Generally speaking, spirits ‘ are consumed in the north, where cold and wet climates prevail, and wine in the south. In Russia Spirits are almost the omfly drink. In Germany, the Baltic provinces drink little or no wine, but prefer spirits with some beer; while the southern provincesâ€"Alsace-Lor- raine, Bavaria. and Badenâ€"consume a considerable quantity of wine as well as much beer. In France the staple beverage of the provinces bordering on the Mediterranean is \\ me, which ‘ boheap there, but the colder depart- .m'ants of northern France drink far jmore spirits. The same difference of taste distinguishes northern and southern Italy. Beer is, of course, the staple drink in England, and spirits in Scotland and. Ireland. ? France is the country where the con- sumption of wine is largest, and also, generally speaking, the country where the production is largest too, al- though of late years the production. in Italy has sometimes exceeded it. In the United Kingdom the consumption of wine in. 1896 reached 15,776,000 gal- lons, but this was comparatively little when contrasted with last year’s con- sumption of beer, which exceeded 1,- 200,000,000 gallons, or thirty gallons for every member of the population.

These circumstances are certainly worth investigating, so as to discover whether they are due to the spread of ï¬empera-nce principles or to the trade depression which, has existed for some time. The United States fiscal author- ities attribute it to the latter cause. and state that they look forward to improved receipts if the promised im- provement in business cinditions is even partially realized.

The suggestion is made that these var- ieties of brandy should be stamped or labelled for export, so as to distin- guish them. and thus recover some of the reputation which French brandies at one time enjoyed. The facts adduced in relation tothe United States are somewhat remark- able. It cannot be considered, the re- port states, a large beer drinking na- tion any more than it can beconsidered a large wine drinking nation. The pro- duction and consumption of spirits has been for some years past decreasing; in fact, it may be said generally that of the three alcoholic beverages, the consumption of wine and spirits is dis- trnxctly diminishing, while the consump- tion. of beer has only kept pace with the increase of population. stances; hence French brandy has suf- fered much in public estimation. The French divide their alcohol into four classesâ€"alcohol ethylique, made from the grape; alcohol prophylique. made from the refuse of wine or from other fruit; alcohol ‘hutylique, from molasses or beet root; and alcohol amylique, from potatoes or corn. All except the first are progressively noxious in the order named. indeed, poisonous in some Durham Tanneri has been- on the increase. - . Most of the spirits drunk in the Uni- ted! Kingdom are made here; thus out of a total consumption of 40,000,000 gallons last year only 8,200,000 gallons were imported.
