In Congress yesterday, the SENATE passed the
bills for the improvement of the Chicago harbor
and the mouth of the Milwaukee River The Fiji
teen Million Loan bill was then taken up. Mr..
Bell made an elaborate speech, in which he re.
viewed with severity the policy Of the Admininis.

Chief Justice Shaw of Massachusetts has fairly
electrified the backward. looking Press and Public by
hs annunciation of the judicial rule that public nui
.ance may be abated without delay or ceremony by
any one or more citizens who may be agerieved by
it. Nobody even affects to doubt that this is and
has been the law; the reco is from its application
to erog shops. This brings more clearly into view
the truth that We have repeatedly urged--this,
namely, that the questions which divide the advo-
Gates of Total Abstinence from their opponents are
questions of fact, not Of principle or policy. Is
Alcohol poisonl Is grogshop a public nui-
sance As you answer these questions in tho affr-
native or negative, you take your side with the
Temperance men or with their antagonists. If
Alcohol is poison-f all Alcoholic Beverages, in
so far as they are Alcoholic, are at least thus far
pOisonous-then should their sale be 80 regulated
by law that persons ignorant of their noxious quail
tiles should not be deceived aud damaged by them.
And if grog shop be nuisance of the worst kind,
and it is nearly or quite impossible to abate it by
legal process becau.e of any defect in the laws or
obliquty of vision the part Of those WHO act as
Judges and Jurymen--then is their abatement by
the shortest method not merely legal, but abundant
ly justfabe.
For years, the illegal Liquor Traffic has thriven
on Che assurance of IMMUNITY afforded by the con
.titutiona scrupIes of liquOr-loving jurymen. The
keepers of grog.shops have said" If We are pros
" ecuted, the jury won't agree"-and such has
often been the fact. But the legal doctrine more
clearly enunciated by Judge Shaw is a Roland for
this Oliver An Illegal grog shop, being public

to the altar. The marriage proceeded
with regularly until the fair one was
asked the question. "Wilt lhou have this
man for thy welded hu>baud?" To which
with much apparent sincerity. she re.
piled, NO" The poor bridegroom gaz"d
upon her with aStunishmrnt; but no cx
postulation could induce her 10 altar her
resolution. She frankly replied that she
had just seen gentleman whom she liked
better. This declaration soon brought
matters to a crisis. The marriage cere.
m"ny. Was suspended. and the clergyman
politely conducted the parties to different
doors The bridegroom, more disguised
with such conduct than mortified at his
IsaPpuintment, declared that his affec.
uOnS from that moment were alienated
and that nothing should induce him TO
take the lady, even if her resolution were
to alter. Mr.. G. B., the ladv's own
hro'hrr. timing him in such good spirits
intimated that, rs n splendid dinner would
be prepared at his house. much time and
expense would be spared il he would re
;urn 10 the church and conclude the cere-
mOny with one of the brid,smnh. The
hint was instantly taken. and the propo-
sails made. and as the fair one herself had
no objection. a special license was in.
stantly procured. they got married at the
identical church, on the identical morning
and aFterward partook oi the identical
dinner which had been prepared for the
changeable one.
