THE CAYUGA CHIEF.-This sterling temperance
paper is published by T. w. & EMMA BROWN at
Fort Atkinson, Wis. Miss Brown is at the present
time in New York. She writes from Auburn-the
place where the Chief was formerly published
an interesting letter of editorial correspondence,
from which we make the following extracts:
The Tribune of tonight, has an article upon the
proper and most graceful mannerofw wearing hoops.
To my thinking, a duck paddles along with more
large as ever and very generally Even quite small
girls are hoped to the full extent of fashion The
law don't compel people to dress children in sem
sible manner. IL is as good as Punchs pest,
to see some of the ladies manage their hoops in the
rain and mud.
TO go from fashionable folles to graver SUBJ
ject have never known anything in the history
of the rum traffic. more fiendish than the re-enact-
ment of license law in this state. Without one
redeeming trait-a curse from first to last-the
traffic is again legalized The people demanded
protection from that which fosters crime, beggars
families, and destroys the happiness of homes
The liquor-sellers demanded the right TO impover-
sh and murder and they were needed.
A correspondent of the Chief, in letter from
Avoca, discourses as follows:
Our license law is truly a thing of beauty and
works charmingly. For thirty dollars, rum-sellers
may carry on their high and holy business of max
ing paupers and criminals, and wholesale murder
in legal manner, with all the judicial and execu-
tive power Of the state at their backs. What q
beautiful consistent law it Isl for thirty dollars 1t
gives respectable men the privilege of making
paupers, and then magnanimously applies said
money tor the support of the poor "-paupers,
of course. How well both ends meet" Capital

legislators OF New York-not the begrimed mon
arches of Afric's central heathendom-have passed
an act for the suppression of intemperance!
We watch the progress of this new chapter In
the reform history of New York, with fearful FORE
holdings. The result can be foretold without the
Gift of prophecy. The light of the past beams
ahead, and as clear as at MONDAY reveals the END
of this new and more internal betrayal OF human
ity. As bitter and sweeping now, as In other

in the hands of those more competent to cover the

The pretext that the act is to suppress intern

is anti-christian and Internal. And that any who
have toiled for years to stay the plague should be
deceived by the trick surpasses belief. Our cheek

this hour throw off our battered mail, strike the
old standard from its fastenings, and cease to urge
to the onset with our humble voices. Deeper and

by the hands of those who have stood beside us
when the unequal strife surged thickest. God
forgive them, for they will have much to answer
for. when our common father shall ask them,

The steamer Montreal was burned last night near
Carvings l2 miles above this city. There were about
500 passengers on board, mainly Scotch emigrants
about 175 were rescued by the steamer Napoleon.
1t is believed that many swan ashore and were
saved in other ways, but 1t is certain that as many
as 200 persisted in the flames or were drowned.
1t is said by those the Napoleon, that the lost
will fully number 300.

MORE TRUTH THAN PoETRY.-In an article on

The American idea is embraced in a simple

Administering 0aths.

There is not in the whole range of official
routine in America greater abuse than the
manner in which oaths are administered in
our courts of justice and magistrates offices
and before public tribunals and personages
generally. To witness the formula daily in
some of our magistrates courts is enough to
shock community pretending to christian-
ty. Magistrates who think far less of the
bible than they do of their fee or glass of
brandy, hand the sacred volume to the wit
ness without in most instances putting them
selves to the trouble to rise from their seats,
or even perhaps accompany the act with an
indOlent yawn or finish with a vulgar jest.
The result is the cause of Justice is impair
ed Jess than sacrilege committed, while if the
court or official escapes having induced by
his own levty, Indifference, or worse, down
right perjury, the merit all rests with the
honesty Of the witness or juror. The thing
should be reformed as it is a crying evil
Baltimore american.
The remarks of the american are most
true as relates to the manner in which oaths
are administered; but the opinion of the re-
sMt OF this may not be SO readily adopted.
In the earlier times, when the best of men,
in the masses, were little better than bar
barians, a necessity of some awe-inspiring
influence-the solemnity of an oath, which
should awe them with the powers of eternal
hell-may have been required to elicit any
thing like certain truth
But have not people now out-grown that
dispensationl. Even in Christ's time, he said,
"swear not at ALL" Is it not known and
felt by all judges, lawyers, and justices that
the form and manner of the oath have
scarcely any influence whatever on the wit
ness? Is it not known aud felt that atheists,
deists, and skeptics generally tell the truth in
court quite as faithfully as any other class of
Witnesses They fear no hell-fre, but, like
other men, they haze regard for truth, and
fear the penitentiary.
Would it not be well to abolish the form
uia of an oath altogether? Require every
one to testify when called on, and require
him to tell the truth under the penalty of
perjury, but administer no oath, 90 through
with no form, only ask the witness to give his
knowledge.
Would not truth be just as surely recev-
ed? Do not perjurers fear the peaitentiary
more than they do hell
As the american says, is not the admin
istering of oaths farcical and disgusting, as
now done, and ought not the whole system
70 be abolished p Chicago Ledger.
Grand River times. [volume] (Grand Haven, Mich.) 1851-18??, 1857-07-01

ADMINISTERING OATHs.-We publish a
sensible article on this subject from the
Chicago Ledger.
"Swear not at ALL" said one who spake as
man never did. Swear not at all, says the
better nature of every one, and the universal
language of nature echoes forth the same
precept.
"Swear by thy CREATOR" says man-made
law. Swear by all that is holy and all that
is evil says the practice of too many people.
We may be in error, but we believe that
the profanity which is SO prevalent at pres
ent, may be partly attributed to the GUS
tom of administering oaths in law. And we
believe that he who solemnly, and with due
deliberatiop makes oath as required by law,
commits greater sin than he who swears in
haste or momentary anger. In both cases,
the name of God is used in vain; but in one
case it may have been done thoughtlessly,
or in in binding passion, of which the evil
doer may afterward repent. In the other
case, there can be no such excuse made; the
act was deliberate and intentional, and the
pretext that it is necessary TO promote the
cause Of Justice is wholly groundIess.
