SERVING A PURPOSE.

In ancient Greece when the Athenians
gave a public banquet there were always
present certain slaves or helots VINO
were made drunk and exposed In that
condition to the gaze of the young men
present. The intention was to produce
in the tender mind Of youth certain
amount of disgust for the inebriate and
thus ensure repugnance for the liquid
that reduced the slave to that condition.
In our day such practical temperance
lectures are unknown, but from time to
time some harmless lunatic unwittinsly
adopts the character of the ancient helot
and in that manner 10 OF useful purpose
in illustrating the folly of certain ideas
and purposes. In g recent letter written
for publication-and therefore open to
criticism-Wendell Phillips comes out
sauarely in favor Of General Grant for n
third term and plenty of paper for
currency. Tho ambiguous construction
of the Presidents letter had the effect
of producing on the minds OF many an
impression that he was still in the field
and among them is the illustrious ex
FOUNDER OF human rights from Boston
In connection with this he has also con
ceived the idea that all the country want
is enough paper currency. The sub
iect of the third term and the still mort
important question Of the currency
have been under discussion for some
time, and it is generally understood that
neither the one cor the other is accepta
BILE or congenial to the majority OF tbs
American people. Without entering into
my discussion or stating facts patent t.
all, we have occasion to congratulate thu
nation at large in the possession OF sue
harmless type of political insanity a
Wendell Phillips. There are times i
the history of our country when we ar
apt to stray; our ideas in relation to pc

GREAT CRY AND LITTLE WOOL.

1t is now over six weeks since the new
broom of Secretary Brstow commenced
sweeping up the CROOKED" whisky men,
but so far, with one or two trifling e1cep
tions, we fail to hear of any delinquents
being brought to punishment. In an af-
fair of this kind prompt and energetic
action is always necessary to insure con-
viction. The Chicago Tribune tells of
gentleman in that city behind the scenes
who remarks that 1.-THE prosecution OF
the whisky men will damage the Repub-
lican party; they are all good fellows,
command votes, and ought to he let
alone" Certainly they ought. but as
long AS the breeze has been raised, it
shouldn'. be allowed to subside without
some result ensuing to prevent recur-
renee of fraud. The slow and tardy
manner of going about the work is sufli-
Gent proof how dis,astetu. the job is to
them. When they want set of books
they have mysterously disappeared
when witness ia needed he can't be
found, and If the principal is required
he has had ample time to seek other and
fairer scenes. Ii the prosecution seeks
to postpone action in relation to the al
legged frauds until after the Presidential
campaign, it will commit great mistake.
Secretary Rristow's name has been men
toned in connection with the Presidency,
and the present ish golden opportunity
for him to show what he can do. 1t is
universally conceded on all sides that
talk is cheap" 1t is also generally ad-
mitted that lit takes money to buy
whisky" We are OF the opinion that
the proverb can be supplemented by the
proposition that it also takes money to
buy counivance at frauds in whisky, and
now that the hunt has been started, the
hounds of the law should pursue without
giving tongue till the quarry stands at
bay. Nothing can be gained in this mat.

new roasting furnace for the reduction of
ore. 1t is believed that in this manner
80 per cent. of the assayed value can be

furnace Of this character can be erected
| and run at much less cost than the
present style. In connection with this
we may say that it is contemplated to
erect one shortly in Phoebe. Arrange,
ments are pending to have furnace Of
that construction put up by the HUM 4

lions are successful the affair will be
