A Short Argument.

A gentleman was railing. some
time since, against the Maine Liquor
Law, as it deprived men of their nat
ural rights to buy, sell, and get gain.
Turning to his friend, who was near,
he asked him if he did not think it
very oppressive? To which the gem
tleman replied "Sir, call it oppress-
i've, if you please. / will state one
fact, well known to myself. A tax
bill was recently brought me, on my
city property, amounting to $500, for
which | gave my check. Upon in
vestigating the matter, | found that
$3.50 Of this, was for the support Of
drunkenness, either directly or indi-
rectly. Now, what is this, but op-
preston? But | presume have no
rights. Rumsellers have ALL They
may tax me $3.50, annually, to sup
port the crime and drunkenness they
make, and must be still. Sir"
said he, "the Maine Law is RIGHT"
"Well," said the anti law man,
"there is some reason in it, after all.
That is the best argument in its favor,
/ have ever heard. | will 90 with

PETER CARTwRiaHT.-Mr. Cart
wright was once waited upon by a
worthy clergyman Of another church,
who likewise lectured him for his al.
legged ignorance Of Greek and Hebrew.
"And pray sir, who informed you, :"
said Mr. Cartwright, " that was un-
acquainted with the Greek anu Hebrew
languages ?"
swell, do not remember, that l
have been told SO by any one but
presumeditwas SO ,as Methodist preach
ers generally, | believe, are without
classical edur ation."
"Ah, well, sir, you should not take
things on presumption, without having
good grounds therefor, especially in
so grave charge as that, which you
have uttered against me. You, |
suppose, understand these languages?"
Yes ; l profess to know something
of them"
Well, for aught L know, / have
as good a right to doubt your know
ledge of the Greek and Hebrew, as
you have to call in question my ac-
quaintance with them. Allow me,
sir, to examine you concerning your
knowledge of the Greek" Then
taking up from the table, by which
he was seated, a book about the size
of a Testament, opening it and ap.
pearing to read therefrom, he uttered
few words in Dutch, of which he
had a little smattering, and continued,
"Will you be good enough to trans
late into English that verse from the
Greek Of the Gospel Of St. John Z"
Indeed, sir" replied the clergy
man, little embarrassed by the un-
expected turn to the conversation,
"my time has been so much occupied
for many years, with professional
studies, that / had no time to look
into the Greek Testament, and have
proOaoly got little rusty IN the Ian
guage."
Every probable. Well, I suppose
we must excuse you, as | know some
thing of the laborious nature of til,
| pastoral office. But, doubtless, yol
have been more careful of preserving
your knowledge ofthe Hebrew /" ana
taking up and opening another book
about as large as Bible, he continued
"and if you please, sir, I will thank
you to translate passage from the
Hebrew Pentateuch," uttering another
sentence in Dutch.
The reverend gentleman by this
time became quite confused and seem.
ing TO think he had "got in the wrong
box" he abruptly arose and retired

friends and enemies standing,in sepa.

bered at the next election; but our
friends Montgomery and Allen must
be put right, as they are on the
right side. We intend to carry out
that resolution to obtain FIVE hundred

WALKING FOR A DRAM.-One of the
best stories Of the season is told by
Sandy Welch, of a man who was in
the country on visit, where they had
no liquor. He got up two hours be-
fore breakfast and wanted his bitters.
None to be had; of course he felt
bad.
"How far is it to a tavern ?" he
asked.
"Four miles,"
So off this thirsty soul started,
walked four miles in pleasant frame
of mind, arrived at the tavern and
found it temperance house !

ance ceases to be virtue, and the citi-
zens of Wellsville, Pa, have decided
that the time is ssoV. They are very
much excited (says an exchange) in
consequence of the death of two per-
sons from intemperance, and attacks
Of delirium tremens upon two or three
more. The citizens turned out in
large numbers one evening last week,
and visited all the groggeries, and
warned the owners that they must
quit the liquor traffic, or abide the CON
sequences.
The time was when oar rumsellers
were treated in the same way, and
failing to heed the warning, their shan
ties ''took to themselves wings" and
the sellers woke up in the morning
and found their groggeries demolished.
The people are degenerated from the
zeal of those days-but we are look
ing for the Maine Law to do away with
them. II we cannot get it, then we
will do the next best Crusader.

DR.. Johnson, speaking of a lady who
was celebrated for dressing well, re-
marked" That the best evidence
that can give you Of her perfection
in this respect is, thai one can NeUfr
remember Gohat she had or" Delicacy
Of feeling in a lady will prevent her
putting on anything calculated to at
tract notice, and yet female Of good
taste will dress so as to have every
part of her dress to correspond. Thus
while she avoids what is showy and
attractive, every thing WILDE adjusted
so as to exhibit symmetry and taste.

Then rise before the sun, my lads,
And those rich blessings claim.
