The Union DepOt-The Dram
shop Nuisance.


Ed. Register-
Travellers coming to st. Louis are
taken to the Union Depot and deposit
in front Of dramshop-ladies and all;
no respect is paid to age or sex, and all
have to endure it, whether agreeable
otherwise. I write not only in behalf
of myself, but every person of delicate
and refined feeling who is compelled to
make this resting place for a minut.
or an hour. Frequently we read and
hear of little affrays of one kind or an
other occurring at the Union Depot;
but this does not raise the condemna-
ton of the public against the dram
shop. If the railroad corporations re-
allied the situation, the sale Of intoxi-
eating liquors in that building would
certainly be prohibited; and from all
complaints, the travelling public would
almost be willing to make good to
them their loss. We want = place
where we can feel secure from any
insults, robberies, or even murders,
and we can never know when we are
secure and safe while dramshop is in
close proximity to US. Then it's q re-
Election, decidedly, upon the city of st.
Louis, which is noted throughout the
civilized world for being foremost in all
works of immortality. am no temper
ance fanatic, and am willing the man
ayers Of the dramshop should make
their living by selling whisky; but let
them remove their dramshop to the
very nearest point to the depot outside
Of it.
I hope other papers will take up the
subject; and if they do, soon this dram
shop maintained in the Union Depot
will be q thing of the past.

but between mineralogy and mstallur-
gy. All metals have enc base, and the
difference between metals arises from
the difference In substances combined

ing an ore in order to produce given
metal in q given condition, consists In
using as a fiux q combination of sub
stances which at . given degree Of heat
will, on the principle Of elective afYini-
ty, take to themselves everything in
that ore except the metal In . given

can only be accounted for by the fact
that there was In the flux small guam

nearer home: The Pilot Knob Iron Co.
deals largely in pig iron. when IL might
just as we'll deal In damask steel; bat it

been taken away; and In so doing, acts
like the man who scratched out his eyes
on Que bramble bush and scratched
them In again on another. A careful
study OF tho refuse material thrown
away at the Pilot Knob furnace has
fixed in the mind Of the writer the con-
viction that the Company il ballasting

work, it would cut wages down to
board and clothcs-and to corn-bread
and cottonade, at that. Much Of the
land is under mortgage to Eastern
capital" as it is called; but most Of this
capital comes from further east than Is
generally supposed.
Your correspondent is a land agent
for lands forfeited to one of these Fast
ern money-lenders, and knows some
thing about their way of doing busi-
ness, as bundle of letters in a pigeon
hole I'm front of him just now, will
abundantly prove. The other day, a
neighbor, who had been paying all the
profits of his farm for years to Eastern
capital, and then could not keep the
cormorant's mouth full, had occasion 10
make some change in his papers, and
incidentally discovered that his Eastern
master lived as far east as Scotland.
AS the farmer was native, and in-
tensely American, this did not suit
him; 30 he changes masters, and he
now belongs to an Englishman, who IS
intensely English, who delights in
damning the poor Irish, and who,
with tens of thousands at usury, neg
lects his own land; SO that, to-day, his
cattle, all skin and bone, are standing,
unsheltered, in q pasture SO short that
sheep would starve upon it. Money
is good enough thing in its place, hut
out of its place, and used as it is being
used here, it is the curse and bane of
society.
The writer of the article that ap-
peared in the REGISTER of the 18th
prox. may not be interested in reading
the above, but he is not the only read
er of the REGISTER. If he will be kind
enough to refer to the subject again be-
fore he gets rich, bilious and meat
axy, and elucidate that wonderful prin-
ciple that justifies making the law
favor the rich, will give him reason
for the faith in me without going to
any chair Drained foreign agitators''
for my cue, unless Greeley, Bayard,
Hewitt, the New York World, and
others, are such, and Holy Writ, hui
man experience and common sense are
manifest frauds and lies. This cry ol
Socialism, Communism, and Fourior-
ism is to thin now; the intelligent
world sees through it; it wont work.
For, after all, it is plain that "the man
who lives or gains by usury, furnishes
hell with more demoralized huma nifty
than he could by any other means"
Strong language is good in its place,
but unless the writer Of that article can
back it with sOunder reasoning and less
bluff, we would advise him not TO
write at all.
