ENGLISH COLO.fISYS.

ENGLISH COLO.vISTS.
A gentleman Informed us the other
day that he learned, from sources near
head quarters, that every acre Of Rail.
road land in Mobiles county had either
been sold or reserved for English, colo.
nists. If this is the case, we have no
doubt that the lands have been taken
by the Close Brothers, who have found
ed a successful English colony near Le-
mas. They have selected some $4,000
acres in Lyon county, Iowa. and will
start Il colony there during the coming
season. We also learn that they intend
locating several colonies in Minnesota,
and we know that they have long had
Mobiles and Jackson counties in view as
desirable points.
We hope the rumor is correct that the
lands have been selected III this coun.
ty, for the Close brothers are backed by
some $4,000, 900 of capital and are sure
to make success Of what they under
take. If a few hundred English fami.
lies should locate among us, we should
witness an impulse to business and to
improved methods Of farming which,
this county has never yet experience
ed.
We suppose that they will locate rs
nearly in a body as practicable and may
found a town of their own, possibly
across the lake or ut the Summit, and
wherever they do locate it we shall look
for 4 live town.

70 THE AkSTAKEz OF THE COUNCIL: s
BY the Council proceedings published
| i'll the ADVANCE week before last, it
was seen that u resolution was adopted
allowing druggists to sell liquors for le-
gitimate purposes But by I. singular
mistake they exempted malt liquors
from the grant. We notice that Lieut..
Plots and NJ. 5. Twitclell voted in ia
vor Of including malt liquors, while
the ether members voted against it.
We do not question the good inten-
tions of the Council in this, but we
are satisfied that they made a mistake.
Whether they intended this rs tub
thrown to the temperance whale, or,
rather, a sop thrown to the fanatical
Cerberus, we cannot say, but in any e.
vent, the act will not stand reflec-
ton.
1t is we'll known that no liquors are
more prescribed as tonic and medicine
than malt liquors. A number of the
temperance agitators, including men,
bers of the self-constituted temperance
committee, have for years been in the
habit of sending away and getting malt
liquors by the case for their wives and
families. There are many ladies in
Worthington, and men, too, for that
matter, who are benefited by the use
of ale or beer. and they should have the
privilege of buying it by the bottle
from Il druggist instead of being com.
PEELED to send away and order it by the
case.
Moreover, it is unjust to poor men
whose wives and families need it as
much us the wives and families of those
in better circumstances. The Council
virtually says to the poor man. If you
are not able to buy case at time, you
must s o without. Often poor men do
not need whole case, and many of
them can i'll afford to expend from So
to SIS at time to procure it. The effect
Of this action of the Council is to dis.
criminate against poor men, and in ia.
vor of those who are in better circum-
stances, and especially in favor of the
temperance extremists who get their
ale and beer by the case, and whose on
ly efforts so far h;sye been to keep one
class from selling and allow another
class to sell, and to keep poor men from
using it willie they send away on the sly
and have all they want.
We repeat that III our Judgment the
Council has made mistake, although
we know their intentions were good,
and we hope that they will see it III the
light Of the above suggestions, and rec
tify the error ut the next meeting.

There are some things about Heav-
en- that we like. They never get out
of kerosene, coffee, sugar, beer, or
other luxurics there, and help is plen-
ty. Food grows on the trees already
cooked, and th~re are plenty of hands
to help pick it. We have had our
eyes turned toward that country for
some time and we expect to be off as
soon as we can get through ticket
and a pass >ort.
The first freight tram in for eleven
weeks arrived at the depot on Sunday
last about noon. Five or six freights
passed during the day and about fifty
thousand pounds of freight were laid
on the depot platform. Ed. P..nelle

went to buying, believing that the OK

Tue MORNING STAR--At the invitation
of Capt. W. NJ. Surls, the genial mana
ger of the daily mail service between
Donaldsonville and Baton Rouge, we
visited. on last evening, the swift and
elegant propeller Morning Star, the
stauuch craft that has commenced since
Saturday to make regular trips between
the two mentioned points in connection
with the Morgan Railroad. The little
steamer Is a boHt 100 feet long ana bnilt
Of the strongest timbcrs, She has first
class machinery and her cabins for gen
tlcmen, at the bow, and the ladies at the
Stern is fitted up in palace car style, in
the most cosy and comfortable manner.
She is commanded by an experienced
and courteous officer Capt. II. w. Pen
uywtt, who assures us that his boat
will make time with perfect ease, as
she carries no freight. We are glad to
see SO convenient an enterprise to our
public, who, we're sure will find it most
advantageous in more ways than one to
patrOnize the Morning Star.

THE FERRY, LEAsE.--On yesterday,
according to notice, the ferry lease, for
five years, was offered to the highest
' bidder, at u o'clock NJ, when the May
or, finding that no representative of the
Police Jury of West Baton Rouge was
present, owing, it is to be supposed, to
tho inclemeney Of the weather, ordered
the sale to be postponed until Saturday
next, at IL o'clock NJ, This will be the
last opportunity offered to our mer-
chants and property holders to secure
cheap ferriage across the river Every
thing has been done to secure this de-
srable end Ivy the city authorities.
Those Interested will therefore, have
no one to blame but themselves if II
great portion of the trade of our sister
parish is lost to them. Unless something
is done by Saturday next, the ferry will
of course fall back in the groove which
has for so long been complained Of.

"a gross of socks to DARN we said
the other day, was the ultimatum which
a Baton Rouge bachelor was presenting
to the marrageabIe girls of this city.

lowing anonymous answer: 81 will
darn! the very idea Of having a gross of
socks to darn for the dear old bach !..-.
q, how delightful it would be. | would
think it the most pleasant employment

learn that there is, in Baton Rouge, one
maiden who is willing to make herself
useful rs well as ornamental, and we
promise her that if she'll make herself
known, the old bachelor in question
will marry her; if not, BY jiove, well do
It ourself, rather than let her go a-beg-

give five years lease at the old high
rates.

An Omen of Victory.
, rclrolenm Murld Hndl

From the Petroleum World Ond)
The nomination Of Orange Noble, of
Erie, for state treasurer by the demo
cratic state convention, which met in
Williamsport yesterday, is an unmiStaE-
able omen ot party victory in Noyem-
Der. Mr.. Noble is by all odds the
strongest candidate the democracy
could have named for the position. lie
is, first Of all, an honest, intelligent,
upright man. He is unidentified with
no ring, clique or faction, and will en-
ter the aace free from all Obligations
save those which true citizen ac-
knowledges to himsslf and the people
whom he represents.
He is an anti monopoly candidate,
and appears before the voters of the
state upon and Out-and-out anti-mon-
opoly platform. AS against Baily, Il
man whose record and platform pre-
sent no pledges against the monopo-
lies, the patriotic independent voter
will be prompt to express his preference
for Orange Noble.
The democrats Cf Pennsylvania
have done themselves proud. They
have taken long stride in advance of
Their republican brethren, and placed
themselves sQuarely upon record upon
tie only real question before the conn
try-that is, the people versus the
mouopoles The record and charac-
ter of The candidate are in full accord
with the platform on which he stands
The action of the Wiliiamsport con4
vention reduces the ensuing canvass to
a simple struggle between The mQnopo-
lies and the people, and the democracy
are on the right side.
Orange Noble will be the next state
treasurer OF PonusylYania-ma
that.
