lallS TO hold the criminals you have
excited TO deeds Of murder. You and
your craft have turned rail trains from
their iron path, and thrown them
down precipices, wasting and dstroy-
ing thousands Of property, and lives
too. You have sunk ships in the
ocean, or stranded them on the coast.
NOT less than a hundred millions YOU
and your fellows have DESTROYED in a
year. IT would take a Maine law
thousand years to destroy as much
property as you and your brother liq-
uor sellers do in ten. And vet YOU
say destroyer Of property is thief
and a villain, and should find his bed
in q State prison. My friend. what
would be your doom if you had your
deserts?
Gro.-I don'tlike to hear any more
of your talk. As long as men want
rum, | shall sell it to them; and it is
impertinent in you to meddle with my
business. q
LaU.--All right, neighbor; only
never open your lips against the Maine
Law again, as the destroyer Of prop
erty. That destroys only what is a
curse, and can never be blessing
Every angel in heaven reioices when
it is poured out, though every devil
may gnash his teeth for rage. But
you waste and destroy property that
is valuable. You destroy business;
you cause nettles to grow over the
farm; you waste, but never replenish
food and clothing; you beggar once
comfortable and happy families; aye,
you destroy health, and life, and souls
the very image Of God in the soul
of man you quench and blot out, and
only fit it for eternal burnings. You
60 against the Maine Law, because it
destroys property, and we go against
your abominable business, because it
destroys property. 0! quit it forever.
Drun.-I say. Mister, give me my
farm. 1t is all mine. q
Gro.-Gentlemen, / must lock up;
(they retire, and he bars his win
dows.) 0, what shall do with this
Maine Law if it comes! 1t will ruin
me, as | have ruined hundreds Of
others. ] feel sorry for many fami-
lies around me. / wish could restore
them the property l have taken for
rum of husbands, fathers and sons,
now all dead. Shame forbids my
doing it. But God knows what a life
/ have lived; what a moth and curse
| have been to this community! /
only pray, that for destroying others,
he will not destroy me and mine.

LIBERTY.--Some of our gin-loving
neighbors are croaking and hiccuping
loudly about the loss Of their liberty
which must naturally follow the pas.
sage of the Maine Law.-We don't ac-
knowledge the application of the word
to any but the rumseller. 1t gives
him scope for liberty broader than
the pirate assumes when he triAes with
the purses and then the lives Of those
whom he may chance to meet on the
high seas. There is town in Ohio,
containing less than 1000 inhabitants,
where the same rum-seller's liberty is
enjoyed, and out Of that number they
succeed in giving one man eUerymOnth,
on an average, the supreme felicity
and sweet liberty Of going to the
grave. a miserable, debased, and de-
graded drunkard. This is the liberty
which is SO highly priced by the rum
mics and which they are so fearful of
losing. Crusader. % a ~ ''1.'6l '... .

The London Daily News says that there is
an old English newspaper extant wherein may
be seen the inquiry, "Who is GeOrdy Wash

he does not understand, and who will soon be
