The Adair Law---Judge Green Decision

Once upon time, driver became an
cry at one of his oxen, and seizing his ak,
he killed him by q single blow. The
driver, looking at the dead animal. ex-
claimed, live and larn." Our Constitu-
tion is very much in the condition of the
OK. and some of our judges are antitypes
of the angry driver. 1t would be hard to
include Judge Green among the anti
types, as it would imply disposition on
his part TO destroy his own offspring. We
cannot, however, presume that because
he was member of the convention which
prepared the Constitution, his construc
tion of that instrument must prevail
when it disregards the obvious meaning
of it, and violates all rules of reason and
Interpretation.
The Constitution contains the following
clause:
mo license to traffic in Intoxicating
liquors shall hereafter be granted in this
State, but the General Assembly may, by
law, provide against evils resulting there
from"
In pursuance of this clause, the Legis-
lature enacted what is generally known
as the "Adair law" which provides that
every "person who shall be injured in
person or property or means of support,
by any intoxicated person, or in conse-
quence of the intoxication, habitual or
OIueIWloSJ Vi any pCISOl4I SnaIl
have right of action in his or her own
name, severally or jointly, against any
person or persons who shall, by selling or
giving intoxicating liquors, have caused
the intoxieation, in whole or in part, of
such person or persons"
The Judge says in regard to this law,
"that in so far as the first clause of the
amended section in the act of April, 1870,
confers a right of action upon the persons
named, against a person selling intoxica-
ting liquors, which cause intoxication
such sale having been made in the usual
and lawful course of trade, or given for
any purpose not forbidden by law, is an
assumption of authority not conferred by
the Constitution; that it is attempted to
be asserted in @ manner in derogation of
the rights of person and property, and
that it conflicts with sections l. l9 and 20
of the Bill of Rights, and is therefore
void"
The proposition when rendered into
plain English, is this. The Legislature
cannot provide that man shall be re-
sponsible for the consequences which may
result from his selling or giving away in
toXicatiRg liquors, unless such selling or
giving away is forbidden by law The |
clause of the Constitution is general in !
its terms, and confers authority without |
any limitation, except that mo license |
shall hereafter be granted" The discre- |

evils resulting" from the traffic in intox- |

My Mothers Spinning Wheel.
BY ]. B. RonERrs.

How often, in my waking dreams,
Up the old garret steps l climb,
Where struggling beams of light reveal
A relic OF the olden time.
A relic of the olden time,
Which dust and cobwebs half conceal,
As useless lumber slowed away
My mothers little spinning wheel.
In the old garret now it stands,
Its busy hum is heard no more;
The distaR on the dusty floor;
For long ago were laid away,
In the cold chambers OF the dead,
The feet that turned the busy wheel
The hands that deity drew the thread!
Day after day, with patient toll,
At the same wheel she sat and spun,
And drew the thread with deXtrOus hand,
Unit the woof and warp were done.
And sometimes in my pensive moods,
The tears adQWn my cheeks would steal,
AS the soft music of her voice,
Blent with the whirring of the wheel.
How often, in my childhood hours,
listened TO those soothing lays!
Not dulcet sounds of harp and lutte,
Seemed half so sweet in after days.
My mother! ah, that sacred name,
What memories DER my spirit steal!
Methinks see her, as of yore,
Sitting and singing at her wheel.
Just as of yore see her now
The wheel, the distaff and the chair;
The sunbeams playing round her head,
And nesting in her silver hair;
Oh, vain illusfoni Well know
The sands have from her hour glass run;
The weary wheels of life have stopped.
And all her work on earth is dOnei
The soothing whir of that old wheel
No more shall DER my spirit come;
Perhaps my feet no more will cross
The threshold of my early home;
Yet oft my pensive thoughts will turn
From present scenes away, and steal
Up the old garret stairs, where stands
My mothers little spinning wheel.
The pleasing dreams of other years,
Have like the mists of morning flown
My form is bowed with toll and care,
And have old and weary grown.
And toward the grave, from day to day,
My steps decline, and just before
Runs the dark river that divides
Our land from that mysterious shore.
Ny feet are wounded by the thorns
That are in my pathway StreWn;
And oh, how many tear dimmed page
Is from the book of memory torn
But not while life and reason last,
Can forget, or cease to feel
Emotions that my bosom swell,
AT sight of this old spinning wheel.

