The Board of Aldermen will meet at
the usual hour tonight, and at about o'clock will
proceed to the orgies of the tea-room.
Tomorrow evening at Metropoll-
tan Hail. our distinguished felow-c citizen ESocH Z.
CAMP. ESQ will deliver an address opposed to the
Maine Liquor Law as "Anti-American, coercive,
unjust, dishonest, illegal and anti religious" MI
Camps qualifications to speak of the effect OF liquors
are very superior, as will be seen BY the following
paragraph from his speech at Trpler Hall few
DAYS since
"Iet me tell you that little toddy often makes
man more honest, (the sentiment and the dumb ac-
ton of the OF a,or tapping his breast as II applying
it, produced the most ludicrous effect, and It was
some minutes before the laughter suosided) have
seen men who, with the effect Of acongenial glass
spoke their mind freely and Independently, and adj
vocated principles which they never would nave
dared to have done without iss ennooling influence
We had the pleasure of listening to the dls'ln
suished orator upon that occasion and must bear
our testimony to the fact that Hsmlet's advice to
the Players was not los, upon Mr.. Camp he did
"sut the action to the word, the word to The ac'on
and held, as rwere, the mirror up TO nat re-" We
have no doubt that he will, to morrow Night be even
more honest f possibe) than on the above occasion,
ard that he will be in all his speech Is free and IN
dependent and as bold in the advocacy of his pscu-
hsr principles as he could himself desire. The
price of admission TO hear Mr.. Camp IS fixed at %
cents 1t is presumed, however, that the rush for
tickets Will be so great tha, many OF them wil bring
from I'VE to ten dollars.
While upon the subject of Liquor, we call the
readers attention to The murder Of two children
by their father, and his own suicide, IN Baltimore
on Saturday morning. The treble murderer was
drunk at the time We also notice that James NC
Bride is ON trial in Philadelphia for the murder o.
his brother. James was very drunk when ne COM
mi,ted the murder. These two dessroyers OF four
lives were opposed to the Maine Law, practically
at least and we trust they will not be forgotten In
Mr.. Camps Grafton. We hope, to come nearer
home that ne will not forget the woman found dead
at No. s7S Kirgst. yesterday, from lntemperance
and exposure nor the man Gilroy, who isJust dead
from the effects Of bite in the arm by some one, his
death being accelerated by his own Incorporate hao
its nor the edfyipg fact that in the last six months
of the year $751; there were arrested in this Cy W
per,ons for assault with intent to KILL 25o5 Tor as
sault and battery is5 for assautins policemen 2s'i
for disordery conduct 500 for fighting In the streets
100 insane persons, 3s92 drunk, 1901 drunk ana us
orderly AZ for indecencies, IL for issotng women,
6s for keeping disorderiy houses 10 Tor mufaei, -
for aelpg lQuor without license 81 for threatening
life and 9lO for vasrancy-in all lies2 arrests Ia
slx months fully nine-tenths OF which were causea
by the abusive use Of liquor the remaining arrests
humber only 362l, ana some OF these are doaoiiess
traceable TO the same prolific source. Nor viii ne
be likely TO forget that in the Sixth Ward, where
there 10 one quor for every Two voters there
were arrested Tor the above ofenses 2,si9 persons
when the Wares tue quota according 10 population
would have been only 72l the excess OF crime oeing
over 4c0 per cent. Will Mr.. Camp explain wny tne
Sixth Ward shows the above 2,9i3 arrests wnite
The Fiteenth, with nearly equal population sho VS.
only So.
- On Saturday the little Aztec children
were fairly oyeuun with vsisoIs from all parts OF
the City and surrounding country, and the interest
manifested In the little fairies was never more AZ
