long list Of political, c'mmsrsiaI, anil So
eial scan ials has attracted the attention OF the
world to the dsmoraizcd oonditisu OF this coun.
trY during tho past fsw years. Every respect
able American has been ashamed Of the wide
spread corruption aud open jobbery that dis
grAced the National, State and Municipal Gov
ernmsnts. of tho cunning rascslity that psrva-
dsd our commercial centres. All this was bad
snsugh, but it dses seem burning shame that
the United States could not even go out in com
pauy, so to speak, without taking thsir dirty
linen with them to air before the assembled ma
tioRs. Before a single case OF American goods
was unpacked at VIaana, American jobbory
was exposed, and carried of the first, an prob

Striking at the Evil,

This good work gOss marching on. Nearly
every Legislature in the Union have, within
the past ysAr or two, passed mere stringent
laws to regulate the traffic in iqusr. The
local Option bill has passed both
Houses OF the New York Legislature, aud will
Ss signed by tue Governor. BY this low vote
- 70 be taken in all the towns and cities Of the
State a. the next general elseIinn Ell The ones
ton whether licenses to sell liquor shall be
granted or refused-a majority OF vs,cs to decide
ths question.
The press, both in Europe aud America, show
PsmarkablO progress in giving attention to the
discussion Of the evils arising from drunken
n9GI, and from every quarter facts and figures
are produced that can not be refutod. One Of
,hs New Orleans papers drops its partisan
discussion long enough to assert that "the
Louisiana Stale Lottery, and the drinking deus.
d. mrS To dSsIorY the energy and business
spirit Of the people than all the carpet -baggers
NJ the South could, II concentrated into one
State. Tho lottery receives frsm 81, 900 to
$40, 900 per day, from the poorer classes, to
whom il returns absolutely nothing"
There ia more invested in saloons and the
production of whisky, than IN any ether in
dns.ry outside of planting, AMI with thS excep-
ion Of rice growing, no other business has
increased in Louisiana in twelve years. In
fnur years the production Of distiiieriss has
piscn from 1000 barrels per snuum to 65,OOO.
Enrmous az this production is, il is not sufi-
rieHt Ia supply even the Parish Of Orleans
which consumed last year rs, 600 barrels Of
Nhisky, or over one-third OF barrel for every
man, woman aud child in the parish. Is it nc
u little surprising that they get alsuK so we'll as
they do with this existing State Of affairs ?
Does II not call for more stringent Legislation,

courage 10 speak their sentiments aud assist in
