The Gambling Mania.

The insidious crime of gambling is
spreading itself, like blight,
throughout nearly all classes of socie-
ty with alarming rapidity. 1t is not
to be wondered at that the vice has
become so common in view of its
strong hold in high places. Rumor
told us, two or three days since, that
an ex-Congressman had won $40, 600
from a Congressman elect. Spacious
and elegant saloons for gambling have
been fitted up in Washington, where
in the law makers of the country may
enjoy their hours of recreation. The
descent made last week on the lottery
and policy dealers of this city involv-
ed some persons holding high posi-
tons in society. The more recent
raid on professional gambling
house on Broadway resulted in the
capture of recent candidate for AL
derman, besides many others of good
standing in the public. estimation,
The vice is not only popular but

fashionable; and fashionable sins are
of all others the most difficult to
remedy. But gambling proper, with
cards or dice, is only one form of this
dangerous moral disease. The prin-
ciple of gambling has come to be as
sociated with almost everything in
which the public are expected to take
an interest. An ocean yacht race is
very well and very innocent in itself,
but the fact that $4,000 depends up
on it, renders it simply a piece of at
tractive gambling. Horse-racing has
a universal popularity, but large
share of its zest is due to the gam
bling and betting always attached
to it. Not even billiard
match or a game at base ball can be
played now days without bait of
thousand dollars or so to spur on the
contestants; and so these games be-
come an excuse for pure and simple
gambling. The public taste thus be-
comes morbid and vitiated. The de-
sire to gain by gambling grows by the
first indulgence, and becomes ruinous
to all mental and moral discipline. It
causes an impotence of all wholesome
industry, and is subversive of the best
qualities and the highest aspirations.
Yet this gigantic evil is spreading
surely. and if unchecked and unre-
strained by public opinion, the state
of our national morality will soon be-
come terrible to contemplate.-The

Fred. Douglass Speech at Cincinnati.
CINCINNATI, January IA, 1867.

OINClNNATl, January IA. 1901.
Editors Journal:
On Saturday night last, at Mozart
Hall, listened to the somewhat re
nowned Fred. Douglass for over two
hours. He is bright mulatto, about
fifty years of age, six feet high, weighs
over 200 pounds, superabundance of
hair, and quite gray; moustache
black, eyes yellow OF hazel color, com
pressed lips, high cheek bones, and
there is fxedness and determination
In his countenance that is quite
marked, and, when animated in speak.
ing, there seemed to be playing around
his mouth somewhat contemptuous
smile while speaking of the short
eomings of some of our great men
His manner was easy and dignifed.
His language was fluent and we'll
chosen. His views were put forth in
a clear and distinct tone of voice, and
bis reasons for his opinions seemed,
in the main, good. His topic
Dangers to the Republic.
will try to give you a synopsis of
the leading points of his speech: LIST.
We would and could not attain to
greatness until we made this genu-
Inc instead of a sham Republic.
Every man must be placed upon equal
footing, Every man, white and black,
must know and feel that this Govern
ment is resting, in part, upon has
shoulders. He respected the Consti-
tuition of the United States and its
trainers; but it was not a Divine in
strument; it was framed by men like
ourselves, that shaped matters as at
that time accorded with their best
Judgment, and best suited at that
time to the demands of the country.
If changes are now necessary, changes
that would be conclusive to the we'll
being of the Republic, make them.
He was glad the South had spurned
the Constitutional Amendment; glad
no better feelings existed between the
North and South; glad Massachu-
sets man, with his capital, could not
go and settle in South Carolina, and
he hoped the South would continue
to hold out for better things. She
may get them.
He regretted that half of the fruits
and benefits of the war lad been lost
by hardness and bad legislation upon
the part of our Government, in not
Furnishing traitors, and holding them
in that contempt they deserved, and
in not protecting Union men as they
should have been. On the contrary
traitors have cruelty murdered Union

Goods at Value.

We have the most complete stock
of Staple and Fancy Dry Goods, suit
ed to the season, which we will sell off
cheap until March. We make no
ridiculous pretensions by advertising
articles cheap, and when customers
call for them " are just out" or by
pretending to sell at cost (cost to cas-
toners, of course). Many goods are
high enough at Eastern cost

in fine spirits and with the intention Of
making it even better, and we doubt not
they will do it. The January number will
open with fresh and new good things by
the best authors in American literature.

Our readers will not need to be told how
much space we have given up to the laws,
passed by the late session of the legisla-
ture. Few of these acts win be of inter-
est to most Of our readers, but some of
them are of interest and Of Importance,
especially those which make radical
changes from any former system. The
Insolvent law, which is the first number,
is an important change in the attachment
laws of the State, and should be under
stood. The right of towns to establish
central schools is another new feature in
the education laws. Themilitia laws have
been tinkered some, as usual every year.
In times Of peace, however, the people of
Vermont care very little about the militia
ry laws, if not expensive, however much
may be said in favor of an efficient mi
litia." Town listers or any one who ever
expects to be lister, should look in the
new military acts to see what is expected
Of them. The law TO encourage manufac-
turing will also be found. 1t will be seen
that this matter is left mainly TO the &C.
ton of the towns or cities to encourage
manufacturing by exemption from taxa
ton, if they shall SO elect in town meet
ings. Fish breeding receives still further
protection, and there is evidently an in
creasing interest on this subject in the
State. The State Tax this year is fifty
cents on the dollar, which is good as far as
it goes, being five cents less than last year.
Those who become confused as TO whether
any particular measure was adopted by
the legislature, can settle the question by
consulting these acts, and also thereby as
certain exactly what the legislature did
Although at some Inconvenience, we have
preferred to give all the acts designated
for publication, in one number, as they
will thereby be in more convenient form
for use, till they shall appear in pamphle
edition.
