The completion OF the great iron bridge
over the Missouri river at Bonneville,
enables this popular line to offer still bet"

Also, two daily trains between st. Louis
and points in Southern Kansas.
For the Texas trade, new and better
facilities are offered. The rates have
been greatly redaccd, and arrangements
have been made whereby through Pull

through the finest portion of Southwest

PROBATE COURT.
Temperance Ralders-COl. ShannOn's
Plea-Majesty Of the Law.

Over and above the common service of
proving Wills and granting Marriage Ii
censes, this Court often tries cases of Petit
Larceny and other crimes and misdemean-
ors. December LIST was the commencement
OF the late term, during which the ladies Of
Tontogany brought suit for selling whis-
key contrary to the statute. During the
process of this trial the necessity of being
very accurate, especially if one is going to
law, was made sufficiently plain to teach
any observer, that the execution of the law
requires sharp practice. The defendant
was found guilty and the verdict was rem
dered accordingly. But owing to small
error in regard to the time OF the transac-
tion, the Court set aside the verdict and or
dered a new trial. The evidence was so
strong that the second jury agreed with the
first and brought in verdict of guilty.
But the keen-eyed lawyers found another
slight error and appealed to the Court OF
Common Pleas, which sits in January next
One would have supposed, that Mr.. Whis-
key would nave Deen satlSnou after TWO
juries had pronounced him guilty. But
no! That gentleman will try to crawl out
of the meshes OF the law covered all over
with guilt, and show the ladies of Tontog-
any that he ID too smart for them. lie has
showed sagacity enough to secure one OF
the best read lawyers in the State to help
him out No doubt the temperance raiders
have found out by this time that they have
undertaken big job. Whiskey, like Ban
quo's Ghost, will not stay down.
Col shannon made a good plea for them,
rand under his withering rebuke some of the
whiskey ring turned pale. But that was only
the sign of madness, not submission. The
Coils plea brought out one consideration,
which ought to be borne in mind by both
lawyers, judges and jurors: The end the
law is iustice-to convict the guilty and
protect the innocent. If the law does not
do this it loses its dignity. When the law
proves to be a safeguard and a blessing its
majesty stands out grandly to challenge our
admiration. Bat when it is 30 inter
pretsd by legal quibbling as to food the
land with thieves then it has no claims
which we are bound to respect. JUROR.

The shortest waV to reach the far West is
through st. Louis, the great Ms5ippi Valley
City, of over 100000 inhabitants, aud thence
over the ST. Louis, Kansas City and Northern
Short Line, which reaches all the great land
grants in the West, and runs six fast express
trains. two more than any other road, between
the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers. This road
in the last two years has expended over two
million dollars, besides earnings, in extraordi-
nary improvements of roadway, in reaying its
line with best quality of new steel and iron rails
on broad new ties, and in passenger equipment,
having substituted for ordinary cars new re-
clining chair coaches, with every appliance for
comfort and safety, being elegantly carPeted
and fitted With dressing rooms, with toilet con

cling with children, free of any extra charge.

And Yet BE not Deceived.

Mr.. EDITOR In last issue the Buckeye
Granger man cites attention to few words
OF mine, advice to voters on the eve OF the
last election, wherein it occurred to say :.
" Grungerism smells too much of Kaow- Noiiiag-
ism to be Of long LII" whereby, he as
serts that the Changers were traduced." +"
Without saying he knows, or is himself
posted member of the Order, as he calls it,
he AYERS the writer OF the statement referred
to, showed himself to be utterly ignorant Of
its principles and sources of unity; and af-
terwards sets forth what he, no doubt, deems
to be very popular and good appearing
features, with which he chooses to clothe the
Order and then charges all virtuous far
mers, in association with their wives, sons
and daughters, as being engaged and involv-
ed in the matter.
Ignorant as one may be, generally, of the
intent of a secret society it is not ones hon
or to belong to, the gentleman plainly
over-does himself. His piece simply tells
that he wishes to be thought well of by the
Order, and without really knowing anything
about it or its objects, he gives it the best
puff he can to gain its favor; and there is
really nothing in all he says to require 9TH
er answer. Much might be said, but here it
is enough to say, in this country the princi-
pie and source of unity is the UNION, still
preserved by REpUsLIcANIsM, and to be so,
while prices of things take care of themselves
in the course of honest trade, alike for the
farmer and all the people. MEMO.
