Tbe features were the Doll department and tbe soap bubble department, which with rare magnanimity, was made free, and of course it could not fail to attract general attention at a church bazar The different booths and their fair keepers were as follows: Fancy Work: Mrs J, M.

"The Drink Mystery." When S. 11. Miller. Esq., of Mer cer, mad'* hia temperance speech here a few w<-ck£ ago, and immediately after he finirhed, he was asked whether or no he thought tbe act of 18S1 entirely repealed the act of 18G7, and he Haid be thongbt it did and gave bis reasons for so think'sg. The act of *t>7 specified certain things to be stated iu tbe petition, and among them tbe cumber of rooms, beds, etc., for the accommodation of the public. The act of 'B7 specifies certain things to appear in the peti tions, says uothing about tbe number ol beds and rooms, but does say that the petition stall say "feat the place to be licenced is neco?serv for tbe ac- C' mmodatioa ot" tl.e puMic " Some of tb« m- mb >» of *hc- Bar here, to d that the r.ew law is com plete in itself, aad otbtrs ihat ( arts of the old law are yet in force There has as vet. b**en no deci-ion of the Cinprtme C«iurt on the quesliou, aud Judge Hazt-n h Ids thut those por tions of the old law not in coufliot with the new are yet in force, and that the necessity for a hotel or pub lic house at a certain place caivies with it the right to have licence to st II i'quor. The owessity for a cerl&in amount of hctel accommodation at several points in this county goes without saying, and therefore, according to Judge Hazen's ruling, a certain num ber of liq'jor licenses follow of right, though the act of 'B7 also says that the Court shall refu.«« the application for a liquor license when, "having doe regard tor the number and character of the petitioners lor and against snch application" it is the opinion of the Court that tucl) license is not • necessary. As far as we can see tbe law leaves the matter to the personal sentiment and opinion of the Judge. If the sentiment of the com munity is taken into account every application from Butler will be refus ed, every one from Saxonburg will be granted, and in the oil towns with tteir semi-foreign populations, the matter will be divided. The criminal business of the late term was not finished uctil Friday of last week, at 10 A M..wbeu the license Hpi'licaiions were taken up, and it was soon seen that tbe License Court this year, was to be a re-hash of that of preceeding years. Tbe ijppiicaiious were presented, the applicant examined as to bis bouse and tbo necessity for a public house at that point, and cross-exam ined as to his record. His bondsmen were questioned as to their property, aud bis certifiers as to the necessity of a public house at that place. It was noticed that some of tbe bonds men and certifiers would not say that a license to sell liquor was necessary. For tbe remonstrants and against tbe applications, numbers of citizens were called who testified that tbey did uot believe a liquor license was necessary at tbe poiut in question or any otber point, aud tbe remonstran ces presented in the Butler cases showed that tbe sentiment here Btrongly preponderates agaiost the granting of any liquor licenses. The general ruu of the evidence in the cases is not worth publishing but tbere are some items worthy of note. For instance it appeareU from the evidence tbat most of the licensed ho tel men have been selling liqoor iu bottles, and this Judge Hazen said be considered a violation of the spirit of the Act of Assembly. In tbe Petrolia cases, the three old < ladies who secured the siguatures to the remonstrances wore qualified to the genuineness of the whole instead of each one being qualified to the particalar names she had secured. This came out and Judge llazen said something about turning tbe ladies over to the Grand Jury, and remark ed upon the criticism be bid be»n sub jected to by the ladies a year ago, but the actual genuineness of the names was not called iu question. Iu i these cases also the Ilou. A. L Campbell aud one or two other prom inent citizens of the towu testified as to tbe fearful state of society iu the place, Mr. Campbell saying tbat tbey ' now have the worst state of society there they ever had, and tbat he believed a licensed bouse would do good because it would drivo the low dives out of the towu. We have questioned otber citizens of the plaee regarding tbis aud are told tbat sev eral persons there, including some abandoned women, have beeu selling liquor tbere right aloag, facts known to everybody and not interfered with by the officers of the law, aud that it would not be safe for any citizen of the place to interfere. Tbe people of Petrolia, as a general thing are not natives of the county. They came iu with the oil excitement ten or twelve years ago, aod accord ing to tbis evidence tbey have estab lished a community there tbat equals in wickedness any Sodom or (Jomor : rah that ever existed, and you may I kill the devil by giving him strong | drink, but a better way would be to | drown bim in it and then set the li | quor on Are Rouse yourselves, ye Christians of Petrolia. "Ho, reapers of