A Saratoga correspondent says
the elevator at the Grand Union is
the handsomest in the country. Its
sides are of plate glass mirrors. 1t is
very entertaining to watch the "very
sweet girls as they travel up and
down. Immediately on entering they
look over the costumes of their fellow
passengers. When they are satisfied
as to the number of one anothers
rings, ear-knobs and other ornaments,
they devote the remainder of the trip
to viewing themselves. The lace
handkerchief is employed brushing
superhuous powder from ears, next a
hairpips is adjusted, then the hat
drawn down more becomingly. Ele-
vators are bad places to crush tour
hours, which are worn very large.

OPENING OF SCHOoLs.-As the
schools are now being opened for the
coming year, it is opportune to call at
tention to the fact that the Young
holks Rural Monthly was used as a
text book in thousands of schools last
season, for reading exercises and as a
source for procuring dialogues and
matter for defamation and recitation.
An agreeable variety in reading les
sons is beneficial. This periodical is
without any doubt the best for young
people now Published at a low price.
1t has numerous novel and attractive
features, and pays cash prizes for
best compositions" poems, sketches,
essays, etc. Sample sent postpaid for
fifteen cents, Or fifty cents will pay

The PrOhibitOry Liquor Law.

The Boston Post had an article
recently upon the Democratic Conven,
ton Of that State, soon to assemble,
in which we find the following para
graph relative to the Prohibitory
Liquor Law-which contains SO much
truth in regard to that very objection
able statue, that we publish it below
as follows -
''People are impatient oftheseparty
restraints which compel them to range
themselves on the wrong side of the
Prohibitory law and its constabulary
appendages. They are now ready to
fight down this Legislative fraud in
front and without any disguise. They
have found it hypocritical, the nursery
of injustice and tyranny, stimulus to
informers on the one hand and to
bribery on the other, and in every as
pect a power for the generalization Of
popular sentiment. When its sup.
porters would libellously charge the
Democrats with being the party Of
free rum, what can be said for them
selves as a party but that their legis-
lation is more positively promotive of
free rum than any that has ever been
inflicted upon the State No law
that was ever devised by the wit Of
man could well yield worse fruits
than the Prohibitory law. There is
not a syllable more to be said for free
rum so long as this law has existence
TO make the demand for it secure. 1t
is free rum legitimated and erected in
to a State institution Instead of in
terdicting the traffic in intoxicating
spirits, this knavish statute notorious
ly encourages and establishes it; and
under cover Of its delusive authority
the baleful effects of the traffic, as free
as it is possible practically to make it,
are to be witnessed from one end of
the State to the other. For its dis
honest professions, its encouragement
to hypocrisy, informing, bribery, III
justice, and personal tyranny, it has
aroused the opposition of the people
from one end of the State to the 9th
er but for its promotion Of habits
that surely and swiftly undermine the
moral strength, the industry, and the
of the State, it challenges
the emphatic condemnation Of the
best men Of all parties without excep-
ton. Neither in theory nor practice
can it be defended before the people.
1t is at once mischiefmaker and mon
ster, a fraud and tyrant, and must
be put away by a deceived and indig
nant people"

Referring to the impeachment
trial of President Johnson, the Gin
cinnati Enquirer remarks that ''the
leading counsel for the President were
Acknowledgement Stanbery and Will
liam S. Groesbeck, Ohioans." This
is an error. The leading counsel was
the Hon. w. NJ. Evarts of New York,
afterward Attorney General. Mr..
Stanbery and Mr. Groesbeck, are en-
inent men, and they did their duty
well, as did the Hon. B. r. Curtis of
Boston, who was also on the Presi-
dents side. But the first position in
that memorable trial belonged to Mr..
Evarts.
