Mysterious Absence of Louis Fox, the Bill
lard Player.


Apprehensions are felt by the family and
friends of Mr.. Louis Fox, the distinguished bill
lard player, of this city, as to his safety. He
has not been seen or heard from since Tuesday
forenoon of last week, when he left his residence
on North Clinton street, apparently in his usual
health and spirits. few minutes later he was
met by Mrs. c. A. Kellogg at the west end of
Andrew Street Bridge, and that is the last that
is known of his movements. For two or three
days 1t was supposed that he might have gone
TO New York. He had been talking of visiting
that CITY, but as he took no baggage or change
OF clothing it was supposed that his absence
could not be protracted beyond day or two.
Eight days have now elapsed without bringing
any tidings OF him, and il seems to us that the
alarm of his family is fully justified by the cir.
cumstances, especially as his most intimate &C
quaintances in New York and other cities say,
in reply 10 kilograms, that they have not seen
or heard of him.
Mr.. Fox carried an umbrella in his hand
when he left home, and is supposed to have
had about one hundred dollars in money in his
pocket.

will be for the year 1865, from the LIST

sources, including interest on notes, mort

profits from speculAtions, and from sales
of lands bought aud SAID within the year,
and from sales of stock withou: regard TO
the time when purchased, il sold within

embracing all the above items, is based
upon the actual sales made within the
year, without regard to the time when
produced. Corn produced IN the year OF
1862, 1863, or 1864, for Instance, and
sold during the year 1865, must be inclu-

and he took command of the storming
party that captured wha. was left Of

have never heard that he made any effort
to save the brave old enthusiast from the

John Brown raid. John Brown sleeps

E. Lee is at large on the parole of SOL

to accomplish their work.

1t was also once regarded as SOCIAL
duty to offer liquor to visitors, just as
when they deemed one hungry they would
offer food. Liquor was even used at fun
erals, and on occasions when it was not
produced it was regarded as an evidence
oc want of respect for the dead. Joy
and sorrow alike demanded it then; now
it is not generally thought of in connec-
tion With either emotion.
There is nowhere so much drunken
ness as there gas formerly, even within
my early recollection. The Temperance
movement or something else has brought
a great improvement. By our help or in
spite Of it there has been progress among
the decent and respectable classes. There
are still many who drink very regularly,
and quarrels, riots and other crimes that
grow out of the habit, are frequent; but
withing 32 years American society has
become comparatively ahstemious, and It
~ orogress was ONLY felt among the
msmbers Of the Temperance societies
there might be danger, but it is felt in the
social condition Of all classes.
1t is not, however. sufficient that men
should be temperate. The rum seller dis
likes drunkards, for they injure his bust
ness, and druukards themselves will tel
you that they love temperance. Drunk
euness is an abuse: temperance, they say,
is drinking to exhiliration, not to stupid
ty. l unfold another idea. In SO far as
you are at all effected by alcoholic stimu
lants, you are poisoned. Temperance is
in using in moderation what is useful ano
wholesome, and in absta hing totally from
what is poisonous and harmful. Inte.n-
perauce is an excess in the use of whole
some articles, and any use at all Of arti
cles which are hateful Alcohol is per
