Liquor Decision.

The Supreme CoHrt Of the United States
has rendered decision in the case OF
party of brewers against the Chicago and
North western railroad company in case
appealed from the Iowa Court. The state
of,Iowa has prohibitory liquor law and p
clause in the law forbids under penalty the
bringing liquors into that state without q
permit from state office designated for
granting such permit The Supreme Court
holds that for the purpose Of its policy a
State has legislative control, exclusive Of
Congress, within its ter ritory, of all persons.
things and transactions of strictly internal
concern. For the purpose Of protecting its
people against the evils Of incompetence il
has the right to prohibit the manufacture
within its limits Of intoxicating liquors. Il
cannot, without the consent OF Congress,
express OF. implied, regulate commerce be-
tween its people and those of other s. ates OF
the Union in order to effect its ends, how
ever desirable such regulation might be.
The power TO regulate or forbid the sale OF
a commodity after it has been brought into
the State does not carry with II the right
and power 10 prevent its introduction by
transportation from another State. The
court .prononnces against the validity ofthe
section of the statute of Iowa Involved
in the case and reverses the judgment
of the Circuit Court for the Southern
District of Illinois, which was in favor oil
the railroad. Mr.. Justice Harlan read for
himself and for the chief justice. and Justice
Gray long dissenting opinion maintaining
the right of a State to protect the health,
morals, peace and good order of its citizens
by prohibiting the bringing of intoxicating
liquor into it from other States.
This decision of the Supreme Court
shows plainly that the liquor question is
not only State but National question,
that law of Congress is necessary to pre-
vent The transportation Of liquor into any
State in defiance of its prohibatoIy laws,
and thus set at naught its laws. In the
light of such facts what could such weak
defences. as ''local opium for districts and
COMMITTEES do toward abolishing the traffic,
with public sentiment thrown in to assist?
Very little; and that little only temporary.

An Opportunity for the People OF
Rising Sun,

In Baltimore one of the most rapidly growing
enterprises OF the last few years. and one of the
most appreciated as well has been the Instalment
Business. Its great advantage and benefits espec.
tally 10 the medium and poorer classes cannot be
oyerestimated. Formerly people in ordinary cir
cumstances were compelled to do without great
many necessary comforts of life; that is, their
houses We're scantily furnished, and only because
they could not at any time raise sufficient cash
money to properly furnish them. What little fur
niture they had, was of the poorest and cheapest
class and never made @ respectable appearance or
gave any satisfaction. Now on the Instalment
Plan any honest person, no matter what his or her
circumstances are, no matter he W poor or how
rich. they can get any thing in the way of Furni
ture, Carpets. Stoves, Crockery. Refrigerators,
Baby Carriages. Parlor Organs etc. In fact any or
every thing necessary to furnish the Home COM
plete from cellar to attic.-they can get all these
by simply paying . small amount cash down and
the balance on small monthly payments. which
are made to suit their circumstances and are al
ways made so low that the money will hardly be
missed. This plan has become so popular in all
the larger cities that over two.thirds of all the
people now purchase their household goods that
Way;-in fact all except the extreme wealthy GLASS
%. Now the people OF Rising Sun never have had
this opportunity offered them SO the Peoples

Reduct,on CT Postage,

Congress has passed a. bill reduc.
ing the postage on seeds, cuttings,
bulbs, roots. scions, &c, to one cent
per four ounces, being just one quar-
ter of the present rate, and making
the postage on this class of matter
the same in the United States as in
Canada. Some American seedm en-
have been sending their packages by
express to Canada and having them
mailed there to their American Gus
TONERS, taking advantage of the low
Canadian charge-which Of course
results in giving the Canadian gov
erment all the money they pay for
postage.

Prohibition Grows in Popularity.

