A Blacklist for Tipplers.

From the Baltimore Sun.
 Those bibulous citizens of West Chester, Pa, who cannot control their thirst for ardent spirits have fallen upon evil days. Their names have been recorded upon a Blacklist" and saloon keepers are forbidden, under penalty of fine and Imprisonment, to sell them alcoholic drinks. The mag istrate who is responsible for this re- form, in his zeal to let no toper escape, has made a serious blunder and one which may cause him great pain in the region of his pocket nerve. Among the names of the unfortunate citizens who do not know when to cease daily ing with the wine cup appears that of a prominent and respected resident of West Chester. This gentleman, it is alleged, is not a victim of the drink habit, but, on the contrary, one whose life is irreproachable. AS soon as he discovered that he had been black listed as an incorrigible topper he served notice of suit for defamation of character, and claimed damages to the amount of $5000 from the official who had rashly listed his name among those of the men who tipple not wise ly, but too frequently and deeply. The magistrate gave bond in the sum of 5000, and the case is to be tried at an early day. Able counsel has been engaged on each side and interesting developments are expected. The Penn sylvania law which provides for black listing topers was enacted in 1854. It has been practically a dead letter since it was placed on the statute books of the state of William Penn. At the last session of the Pennsylvania legislature it was amended so as to impose a fine and imprisonment on saloon keepers who violated its pro visions. It will be unfortunate for the magisterial reformer of West Chester if his efforts to curb drunkenness and restrain topers from quenching their thirst cause him to be mulcted in dam ages. It is presumed that hereafter he will exercise greater caution in pre- pairing his list of those imbibers who, in the vernacular, are designated as chronic jags" and steady soaks."
