WIN Mhiskx Freeze2
From me WashingLan star.l

EIum Tie HchhhtNNh ht"ifl
1t was lately stated as an example of
intense cold that in Montana, on the
night of the 18th instant, the mercury in
the thermometers all froze, small guam
ties Of mercury in Walls became con.
gealed, and proof whisky placed out Of
doors froze solid in half an hour. This
last item is the only one which has else'
tied an expression Of incredibly. The
proof whisky that froza in half an hour
is regarded by a cotemporary as beyond
belief. The freezing Of the mercury
happens at thirty or forty degrees below
zero, but absolute alcohol, it is declared,
has never been frozen, though Professor
Faraday found it looked 4 little turbid
when subjected TO a temperature Tariff,
cial) Of 1862 below zero. High wines
contain 70 per cent. Of alcohol. PROOF
spirits of government standard are placed
at so per cent. alcohol, aud as the New
ark IN. j. Advertiser remarks, the alco
hol this Montana whisky contained would
have separated from the water il the
progress Of freezing like the core in ,
frozen barrel Of cider. If it actually
froze solid it was a harmless variety o
whisky. In the severest cold Of tn
Arctic explorations proof spirits neve
froze, though there was a burlesqu
about the men in Parrys expedition
chopping the brandy out Of the cask wit

Montana phenomenon is that the spirit

AHNG NNMOlCO
From the New Orleans Times, Democrat
Though our people have not much
faith in Gen. Philip Sheridan as a
military governor, yet they have a far
Grmer faith in an honest and equitable
military government than in the hybrid
autanomy of ignorance and greed to
which they have been subjected for lol
these many years. .
The chief, in fact the only source of
our troubles since the war, has been the
mischievous reconstruction policy forced
ON our people by Congress, and based
upon universal suffrage, instead of the
tried European plan Of military recon
struction, or the real American plan OF
impartial suffrage.
The car of progress, under the inebri.
ate cheers of organized ignorance and
~pretentious greed has been rushed into
the middle Of a quagmire, and no matter
which way the force is applied it will
puzzle honest ingenuity to place it back
npon the smooth rail Of prosperity.
Nothing so hampers the average
American politician; nothing has he 10
more constant dread THAI the loss oil
personal popularity. Nothing contrib
ntes more to warp his judgment and 10
emasculate his efforts than a constant
welding of the partisan balance pole,
when the individual should be wholly
merged in the grand interests Of the
State or nation. He sacrifices to tie
idol, policy, when the god, principle, il
utterly ignored. 49,.
