An Act has passed both branches of
the Legislature, and has received the sig
nature OF the Governor. ito regulate and
license the sale of spirituous. vinous, malt
and other intoxicating liquors. and to pro-
hlbit the adulteration of liquors. Its pro-
visions are briefly these; The person de.
string to sell shall give bond with at least
two freehold sureties, residents of the
County. to be approved by the Auditor, in
the sum of $500. that he will keep an or
derry house, &c. He shall pay to the
County Treasurer $50 as fee for license
for one year to be applied to tho Common
School Fund; to be fined not less than IS
nor more than $50 for selling to any per-
son who is in the habit of being intoxioa-
ted. after notice shall have been given him
by the wife, child, parent, brother or Sis

to1icating liquors are sold in violation of
this act. shall be deemed a common mi
sance and the keepers fined not less than

The Boston Courier is not Democratic
paper. but it speaks right out in relation to
the abomiuable Republican party. and states
facts that cannot be denied. That party
has claimed and does claim for itself many
projections. of which it is as ignorant as
horse is OF a holiday. We often hear the
members of that party speak of the "igno-
rance of Egypt while they are mingling
with the most miserable characters of cree
ton. But let the Courier tell the tale. 1t
says;
1t is singular circumstance in the his
tory and habits of the Republican party,
that so large portion of its acknowledged
leading men and leading journals are desti-
tute of truth. of honor. or even of ordinary
decency. What We mean to say is that the
Republican party, with all its claims to he
considered a respectable organization, pos
sesses the most scurrilous press. the most
selfish and venal leaders, and the most cor
rupt satellites which have fettered the limbs
of any political party since the formation
: this government. This truth is illustrated
whenever center Of opposition gathers a
round inself circle of ward.room politi

Broad An.

For the last week or ten days this conf
munity has been favored with the presenc"
and labors of an individual Familiarity
known by the cognomen Of the Buckeye
Broad AK The object professedly had
in view by Broad AK and his hackers, was
the promotion of the cause of Temperance;
an object worthy the labors of the wisest
and best Of our citizens--an object to be
desired by every lover Of peace and good
order, of virtue and morality; and one a
gainst which, no one who desires the pros
perity of our town, and community, would
say single word.
That some good has been accomplished
by the series of meetings which have from
time to time been held, is no doubt true
that some have in the attending excite
ment, signed the pledge, and may fer a
time abstain from the use Of intoxicating
drinks as beverage is also true; whether
they will long practice the virtues of tenn
perance and fidelity, after the excitement
cools down, time will determine. 1t is to
be hoped that many if not all may prove
faithful to their vows. An effort has been
put forth to dry up every liquor selling es-
adjustment in town, and a committee OF
ladies and gentlemen has visited most OF
these places and requested the prorrletors
to cease their traffic; what answers the
committee received we do not know, but
as vet meme have ceased 10 sell, whether
they will hereafter do SO, depends, per-
baps, more on the proftableness or UNI
proftableness Of the business, than wheth
err A B and c and their wives are pleased
or displeased with their operations in
other words, as long as Joe Guzzle' and
his friends call for their potations. just so
long will Bill Poisoner' deal it out to
them for their money. regardless of the
good or bad opinion Of Broad AK and his
followers.
Seriously, it is question in the minds
Of many good temperance men in the
community, whether, taking the whole
performance together, the good or the evil
preponderates, and perhaps the question
can not. be solved with certainty until furth-
err Developments are made. That the
minds of the people have been imbued
with the spirit of bitterness and mobocra
cy, and their mouths filled with an inde6-
mite amount of tho lowest slang ever ut
tered by fish moDger in Billingsgate. is
undenisble; and it is equally certain that
these lessons thus publicly taught have
hitherto been of rare occurrence here. =

