LICENSE Law IN TENNESSEE. A bill has
passed one branch of the Tennessee legislature,
which provides that amy person having not
more than $3.50 vested, may retail liquors IN
any quantity upon paying for the use of the
State S25 for license, and $40 in addition for
every 500 of capital employed over $3.50.
The county courts and incorporated towns are
no' to impose any higher tax for county and
corporation purposes, than is imposed by the
State. Applicants for the license are required
to take an oath against permitting gambling,
and against keeping disorderiy house and
selling to slaves-they are also to give bonds
to account for additional supplies. A viola
ton of the oath is made perjury. 1t is pro-
vided that no running account for more than
$40 shall be recoverable. The State has here
tofore prevented the retailing of liquors. 1t is

The Hon. J. Q. Adams, in recent letter, thus
deprecates the use of tobacco
In my early youth was addicted to the use
of tobacco in two of its mysteries, smoking and
chewing. was warned by a medical friend of
the pernicious operation of this habit upon the
stomach and the nerves; ard the advice of the
physician was fortified by the results of my own
experience. More than thirty years have pas
sed away since deliberately renowned the use
of tobacco in all its forms; and although the
resolution was not carried into execution with
out struggle Of vitiatcd nature, never yielded
to its impulses; and in the space of three or four
months of selt-denial, they lost their stimulat-
ing power, and | have never since felt it as ii
privation. have often wished that every in
dividual of the human race afflicted with this
artificial passion, could prevail upon himself to

Mr.. EDkroR:-The excitement conss.
quent On lie hale elecsion being now sbat-
"a, and mems minds being once sgaiu
brought back 70 the consideration Of domes-
tic matters, II occurs to me That it may moi
be uninteresting to your readers to Know
something Of our doings in Augusta. With
this view, | venture to give few particu-
lars.
We have, in the first place, Lycenm,
entitled ssThe Iowa Franklin Debating So
ciety," which cannot doubt will have
much influence in improving the minds Of
our young men. 1t is conducted in the
most orderly and business-like manner
We have now a very important question
under consideration, viz: ''Is man account
able to any tribunal whatever for his opin-
ions.' Its discussion has been adjourned
for the third time until Monday next, Goth
inst, 6 l-2 o'clock, p. M. when we shall
be happy to hear any person who may feel
inclined to consider the question and give
his views thereon. The constitution also
is being discussed clause by clause, and
each county in the Territory represented
by a member or members Of The society,"
Any person objecting TO any part Of it we
shall be happy 10 hear, and give to his rea-
soning our calmest and best consideration.
We have, next, Elder Adams, delivering a
serious Of Lectures on different religious
subjects, among which is one that appears
to me Of vast Importance, and which the
Elder appears to handle like man who
knows his business and has energy and
perseverance TO do it. Whether we may
all agree with the Lecturer on this subject,
is totally irrelevant 10 the interest Of hear
ing him. cannot doubt but your Burling-
ton folks would be well repaid for their
drive out in hearing him on any Sabbath
for the ne 4 3 or 4weeks; and should they
wish refreshment, they may rest assured
Of being well treated BY Hepner at the
"Iowa HOTEL" WHO is always at his post,
doing his duty 10 his guests worth courte-
sy, attention and politeness. Besides these,
we have our balls and parties (private and
public;) singing and theatricle schools,
with several other sources of instructive
and harmless amusement, all conducted
with such order, decorum, and respecta-
bility. as might we'll challenge compar-
ison with amy Of Your larger and aristo-
cratic cities. Not wishing to trespass too
much on your valuable time, shall con-
clude for the present with request that
you will do lis the favor Of inserting these
