Rum IN the Constitution.

NcW IOFk CuH.
Nothing is more certain han hat the
prohibitory laws of Maine have had The
fairest sort Of trial, under the most favora'
BILE circumstances. Statistics do not show
that they have accomplished what the
friends oil temperance hoped from them.
The prohibltory system has not stopped the
sale OF liquor in Maine; it has not put an
end to drunkenness; it has not diminished
crime. But the advocates Of the system
maintain that it is 81 ccessful. on the whole
that it works about as we'll as any system
can that is the creation Of human fallibil'
ity.
We learn with surprise that the Maine
prohibitionists-who have procured from
successive Legislatures nearly everything
they have asked, short of Liquidation actu'
ally making q crime Of the act OF dfinkinG
now propose to incorporate prohibition
in the State Constitution by amendment:
If prohibition by statute has worked well
in Maine during the past thirty years, what
is to be gained now by putting it into the
Constitution?
If prohibition by statute has not worked
well, if it has proved a practical failure,
how will it help matters to put it into the
Constitution?
Is it because those prohibitiOnists in
Maine who are prohibitionists through
thick and thin, who will be prohibitionists
in the face OF demonstrated failure, see the
time approaching when the general senti'
ment of the State will no longer allow the
prohibitory statutes to stand? 1t is very
much harder to get rid of u constitutional
provision than to repeal a statute.

MIR. Il. ILL.

We are panied to announce the prob.
ably fatal illness of one of the most es-
teemed citizens of Wheeling, who, be-
fore we go to press, will probably have
passed the dark portals of the dark val
ley and shadow of death. We refer to
Mr.. l.. II. WILLIAMS, of the Franklin
Insurance Company. We would fain
hope that his friends and physician
might be mistaken in their Judgment
of his near approach to death, and that
his long and useful life might yet be
lengthed out to his family and host OF
friends, but at this writing we learn
there is no hope.
Mr.. WILLIAMS has stood before the
people of this city for many years as a
model of. Christian manhood. There
is probably no one of his acquaintance
who does not respect and love him.
He was incapable of an unmanly ac-
ton and none, perhaps, has ever
charged him with an unchristian act.
lie was ever cheerful, generous, sympa-
thetic, charitable and kind in all his as
sOciatiOns. There is no II whs ever
knew him but will miss him when the
grave has claimed him.

To Our READERS: Please excuse US
from discussing tine prohibitory amend
ment. People differ so about it. We
are anxious to secure the friendship OF
both sides. And if we take sides with
prohibitionists the other fellows will
cut Us, and il We take sides with the
anti pIohibitioRists the temperance peO-
pie will cut Us. So you see that We are
between the Devil and the deep sea.
We think the best policy is to keep
quiet. If we said anything we would
have to take sides, or they would accuse
us of carrying water on both shoulders.
We have therefore determined to main
tain a mastery silence until the Legis-
lature settles the question, and then We
will come smilingly in with al endorse
ment or a condemnation justasthe pub
lie seems to take it. We sincerely hope
they will get done with it soon, and let
us all off of the ragged edge.
Very Respectfully,
THE WHEELING ISTELLIGENgER.

PROFESSOR WIGGINs, the Canadian
prophet, who has consigned the whole
Atlantic coast to sweeping disaster In
March, has given the world q token by
which to Judge Of his prophetic capaci-
ty. Claiming to have made n the 10th
of last October q definite prediction OF
the storm of January 10, he now fixes
on February 8 as the date Of another
heavy gale. If chance should favor
him to the extent Of sending along a
storm on that day there will be a good
many people who will keepunder cover
during the month of March. Mr.. Wig
GINS has shown a p~raiseworthy self
confidence in fixing his dates exactly,
and in this respect he is vastly superior
to the VENNoRs and DE VoEs, who
cling to glittering generalities. If his
storm arrives on time next Friday he
will get great credit, but if it does not
II is to be feared that Mr.. VIRGINS,
like the others, will have some weak
explanations of his failure.

AmENnE

The Senate has agreed, in executive
session, to request the Governor to re-
nominate Major f.. A. BENNETT for the
Board of Regents of the University, for
which position the Senate declined to
confirm him a few days ago.
In making this request they indicate
their desire and intention of reconsider
ing and confirming the nomination ;
otherwise, of course, they would not
make the request. 1t was not in the
power of the Governor TO reuominate
Mr.. BENNETT without being so re-
quested by the Senate, and that body
has taken the only that was
open to them for reconsideri1g their
former action.
In this act the Senate is doing a SIM
pie act of justice to Major Bennett.
His rejection for the position was,
doubtless, a very notifying infliction
to him, as it would be to any sensitive
man. II he had been seeking the posi-
ton; if it had not been a salaried office
for which men were accustomed to COM
pete; or if he had not already occupied
the position under the approval of a
former Senate, aud without any blame
or charge of malteasance with respect
To his duties, his rejection would
not have conveyed the idea
of a personal a%fiIont, as it
seemed to do. There was no accusation
of upfitness either in point of character,
conduct, or ability. Governor JACK
son had made the nomination after due
deliberation and with such acquaintance
as precluded the conclusion that he did
it by mistake or was misled by any mis-
taken influences or information in
making it. We are glad that upon
second thought the Senate has conclud-
ed to retraee this step and do justice to
the reputation and standing of a gentle
man who, is regarded a altogether
worthy of the position for which he was
named.