AN eAclidnSe lufnisneS the lOlIOWlDg
synopsis Of the new Township bill, which
has become law:
The law provides that the commissioners
of each county may divide it into as many
townships as the convenience of the citi-
zens may require; the township and road
districts now established TO re main as they
are, subject to alteration as provided by
the act; each and avery township now or
hereafter to be organized is declared to be
a body polite and corporate, to contract
and be contracted with, sue and be sued in
any court having jurisdiction; on the first
Monday in April the qualified voters of
each township to select one trustee; the
duties of to wnship trustee are TO keep re-
cord of his official proseedings--to receive
all moneys belonging to his township into
convenient highway districts--to fill all
vacancies that may occur in the office of
supervisor Of hiehways--to see a proper
application Of all township for road, school
or other purposes. and perform all duties
heretofore required of township trustees,
clerk and treasurer under the supervisors
and school act--to have the care of and
management of all property, real and per-
sonal, belonging to the township-power
to administer oaths, &c; to be inspector Of
elections. overseer OF the poor, and fence
viewer; at the March session Of the Board
of County Commissioners with their advice
and consent to levy a tax on the property
of the township for township. road and
other purposes, but if the trustee and other
commissioners disagree, the latter are to
levy the tax; vacancies in the Office OF trus-
Zee to be filed by the County Commission
ers during term time; TO keep an accurate
account Of all moneys received and paid out
on account of separate funds and 10 whom
paid report the same annually to the Coun-
ty Board, to settle the accounts of super
visors of roads the last Saturday in Feb
ruary. and report to the County treasurer to
compensation for his services upon his
statements verified by oath, of
his charges and services, not to exceed one
dollar and fifty cents per day for all time
nessarily employed; the Offices of township
clerk and treasurer abolished after the ele-
ction Of trustee uHder this act; any person
elected or appointed trustee failing to per-
form any duty required by this act subject
to forfeiture not exceeding one hundred
dollars; the trustee to have no power to
change, vacate or open any highway in
any township. but such power to vest in
the Commits sioners under the same regula
tions as now provided by law in cases af-
fectinV more than one township.
1t will be seen from the foregoing abstact
that the duties now develving upon five Of
fees, (three trustees, clerk and treasurer
conferred on one Office This will be a
saving to the state of some seventy-five
thousand dollars in fees--a large item to
be saved to the taxpayers. By many 1t is
thought this one man power will be dang
erous. but others think it will make the
system more efficient as will as econom
zeal! The change is radical. The prac-
tical working Of the system can alone de-
termine whether the modification of the law
will prove advantageous.

From Washington.
WASHINGTON, Friday, March

WASHINGTON, rTluay, NarCh +.
Midnight The Presiden. and his
Cabinet are at the Capitol, occupying the
Vice Presidents room, and attending to
business In connection with Congress.
The Navy Appropriation bill, as passed,
legalzes the order of the Secretary
of the Navy giving rank to Engi-
neers and Assistants after the manner of
Surgeons and Pursers-C Commanders and
Executive officers to have precedence.
The Postmaster Generals physicians to-
night pronounced him out of danger.
A large number Of the Republican mem
bers did not vote on the resolution of
thanks to the Speaker, on the ground that
he did not vote on similar resolution for
Speaker Banks two years ago. The
two Southern men who tonight voted in
the negative. are Smith. of Virginia, and
McRae. of Mississippi.
All the general appropriation bills that
passed both Houses received the Presi.
dents signature.
The Postoffice Appropriation and Post
route bills failed to become laws. The
former appropriated about 100000. As
to whether an extra session will be called
in consequence of its loss, is matter for
Executive consideration. So far, no reli-
ance can be placed on the rumors TO that
effect.
Amid the confusion in the Clerks office
it cannot be definitely ascertained whether
any private bills which passed both Hous-
es, failed to receive the Presidents sigma
ture
The miscellaneous Appropriation bill
contains the section extending the treasury
note law for two years, and appropriates
S452, 900 for the Coast Survey. which
was agreed to with singular unanimity, be-
sides appropriations for the Lighthouse es-
adjustments. the survey of public lands,
and an appropriation for taking the next
census, DC.
The Ocean Mail Steamer bill was killed,
but there was appended to the bill to carry
into effect the treaty with the Decotah and
Tonawanda Indisns, an appropriation for

