To PLANTEns.-We are requested by factors to call
the attention of planters to the Importance ofprop-
sry preparing their cotton before forwarding 1t to

main is largely deprecated thereby The pa ckases
should also be Of good weight, say from 400 to SEQ

advantage and the value of the article is frequently
reduced about 1c % 1b in consequence.

ENFORCING THE LIQUOR

The Fat Contributors Experience in

From the Cincinnati Times.

From the Cincinnati Times.
l visited good many places during the
day where liquor was formerly sold YVES
let into club-hOuses with latch-keys; led,
like lamb, along dark passage-ways and
admitted through mysterious doors, on
the delivery of pass word taken down
cellar, hOisted, submissively, into garrets,
and once lowered into a cistern, and
wherever l went, in good, sound, law
abiding, constitutional, old Boston, l
found prohibition enforced with a severity
and vigor that l hadn't deemed possible
My head aches whenever think of it.
They begin to enforce about o'clock
in the morning, as near as l can judge,
and keep it up steadily until 2 or o'clock
in the morning, when, of course, the
thing can take care of itself. Men work
so hard at it they grow red in the face /;
many of them who never gave much at
tentiOn to the temperance cause before.
A Boston nlan told me he never knew
there were so many drinking places in the
city until the law was introduced, and he
took it upon himself, in answer to prompt
ings he neither could understand nor re-
sist, to aid in enforcing it. He acknOwl-
edged that ne was nearly worn out, aud
couldn't hold out much longer unless the
law were repealed. The material they
provide for enforcing" is abominable,
though, as GA Ward used to remark,
that he always observed they kept worse
liquors at Temperate tavern than any
where else, so the quality of whisky de-
teriorates fearfully under prohibition pa
trOnage.
