EIERAIDA,N D tIPOSITOR
It is generally known that the restrictive
pw which goes into operation on the Ist of
October next, coupled with two enactments
on the same subject which went in force within
the past year, will make a radical change in
our system of licensing the sale of liquors.—
For the purpose of giving our readers a proper
understanding of the changes thus made we
subjoin an abstract of the three laws which
now combine to form our liqttor licenseAg i s.7_
tem.
The first is Mr. Buckalcw's Law or 'An act
to protect certain domestic and private ri g hts.
The second p is the 'Sunday Lay,' and the third
the late 'Act to restrain the mile of Intoxicat•
ing Liquors.' The provisions of these aro as
follows
1. A fine from $lO to $5O, and imprison
merit from ten to sixty days, for wilfully fur
nishing intoxicating liquors, as a beverage,
by sale, gift or otherwise, to minors or insane
persons—to any one when intoxicated, or to'
one known to be intonperate. The same pen
alty for thus furnishing such liquors to any
intemperate person to three months after
notice from friends forbidding the same.
2. Any person furnishing liquor to another
by gift, sale or otherwise, in violation of this,
or any other act, is held responsible for dama
ges, to persons or property, resulting thero
from.
3. A fine of $5O and imprisonment at the
discretion of the Court, for marrying a person
when intoxicated.
4. A flue of $5O, for the unwholesome adul.
teration of intoxicating beverages or the wil
ful sale of the same. For the second offence
$lOO fine, and .imprisonment nut exceeding
sixty days.
5. Expenoes not exceeding $2O to be paid
to prosecuior. No tuition to he maintained
for liquor sold contrary toany law, and Courts
may revoke license, &c.
1. A fine of $6O for each case of selling, tra
ding, or bartering of spirituous or midi liquors
wine or eider, ou Sunday. The same penalty
fur wilfully permitting them to by drunk on,
Or about the premised.
2. in cases of conviction for offences on two
separate Sundays, a fine of from SSU to $ll,O,
and imprisonment from three to twelve months
with los, of license.
3. 06,failuro to pay ,fines and costscimpris
°lament not exceeding three mouths, or. until
discharged by due course of law. '
4. Constables, Sheriffs or prosecuting At
torneys are fined from $5O to $lOO for refu
sing to infoim on and prosecute offenders
against this act.
6. Suits for penalties must be brought in
the name of the city or county. Any citizen
of tho county may prosecute—be a witness,
and receive half the penalty—the other half to
be paid over to the Guardians of the Putt..
Any Mayor or Judge of the Court of Quarter
Sessions, may revoke a license for violation.
of this act. No compromise of suits allowed.
TUE ACT TO RESTRAIN TILE BALE, ETC
1. All Drinking Rouses prohibited, and 'a
flue not exceeding $5O, with imprisonment
not exceeding one mouth, for selling and af
fording a place, inducement, or any other con
venience, where intoxicating liquor may be
suld or drank. For the second offence $lOO
and not exceeding three months imprisonment.
The same penalties when two or mere persons
combine, the ono to sell and the other to fur
nish a place for drinking or for aiding or ab -
betting.
2. All sales in less measure than a quart'
are prohibited. Courts of Quarter Sessions
may—not shall—grant licences to citizens of
the United States, provided they be of tem
perate habits, and give bond with two good
securities, in the sum of $lOOO, conditioned
for the faithful observance of al/ laws relating
to the sale of the said liquors, to be filed in
Court; on which bond fines and costa may
be collected, upon the conviction of the prin
cipal. The applicant for license must pre
sent his petition, have it lawfully advertised,
and the Court shall fix a time when objections
may be heard.
3. No hotel, tavern, eating.house, oyster.
house or theatre, nor any other place of re•
fregliment, or amusement, can receive license
to sell by any measure • whatever, and no un
naturalized person, under any circumstances.
4. Druggists are prohibited from selling
intoxicating beverages except when mixed
with other medicines.
5. Clerk of Quarter Sessions cannot . issue
a license until the bond has been filed, fees
paid and the cirtifleates furnished. Fees for
license, three times the present amount; but
no license granted for less thats3o.
6. Persons licensed to sell by the quart and
greater measure, must frame their license,
and place it conspicuously in their chief place
of business, or forfeit it and' . all the sales con
trary to this act, punished according to the
second section.
