OpurH L1cFvsF-On Thursday last Mr. Barlow
sold N auction "a license To import and sell opium t"
Cinnamon for the term # one year. by law, the
unset price Is fixed ct 5000, with a bond in the sum

or furnishing opium, or any preparation OF OPIUM
without license. l. not less than S1Uo nor more thah
$500. or imprisonment for a term not exceeding SIX
months. The license sold on THURSDAY, brought
SllO over the upset price Of $1,000. The argument
used by those who uphold this plan Of legalinng
r5Sitive and increasing evil, i that were there no

fact. now quite well known, that since the passage OF
the law referred 10 above, the use Of opium among

The supreme court in this state having
decided that the acts Of congress of March 3,
1868, and Of May IL, 1866, declaring that
"any order of the President, or under his au-
thority, made at any time during the exist
ence of the rebellion, shall be defence in
all courts to any action or prosecution, civil
or criminal" and arbitrary arrests to be I'M
constitutional, we may expect such proseeu-
tons to be more plenty than they have been.
While it is proper that the bitter partisan
feelings stimulated BIZ the. war. should be
forgotten, it is also proper that men engaged
in the lynching business in the contest
should be punished. It did not need the
able argument of Justice Lawrence, of the
supreme court, to convince intelligent and
unprejudiced men that arbitrary arrests in
the northern states were a revolving tyranny,
and did more to endanger the country than
to promote its safety. The men who were
busy in making them should be punished
To permit them to go unpunisned is to sus
tain the crimes against law and justice OF
which they were guilty and incite to their
repetition. +H'
Judge Lawrence is a republican, and it is
not strange that he should apologize for Mr.
Lincoln's connection with arbitrary arrests
The clearness and simplicity of the argu'
| ment of the Judge in condemnation of the
system will be very likely to outweigh his
apology for the president who authorized
| the commission of such crimes. The eoun
| try may not see this clearly now, but the
| matter will become clearer every year. The
longer the writing of Mr.. Lincoh's epitapf
shall be deferred, the less fattering will i

At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the

luton was adopted:
"Resolred, That the executive committee be
directed to prepare circular address to the people
of the state giving notice that application for ad
mission to the Orphan Asylum win be received
by John NJ. Snyder secretary of the board, at
Springfield, and the secretary be instructed to

ing attention thereto"
In compliance with above resolution !

children, and have the honor to most respect
fully request you to publish same, and give
it such prominence, editorially, as you may
deem proper. The object is to call the at
tention of the people to the opening of the
home, and ascertain as near as may be, how
many children there are in the state who
will properly come under the provisions Of
the law creating the institution. BIZ -
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,

For the Girls-How to Get a Husband.

For the Girls-How to Get Husband.
From an excellent communication pub
Eshed in Columbus, Missy paper, We copy
the following "expressiy:for the girls"
Being old, and therefore allowed license
for teasing the girls on matrimonial subjects,
consult them about their future prospects
often, and find that the opinion obtains, with
them, that the young men were never so slow
in proposing as in these days; which, we
must admit, gives them good, not to say,
al-powerful reason for not taking husband.
Now, young ladies, the whole secret with
nine-tenths of you. of not being able to get
off your parents hands, is simply this; you
don't know how to work. You can't keep
house.
You can't make pair of breaches. You
can't tell, for the life of yon, the difference
between bran and shorts or which cow gives
buttermIk. The young men generally came
out of the war with the skin of their teeth"
| with no fortune, j might say, but their ward
| robes of gray and their canteens, and to
| marry with them now, rest assured, relates
| more to making a living with the assistance
| of loving industrious helpmate, than indul-
cling in opera music, moonshine and poetry.
| Do you know what they say of one of your
butterfly young ladies who has held them in
the parloT engaged by the hour listening to
| elegant nothings?" Nineteen times out OF
twenty, it is this-"Well, she is all right for
an evening entertainment, but she will not
make goodwill"
\ There is no possible objection TO the ac-
! complishments of music, painting and the
like, as such, but the idea is to set these
parlor amusements aside for the period when
the stern duties of married life call for your
/ practical knowledge. Show the young man
that you canado your part of double bust
ness that you can cook meals vietuals or
| pinch; that You can sweep and dust, and
darn old stockings, and save apenny toward
an accumulated pound that you willvnot be
dead expense to him throughlife. Believe
me, young friends, as many true, heroic
womanly hearts beat over household duties
as futter beneath-the soft light of parlol
chandelier. Your kiss is just as sweet, YOU
smiles just as bright, your heart as happy
and tender, after days exertion in sphere
worthy of womanhood, as in placesrof dissi
patton, frippery and silly amusement, Have
an ambition to do your part in life cultivate
industrial habits, and let the .parlor accom-.
plishments 60 with the higher accomplish
ments l have roughly enumerated. 1t is as
tonishing how soon domestic young lady
1 is found out and appreciated. It's because

rule. 5 'as afI

The Illinois secretary OF state gives as q
reason for-the unusual delay IN the pubiica-

great number of private acts that were pass
ed by the legislature. The private laws alone
win make three volumes OF 900 pages each
while the public laws-those enacted for the
good Of the whole state-wiH make only one
thin volume. Illinois certainly never before
had . iegislsture which ground 80 many pri-
