DAVID PAUL BRowN, lectured in Cleveland last
week. Not, as it seems from tho papers, with much
credit to his reputation as an orator. Thomas
Brocn of the Ohio Farmer says:
How much better if the Lecturer instead OF
coming mere as Darid Paul Broom had come under
the more comprehensive, and less exacting name
OF MIR. Brown; for in that large family Of which
we happen to be a member, there are doubtless
enough whose reputation would not suffer, oven
from such a lecture, bu; it was too bad to put i. on
Darid and Paul.

LOOKING uP.-The Shareholders are quite exuI-
tant over their recent agricultural and literary
progress. Let the North look out for competition.
Arkansas has actually sent l 900 sacks of wheat
to market! One of the first shipments say the
papers ever made from that State. While Arkan-
sas Is Jubilant over her 1000 bags of wheat, Nash
VILE is equally exhilerated by the fact that a copy
OF the Bible has actually been printed within her
corporation limits. The first says tho Southern
Christian Adcocate, ever published south of the
Ohio and Potomac rivers. ITurra for the Chivalry Z
What miracle of progress will they next achieve.

Dickens on Prohibitory Legislation.

An article, unmistdkaoly ifom ING pen OF DICK
ems, appeared some months ago in Household
Words" in which new and curious view Is taken
OF the principles and practice Of the prohibitlonsts
The position taken by the writer is that the Maine
law and is congeners refer and defer exclusively
TO the worst members Of society, passing over, as
matters OF no moment, the comfort and convent
ence of the best. The question, according to Dick
ems, is not " what do the decent mechanic and his
family want and deserycs" but Y what will the
yagabond idlcr, drunksrd, or jail-brd turn to bad
accounty AS ii thore were anything in the wide
world which the dregs of humanity win turn to
good account" The art Of writing is converted
by the hand Of the forger into positive evil, and
there Is scarcely any gift of God, or product Of
mans industry and ingenuity, which may not be
prostituted to criminal purposes The following
illustration from the article referred 10 Is 0rcible
and amusing:
g Job Smith suffers heavily at every turn Of his
life, and at every inch Of its straight course, too,
from the determined ruianism in which he has no
: more part than he has in the blood royal. Six
days Of Jacobs week are days Of hard, n,onoto-
nous, eahaustng work. Upon the seventh Job
thinks that he, his old woman and the children
could find it in their hearts to walk in garden, II
they might, or to look at picture, or plant, or
even colossal toy made in imitation of some of
the wonders Of the world. Most people would be
apt to think Job reasonable in this. But up starts
Britannia, tearing her hair, and crying, Never,
ncverl Here is Slogans with the broken nose,
the black eye, and the bulldog. What Job Smith
uses, Slogans will abuse. Therefore Job Smith
must not use.' So Job sits down again in d killing
atmosphere, little weary and out OF humor, or
leans against post all Sunday long.
at Is not generally known that this accursed
Slogans is the evil genius Of Jobs life job never
had in his possession, at any ono time, little cask
Of beer or bottle Of spirits. What he and his
family drink in that way is fetched In very small
portions indeed from the public house. However
difficult the Westminster Club gentlemen may find
il to realize such an existence Job has realized il
through many u long year and he knows, infinite
ly better than the whole Club can tell him. at what
hour he wants his drop Of beer and how it best