Demand for Iron Ore.

The Iron Mountain company at the
first of the present year advanced the
price of iron mountain ore from $5 40
per ton, which had ruled during 1872 to
$40 yer ton for 1873, and as this was OBJ
iectionable to the iron manufacturing in
terests of Pittsburg and other points,
meeting was held by the leading repre-
sentatives and committee appointed to
visit st. Louis to see if reduction could
not be obtained. The committe was un-
successful and departed, but we under
stand left orders for ore at the advanced
tariff, and the Pittsburg and Wheeling
manufacturers have since continued to
send in orders, which would imply that
if not satisfied they would at least accept
the situation The Iron Mountain COM
pany will this year produce at approxi-
nation about three hundred thousand
tons, and every ton of the probable pro-
duct has been contracted for at the adj
vanced price named; and the demand is
SO. great as to have obliged tho company
to refuse orders to date of one hundred
thousand tons. One firm is said to have
applied for fifty thousand tons, but too
late and was fain to be content with ten
thousand A similar committee also
visited the Lake Superior iron regions,
but inferrentially with no better sue

Threads of Song.

From its nest bird went lightly soaring,
Vanishing along
Like spirit, from full heart pouring
Its sweet tide of song.
Hill and dale with radiance were shining;
Peace, unclouded, rested over all;
Light and fragrance every where were twining
Held forever in harm OniOuS thrau
By thread of Songl
Through the golden arches of the morning,
Far beyond our sight,
Earthly summons or our guidance ScOrning,
Still it holds its flight;
Into all our days new brightness weaving,
Sending gladneSS into every heart;
From celestial ones its skill receiving,
ALI its matehless and melodious art,
All its wealth of song!
the forests go the minne-sipgerS,
Weaving melodies
That some truant breeze will surely bring us
Other days than these;
EchoS lingering when the summers over,
In our hearts new melodies awake;
And though we may miss the tuneful rover,
Fen his absence from not break
These sweet threads of song!

Treatment of Typhoid Fever.

IF the body can be sustained until the
fever has gone its course, health will re-
suit. Milk, of all things, seems best
adapted for this purpose; for it is digesti-
BILE, is relished by fever patients, contains
all the requisite material for the nourish-
system especially which in fever is
always greatly affected Fnrthermore.
in fever there is great thirst, and patients
ardently long for that will cool the
parched mouth Thus, by interdicting
the use of water IN toto throughout the
fever, nourishment can always be given
in the shape of cold new milk. Cold
beef-tea is by no means to be dispised;
but it is much less relished, and not un-
frequently loathed when the fever is in
tense. while milk is then taken with much
gusto.

Numbering Their Own Offspring.

If the Copperhead editors who are be-
daubing the Credit Mobilier committee
and their report in favor of expelling
Messrs. Anes and Brooks from the House,
would remember that she committee was
appointed by Hon. s. S. Cox, Democrat
of the straightest sect, and that though
it was composed of a majority of Demo
Gratis, its report was unanimous, we think
for very decency's S sake they would spare
their abuse of it, and not stultify them
selves by holding the Republican party
alone responsible for its action. Such
uncompromising Democrats as Niblack,
of Indiana, and Merrick, of Maryland,
are not the men to favor Republicans or
discriminate against members of their
own party. OF their report we have
nothing more to be free from party
prejudice, and to aim to do justice to all
who were implicateds@In assailing it so
Indignantly Democrats are but fouling
their own nest, or, if they like the figure
better, numbering their own Offspring
