4 temperance (l^olum WOMAN AND WINE Pop ! went the gay cork flying. Sparkled the gay champagne ; By I he light of the day that was dying, lie filled up the goblets again. I.et the last, best toast he woman, ' Woman, dear woman," said he, Empty your glass, my darling. When you drink to your sex with me. But she caught his strong brown fingers, And held ihein tight aj in fear. And through the gathering twilight IIer fond voice fell on his ear : '.Mxy, ere yuu drink I implore you, lly nil that you hold divine. Pledge a woman in lear drops, * ltuilier by far tban wine. lly tlie woes of ihe drunkard's mother, lly the children that begged for brea.l, I?v the fact of her whoso loved one Looks on the wine when 'tis red; lly the kisses turned to curses, lly the tears more bitter than brine, lly many a fond heart broken, Pledge no woman in wine. What lias wine brought lo woman? Nothiug hut tears and piiu, It has torn from her heart her lover And proven her prayers in vain ; And her household goods all scattered. Lie tangled up in the vine ; Oh ! I prithee, pledge no woman In the curse of so mauy-wiNK." Whiskky Groceries.?Every citizen of the State, Utah* and female, who confesses to any duty to self and society, ought to engage now and for life, in an active war of extermination upon those pest houses of iufamy which sell and give liquo.* to uteu, women and children, uud>r the guise of keeping a grocery. The corner grocery or any other grocery that sells liquor is a viler and incauer and more poisouous institution than the open salcou or brothel : it catches the iunoccut aud unsuspecting; entraps and deceives and schools its victims to become graduates of both those dens of vice, or to sink into besotted hautrors-on and nrofcssinnnl lnnf>>rs nf o r * tho grocery. Women aud children have a chance of 1 escape from ihc pitfalls of the grogshop and i beer di"c,but the rum grocery is the devil's decoy duck, to catch those who avoid the ( open pitfalls of sh line, acd insidiously (it theui for the jail and the poor-house and the morgue. No one who cares al all for tho welfare i ot his family or tho couiuiuuity ought to | patronize one of these filthy deadfalls, these poisoners, these worst corrupters of the public morals, these pauper and thief factories. ! And surely every person of ordinary in tell i- | gence should know that a grocer, who for a i few dimes will poison his customers and their i wives and children, ought not to be trusted to sell food, nor be expected to deal lion- , estly in any respect ?The lle&cnc. , .? 1 Beer Drinking Women.?It is a i piinlul truth that many women of who n we i would expect better things are in he habit of drink'.ug beer and encouraging their , families in doing so. If there ever was a , time when women needed to t ike a stand < for the right, it is now when this question | is before the people. , There are no class who suffer from th? results of intemperance so keenly us do women , and there are few women who have not some near one entangled in tho meshes of a cruel hut e.lin ?inir Tli,? r,..l. a?a -n? |",U' lie expects aud has a right to expect thu< woiiieu take the lead in setting up a high standard of morals before the people. We must admit that great harm comes from draui drinking, and that it is a very dangerous practice It behooves every thoughtful and well-meaning woman to give this matter serious thought. We can not afford to continue a practice that is in any way corrupting or compromising with wrong. It is evident that many people drink be- 1 cause they imagine it gives them an air of ' respectability, and to strip this foul practice i of its respectability is what every respccta- > ble woman should endeavor to do. < In tiik GuTTP.il.?-John Tcbin, who was oucc president of the Hudson ltiver Hail- ( road, a great stock operator, and reported to be worth atone time 85,000,000, was lock- i cd up for drunkenness in New York one 1 night last week, having been picked up in the streets in a destitute condition. He was formerly a wholesale liquor dealer, went from that into snfinill.it.inn nnrl Iv.fifitrwj 11 with J.)rcw_ ajid \ andcrlnlt drew his accounts from the banks and carried home 81,(500,000, in greenbacks, ( besides other bonds and securities. When llarlem stock went up from 89 a share to ' 8179 he made immense sums. Vanderbilt bought a controlling interest in Hudson Jtiver stock and deposed Tobin from the i presidency. He met with great losses I after 186G,his desperate fortunes declined. ' old habits grew worse, and in a few years J ho became the dissolute beggar he now is , ?a melancholy example of human lolly i and vicissitude. The last dog story is told by a a Geor* gia paper, the Americas /l-'pitbfictn. It is , to tlio offjJt th it a tYnily i i til it town i having a falsa grato in one of the rooms of the house placed soma ro 1 piper behind it 1 to give it the effect of fire. One cold day ' the house dog came in from out of doors, and seeing the paper in the grate, lay d >svn to , receive the heat a.i it cautc fra 11 the (iro. 1 1 > Acd over lii> shoulder at"ff!o gratojfieffing 1 no heat, he applied his noso to tiic grate and smelt of it. It was cold as ice. With his tnil curled between his legs the disgusted dog trotted out of the room, not even casting a look at tho party in tho room. It is said that the prohibitory liquor laws have proved a failure. Tho same may be said of the laws prohibiting burglary. The country is full of burglars and their outrages nro boldly committed nightly. Wonder if our wiso legislators will not soon abandon thoir "fanatical" attempts to prohibit burg- | lary and adopt a system of "regulation" and "license." If the people will commit burg? *ary, why not make thorn contribute something to support the state ? Here's a chance for "revenue."? Worrrn Tribune.

