as to this, If it is moral crime to sell, it
is moral crime to drink The law
should treat both alike. The moral of
Tense of selling consist in the injury done
to the drinker If the drinker, therefore.
is morally accountable. he is the princi
pal In this crime, and should so be held.
In every case where person is iujur-
ing himself, or is violating his obligations
to his family, by intemperance, there is
a case for placing him under restraint
and discipline. In every case where a
just claim has been created for damages
against seller, there was previously
case for the intervention of the State to
take the drinker under guardianship and
discipline. There should be public lne-
briate asylums for these cases; but the
system may be begun by using the luna
tic asylums. Upon the theory that these
persons are morally unaccountable, the
lunatic asylums are eminently proper
places. And it may be that these will be
sufficient. For this is remedial and
preventive system, and great results
may be expected from its direct effects,
and from its vastly wider moral inhu-
ence.
About the same application on the
part of family, or the same showing on
the part Of the public that is required to
bring persons of unsouDd mind before
Probate Court, and consign them to the
lunatic asylum, would be proper in the
case Of inebriates. The legal part is
plain and simple. Whatever may be
said as..to their irrespopsibility when
drinking, all know they can be brought
to their right mind by such treatment as
this. 1t will sober them, restore them
to soundness Of body and mind, will
place before their eyes the folly and cri-
minality of their course, and, what is
more, will hold over their heads the mo-
raj influence of return to the asylum in
case of relapse. This moral influence
and accountability is what the inebriate
never had. He repents at times, but be
knows that when be relapses he will only
have his own feelings to respond to.
1t may be presumed with confidence
that this will be effectual in preventing
and retaining all who have any respect.
able standing in society, and all who are
not so far gone that they are past al
sense of shame, and are ready to quarter
themselves on the asylum between then
debauches. For such as these an industri
al course can be provided. either in the
asylum or in the work house, which will
protect the public against imposition.
When we come to treat the intemper-
ate as the persons to be legally disci-
plined, whether as accountable or unac-
countable beings, we shall make some
Roadway in the reform of intemperance
So long as we are afraid to make this
| principle of justice the starting point OF
our cercive tempo lance legislation, we
shall only multiply laws without rea
progress, as we have done in the past.

A LOAN FROM THE DEAD.

A good many years ago the regiment
to which | then belonged was quartered
at Aldershott. After a long absence
from England, spent on a parching rock
in the middle of the Red Sea, bleak and
dreary Aldershott seemed very para
disc. 1t was delightfully."- near London,
too; leave was easily to be obtained, and
great part of my spare time, and more
than all my spare money, was spent by
me in the metropolis-spent, | am sorry
to say, in riotous living and much dis
order. Still, had it only been that, |
should, possibly, like many OF my
brother officers, at the cost Of much sub
sequent pain, and WEAKNESS, and pinch
ing, have passed through my cycle OF
dissipation, and settled down at last;

tions, had fatal prediction for games

ing between the northern and

is a decided obstruction TO the free
flow of modern commerce, and
the brains Of the best engineers
in the world are perpleXed with
the problem Of how to remove it.
No less than seventeen different
routes for ship canals to effect
this object have been suggested
within the past half century, and
the labors of surveyors are not yet
sufficiently near complete to settle
definitely the feasibility or the re-
verse of slack-water navigation
from ocean to ocean. Meanwhile,
railway enterprise is invoked to
transport ships from side to side
Of the Isthmian region, and a COM
pany in London is now soliciting
capital to build a railway through
Honduras to effect this object.
The plan has been elaborated, and
the estimates made, by James
Brunlees, an eminent civil engin-
eer, who proposes track made
up Of six parallel rails, and having
a gauge of twenty-five feet. The
cars to run Oh this colossal road
are to be large enough to carry
each ship weighing, laden, 1000
tons, and having a length of 200
feet. Each one will have 240
wheels, and will weigh, of itself,
700 tons. To get the ships from
the water into, or rather upon,the
cars, hydraulic lifts similar to
those used in craving docks will
be employed. From five to ten
locomotives will be required for
each loaded car; and, in order to
enable them to travel up>heavy

They are usually suffering from
softening of the brain themselves,
and are most egregiously taken in
over and over again. Here is what
DR.. SpurZheim says about the in
dications Of temperament:
"The Emphatic, or phlegmatic,
temperament is indicated by a
pale white skin, fair hair, round
ness OF form and repletiOn of cell
lular issue; the flesh is soft, the
vital actions are languid, the pulse
is feeble, and the whole frame in
dicates slowness and weakness in
the vegetatiye. affective and in
tellectual functions.
"The sanguine temperament is
proclaimed by a tolerable consist
ency of flesh, moderate plumpness
of parts, light or chestnut hair,
blue eyes, great activity of the ar
terial system, a strong, full and
frequent pulse, and an animated
cOuntenance. Persons thus con-
Stituted are easily affected by ex-
ternal expressions, land possess
greater energy than those Of the
former temperament.
'The bilious temperament is
characterized by black or dark
hair, yellowish or brown skin,
black eyes, moderately full but
firm muscles, and harshly express
ed forms. Those endowed with
this constitution have a strongly
marked and decided expression
Of cOuntenance they manifest
great general activity and func-
tiOnal energy.
"The external signs Of the ner-
vOus temperament are fine, thin
hair, often inclining to curl, deli
cate health, general emaciation
and smallness of the muscles, "a
pidity in the muscular actions,
vivacity in the sensations. The
nervous system of individuals 50

tremely, and they exhibit great
