The Company, upon it's present scale of earnings,
expects hereafter to pay pr mpty upon the above,
well as upon the Sinking Fund Bonds. The road is
now dong good business, with monthly gain of
about $40 900 over 1859 in lis income. The Illinois
Central Railroad Company has made a call of s. v
share, ayable Goth July. This call will give them
about 5000 000 Which, with the arguments on full stock
and the proceeds of Eight Per Cent Bonds Sold will
put the Company in funds TO pay of the Freeland
Bonds maturing in September, now reduced to about
81 900. The payment of these bonds viii
release large body of the most valuable lands
held by the C mpsny. The interest Of the full
paid stock and Eight Per Cent Bonds can be easily
paid from the sales Of aLds, while the managers are
confident that the net traffic earnings Of the road will
be ample to meet the interest the $4,000 900 con-
strucon bonds outstanding. The House of Represent
ativt passed loan ill to-day authorizing ssus Of
S2l 100000 T. cent stock for the redemption of
Treasury notes. The Secretary Of the Treasury gives
notice. through the SubTreasurer Mr. Cisco that any
parties holding overdue Treasury notes EXCHANGE

The Madison Journal says it is requested by q
Republican friend to state, that Judge Dixon pre-

visions, and that it ought to be repealed, or es

Arrival OF the Asia.
TenDRr9MC&.

We rejoice to learn that in many towns and
cities, new impulse has lately been given to the
cause of temperance. The increase of the evil
of liquor drinking the woes and miseries in
duced by it, the pauperism, crime and degener-
acy Of public morals which are every attendant
on the excessive use Of intoxicating drinks, very
Justly excite the attention of the friends of hui
mainly and public virtue. In view of the evil,
communities are periodically awakened to the
necessity of reformatory measures, to assist the
tide of intemperance. 1t were better if temper
ance reforms were permanent and always pro.
gressive, rather than periodical and unlasting
nevertheless, 1T is better that communities should
be occasionally aroused to reformatory efforts
than that uniform Indifference should prevail
There is perhaps nothing to justify the belief
that the evils of intemperance are on the increase
in this community, still it must be admitted
there are many families that would be greatly
benefited, were they brought under the influ
ence of wholesome reform. Certain it ia tina,
little or nothing is being done by any organize
effort, to persuade either young or old, that the
free indulgence of intoxicating liquors is hazard.
Gus, and that temperance and sobriety are essen.
tial to the prosperity and happiness of communi-
ties.

Legal Reform .

The abolition of the collection laws, has very
properly been suggested as measure of saIuta-
ry reform; but there are other reformatory meas
ures, contemplated by the constitution of the
State, which since the adoption of that instru-
ment, have never yet received any legislative at
tention. Section Is Of article of the constitu-
ton provides as follows:
"The Legislature shall pass laws for the regu-
lation of tribunals of Cancellation, defining their
powers and duties. Such tribunals may be es-
tab!ished in and for any township, and shall have
power TO render Judgment obligatory on the par
ties, &c"
This provision Of the constitution contempla-
ted something more than providing for the ordi-
nary forms of arbitration. Those who were
members Of the constitutional convention, know
that it had reference to the establishment Of tri-
bunaIs of concilation such as exist in some Of
the countries Of northern Europe. In Denmark
the people elect from among themselves, once in
four years, persons who sit when called upon as
a tribunal Of conciaton before whom all mat
tiers Of difference must first be brouget this tri-
bunal hears and examines differences IN an infor-
NAL way. and determines according to equity
Whoever refuses to take his case to the trbuna
OF Cancellation for adjustment before going to
court Of law is required to pay all expenses o
the suit, whether he is ultimately the winner o.
the loser Of his case. Dr. Baird the wen know
intelligent traveller in Europe, remarksi "Thi
simple procedure relieves the people of nine
tenths Of the former costs Of litigation, and tn
higher law courts of vast amount of tediou
and expensive law suits" The same writer ais
informs us the conciliators discharge their dutie
without pay.
Several years before the organization of GU
present State government, bill was introduce
in our Territorial Legislature providing for trib,
nails cf the character above alluded to it me
with much favor, and possibly might have BIZ
come law, had it not been introduced near tn
close of the session. The favorable impressio
which the proposed system at that time create
in the minds of the people, led to the incorpor'
ton Of provision in the constitution as bas
Of future action for the legislature of tGe Stat
Since the adoption Of the constitution the wor
of legal reform has made but slow progress.
