The Liquor Bil is now. ;hanging between
the two Ildpses,,' in the /lands of acommittec
of conferenCe. The Senate would not-yield
its amendMents and the House refused to
concur. The Senal.e . Committee consists of
Messrs. - Slifr, Quiggle, and Piatt ; the House
Committee:of Messrs.. Cook, 'Patterson, .aid
Ellis. It is hard topri4l;ot the result. Both
Ccminitteer are, cimposed of able men, and
they are sit* all strong , temperance toe; but
divided ,entiment . al to what is Lest to'be
done. I think the &nate Committee will
yield and iake the!l.To4e Bill, perhaps Slight-
IT modified; but slime lire Of .opinion that nei
ther will' yield, ari'd the Bill Will thus
Lail between: the Ow - O - i Houses The House
Bill would 'eiidentlysecure much the largest
vote froin* people, Many of its features be

This - - censileratiori ought to weigh heavily in

Gov; Bigler . deserved this tribute, for his

have nobly defeated the politicians who,-en ,

heavy North West wind ,blowing at the thn,e
the fire was discoveied, which kindled the d/

the most indefatigable energy and Unyieldlig

of J. E. Geiger And Mrs. Bull, on the opposite
