ENFORCING TIE MAINE LAW.

Many opponents of the Maine Law admit that the
suppression of the Liquor Traffic would be great
public blessing but they insist that IL can't be done and
that the attempt, being bailed. will cause reaction
ard deuge of drunkenness.
Now we have never supposed nor ayerred that Pro
hbitory lava would entirely suppress lntemPerance
any more than they will Gambling Lewiness Taslt
or Murder. We only insist that, as we have fewer
lottery tickets sold here than had when lotteries
were licensed and ess gambling than should have il
gaming .louscs were licensed, and lees ewiness than
we should have if places of lewd resort were COM
tenenced by the laws, so Liquor Prohibition mist
inevitably tend toward Liquor disuse and rejection

A correspondent Of TIE Green Mogatain Herald
writes from the frontier wilds of Maine as follows:
MAPLE Grove AroOstook Co, Me, March 81. 1854.
MIR EDITOR doubt not that many Of your readers are
watching with deep interest to learn tho success OF the
Maine Liquor Law in the State where ii originated.
am that the newspaper accounts are various and
contradictory This is owing in part to incorrect state
nents Of scheming politicians bu, mainly apPrehend to
the yarous degrees that have attended the
forcement of the law in different parts Of the State have
watched the movements pertaining TO THIS law until am
willing opinion concerning its final triumph.
That your readers may be able to Judge whether my
opinion is well grounded, will state few facts
l. The law has not been enforced in every portion Of
the State.
In msny places where has been enforced the sale Of
liquor has rot been wholly prevented.
In other places where the open and unrestricted sale
has been stopped it is sold in elandesne manner.
T. In almost every place where the law was enforced
year ago ii is now enforced with less opposition.
The law is enforced At east one third moro
territory in this State than was twelve months snee

These facts show the increasing popularity OF the Malne
Liquor law and bespeak in language that cannot be mis-
understood, its final triumph.

of The Christian Enn5assadOr writes Of the Law 10

NORTH CARoLINA.-Mr. Clingmsn has been en-
abed to fulfill his compact with the North Carolina
Democracy to the letter, by carrying the Bun
combe District to their camp and has earned his Sen
atorship He and Gov Reid will be elected with little
difficulty, the joint majority in the two Houses being
ample SO Badger has lived deep into the Nebraska
Iniquity in defiance of all the instincts of his intensely
conservative nature, for less than nothing. Had he
taken his stand early and firmly on the side of Good
Faith, he might have been reelected. With his fall
vanishes the last rational hope of maintaining an
effective Wing array in the South There msy still
be the ghost of one such Western LOco.FOco de-
fnedth Wing party, an institution kept up by the
democrats to enable them to win beta, but nothing
more. Bragss majority for Governor owing to the
great change effected in Clingmans District is now
said to be 1000.

THE CRYSTAL PALACE.

twill doubtless delight the souls of our Philadel-
phia friends to hear that the Crystal Palace, which
they have so often and so oyously proclaimed broken
down. shut up. &c. has been completely renovated
and reftted and is this day the most comprehensive
and instructive Exhibition ON this continent The
new Superintendent, Mr.. Kingsbury, has been de-
voting some days to visiting and comforting with the
Eastern manufacturers and meets very general and
hearty response to his applications for new contrbu-
tons He is confident that the Fall Exhibition,
which will commence with the distribution of the
awarded Medals on the evening of Thursday Sept 1,
will be the fullest the most varied, the most inter-
esting. that America ever witnessed. 1t is partcu-
srly desirable that all who propose to exhibit Ma
chinery Inventions, &c. should have them in place
before the lst of September. Meantime, the Ex-
htition is only open through the day, and makes no
special effect to gain attention, but strangers pass
ing through our City will do themselves great inju
tce if they neglect to visit it, 1t will close posi-
lively on the lst of November.