7. Constables, for wilfully 'failing to re
turn places kept in violation of this act, fined
net exceeding $5O, _and imprisonment from
one to three menthe.
- 8. Importers may sell in original pack
ages, wlthout'appraisemeet and license; com
missioned auotioneers aro also exempted;

THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC.
.zugßALEw's LAW
SUNDAY LAW
D\ESDAY, SEPTEMBER 26., 1855.
domestic producers, brewers and distillers
may sell liquor made by them in quantities net
less than jive gallons:
9. Appraisers of licenses, under this net
are according to former laws, except in Phila
delphia, where three reputable and temperate
citizens, in no way connected with, nor in
terrested in the liquor business shall be np
pointed annually by the Court of Quarter
Sessions.
From the foregoing synopsis of these laws,
the render will perceive that combined they
aim to produce the following results :
1. Entire Prohibition on Sunday.
2. The abolition of,all drinking houses, and
sales by the small quantity.
3. Entire Prohibition of sale to all persons
except temperate adults.
4. The transfer of liquor-selling from hotels
and eating-houses, to stores and other places
of business.
5. No-liquor to be sold by unnaturalized
citizens. •
6. The declaration by the State, that 'intox
icating liquor is no part of entertainment for
man er horse,' and the holding of persons
legally responsible for the damages resulting
from either gift or sale.
THE RETIRED NAVAL LIST.—The Washing
, ton Union publishes a letter to the President
from Secretary Dobbin, upon the report of the
Board of Naval Officers to prepare a retired
list of the officers of the Navy. The great end
sought to he attained by Congress was to pro
mote the efficiency of the Navy, "by removing
from active service list" all officers found incotu
' petent to do their whole duty efficiently and
promptly, both ashore and afloat, and by drop
ping entirMy from the rolls such as are to
blame themselves for their incompetency.—
The Secretary nays the law required the Board
to consist of five Captains, five Commanders
' and five Lieutenants, ordered by the President.
The peculiar fitness of the officers selected for
this delicate and arduous duty has been con
ceeded with remarkable unanimity, by both
officers and citizens. They were in session
many weeks ; they applied for and had pos
session of the records of the Department, there
were among them men of age and experience,
character and intelligence, and so clear in his
conviction of the correctness of their decree,
that he cannot withhold his approval, of the
report. - The President, in reply, says ho also
approves the finding.
' Webster in his- Marshfield
speech, Sept. 18, 1848, when alluding to the
men who then held the same position on the
question of slavery extension which is now
held by Nebraska Democrats, said :
'I am afraid, fellow citizens, that the gener
ation of "doughfaces' will bo as perpetual as
' the generation of men. " For my part, I. think
that •dougbfaco' is an epithet not sufficiently
reproachtul. I think such persons are dough
/Iwo, and dough-Aeods, and dough-.lonia and
they are all dough ; that the coarsest potter
may mould them at pleasure to vessels of hon
or or dishonor, but more readily to vessels of
dishonor.'
FROM TIIE PLAINS—INDIAN BATTLF.—ST.
Louis, Sept. 24.--We have intelligence from
the plains of considerable importance. A bat
tle was fought ou the 3d instant, near North
Fork, on the Platte river, between Gen. Mir
ney's command and the Sioux Indians. The
contest lasted for several hours, the Indians'
lighting furiously, but finally they were com
pletely routed, with 80 killed and 60 men and
women taken prisoners. General Harney lost
only six men killed and six wounded. The
Indians were the same party that massacred,
Major Grattan's command some time since, and
slaughtered the mail party.• The way-bill of
the mail was found in their possession.

THE MAINE Law tx 111.,tms.—The Portland

have been received but one person who voted
in favor of the present liquor law of that State
has been returned to the' legislature. The
exception.to the great revoluticn made in the
legislature is. Mr. Soammou of Saco. Ile will
be as much an object of mark in the next
General Court, as the solitary Domoorat was
in the MaosachusottaXtegislature last won ter.

immediately, married to the widow of the late
President PoLir. She' ig;' indeed, 'a lady for
ivliom one might gladly resign even so long
life of baolkelordom as his. -
GEN. SCOTT AND THE SECRETARY OF WAR.—
The Washington correspondent of the 'Times
speaks of a sharp correspondence going on be
tween Geu. Scott and the Secretary of Wer—
not us to his pay, which it is understood, the
administration withholds as yet—but—
"lt seems that some months since, Gen.
