II is really too bad that this selling Of liquor
to the Indians cannot be stopped. Those who
sell it know well the consequences that must en-
sue. Ehey know that the lives and psoPssty
of the whites are placed injeopardy. They
know the light I'M uhich'the government views
the act, that it is denounced as crime and in.
tended to sbs punished with great severity
Any man who will sell liquor 10 an Indian at
this. day, does not deserve ITO be numbered
among civilized people, and should be branded
and denied the rights Of hospitality wherever
he goes.-M. .Hafhomy Express. ..aas
.Egr: Why not go further, and say that who
ever sells liquor 10 white men "shouId be bran
ded and denied the rights of hospitality wher-
ever he goess" 1t is not only the Indian who
becomes crazy through the influence Of liquor,
and then steals and kills, but others educated
in refined society, and possessing advantages
the Indian does not--these also are instigated
to deeds Of evil. and all through the influence
of RUM! 1t is sad enough to see the poor,
untutored savage Keeling and raving from the
effects Of the white man 5 fire-watcr, but it is
ten-fold more sad to see tone "born to great
ness," plucled from his orbit Of usefulness,
condemned as murderer, and at last ending
his career on the gallows. And all this through
indulgence in strong drink! Carry your con-
demnation further, neighbor,-let it cover the
whole ground, ard fall alike on all, and then
we will combine our efforts in the removal Of
that which has broughtthc least happiness into
the world and produced the most misery.
Eg A resolution disappearing of the con.
duct of the President Of the United States, for
removing John E. Warren, from the office of
U. S. District Attorney for the Territory Of
Minnesota, passed the Council yesterday by a

\ WONDERFUL CASE OF DRUcGlNG.-We have
been Informed by a medical friend, says the New
York Home Journal, of most wonderful case of
drusgins in this city. This patient was lady,
who died a few days since, with cancer upon
her breast. For seven weeks previous to her
death, VIC are told, she drank every day pint of
laujanum and a quart of alcohol. And yet this
enormous dose, which would have killed at once
sound person, was absolutely necessary for her,
to sustain her nervous system and relieve her pain.
Only two instances of cqu,l amount are foucd
upon record-one that of DeQuincy, who drank
pint of hudanum a day, and the other, a case
reported by DR.. Clark. A singular phenomenon
attending this lady's sickness, was tho formation
of deposits in the palms, of her hanls--a round
dark circle, as of laudanum itself. OF course,
even salamander could not hope to endure such
doses a very great length Of time.
