Effects of Prohibition.

DUBUQUE, Iowa, May 2l.-Iu an inter
view yesterday, Interna! Revenue Collector
Webster, of this district, stated Tat the
prohibitory law increased tbss sale of liquor
in Iowa. This year lie has issued 232 more
liquor llcenSes than last year. The number
Of wholesale dealers is slightly less than be-
fore The prohibitory law, but the sales are
larger and the quality of liquor sold is poor
en- Not only have the sales increased, but
since the decision Of the U. s. Supreme
Court in The case Of Bowman Bros, the Mar
shaltown brewers, the importations by ex-
press oforiginal packages ofliquor have been
enormous. Wholesale liquor houses have
sprung up all along the borders of the State
and are supported by low trade.

newspapers.

This report precipitated warm discussion

ton, and this related to the SyDod's actions

ton. This presbytery, after the meeting OF
the last General Assembly at Baltimore,
passed o resolution announcing that toe as
ssmblc had declared the views held by DR..
Woodrow az TO the origin ofAdam's body to
he contrary to the standards of the church;
thst the decision of the assembly was con-
elusive, and that all further public contend
ing against that decision should be ceased.
The committee appointed by the Synod OF
South Carolina to examine the minutes of
the Charleston Presbytery reported that the
action of the presbytery in passing this reso'
luton was "nnwise, Irregular and uncoDsti-
tutional," being an Infringement oithe rights
of free thought and free speech. The report
was adopted by the Synod.
The committee of tho General Assembly in It's
report upon tho minutes of the synod yesterday,
recommended First, that thcsction of the synod
in regard to the Charleston Presbytery be ap-
proyed so far as it declares the action of tho pres
bytery to be unwise and, second, that its action
he dsaproved together with all its reasons, In 81
far az il declares the resolution of the presbytery
to be irregular and unconstitutional
lively discussion followed, bat tho matter WAS
finally laid over.

ATTACKED Ely A RABID BUzzARD.-Mr
Owen Voolfolk, employed rs engineer on
the ferry boat V. Owen, relates strange
story of desperate encounter with mad
buzzard in Illinois, opposite Paducah, Ky.
Mr.. Voolfolk says he was accompanied by
Squire sdener, and was driving along
the road between Sprngtowp and the ferry
landing Wednesday afternoon, when buz-
z,rd swooped down and made vicious at
tack on the mule which was drawing their
Buggy. TIE animal kicked aad plunged /,
and it was with difficulty it was restrained
from running away. Leaving the animal,
the bird turned Its attention to the occu-
pants ofthe buggy, making repeated assaults,
and it was only by vigorous applications of
the whip and an old sack that they were
enabled TO defend themselves and finally
kill the mad bird. There have been mum
Der of rabid dogs killed 10 that vicinity dur.
ing the last few weeks, and it is supposed
the bird contracted hydrophobia by eating
the flesh of the dead animals.
