in the selection of delegates to the state

guilty parties. Money seems to be the
only thing wanted by the nightly Visitors,
Tor IN several places where they nave
ransacked homes, they have passed by
tewelry and other valuables and carried
offRnly what money they could ma. Most
OF the burglaries have been committed IN
the early hours of the night, while faml-

the churches.

The capacity of the average drlnker
NAV, perhaps, be placed at three
quarts at sitting, as derived from
this account, which covered one
hogshead of punch, one barrel OF
punch, forty gallons of punch, nine
bowls of punch, forty-fve gallons
of wine and forty-seven gallons OF
beer. Washington, who was not
present, expressed his surprise at
this moderation, and wrote his
AGENT that he feared he had not
been liberal enough, and expressed
the hope that he had not neglected
those who had voted in the opposi'
ton.
"His reflective mind and acute
observation soon noted the raVages
made by drink, and doubtless con-
frmed that personal moderation
which never permitted him to run
into excess of any kind. In the
Provincial army, when general
charges of drunkenness were made
against the Virginia troops, there
was no word against Washington
personally. He had, moreover,
thus early deplored it as serious
vice, forbade it by stringent orders,
and applied hundred lashes to
every man found drunk. Still later
he wrote that Gin shops served tc
ruin the proprietor and those who
make the most frequent application
to them and in advising his
nephew he adds, Refrain from
drink. which is a source of all evil
and the ruin of half the workmen
, of this country"