cenfederacy of the other States. l shall
receive her Senators upon the floor of Con-
gress with a heartfelt welcome when they
present themselves during the coming
week, and shall raise my voice in congra-
tulations as sincere as theirs on this glor-
ious consummation.
l am glad to see the States increasing in
number on the Pacific coast. Iwish to se
as grand power on the Pacific as we have
on the Atlantic, and both held together and
bound together by the great Mississippi
valley. This contiusat must become one

and if the principles of self-gcvernment and
of State Rights be fairly carried out in the
future, our 'confcderacywill extend over
the whole continent and adjacent islands
All we have to do is to preserve clearly and
distinctly those principles ON which our
Government was founded, maintaining self
government in the Territories, and the
sovereignty of each State, preserving the
constitution inviolate, and allowing every
State to form and regulate its domestic in
situations to suit itself, without interference
from any power on earth. Cheers.
We mrst repudlate and reject that fatal
heresy. lately proclaimed, that this Gov
eminent cannot endure as our fathers made
it, divided into free and slave States. Let
the principles of Popular Sovereignty, State
Rights, and the Federal Constitution be
carried out in good faith. and this confed
eracy will extend over the whole continent,
and endure forever, each State having just
such institutions and local regulations as
it desires, even il no two Of them are pre-
cissly alike. Oregon is another exem-
pli6cation of this principle. The admis-
sion of new State under circumstances
SO suspicious. and with history of which
our citizens are SO proud, is a just subject
of congratulaton. and l renew my thanks

The public are aware of the killing of
Mr.. Key. of Washington. by Mr.. sickles,
OF New York. This affair has gained a
very extensive notice, from the fact that
the parties to the affair have been con-
s'dered Of good character, and moved in
the "hrst circles" Mr.. Kew was the Uni.
ted District Attorney for the District of
Columbia. Mr. Sickles is member of Con.
gress from the third district of New York;
vas Secretary of Legation during Mr..
Buchanau's term as Minister to London,
and Is regarded as a man of fine abilities.
The cause which led to this fatal ARRAY
WAS personal intimacy between Mrs.
Sickles and the deceased. When Sickles
became fully convinced that bis wife had
brought dishonor on him, he confronted
her; and after convincing her that he knew
of the relations existing between herself
and Key. she made full confession of the
whole matter. in writing. and signed it in

the presence of witnesses. On going to
the door, Sickles saw Key in the street
waving his handkerchief in the direction
Of Mrs. SIS room. He was already over
burdened with sorrow, and this new ag-
gravation was more than he could bear.
He walked out toward Key, saying. "You
have dishonored me, and must die" He
fired three times. each shot taking effect
Key expired almost instantly. All those
acquainted with the circumstances, extend
all their sympathies to Mr.. Sickles, as his
mental sufferings have been, and are now,
greater than any punishment the law can
iuflict. The citizens of Washington are
almost unanimously in favor of his acquit-
tai. A judicial investigation has not yet
been had.

The Division Of the DcmOc-
racy..HOW to Heal them.

The Washington States, in expatiating, a
few days ago, on the division and distrac-
tons of the Democracy, stated its pur-
pose was to impress the party with the
necessity of immediate organization for
the contest in 1860. 1t is obvious and un-
deniable that except our scattered forces
be rallied, and plan of action be agreed
upon, We cannot hope to survive the
struggle before us.
To the end, therefore. of union and har-
mony among the Democracy, we have to
suggest the cultivation of more tolerant
and fraternal feeling than has prevailed
since the advent of the present Admins
tration. Without imputing blame to eth
err party--it is no time for recrimination--
we are free to confess that neither the Le-
compton nor anti Lccompton have mani
fesred sufficient forbearance of eachother's
peculiarities of opinion. Nor have the
Administration been as indulgent of casu-
al eCCcnlTtCitlcS NmOuS s"S's ''N"SANhsS "a
they might have afforded. considering their
solid strength with tbs country. On the
other hand, we have lamented the excess
i've irritability of those who thrown into
momentary resistance to the policy Of the
President. Let there be an end Of these
iealouses and resentments. The Lecomp-
ton question is an extinct Issue. With
wise men the past is of use only as it
affords lessons for the direction of their
future conduct. Let us then revert to the
