LIQUOR MANUFACTURERS AND LABOR- We eame across some very curious and interesting statistics a few days since in the Irish World which we condense for our readers. It has been intimated that the liquors which were worth to the manufacturers in 1880 $144,000,000 cost the consumers $700,000,000, says the S. J. Mercury. What part of every $ 100 of this $700,000,000 went into the pockets of the laborers who produced it? About $2. Now compare this with the part of every $100 of the retail price of manufactured products in general in 1888 which went into the pockets of the laborers. It is found that $14 of every $100 of these arti eles reaches the laborer who produced then seven times as much as labor receives in the liquor industry. If the $700,000,000 spent for liquors had been spent in miscellaneous in dustries, labor instead of receiving $15,000,000 would have had $105, 000,000 or a clear gain of $90,000, 000. But some of the industries pay much better than the average of the whole. For instance, of the retail price of hardware or furniture of every ' $100, $24 went to labor to produce these fabrics. Of every $100 pr.id to the retailer for boots and shoes, $20 went to the laborers who made thetm. If this $700,000,000 had been apent Fn industries as profitable to labor as hardware and furniture, labor, instead of receiving $15,000,000 would have been paid $180,000,000 or a clear gain of $165,000,000. To put the matter in another light had the labor employed in manufac turing liquors been used in promis cuous manufacturing, instead of giving employment to 33,639 persons it would Have given work to 235,823. Or if it had been used in manufacturing hardware or furniture it would have given employment to 404,268 persons. Thus we see at the first end of the liquor business the balance is all aaainst the laborer. When we come A CENSURABLE BLUNDER. The Evening Telegram, of Portland, dated August 16, contains the follow ing: "The 6 o'clock vest side Southern Pacific passenger train, (from Corvallis), on coming into the city last evening, came near meeting with an accident which would in all probability have proved very disastrous. The facts are as follows: T. M. Stark, the tin roofer, bought from Seid Back one of the cottages standing in front of S. G. Reed's resi dence, on First street, and was having it taken from the site to a lot in South Portland. At 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon the mover had got the house into Whittaker street, on Second, and when the men quit work, to prevent teams from being injured, they ob structed the street with the heavy timbers used as trackage for the roll ers to slide on. These timbers, for some unknown i eason, lay across the railroad track which crosses Second street diagonally at that point, and ex tended on each side. There were several of them, and they were very heavy, being about six inches thick and ten inches in width. Whpn the even ing passenger came along, the en gineer, looking out, saw the obstruction just in time to stop his train less than ten feet from the timbers. The train men then got out, and after removing the obstruction, the throttle was open ed, and the train proceeded into town. The occuirence was witnessed by a number of parties, and, considering the fact that it is a grave offense sim ply to delay a train bearing the United States mail by placing ever so slight an obstruction on the track, it is to be wondered at that the timbers were put there. Had the engineer not seen the obstruction until a few seconds later, the engine and cars would have been thrown from the track, it is said, without a doubt, and as the side toward the river is an abrupt incline, the chances would have been gre that someone would have been badly hurt, if not killed. Such carelessness is reprehensible, and deserves popular censure. It is intimated in officia circles that the matter may terminate seriously for the persons who put the timbers on the track." It is curious how the name David runs through the principal incidents ?n the life of the late ex-Judge Terry. He was named David, and he killed David C. Broderick in a duel. One of Broderick's seconds was David D, Colton, and the duel was witnessed ivvtf0- ,; mn,i;t;nn is made by David T. Brewer, United States worse than the first.

Terry was killed by David Neagle, and J nstice Field's father and one of his brothers were baptized David.

There is no doubt that all the other Ehropean powers are in constant dread of the great Russia. This enormous power, moved by a central despotism without any accountability to its millions of sub jects, is a constant menace to the peace of mind of all Europe. It has its tentacles reaching out in every di rection, ready at any moment to draw in any weak nation needed for its ag grandizement. It is particularly watch ing' Turkey on the southwest and Persia on the southeast, the first open ing the way to the Mediterranean, the other to the Indian ocean. It will never rest until both these countries are swallowed and it gains an outlet in both these directions, unless in the meantime its own power is exploded into ten thousand fragments by in terior revolution. What is a remarka ble fact, is, that the head of this colos sal political power is himself no better than a prisoner in his own dominions, in abject terror of assassination by his own subjects. His only safety in the past has been in the army. Now this branch is becoming honey-combed with nihilism. When this turns against liim, no one can tell what teiible inter al upbeavings may take place within the very vitals of this strong and much-dreaded power of the north. James G. Blaine knows what he is about and he will see that the Uni.ed States loses neither dignity nor pres tige in the settlement of the Behrings sea dispute. The probabilities are that the: matter will be disposed of by peaceful measures, but if our ancient British enemy insists on wat the result will no doubt be that Canada will be come a part of the United States.
