Temperance News and Notes.

The temperance people of the ma
ton ask that the United States
laws that give rum-sellers the priv
llege of killing the men, women
and children Of our country be re-
pealed. They ask that the laws
shall unmask the sin, for it is sin
in the sight of God. They plead
for blood, for life. Slavery asked
protection-it meant extension.
So, now, the liquor interests want
protection; )" it means extension.
But God means extinction, and it
will come in Gods own good time.

The Work of Revising the Code

The several gentlemen compos-
ing the committee appointed for
this purpose by the Legislature last
winter, have faithfully discharged
the duty imposed upon them.
Whilst they have worked rapidly,
they have worked well, and the
vast improvement made upon the
code will be observed with satisfac-
ton. Senator Dennis, Chairman
of the Committee, informs us that
the entire civil code has been re-
vised. The committee has collect
ed the law, as scattered under the
various acts, into chapters cores
ronding with the chapters of the
code, so that the law on any one
subject can be found under it's prop
er head, and in single chapters Of
the code. The criminal law, in the
opinion of the Committee, needs
but little change, and these few
changes will be made in time for
the Legislature. Border Watchnaan.

exact details of the great disaster.
1t is estimated that 1880 square
miles were burned over causing a
loss which is put at s2,346,000. But
these figures convey no idea of the
disaster. Such a loss in money val
ne would be hardly more than a
two days wonder in large city.
In the case of the people of Michi-

her in her yellow fever affection,

surgical attendance, will aggregate
s250,000 and possibly 100000.
Baltimore papers, now that the
Oriole is over, are chuckling over
the amount of money the festival
brought to the city. The estimate
is placed at S650,000 net.

100000 extra newspapers, all
over the country, their selling value
being 81, 100000.

An earnest. christian lady began a

England. An earnest, christian lady began series of experiments with view to simplify ing. the study of music for children, and in 1835 published book entitled ''Scheme for. rendering psa'mody congregational. In 1S40 g young Congregational minister visited the schools where the scheme had been taught and was impressed with the advantages of the new method. He tested the new method in classes, schools and congregation. Others began also to use it and all were surpris- ed and delighted with the results. Annual conversations of the Sol-Fa teachers were held and improvements were suggested and adopted till it was settled that the singers de. vice first adopted for helping children in char ity schools tossing, contained the germ of com
 plete system as perfectly suited to the higher walks of the art or to the first steps. In England the system has won the field. The London Times says ''it is the only national and popular system of teaching music worthy the name.' The London Telegraph says, it's friends ''have their own college for higher culture, their own hon0rs and best of all their teachers may be found doing useful work not only in every town, but in well-nigh every village in the land" Instruction books for the organ, piano forte, and various other in struments are printed in the system as we'll as a-vast amount of easy and popular music for learners. It is a success. It is a marvel. There is no longer any good excuse for any one's being unable to read and master any or dinary music. Mir. Theodore F. Seward. of Orange, N. r., seems to be pioneer in this country in the matter and has prepared the Tonic Sol-Fa music Reader. Mrs Churchill has reviewed and highly commended the book in one of the New York Papers After few moments brief and clear explanation of the system (which we know too much or too little to attempt to repeat) she made some experi. ments with her audience on Friday evening and the results were astonishing. And now having trespassed too much upon you space, MT. Editor, allow me to suggest that you can render no better service to the county and the country than to convince your readers as we are sure you easily could that this new sys
 tenn should be introduced everywhere, especi- ally into our public schools, Its simplicity IS it's credentials It has been introduced into Madagascar, Beyrout. Hong Kong, South Africa, Bombay, Spain, Japan, Chil. &c, Sc. It can be mastered by child. If you do not tell your readers of it's advantages perhaps in another paper we will. CAPTIvATED.

WASHINGTON,

Probably All Fools Day was never more pleasantly observed than at the new hall, by the Gunnery people, this year. Nearly every member of the school took some part in the exercises in the afternoon. but the recitation of the Bells of Enderby. by Ada Colton, of Warren, gave the most satisfaction. The pathos started many tear, but she won uni versal admiration, acquitting herself, not only well in that, but in the drama that preceded it. The concert recitation by twelve little boys was very we'll given. showing careful and laborious training by the manager Mrs. John Brinsmade.
 The question, ''Shall our Mothers Vote ?" discussed by the debating club, was ably and funnily argued, and the knowledge we there by gained of parliamentary usages was consid- erable. ''Banks and Prizes" was we'll played and very amusing. In the evening ''The Freedom of the Press' was the play. and those who had the pleasure of attending re- ported success. s. Ford Seeley was especi- ally commended for his spirited and natural acting.
 The usual reception recreation, dancing. closed the entertainment; and, on Saturday, many of the pupils left for home, though the vacation was to be SO short that about dozen boys decided to spend it in Washington.