When House bin 10 submit to the people
of the State the question Of prohibitory
amendment came up for a third reading.
DIR. Mackall said: ~ do not look upon
this bill in q ianatical, but practical sense.
Many counties haye adopted prohibition,
and the fact is well known that intemper-
ance has decreased very much. In my own
county, Cecil, prohibition has done more to
aid the people than its most ardent supports
ers ever hoped for before its adoption.
Many. who opposed it be fore now favor IL.
But the question rs, is it practical to adopt
such law for the State at large? 1t is for
tue people to decide this question. | doubt
If it is practical TO enforce the law in the
large cities, but IT is al least worth a trial.
i have no doubt but that outside Of the city
Of Baltimore the vote on the proposed ques-
tion. would be Il rgely in its favor"
Mr.. Dodson called attention 10 the large
number Of petitions which had been receiv-
ed asking for . vote on the que-tion, and
that it was a live one, and would sooner OF
later enter. political necessities. He main-
tanned that if the people wanted to vote on
tn Question. s they should by all means be
given that privilege. IS s6 s:e .p.oss4
Mr.. Percy favored the bill to give the
vote because il was demoeratic,l although
he did. not feel hound to vote Mt the general
election either for or sgaisst prohibition.
The vote on the bill was then taken, and
resulted. yeas AZ. nays'9. ara
DIR. Mackalla and CALDWELL honored their
county, their constituents and themselves
bv voting for the bill but Moore, where
was Moore? Hiding in North East harTens?
He did not tumble to the racket whtn his
name was called. Prohibition like young
Scipio conquers less by the force Of its arms
than by the charms of lie virtue. There is a
class Of people, however, who can see no
charms in virtuesqr sobrieiy, with this class
prohibition laws deal sternly, and when
officers are elected who are not the crea-
lures Of the liquor power there is no didi-

ANOTHER CIR US ROW,
In Which the Sheriff of Pike Takes a
Prominent Part.
From the Griffin (Ga.) News.

From the Griffin (Ga.) NeIcs.
We have just received the information
from Zebulon, that on last Saturday, while
Howe's circus was giving a performance in
That place, a row occurred between a man
who was running gaming machine on the
outside, and crowd of men who were
betung on his game. The men lost consd-
cradle money on the game, and accused the
gambler of cheating them. They also de-
clded amongst themselves that they would
make him return the money he had
Won from them. After talking with him
some time about the matter, and after he
mad repeatedly refused to return their
money, they attempted to mob him and
take II away from him. Seeing the mob
were determined to carry their point, and
tearing violence at their hands, he called on
pI,uerln Howard for protection. Mr..
howard quickly responded to his cries for
assistance and rushed into the crowd, drew
ms pistol upon them, and warned them that
ne would shoot the first man who made
any attempt to modest the man. He
olso snapped his pistol at one of the
men, and but for the interference of by
SANDER, who placed his thumb between the
hammer and cartridge, would have un-
1oubtedly killed him. This quoted the
Iuss' but tho citizens we're very much en-
RACED that Howard should protect a man
VINO was engaged in such profession.
4, Inc result of it was that on yesterday
enere was held mass meeting and another
Inau nominated to run for sheriff. Howard
was nominated without any opposition q
snort time ago, but he will now meet with
SIrong opposition.

He WAS ON THE ALABAMA.
One of Admiral Semmes' Captains
Passes Through Atlanta.


Passes Through Atlanta.
From the Atlanta (Ga.) Journal
When the Atlanta and West Point train
pulled out of the union depot yesterday
afternoon an old man, with white hair and
snowy beard, occupied a seat in the rear
passenger coach. He wore gray uniform
with brass buttons, aud his baggage con-
sisted of bundle and a walkiUg- stick.
The old man was Capt. c. II. Goodwin,
who was on the confederate steamship Ala
bama with Admiral Semmes, from the mo-
ment the vessel was launched in Liverpool
until she sunk never to rise again in the
waters off the coast of Cherbourg, French
seaport. He was first captain of the after
guard, and stood by Admiral Semmes' side
when that distinguished soldier jumped
from the Inflated Alabama as she filed
with water from holes made by
cannon balls from the guns of the
yankee gunboat Kearsarge. This oc-
Cured on June 10, 1864. Admiral Semmes
was picked up by the yacht Deernound,
which belonged to the gunboat Lancashire.
Capt. Goodwin was picked up by another
boat and made his way to Dorcheste
where he applied for and received an hon
orable discharge from the Alabama He
then secured positio II on the confederate
blockade boat called the Runner, with
Capt. Davis, now of Richmond, Va.
Capt. Goodwin is 63 years of age. He
lives in Dallas, Tex, and just returned
from trip to England, where he secured a
lot of private papers which he had left
there, among which was his discharge from
the Alabama. The old man regarded this
piece of paper as a precious treasure, and
keeps it carefully wrapped in oilskin. The
discharge" is dated ''Cherbourg, June %,
1854, and bears the signatures of "Richard
W. Curtis, acting paymaster of the Ala
bama," and ''R. Semmes, admiral"
Capt. Goodwin is in INDECENT circum-
stances, and has lived several years in the
Confederate Veterans home in Richmond,
Va. Friends gave him money with which
to make the trip TO Europe and back. He
will pass through Mobile and call upon
Judge Semmes, son of the admiral.
While in Atlanta a few hours Yesterday,
Capt. Goodwin called upon DIR. Amos Fox,
to whom he had a letter of introduction,
