You shelter seek. and food. ~
If there temptation assail you 50

You'll save my third hundred times,
And a thousand ills defy.

With deeds of darkest stain
By fools with brains rum-muddled,
My whoze you will remain.

Constitution which he had quoted. Smith
intimated that 1t was Q pretty "hoWdy.do"
II they didn't, and cited the name Of
Waitnan T. Wiley as among the slgnerB.
He rather thought they knew what they
wanted. When, therefore, he changed
his base on the question, and proposed to
amend the amendment, and exempt
wine and malt liquors, Faulkner came
back on him to inquire by what authority
and excuse he proposed to ignore the
Language OF the petitioners and substitute
something else. He held him on this
point quite exultingly for some time and
worried the Senator from Marion not q
little. Mr.. Smith finally got out Of 1t by
proposing to submit 0 double-headed
amendment-one total in its character,
and the other exempting wine and malt
drinks. This latter was as far as he was
prepared to go. He aimed at something
practical, and cited the example Of Europe
as showing that the people must have
light drinks, and II light drinks were fur.
nished them they would be content and
would not get drunk. Here again Faulk-
ner came back at him with the remark
that light drinks did not prevent drunk
enness, as he knew by personal obserya.
ton in Europe.
Senator Smith continued his argument
by discussing the assertion Of Mr.. Faulk-
ner that prohibition does not prohibit,
He confessed that he did not expect pro-
hlbition to prohibit in this or any other
State, but that was no argument against
1t. The Christian religion had not effect
ed It's object; 1t did not drive away sin,
but 1t had greatly mihgated the wicked.
ness OF the world. And 80 prohibition,
while 1t had not extirpated the miserles
and woes OF liquor, had performed
great mission, and would perform q still
greater mission In the future. He believed
In moral suasion, but he believed also in
restriction. The two must go hand in
hand.
This is q sample OF tho matter and man
ner OF the debate yesterday on the pro.
posed amendment. The subject comes up
again as unfinished business at the morn.
Ing session to-day, II seems to be gener-
ally understood that the amendment In Its
present. shape cannot get the necessary
votes in the Senate.

WASHINGTON, February l5.-The retiring

them now will know them no more. It is
noted in the annals o the Senate that not

ever afterwards gets back. There have
been occasional instances, but they are
very rare. Ita Senator after having sery.

place In the Senate eighteen days hence,

Among the others who go, and who are
useful men In their party, but not leaders,
may be mentioned Bailey, MCPHERSON,
Hereford and Herman. Next TO the four

a leader, but he is very active in the per.
