Fill STATEMENT. 7
The iolkiwing , is a communication apprO•
priately signed Vox POputi, in the Money bi
t/awry, ably disOssing the whole subject,
and' fairly concluding that Pennsylvania is
entitled to
,a Prohibitory Liquor LaW in ac
cordance with ihei "prayer of her people:"
. . . - . .
The temper a nce'- question, it is well known,;
became au important element in the election Of!,
l 833; and_several members were returned as
pledged or favorable to,the passage of a lair "Cyr
the suppression of the manufacture and sale of
intoxicating liquors as a beverage." Inthose ail
theta where the election of candidatii.'favomble!
to 'such enactment failed, there were Many. whe
addressed the Legislature un the eubjeef.. Peti
tions and remonstrances tiowed in upon the mem
bers in great numbers. A prohibitory bill was
accordingly introduced and extensively 'discussed.
Various opinies were held and expressed. . Sonia
were in favor oi
passing the bill at once. 'Others
a
proposed top itand leave its repeat 19 the pee
pie., Others still Proposed to authorimi,a vote pf
the People upon the qumtion, whether any law en
the subject.sbould he enacted or not. :,This wiis
thesincee.ssful proposition. The Preamble to the
law authorizing the appeal to the ballciOxix, sets
fol-th the Object of:the law, the evil and! the rein
edy. It runs as fellows:—"Whereas 0 laws to
be efficient should have the approbation all sanc
tion of the people; And Whereas it is represented
that a large number, if not a majority of the eiti-
rens of this commonwealth aro, deeplylimpressed
with the necessity of the passage of aprohibitory
liquor law; And whereas it is ihiptosible to obtain
a certain indication of popular sentiment relatite
thereto by means of petitions and remcinstranees;
Therefore, Ile it enacted," to submit thee questionquestion
,to the qualified voters at the p01b. , , the Votes to . be
cast up and certified in the same manner as the
votes for Governor; and opened and, 'Conuted !in
the same manner ; i and considered as the prayeeof
the vdteia of this commonwealth relatiVe to apro
;hibitory liquor law.
It is hence manifest, that the - Legislature Wait
,erobarrasse'd in reference to the populate' sentiment,
from the inadequacy of petitions and remonstran.'
Ces to inform thathody; they wanted tip ascertain
in the most solemn form practicable, whether such
a law, if enacted;;would have " the imwobitiiiti
and sanction of the people." ,This,appears frOm
the speech of our Senator, the lion Mr.' Quiggle,
ialhe Sehate, on the 22d of March last, rho said,
"let the people breathe upon it their Sanction ;at
the ballot-box, and all will sulheit." Ile contem
plated "the sublime spectacle of Hearty four htin
deed thousand fre4 citirear r voting upon the great
question. And if it should occurthatO rnajoqty
of the citheas of this common Wealth Ire opposed,
all will submit." '.... ,- ~

tricts have declared to the same ctreCt,
Now, a the voles o.n the subject are, by the iaw
authorizing the election, to be "considered 'as the
prayer of the voters of this commonwealth Oa
tire to a prohibitory liquor law," how shall that
prayer be construed? • How will the - Legislature
understand it? It was for their benetitthritthe Vote
was taken. What , Peeitain indication of poptilar

of the'. people of •this commonwealth on the sub
ject? Will they regard the 16:1,510 Vetes against
the 207,599, as a certainindication of popular zen=
tituent?.. Will they allow it that character' , al

61S votes actually cast, to 'overrule the exprei4ion

counties, and-of the Senatorial and Itepresentaltive
,Listrictsr If we look at the law, and its avdwed
object, and the results of the ballot, must wel'not
conclude hat the popular Itentii;whi is clearly, in
favor of a prohibitory law? Those whom interyst,
or appetite, or conscientious opposition led tu•lop
pose thel enactment, must be, found aniong'ahe
163,510, white the positively frieorabrg, or at least
knot hostile. Make up the 207,599, the differMwe

, ernor. I •
Whatever the motive of the last Legislature; the
coming ono will have the benefit of the vote:: of
'public sentiment truthfully ascertained; which' be
ing triumphantly - in favor ofla prohibitory law,
lays for them a sure basis of action is the arpro-
Cation and sanc6on of the pro?ple.' An approba

