Sir. this wine is not a luxury. It embraces the common Rhine wine consmued by Germans in this country. the poorer classes. who in their own country have bean in the habit of consuming it as a common beverage like water. So with the common red wine used by the poorer classes of French and German immigrants. These wines go upon no rich mans table whatever. he has a higher grade of wine. which may properly be considered a luxury. and he can justly be made to pay for it. I deny. however. that this class of wines is a luxury. or that it comes in competition with whisky.
