THE COLUMBUS CRUSADE

IN STATU QUO-THE QUAKER LADIES BOUND
TO FIGHT IT U ON THAT n
CoLoMBUs, Ind, Feb. 13.-The Quakers are
going on with their work of praying and
pleading with the saloon-keepers, but as
yet, with but poor success, still they are not
discouraged, and announce their intention
OF remaining here for six months unless
the saloons arc in the meantime closed.
The people of the town are becoming more
interested and are beginning to take an
active part in the movement. No doubt the
effect of the prayers of the Quaker ladies
would have been felt more but for the action
of the editors of the papers of this place es-
pecislly of Brown of the Republican, who
has been preaching temperance through his
paper for the past year, while at the same
time he had a well-worn path from his
Office to the back door of one of the leading
saloons of the town. When called upon to
sign the pledge and do as he had been
councilling others to do, he refused, and i'm
mediately prepared a TRADE of abuse against
those engaged in the work, but be il said to
the praise of the proprietors of the paper,
it was not allowed to be published, still the
old man did what he could against the cause
by his talk on the street. The Republican is
a neat looking paperand we would be pleased
to see it prosper, but in order to do so it
will be necessary to change tactics, as the
people are becoming thoroughly aroused,
and ere long will refuse to support those in
favor of intemperance. More anon.

THE MUNCIE

SIGNING THE A OF TIL
WHISKY ENTHUSIASTIC MASS
MEETING-IHE PLANNED.
From an occasional correspondent of the sentinel.l
MUNCIE, Feb. II.
TIL ladies' temperance movement that
has been exciting so many parts of Ohio and
Indiana, has at last taken a strange foothold
in our midst and is each day gaining
strength. On Sunday night last, Wysor's
opera room, by far the largest hall in the
city was filled from parquette to gallery with
ladies and gentlemen who realize with hor-
ror the necessity of exterminating the
class of ruin called liquor dealers. The
meeting was a very enthusiastic one. Since
then the ladies have been hard at work and
have thus far induced two wholesale dealers
to abandon the traffic. The druggists nave
all signed an agreement to sell intoxicating
LIQUORS for medical purposes only.

A Havana correspondent says letters
from the insurrectionary district, dated the
10th of January, say that a few days pre-
viously General Calixto Garcia attacked the
village of Corralito, seizing an immense
number of cattle and other live stock. The
Spaniards left their intrenchments, but
were driven back into the fort, leaving be-
hind twelve killed and fifteen rifles. On
the 9th, at the same place, an action took
place, which lasted eight hours. The Spar
iards were about 1000 strong, but weF,
forced to retreat into their e~ncampmentf
leaving forty killed and many arms. rhtt
total loss IS calculated at $50. The CUT
loss in killed and wounded is sixty.

HOW THE TRES WATER FROM THE RODNEY SPRINGS
AT THE HEAD OF sHIPLEy run MIGHT BE UrlL-
lied.
Que Of the finest springs OF fresh water III or
around Wilmington is the Rodney spring, which
is the source or head Of Shipley Run, Oh the
west side of the new city basin, now under
course of construction. The Water Department,
III the commencement OF tho construction OF the
new basin, was somewhat puzzled Us to the best
disposition to be made of the water from thus
spring, which during the progress OF the worl,
would only be ali annoyance unless diverted
from it's natural channel.
1t was finally decided to trench aud lay pipe
from the source Of the spring along Franklin
street TO Tenth, and al ing Tenth down to Adams
below the BASIN, where it again empties INTO the
old original channel. This finally dlsposeh OF
the water from the spring 20 far aH the building
OF the basin is concerned, but is il not pity
that such stream of pure, fresh water should
be allowed to run to waste whenit could be made
welcome, aud could, with very little extra eX
pense be taken to the doors of hundreds OF
houses iii the western part of the city. and as
peciay TO those on Madison. Monroe and Adam,

Pipes, as we have already stated are beins
laid as lar down AZ Adams street, and but u
small expense more would carry them along ti
Madison, and then other pipes leading from lhit
main would carry the water down the three
streets named.
Perhaps it would be impractible at the present
time to carry out the latter part Of The suggestion

Ter. But little more expense would carry the
water as far as Madison street. and Il perpetua
running fountain be established on every street
between this and Jackson which would make

The horticultural Exhibition.

To the Editor Of l'ss Commercial
Tho Delaware Horticultural Society having
decided on holding their annual Exhibition the
very natural question srises Is there not life
and energy enough in the Society 70 make an
exhibition in fact as well as in name? 1t is true
the exhibitions ars held from year to year and
the proceeds devoted to one Of our noblest char
tiles, but the display Of fruit and vegetables.
for which we believe the Society was instituted
and intended to promote, has dwindled down so
smsll that the exhibition has but faint claim TO
Its original name. This should not be--Dela-
ware. the Garden State of our Union could give
an exhibition second to mono. Where else do
fruits and vegetables attain greater perfection
or more delicious flavor and where are there
greater varieties or moro abundant yield fer the
labor Of the Horticulturist Our whole State
should beinterested. competition from nelghbor-
ing states or counties invited, and instead of an
Exhibition barely deserving the paIne, and con-
tined to few reductions from one corner OF
New Castle county, they could astonish the
country with the grand display and make it an
nually ons Of the most attractive exhibitions
held in our city. Il.
