perance agitators have failed, and liquor is

ment, but in the face Of law itself Absolute
prohibition having failed to so large an ex-
tent, sentiment il now settling down toward
trying the effects Of northumberland at
tempting to reduce 10 the smallest possible
amount an evil that cannot be interdicted
altogether. This is to be sought by restrict

that the liquor sellers themselves shall
fix the price Of them; the houses
to be subject to strict regulations
as the quality Of the articles
they sell, the hours when they can keep
open, and as to the good order that is to pre-
vail, and az to the exclusion of minors and
intoxicated persons; the owners OF the
licenses to be afforded every facility the law
and the police can supply 10 detect, convict,
and punish all persons selling or giving
away liquors without license. Such a law
is less harsh than those that have been tried,
as it does not forbid the sale of liquor; it is
more harsh as it provides for the carrying
out its own provisions, by making it power
fully to the interest of the licensed sellers to
prevent any breach of the law by unlicensed
selling. Such are the provisions that are
coming into favor among people who wish
to diminish the horrible evils that now arise
from indiscriminate liquor selling; when it
comes into practice it will be seen whether
it prove more effective than the prohibitive
system. In Sweden and Norway, where this
plan has been in operation some years, it
gives decided satisfaction, and has had a
strongly repressive influence, restraining ex-
cess in drinking, and has greatly decreased
the class Of offenses to which liquor drink
ing most commonly conduces.

THE LAST STRAW.
The Overflow on iha Arkansas Side of
the neutrality-suspicious. for p Levee
Convention at II eler q.

To the Editors of the Appeal:
WEsTovER, ARK, June Some time
since l wrote you that we farmers in this
bend of the river would pick our flints" and
try it again when the water fell. This last
rise is "the straw that is likely TO break the
backbone. This bend, from Helena to Old
Town Ridge down TO Old Town Landing, a
distance of twenty miles in length and from
six TO ten miles in width, contains some OF
the finest plantations and the finest bodies of
land on the Mississippi river, producing an
nu lily from 5000 10 10000 bales of cotton.
The break in the levee Just below Helena
lets the water IN at the head, so to speak,
which fills up to aleyel, or even higher than
the level of the river. In consequence of
the outlets being less than the inflow
with the present stage of water, nine-tsnths
of the 'beud" is under water, and the plan
tations being abandoned or given up.
To plant crop late in the season with the
leyees down would be as hazardous as deal
ing in futures or lotteries. Olly those who
have other resources for a living can stand
it as everything we have done for the past
six months has been lost. The poor laborer
who has chung TO his home here with
allured hope from time to time, has given
mn. and can daily be seen with his little all
in a dugout or skif crossing the river to
Mississippi, the more fortunate side, in search
of employment to keep himself and family
from starving. The question now IL, what
are we going to do? The planter or land
owner has advanced to his laborers or hands
on the place supplies, in expectation OF the
river falling in time 10 make 4 crop,
until he is in debt and is unable
to rebuild or put up the breaks
in the levees The State cannot do it,
or won't; it has not paid for work already
done. as some of the proPerty-holders here
ran attest While a portion of the State OF
Mississippi is soon TO meet at Greenville to
adopt measures to remedy the existing evils,
l see no movement on the Arkansas side.
Why not have a similar meeting soon at
Helena, and send strong delegation and lay
our troubles before Congress before that body
adjourna, and implore aid? Judge Maugum's
letter to Governor Churchill was directly
to the point We have the labor and it can
be utilized in rebuilding our levees.

BUTTONS IN FRANCE.

lOIIOAb In EhAhSE-
1t is gratifying to learn that, spite of con-
quest in Tunis and dispute in Egypt, France
is making steady and intelligent forward
steps on the way toward establishing and
perpetuating a genuine republican govern
ment. France has been a monarchical
country for centuries, and the manner of
conducting public affairs is permeated with
monarchical arbitrariness, and its native
spirit and foundation are imbedded and sat-
uTated with the influences OF the past. To
remove, and change, and renovate becomes
a necessary work now freedom rules the
ing the subjects of the government, are the
source and constitutors OF the government.
To change not only the form but the very
essence and spirit of past institutions, is no
easy or simple task, and in the previous
ephemeral republics France has seen, there
quiet to allow of the important work of
basing the institutions, laws, practices and
principles of the government upon re-
publican foundations. Consequently those
republics were never consolidated go
as TO become controlling and reg
ulstive powers. The name and the
surface was republican, the basis and the
substance were the old monarchical princi-
piles. 1t is upon the necessary, but often
delicate changes that have to be made, that

are the subjects requiring their attention
that the changes proposed, during one session
OF the lower House, when published in close
print by Paris paper three weeks ago, filled
four of its columns The concordat with the
Pope, relations of the State with the church.
the manner OF taking the oath, the project of
selling the crown jewels and deyoting the
money TO education, changes in the judiciary
and in legal proceedings, are among the sub
jects under consideration. The method of
criminal proceeding in France is especially
bad and unjust to the accused who is treated
as guilty until he is proved innocent, and
who is questioned and examined by the
magistrate with inquisitorial scrutiny, and
without being allowed counsel. These relics
of ieudal times and Bourbon tyranny are to
be done away with, and the very tenure OF
the magistrates authority is to be changed.
The whole criminal code is TO be examined
into, an herculean work. The whole scope
of the various reforms is to give to every
French citizen degree of personal liberty,
such as he has never before possessed, but
such as, when secured, will be the strongest
of all bulwarks IN defense of the republic
and its mightiest support, because it secures
the personal interests of the citizens in its

WASHINGTON, June 9.-In the Criminal
Court this morning the government called
Ex-Attorney- General MacVeagh the FIRST
witness in the Star-route cases. MacVeagh
testified that he had a conversation with
Reardell in June, 1881. Merrick asked the
witness to give the details of the entire con-
versation, to the best OF his recollection.
This was objected to, on the ground that the
witness must give the date os the interview
TO make it competent evidence, and for
other reasons. After argument, Judge Wylie
decided that the evidence was not admissible
at this stage of the trial, and Mr.. MacVeagh
was excused.
Several other witnesses were examined, but
nothing important developed.

The Congressional Contests in all the

The local contests in the several States
will have special interest in all parts of
the country, because twenty-six United
States senator's are to be elected, and there is
chance for the Democratic party to recover
its lost majority in the House of Represent
atives. The New Orleans PieGytfne has pre-
sented some figures under this head that will
prove OF interest. The next Congress will
contain 325 Representatives. Oregon has
elected a Republican. A majority Of the
House will be los. The reapportionment OF
the several States whose districts have been
readjusted has been effected with greater
care than was ever before known in this
country. In most cases there is not parti-
Gle of doubt that the delegation will stand

practical consideration, therefore, the follow
