The License system

The following is the Report of the
standing Committee on Temperance, in
the lower House of our State Legislature,
on SO amending the Constitution as to
permit the granting of license for the
sale of Intoxicating liquors. We may
have something to say on this subject
hereafter. The following is the Report:
The standing committee, to whom was
referred the memorials of the subject ol
amending the constitution so as to return
to the license system, have had the same
under consideration and ask leave to sub.
NIT the following report.
Your committee has. no hesitancy ir
arriving at the conclusion, from the facts
before them, that the clause in the con.
stitution prohibiting the granting of Ii
cense to traffic in intoxicating liquors has
most signally failed to accomplish tina,
great and desirable end for which the
people of the State designed it, and in
stead of putting stop to the traffic in
and the sale of tina article, has only ha6
the effect oftaking the sale of Intoxicating
liquors out of the hands of responsible
persons, under the care of proper judi
cisl authorities and placing the same il
the hands Of irresponsible persons, whit

Daring Robbery.

The Coshocton County Treasury was
robbed last week by three bold villains, of
$4,000. 1t appears that the Treasurer
was kept late.in Office, redeeming orders.
it being during the session of court, and
as he was about to lock up, three men
entered, one of them asking the amount
of tax on q certain town lot. When he
turned around to get the tax book, a
shawl was thrown over his head, he was
gagged and pinioned to the floor. The
villains then took the keys from his poe
ket, and opening the safe, abstracted
$4,000, chiefly in gold. A reward Of
50, 900 is offered for the apprehension ol
robbers, and So, 600 for the recovery Of
the money.
Several Of the Republican papers, with
characteristic dishonesty, are charging
this loss upon the Sub-Treasury Law,
just as though it would not have been Of
easy to overpower the Treasurer any
place else as in his Office

Prompt Payments.

The life and soul of any business is
prompt payments. A man may do a
heavy business, he may make large pro-
fit on his wares. he may employ large
capital, but without prompt payments, he
will often find himself embarrassed. -
When his bills or notes become due it
affords him less consolation to find ST.
900 dollars on his books than half as
much in bis drawer. Every merchant
and mechanic, and especially every news
paper publisher will not cnly attest the
truth Of the above, but will add "behold
the half is not toldl"
Few customers or patrons appreciate
the Importance of prompt payments of
their bills, on account, frequently, of their
small size. 1t is too often forgotten
that the chief part of these book accounts
is made up of small bills. 1t often oc-
ours that those who are best able to pay
WV suCu1oCASCo lCCi tuC tcdSL ue6u Ol
money are most slow in paying.
The books of this Office furnish a good
illustration of the above. We have near
100 subscribers who are indebted for
from 5 to 10 years subscription, and more
than one fourth of that number who owe
for from 10 to IA years; nearly any OF
whom could pay their bills any month in
the year without serious Inconvenience.
The interest which the publisher loses
BY these long-running accounts is double
as much as the profit would be if paid
punctually. 1t is the same with a mer.
chant mechanic or farmer. If he sell
bis merchandise or produce at 25 pei
cent profit and waits three years for pay
ment, he is q loser. How much more
then, is he loser who waits from Eve tc
fourteen years!
If ali would pay up as punctually a,
they could, hard times would scarcely b,
felt. 1t would be better for the business
man, and better for lis customer

The Noble County Champion

Occasionally we find in our exchanges
the challenge of Mr.. j. J. Deck,
of Noble County to Mr.. Thos. Hyer to
fight for $4,000. We have heard a num-
ber of bets offered that there will be no
fight, but we hear of no takers. We ad-
wise our sporting friends not to take these
bets, or they will find themselves taken.
Mr. Deck, we are informed, departed this
life about twenty years since. His Zanes-
vile antagonist is "culled gemman,"
and could probably, in flush times, with
the aid of his friends, raise 374 cents oil
the $4,000. He once entered the prize
ring, and was successfu!-he went in for
a cigar stump after the combatants had
left, and succeeded in pocketing it. Let
no one be "skeert," no one will be hurt.

why the Pubic Works are not
Sold,

We gave our views upon this point
last week, stating that the bill would
probably not pass the Senate, on account
of the Canal members in the Senate, and
the Canal lobbies who surround it. The
following, which we find in the Chronicle,
from the Senator from the Belmont and
Jefferson district confirms what VIC
said:
1--WE learn, by letter, from Hon. Isaac
Holloway, that his health has so far re.
covered that he is now at his post attend.
ing to bis duties. He doubts the pos.
sibility of effecting sale of the Public
Works on account of the immense pecu.
mary interest of members of the Leglsla.
ture and official lobbies."
Think of it! One branch of on,
Legislature thus completely under the
control of the Canal Clique!

The following bills were introduced

penses of the Northern Ohio Lunatic
Asylum for the year 1859. And to au.
thorize the Town Council of Calais, in
Monroe county, to levy tax for the pur-
pose of improving the streets of said
town.

successor. Mr.. Douglas followed saying
that the President had removed ell his
(DouglasD friends in Illinois and appoint
ed dishonest men in their places-that he
had sent 5000 documents to Illinois,
and that he would give 500 for every
one that had been delivered--that bis
letters were often either stopped entire
ly, or broken open and read, and then
sent on,-that the new appointees in Hi.
nois were knaves and scoundrels. There
Mr.. Fitch, who has son holding Fed.
eral Office in Illinois, said it was not
true. Mr.. Douglas repeated it. Much
confusion, and cries of order ensued.-
The never-failing JET. Davis then said the
language of Mr.. Douglas was that of 6
bravo and highwayman. Great confusion
motions to adjourn, cries of order &C.,
followed.
When peace was restored, Davis apol
ogized to the Senate, and then to Mr.
Douglas: Fitch apologized to the Sen
ate, but not to Mr.. Douglas
In the evening Mr.. Douglas sent
friend to demand retraction of Mr
Fitch. The affair wound up by Nh
Fitch retracting his remark, and Mr.

Profound Interrogatories.

A correspondent of the Noble County
Republican in reviewing President Buch.
anan's administration, completely demol.
ishes the President and administration in
the following mastery manner:
"Now, the Administration claims that
Congress has no right to interfere with
slavery in the territories. Did not Con.
gress exercise that power when they
passed the Missouri Compromise bill?-
Did not that bill say tnat North of Ma
son & Dixon.s line, slavery should not
exist not even in the territories, while
South of that line, all territories shoul d
be held as slave territories until abolished
by their own State laws2"
Mr.. Buchanan will certainly resign i'm.
mediately. And won't Mr.. Mason and
Mr.. Dixon be mad when they find that the
Democrats have repealed their line?

asking each other hard questions. One
asked, "what kind of animals was il thai
Noah didn't have in the ark?"
They all replied "none," snd referred
for authority to their Sunday school tracts

three different kinds i"
The other boys held consultation, aut
agreed to give it up. "Well said one.
we give it up; now, what was theyi"
"Fish, mules aud abolitionists," sait
number one.
That boy is our choice for the Presi
dency whenever nobody else wants it.

A Vile Wretch.

A miserable wretch gave the following
toast in the hearing of several disguised
gentlemen:
The Professor of Sharon:-Like the
roses of Sharon, be is very beautiful, bu
brings forth no good fruit.
This was drank in soap-suds. We on
ly mention it that the worthy head o
Sharon college may visit terrible retribu
tion on the perpetrator by sending him hi
"picter." Send it to him, Professor; 1t i
a severe punishment, but it will be warn
ing to others.
