Who Comm its the Crime

The Pre6yt erian,in an article
on tho plea that per sons are not
justly1iable topunishment for the
acts committed when intoxica-
ted, puts the case in the follow
ing clear and foreible style.
"Who does commit the drunk
ards crime! There is surely re-
sponsibility somewhere. We can
hardly consent to be shot down
and murdered on the side walks.
and nobody be accountable. If
the drunkard does not commit
the crime then the guilt travels
back to those who make the
drunkard. The sellers of strong
drink who put every temptation
before their fellow-men, knowing
that they are making brutes-
knowing the price of every drink
may be the price OF blood-these
men will by and-by be held re-
sponsible for the woes and sor-
rows, the riots and murders, the
widows and orphans which are
created by their horrible traffic.
If the doctrine that drunkards are
not responsible is. admitted in our
courts, then'let'rum-sellers take
warning that inquisition for blood
will come to their doors, and they
will have to face the consequences
Of their own selfish acts. This is
4 result which we could contem-
plate with satisfaction. The man
who makes his living by the ruin
Of his neighbors ought surely to
meet the consequences of his ac-
cursed business

A bay window connected with a
warm room. especially if facing
South or East, makes an excel
lent place for keeping plants in
winter. The main thing in keep
ing house plants in health is to
secure an even temperature, a
moist atmosphere, and freedom
from dust. Sprinkle the leaves
occasionally, and when water is
needed use it freely. If the
green-fiy, or aphis, appears, wash
with soap-suds frequently, and
occasionally with a little tobacco
water, or a decoction of quassia
chips. If the red-spider comes,
it shows the plants are in too dry
an atmosphere. Burn a little
sulphur under tie plants, the
fumes of which will kill the spi-
der, and afterward keep the stems
and leaves well molstened. DC
casionally, but not often, worms
appear in the pots. This can be
avoided in a great measure by
careful potting. A little weak
lime-wateris sometimes of benefit
in such cases, also five drops of
liquid ammonia to gallon of wa
ter, though, perhaps, the better.
way is to re-pot, removing the
earth carefully, so as not to in
jure the growth of the plant. ~

Apologies for Criminals.

The New York Observer says:
"Almost every murder trial, and
every verdict against the
murdurer, brings out protest
against the death-penalty, as un-
just, ferocious, revengeful, de-
moralizing, multiplying murders;
columns of rhetorical, humanity
and benevolene, wiser than
Gods, denouncing hanging as
itself a murder, exciting and
training a public sentiment
against it, degrading the officers
and executioners of the law as
quasi murderers. Just in proper
tion as these teaching are diffused,
and received for truth, the rene
dy is made of no avail; indeed,
is turned into mischief. These
druggists Of society first adulter-
ate the medicine, then reproach
and vilify the genuine article,
then cast it out, as of no efficacy,
and suggest and make upi,.some
quack receipt instead ;proving by
statistics of the prevalence of di-
sease just then and there where
the adulterated remedy had been
used for everything, the remedy
ITSELF only exasperated the evil.
Suppose they imported a ship
load of vaccine matter for inocu-
lation, aud it was nothing but a
preparation of vegetable pas, and
it having been freely circulated
and feely used, and the small
pox breaking out there upon,
they should charge the m crit of
the disease On DR.. Jenn er and
the inoculating process. Such is
the method of the constan tly reit-
Grated argument against thepenal
atty of death for the crime of
murder"

Plants in the House.

In regard to house plants, L
would remark that few plants
can endure the high temperature
and dry atmosphere of most Of
our living rooms. The tempera-
ture should not be allowed to go
above seventy in the daytime,
and not above forty-ive in the
night. As much air and light as
possible should be given, while
the leaves should be sprinkled
frequently, A spare room, or
parlor, or extra bedroom, is bet
ter for plants than a living room.

Plants in the house afford the
most pleasure in the winter seas
on when all is dreary without
but very much can be done to
make home cheerful all through
the summer, especially as the gar
den furnishes abundance of flow
ers very cheaply for floral dec
orations; and birthdays and fes-
tivals and company will come in
the summer as well as winter.
There are times. too, when the
garden cannot be visited by any
and very often there are mems
bers of the family who but sell
dom enjoy this privilege. l will
therefore make a few suggestions
that perhaps may be valuable to
some readers.

The third examples very simple,
the plant being trained on a cir
cular frame.
The Window Brackets are
very useful and pretty, as they
can be placed almost in any DO
sition, and being jointed can be
moved near the light, or toward
the interior OF the room as NAV
be desired. Each bracket is
designed for one pot, which it is
best to have of some tasteful
design. Some prefer to use the
common pot and cover it with an
ornamental pot cover. The Win
dow Garden is also a very neat
arrangement for the purpose. e s
Ferneries are always agreeable.

we are now enabled to offer,
f . with perfect certainty that
it will eradicate the disease, and with assur-
ance, founded on proof, that no harm can
arise from its use in any quantity.
That which protects from or prevents this
disorder must be Of immense service In the
communities where it prevails. Prerention
Is better than cure; for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks Of
this baleful distemper. This "CUREn expeis

ment Of the disease, II taken on the first
approach Of its premonitory symptoms. A
great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and GER
tain cure of Intermittents is, that it contains
no Quinine or mineral; consequently it pro-
duces no quinism or other Injurious effects
whatever upon the constitution. Those cured
by it are left as healthy as If they had never
had the disease.
Fever and Ague Is not alone the con.
sequence Of the miasmatic poison. A great

Toeshache, Aarsche, Catarrh, Ash.

"CUREn expels the poison from the blood,
and consequently cures them all alike. 1t is
an invaluable protection to immigrants and
persons travelling or temporarily residing in
the malarious districts. If taken OCCASION
ally or daily while exposed to the infection,
that will be excreted from the system, and
cannot accumulate IN sufficient quantity to
ripen into disease. Hence it is even more
valuable for protection than cure; and few
will ever suffer from Intermittents If they
avail themselves of the protection this rem
edy affords. i
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpid
ity Of the Liver, it is an excellent remedy,
stimulating the Liver into healthy activity,
and producing many truly remarkable cures,

A New Fruit Crate.

A new fruit crate has been invented at
Clifton, Fairfax county, for which the in
ventor and patentce claims many advan-
tages over the one in common use. We,
have seen the crate, and conclude upon the
whole that it is an Improvement. In the
first place the fruit can be examined, top,
bottom and sides without breaking Stat.
The crate can be made of light material,
and be sufficiently strong, as the pressure
only tends to keep the Stats the tighter in
stead of pushing them off. They are con-
venient to carry, and have a neat appear
anee. We are informed that they can be
made by any one in twenty minutes, and
cost about seven cents for half bushel and
twelve cents for bushel, in material. We
do not know what is asked for farm rights
or for the crates ready made, but we hope
they will be placed within the reach of oul
fruit-growers, that we may send our supe'
rior fruit to the New York market in crates
of our own device and manufacture, thu
whole presenting an appearance superior t
all other lots, and commanding price II

GENERAL FREMONT has been tried,
convicted and sentenced to five years i'm
prisonment in France on the charge Of
false representations in connection with the
Ell Paso railroad bonds. The singular
feature about it is that General Fremont
was not at the trial, had no hearing, and
not being in France, cannot well be impris-
oned under the findings of the court; nor
would he be surrendered unier any extra
dition treaty in existence. French justice
is even more queer than French politics.
