During last year Pennsylvania hail passed a "local option law," after the Supreme Court of Iowa had declared such a law unconstitutional. Wis consin has passed a prohibitory act, while in Missouri antl New Jersey local option bills were defeated. New lorkhas passed an amended local option bill, ami iu Illinois the Ohio temperance bill has passed. In Mas sachusetts the question of permitting the sale of malt liquors was submit ted to the jicople, and sale was per mitted by a vote of one hundred and nine townships against fifty-three. These acts, he said, must necessarily demoralize the people, and thc trade should adopt measures to stay thc progress of fanaticism in this coun try. Thc influence ef the brewers, belonging to both political parties, was great, and they should use it in thc right direction. The issue; in a measure, had liecoine a political one, and should be treated as such. The statistics here presented by the Rrewers' President are interesting and iiMiMirtant, but we are not of those who believe that beer promotes temperance. The use of light wines in warm climates is undoubtedly fa vorable, as it is the substitute for something stronger, but in such a climate as ours, U-er is the foretaste of brandy; and then conies the other bier, which takes thc victim to thc drunkard's grave. An old woman entered the refresh ment room at tho dcjKit in Spring field, Mass., thc other day, and said that she had left her parasol on the settee. After the attcudans had spent some time looking for the lost article, the old lady said she had left it there "just three years ago last Fouth of Ju ly, "and was very much astounded to see every body drop the search with a laugh. ingot the I'cciaratmn ot independ ence was hastened by an absurdly trival cause. Near the hal in which the debates were then held was a livery stable, from which swarms of flies came into the open windows and assailed the silk-stockinged legs of honorable members. Handkerchief in hand they lashed the flies with such vigor as they could command on a Julv afternoon; but the annoyance liecaine at length so extreme as opponents which soeial progress and true political and moral reform have ever had in this country. The Green Ray, Wis., Gazette says: A little Ivoy-by the name of Schmidt obtained a baak check upon the Rank of omnierce, and filled it out for $400, payable to his uncle, forging thc signature of Anton Klatise. He presented the check at the bank for payment, saying his uncle had sent him to get it cashed. Thc check was apparently a genuine one, but the officers of the bank mis trusted that something was wrong, and stepped out to make inquiries. Thc loy concluded to step out too, ami did it so effectually that he was not found until late in the evening. This precocious scamp is scarcely twelve years old. but he carried out his rascality-with the shrewdness and manner of a veteran. When examin ed he at first stoutly denied ac knowledge of the transaction, but finally confessed the whole. The following deserved compliment is from the Kittanning Jit-jjuUiran of this week: As Pennsylvania, by a recent act of Congress, is entitled to an addi tional Congressman, the duty of sc- lecting another Congressman at large will devolve ujHn the State Central Committee, aud we know of no gen tleman letter fitted for the position. than the Hon.
