MIR EDITOR. In recent Enquirer, "Rho" asks, whether Admitting the right to refuse license, is it erpedient to do so, and whether ''the stopping of licenses stops the drinking of liquor? We refer him to Maine-and Vine- land, New Jersey, where many men of intem- peTate habits who have remained there were made useful, temperate, ctizens-onlv because 1t was not convenient to get intoxicating q drinks, and temptation was not in their way.
 He says certain town voted mo Incense" and those who could afford it laid in a years supply. We had in our mind a generally worthy citizen of this town who like s'Rho" was opposed to any action on temperance who "laid in a yeais supply" and who lived to see two sons fill drunkard's graves. I do not think that the State ought to take money for granting license to do great wrong the State has empowered towns to refuse license let us try it, one yeaE >a' ',. s'''.i j.

At this point the plaintiff discovered that the claim of damages had been omitted from his writ. Believing the mistake to be fatal and the writ unamendable, he moved to erase the case from the docket, and, the next day, brought new suit against Lyon for. the same cause of action. The plaintiff pleaded in abatement the pehdency of the former suit, and that case came up to Superior Court by appeal of the plaintiff. Decision was rendered, Thursday morning, erasing the first case from the docket, and overrulng the plea of abatement in the second case Hickox. for plf, Moore, ordeft.a

the middle of November, that is after

days it thickens in the furrow down

Cor worm) shape, or commonly assum.
ing the form Of oval or round tears,
about the size of pigeons egg Of
different colors, as they belong to the
red or white gum tree. About the
middle of December the Moors encamp
on tho borders Of the forest and the
harvest last six weeks. The gum is
packed ia very large sacks Of leather,
and brought on the backs Of bulIocks
and camels to certain ports, where
ii is sold to English and French mer-
chants. The gum is highly nutritious.
During the whole time Of harvest, Of
the journey to the ports, the Moors Of
the desert live almost entirely upon it,
and experience has proved that six
ounces of gum are sufficient for the
support of a man for twenty-four
hours.
