PRESCRIPTION THE, ORDER OF
THE DAY

No one can read the official organ of Mon
day, and not find full evidence to show, that
the work Of prescription is TO proceed =
The mandate to the executioners has gone
forth and will be carried out. A pretext to
justify it is now sought for. The Globe
calls on its faithful adjuncts, who act s'by
authority" to lend their aid. 1t says, ave
must beg the favor of our friends, connected
with the press in the different States where
the Wings hold permanent, or have ACHE
we'd temporary ascendancy, TO make out
list Of the prescribed from office, under the
respective Wing regimes to which they have
been subjected"
Pitiful indeed! The President of the u .
States, through his organ, advertising for
informers to furnish him with the acts of
petty Justices Of the Peace, corporations of
boroughs, and selectmen of towns, on which
to found justification of his acts of vindic-
tlveness, prescription and intolerance
For ssch and no other purpose can this ssfa-
vor' which the Globe has ssbegged" from
its friends be asked.
We do not doubt, that the President will,
ere long, while looking around and smiling
at the distress and misery which he inflicts
on thousands of men, women and children,
exultingly exclaim in the language of the
hump-backed tyrant, Richard,
sNow by st. Paul,
The work goes bravely on.n

The LIQUOR LAw.-The following opin-
ion in regard to the validity of license OBJ
tanned after the passage of the Gallon Law,
is extracted from the charge of Judge Raw
lings to the Grand Jury Of Adams County.
aThe statute in the Revised Code which
authorized license for the keeping and
opening Of Inns, Taverns. and Houses of
Private Entertainment and selling and re-
failing Of vinous and spirituous liquors under
the quantity of quart, without license, is
repealed by an act entitled IAN act for the
suppression Of Tipping Houses, and to dis
Courage & prevent the odious vice Of drum
kenness, passed and approved the 9th day Of
February, 1885," which says ssthat it shall
be in force 60 days after the passage thereof
You will perceive BY the lst section Of said
act, that all laws heretofore in force in rela-
ton to Tipping Houses and authorizing the
keepers of Inns, Taverns or Ordinaries to
sell vinous and spirituous liquors in less
quantities than quart on obtaining I license
therefor, are repealed, but in the last section
of said act It says that It shall not be in force
for 60 days after its passage. The conse-
quence is that you will predicate your find
ing against those who have no license pre-
vious to the passage Of said law. The Clerk
Of the Probate Court will furnish ~ Nth !
| list of those ~ Obtained : lied = reea,l
previous to 10 passage Il = - who
have right = tsod vines Il Gfjeuous
liquors, and KEEP an Inn or 9atGl1 BY vir-
tue thereof. Those who have obtained Ii
cense since the passage thereof ore. subject
to indictment Or presentnent and therefore
demand your attention"

The National Intelligencer in the course
Of some remarks on the late decision of the
u. S. Supreme Court. on the great appeal
cases from Alabama, touching the rights g.
duties of corporations, forcibly describes Lo-
CO Focoism to comprehend "the levellinglor
pulling down principle, which processes to
contend only against artificial or unjust dis
tinctions amongst men, but ends in openly
making war against all the laws and estab-
lished usages of society. as being so many
unnatural and unbearable restraints upon
the freedom and equality which are common
rights of all the human race"
Following up these remarks, the Intelli-
gencer traces the spirit of locofocoism from
aud in the character Of that distinguished
forerunner of the locofocos of the present
day, points out the consistency in his princi-
pies and those which are boldly avowed now
by men in high places.
"Locofocoism, continues the Intelligencer
is not always, howevtr, ragged g. runagaie,
as in the personifcation of it in the charac-
ter Of Jack Cade."
"In our day, we too often meet with it in
silks and broadcloths; and we have even
heard Of its being seen in robes of ermine
II is, in truth, of no particular rank or station
Wherever human passions or human fail
ties reside or can penetrate, there we shall
find.it. Yesterday it was busy in intimidatine
& overawing the established Government al
Harrisburg; the day before it was in the
midst of the mob sacking flour store in N
York; and the latest and most alarming ex
hibi:ion of it, was in the attempt, under col
or OF judicial power, to annul the obligation
df contracts. In all these cases it is still the
same spirit of misrulc. We discover in i
the same enmity to the established order o
things; the same disposition to set the poo
against the rch-the idle against the indus
trious-the unruly against the laws-ant
finally, the State Governments against tn,
Governments of the Union, the great regula
tor, protector, and preserver of the libertie
of this People.
| We rejoice 70 see that spirit thus hostil,
to every idea of civilization, religion, an,
well regulated government, has been SO sig
naliy rebuked in its first attempt to wres
the judicial authority to its aid. The cheer
ing conviction has been strengthened in tn,
minds OF those who know to value the con
servative principle in government, that Their
Is in our political system one barrier which
power cannot break down, nor party under
mine.
This decision, following that on the Man
damus case at the preceding term Of tn
Court, has given increased confidence t
the lovers of our glorious institutions, an
doubled the ecurity of the tenure by whic
every individual in the community holds hi
life, his liberty, and property"

