The "Gus" La~...Another View OF IL.

All things considered, the "gag-law"
matter is having wonderfully good run.
Somebody began to cry "mad dog" in the
business, as somebody oflen does, without
much consideration, and the cry, because
It iDds a cry of mad dog" appealed strong
~ to the popular ear and the popular
tongue is vigorously repeating ii. When
everybody gets tired of say "gag-law," ev-
erybody will stop; there will be nobody
bitten, and that will be the end of 1t.
Hero Is the Act which caused all the per-
turbation, entire:
IAN ACT comforting jurisdiction upon the
Criminal Court u the District Of Columbia,
and for other purposes. BE 1t enacted by
the Senate and House OF Representatives of
the United States OF America in Congress
assembled that the Criminal Court of the
District of Columbia shall have jurisdc-
ton of all crimes and misdemeanors COM
mitted in said District, not lawfully triable
in any other court, and which are required
by law to be presented by indictment or
Information.
"SEC. 2. That the provisions of the thir-
ty-thrd section of the Judiciary act of 1889
shall apply to courts created by act of Con-
gress in the District OF Columbia"
This looks innocent enough, and no won
der 1t passed both Houses of Congress and
remained for some time without it's de-
structive nature being discovered and
here Is the Act of 1889 referred to:
"SEC. 80. Aud belt further enacted, that
for any crime or offense against the United
States, the offender may, by any justice or
judge OF the United States, or by any JUS
tice of the peace, or other magistrate ofany
of the United States where lie may be
found, agreeably to the usual mode of
process aginst offenders In such state, and
at the expense of the United States, be ar
rested, imprisoned or bailed as tie case
! may be, for trial before such court of the
United States as by this act has cognizance
of the of1icers.'
Now, as 10 whether the Act is right or
wrong, In relation to matters not connected
| with newspapers, we know nothing; we
have simply TO inquire as to whether 1t APP
plies to the libel business, which is con-
nected with newspapers. And that inqui-
ry will be tolerably brief
The Act by reference TO that of 1889, APP
plies to ''any crime or oifense against the
United States," which means any act made
a crime or offense by law OF the United
States. And libel is not "crme or Of
Tense" OF that kind. Libel is an offense
under the common law" which prevails
in the District of Columbia, as in the most
Of the States, and under 1t Washington
newspaper could be indicted and punished
at Washington for libel. II is not an Of
Tense against the United States or United
States laws, and this Act has no more APP
plication to libel, which is an otfense un-
der common law, than TO an unwashed
countenance, which is an offense under
the social law. 1t applies to olfenses against
the United States only; libel is not an of.
tense against the United States; and that's
the end OF the worsted.- Woodstock Post.

JOHN @. WHITTIER AT HoNE.-It Is
we'll known that Ameshuy IL the home OF
John G. Whittier. We o1en wondered
why he selected this place for his residence,
but, on visiting 1t, our wonder has ceased.
A more health!ul, delightful spot he could
not well have selected. His neat, well ar
ranged cottage stands near the center of the
village-a little distance from lis stir and
noise-amid great quietness and beauty !;
and everything around it denotes the del
icate taste, and the pure, ennobling quail
ties OF the great poet. 1t is marvellous how
he accomplishes so much, with his feeble
and weak constitution, and age ia getting
strongly upon him but he is dligent, ask
ing the most of his opportunities, laying all
of his resources under contribution for no.
BILE purposes. His pen is active, aud was
never accomplishing greater good for the
world. Some of his best productions have
been given TO the public within a short
time, and, If mistake not, the most valua-
BILE and important of them all are yet to
come. He is most highly respected and
greatly beloved by his fel citizens here
His very presence, as he walks the streets,
commands respect, His manly, dignifed
form may be seen nearly every morning
moving in the direction of the post office,
where, In room near by, he tarries a short
time to converse with those who may de-
sire such privilege. His great deicacy
of feeling, pure, disintarested love, broad,
consistent view of all moral subjects, and
an earnest desire TO promote the happiness
of others, is seen in all his social inter-
course. Large numbers visit him from all
parts of the country, and never are they
more welcome than in his quiet, cheerful
home. l should think his frequent visit
ors would often be annoying to him, but
nothing of the kind is indicated, always
showing great delight in those who visit
his cottage. A more perfect specimen of a
gentleman, intelligent. public-spirited cit
izen and consistent, devoted christian, l
have seldom, If ever, seen. l shall anx-
iously wait for the next production OF his
pen, which trust, will soon DO given to
the public.--1meSbury Letter.

No housekeeper should no without bot
tie Of spirits Of ammonia, for, beside its
medicinal value, II is invaluable for house
hold purposes. II Is nearly as useful as
soap, and lis chenpness brings II within the
reach OF all. Put teaspOOnful OF ammo
mia in n quart of warm soapsuds, dip In
flannel cloth, and wipe of the dust aud fly
specks, grim and smoke, and see for your
selves how much labor il will save. No
scrubbing will lie needrul. II will cleanse
and brighten silver wonderfully; TO pint
of hot suds mix n toaspoonlul Of the spirits,
dip in your silver spoons, forks, etc., rub
with hr, sh, and then polish on chanos
skin. For washing mirrors aud windows
il Is very desirable; put few drops OF am
monia on newspaper, and you will readi-
ly take out overy spot and finger mark on
the glass. II will take out grease spots
from overy fabric; put on the ammonia
nearly clear, put blotting paper over the
place aud press n hot laliron on IL for n
few moments. A few drops in water will
clean laces and whiten them as well also
muslin. Then II is a most refreshing agent
at the toilet table; few drops In basin
of water will make q better bath than pure
water, and II the skin IL oily II will remove
all glOssincss and disagreeable odors. Ad-
dcd 10 foot bath it entirely absorbs all
noxiuus smells, 30 often arising from the
feet In warm weather, and nothing Is bet
ter for cleansing The hair FROM dand-un
aud dust. For cleaning hair aud nail
brushes 1t is equally good. Put teaspoon
ri A. H.. I.
cold water, shake the brushes through the
wafer, and put them in the sunshine, or in
a warm place to dry. The dirtiest brushes
will come out Of this bath white and clean.
For medicinal purposes, ammonia Is al
most unrivalled. For headache II Is de-
sirab'e stimulau;, aud frequently inhallng
its pungent odur will. often entirely re-
move a catarrhal cold. There is no better
remedy for heart burn aud dyspepsia, and
the aromatic spirits of ammonia is espec-
tally prepared for these troubles; ten drops
Of it in wine. glass of walci are great re-
lief. The spirits OF ammonia can u" taken
in the same way, but it il not palatablu.
In addition 1" all these uses, the effects If
ammonia on vegetation are beneficial. II
you desire roses, gctIniums, fuchsils, etc.,
to become more hourishing, you can try it
upon them by adding five or six drops OF
1t to every pint Of warm water that you
give them, but don't r. peat the dose often e
er lhan once in every five or six days, lost
you stimulate thcm too highly. Rain wa
ter j. inirrrgnatcd with ammonia, and thus
| it rcrrrshps and reyiviiics vegetable life.