life'a harvest, Why stand ye Idly by ?" Another thing worth noting is the bar busiuetw done by the hotels iu Butler. Mr. Eitenmiller testified that the receipts of bis bar averaged S4O a day, Mr. Lowry that hid aver aged $35 a day, aud Mr Campbell that biH averaged was from SSU to S6O a day SSO a day for 310 dayn moans $15,500 a year, and an there are four hart* iu town, Home where near $60,000 changed hauds over them in Butl«-r during the past year. Another item wuu that the bar keepers' "blaek lii»t" of Butler and vicinity now contains the names of j 125 persona. r l'be evidence in the cases was all in by TuAHday evening. Wednesday morning was occupied in making ar guments on the law sod on the facts presented in the different cases. Messrs. Thompson, McQuistion, Mar shall and McC'andless spoke for the applicants and Messrs. Robinson atd (lalbreath for the remonstrants All I the attorney* for the applicants held , that portions of the old laws are in force aud that the necessity for the hotel carries with it the right to have ! Bcense; and two of them thought | that public wntimeul tended towards anarchy. The testimony of -Vlr. ! Campbell, oi t'eirolia, was referred to | and enlarged upon as showing the j necessity for licensed houses. Mr. Bobinsou spoke of the evils of I intemperance, aud Mr. Galbreath made a clear, able, aud to all the tem perance people present a conclusive argument on the law. fla believes the new law regarding the sale of liquor wipes out the old aud ridicu lous ones regarding licensing hotels, though the law does not wind op with the usual repealing clause. Every implication of the now law is in that direction. When the arguments were concluded Court adjourned until one o'clock of oext Monday, when, we suppose, •Judge Uerzwn will unuouuee his de- ciaions in this matter, and we have uo doubt whatever, from his ruliQfre on the law thnt the majority of the applications will be granted. When Mra Tillioghast of Petrolia was OQ tho witness-Btand, and io answer to a question by Judge fhe Baid that ehe waa sorry for an> man who had to administer the License Law. So are ail ttmperance people, and par ticularly so for a Judge, whose opiu ioua and sentiments ure contrary to ibe majority of those of tne commun ity in which he lives, and contrary to those of the jrreat majority of the i political party to which be adheres. Tbe Republican members of the late Legislature passed tho prohibi tory amendment, aud, we bope, tbe next Legisiatare will do the same, so that tbe people of tbe Statu may have a vote on tbe subject, for with men in office who determined to eraui. license, so long as they can find s« me mole-bill of ancient law to ex cuse them for so doiujf, notwithstand ing new law at.d popular sentiment iu rtmoni-trinces_. we see no s-jJutiOQ of the excepting j tbe totai auuihilutioa of the liquor traSic Tne liquor question is the sociul question of the day, and, in part, iLclude:- the labor question. 0: the StSO,OOG taken iu by the bars of this town last, ymr, probably live eixtbs came from tne laboring men of this town and vicinity—the evirieLce to tbe contrary notwithstanding— money needed for their taiuiiiee. and itie wasting of which puts them more aud more iu tbe power of iht capital i=ts. Tbe of our political iußti tutious, aad the freedom and happi ness o> our future gene> atious demand the suppression ot this physical, po litical and moral corruption. Y. M. C. A. Tbe annual report of the Y. M. C. A., of Butler, is both BUl prising and gratifying. It shows the Association to be established on a foundation for doing its good work, and to be the possessor of commodious quarters which include a large Lecture room, a comfortable reading room, a Direc tors' room, and a Secretary's office The reading room is furnished with fifty papers and magazines, both re ligious and secular, and daily weekly aud mouthly. The register shows the namea of nearly four thousand visitors (not in cluding members) who have used the room in a little over a year. The Lacture room has been used every Sunday afternoon for holding prayer meetiuga and tbe attendance during tbe year waa about 2500. Five receptions were given io the re ception room which were attended by over a thousand people. On the hobscription list appear the names of nearly ail our foremont bus iness man and others, who contribute annually $1314 50. Tne financial statement of the first year shows tbe receipts to l>e $2037. lt> and the expen ditures, slOls 81, lea7iDg a balance in the treasury of $421.35. Tbis may give some faint idea of the work done by the association, work which is not expressed in fig ures, and it partly consists in the pure end wholesome reading matter sup plied to m tuy whose tastes are nat urally iu another direction, in the prisou prayer meetings, and in the good influence which the members of th 3 association have as a baud, on those young men who through poverty, illiteracy, and bad companions, have ueither the influen ces uor the iucliuatiou to be anything but what tbey were, May the V. M. 0. A., live and con tinue in its good work of saving the youug men. ALUM BAKING POWDERS. A List of those most prominent ly Sold.
