The Maine Inv Deeged.

Senator Beekman Of our City has eivep
notice Of bill to be submitted by him to
al dish Licenses and confer on the Board
Of Supervisors OF each County the power
of regulating therein the traffic in Spurious
Liquors.
This il substantially the system now pre-
vaiIing in Massachusetts and some other
States. and it answers no good purpOse.-
Under its operation, Rumseling may easily
be lawful on one side of an imaginary line
and unlawful on the other lawful few
miles further on, and unlawful after another
hours ride-and so on. Next year, it may
be lawful where it was unlawful this, and
unlawful where it was lawful, and so on in
a perpetual whirligig. And all this under
the same law Mr.. Beekman's plan is To-
ferior even to that of Massachusetts, in
that it commits the regulation of the
Liquor Traffic to the Supervisors, whose
election is governed by medley of political,
local ard personal considerations, instead
Of Commissioners elected expressly for this
duty:
We venture to assure Mr.. Beekman, and
all others who with him may be seeking
some Northwest Passage between right
and wrong, that they cannot succeed. Rum
selling is either legitimate, wholesome,
commendablo business, which ought to be
permitted and protected, as much as the
selling of Bread, Meat, Potatoes or Fruit,
or it Is a pernicious, baneful, destructive
pursuit, which ought to be Outawed aud
prohibited, as the keeping Of gaming-houses
or haunts of lewdness is. There Is no
half way ground, and it is labor lost to
Try to make any. Mr.. Beekman's anti-Rum
constituents will not regard this movement
as fulfilling the measure of their just ex-
pecta tons, and do not desire the passage of
anv such act as he foreshadows. They
want THE MAINE LAW: That has worked
and is now working admirably, while he
seeks to supplant it by one which has
proved 4 decided failure. It has no basis
of principle to stand upon, and must tumble
like Dagon before the Ark when confronted
with the Maine Law.
Gentlemen Legislators if you will give
the People the Law they have asked for,
very well; if not, they will endeavor to
take it in their own good time. But if you
cannot give us the Law, at least oblige us
with the Vote!

Kossuth and Capt. Lorg.

We publish this morning the statement Of
Cant LONG with reference the difficulties al.
legged to have taken place between himself and
KossuTH while on bosrd the Mississippi He al
firms that. in the entire passage there was but
single difference between them, and tina. merely
a misunderstanding. When at Marseiles, the
people came in boats crowding around the ship
to salute Kossuth. shouting and clapping their
hands in peculiar French fashion, while drums
In the City were beating the Captain said to the
Governor, that if he would retire from the deck,
perhaps the people would dispense; otherwise,
he (the Captain feared comp omise OF the
flag Kossuth understood him TO say, that ne
(Kossuth) had already compromised the flag, by
receiving the welcome of the people, and also
understood the request to withdraw as COM
mand But aiterward the matter was explained
between them, when the Captain exhibited to
Kossuth his cruising orders, which were very
stiict IN respect to the conduct OF those on board
the ship while in friendly ports, and especially
fo1bidding all manifestation of sympathy with
any political party. With this explanation Kos
suth was satisfied, and thenceforward perfectly
friendly relations existed between them.
The Captains letter is couched In manly,
straightforward style 1t shows that in the case
referred to his action did not exceed his orders
that in intention at least if not in manner, it was
respectful toward Kossuth and that there was
10 decentralization in the statements with re-
spect to the voyage published here in his name
after his arrival At the same time it shows
that Ko: suth, even while thinking himself or
dored from the deck, and accused OF compro-
missing the flag, yet obeyed the wish OF the Cap
tain, and withdrew from the people who were
clamOrous to show him honor.
1t seems evident, however, from the tone OF
tie letter, that the Captain, and we may presume
others of his officers, regarded the Hungarians
with sympathy for their forlorn condition as
exiles, rather than for their immovable deter
imitation and hope that their country should yet
be blessed with freedom and independence.
We are aware that sympathy and agreement in
political opinions cannot be commanded, but yet
we should rejoice to see the sympathies OF
officers OF the American Republic always warm
and glowing on the side of liberty and never on
that of despotsm.
