the cause of real temperance and the good order
of society demand such stringent and wise legis-
lation on this subject accords with the ex-
perience of the past and the practical and en-
iightened Judgment of good citizens, recognizing
The fact that all laws made for, and should be
adopted TO the wants of mankind, with all their
faults, faiings and appetites given them by their
creator.
In view of the result of the Gubernatorial cleo
ton in this State two years ago, and the present
dissatisfaction, ii is evident there can be no har-
mony or peace in the Republican party until this
question is settled and removed from politics, and
for that purpose We insist on q resubmissiOn Of

zens holding similar views and working fol-

I was talking last night with MI.

Philadelphia to New York. Think
the people there do not rush 80 hard
for the unnecessary and get more
tim and consideration out of life."
That feeling often returns to men
not sucked into the enguling bust
ness passions here. All these rich
men are warriors; every day is a bat
tie. In Willard fell a young Alexan-
der. In Gould young Hannibal rises
every hour and renews his war on
Rome. In every leader there is the
lnstintt OF wal, and why, therefore,
do we expect the soft-eyed arts and
steady literature to supercede the
multiplication table and the cosines
and degrees of bridges:

cynicism and whining. We are car

while taking all the animals of the

Let the arts be planted" and he

Tom Corwin undertook, when a

have a new law enacted a%bolishine

spoke at some length in support Of
his measure, and an elderly gentle
man, who represented a rural district
answered as follows: "Mr. Speaker,
the gentleman is not as old as I am,
and has not seen as much of the
practical operation Of the system of
punishment which he desires to
abolish. When [ lived In Connecti-
