Bsg Judge Chase has dismissed the
appeal in the McArdle case for want OF
jurisdiction Some twelve months ago,
when the DAY Book urged reconstruc-
ton on the people of Virginia, the Bour-
bou press wanted us to wait until this
case was decided, which they informed US
would result in ruling the reconstruction
laws unconstitutional, and thus we
should get rid of them. Like all Bour-
bon promises, this turns out to be a
dead sea fruit Will the people trust
the Bourbon press any longer?

A Hint For Ladies.

All ladies. beware when YOU hand
the intoxicating drink to man-you
know not what you are doing | would
not for this world hand glass of wine,
and say, drink it, for my sake" No,
never YOU know not what evil you are
doing, when you ask young man to
take glass Of wine. He will take 1t,
and say. there can surely be no harm
in drinking this ONE glass of wine, if |
don't drink anymore" but will he stop
at this one glass of wine! No; he
will take another and yet another, and
10 where does he stop? Why at a
drunkard's grave; and you, woman,
the whole cause of it, by asking him to
drink one glass of the fiery poison.
| heard gentleman remark the
other day, ifyou want to find out who
the drunkards are, get up Good TEN
pars' society and you would soon lind
out. We have tried, and to our sor-
row for we find the ladies, as well as
gentlemen like their morning dram and
mincc pies. | would rather never see
a mince pie, than to think had been
the cause Of one person becoming
drunkard, and having his family com
ing to poverty and want, and hearing
his children cry for bread, and their
mother having none to give them; and
their father off at some grog shop,
spending the money his wife ought to
have-spending it for whisky. ] asked
lady frind of NINE the other day, if
she would join the Good Templars.-
She told me she had no objections, only
she could not do without her brandy
dips and mince pies. 0 my friend, if
YOU have brothers, or any one you hold
dear to you, do away with the fiery
beverage, and join the Good Templars,
and exert your influence in the cause;
and l will assure you it is good
cause, and if you will join, YOU will
never regret it. And so, my friend,
do away with your brandy dips and
mince pies. From one who takes a
deep interest in your future welfare.
