An analysis Of one hundred and nine
teen separate samples Of ale aud porter
sold over the counter by publicans in
v%arious parts of London shows such 8

that a person who drinks two quarts of
fourpenny ale or porter consumes more
alcohol than is contained in half a pint
OF brandy or whisky. This will, no
doubt astonish q good many people who
are apt to think a couple Of quarts Of
ale a day quite q moderate allowance,

they own their souls. Sometime lately

RADICAL LOGIC.

According to the logic Of Barbour
Lewis and other League men the hang
ing of Calvin and Moody, in August,
1870, was a murder and their blood rested
On the head Of Judge Hudson, q Repub'
lieAn, who dealt out justice feaFlsssly,
But no Democrat was ever found SO base
a. to hold Judge Hudson personally re.
sponsible of the bench for the discharge
OF his duty on it under oath. 1t has
been reserved for Barbour Lewis to
shock all sense Of propriety and de-
osney by seeking to inaAms the passions
Of an ignorant class Of people against
ajadge for passing sentence on a mar
found guilty Of cold.blooded murder.
Barbour has no tears to shed over the
poor old colored man who was
waylaid on Wolf river bridge
and shot down without mercy. Had the
murderer been q white man, Lewis would
~ that It was another Democratic
murder. The witnesses we're all colored
men, and the prosecution was urged by
eOlored people, and Scott had a fair trial.
this execution was just, although be
Stated under the gallows that he val
convicted by false swearing. 1t so, Il
vas done by the colored witnesses, and
not BY Judge Flippin. The infamous
assertions made BY Barbour Lewis have
been hurled back with the lie in his
teeth. He only smiles like Mr.. Csrker,
in "Dombey 4 Son" Devoid Of shame
and principle hs would as soon be called
knavs as a gentleman. The people
will resent this insult and repu.
date Barbour Lewis aud all bis
followers at tie ballOt-bOx tomorrow.
Hundreds Of eolored men will assert
their independence aud sense BY vo,ing
boldly for Judge Flippin, aud viii be pro
tected from bullies in so doing now and
in future. Many Of the POll-BearOrI
Gill vote for him, and many other col
