BREWERS CONGRESS-.

The national Brewers Congress
met in Boston on the 3 inst, for
consultation. They had a time of
beGr-drinking and rejoicing. They
rejoieed because more barrels of
beer had heen brewed during the
Brewers year ending June lst,
than in any previous gear. During
the year just closed, Sel9,S23 bar
rels of feFmsnted liquors were
brewed and sold. This is an in
crease over the preceding year of
9l0,854 barrels. This mighty in
crease rejoices the hearts Of thOss
Brewers because it puts money in
tEsir pockets. 1t insures to them
riches and luxury. They rejoice
in these Hhile widows and or
phans groan, ESaniacs rave, and
criminals pine in prison. Because
they are making money they re-
iOice over the ruin Of young men,
the disgrace Of the helpless inebri-
ate. the poverty aad Disgrace of his
family. They rejoice oyer crime
and misery, bloodshed and debaRch-
cry. They laugh while men sink
down from their beer barrels to
death and endless damnatipn. The
ruiR of men, women aud children,
crime aud misery in community,
tears and g-oans of wives and
mothers, the awfSll life and fearful
death of their victims, Eo2e of these
things weigh a feather with the
beer-bloGted crew, because they
make money By the manufacture
of liquor.
We would call attention 70 > dec
lsratioR OF the President of the as.
soci ton. Speaking of the increase
of their horrible business, he said:
This steady increase IN eORsump.
ton of fermented liquor, is spread
ing at the rate Of almost one mill
ion barrels per year, in spite Of all
the fanatical temperance agitatiOns
preaehsd from pulpits aud by the
National Temperance Society"
Then the "fSEetical" temperance
preachers and societies must ire
double their diligence" They
must wage q war OF exterminStioa
against the Eanholy business. They
must eOniinns their "agitations''
until whisky distilling &ad beer
brewing are made odioas. There
mnst be an increase of preaching

law-enforcing, against the business

Gen. Sherman, IL Is said, Is highly

L. s. CIRCUIT COURT.

In one of the large rooms OF the
new court house is now being held
a term of the u. s. Circuit court
for the district OF Kansas. This
court IS composed of Hon. Samuel
F. Miller, OF Iowa, a member OF
the U. s. Supreme court; Hon.
John f. Dillon, of Iowa, U. S. Cir
cui. Judge; and Hoa. C. G. Foster,
of Atchison, U. S. DrisGrict Judge
for the district of Kansas. Our
readers are mostly aware OF the
high character of the first named
members of this court. They ar
men of great learning and parity OF
character. They are noted for their
profound ability, importantly of
judgment, and devotion to the
cause of justice. They are such
men rs inspire the public with con-
fldence In the courts of the country.
They are not only eminent and pure
officers, but are men of the finest
possible character. They are held
in great esteem by both the bsr and
the people. OuryOung Judge, FOs-
ter, also receives many compli-
ments. He lie already exhibiting
qualities which will win him emf
hence on the bench. There must be
over hundred lawyers In attend
ance. The hotels are crowded with
clients, attorneys and jurymen.
The hotel officials say they have
not had such a rush since the war.
Judge Miller dispatches business
rapidly. II is sometimes amusing
to see him stirring mp the lawyers.
Some cases we're dismissed because
they were not ready. He hates any
thing like Pettifogging. or humbug-
ing, and those who resort
to such methods OF conducting
their cases, are generally brought to
q Ground turn" Little time is

methods often resorted to by law

CIVIL R1GHTS IN A BARBER SHOP. -
A Chattanooga letter to the Cincinnati
Commercial, says: That was good re-
ply which colored barber in this c;ty
gave to delegation Of colored men
who called upon him for the purpose
of claiming the right to be shaved
''the same as white man" "Sir," /"
said the spokesman of, the delegation,
"we demand the right to be shaved
here" -
''lt can't be DONE" answered the
coloredt barber.
Then the spokesman came down
with pertinent thrust, saying. "Ain't
our money. as good as anybody
AID the oolored barber answered thus:
Eyes, just as good, but there is not
enough Of it." .,i
That covered the case exactly. It
was an answer worthy of a philoso-
pher. The darkey's money is as good
as anybody's to the barber, but there
is not enough of it to compensate him
for the loss of bis white custom.
The barber, in telling me, this cir
cumstanoe, said; 81 am acolored map,
and have to work for q living, and the
minute l commenced shaving darkeys
that minute every one of my white
customers would leave me-. The big
gest Radical In, town would quit me
just like the Democrats. It's contrary
to. the nature of O white man to want
to mix that way with the negroes: ::
and, what's more, they won't do it.
You cant get a white man in this town
to shave ia q shop where negroes are
shnved. I wouldn't either, if I was
them, and I'm not going to break up
my business to commodatc few
eli-head niggers who want to put on
oil the style of white. men,"
Now, when colored men will not ad-
NIT their colored brethren to the en-
joyment OF equal rights in tue barber
shop, how are VIC to expect white men
to dojt? N , J.
