Gath, in the New York Tribune, says:
General George A. Sheridan, whose
career in Indiana l mentioned briefly last
week, is one of the most entertaining
conversationalists in the country. l met
him up town the other night when he
was discussing intoxicants. He said:
at is o singular state Of affairs that
there is no nation on the face OF the
globe, so far as known, that has not an
intoxicant of some kind. l had the curl.
osity once to go into an investigation OF
that question in a very thorough way,
and my statement is the result OF very
careful study. The Indians, before we
began to furnish them with fire-water,
knew of a plant from which they made a
drink that was intoxicating. 1t had a
bulb in the center at the root and long
leaves from which the sap concentrated
in the bulb. 1t was then expressed from
the bulb and drank. The natives in
Louisiana as far back as 1880 raised a
sugar plant from which they expressed
the juices and made sugar and from that
a sweet rum. The Mexicans have a re.
markable drink. 1t is made from a plant
that grows in the country. They skin a
pig and tie up the hide ut the ends.
They fill it with the juice from this
plant and then sew up the belly and let
it ferment. 1t makes a delicious bever-
age. You might drink q gallon OF it at
night without feeling more than a mo-
mentary exhilaration. But when you
woke up the next morning you would be
more g~loriously drunk than ever before
in your life, and it would take forty.
eight hours or so to get over it,"

men are deserving of a pension, every
