Temperance in Lexington, 4.--We

meeting would be held in Lexington, Ky.,.
and that a Berson would appear at the meet

TA VERN• LICENCES.
In Pennsylvania, tavern . licences, which
'bring ,it few dollars of tatceach.,into the
State treasury, are" granted on application
by petition to fife I :culty Courts. It is
an easy matter, as every one khows, to
obtain a few _names for any reasonable
purpose; and it is, asAye hear, a rare thing,
in that State, for these applications for li
cense to 'keep a .house of public entertain
ment,' to be rejected by the courts. The
facility with which pe tions„to that end
have been signed, an , the prayer,oLtlie _
petitioner, in due co rse . granted , by` the
court, has resulted i a great and serious
evil, by a multiplication of "taverns" to a
number far be, and that requiied by the
public convenience or necessity. •
'During the present session- of the legit
' lature of , that State, a bill has beeti -report
ed,‘ in obedience to - public
i opinion, the ob
ject of which is to nterpoke some obstacle
to this facility of obtaining licet.ces, and as
a consequenee, some , barrier to the' evils
thence arising: This bill, we observe, has
had rather .a hard struggle' through the
ouse of Representatives—being the body
.freshest from the people;:and has lOsilsome
of its more efficient provisions in the pre
cess. ' But it has finally passed hoth Hous
es' and if not vetoed by Qty. Porter, will
undoubtedly accomplish something in the
nature of remedial action„for the evil Com
