TIE great temperance excitement OF
last srping seems to be undergoing reac.
lion in some places. The city OF Cleve-
land has abolished the Sunday laws, and
liquor will now DO sold not only on week
days but likewise on Sunday. The Cleve.
land Herald of Tuesday deplores the ex-
treme to which the reaction has gone in
thus opening up the saloons on Sunday,
and moralizes upon the result as follows
1--WE have endeavored Ito show that
the temperance people by their peculiar
mode Of warfare were iniuring the cause
they were trying to further. They car
ried the matter TO one extreme and have
Lost by 1t. The reboundI came, and the
liquor men have naturally gone TO the
other extreme. We predict they will
also find they have been too Jealous, and
that they do not represent the views oil
the sober, thinking majority Of the ciu-
zenS Of Cleveland"

WASHINGTON, July IA, 1874.
Great excitement prevails here tonight on
account of the reports from the Chicago fire.
Bulletins are put out at the telegraph Office on
the receipt OF any information, and the Office
is thronged with anxious inquirers after news.
Every despatch is eagerly scanned, especially
by those having business in the fated city.
The sad intelligence is the cause of pro-
foundest sympathy among the citizens Of
Washington. As the crowds surge before the
bulletin board the lightest speculations as to
the final results of the calamity are listened to
with ayidity.
