Practical Reformers,

The State Temperance Conven-
ton of women, which met in Ohio
recently, passed q resolution in favor
Of reviying the law which provides
for an inspector of the quality OF
liarors, and to punish their adulte-
ration. AT last the friends Of tenn
perance have made q wise move,
and one that will commend itself to
the better portion ofthe community,
which uses wines and beers, and to
the German brewers themselves,
who have been the most active
opponents of the temperance move
ments in Ohio. That State already
has q law of this kind, passed twen-
ty years ago, which has become q
dead letter. and its revival and en-
forcement would be productive OF
great good. 1t Is q notorious fact
that the poisonous authorizations OF
liquors are the sources Of most Of the
evils attending the $ of intoxica-
ling drink, and are the direct means
Of maddening and Grazing men. In
countries where pure wines and
beers are sold, drunkenness and its
attendant crimes ard horrors are
comparatively unknown. No ar
gument can be adduced which is
valid against such q law.
Suppose that grocers were selling
flour, or sugar, or tea, so ad~ulterated
with poisonous compounds that they
endangered not only the health but
the safety of the family and the
community. How long would it be
before inspectors would be appoint
ed and the poisonous stuff con-
demned and destroyed, and the sell
Ter of i~tpunished? If the public can
thus be protected i'm what it eats,
why should it not be protected in
what it drinks? If liquor must be
sold and men must drink-and
both these facts are pretty con-
elusive if the experience of Gen.
turtles is of any accOunt-then let 1t
be imperative that only pure liquors
shall be sold. Let the drinker have
a remedy against the dealer in q
law which will protect him, and let
him have a competent chemist up
on whom he may call at any
time to ascertain whether he
is drinking pure or poisonous Ii
quors. There can be no objection
against such q protection, and the
temperance people of Ohio have at
last made q demand which should
he insisted upon by the whole pub
lie. Those dealers who would OPP
pose it are primd Jdcia guilty, and
their opposition should have no
Chicago Tribune.

from our banks at the legal rates OF
interest-others who lack credit
or c~ollaterals, are forced to pay usur-
ious rates, ranging from Is to so per
cent.
This discrimination against one
class of borrowers and in favor OF
another class viii always continue.
And now let us examine the ques-
tior of demaud and supply which
governs the price paid for the use
of money, just as it governs all other
commercial transactions.
Amasa Walker, in his work on
political economy declares that the
more money we have had in circu-
lation the higher has been the rate
of interest. Professor Walker es-
tablishes the fact by taking the
amounts of currency afioat a tdiffer-
ent times, as shown by the bank re-
turns, and comparing these amounts
with the rates of interest at the
same times, as stated il the market
reports. The reason why imitation
necessarily advances the rates
of interest are self-evident. In
the first place imitation caus-
es o general advance in prices,
and this encourages reckless
speculation, and hence a brisk de-
mand for money. For instance, in
1865 when the volume Of the cur
rency afioat was almost twice as
large as it is to-day, the legal rate
of interest in Nebraska was Is per
cent, and nobody grumbled about
1t, simply because everybody was en-
gagged in speculative pursuits which
promised largereturns. Imitation nat
urally begets aspirit of extravaganza
and money gambling which
is always accompanied by a brisk
demand for morey. Money Is cheap
in Germany and France, while it is
very high in Austria. The only
reason for this is that Germany and
France have a substantial currency
with a specie basis, while Austria is
submerged by irredeemable paper
promises. The Chicago Times in an
able review on cheap money refers
to this fact as follows:
"For more than a century and a
half Austria has been cursed By a
swindling paper money system. In
fiation has followed imitation again
and again, and the usual consequent
ces have always been realized: de-
probation, advancing prices, specu-
lation, fictitious wealth, panic, re-
vulsion, reputation. The element
of uncertainty thus introduced into
all time transactie s has worked
fearful decentralization throughout
the empire, but most of all in Wen
ma. The people of that city are
reckless, prodigal, and dissipated.
The city has become a city Ofshams.
And intelligent historians concur
in the opinion that this is due to q
variable standard of value more
than to any other cause"
Does anybody doubt that like
causes would not produce like effects
in this country? The fact is cheap
money can only be had by stability
in our financial system, which can
only be brought about when a paper
dollar will be exchangeable for a
specie dollar. This condition can
not and need not necessarily be
reached during the present year OF
the next year, but it should be
steadily kept in view as the only
safe and sure plan for securing
cheap money to the people.

A Grand Dress.

The lace dress which was manufac-
tured by the Compagnie des Indies of
Paris for the Express Eugene, and
which is of the lately revived old Ven
etian point, IS thus described by lady
correspondent 10 Vienna "The ex-
Empress Eugenie's lace dress is the
all-absorbing attraction of the lace de-
partment. The stitch of which it is
made, you know, was lost for ages, and
had only been recovered through the
exertions of the ex-Empress of France
Just before her downfall and exile. 1t
is made up over black velvet, and shows
to fine effect on that fabric. The under
skirt is in one piece, not founced, its
design being a heavy scalloped border
of roses and tulips entwined with leaves,
and interlacihg with another border
formed of fine scallops of forget-me-
nots and ivy leaves. Each scallop has
a medallion figure filled with roses,
tulips, and forget-me-nots imbedded in
an urn of exquisite workmanship. An
other medallion semi-encircles this
one, and the two are tied with true
lovers knot carried around the whole
underskirt. This true-lover's knot ty-
ing the medallions and interlacing over
the whole is considered the gem of the
design. A square court train of black
velvet, trimmed with lace half yard
wide, of the same design, covers the
back of the dress. It is formed of two
breadths which are united in the back
with shell work of black velvet one
eighth of an inch wide. This train
unites with an overskirt open in front,
with broad lappels turned back and
faced with peach-colored satin. The
corsage and sleeves of velvet are trim
med with bertha and ruffles of the
lace. A handkerchief and fan in lace of
the same stitch and design accompany
this magnificent dress, to which no
price can be attached. p"

The Russian Government.

