thrilling tones--"Men and 'OOmsn Of
New York, UsGt was that" and with
it the answer-''I'lI tell you what
it was-It was Progress and Reform.
Let egislatOrs, and judges, and jpFles,
and conservatives of every name
throw themselves across the track,
and thus arrest the onward rush OF
yon mighty train-Men, may they
hope to stay the mightier movement
of public sentiment, whose coming
may be heard in the far East, and
whose echo is already bounding over
the plains Of the far West, demand
ing-not the regulation, not the par
tial restraint Of the liquor traffic
but its abatement-its total, and etef-
nal annihilation!"
Oil the shouts that then arose and
re-echoed far and near, over that an
cient forest, in ready response to this
beautiful and soul-stirring apostrophe!
Who doubts its truth? Strange that
the lawmakers of our noble State
should have been thus far so dull of
apprehension! For who can not see
that the enactment and execution OF
laws utterly prohibiting the nnanufac-
ture of and traffic in intoxicating
drinks, is only question of timer
God speed the day of so blessed a
consummation!

Extravgant Profits of Lead Mir
.#g imgs

The Grant County HeGrGh remarks as
follows, under this head:-"We learn that
the smelters at franklin, Iowa County,
are paying $40 per 1000 pounds for mineral.
We fear that this rate is the result of COM
petition, or else over estimated demand.
That mineral will fiuctuate the coming sea-
son between $40 and $40, we have no doubt,
but that its steady value. based upon the
Eastern and st. Louis price of lead, will
be $4O,. we doubt very much. Be that as It
may, miners may rely upon a very high
compensation for their labcrs henceforth."
The Gdlena Advertiser says:-"We fully
agree in the above opinion. The price Of
our staple, for some time to come, must
mainly depend on the prices asked by the
owners of Spanish and English Lead, for it
is plain that our mines cannot supply the
market. If foreign dealers chose to keep
the price to near its present limit, we think
they can do SO, but this can not be safe
reliance in the tranactiOn of heavy bust
ness.

n A gentleman of Prince Georges
Co., Md, lately purchased some meal for
his horses. In a short time three and then
the fourth died. Another gentleman pur-
chased some of the neal, and fed his hogs
and poultry, and they too died. 1t was
then found that where the meal was ground,
arsenic was used for the destruction Of
rats, and 1t had probably become mingled
