The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1899-10-22

From this 1t will be seen that, while the
total imports in 1889 were 1880 25S gallons
last year they reached no less than $780,
1876 gallons, or practically double what
they we're ten years ago. The consumption
of Irish whisky increased by 1250 600 gall
Ions, while the increased consignment Of
Scotch was. nearly 100000 gallons. A sim
gular fact, and one that is occasionally
lost sight of, is that there is consider
able trade In whisky between Ireland and
Scotland. Ireland sends 10 Scotland a
great and increasing quantity of spirits
II cannot be said that Scotsmen prefer
"Usquebaugh" 10 Mountain Dew" but
the 100000 gallons which they buy from
Ireland must be disposed of somehow
There is some Scotch whisky sent to Ire
land but the quantity is small; last year
1t amounted 10 only 22,0OO gallons.
As to the more general consumption Of
Scotch, as compared with Irish, whisky in
England several causes are assigned. The
chief of these is the superior energy with
which the Scotch manufacturers pushed
ts1eir goods Formerly Irish whisky held
the lead but the Irish distillers we're in
clined to take things easy. and the keen
Scotchmen soon cut into their trade. Then.
again. 1t was said that there was a change
in the public taste. but the probabilities
are that with the brisk demand. too new
whisky was sold. and people ceased TO care
for H. and preferred the better matured
Scotch. The increased sale of Irish whis-
XIV would seem to indicate that a some
what similar change Is now about to begin
with regard TO the favorite Scotch. The
Irish disdlleries and bonded warehouses
hold great stocks of whisky which many
people fancy IS better matured than some
of that exported from Scotland. At all
events. Messrs w. & A. Gibley, who prob
ably sell more whisky than any other sin
gle firm in England. report that for the
first time in many years they sold more
Irish whisky than Scotch in 1898. The TO-
tai quantity OF spirits on which duty was
paid in the United Kingdom last year was
l6,6l6.6A gallons.
As 10 the respective merits of Scotch and
Irish whisky, the best guide is the taste OF
the Individual The great distinction be-
tween the two spirits Is that irish IS what
IS known al a self" whisky. while Scotch
is a blended whsky-that is. the Scotch
dlsuller or merchant obtains by the mixing
q different qualities together the same OBJ
ject as Is achieved by the Irish distiller m
the process Of manufacture. There are two
kinds of spirit, "potS and patent" which
are very different in cost and qu5 lily. The
hrst-named is the natural whisky made
ffcm pure malt or malt and raw grain The
patent whisky Is pure alcOhol without what
distllcrs call body or flavor" IL can be
made from the cheapest raw groin, and IN
dan ""rn Is largely used IN ITS production
In Scotland the pot" distillefs are nearly
an devoted to the production OF pure malt
whisky. very Chick" and fun favored

silver ores. All these mines are noted for
the amount of gold they have produced
and are producing, as this end of the VEN
carries much more gold than the end on
which the other famous mines are situat-
ed. Cedro and Cardones, especially, nave
big bodies developed. which carry a big
percentage of gold. South from Cardones,
and on the same vein, which IS here or
an immense width, are Canales, Camacho,
San Viucente and several others noted for
their rich gold ores, and on which an
American company is soon to begin erect
ing a gold mill of big capacity. West
from these is the mine Ell Santo Nino del
Najal. celebrated for the rich ana enor-
nous amounts of gold ore il has produced,
and which has a modern ten-stamp mill
operated by an American company. Still
further south are Villapando San Rafael,
Gaia, Dolores La Loca and a host of 9TH
ers. With the advent of modern machinery
and adequate capital with scientific work.
ing under able manag cement, this celebrat-
ed vein is bound TO make Guanajuato more
famous in the future for the gold it will
produce than it has been in the past for
the gold and silver it has produced.

This goes TO the blenders. who mix IL
with the patent or grain" whisky TO
produce the spirit as solid TO the consumer
In Ireland there are very few pure malt
distlleries; a proportion of raw grain Is
mixed with the malt in the mash-tun, and
the spirit distilled from this mixture Is
what Is termed self whisky-that is, a
whisky which can be sold without any
blending with the product of other stills,
and only requires maturing and the addi-
ton of water to fl 1t for consumption.
Irish whisky will not bear much blend
ing with patent whisky, which is a die
advantage from the point of cost. as pat
cnt whisky can be produced at about one
third the cost OF pot" spirit. Therefore,
the Scotch system of blending patent whis-
ky with heavy Highland malt whisky en-
ahles higher profit 10 be made than Is
;ossible under the Irish system Of distill-
ing self WHISTLES. II is difficult TO say
which system produces tne most whole
some spirit, but there is a growing body OF
opinior i'm favor Of self whisky as being
more paIatable and easy of digestion The
Irish manufacturers stick persistently to
the making OF the latter. and the great'
producers. such as the Dublin whisky dis
iIleries only make a spirit than can be
sold without blending. What will be the
effect upon the English character of tho
substitution of spirits for beer is another
question; but If the present rate Of in
crease Of the spirit trade Is maintained
England will presently have adopted whis-
ky as the national beverage, with, posi-
bly,, a development Of the characteristics
that distinguish the inhabitants OF the out
lying portions Of the United Kingdom

