LAGER BEER ON SUNDAY.
Beer Sales OH sunday Allowable.

There was notice in the CHRONICLE q
VS.. the State, pending before the Supreme
Court at Nashville, in which the question
raised was whether the sale of lager beer
on Sunday was legal. The case was de
cided on Saturday, Judge Nicholson de-
livering the opinion of the Court. He
stated the question to be thus:
" Is lager beer spirituous liquor, with
in the meaning of sec. 1861 of the Code,
which enacts that mo licensed grocer or
other person in this State, shall ret3il spiT-
ituous liquors on Sunday. The punish
ment of this offense shall be fine and
imprisonment, az the discretion of the
Court"
After reviewing the authorities and stat
utes, the Court concludes as follows:
" 1t will be observed that the only change
made in the act of 1888, in transferring it
to the Code, was to make its violation q
more stringent misdemeanor. 1t was con-
trary to the genius of our Government that
criminal otfense, which involved the inn
prisonment of a citizen, should be created
merely by judicial construction. The stat
ute was leveled at distilled spirits and not
at .fern,ented liquors, and the Court would
be guilty of judicial legislation if il should
by construction so enlarge the meaning of
the words as to make a new criminal Of
Tense. AS anxious as the Court may be
to promote the object of the statute, we
can not do so by assuming legislative pow
ers'n

About A Smart Little Girl.

By the by, speaking of George MacDon-
aid reminds us of rather good story at the
expense of charming little girl, who one
day last week was invited to an entertain
ment where she was to meet this author
Wishing to appear familiar with the works
of the celebrated writer, she wrote friend
in the city that she had "been invited to
meet the great lecturer" and begged her
friend to send her his books, whatever
they might be. The FREUD surprising that
by lecturer she meant Professor Tyndall,
sent overall that learned mans works. Our
beautiful little impromptu bue-stocking
did her level best to cram for the occasion,
and read so much on light that her little
head grew dizzy. She mastered the titles,
however, and feeling well armed for the
encounter, attended the entertainment.
She had the honor of having Mr.. Mac
Donald presented to her, and on the first
favorable opportunity she opened on him !:
"Oh, Mr.. Macdonald, / am so delighted
to meet you. / have read your Beautiful
books.n
George Macdonald bowed gracefully.
Il do think your Fragments so lovely.n
George Macdonald stared like feather
less owl.
''But the most thrilling of all is the
Glaciers of the Alps"
The poor pen driver could not utter a
word. Indeed, he seemed to be catching
his breath as if he had received blow
below the belt.
And how brilliant you are on Light
and on Sound! DO, Mr.. Macdonald,
tell me how you produce such beautiful
things"
The Englishman came to the conclusion
that the little girl was chatiiing him, es-
pecially as some audible smiles in the inn
mediate neighborhood told him certain
people were being amused. So he cOlored
up to the hair, and fled the encounter in
such confusion that the company feared
he was suffering from relapse of his late
sickness. But we are happy in saying it
was only slight attack of cram infdntunl
ADacricanln1, and that he is now conva-
lescent.-.ScriJRer.

Anderson Hill, Esq.

In Il recent interview with Senator Brownlow,
the correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial
met with Anderson Hill, Of our city, and
speaks of him as follows:
While we were talking, white-headed old
man came hopping into the room, as spry as Il
cricket. He IS from Knoxville, and an appli-
cant for the position of Assistant Door-keeper,
or something of the sort.
THE old gentleman was one of jackson 5
could pass for 60, A few weeks ago he walked
from Knoxbille to Concord, a distance of II
miles in less than four hours. When 62 years
of age he walked from Knoxville to Nashville,
over 200 miles, in less than five days. In his
case there is comfort for lean men, for he lever
weighed moro than 1872 pounds.
" We branched off from politics to the coz
sderation of this old mans case.
" How do you manage to keep your health
and strength so longP l asked.
- Well he said, the Lord promises that
those who honor their parents shall hsye long
life l always honored mine, and never used
tobacco or whisky, either, that's the secret. D

COLD WEATHER.

We have heard some disposed to COM
plain little at our cold weather, but if
they could read our exchanges from the
North, and even from South of us, they
would find new cause for satisfaction with
our climate. Thus, on Tuesday, the 10th,
there were four inches of snow and cold
weather at Augusta, and on Wednesday
three inches of snow ut Fortress Monroe.
Further North the reports are of severe
winter weather. Navigation on the Hud-
son River is closing rapidly. The weather
at Albany is very cold, and there is much
ice in the river below the city, in some
places strong enough to bear the weight of
a man.
In Maine the Upper Kennebec is closed
by ice, and navigation above Bath is en-
tirely suspended. The Black River is also
closed. Yesterday morning the Their
mometer was twelve degrees below zero at

GreeleX'S Estate.

Mr.. Greeley did not leave his children
beggers. His property has been estimated
at 5000, 600, aud if it should not amount to
half that sum it will afford handsome
competence. He sunk large sum in the
late unfortunate campaign, which he was
i'll prepared to do, for he had buried great
deal in the Chappaqua folly. Greeley made
bad choice of country home. He
might have located as Bennett did, near
the city, where every dollar invested in
land is now worth five. Instead of doing
this he settled in a sterile tract which had
long been known as Poverty Hollow"
Here / e sunk fortune in warning against
nature. Last year he began ''model
farmhouse" which is now unfinished

The Old South Church.

Boston is in ferment over the proposed
dissertation of the Old South Church,
which, by the way, has been vigorously
protested against by the New York Nation
and other journals not printed within
sight of Bunker Hill Monument. The
question came up in the Massachusetts
Legislature recently, and awakened "A flow
Of eloquence that must have made the
typical Goldfish that hangs above the
Speakers desh wiggle with emotion. Mr..
Quincy, of Boston, opened the debate
with quotation from Holmes Old
Ironsides:"
Ay tear her tattered ensign down;
Long has il waved on high,
And many an eye has danced to see
That banner in the sky.
Beneath it rung the battle shout
And burst the lannon's roar,
The eagle of the ocean air
Shall sweep the clouds no more
The ring of which lines naturally inspir-
ed Mr.. Quincy to say of the Old South:
Oh better Lad her sacred spre
Crashed down amid the flame;
The fame where freedoms fire was lii,
Fire had preserved from shame.
Though rocking wall and blazing tower
Sunk in the burning tide
In unsmirched memory had remained
For BOston's honest pride.

Didn't Want to BIO a Girl.

Frankfort hy.r Z conan.
A few evenings since as one of our coun-

little ones to bed, she as usual caused them
to say their prayers. A little girl, five
years old, havingjust been disposed of with
the closing sentence of-dHd make me a

Johnnie three years old, came and knelt
by his mothers knee. After repeating,
