THE EVIL EFFECTS OF
LIQUOR.
A Father Attempts to Hang His
Little Daughter.

One Randall Byrnes, who claims to be of
Ireland and forty three years of age, which is
certainly old enough to know better, got on
one of his usual benders: Thursday evening,
and after filing up on bad whisky went to
his home on Urquhart street, between Spain
and Washington Avenue, and, as usual, made
things pretty lively around the house, amusing
himself by throwing around chairs, tables,
dishes. plates and tumblers.
Through and through everything he went
smashing and tearing and swearing to kill
all who dared to thwart his royal highness.
The unfortunate wife became alarmed and ran
into one of the rooms, locking the door to
keep her worser half out. After going through
every piece of furniture in the house, he pro-
ceeded to put his threat of killing into execu-
ton by hanging his little daughter.
The screams of the unfortunate child
brought the mother to the spot, when she
found that her husband had tied a rope
around his daughters neck and hung her to
the bed-post. Mrs. Byrnes attempted to stop
the drunken wretch, but was severely beaten
by him, upon which she ran out and called in
Officer Noting, of that beat, who compelled
Byrnes to desist.
They took the child down and found that
she had been cruelty beaten before her father
hung her, and had it not been for the appear
ance of the officer the child would not now
be alive. Byrnes was taken to the Washing
ton Square Station.

BLAINE on THE REPUBLICAN PLAN
OF COM TEST.

WASHINGTON, April 2.-The following rs
representing the line of argument upon
which the Republicans propose to make their
contest, is given place on the wires:
New HAVEN, April 2.-Tne Hon. JAS. g.
Blaine addressed Republican meeting here
this evening. He discussed the Southern
question at great length, Maintaining that SO
long as opposition to reconstruction On the
basis of tree suffrage and the Constitutional
issue in the South, the Republicans would be
compelled to make the support Of these
measures the principal issue III the North.
lie commented. with some severity On the
course pursued by the Democrats in Congress
on the Louisiana question. Said they had
arrayed themselves solidly against any adjust
ment whatever, every member of the party,
except Mr.. Stephens, OF Georgia, voting
against permitting tie question Of adjourn
ment and compromise to be even introduced
and considered by the House. He said the
evident aim of Democrats was to restore their
old mode OF ruling the country, viz: Unite
the South and detach enough OF the North to
constitute a majority with consolidated
South. They only needed forty-sevt cleo
toral votes in the North, and New York, Con-
necticut and California were just enough, with
1ndiana, New Jersey and Oregon to fight for.
Let each of the States thus menaced take
heed that it did not in peace enter coalition
TO destroy the fruits it had struggled for in
war. He did not have faith in additional
coercive legislation by Congress, nor would
he interfere in the government of any State
except as last resort for the public safety,
but he appealed to the voters of Connecticut,
and the loyal voters everywhere, to keep the
political power of the Union in the hands of
the unwavering and undoubted friends Of
the Union-those who had fought tor it and
saved it.
When the ends Of the war had been fully
attained; when free suffrage was everywhere
conceded, and when free speech was no.
where denied when Wendell Phillips and
Gen. Logan can speak as freely in Georgia as
Lamar and Gordon can speak in New Hamp-
shire, the necessity for further appeal to the
loyalty of the North will have ended. Until
then, while he would cultivate aud encourage
the kindliest feeling between the North and
the South, he would urge the North to hold
the political power as the guaranty Of safety
and prosperity to both sections.

A MERIrED TRIBUTE.

We clip the following deserved tribute from
the columns of the Morehouse Clarion, pub.
lished at Bastrop, La. We are not given to
the questionable habit of covering public
servants with praise. Under all ordinary cir
cumstances it is quite time, when man has
completed his term of public service, to APP
plaud him for having thoroughly performed
his duties. But there are exceptions to all
rules, however good, and most notable one
occurs in the case of our worthy Governor
elect and de jure Written history will show
to the coming generation a man who, chosen
by his people tor position the most impor-
tant, and surrounded by circumstances the
most extraordinary and trying, has evinced a
high moral courage, vivid appreciation of the
trust imposed on him, and tepacity of pur-
pose that must extort admiration from even
his enemies.
In the hands of such a man the liberties,
and consequently the peace, Of nations, are
forever safe; while under the foot of the para
site for whom bay onets have displaced him
neither liberty nor peace can raise their
heads:
Gov. McEnery returned to Monroe on the
10Th inst, after An absence, with the excep-
ton of short visit to his family last summer,
of nearly three years. These years of labor
aud anxiety, excitement and suspense, have
tod bu, little on the iron nerve and constitu-
ton of the Governor. His features seem not
a whit changed his ardor and fire seem not q
whit dampened. The people Of North Louis
lana were not mistaken in their man.
II any leader conld have won the fight of
the Democracy Of Louisiana. against political
tricksters and government iafuence, that
man was John NJ Emery. He brought to the
contest q strong will, an interchangeable energy,
an eloquent address, and a patriotic devotion
to right and the Cause OF the people, which
neither dishear:ening reverses nor executive
tyranny could frown into subsection or force
into compromise. 1t he has not succeeded,
it is because he had not the means at COM
mand to forestall the aims of Gen. Grant, or
control the disaffec,ed in our own ranks.
Bat whether he has sue ,eeded or not, Gov.
McEnery has entitled himself to the lasting
gratltui dc of our people as the front defender
Of their cause. He has done his whole duty
in this contest. aud this adds ! new and last
ing dignity to his character and his lite.

DARING ATTEMPT AT I'LL KGLARY-

CNmNNArL April "A daring but unsuc-

First National Bank, of CoviDgon Kentucky,
last night was discovered this morning. From
the appearance of the building the burglars
had been laboring some nights to accom- plish
their purpose, aud had spared no efforts CT
expense to secure SUCCESS
The work was busun by missing the floor
over the bank vault, cutting through various
thicknesses of cement, brick and iron, until
they reached the interior OF the vault, and
endeavored to open the safe therein by filing
the lock full Of powder and firing it. The
discharge only blew Of portion of the door

The contents OF tho safe were found intact,
except a few dollars in currency, which had
been consumed by powder. The burglars
left o complete set of tools behind them, val
ued at several hundred dollars, and carried
away nothing.
