New Yontc, April 8. The Philadelphia Press has drawn editorial attention to tho recent expose made by tho Fronch Government of tho tricks of tho French wino trade, and a widespread sensation among thoso who have been priding themselves upon their exclusivo use of imported wines is tho lesnlt. The Press says: Foreign dealers have turned upon the I'icnch Government for its recent exposure of tho tricks of the wine trade. Careful scientific analysis, recently ma lo throughout all tho exporting entrepots of France, hnvo shown that not a drop of pine wine of tho Burgundy or Doideiiux market is now sent out to American consumers. Supplementing the government tests, wo have had of tho most ehiiu')tivc description from our own and consuls, corroborating every of the French uis. Hut as Burgundy and Bordeaux retain precedence In the markets, the gnat houses of Mncm, Uheiins and Bordeaux have uiilie.itutiugly placed their Mm upin nil 'oris of decoctions.

The ha -e unite 1 to protest the i,f the 'ubiicated wines, ami it is not unlikely tint t..o sub will be siiiiiotl.id over by usponsion "f the labors of tho committee. Ameiicaiis, however, have had ample wiirning. Most of the wine drunk in this country is either the direct -product of our home vineyard-, or it is u thinly disguised mixtiue of tin- strong li iii Is of the South, where such delicate flavor nnd bouquet asaic marked essentials of the French wines are unknown. The evteit to which this shameless tiallic has oeen carrie 1 should have the effect of establishing American wine upon every table where wine is used. For whilo our re-l nnd white wines lack the boiquet ami fino finish of the thoy are uncompiirnbly superior to tho Spanish jiell. Tiie tiuth is there is a good d"nl i.f sham and Miobhcry in the biiiiue3 of wine drinking, as in of other sort". Millions of bottles of no with the labels of fiHiinus cell.irs are -old and drunk in this c untry, which possibly be the product of the plains of Champagne. 1'vun tne tine brands of cognac conceal a well undorstoo I a lullcialion, which lemovcs the best product of Franco from its ancient superiority. American dealers loso in the end by cuoouruaing this dishonest system, because they virtually close the market to the ninny excellent wines we arc now in this country. assistant si:eiii:TAxi' ;i:w A Strong rrobnhlllty That lie Will Itcsin Soon. Wamiinoton, April 0. Assistant Secretary New arrived here yesterday from Indianapolis,, and hist night ho received several callers at his rooms at the Williard. The papers hero say ho intends his position as Assistant Secretary, and that he feels the cut given iiim by Grosluinrs appointment very keenly. Said ono of his most intimate ft Sends yosterduy : " I have no doubt Mr. New will resign his position in the Treasury. Ho is the man to do it, and with duo rcsnect to his dignity I shall adviso him to do it." " How soon?" I asked. "Not until this breeze quiets down. But I would not be at all surpi ised if he should resign to-morrow, although 1 do not anticipate it under a mouth. Ho is the kind of man to resent a cut of this kind, and he is not afraid to speak of it cither; ho is 'out and out' himself. I don't believe there's a Kopublican of proraiuenco in the State, not oven excepting Grcsham himsolf, but that believes in his own mind that Mr. Now has not been fairly treated by the Administration. He was the first man of ptominenco in Indiana to espouso the Arthur causo, and he took the position he now occupies with tho promise of getting a Cabinet ollico. Nover mind, there will be a day of reckoning." A paper says it is rumored that Secretary Folior intends going out of tho Cabinet in a short time, nnd that ho engineered the appointment of Qrosham as Postmaster General in older to provent John C. New succeeding as Secretary of the Treasury. National I.nnil League Convention. I'liiLAiiRU'iiiA, April 9.

A dispatch fiom Grcenvillo gives the following particulars of the disaster on Friday night: When the hotel fell tho and cries from the inmates, who were crushed in tho iiiins, wero appalling, but the fire, which at once started in the ruins, spiead ntpidly and mm all dies weie hushed, tho names having done their deadly work.

Mr. Denton escaped death by a second falling of walls, which lolcascd him. Une man cut his throat when ho found tho tlamcs burning him. The cnuse of the calamity is uncertain. It is thought that an explosion of powder in Armstead's hardware store blew out tho west wall, causing the ontiro building to full. The adjoining buildings were destroyed. Mr. D. Piuit l nved like a maniac when ho knew of his mother's horrible death, and it required several strong men to save him from plunging headlong into tho il.vnics. A telegintn was sent to Sherman for a fire engine, which came at the speed of a milo a minute, arriving at daylight. For -six hours it poured ti stream nf water into the ihime.s, but too late to save any lives. - Mc'incier nml Viniiuv to Do n E.iltlo ICIlio(lromlu. Sr. Mo.. April 0.