Scott gave Gen. Hitchcock, who has long been
an intimate personal friend,. leave of absence
for six months. The Secretary of .War imme
diately' wrote to Gen. Scott, demanding his
reas3ns for this act. of favoritism to Gen.
Hitchcock, and at the same time countermanded
the General's order, granting leave of absence.
Gen. Scott replied that he had granted the
leave. of absence because he had the right to
do it, and was convinced of its propriety—
that he Was not responsible to the Secretary
of War for his action in such cases; and that
lie would be obliged to him if he would hero
after have occasion to address him, write in
the name of the President of the United States
—as he was the only official superior whom ho
acknowledged. The General's letter was quite
as sharp as the Secretary's.
•
Secretary Davis, in reply, entered into a
very elaborate and detailed exposition of all
the alleged breaches of order and violations of
propriety committed by General Scott during
his whole military career! his letter is Very
long, and filled with the severest criticism of
the General's conduct!" It is intended to an
nihilate him completely in the confidence and
respect of the American people—which may
prove to be a more 'serious undertaking than
Secretary Davis imagines.
AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENTS.-11l Its report
of the Agricultural Exhibition just closed, the
Philadelphia Sun remarks: "Among the most
prominent in this department, those exhibited
by Messrs. Paschall Morris & Co. These
gentlemen „exhibited a hay and straw cutter,
(Daniels' patent,) of the improved construc
tion, which can be operated either by hand or
horse power. They also exhibited Dedrich's
Parallel Lever and Ilorizontal llay Presses;
(2 kinds,) Pennock's Drills; Atkin's Autonia
t.n Reaper and Raker ; Cooper's Improved
Lime end Guano Spreader; Gilbert & Ritten
house's horse Power, a new and evidently a
desirable article; a new pattern of a self-shut
ting gate; Krauser's Patent Cider and Wine
Mill, which can be operated either by hand or
hOrse power. These gentlemen have alsis
very large variety of superior agricultural im
plements of every description, such as rakes,
forkei spades and shovels."
LYNCH LAW IN lynching case
has recently occurred in Illinois, just over the
lino from Big Foot, Wisconsin. Oa Sunday,
the 9th instant, a young man named Coxen,
was nearly murdered by his father-in-law,
named McLane, and robbed of $375 The assult
was committed in the woods, and Cozen was
left for dead; but he revived, and managed to
crawl *to the house, both the parties residing
together. McLane was immediately arrested,
and the examination took place on Monday.
Notwithstanding Coxon's wounds and his di-
rect testimony as to the assault, McLane per
sisted iu denying the whole story. A largo
number of excited people were in attendance,
and, although they were satisfied that the law
would punish McLane for the assault, they
were determined that he should give-up the
money. DleLane was accordingly taken out
of the hands of the officers, a repo tied about
his neck, and he was suspended in the air
several times, when, more dead than alive, he
confessed his guilt and restored the money.—
The culprit was then given up to the officers,
and by them conveyed to jail.
TIIE NEW YORE FLOUR MARKET,-A letter
to the Philadelphia Inquirer, dated New York,
Thursday evening, says:
The flour market has been quite excited to - -
day, and prices of common and medium grades
have advanced la 2 shillings. Considerable
orders came out by the Baltic, and over 10,-
000 barrels were purchased by shippers. Six
thousand barrels of common State were
bought, to arrive next week, 2,000 barrels
Ohio, to arrive within two weeks, the former
at $8 and the latter at $8,12f. At the close
holders were firm, and insisted upon still
higher prices.
GUTTING ALARMRD.-At Philadelphia the
stock of the Cambon and Amboy Railroad has
declined $lO on a share, under the apprehen- -
sion that the company will have to pay heavy
damages frr the injuries suffered by the Bur
lington accident. We hardly wonder at the
fact when we perceive that one of the suffer
ers by the Burliugtou disaster says that as he
lay beneath the ruins, parched with heat, a
'hot liquid' came pouring down within reach
of his mouth, and he sipped it up eagerly.—
His physician has not yet deemed it advisable
to inform hint that the 'lot liquid' which •he
drank, was the blood of one of his fellow passen
gers who was lyinglibovelim, dead, crashed
almost to jolly. Such ;experience demands
compensation, from the monopoly ; and the
stockholders 4ro becoming naturally alarmed
for their goodi fat dividende.

STILL LATER PROM EUROPE.
