Spirit of the age. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1849-1865, 1854-03-15

By law of Congress for 1884, tits made
the duty of all Indian Agents to search
boats, stores, and packages suspected of
holding spirituous liquors or wines in the
Indian country
And if any such, spirituous liquors or
wine be found, the goods, boats, packages
or peltries of such persons, shall be seized
and deliveredto the proper officer, and shall
be proceeded against by libel in the proper
Court and forfeited. And it shall, more
over, be lawful for any person in the United
States service, or for any Indian or white
person, to take md destroy any such liquor
or wine as they may find in the Indian
Territory, not used as supplies for the ar
my.'-U. s.. Ld,Us.
Said Gov. Hubbard of Maine, on late
occasion He would not discuss the con-
stitutionality of the. law. He would only
say, that if men can legislate for the exter-
mination Of ravenous beasts, we may for
the determination of this greatest of all
evils, which reduces the form divine from a
condition worse than that of savages.' The
constitutionality of the Maine Law and Of
all prohibitory statutes for the good of the
people, must be viewed as settleda and not a
gain to be agitated.

Constitutional Question.

For more than two centuries the traffic
in intoxicating liquors has been licensed
and regulated by law and under the or
dinances for trade, the Constitution Of the
United States has made certain provisions
for the reception and disposition of bran
dies, &C., received from foreign countries
In the general burst of indignation against
the traffic, called by distinguished jurist,
a traffic in the souls and bodies of men"
laws have been passed which, in their ope-
ration, would bar these articles from sale.
A question has hence arisen, Is not such
entire prohibition in conflict with the laws
of the General Government? The ques.
ton first came up in legal form in the
State of Massachusetts,, in 1887, in an ex-
ception to the conviction Of Benjamin Kim
ball for selling spirituous liquors without
license, which conviction was considered
null and void, on the ground that law,
prohibiting the sale of liquors without Ii
cense, was at variance with the laws and
Constitution of the United States. The
Supreme Judicial Court, in this case, de-
cided that all license and prohibitory stat
utes fall within the powers necessary to the
police, internal regulation, and welfare oi
the community, and do not in the least in
terfere with the Constitution of the United
States. A very able argument wasa made
on this point by the Hon. Peleg Sprague
The question came up again in 1845, in al
appeal of Samuel Thurlow from decis
ion of the Courts in Massachusetts, to tn
Supreme Court of the United States. Tn
case was argued before that high tribuna
by Messrs. Webster, Choate, and Hallett
for the plaintiff and Asahel Huntington
of Salem, for the State. Mr.. Webster al
gued that Congress alone has the power
regulate commerce with foreign nations
and among the several States, and wit
the Indian tribes and that, while the la7
of Congress authorises importation for tn
sale for consumption, the law of the Stat
prohibits all sale and consumption, an
thus renders invalid the law of the natior
The right said he, to import, implie
the right to sell, to the unrestricted use {
all the channels of commerce, even th
most minute to the consumer In opp
sition to Mr.. Webster, Mr. Davis for tt
State, argued that police laws 6 may be ca
ried to any extent the public welfare d
mands. If the health, the morals, and Il
welfare of the public demand the exclusic
of an evil, there is a right to shut it ou
/, regardless to revenue and private intercs
If excessive indulgence in the use of into
icating drinks be an evil, it is the right
the Legislature to guard against it by wi
and prudent legislation. This restrai
el upon the sale of spirits, only follows out

The Miller,s Bow and his Bible.

The following record of one of the happy
results Of Bible distribution, in Sweden, APP
peared in the Presbyterian about four years
since. The incident is as interesting now
as when it was first related:
! returned, says Swedish colporteur,
through village where there are several,
water mills. A Bible had been purchased
from me there, three years since, by mil
ler's boy, who, not long before, had fallen
into the water, and had narrowly escaped
being crushed by the mill-wheel. Snatched
wonderfully from death, John, this miller
lad, had at that time begun to be concerned
about the salvation of his soul. Hence the
purchase which he made of Bible. He
read that sacred book, and was fervent in
prayers. The Lord heard his prayers, and
he became a staunch confessor of the truth
as it is in Jesus. He was not long in be-
coming the object of persecution from the
miller, the miller's wife, his comrades, and
persons who frequented the mill. All were
determined to render it impossible for him
to read the Bible; but the Lord watched
over him. Shortly afterward, Andrew, the
miller's son, young man of twenty years
of age, victim to habits of impiety and
dissipation, became likewise disciple Of the
Saviour. This happened in the following
manner.
John was Andrews assistant at the mill
Originally they were the best friends in the
world but since Johns conversion, Andrew
employed all sorts of suggestions, articles
threateninOs and even violence tn nlunot
efforts were Intellectual. One day, while
John was busy out of doors, Andrew, wh'
was alone in the mill, took Johns Bible fo
the purpose of casting it into the river
however, just as he was about to throw it in
he opened the Bible mechanically, and thi
passage caught his eye, Two shall be grind
ing at the mill the one shall be taken ant
the other left Matt. xiv, Is. This de
claration struck his conscience with the ra
pidity Of lightning, it took possession Of hi
heart ; and under the weight of aninexpres
sible emotion, he placed the Bible again j
Johns chamber. Dating from that momen
Andrew became new man; thereafter b
showed himself to be sincere servant {
Jesus Christ. United from that time j
heart and soul with one another, John an
Andrew, young as they were, soon becam
in the hand of God, instruments of relig
Gus awakening in the village and the su
rounding neighhorhood.

A Simple Remedy for Colds.-It is said
that forty eight hours of total abstinence from
liquids Of all sorts will kill cold entirely;
and he who tries this remedy may go out
into the air, and the more the better; for the
more he walks and creates exhalation from
the skin, the more he robs his blood of water
and the more thoroughly he breaks the bank
on which the nose and throat and lungs rely
for the means of making themselves trouble

THE CURSE OF INTEMPERANcE.-A writer in
the Methodist Protestant, speaking of the curse
of intemperance, makes use of this decidedly
strong language - When the sword of the
pestilence in Europe, far and wide, moved
down like grass its helpless victims, the angel
of the pestilence grew weary with the slaugh-
ter, and he sheathed his deadly blade. The
terrible two-handed sword Of alcohol Stays
withan unceasing slaughter. He never tires
he never holds back his bloody hand, neither
night nor day. "The slogan" of his internal
mercenaries is ''sIay and slay," until our very
soil is soaked with blood, and our grave-yard>
groan with the bloated corpses of his victims
When the black plague swept over the Eas.
tern world it killed, passed on, and left the
survivors free from fear and danger. The
black plague of intemperance is an eve--abi
ding destruction-it will not pass Ont neve
departs"

The CHRISTIANS WIFE.-Chateaubri
discourses beautifully on this theme:
Man, in uniting himself to her, regains a
part of his substance; his soul, as we'll as
his body,is incomplete without his wife he
has strength, she has beauty: he labors in
the field; he does not understand the details
of domestic life, but his companion prepares
the repast, and her smiles sweeten existence
He has his crosses, and the partner of his
couch is there to soften them his day may
be sad and troubled, but in the chaste arms
of his wife he finds comfort and repose.-
Without woman, man would be rude, gross
and solitary. Woman spreads around hin
the flowers of existence, as the creepers o
the forest decorate the majestic oak with
their odoriferous garlands. Finally, the pai
live united, and in death are not separable
in dust they lay side by side, and their soul
are reunited beyond the limits of the tomb
