The Prohibitory Liquor Law.

The Senate by a strong vote, nearly
two to one have passed the Prohibitory
Liquor Law, substantially as it come from
the Assembly with an important amend
ment however permitting the sale in limited
quantities and for private use of beer, wine
and cider of Wisconsin manufacture; and
thus amended the bill was to be acted on
in the Assembly on Wednesday. What
will be its fate in that body we cannot guess
as this is an amendment which that body
refused to incorporate in the bill before it
went to the Senate. We rather incline TO
the opinion however that it will be passed
in that shape. There are various opinions
even among strict temperance men, as to
the propriety and utility of such an act
some are inclined to accept 1t as the best
which can be had at present, trusting to
time to remedy its errors and make it more
perfect, while others regard it as fatally
defective principle and inconsistent in it
self we are rather inclined to side with
the latterclass, and think the bill from these
defects wi II fail entirely if any effect. The
Milwaukee Sentinel says" In its present
shape we think, that the law would COM
mand the ready obedience and very gen
eral approval of the people, We doubt
whether it will command the one or the 9TH
Ell, for all experience thus far, in connee-
ton with such laws, proves thatthose which
are partial in their character; tolerating IN
one what is condem ned in another and ma
king determinations without foundation
in principle or reason, secure neither the
approval or obedience of any person.
However, should the law pass, it will be
time enough to discuss its character, when
we know exactly what its character is.
P. Slater intelligence from Madison
informs us that the bill has been concurred
III by the Assembly as it passed the Senate
and is now before the Governor for his
signature. We predict it will be vetoed.