ARRIVAL OF TILE BALTIC
NEW YJRK, Sept. 20.-=-The steamship Bal
tic arrived from Liverpool with dates to the
k sv
Bth, being one week later adviceti.
„The papers
by the Baltret are extraordinarily estitute of
news. There is not a single incident worth
reporting.
Generals Simpson and Pellissier telegraph
on the 3d that there is nothing new respecting
the Siege. The Russians are again threaten
ing an attack on the Tchernaya, hence the
allied army are continually on the alert, and
the parties remain constantly under arms.—
The question is whether the Russians will at
tack the Tchernaya lines or Balaklava, via
Mader Vally. General Simpson says that the
Russians are actively engaged in bridging the
harbor," and fortifying the north side and have
received reinforcement.
NO. 4.
There is nothing from the*Blaok Sea or Bal
tic. The Turkish Bulletin says that theßus
sinus have not the means to attack Kars and
thk, in a reeent,partial attack they suffered
loss.
There is no reliable information respecting
the negotiation, hitt it is reported that the
German powers are preparing a new pro
gramme to confine the war to its ostensible
objects.
There is not a word of political new of
interest if we except the rumor current in the
clubs that Great Britain intends to Call Naples
to account, and will make the recent insult of
the Neapolitan police to an attache of the
British embassy the groundwork of a quarrel.
The news of the death of the lion. Abbot
Lawrence was received in England with every
expression of sympathy; on the 7th the
American ships in port at Liverpool displayed
their flags at half-mast as a mark of respect
to the deceased.
The harvest throughout England is about an
average, being neither positively good nor the
reverse.
FLOUR SPECULATIONS
Efforts are making, says the Ledger in the
markets for Breadstutfs and Produce to main
.tain prices. The rot in the potato crop is
started at one point. nt one time, and in others,
at another, calculations are presented, show
ing that the supply of wheat and kye will not
exceed the demand at present prices. The
demand likely to exist in Europe for large
quantities of. bread and pork is also steadily
kept before the public, and very ingeniously
inserted paragraphs in the foreign news have
their influence in keeping up the same impres
sion. It is probable that France and England
will be purchasers, if the war against Russia
is continued, for a considerable portion of our
surplus of wheat and flour; but to what extent
is not yet apparent. The last news from the
other side is of a mixed character, and is not
yet fully digested. Most of the letters from
France contain orders for breadstuffs, and
these - are couched in very excitable terms,
characteristic of the Frenchman. The orders
from Great Britain are less numerous, but
most of the letters and circulars speak of the
probable necessity for large importations, not
withstanding the favorable weather for harvest,
much of the wheat having been winter killed.
The Batik of England scorns to look on all
these premonitory symptoms as the result of
design, and has raised its rate of interest
from 3 to 4 per cent., an advance of , not
on account of the scarcity of money, but to
Prevent speculation in breadstuffs; a further
advance will doubtless take place if this should
not prove sufficient.
Kansas.—The Kansas Herald of Freedom,
September Bth contains a full account of the
Kansas Free State Convention which assem
bled at Big Springs on the sth inst. The res
olutions declare that the interests of the in.-
habitants require that Kansas should be a Free
State; that free labor will best promote its
happiness, the rapid populatton, the prosper
ity and the wealth of Kansas. They approve
the admission of free negroes and mulattoes
into the territory, declare that they owe no
obedience to the acts of the present spurious
Legislature, and call the citizens to meet and
hold an election on the second Tuesday of Oc
tober, to choose a Delegate to Congress. The
Convention nominated Gov. Reeder for the
Territorial Delegate, and that gentleman has
accepted the nomination.
{VILA? sItOULD TRACEISILS EAT. —At the
American Association for the advancement of
education, Prof. Haldeman advocated the use
of highly phosphorized food for teachers, they
having much expenditure of brain. The rea
son why the Scotch were so intellectually a
cute and active, he attributed to the use of
oatmeal ip their youth. Oats contained more
phosphorus than any other vegetable. lie
also recommended eggs as excellent for teach
ers, in order to increase their intellectual ca
pacities.
MG EN, SCOTT'S BACK PAT.—The War Depart
ment, it is reported, has refused to Gen. Scott
the back pay attached to the post of Menton
ant General. This was to be expected.—
Months have been taken to decide a point that
should never have been raised; and now the
veteran is denied the alight remuneration
which Congress designed to give him.
