From the Crusader.
wHIsKEY LOGIC.

A learned and influential political Editor,
after deploring the prevalence of intemper'
ance, says:
"The enactment of laws to suppress the
vice seems to increase rather than lessen
mems appetites for liquor. The greater the
difficulty in gratifyingany passion, the strong
er does it become; hence all the legal oh.
stacles thrown in the way Of whiskey drink.
ers seem but to increase their desire to drink,
as it appears by experience"
What profound logic! what a mighty ar
gumentagaipst prohibitory laws! This wri.
ter would have greatly improved the model
PRAYER of our Lord. He would have said,
" Lead us into temptation, deliver US moi
from evil" Why? The removal of temp
tation to evil only sbarpens the appetite
for it If we are surrounded with vice We
will be less likely to 60 astray! =
According to this Philosopher the more
grogshops in any neighborhood the better
Make the way to death and bell easy, and
more will be secured, than if you hedge it
about with difficulties If the passion of
~avarice takes possession of a man and it be-
comes 30 strong that he covets his neigh
boris property, safes and bolts and bars only
tempt him the more to crafty his passion,
and will make him a thief or burglar. All
the barriers that virtue can throw between
innocence and lust only increase the desire
of the debauchee.
When we remember that the appetite for
whiskey is not natural, but artificial, the
absu1dity of the writer's position is still more
transparent.
1t is the supply of whisky in any locality
that creates a demand for it Cut of this
supply, and when a few old soakers have de-
parted hence, the demand for "distilled dam'
nation" will entirely cease. Nobody pro.
poses to eradicate appetite by law, but we do
propose to remove the temptation, that hab.
its Of vice may not be formed, and deprayed
appetites created.
Does "eapertence" prove that prohibltory
laws increase the number Of drunkards! II

INTERESTING DECISIONS UNDER THE Pooh
DEBTOR LAw.-By the following from the
Boston Traveller of last evening, 1t will be
seen that an interesting case, similar to that
of Il. d. Stone in this city, has come before
the Supreme Court in Boston, and Judge
Bigelow has given an important decision res
peeting it;
" An opinion was this morning given BY
Judge Bigelow of the Supreme Court. upon
a portion of the Act OF 1857 regarding i'm
priSonment for debt.
The case was that of Hamilton Willis
brought before the Court upon a writ Of ha
beas corpus on the ground that he was un-
lawfully imprisoned, there having been no
charges of fraud fled as provided by the act
OF 1857, and that he vas, therefore, impris-
oned as poor debtor and not as fraudu-
lent debtor; that if lawfully imprisoned, he
WIS, under the former statutes, entitled at
least to the liberty of the Jail limits, and
could not be held i'll close confinement.
The Court held that under the Act of 1857,
regarding the imprisonment of fraudulent
debtors. party was priDsa facje fraudulent
DEBTOR alter the creditor had made the oath
required by that act before the arrest could
be made.
That when the debtor had been duly ar
rested, and carried before proper magistrate,
where it appeared the debtor having had an
opportunity to clear himself from the charge
OF fraud by taking the poor debtors oath had
failed SO to dc, the statute expressly provided
that he should be committed to jail and that
IRON the decision Of the magistrate there was
no appeal. That the statute of 1867, repeal
ed all former statutes relating to said limits,
and that the debtor mnst be kept in close
confinement.
That in this case it appears that Willis has
been duly arrested; had been carried before
proper magistrate; had failed to clear him
self from the c} arge of fraud; was righteous
" committed, end could not be discharged as
prayed for.
The Court therefore ordered Willis to be
remanded to Jail, and there kept in close
confinement until he could discharge himself
IN manner provided by statute
