" Bareain and Sale"

On the afternoon of "Wednesday, the 7th in
stant, quite an amusing scene was enacted in
the House OF Representatives, at Dover. After
the bill entitled, "an act to. provide mode ot

subject o. prohibiting the sale ot intoxicating
Liquors. oifere,. by Er. EIllgood, Of Sussex
had been read, Mr.. iIenry, ol. New Castle, rose
aud sid, That with all G,.e Difference for the
gentleman from SUSSEX ana his bill. he would
move that II be indefinitely postpon>' ID. !"
The Doctor was IN tIs feet IN an instant, and
asked The gentleman his reasons for the motion.
Mr.. H. replied, stating that there was already 4
bill for the suppression of intcmperance pend
lng.and he Thought 1t bot right that the fate OF
that blil should be ascertained before one of
this kind should be considered and further.
that a majority Of the legal voters of his couu-
ty, and large number N Kent and Sussex, had
petltIoned for Prohibitoary Law at this session,
and, he thought, particularly as no COUNTER Pc
tltIon had been received, their request ourht 10
be complied with. .-.. s.r.. .l...r a.'
DR.. E. replied by stating that he cared not
what number OF petitions were sent in-not il

This rich and astute speech Of the Doctor
convulsed the House with laughter. honH n
Mr.. Wilson, whose vote on the amendment
of the charter (reIatv,e TO an alteration in The

nuonsly objected to by the gentleman from
Sussex, and which was ruled out by the spea ker
because Mr. w. was stockholder, and conse
quenty, an interested party, rose and said'
/ He was very sorry to hear the eentIemor

as hehad done so, he should object to tie Teenr,

Sussex AND PRoHIBl TION.--It has heretofore
been considered that Sussex county is opposed
to, or, at least, Indifferent whether Prohb-
tory Liquor Law is enacted by the Legislature,
at its present session, or not; but, Judging from
the number of petitions pouring into both
House: from that good old county, praying for
its enactment, we are inclined to opine that she
has been grossly slandered-Dr. Elligood's
statement to the contrary Notwithstanding

The PRoHIETroRy BILL will be found on the

the approval of every friend to the cause. 1t
does not include the right Of search, which is
objected to by so many, though it is considered
one of the best provisions in other States.--
There is nothing ultra about it. 1t has been
amended by striking out the clause torbidding
manufacturing, and instead of cider being
sold in less quantities than 25 gallons, one
gallon is substituted. The former vas consid-
cred necessary, as alcohol is used for many
mechanical and artistic purposes, such as burn
ing fluid, &c And instead of sale of wine in
less quantities than five gallons one gallon is
substituted.

0%F On Wednesday last, says the Reporter,
the Prohlbltory Liquor bill was called up i;1r7 a
final reading, when Mr.. J. j. Henry moved to
strike out the clause relating to the manufac-
tare Of intoxicating liquors. DR., EIlgood
offered proviso to the bill, that the law should
in no wise, apply to Sussex county. Mr. Mckee
SAID, he had no doubt that the people from that
county wanted the law, Judging from iniorna-
ton he had Mr.. Eligood SAID he was elected
with the understanding that he would oppose
the bill. Mr.. Powell seemed to think that
while the gap was open, giving Sussex chance
to slip out, Kent had as well slip out also.
Ii the latter gentleman had been from the
same locality as the gentleman from SUSSEX, we
should not have been surprised at his course
BY the way, we think the gap is wide open for
him to slip out--.as far as he is concerned, the
tide of popular opinion is tending outward, and
may it never Change.
