low doggeries." They are in full eper-
alton all over the state and ever will be
on his theories. But if not, such dog
geries are the least tempting and PERM
cious OF all liquor shops. The lower
the letter. And it is not true that the
thirst for liquor is natural appetite !;
nor does demand justify the right OF sup
ply. Does the demand for children to
throw into the Ganges, or for slaves on
the coast of Africa, justify the supply?
But it is useless to pursue this absurd
folly farther. The liquor traffic is Grim
inal, and Common Sense contesses it
all through his article. The license law
which he defends implies it. for the state
cannot tax property unequally except as
a penalty. Whatever municipal law may
do, state law cannot impose licenses up.
on innocent trade for selling boots
and hats. And every appeal for this
asylum confesses it to his face. The
whole guilty business is redolent with
human woe. It is crime, enormous
crime, duplicating all its accessories and
defenders. We barely suggest to Com
mon Sense" to put an interrogation to
his name hereafter.
Should it be agreeable to the editor to
insert the demanded "proot" of the
criminality of the liquor trade. it will be
furnished.

said at Dallas the other day: s'Taxation has
been reduced from $3.50 to so cents on
500, and done, too, while 100000 in :
terest on the public debt was being paid. In
his message to the.twelfth legislature. Davis
announced that Texas is free from debt,
and has 100000 in the treasury and the
journals of that body will show that the
statement was correct. This was at the be
ginning of radical rule. When he and his
fellows went out of office the treasury was
empty, and four and half millions of dol
lars worse than empty. And this enormous
debt was contracted while the people were
paying FIVE times as much taxes as are now
levied -

frost during the cold weather is done
away with, if the inclosed air is dry.
Some time ago we communicated a
suggestion, made by some builder, to in
sert two panes of glass, one on the out
side and one on the inside of the same
frame, having rabbets on both sides;
this may do for economy, but IS subject
to the objection that the inside cannot
be cleaned without taking the glass out,
and the fact is that in the course of time
it will in some way or other get into
such a condition as to need cleaning;
then, when the glasses are SO close to-
gether, the protection against the outer
cold is less effective than il greater
mass of air is included.
In very cold countries, like Russia,
Sweden, or Canada, the need of such
protection is more felt than with us but
even here it is often adopted in exposed
localities when the parties can afford
the luxury. Thus all the houses on
Brooklyn Heights, enjoying the magnit-
icent view OF New York harbor, and
those on Washington Heights enjoying
the view of the Hudson River and the
Palisades, are fully exposed to the strong
and cold blasts of the northwest winter
winds, and are all provided at the west
and north sides with double windows,
the absolute necessity Of which has be-
come more and more evident for the
comfort of the inmates. Such double
window may serve another purpose, and
be used as little greenhouse when ex-
posed to the sun, the solar heat is stored
up in them, and in France some persons
grow different plants and even grapes in
them in winter.

a sPlRlTUALlSTiC EXPOSURE

There has been another exposure OF
Spiyltualism in Memphis, at one OF Mrs.
Millers seanees. The Appeal says ::
"Dr. Watson asked the spirit to come
out on the platform. take a chair and
effect. The spirit hesitated a little but
finally came out from the curtain and at
vanced to take 4 seat in the chair, when.
At given signal. two of the young men
rushed upon the stage, seized the white
object around the waist. while another
one OF the party. armed with tin box
filed with cotton and turpentine. sprung
a bright light. which revealed to the as
tonished gaze of every one present Mrs.
Miller, with her top dress turned over
her mead SO as TO expose her white spir-
itual apparel, in which condition che was
held by the young man. while she was
making desperate efforts to pull down
her dress, and at the same time shove
her wrists into the cords which had con
fined them together. 1t appears tina

dark-colored overdreSs. when making
her sp ritual displays. raises these top

that Mrs. Miller could not possibly per-

MIR. Miller to put her tormentors out, but
they had not come there to be put out
and refused to submit TO the delicate
operation. at least by Mr.. Miller or his
associates in the fraud"
