the banks have gained very little
thus far, though the time for increase is near
lv over and the fall movement may be eX
pected to begin earlier than usual, on account
of the short crop last year. The following
shows the amount of reserve held at the lowest
point in April and at the present date for
four years, and the reserve held at the high
est point in July or August in 1881, 1850 and
1879:

lions occur for single week or TWO "i'ioue

hope that the downward tendency OF prices IN
this country has already affected orders, and
will affect future receipts Of goods from ABROAD
The exports of cotton last week were %, loo
bales, against 52,67G for the corresponding
week last year; nor has the movement OF bread-
stuffs increased. but there has been little I'M
provement in provisions, and the shipments Oh
petroleum continue to far surpass even the I'M
precedented movement of last year. The dry
goods trade is dull, though it is stated that
hopeful advices as to the growing crops have
produced better feeling as to the future.
The failure of banking house Of some i'm

portunity to disturb the markets one day more

but to offer rewards for the originators of the

hastily and very often mistakenly infers that
the losses have been borne by the firms that
were formerly conspicuous in dealing in these
stocks The general soundness of business,
even in Wall Street where speculation has
been most rampant, was shown by the fact
that failure like that Of Meeker Co.
brought no other disasters in its train, and
was Immediately followed by feeling of in
creased confidence. The danger this year is
not Sc much of panic or loss of confidence as
of actual exhaustion of the monetary supply
