THE TEMPERANCE CAUSE.

Just as the LEDGER predicted three
months ago, the whisky crusade in Ohio
and elsewhere is ended, and the reaction
has set in. At first the liquor sellers
were dumbfounded at the sight of fe-
male prayer meeting in their saloons,
and many Of them sold out or closed
their places. 1t was a novelty, and
crowds OF men stood around to watch
the proceedings. What else could the
sellers do but surrender A. spirit of
fanaticism took possession Of these mus
cular females, and they soon, if not at
FIRST, passed the bounds Of discretion
and commoDIsense. They we're tyrannical
in their demands, and wanted men not
only to acknowledge that they engaged
in disreputable, soul and body-destroy-
ing business, but to shut up at once,
even if their families starved. II was

UExT THURSDAY.

The LEDGER of this day week, which
nil he the day following the primary
election, will contain almost a correct
list of the delegates elected in the city
and country to the county convention
Meanwhile the people will scrutinize the
action of the subcommittee and the
tickets made upin the wards very closely
No time is to be lost in determining
who TO send. As far aspossible we hope
that the best men will be chosen, and
all things being equal, the best are those
wbo are untrammelled and have the sue
cess Of the whole ticket at heart The
delegate who goes IN to nominate a ia
vor;te for a certain Office regardless of
he rest of the ticket is to be dreaded.
The ticket must be well assorted
and distributed all the way through else
II will be beaten. We have warned the
people that slight mistake may prove
fatal. The majority Of the anti-Radical
party is less than one thousand. Ire
mendous interests are at stake, and men
should be willing, if need be, to sacri-
fee their personal interests for the sake
of success. The people demand
a fair deal, and nothing less
will give entire satisfaction or
hiring out a full vote. The whole State is
watching this movement with intense
interest. II it wins, the news will be re-
ceived with delight from Shelby to Car
ter; if not, the friends of Conservatism
fraternity and progress in many States
will be discouraged. Failures now can
only be caused by incompetency in man
agement or selfish greed for the spoils OF
Office. The city is thoroughly aroused to
the importance Of carrying Oh this cleo
ton in the spirit Of the Bartlett move
ment. The country is unanimous on
the same subject, and, we are assured,
will send up a splendid delegation OF
the most intelligent and high toned
gentlemen that have ever appeared in
any convention. After all that has been
said and done it is reasonable to expect
harmony, prudence and wisdom, and a
solid, well.balanced, unexceptionable
ticket. Otherwise there will be trouble

Embalning.

ALondon journal, discussing the sub
ject of embalming, presents some state
ments which seem to show that the ap-
piicatien of heat to bodies filled with
bitumen was the essential part of the
Egyptian mummifying process-that, in
fact, the mummies owe their preserva-
ton to creosote, formed by the applica-
ton of great heat to the bitumen. 1t
appears that all the substance found
within mummies are of resinous ma
ture. but that their mere Introduction
into the great cavities of the body,
along with external lotions of wine,
would answer the purpose of embalming
seems contrary to fact. Many, if not
all, mummies have their muscular It's
sue impregnated with resinous matter;
most of them are also blackened and
burned, and in some the tissues have
been reduced to ashes The inner band
ages are generally in state resembling
finder; and as it seems absurd to sup
pose that the application of heat was
without some practical object, rational
conclusion is that, by means OF 1t the
body became impregnated with creosote,
derived from the decomposition OF the
bitumen and bandages with which 1t
was previously covered.

The Czar,s Nose.
From a London letter.

From London Letter.
There has certainly, however, been a
deterioration in the physique of the
Russian Imperial family since the time
Of Nicholas. Nicholas was undoubtedly
one of the very handsomest and noblest
figures in Europe, and his features and
expression we're as commanding as his
physical bulk. The present Gar is tall
and comely in his way, but he is cast IN
a less stately and heroic mold than his
father. His face is amiable, but with
out much dignity. 1t is, in fact, rather
soft; and the nose, which in Nicholas
was majestic, in his son has begun to
decline into the little round button
which is seen on the fat Calmuck faces
of the grandchildren. The old saying,
"Scratch Russian and you come upon
a Tartar" is applicable here in another
sense. The short, dumpy stature, bull,
let heads, fat faces, and small eyes and
noses of the Czarowitz. the Duchess OF
Edinburg and the Grand Duke Alexis,
are Enthusiastically Of the Tartar type.