In letter to friend, United States
Minister Jewell gives his impressions
of Russia briefly as follows: "This
Government is of it's kind perfection
and clock work itself. The Emperor is
man of brains, force, and progress,
and think he has real love for his
people. They certainly appear very
fond of him, all classes. He appoints
the Council, Senate, and courts, and
these make and execute the laws. His
displeasure is not pleasant thing to
incur. The people may be no more
honest than ours, but exposure is too
risky. So the shells are never filed
with sand nor do the troops run. The
most powerful man here after the EN-
peror is 'Tripoff,' Chief of Police-a
man of wonderful executive ability
always at fire, row, or parade. He
is always just behind the Emperor when
out, and says who may come and who
may not, and who shall be tried, too, L
think, and perhaps who may be con-
victed He just runs this city, and
does it to perfection. He is accounta-
BILE to nobody but the Emperor. I send
to him to get Americans out OF scrapes,
or out of the country, or to do anything
else. All know is that it is done. His
dispatch to the frontier let's anybody III
or out'or stops them for examination.
He is said to be a. very just man, as he
certainly is very active one.

The Perils OF the Sea.

The North German brig Calsow
Stesow, small vessel, not 300 tons, left
New York for Constantinople last Au-
gust, and on the oath of that month
hurricane struck her. She was taken
unawares, and went over on her beam
ends, where she lay for an hour and a
half, the crew lashed on to her port
bulwarks, unable, apparently, to cut
away the shrouds and stays. After the
time named she relieved herself of every
thing but the lower masts, and righted;
but she lay so low in the water with the
waves which she had taken on board
that the crew had to climb to the head
of the foremast in order to avoid being
drowned by the "green seas" Laden
with buoyant cargo, the brig did not
founder, but she wallowed 20 and fro in
the trough of the sea, constantly washed
by the pillows, so that night and day
the five hands surviving, withfthe Cap
tain and mate, had to cling for life to
that fore-top. Six nights and four days
the poor fellows were Kept III their hard
plight, without morsel to eat or q
drop of water to drink, the sea per-
petually sweeping over their deck, and
roaring certain death at them if they
tried to come down to find scrap of
nourishment. On the sixth evening,
like tiger that has howled itself to
exhaustion at the foot of o tree, the
fierce billows quieted, and the weak,
cramped wretches, six days starved, crept
down and 'rummaged , for food. They
found a case of preserved meat, some
wine, lime-iuice, and beer, and it
helped them to live. In spite of this,
and little more which they afterward
extracted from the soaked cabins, they
had still dreadful time to pass. There
was no shelter, and nothing to be had
to support life but an odd tin or two of
provisions and first the boy died, then
the boatswain, and afterward a sailor.
For six days they had tasted nothing,
and during ten days more the survivors
had lived on the scantiest scraps, when
a Spanish vessel, the Amable Asuncion,
came in sight. She boarded the water
logged, mastless brig, and found upon
her deck four living men, too weak to
heaye the dead ones into the sea-gaunt,
speechless, famished creatures-too far
gone even to wave flag or handker-
chief, though they saw the Spaniard and
his signal. The Dons were kind and
clever, and fed the poor creatures so
carefully on board their bark that the
futtering spark of life burned up again,
and Captain, mate, carpenter, and a
seaman were saved and brought in fair
condition to Vigo. But what bitter
ness is there in death which these poor
souls had not tasted, aloft six days, might
and day, in gnawing hunger above that
bowling, tiger-like sea and, after the
storm, starving more or less on the
shelterless deck for another ten days,
with the dead, who must have seemed
so much more fortunate, lying among
them

A New Fuel.

A Belgian paper publishes q letter
from Hasselt, announcing the discovery
of a succedaneum for coal. The letter
says: "Two days ago a peasant of our
neighborhood went the round of all the
coffee houses with a sack containing
earth. He said that he had found the
means of heating rooms with that sub
stance impregnated with a solution of
soda. He made the experiment before
a crowd of people, and succeeded.
Next day the whole town was in great
excitement. Everybody had tried the
new discovery, and L did the same.
Following the mans instructions, 1
filed scuttle three-quarters with
small coal, and the remaining fourth
with vegetable mould then sent for
a halfpenny worth of carbonate of
soda, which / dissolved in half litre
of water, and then mixed up the solu-
ton with the rest. This quantity has
been sufficient to warm my room from
2 p. NJ. till p. NJ"

men and professional men are obliged
to go through who succeed. The con-

so fan as the physical constitution is
concerned; but there is connected with
the business of the city so much COM
petition, so much rivalry, so mucn ne

there is one that can succeed in the
