THr MAINE LIQUoR Law, winch al pre-

Der of States, provides

sniriiuous or into xicatng, shall be manufactured
or sold as a beverage in the State OF Name, un-
der heavy penalty

violation of law shall be utterly null and VOID.
These are the main provisions of the

penalties for violation of lis enactments.
The great fight between the teetotallers and
liquor dealers and their adherents will un-
questionably be fought on the basis of this
law, and we shall not be surprised if it
comes off much sooner than anticipated,
appearances indicating most determined
effort on the part Of temperance men to
enlist in their favor everything that will
conduce to the advantage OF the stand
taken.

HKaLrH-If persons really knew how neces-
sary digestion was to heahh, they would never
allow dyspepsia to work its inroads upon their
system. We are aware that aatulence is re-
garded as slight matter, and that persons speak
of their stomachs being out of order, and eFince
no concern or alarm: still when disease raw
ages their bodies they become wild with fright,
and swallow all the patent nostCums of the day,
in the hope of resusctating their debilitated
sytems, and restoring healthy actions of the
various functions. The best medicine to pre-
vent all blllitary attacks, and restore health 10
the system once assailed by disease, is DR. HooF-

PORTRAIT PAiNTING.-Mr. ATWOOD,
who was selected to proceed to Mexico to
take a portrait of Gen. Taylor, and has
attained high reputation as a faithful and
correct painter, has been spending some
weeks in this place, during which time he
has painted a number of portraits of ladies
and gentlemen, as we'll as some children,
which need but be seen to be recognized
thus proving that they are true to ma
ture. He purposes remaining few weeks
longer, and should any of our readers de-
sire to see themselves years hence as they
were ain other days. we would advise
them by all means to give Mr.. A. call,
and examine those now receiving the
finishing touches of his pencil.
y large portrait of Gen. Scott, by the
same painter, now in the side room of the
Lewistown Hotel, created a desire in the
minds Of some of our citizens to retain it
and the project has accordingly been
started TO purchase it by subscriptions of
80 cents per share, and dispose of it by
lot (in fact being an Art Union" on a
small scale.) The list is now open. and
as the number of shares is limited, an
early subscription will be necessary.
