Gov. Walkers LIoUoR BILL.-When Gov.
Walker landed at Leavenworth, on the 25th OF
May last. the City Council passed resolution
rendering the hospitality Of the city to the new
Governor. The Governor was requested to ad-
dress the citizens who had assembled in large
numbers in front of the Planters House. This
he declined to do but in lieu thereof had bottles
of brandy and champagne to the value ofSzl0
distributed amongst the crowd present, and this
bill has been presented BY the proprietors ofthe
Hotel to the city for payment. The committee
to whom it was referred reported against paying
it for the following good reasons
We are first opposed to the allowance OF this
bill because it was ot contemplated by the city
council that the hospitality OF this city, SO gem
erously rendered his excellency, should be thus
abused.
And in the secoud place, that it would estab-
lish a dangerous and pernicious precedent.
And in the third place, we will not give our
influence nor open the city treasury for the en-.
couragement Of intemperance, the mother OF
crime. ss.4s

ing the best farming accounts We have seen yet
Il would be well If portion Of our village PoPa-