"With this suggestion in view,jit becomes

siirRAILSOAD STATISTICS.,—A correspon

the number of lives which have been lost on
the Great IVestern Railway, says, that since
the opening of the road, the passenger. trains
have run in the aggregate about seven hun
dred thousand miles, during which they have
killed upiards of seventy-fotir • passengers,
and wounded and maimed over eighty-two,
who had nocontrol over their own actions—thus
giving a pa.ssenger killed for ' every 9,590
mileh travelled, while in the State of Ne*
Yorli taking twenty railways (2,076 miles)
we find, according to the State Engineer's re
port Or 1853, that there was only one passen
ger killed for every 108,636,1'49 miles travel
led, and otie injured for every 6,212,050 miles
travelled, dr giving the Great Western the
unenviahlq position of having killed in the
ratio otnearly 20,500 to 1. .
See' JUiRiE TAI.CET'S D.KigION 9.N USURY.
—The decision of Judge Taney, in the case of
Dill r:f.' Ellicott, on the usurious point raised
in the trial, has produced much. solicitude on
the part of some moneylenders. The !Pa
triot says it has taken
_a good deal of trouble
to ascertain the substance of Judge Taney's
decision, Which . is this, that, under the new
ConstitUtien all original contracts or obliga
tions, including more than 6, per cent, inter
eat, are vdid, and involve no contract what
ever. In !case of a note of Land, sold for
what it will bring, the plea of usury cannot be
maintained. The Legislature is authorized
to fix the ‘;'penalties and forfeitures," but as
yet have omitted to do so, and the opinion of
Judge Taney is that no penalty or forfeiture
,can be ,leap than the whole contract, but may
be more. It is stated that it is the intention
•of Judge T. to write out hill opinion, which
will be looked Tor with much interest. • In the
meantime,lthe notes offered, by brokers for
sale, if not originally made .Wlth usurious in
tent, cannot be affected by the clause of the
Constituthin referred to,and npOn:which Judge
T. has decided ae above. In the case of Dill
vs. Ellicott; the plea of user}'- was not sus
tained, although made, and the decision was
in favor of the plaintiff to recover, while,
we
believe, the acceptance of the Ellicotts had
been shaved.—Bullintore Sua,Nor. 11.

forts are also stated to have beed.demolished. •
The town was on fire in three places. As
sault upon it was to be. matte on the 2nd or
3rd of Novernber, one account says, while ari•
other avers that it has positively been cap
tured. This last is doubtful. Austria and .
Russia haie each 200,000 soldibrs on' their '
Polish frontier, and things look eery witrlike
there. At St. Petersburg. the Brusslhn ant•

Russian victory over Scharnvt arid his Cireas
inns is reported. ?The withdrawal of the order
prohibiting Soultil from entering France is
confirmed.

OttEs.—Mr. Alfred Truman, of Swansea, has
patented an improved fig-nixed for the calci
nation of copper ores and other mineral• sub
stances. In this furnace are arranged sever
al retorts or tttbes side by side, by preference,
and on the same level; these retorts are cyl
indrical, and One end of each communicates
with the one next to it. They are heated by
a fire at one e d of the series, the i
flame fro'ut
i
which passes nder and over. each retort, so
that the one nearest the fire is heated most,
and that further from it least and the others
in proKrtion; - according to theirt. I;
.tance
from the fire. I It' is not-necessary that the
retorts should Ibe placed side by: side, and .in
the same level; they may be placed on an
incline, or one . above the other, suitable ar
rangements being made for heating each re
tort to a diff4ent temperature. The ore or
other :mineral I substance is introduced at or
near one end of the retort farthest from the
fire, suitable apparatus being provided to ad
mit the - requisite. quantity froth a hopper
placed above. I A worm or screw is caused to
revolve by suitahle motive power through the
whole length f the. retort, in such manner
that the substrce introduced may he moved
through . to the other end of the retort, whence
it passes to the second, and by the action of
a screw is med through it to the opposite
end, and theme to the third, and so on. Af
ter it has passed through the last retort of the
series, it is puthed out by the illiPon of the
screw, and falls into a receptacle or it. Air
may or may not be admitted to the substance,
according to the effect ivished to be produced
by the calcination. ; .
