THE French Government is seriously €onsidering what steps to take to pre« vent the importation of deleterious articles of food and drink, or, at all‘ events, to limit it as far as possible. Amongthe latest systems of adulteraw tiou brought to light is that of’ trsnSa % forming “balm of Peru,” flour, chesnuts, and chalk into chocolate; and the manu- facture of wine without the interven~ tion of the grape. The manufacturer, .in the latter; instance, pours into the potato-juice, barley-juice sugar. yeast, vinegar, cream of: tartar, violetsroots, and elder blossoms (just to give it a bouquet), bleaching liquid, and glycer- me, The name of the wine depends upon the varying proportion in which these ingredients are used. Tm: existing extradition treaty bee tween Great Britain and the United States covers only seven crimesâ€" murder, assault with intent to commit murder,.piracy, arson, robbery, forgery, and the utterance ot ' forged papeis. These are found to be limited, and the Secretary of State has recommended to the United States-Gongi-eas that man» slaughter, counterfeiting, embezzlement ‘ larceny, perjury, rape, abduction, child~ stealing, kidnapping, burglary, criminal destruction of a vessel, andAmutiny and :tevolt ctr-shipboard, shall be added to the list, beiugembraced in all the re~ cent extradition treaties-recently made between Great Britain and. other Powers.
