In d late number of the Contempo-
rary Review, Herbert Spencer comhats
the idea that inebriety is on the in
crease. He describes the time when
men took drugs to increase their desire
for wine when glasses were so shaped
that they had to be held until emptied !;
when d man was reckoned as q "two-
bottle man, a I three-bottle man. ETC.,
aud when, Mr.. Spencer might have
added. one of the first Scottish mobiles
employed q domestic whose sole duty
it was to sit under the table and loosen
the neckcloths DE the guests as they
fell from their chairs, ia order that
they might not suffocate in their drunk
en- Sleep Intoxication used to be a
mark of honor. 1t is now a disgrace.
Education has driven the evil from one
class fter another. TIL noWexelusiye-
liz confined to the lowest. As Mr. Spen-
Ger says, the remedy for il in England
ii not d Maine law. hut the introduce
ton of tie education that has banned it
elsewhere.

SCOTLAND AND HER POPULATION
The official census of Scotland for the
year 1871 has been published, from
which it appears that this division of
Great Britain has a population of $780,
O18 souls, being an increase of about
100000 since the censustOf 1861. Up to
1890 the people of Scotland consisted of
three distinct and well-defined races,
to-wit The Anglo-SaxOns, inhabiting
the Lowlands the pure Celts, dwelling
i'm the Highlands, and the NOrsemen,
living in the fishing villages along the
northern and eastern coasts and i'll the
Orkncys and Shetland. Since 1920,
however, there has been an extensive
immigration from Ireland into Scot
land, and in many towns persons of
the Irish-Celtie rae compose from ten
to thirty per cent of the population.
During the ten years ending in 1871,
there was born in Scotland, 1,120,S24
children, of whom 575,117 were males,
and 545, T07 were females, giving 1854
males for every 100 female births. In
| consequence of emigration or from 9TH
er causes the proportion of sexes at pres
enteNistingin the population of Scotland
is 1896 females for every 100 males. In
regard to education, it is stated that in
| 1871, out of 6299,235 children, between
five and thirteen years old. 4944,86O, or
1864 per cent, were attending school,
leaving 134,375 growing up in total ig-
norance. In regard to the dwelling
places of the population, it appears that
nearly one-third of the people of Scot
land live in houses of II room, while
more than two-thirds live in houses of
two or under, and as many as So per
cent live in houses of four or under.
Scotland, including lakes and rivers,
has an area of about TO- 1916, 1879 acres, or
3O,463 square miles. of which only4 49,
$40 acres were under cultivation in 1870.

0neOf the eandidates-Mr. Estilette-
on the Regular Opelousos- Family Ticket,
admitted at Grand Coteat, last week,
that the Family preferred to have Mr..
Riard elected instead of Mn. Anderson.
Every white vote cast for Mr. Moore,
the Family candidate, increases the
chances Of Riard's election. And that's
the way the Family intend it. We
are informed that the Family urged
Riard to be q candidate.

To the Voters Of the Third
Congressional District of
Louisiana. II :


The following il brief statement of
the facts relating to the nomination of
the Hon. Ebert CAN'T, as candidate
for Congress upon the Fusion ticket
During the session of the Liberal
State Convention and on Saturday, Au-
gust 10th, the Liberal delegates from
the parishes composing the Third Con-
gressional District, assembled by pre-
vious notice, in the Gentlemen's ParlOr
of the St. Charles Hotel, and having
organized, by electing Hon. G. w. Mon
day, of East Feliciana, as President,
and j. H. Levy Esq, of Iberia, Secre-
tary, the Hon. Ebert CAN'T was then
and there unanimously nominated, and
official notice of such nomination was
duly published ON the following day.
On the of September the Demo-
cratic and Liberal conference commit
tees, by joint action, substituted for
Mr.. CAN'T the Hon. VIM. MOuton, of
Lafayette, as candidate for Congress
for the Third District, that district
being always conceded to the Liberal
party in the distribution of candidates.
On the Gath of the same month Mr..
MOutOn formally withdrew in favor of
Mr.. CAN'T.
This letter was received September
28th, and Mr.. MoutOn's resignation was
accepted. At q meeting of the Liberal
committee, in the evening Of that day,
the Hon. Ebert Can't was reinstated,
and On the following Tuesday, October
1, the nomination was unanimously rat
fled by the Executive Committee of the
Democratic party, as will be seen by
the annexed correspondence

The TRoOPs.-We We're surprised on
Sunday morning to hear a rumor on
the streets that fifty soldiers and their
commanding officers had arrived at
Washington. We considered it o
canard, but were rather rudely awak-
ened to the sense Of tho truth Monday
morning by seeing the white tents of
the troops dotting thesquare in the rear
of the Office of the Democratic
candidate for the Senate, Mr.. j.
ne. Moore. Words could not ex-
press the establishment of our peaceful
community at the sight of this war
Like arraE Men rubbed their eyes as
if awakening from some dream, and
the question passed from mouth to
mouth, Z rko sent for them n Who
sent for them, say zee There is but
one answer that III heard ON ali sides,
hut from whom the answer originated
we know not. 1T is this, viz a petit
ton IL gaid To have been received at
Headquarters signed by fifty of the
most influential citizens land before
the war the wealthiest) Of our parish,
asking that military aid be sent to SCI
enre d fair election. Who are those
fifty iRHuentiol cit51eas? We are sorry
we cannot publish their names. Sorry
indeed TINT the Parish Of st. Landry
should not know before the election
who those are that have to call in mill
tary assistance to aid them III their de-
signs. Our parish has never been in
d more peaceful condition, and the
cry ii heard on every side We will
have h fair election, unstained BIZ riot

say that onr civil authTities would call

and be heartily supported, should mid

quainted with the law on the subject,

the officer iii charge Of the detachment

have done this, for the simple reason
TINT they have 40 parish ticket IN the

in the parish have attempted to fnt1n-

The Congress of Peru has deereed the
abolition of the death penalty, and if
teen years imprisonment is to be the
maximum of al punishment in that re-
public. TN Columbia the maximum
ton, is ten years, and an article In the
code provides that d convict shall hare
the third pitrt of his sentence taken off
If he shows signs OF repentance, which,
ut course, ia not very difficult for aeon
yi0s To DO. But the Legislature of Col
nnfbia has still further reduced the
maximum penalty lN deereeing that all
pssaishnsnts enumerated iii the penal
laws shall be diminished to OGe-third.
SO that for the most horid arson, or
