For the Organ Of Temperance Reform.
More Facts-Who dare deny them 7
Mr.. EDIToR In looking over your
Facts and figures" of last week, it
occurred to me that there was one
striking fact that l had not seen pub
lished, viz:
The fact, that distillers can and do,
make more meat, (pork and beef
from a given amount Of corn, than the
producers Of grain can by feeding it
in the raw state, or as it is usually fed
by the farmers.
Now, conceive this to be most
important fact, as it fully and satisfac-
torily answers the question we so of
ten hear, "What will we farmers do
with our corn if the distilleries
are closed?" which / would do by
simply stating few other facts.
First, then, it is fact that if all the
corn now made into whisky and the
slop used for feeding hogs and cattle,
was feed by the farmers it would not
increase the amount of meat produced
and thus overstock the market, but on
the contrary by improving the quality
Of the meat, particularly Of pork,
would thereby cause more to be con-
sumed at higher prices,
Next, it is a fact that if we take the
average price of corn and pork for
any series of 7 years in the last 21,
the corn has, when converted into
pork, been worth the most money,
and we may infer it will continue to be.
Another fact is, that it is worth not
less than per cent. (my experience
says much more) on the amount of
grain annually raised on a farm, to
feed it on the soil that produced it.
And still another fact is, that by
feeding, we effect saving of from 80
to 80 per cent. in the hauling required
to get our produce to market.

A Rum Shop Closed by the Ladies.

A Rum Shop Closed by the Ladies.
A correspondent writing from Mich
igan to the Home Missionary, says
Certain efforts put forth by our la
dies in furtherance of the temperance
cause deserve mention:
In a section of the village, there has
always been a strong public seutI-
meht in favor Of temperance, by the
force ofwhich, appropriately applied,
an end has been speedily put TO sum
dry enterprises in the way of liquor
selling. But some time ago, grocery
was opened by a German. who per-
sisted in retailing strong drink in spite
of various attempts to disodgo him.
He had complied with the provisions
of the statute, which allows any one
to sell on giving bonds to a certain
amount, on the principle of the Wis
consn law,
A few weeks ago the ladies' deter
mined to take the matter in hand
Thirty-one or more Of them organized
| themselves into companies OF six each,
and commenced Il course ofsystemat-
ic visitation, one company going to-
gether each day. At first, though the
man was somewhat Disconnected at
the unexpected honor Of a visit from
six ladies', he was disposed to treat the
matter as u very good joke, and face
tiously recommended his liquors to
his visitors. The next day, when an
other company called, he became an.
cry and scolded and threatened. The
day after, the visiting committee found
the front door of the establishment
closed against them, but speedily made
their way in through the back door.
By the middle of the week, the man
became thoroughly alarmed, and about
the hour he expected a visit, he locked
his store and went away. The ladies
called as usual, but, Of course, with
out gaining admittance. About sun
down, however, the man returned, and
had hardly got the shop opened, and
everything ready to supply his wait
ing customers, when in filed the pla-
toOn of visitors, with their tongues un-
loosed, and their zeal raised to a high
er pressure from having been SO long
rePressed. On Friday, the man was
gone, and his store closed the most of
the day. He returned towards even
ing, and not daring quite yet to open
his store, had stopped in at the black
smiths shop, and was there condoling
himself in iancied security, when his
mwelcome visitors we're again upon
him with their faithful reproofs. On
Saturday, not a single detachment,
but the whole regiment of ladies' wait
ed upon him in body, and labored
with him sufficiently, as they thought,
to last over the Sabbath. Meanwhile
they circulated paper, to which they
procured the signatures of most Of the
families in that part of the town,
plcdging themselves to purchase no.
thing at that store so long as liquor
was sold there. The next week, one
of the mans bondsmen left the place,
and being unable to get new bail, in
consequence Of the movement of the
ladies', he discontinued the open sale
Of liquor. More recently they have
suspected him of selling illegally, and
have appointed a committee to prose-
cute him.

TALL BR1DaE. THERE'S bridge in
the course of construction on the Buff
lalo and New York city railroad where
it crosses the Genessee river, near
PortagevilIe. When completed it will
be $50 feet high, and 500 feet span /;
it is built upon stone piers set on the
bed of the rocks, and carried up thir-
ty feet high from the bed Of the
river, few rods above the upper
falls. From the top of the piers the
wood work rises 200 feet, and so
perfect is the model of the bridge, that
it is thought there will not be the least
tremor or motion under the heaviest
train of cars that may ever have occa-
sion to pass over it. The timber grown
on 100 acres has already been ex-
hausted, and so acres more purchased,
1t is thought 21O acres will afford tim
Der to complete the superstructure,
