TIE CIDER QUESTION.

Hon. W. II. Vinton Of Gray, in a note to
the Portland Press IN response to a sugges-
ton that the matter had been left in doubt,
thus explains the action Of the recent Legis-
lature Gu the cider question -
THE Legislature repealed all the laws Of
last year relating to the sale of cider, and re-
stored the law as it formerly was on that sub
iect. The restored law is Section % of Chap
ter % Of the revised statutes, and 10 in these
words:
SEC. %. The provisions of this chapter shall no:
extend to the manufacture and sale OF unadulterat.
ed cider in any case, to the of wine
made from fruit grow in this State, to the sale
by agents appointed under the provisions of this
cnapter of pure wine for sacramental and mechan.
zeal uses.
Such is the Law ofthe manufacture and sale
of cider, and it is all the law there is upon
this subject
To be sure there is Law which provides
tina. if any person makes his house, shop or
place nuisance by the sale therein of intox-
ieating liquors for tipping purposes, such
nuisance may be ahated.
Now the cider law, like all law, is to be
proved by its practical working, and whether
it be wise or unwise remains yet to be seen
but submit that it is plain, misleading no
one and its provisions are not in ''doubt and
uncertainty"

The New York Worlds account of the in
augural ball gives this description of beauti-
iul decoration:
"Mrs. Senator Sprague contributed to the
decoration of the ball floral ornament re-
sembiing an immense wheel, which was placed
in position on the face of the gallery over the
Presidential entrance and directly facing the
dais at the other extremity of the hall. The
centre of the whole was mass of dark pur.
PIE vlolets; radiating from that were some
nine or ten spokes, composed of alternate
rows of white pinks and of carnations. The
rim of the wheel was broad band Of Gala
lilies, roses, camelias, orange flowers, azalias,
interspersed with dark, shining leaves and
tendTilled vines, which made an atmosphere
Of delicious fragrance around and beneath
them. The ornament was some five feet in
diameter, and was one of the most beautiful
specimens Of floral work ever seen iE the city.
1t appeared first at a recent dinner given by
Senator and Mrs. Sprague. The flowers are
said L? have cost Sl0O0''

WHAT THE PANIC HAS SHOWN.

There IL perhaps no subject on which
there is such ignorance as on political
economy. The laws OF trade and finance
arc discussed daily by thousands Of able
men yet it is astonishing how many
fallacics are current. Though il is an
old maxim that figures do not lie, the
deductions which have been drawn
from statistics even by many acute
rcasOncrs on these subjects, arc very far
from the truth. Facts and figures may
be distorted so rs to establish any de-
sired point, and in this complicated
science, perhaps 10 q greater extent than
in any other, is "a little learning It
dangerous thing"
Many of the abfcst financial writers
III the daily and weekly press of this
country have gradually come to con-
slider the present currency system as
the very acme Of the financial wisdom
1t has been claimed again and again
that the removal of the infiammabie
element, specie, from our currency had
rendered money panic impossible.
BY demonetizing the currency run
upon the banks had been made n thing
of the past.
1t was argued that since specie was
likely ut any time to be Withdrawn
from bank and boarded, causing sus
pension, If this were removed and &
paper legal tender substituted ther.
could then be no condition of affair
that could induce q crisis. Specie hat

that time could not destroy or circum
stances change-hcncc it was a dangcrou
! currency basis, because having certai
value itwould be seized and boarded i
/ times Of excitement. A legal tend,
The Ouachita telegraph. [volume] (Monroe, La.) 1865-1889, 1873-10-10

having no intrinsic worth, being a mere
Government obligation to pay at an In
definite time, would scarsely be with
drawn from bank and boarded when 80
many really valuable stocks and bonds
could be secured.
How effectually all these arguments
have been refuted by the experience of
the past few days. We have had q cur
rency panic as violent as any ON record
In specie times, and we have seen the
banks moro quickly drained of every
thing In the shape OF money than ever
was the case before. 1t did not even
require ga run" to close up nearly all
the banks in tho country.
The New York banks were not run
upon to any extent. The savings banks
and trust companies were beseigetl by
depositors, but only three or four of the
national banks were subjected to any
very large demand; yet suspension be-
came necessary. The closing up of the
New York banks induced a similar
measure at New Orleans and In tho
West, and to-day's dispatches state that
the boston banks have followed suit.
1t will be seen, therefore, that I'm nd
dition to the evils incidental to a cur
rency which Is not retieemable in specie,
subject as It is to violent fluctuations
that disturb commerce more or less:
inasmuch as valuestare still regulated.
despite all efforts to the contrary. by
the standard of gold and silver; We are
equally subject to locking up of cur
rency by the people, as we'll as by tho
rings and ciiques of Wall street. Nay,
more, suspension is shown to be more
easily compelled than under n speccie
system.-N. o. RicnysN9e.

HOW SHE TAKES THE TRAIN.
1From tho Peoria Rov,,xv

(From the Peoria Review.l
She comes down to the depot In an
express wagon three hours before train
time. She insists on sitting on her
trunk out Oh the platform to keep it
from being stolen. She picks up her
reticule, fan, parasol, lunch basket,
small pot with n house plant In 1t,
shawl, paper Of candy, bouquet (she
never travels without one, small tum-
bier and extra veil, and chases hysteri-
caify after every switch engine that
goes by, under the impression that 1t is
her train.
Her voice trembles AS she presents
herself Mt the restaurant and tries to
buy ticket, and she knocks with the
handle of her parasol ut tho door of the
old disused tool house, In vain hopes
that the baggage man will come out
and check her trunks. She asks every
body in the depot and on the platform
when her train will start, and where 1t
will stand, and, looking straight at the
great clock, asks: "What time is it
now?" She sees, with terror, tho bag
gage man shy her trunk into Il car
! where two men arc smoking, instead
of locking it up by itself in large,
| strong, brown car, with "Bad order,
| Shops" chalked on the side, which she
| has long ago determined to be tho bag
gage car, MS tho only safe one in sight.
Although tho first ut the depot, she is
the last to get her ticket, and once on
tho cars, sho sits to tho end OF her jour
ney in an agony of apprehension that
she has got OH the wrong train, and
will be landed at some strange station,
put in II close carriage, drugged, and
murdered, and to every last male pas
senger who walks down the ailsc she
stands up and presents her ticket, which
she invariably carries in her hand.
She finally recognizes her waiting
friends on the platform, leaves tho car
In a burst Of gratitude, and the train is
ten miles away before she remembers
that her reticule, fan, parasol, lunch
basket, verbena, shawl, candy, tumbler,
veil, and bouquet are on the scat where
She left them, or in the depot ut Peoria,
for tho life of her she can't tell which.
