CoSSEcTIcUr.-A Bill passed the Legis-
lature Of Connecticut at its last session,
Furnishing with fine of 8, 900 dollars and
five years Imprisonment in the penitentiary
any person who shall falsely and maliciousy
represent any inhabitant to be fugitive from
labor, with the design Of procuring his or her
forcble removal. Every such claim shall
be prima fdcia, presumed to be false and
malicious, and this presumption can only be
rebutted by testimony equivalent to that OF
two credible witnesses testifying to facts
directly tending to establish the truth of the
claim

guilty of Penitentiary offence until he could

~ We invite attention to the advertise
ment OF George Klein g. Co. in to-day s
Journal It will be seen that they have been
extending their businesslargely in the manu-
featuring of Soaps, Candles and Lard Oil,
and are now prepared to fill all orders for
the above named articles, in as good quail
ties and at as low prices as the same can be
done in any city in the West. Messrs.
Decker & Kramer we'll known Grocers on
Main street, are members of the above firm,
and will give their attention to the business.
They have engaged in this business for the
purpose of encouraging the manufacture Of
these staple articles in our own city, and ask
the patronage Of the surrounding country. 50
long as the same articles can be purchased
as cheapiy here as elsewhere. We have ex-
amined their facilities for manufacturing and
have no doubt that they can perform all they
promise.

A GREAT BLUxpER We learn from the
State Journal, VIM. r. Nofsinger, the PEG.
pies candidate for State Treasurer, is prob.
ably beaten by an erroneous printing of his
name OH the ticket in Sc, eral portions Of the
State. Some fourteen thousand votes were
given for VIM. F. Nofsinger and VIM. B.
Nofsinger, and the votes with the right name
on will hardly be enough to overbaance the
huge blunder. Some six thousand votes
were cast for Hiram A. Talbot, for Auditor
instead of Hiram E. Talbot. This mistake
is not yet large enough to defeat him. These
blunders are in the highest degree unpardon-
able, and should lead to the utmost vigilance
hereafter, in the supervision of ticket print
ing for State officers. The tickets thus
wrongly printed, will! of course be thrown
out of the court. The obvious intention Of
the voter, We think should have some weigh,
in the case, when no fraud is apparent in the
case.

SATURDAY MORNING, ::::::::OCT. %.


We have been much pleased with the
manner in which our proposal has been re-
ceived, to raise the price Of subscriptions on
the Daily Journal. Our patrons feel we'll
assured, that nothing but urgent necessity,
and the very fact that we are making nothing
on our subscription list at the present price,
could ever induce us to raise the price Of sub.
scription even single cent. That necessi-
ty and that fact have been staring US in the
face, not only during the present summer
since the price of paper, labor, &C., have so
materially raised, but really for years. We
were making little or nothing on Daily sub.
scriptions before the rise in paper, &C., and
had years ago contemplated increasing the
price Of subscription. But after the expe.
rience Of the last summer, we feel compelled
in defense Of our own interests, and to Sc.
cure little profit, wherein we have been
experiencing an actual loss, to substitute a
higher rate Of subscription for the Daily
Journal than ten cents per week. After q
conversation with the proprietor Of the En-
quirer, we find our own views have met with
his warm approval, and that he feels with
US, that such change is Indispensable
Next week, therefore, the new terms will be
made known, and we are satisfied, after con.
versing with many patrons on the subject,
that justice and liberality enough exist in
this community, to prevent any material re-
duction in our subscription lists from the in.
crease in price of the Daily papers. In
making this increase, we are but doing what
the other Daily papers all over the country
have already done, and which others must
initiate, or involve themselves, through sub.
scription lists that do not pay expenses.

The Enquirer of yesterday contains a
very well written composition headed ga
warning-He was drunk!" We commend
our neighbor for the excellent change in bis
moral sentiments since the election. We
have q very distinct recollection of an edi.
torial which appeared in the Enquirer few
weeks before the election, which defended
liquor drinking, and placed an excuse in the
lips Of every person disposed to drink. We
cannot lay our hand on the paper now, but
we shall take the trouble of hunting il up,
il this be desired. And we recOlect another
article in which our precious neighbor used
the following language: ga man might OBJ
ject that the same persons who committed
the crimes so often committed under the in.
faence of liquor, would have committed crime
had they never drank" Yesterday, the En-.
quirer gave an affecting picture of the man
who was tried a few days ago for stealing
,rhen drunk. And in this same article quoted
from above, our neighbor made several allu.
sions to the habits of people in Europe and
England, where "every body drinks" to prove
by these illusions that every body should
drink here; and in this connection he said:
"From the prince to the peasant. the
juice Of the grape is the pleasure, the solace,
or the necessity of all classes. The Euro.
peans have never imagined that dri king is
the cause of all crime. But the fecund soil
Of Americanisms has produced t; is taking
doctrine. He who changed water into new
did not take this view Of drinking, nor is the
idea incuIcated in the commandments given
at Mount Sinai, but we mus. remember that
the Apostles and the Prophets of old were
somewhat different from those of the 18th
century"
We are glad to see that even portion Of
the pernicious doctrines put forth by the
Enquirer before the election, are now repu.
dated by itself.
