SAD DISTANCES. The Evening Gazette
in a dispatch from Washington, says
that "MTs, Salisbury appealed person
ally TO Senators not to press the resOlu-
ton expeling her husband, promising TO
take him home to Delaware No man
could resist such an appeal It is i'm.
possible TO think of such an incident
without emotion, Mr.. Salisbury is 3
man of very marked abillties,-one of
the ablest, most cogent and effective
speakers in the Senate, Of fine personal
appearance, tall, erect, dark complexion.
with piercing black eyes and jet black
hair, courtly and impressive in his man
ner, and of noble and generous impulses.
But for the disease which atilicts and
Oyermasters him, he would be one of
the most influential public men of the
Senate in the country. Yet he is saved
from ignOminious expulsion only by the
sympathy felt FOR his noble and devoted
VIE. Another Senator, whose term has
inst eEnired,-a man Of clear intellect,
finished culture and fascinating man
ners, but cursed ~ the same affection,
was tolerated in the Senate only from
a similar motive. One Of the most
touching sights to be seen in
Washington during the session was the
presence in the gallery of his wife and
daughter, waiting night after night
often till long past midnight, anxious
and distressed, to accompany him to
their home, 1t may be said to his credit
that, whatever he may have been to the
rest of the world, he was never anything
but respectful, obedient and tender to
them

A RAID.-Rutland has taken its turn
with the larger towns of the State in
declaring opposition to the violators OF
the prohibitory law. Some days since
about twenty of our leading citizens
formed an association, having for It's OBJ
ject the prosecution according to law of
all violators Of the statute in this re-
spect, and as consequence, Sheriff
Field and Deputy Briggs, assisted by one
of the members of the Executive Com
mittee of the association above alluded
to, yesterday forenoon visited the vari-
GUS hotels and saloons in our village, as
well as the express Office, and Contlscated
what intoxicating liquors they could
find on the various premises. The amout
seized was six barrels of whisk6y and
about fifteen barrels Of beer, though, it
is believed more would have shared the
same fate had not the vendors got wind
of the contemplated raid, and got their
liquors out of the way of the investi-
eating committee. We are pleased to
See these confiscatory measures inau-
gurated, and trust they will not be
stayed until rum is put hors do combat in
