John Bulls Liauor Bill.

MT. John Bull maintains his reputa- tlon as 8 steady, reliable drinker. Dur. ing the year just closed his little ac. count for beer, whisky and wines was $635, 372, 300. In 1880 it was 8 triAe less. This is what is called moderate drinking in the United Kingdom. The gentleman who has compiled these figures for the London Tunes. from whose columns we have taken them. deplores the evils of intoxication among his countrymen, and he points out. in order to explain the significance of his statistics, that in the last ten years thev nave spent in liquors sum nearly euual to twice their national debt, or. in round figures, over seven thousand mil lion dollars. Placing the liquor con. sumption in a still more gloomy set ung, he shows that the expenditure is more than the annual rental of all the lands and houses in the kingdom. Our London contemporary, in commenting on the subject, instead of sharing in the rueful apprehensions of the British Neal Dow, takes cheerful view of the question. It sees no ground for regret or dismay. If the British people. it says, can afford to spend all this money Tn this way it only shows how rich and prosperous they are.-Nsw York Her. aLd.

Don't Whine.

Don't be whining about not having q fair chance. Throw sensible man ont of a window and he'll fall on his feet and ask the nearest way to his work. The more you have to begin with the less you will have in the end. Money you can earn yourself is much brighter than any you can get out of dead mems bags. A scant breakfast in the morning of life whets the appetite for feast later in the day. He who has tasted a sour apple will have more relish for a sweet one. Your present want will make future prosperity all the sweeter. Eighteen pence has set up many a ped. dler in business, and he has turned it over until he has kept his carriage. As for the place you are cast in, don't find fault with that; you need not be horse because you were born in a stable. If bull tossed man of metal sky. high he would drop down into good place. A hard-working young'man with his wits about him will make money while others will do nothing but lose it,

A Sickening Story.

The trial of Judge B. St. Julien Cox,
 of the Ninth Judicial District of Minne-
 sota, by the Senate of that State, has
 ended in hls election from the bench as
 drunkard. Impeached by the House
 last fall, he has been under trial for
 more than two months; and the ups
 and downs of his career, now in the gut.
 ter and now on the bench, form a queer story. A rollicking, popular politician,
 always free and easy with everybody.
 and ready-witted lawyer, he became a favorite in the part of Minnesota where he fiourished, and was elected 6 Judge in 1876 for seven years. He kept up his bacchanalian habits after his eleva. tlon to the bench, and this debauched magistrate could be found by day tip ping in rum shops, and sometimes at night in notorious houses. When he no longer timed his toping seasons to his duties in court, but was fuddled on the bence, 1t was determined to put an end to his judicial career. Twenty charges were brought against him but the last two, relating to lewdness, were dropped for various reasons. The first seventeen charges specified cases of drunkenness during court terms, and the eighteenth alleged habitual intoxication. A St. Paul dispatch gives this summary of the evidence.
 It reveals Cox in all conceivable forms of intoxication, riot and debauch. cry. One class of witnesses desoriba hlm drunk in the courtroom. m. washed, blear-eyed, thick of speech. and muddy of thought, maunderinp, bullying witnesses and lawyers, and making the transaction of business im- possible. On several occasions inc court was adjourned to give him time to recover. Some of his official perform. ances were most grotesque. Another witness describes @ case in Lyons County in which Judge Cox held court in saloon to issue naturalization pa. pers, and demanded that the newly made citizen should treat before he would sign the papers. It seems to have been the regular practice for Court. bar. jury, witnesses and spectators to get drunk nightly, and the witnesses testi. fled that Cox never passed the bottle. One witness wanted to describe a scene where the rest of the party rolled the fuddleo Judge over on his back and played cards upon his judicial abdomen. but the matter was ruled out. The most prominent lawyer in the district, Judge Severance, swore to picking Cox out of gutter in an alley, cleaning him off, and taking him to waiting courtroom. Some of the most fragrant testimony taken by the committee was excluded rom the Senate by the striking out of the nineteenth and twentieth articles"