NEW YORK CHARTER ELECTION.
There is reason to fear that the election
for city officers in New York has gone for
the Loco Focos. The following from the
Louisianian of the Goth inst, contains all
the information we have upon the subject:
The New York City Elections, which
terminated on Thursday evening, has result
ed in the choice of Isaac L. Varian, ". By
to the Office of Mayor, by majority of 1000
or 10000 over the present incumbent, Aaron
Clark (Whig;) and probably majority of
Van Buren, men have been elected to the
Common Council. The number of polIed
is about 10000, being one of the largest
ever taken in that city. The Journal of
Commerce gives the following majorities as
nearly correct:
For Clark, 1st ward GIT, Cd, 46l; ID 634
9Th 1919; 18th 767. Total 2eoo. 1ss Va
rian, 4ih ward Is; 9TH l72: II III - los
9th SGT; 10Th 623; 18th 0o1s i9M $50
18th 42S; 18th 1877; 10Th $50; 18th BIS
Totals, $50. .Varian's majority 1882.
The New Era, a Locofoco paper claims
out of II wards, or have elected aldermen
and assistants for 10 to IL. The votes had
been counted.
In the Brooklyn Charter elections, the
Wings have triumphed. They have elect
ed IL out of Is Aldermen, and have carried
their whole ticket for Supervisors.

TO CORRESPONDENTS

We have received very well written

inexpedient and impolitic to give it publica-

calculated to advance the objects at which
the writer aims.
Our correspondent H. K. is somewhat
behind the times; and, although his article
is we'll written, it would not be Of sufficient
interest to justify its publication.
The favor of our fair correspondent K,
we are ungallant enough to decline. 1t is
badly written, and unhappiIy conceived

AND ARISTOCRACY

Bennett, OF the N I. Herald hits most ad-
mirably, in one of his letters from Washing
ton, the characters of Martin Van Buren, g.
Henry Clay, by one of those little incidents
which, though to the casual observer, they
present no theme for speculation, to the re-
fecting student of mankind constitute texts
of pregnant import and rich instruction.
Bennett tells US, that on a certain Sabbath
he and the President attended the same
church; and, after twoor three hits at the
preacher, he describes the departure of the
congregation at the close Of the services -
sIn short time his Excellency {Mr. Van
Buren) made his appearance with his lady
on his arm. Over his shoulders hung a
very splendid cloak-and around his face
the same mingled expression Of conceit g.
nothingness which envelope ambition made
great by accident. On his appearance, up
drove very splendid carriage, drawn by 2
beautiful horses, &c. The carriage was
the most superb thing have yet seen. 1t
was Of dark olive hue, with ornaments ele-
gantly disposed, shining as bright as burn
ished gold. When was in Paris, saw
Louis PHILIPPE frequently drive out to Neu-
lily, and back to the Tuilleries-When
was in London saw the Queen as frequent
