FACTS FOR THE TnoUGHTFuL.-In 1871,
licenses for liquorselling were withheld in three
contiguous counties of Massachusetts - Bristol
Plymouth and Barnslable, embracing popula-
ton of 10000. Three years afterwards, when
the Courts met, after an average vacation of Eve
months, there were but three indictments in the
whole of them, and each of these was for petty
larceny, of less than ten dollars in amount
A law was passed in Iowa about two years
since, by which it was left to the citizens of ev-
cry county 10 decide whether licenses should or
should not be granted within their limits, Last
year, only two counties voted for license The
officer in charge of the Iowa Penitentiary, in his
annual report to the Legislature, says
During the past year, we have had one con,
Niction, two pardons, and one escape, leaving us
without single prisoner or convict in the State
Pehilentiary at this time. The Fab terms Of
the Courts are about to close without u conyic-
ton"
The effect of the Temperance pledge and cf-
forts in Rhode Island, has hecn to reduce the
enormous amounts formerly expended by ndi-
yiduals and families, for Intoxicating drinks, at
last two-thirds; and this affords one reason for
the increase of s2i ,ooo,O III the taxable prop
ery of the State within eight years.
The town of Paris, in Munroe county, Mo,
contains no such thing as licensed drinking
house, and the Mercury of that place says So
briefly, good order, industry and thrift are the
consequences.
