PROHIBITION is not subject for
tears and sony, but for cool, deliberate
judgment. Experience teaches that
the road OF prohibition does not lead
to temperance Fourteen States have
tried it, and ten have abandoned the
law. Maine is the great exemplar of
Prohibition; and after thirty one years
what is the result? The report of the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue
shows that the retail liquor dealers
have increased more than one hundred
per cent. in the last four years; and an
immense public meeting was held last
week at Lewiston in that State, at
which it was resolved that intemper-
ance has increased tearfully, and de-
mand was made for the re-organiza.
ton of the police, in order to secure
the enforcement of the Neal Dow law.
The people, as we'll as members of the
Legislature could afford to study the
history of Prohibition before con.
founding it with Temperance.

Ellsworth, Of Port Even, Ulster county, N. Y, has
realized this truth His disease involved the whole

ward, not without apparent reason to death Us his
only deliverer. His family physician refused to am
putate the lmb-asserting that the operation would
kill the patient on the spot. DR.. David Kennedy Of
Rondout, N. Y, who was consulted, held different
opinion, and amputated the limb. The Doctor then
administered freely his great Blood Specific FAVOR

system, prevent the return Of the disease, and Mr.
Ellsworth remains to this day in the bloom ofhealh

OUR NEW YORK LETTER.
From our 0Un Correspondent.

New YORK, February S.
Calamity has followed the Inman
line of steamers. With the City of
Brussels lost they hired the staunch
liner, the Egypt, the Commodore'a
vessel of the National lime, to fill the
vacancy, that successful line being
willing, for consideration, to stop
the gap, and then they succeeded in
setting fire to the Egypt and to their
pier. Over two million dollars were
swept away like flash, but the Egypt
lost nothing but her running rigging
and sails, though sheet of fame from
stem to stern, as she was towed out in
to mid stream, lighting the Hudson
river for miles with the majestic dis
play. Here came in her beauties of
her construction and right under our
noses proved what we have several
times had occasion to refer to the
guarantee of safety enjoyed by all who
trust this National Line for freight
or passage. No fimsy bulkheads gave
way and let her to the bottom like an
old pot with hole in it. Not much

Lightning in January played some

"WHEN a man can vote and refuses,
the sooner Le is poll-taxed out of the
country the better. He has no just
apprehension of the duties and re-
sponsibilities of citizen of a republi-
can government. 1t is duty which
no citizen can slight. and the man
who sneers at the ballot should at
once seek country where ballots are
not in demand" The above is taken
from the Chicago Inter. Ocean, and is
so applicable to this as we'll as all
counties, that we scisored it and re.
produce it in our columns. Hundreds
and hundreds of Democrats in Henry
county, who are legal voters, do not
take advantage of the suffrages Of the
ballot, through neglect or apathy, or
business and other matters. This
should not be. 1t Is duty every man
owes to himself, his country and the
party with which he affiliates, to de-
posit his ballot in the box upon elec-
tion day.

IT must certainly be potent to every
mind having the welfare of Napoleon
at heart, ana a desire too see it grow
in population and wealth, that our
present high rate OF taxation is keep
ing away or driving out capital from
our midst. Napoleon has all the re-
quisites for becoming community OF
ten thousand souls; rich country all
around US. populated with frugal
and industrious people, and with a
little common sense and good judg-
ment upon the part of those ruling
and Of influence, that high end will be
reached. Economy should be the
watchword. Our improvements are
far ahead of the country and our
neighbors, and it would be wise to lay
back upon our oars, reduce the tax
levy. and reap the benefits OF having
capital seek investments in our midst.
Will it, can it. be done?

THOMAS JEFFERSON once said that
there are two classes of political think.
ers: the one pretending to fear the in
telligence and distrust the patriotism
of the people, would grasp all possible
power, and centralize it in a general
government; the other conides in the
people, and believes them to have the
virtues and capacities of self and State
Government, and would make them
the depository of power instead of the
party leaders. The same classes exist
now, and Thomas Jefferson, eighty
years ago, faithfully described the
leading parties of to-day.

According to the Panama Star and
Herald, two vessels have narrowly es-
capped destruction by meteors. One was
the steamship Lima of the Pacific Steam
Navigation Company, and the other was
the United States man-of-war Alaska.
A meteor which plunged into the ocean
close by the last named ship just after
sunset on December 10 is said to have ter
riied everybody on board by exploding
with great noise and a burst OF flame
just before it struck the water. This ia
not the first time that meteors have fallen
near ships and there is nothing impossi
BILE in the suggestion that vessels may
have been sunk by them. Meteoric
stones have fallen on land which were
heavy enough, and endowed with suffi
cient velocity, to knock a hole through
any ship. Within the last forty years
more than twenty vessels have disap-
peared at sea. How many of them may
possibly have been struck and sunk by
these flying missiles from the sky. some
of which follow in fiocks in the tracks of
comets. while others are lone wanderers
in space until thev fall within the earth's
attraction, and plunge through her at
mosphere with planetary speed. No one
can tell.
