The Evils Of Beer Drinking.

The Pacifc uedicai journal says: a
whisky drinker will commit murder only
under the direct excitement Of liquor a
beer drinker i capable Of DONG it III cold
blood. Long observation has assured Us that
a large proportion OF murders, deliberately
planned and executed without passion or
malice, with no other motive than the
acquisition Of property Or money, often of
trihlng value, are perpetrated by beer
drinkers.
We believe, further that tie hereditary
evils of beer drinking exceed those pro
ceeding from ardent spirits; first, because
the habit i constant and without parox-
ysmal interruptions, which admit of some
recuperation; secondly, because beer drink
ing is practced by both sexes more generally
than the spirit drinking and thirdly, be
cause the animalizing tendency Of the habit
is more uniformly developed, thus author
izng the presumption that the vicious re
suits are more generally transmitted"

The extent Of his many noble examples
and his christian influence no finite mind
can duly estimate. "Well done, good and
faithful servant" He died died Sept,
ls41, in the full assurance of a glorious i'm
mortality, and over his mortal remains his
many friends have erected monumen, of
massive dimensions.
"Our fathers, where are they?" Thi. ques-
ton is answered, in part, by an inspection Of
the rudely cut slate head-stones in tna,
"burying place" which TIE town voted as
early as March 1867, to spend one day ''for
to clear and for to fence they having pre-
viously chosen a committee to examine three
places by digging &c, but, unfortunately,
they made poor selection. and no wonder,
as the ground, at that time, was covered BY
heavy growth of large trees, which made
their opportunity less favorable.
But | am sorry TO say ,ha, this ancient
cemetery has been most sadly neglected,
still. in some instances a more commenda-
bic spirit IS manifested..in the erection Of
marble tablets and granite monuments.
the most conspicuous Of which is that
erected in memory Of Father Fisher"
which is about "A feet high, and on its face,
or front side, is cut what represents large
open book-a BIb.e-and across its face is
engraved his well known and oft repeated
motto: Know Thyself." This motto, also
often appears. together with his Initials J. F.
in several Of the wood cuts, the plates for
which, with his remarkable skill and in
genui,y, he prepared to illustrate the several
books which he published. But the most
wonderful Of oil his most skilfu designs
was full! page frontspece representing a
large tree, but no one. al the first sight,
would have the least idea that among lis
branches was a picture Of a human face,
but ITS outlines being pointed out no one
who ever knew the author, would fail even
at a glance TO recognize a very exact profile

Land Speculation on the Maine Coast and
the Mystery of Michael 0'Malley.

Almost any island off the Maine shore 5
liable to be found in the hands Of a specula-
tive syndicate, this summer, So many for
tunes have been made in real estate invest
ments at Bar Harbor that capitalists in Maine
and other States nave set their eyes on the
Maine coast line and reasoned il this way:
The whole Maine coast line will be wanted
one of these days. and if invest now some
body will want my bit of land more than
do, bye and bye Since last summer, exten-
sive purchases have been made on the coast
and especially on the islands near Mt Des-
ert.
The discouraging feature of these spscu-
latons is the difficulty in securing good IL
ties. \ gentleman who has bought hundreds
Of acres told me that in more than one in
stance the trouble of establishing has title
has cest more than his land. In exploring
old houses and chests and rummaging
among ancient plantation records for clues
to these titles, much curious lore and inter-
esting history have been brought to light.
Swans Island is one Of the places that
have attracted spectators. One gentleman
has bought half mile of shore and is buy
ing now. Swans Island lies between Isle
au IIeut and Nj. Desert and is believed 10
have those superior qualities which viii
makeIt one day great summer resort. The
island has strange story. James Swan
bought il from the State of Massachusetts in
l1S6. From Swan the title was transferred
to Michael O'Matley. This O'Mailey is

ever was on his island. Although the na"a
is apparently Irish, it is believed that lt owns
