The present Legislature have before them an important question in the revision of the license lads. There is no doubt that the present Jug Law will be repealed. The vote at the last election iiaieated that thepeciiile• are oppotssl to the stringent frotriaionli of the late law. A hill has already beetVelrer ed for its repeal. The Pittsburg Post refers ing to this subject, mill that while a. large majority arc in favor of a repeal, they are divided In opinion m to whether they shall repeal the present law without providing a substitute In the farm era remodel and strin- . geeLlicensi;lliv. Some contend for thii mediate repeal 'as the first step, and then take *xi to, frame or oonsideak a pepper It cense law aftilrwards. Others % insist that both steps should be taken.simultaneopsly. While this is a subject of discussion in the House, Judge Wilkins, from . the committee of the Senate, has reported a 1411-to-do both acts at once. • Tevorn keepers are.divided into two Class esene to sell all kinds of liquors—the oth, irtkrstell cidir, beer, ale, porter and malt liquors. , liiprioe for Bemuses is high, and C the;party censell must_ give _ bend_ in ono ! thvetaarrd dollars, with sureties, conditioned for.the 104 st-observance of Cho provisions of the law: The Sunday lay, and the laws. sinst selling to minors, os ul go habitually intemperate pasties arc not repealed or mod ified. Ono peculiarity, of the bill is that those Iliensed are only authorised to cell to travelers and ponds, and not to - casual call. pall for the men purpose of think ing. / ' Soma portions of this bill %Ill) reeet'svith general approbation, syhile.others are liable to objections. It is At any rate an irrqtroye went on the old license law, and we presume it will be more satisfactory and useful than the law ef the last session.' Many of the former friends of prnhilition express the opinion that it as stringent a law as can be obtained and made permanent iq this State. In regard to the question of providing it substitute at the same time that the present law is repcaltd, we believe that it should be done, and that both should be done soon. Let all parties know et µs early a day-I<n possible what they have to depend on in fu tore ; and , if pos.Able give 1.111 - ,Auctra-law, as ern be permanent. It need uot take time to perfect and pum such a bill.

The wants, interests and opinions of the great 1111101 of the people are now pretty well understood on this subject ; and there is nu OCC.IBIOII fur delay further than i 3 no - CeßyAry to fraine . auch ik law t!.4 play be per inaneut. - • We agree with the /lost, that many will o cmpsed to this law, owing to its too '• . - stringent provihions.

It is doubtful whether this bill will pus. We trust that tr yrll br carefully amended and considered. It is abstrhse and 'rotund nails—and a shorter bill, with less classifi cation, will meet with more favor.
