the trade. which, by-the-way. has only been

the last twenty years. AS matter OF cours"
the supply business Is almost as old as the
Nation itself. but II remained for the demand for
new and improved machinery and appliances to

The revival Of brewing after the War Of the
Revolution was due in some measure to legls'
lative restrictions put upon rural distilleries OF
strong spirits. which eliminated in the Whis-
KEY Rebellion and to some degree was
influenced and encouraged by the movement
inaugurated by Dr. Benjamin Rush In favor OF
the more liberal use Of malt liquors. instead OF
spirits. from a moral and economic point OF
view.
When Wouter Van Twiller summoned the
burghers of Observation-Disclosures to participate IN
his foaming denunciation Of the British. the cir
cumscrbed area Of Bowling Green was plenty
large enough to accommodate them all. and
the single barrel Of beer held ammunition
enough for their ridiculous declaration Of war.
If now after 260 years Of growth. the munich
pal toastmaster of Greater New-York should
issue a like patriotic summons to the almost
900 600 Of people that dwell within its borders.
