The temperance cause has sustained an
injury at The hands Of its protested friends
during the political contest just fIpseq'
which will require years of prudent and
persevering eiror, to repair. The Hard
Cider campaign Of 1870 was scarcely Jess
mischievous in lis influence, though work
ing By means directly opposite TO those
employed in the late canvass. The Belle
f%on,ainc GuscHe, the WING organ OF Lo'

cause in tina, region Of country is PIT back
"a, least twenty years. 10 almost every
instance where the issue has been made at
the polls, The Maine Law has suffered an
overwht lining defeat. independent"

have overcome large maiori'ies in Dis
tric,s where the regular nominees OF The
parties had pledged themselves to the
Maine Law. The State journal, the
central organ Of whiggery, iniers iron,
these facts, tla, the people Of Ohio are in
favor Of the free and unrestricted manu-
facture and drinking Of spirinous liquors.
We interpret the verdict differently. The
results a rehuke to political quackery aud
intrigue. The cause Of temperance was
