Whenever a man inordinately de-
sires anything, he instantly loses inward
peace. The proud and eovetous are
never at rest, while the poor and lowly
in spirit pass their life in continual
peace. The man. who Is not yet per-
fectly dead to self is quickly tempted,
and overcome by small and trifiing
things.-7homas a ReDpis.

chum. He defined aesthesia as being
correct feeling-a compound OF natural
organization and inherited structure,
aided by science ana refined by poetry.
Alcohol was essentially an anae,thetic,
and in some forms was much used in
medicine. Beer was by no means an
alcoholic beverage merely, its main
influence as naracoti, being due to
the extract of hops it contained. Vi
all alcoholic beverages natural wine
was the most healthful it might pro-
duce intoxication, but never deliriuBl
tren'ens but, unhappiiy, many people
thought only of port and sherry when
the word wine was used, and these
wines Were much fortified by spirit.
Since the alterations i'm the excise
duties, however, there had been very
large increase IN the use of natural
wines. After desc, ibing the charaetei

mems of fossil vine from Southern
Germany, showing that it must have

lecturer referred to the ancient origin
of wine making. 1t was referred to by
Chinese writers as early as 100 b. G. He
alsoexhibited three great euriosities, porl
wine of 1850, bottle of sherry made

able of all, a bottle of excellent Italian
wine which conld be bought in London

State is Seaton G. Tinsley, Assistant
Treasurer of the City of Richmond. Here
is the result of his conference with Attor-
ney General Blair as to the course he
should pursue:
'RIcHMoND, Va, August q, 1885.
II have to state that have taken coupons Tor
license tax under an order of the United States
Circuit Court, dated Norfolk, February H. 1885, in
the case of Parsons Us Marye, and this after full
consultation and advice of the AttOrney-General.
lSignedl, IS G.. T1NsLEY,
Assist Treasurer City Richmond
The Republican Attorney. General who
ought to have been the guardian of the
Riddleberger bill advised the Demo-
cratic Treasurer to surrender and gave
up the cause. But, fortunately, there were
Democratic lawyers yet left IN the State.
The Democratic Commissioners of the
Sinking Fund took alarm at the surrender
of the Republican Attorney for
Judge Hughes order if not resisted would
have flooded the Treasury with coupons.
These Commissioners pledged their pri-
vate credit to obtain lawyer and engaged
Judge Waller r. Staples, who made up a
similar case to that decided by Judge
Hughes, and took it to the Supreme Court
of the United States. That Court reversed
Judge Hughes order at once. So much
for that case of loyalty on the part OF the
Attorney General to the Riddleberger
Bill,
