\ WORD To MOTHERS. "Dear
mother said ii delicate little girl. Il
have broken my china vase" "Well.
you are Il naughty. careless. trouble
some little thing, always in some mis-
chief; go up stairs. and STAY i'm the
closet till send for YOU" And this
WAS Il Christian mothers answer to the
fearful little ulprit, who had struggled
with and conquered the temptation tu
tell falsehood to serene her fault
with disappointed, disheartened look
the sweet child obeyed: and at that
moment WAS crushed in her little heart
the sweet flower of truth perhaps never
again III after Years to revive to life.
o, what were the loss of ii thousand
vases IN comparison 'Tis true, an an
gel might shrink from the responsible
ties of mother. 1t needs I'm angels
powers. The watch must not for an in
slant be relaxed; the scales of Justice
must always he nicely balanced the
hasty word that the overtasked spirit
sends to the lip must die there ere it is
uttered. The timid and sensitive child
must have word of encoura cement in
season: the forward and presuminr
checked with gentle tirmness there
must he no deception, no trickery for
the Keen eye of childhood to detect /:
ana all when the exhausted frame sinks
with ceaseless vigils, perhaps. and the
thousand petty Interruptions and un-
looked for annOyances of every hour
almost set at defiance any attempt at
system. Still must that mother wear
an unruffied brow, lest the smiling
cherub on her knee catch the angry
trown. Still must she rule her own
spirit, lest the boy, so apparently en-
crossed with his toys, repeat the next
moment the impatient word his ear has
caught. For all these duties faithfully
and conscientiously performed, Il moth
ers reward is in secret and silence.
Even he, on whose earthly breast she
leans, Is too often unmindful of the
nolseless struggle till, too late, alas he
learns to value the delicate hand that
mas Kept In unceasing flow the thousand
springs of his domestic happiness.

at tlIlS particular .juucture were so in
tently engaged III considering whether
the candle actually would bore hole

forgot TO eNtinguish it. As there was

he dropped the tallow into the right

The Liquor Law.

The public seems to be considerably interest
ed respecting the status of the liquor law, and
as there appears to be various opinions respect
ing the matter, trust you will give me a little
space to examine the provisions of the law and
show that the assumption that the law is re-
pealed is entirely groundless
The whole thing resolves itself into the ques
ton. was the % section of chapter 27 of the Re-
vised Statutes repealed by section 2 of chapter
62 of the acts of 1872? If not then it did not
need to be revived by the act of 1873 (ch. 1907
which repealed sections and 3 of the act of
1872.
That it was not SO repealed is apparent by
careful investigation of the acts in question
The reasons for revving section % and not re-
viving section % of chapter q of the Revised
Statutes, are also apparent, and do not come un-
der the rule untuS e1pressio, alteruns erc,Isit.
Section of the amending act of 1872 simply
added cider and wine to the liquor prohibited in
said section %, and then repeated the section
as amended. But this repetition is of no force
whatever. But section 3, instead of adding
anything. struck out an important provision, to
wit, "Wine made from fruit grown in this
state" 1t was necessary, therefore, when this
amendment by section was repealed, to revive
the original section 25; or, at least, it was
deemed expedient by the legislature SO to do,
else the section would lot exist in its original
FORM Hence the reason for reviving that Sec
tion. But no such reason existed for reviving
section o. for nothing had been stricken from
it, but only s'cider and wine" added Hence
repeating the amendment simply had the effect
to strike out again "cider and wine,'' and leave
that section as it originally stood. Such are
undoubtedly the reasons for reyiving section %,
and not reviving section %.
The fact that section % was not repealed by
lawyer, or will be upon close examination, when
he considers the well established rule in such
cases, that only provisions of statute, aDso-
lutely inconsistent with those of another sta
tute, subsequently enacted, are ordinarily re-
garded as repealed; but statutes cannot be
repealed by implication, if the implication does
not follow from the language used" AZ Me.
$40.
No such implication follows in this case, nor
are the provisions of the 22d section of R. S.
inconsistent with the Cd s. >ction of the amend
ing act of 1872, the latter only adding cider
and wine" to the former; and when these
were struck out by the act Of 1873, the original
section (22) stood as if it had never been alter
ed; and no revival of it was necessary, as was
the case in regard to section %. Hence, we re-
spectfully submit that this rumor that the bot
tom had suddenly, as if by magic, dropped out
of the liquor law, is entirely without founda-
ton. Yours, respectfully, A. M.

Current Notes.

The Brooklyn Argus celebrates the ami
versary OF its establishment by reviewing
what it calls "the public acts of Brooklyn's
banditti for single year." By banditti the
city authorities are meant, and the review is
not a pleasant one.
The Boston Adoertiser thinks that public
opinion in Maine would justify Gov. Dingley
in calling an extra session of the legislature
to enact liquor law if it turns out that
there is none.
There is very interesting and lively little
row in progress in Lawrence; the parties be-
ing the native-born Democrats on the one
hand and the Irish-born Democrats on the
other. The former control the board of al
dermen; the latter, the common council.
There has been an unpIeasantness for year
past, and now the younger Irsh-Americans
have formed club.
Senator Clayton appears among the signers
of the cali for the Chattanooga reconstruc-
ton convention. Too bad; we hoped that
the Claytons and Moseses would be left out
To those who hesitate in uncertainty
whether the pen was really mightier than the
sword, we would commend the proclamation
Of Lieutenant Governor D. B. Penn of
Louisiana, calling for civil war throughout
the state. This Penn is s'mitier' than an
old cheese, and twice as rank. His proclama-
tion sounds like one of Nasby's, but Its pos
sibilities of realization makes the jest sorry
one. The measure of its disastrous conse-
quences will be the limits of its influence,
and if its alarum is heard here in Missouri,
it should teach us one lesson, and that is,
that the work of Republicanism is not done
and that the power OF Republcanism cannot
be laid aside. If any man puts any other
meaning than that on PENIS proclamation,
he is not a Republican.-St. Louis Globe.
The Portland daily press., 1874-09-19

SOME of our exchanges read our legislators
very serious lectures for ''playing fox and
geese" with the statutes, if any one knows
what that means. The cause of this lecture
is the report that the liquor laws were re-
pealed by blundering on the part of statute
thinkers. We think that the suspicion that
we have no law to prevent rumselling is not
well founded. The wonder is that there are
not more of such b]unders made in amending
the statutes, particularly the liquor laws,
which, instead of being submitted to the Ju-
dietary Committee for modification, have, in
our legislatures, been referred to joint spe-
cial committee having no special acquaint-
anee with the statutes and no experience in
revising or constituting the meaning of them.
A special committee is well enough for an in-
vestigation, but when legislature has two
committees which are made up from mem
bers supposed to be acquainted with the stat
utes and possessors of skill in drawing and
interpreting the same, it does seem that the
modification of such important statutes as
the liquor law should be committed to them.
Another special committee was appointed
last year on the land agency for the purpose
of taking steps to abolish the office. In course
of time the committee reported bill to dis
> continue the office and the same was enact
ed. 1t since turns out that the office of land
agent is established by the constitution of the
state. While we shall never attempt to COM
bat the prevalent idea that any man who nev-
Or tonk hand OF od;
much better than the unfortunate fellows
who have tried it, we insist that the Judic-
ary and Legal Affairs Committees of our leg
islatures are best qualified 20 amend or tinker
the statutes