Tiik K vu.no.u> Problkm.?Tho hope that th< Stales of ihcmselves could solve this intricat problem and remedy the evils tlntt have arisei out of the cupidity and corruption of c ur rail roan management nave proven to lie lalacious Hail vay commissions have been appo.nted it more than twenty States, but they are powerles over the roads the moment the geographicn boundaries of their respective Commonwealth: are passed. There is no unity of action bctweei them. One policy prevails in one Stale au< another in another. Some local relief has beer obtained since their organization, but the broad question of regulation as between State and State is still to be settled. The necessity ol bringing the inter-State lines under some om controlling power is conceded on every hand, and there seems to be noplace to lodge it exeep in the hands of the General Government. Tht experience of every day shows that the railroac managers cannot he trusted. Neither the intci ests of their own stockholders nor of the farmer the merchant or the consumer are safe in thei hands. Directors of roads, individually or col lectivcly, build rival routes to their own line and then vote for a consolidation at an enormou advauce on the actual cost of the work. This i simple robbery of their own stockholders. "Wars' arc made from time to time for purely specula live purposes ill Wall street aud London.

In ancient I times few persons, except those in holy orders, .oould rpad, and accordingly tho test a for an aceusod person claiming benefit of clergy was his ability to read." If he could ' uot, the courts would uot part with the ^ defendant, but proceed to try hiui as if he were a laymau. Afterward, when education became more general, other persons i besides clergymen were able to read ; and so, in the reigu of Edward III., parliament j cxteuded tho privilege of clergy, us it is . called, to clorklv laymen until the reign of Elizabeth. Women were not allowed their } clergy uutil the'reigu of William and Mnry, ' when parliament extended the benefit to | t) them. Iu the reigu of Iloury VII, liowu ever, u blow wasuiuied at this singular privilege as enjoyed by laymon. and a statute I was then passed against "diverse persons ' lettered, who have been uiorc bold to cotu, uiit murders, robbery, theft, as well as all f other mischievous deeds," which enactod that persons ''not within holy orders" ac* cused of theso offenses and convicted thereof, wero, in cases of murder, to bo marked j with the letter "M" on the brawn of tho left :i thumb, and iu all others with the letter "T," to deuote, it is prosumcd, that tho pcrsou 1 had been guilty of thoft. In cases of high treason, benefit of clergy wore never allow j od ti) be pleaded. It is stated 'hit when an - accused person claimed his clergy it was 5 usual to test his learning by requesting him ' to read the Grst verse of the fifty first Psalm, which in Latin begins with the words, j "Miserere uiei Dcus."' Iu additou to the cxtraodinary character of this proceeding, in which a touch of griin humor seems perceptible, its absurdity is apparent, for, of courseuicu might easily have coached themselves up in the required test. The ecclesiastical judge, who was generally the bishop, might, however, have given the defendant anyth ng else to read ; and in cither case, in the event e of his inability to comply, might have hane ded him over to the law, and this procccd1 ing gcucrally meant death. A custom which favored criminals solely on account of their good cducutiou appears to us, who a live in times when it is justly thought that I superior intelligence adds a stain to criui iuality ot any kind, to be iu the highest J degree absurd ; yet we are told by able ( writers that the beneGt of clergy, or loarning?for 'clergy" is here tantamount thereto 1 ?was not so ridiculous as icseems.
