A "sUPPLENENrARY" Temperance
bill has passed the Ssnate-but not the
House. Its object, Of course. Is to
remedy the defects Of the Temperance
law lately enacted. There Ii some
doubt of its passing the House. - the
Temperance leaders are fighting It with
the thought that any more legislation
this winter msy render what has al
ready been effected imperative.
Dissatisfied as many Of the temper
ance people are with their law, they
have no desire for further legislation
this winter. The Senate bill proposes
to amend, or take the place Of, section
10 Of the Temperance law, and Is Is
follows:
SIC. 10. All alcoholic, spirituous,
vinous, malt and fermented liquors,
and all bitters, cordials and medical
compounds of whatever name called,
to be used ~ Q beverage, shall be held
to be intoxicating liquors within the
meaning Of this act and the prOvis-
ions of this act shall not be construed
to prevent the use Of wine for sacra-
mental purposes by any religious de-
nomination, nor shall 1t be construed
SO ~ to prevent any physician from
administering to patient any medi-
cine in his opinion needful to such
patient, without making prescription
therefor. MOI to interfere with the sale
by druggists to physicians Of any med
icine recognized BY the different stand
ard pharmacopias or dispensatories.

THE passage Of the funding bill by

excitement caused thereby, which fol-
a spell was of considerable magnitude,

viction that the Government was fully

that might arise. The anxiety felt for
the brief period was soon over, and in
the satisfactory outcome at the very
inception of the new measure mani
tests the wisdom Of the Republican
party in its financial policy. Bring
