law requires that the question of sc license OF
g no license " should be submitted to the people
The committee followed the strict letter of the
law, and have nothing to do with any conclu-
sion in the premises.
But look at the common sense of the matter
Admit all our ultra temperance friends CLAIM
in the premises-say that the abuse (they would
scarcely urge the mse) of ardent spirits is vice.
So is the abuse Of any thing. If one vice is to
be prohibited by legislation, so are all vices
to be prohibited; and those who urge the Maine
law in this style, should to be consistent insist
upon laws which should force men to be moral
and yirtuous, and remove every temptation from
their path. A man may eat too much, and glut-
tony begets the grossest sensualisln. A man
may sleep too much; and too much sleep brn-
talizes humanity. A man may become over
Jealous in behalf of a special creed; and over
zeal in sectarianism is fanaticism, the most dam
gerous and repulsiye of all social vices. A man
may frequent places of disreputable resort, and
therein injure his own health and Lilliputianize
the next generation. Can legislation on such
matters be practical or operatives There are
extensively used drugs in every druggists shop,
the abuse of which is frequent-can their sale
be forbidden'
If by any excess man offend against law or
order, let him be therefore punished, God
everything to be used, He created everything
for some useful purpose, even the veriest poison,
and to his solemn penalties upon abuses, social
law and order may properly add their severest
reprobation. The attempt to force men into the
observance Of morality, as arbitrarily establish
ed by private convictions or prejudices, is dan
gerous thing. There are many who hold even
dancing to be sinful, and hurl &c anathema, ma
ranatha . upon the living pictures of the stage
| They may have their ideas of morality to agitate
after while; and to foreclose the whole ques
| ton, we prefer that man should be responsible
to God for morality and to society for order
| We want no Maine law.

Presence of Mind.

Very much has been written in regard to this
important trait of character, yet adults, as well
as children, are continually, in every dangerous
emergency, found lamentably deficient. Acct
dents causing death and destruction of property
will ever occur therefore, in calm and tranquil
moments, we should fortify ourselves for the
hour of danger. The story of "John R1ynor,"
impressed on the mind, possibly might have have
restored to life many children apparently drown
ed. 1t was in the infancy of this periodical that
the account was given, and host of our present
readers were not then its patrons; therefore, |
hope to be pardoned for giving transcript for
publication, especially as it cannot fail to inter-

NILE DIscovERY-B Bayard Taylor writes to
the New York Tribune that "a MIR. Role, who
early in last winter had gained point on the White
Nile, within four and a half degrees of the equa-
tor, has sent back an account of his discoveries,
with map, which has reached the French Geo
graphical Society. 1t appears, from his account
that the upper part of the Nile channel is sur
rounded by great mountains, which extend cast
wardly from the Southern Abyssinian range, far
towards the centre of the continucnt. III line
curving to the south, In these mountains are
nourishcd the many streams whose reservoirs sup
ply the inundations of the Nile continuing as
they do for months. Mr.. Role finds in that
country the tradition of a white people who for
mcrly brought merchandise from the south; he
supposes that these traders were Portuguese, and
that they crossed the mountains by some pass
which is yet to be discovered.
At about the same date with this communica-
ton, missionary named Don Angelo Vico, was

EDUCATION OF BoYs.-We know not who IS
the author of the following paragraph but it con-
tains sound sentiments which ought to be treas
ured up by every parent and guardian in the
land:
Every boy should have his head his heart and
his hand educated. Let this truth never be fort
cotton. BY the proper education of the head,
he will be taught what is good and what is evil
what is wise and what is foolish, what is right,
and what is wrong. By the proper education
of the heart, he will be taught to love what is
good wise and right, and to hate all evil foolish
and wrong. And by the proper education Of
hand, he will be enabled to supply his wants, to
add to his comforts, and to assist those around
him. The highest objects of a good education
are to reverence and obey God, and to love and
serve mankind. Everything that helps us in at
tanning these objects is Of great value, and every
thing that hinders us is comparatively worth
lese. When wisdom reigns in the head, and
love in heart, the man is ever ready to do good;
order and peace smile around and sin and sorrow
are almost unknown" ~
