Admitting his description of the process of manufecture to be correct, which I cheerfully do, his statements differ from mine (n relation 10 that branch of the subject but a little. Tho writer evldently has a thorough knowl. edge of the process of the sugar manufucture, and I can make no objection to lis deseription of the way {n which it 1s done. We differ fnour statcments simply in relation to the proportion of starch (grape) sugass In the coffee-supurs, I stated that I had come to the conclusion thnt tho coffec-sugars were made untirely of starch, by the use of sulpburie ncid, e eays that they are only In part, ind that they ure n mixture of cane snd starch sugars. Istand correeted, nnd admit that he {s right. But this partlul crror does not mar my argument in relation to their polsonous churacter. o concedes that glucose, or starch sugar, s made by the ald of sulphuric acid. He also con- cedes that the sulphurie acid will oxidize the tin of the veasel In which it Is made, 80 that there will bumore or lces of the sulphste of tin ln the sugar. He further acknowledges that It is polsonous. But he snysthat **it {6 never presunt in sutiiclent quan- tity to prove detrimental.” Ilero we take fusue. 1t lins been nscertained that there Is somo property in aweet milk that wall act on tin to euch an extent that, after standing severul houts In such a vensel, ita uss will provo an ireitant to the nlimentary It v also a well- ostablished fact that all acid fruts cannod in tin ato polsonous, If this is the case, how much more Mt sulphurle acld, or hydrochloricacld, volled 1n tin, oxldize it so a6 to render the sugar polson- ous!