"sCOTCH" AND "IRIsH."
How They Differ and Their Respec-
tive Merits.

From the London Telegraph.
The whisky, both Scotch and Irish, now
pouring into England, has become an ever
increasing food The Irish stream IL IL
true, does not swell so rapidly as that from
over the border, but 1t is rising. and re
cent returns Indicate more rapid in
crease. short time since the construc-
tons of vat 10 contain 700 gallons of
Scotch whisky for the consumption of
members of the House of Commons was
regarded as another grievance inflicted on
The distressful country. But if reports
prove true, next recess win see provision
made on an adequate scale for the storage
OF an Irish supply sufficient to warm the
cookies of the heart" of every freshman
who comes to Westminster Irish is to have
a vat all to Itself. II is a remarkable
thing that in their increasing demands
for whisky, our legislators give proof Of
how accurately they represent the national
taste. The growth of whisky drinking in
England is extraordinary and points to a
great change in the habits of the people
In 1898 it was double what It was in 1889
and the increase has since been steady
and continuous Judging by the state
mems that have appeared, people think
that there has in recent years been only
change i'm taste, that Scotch whisky was
substituted for Irish. While that may be
partially true, the fact remains that there
has been a steady growth in the con-
sumption of Irish spirits in England, and
Ireland sends more whisky TO this country
now than ever she sent at any previous
time. The imports have not increased so
rapidly as those from Scotland, but they
are more than a million and "A quarter
gallons annually above what they were
ten years ago. The following table viii
show the extent to which the appetite for
"Usquedaugh" has developed in the last
decade. 1t gives the imports in gallons
into England from Scotland and Ireland,
and the increase will be seen to be ex-
traordinaTy.

II originally belonged to the Basutos It
has been suggested that the Beers have
offered to give il back in return for any
service the nation may render them in
the struggle
The Basutos are not drilled lighting men
like the GhourkaS They follow the me-
thods OF the primitive children of the for
est and night from cover. That makes
them dangerous for a well-dfiued army
as alb Americans know VINO have read how
the Indians defeated Braddoek in the val
ley of the Wyoming before the Revolution

II VIII be interesting to watch the meet
ing of these hardy fellows with the dan
gerouS little Gnourkas Clubs against
knives. on the first look seem TO favor
the latter. but the big Basutos wear heavy
shields, which will Withstand the thrusts
OF a heavy spear and turn aside swiftly

with consummate skill, exposing very lit
tie surface to attack while crushing down
on their adversaries with their tremen-
dous war clubs. If the Zuus and other
tribes of like nature fan in line with these
Basutos, as seems probable the little
Indians will meet worthy foes.
GhOurkas Little and Broad.
The Ghourkas as race are little, broad
shoutdered men. They form a part of the
regular English army in India. They are
usual light suit suitable for the sunny
cline but no amount Of instilled English
ideas and no amount of English dr. Hing
have been able as yet TO convert them to
the use of the rifle or the field gun alone
They stick to their big two-edge knife,
a weapon which they use with fearful re-
suits on an enemy Al close quarters. The
chief delight of their life is TO get into
3 regular rough and tumble fight where
guns are useless and only quickness and
the long knife count. When England first
fought in India the Ghourkas were their
most hated foes Woe to the British
square that could not stop with its guns
the onrush of the little men as they ran
into close quarters.
Stabbing left and right with a strength
that was simply wonderful avoiding the
clumsy bayonets of the redcoats, these
Ghourkas were bound to leave their mark
wherever they went However, as time
went on, the Ghourkas began to frater-
nize with their ancient enemies until the
colonial policy of old England put them
into a khaki uniform and turned the
deadly blade against the foes of the crown
These little men, indeed. will be useful
to England in the coming struggle, for the
Transvaal has 600 miles of border exposed
at every point with several hundred thous-
and natives waiting the first opportunity
to sweep down not only on the British
soldiers, but also on the Beers themselves.
