the novelty as well as his earnest elo- CU

Talking of Temperance, we need some
uncommon sensation of the kind, for crimes w
arisnmg from drunkenness, are becoming, it
with us, positively alarming in their char- f
arctr, and frequency. A woman has just o
been sent to prison for murdering her hus- n,
band, while under the influence of liquor. ir
Another woman has been arrested for ta- ti
king two husbands, who gave itebriety as
a reason for her ofyence. A man was con- i
victed of murder on Wednesday, whose it
a
guilt may be traced to the same source,and i
live others are waiting their trial for capi.
tal crimes attributable to intoxication. By s
and bye, we shall want a Maine Law to z
stay this torrent of wickedness. I

Considerable anxiety exists here in rela
tion to newspaper postage. The present
Law is most redicuoun and most unequal.
and we are making great exertions for its
mo:hfication. We thi. k that one cent post
age is quite a tax enough on knowlelge of
this kind. and we feel confident of being
able to accomplish something like this
anendmnent, for the current Law is really
obnoxmous. Of course you feel interested
in this amusement.
We forget whether we told you or not
about the nen monving in -Respectable So- I
ciety," who were arrested with us the other
day as part of a band of forgers. It turns
out that. they have abstracted some 8100,.
t00 from the Banks. Two more were cap
turod yesterday, and they have told some
extraordinnry and romantic stores involving
some rather distinguished men. Yet, it t
ony be a hoax.
