DECEMBER 8, 1885. 8j!BSCKI<>TION |2 00 liHlnkliKr ( > Wimllillotnn x/i iiiniHf^ > (* Hu?>Hn?v? , It ik said that drinking is decreasing lit Washington. J do not believe this to bo so, writes a correspondent of the Cleveland Leader. Fewer people drink at the saloons, perhaps. But it has come to be that every public man has his cell:;r- stocked with wines and | _ brandies, and liquors are sold by the quantity instead of by the glass. All cf the grocery stores at Washington keep large stocks of liquors, from Miimra's extra dry champagne down to a very cheap article of whiskey, and wax Riirl wins HinrPK in nnnrlv pv. ' " ~ "" ' ery block. In no city in the United Status, except, perhaps, New Orleans, is there so much wine drank in proportion to the population. M?ny families neversif. down to a meal without having wine on the table, and at a Washington hotel, where public men stop, it is a rule to take a bottle of wine with your dinner. Within the last two years punch has become very popular at Washington, and you will new find a big punch bowl at almost every fashionable gathering. It is quite an art to make a fine Washington punch, and it takes very little of the article to cause the knees to quiver and the head to swim. One receipt contains the ingredients, whiskey, rum, claret, champtigne sugar and lemons. A little water added to this, and you have a drink that will put au old toper under the taMe after halt niR usual allowance. emu, mis stuff is given to young men and maidens. There is a good deal of difference in the United States as to drinking men from the North and East and from California drink wine, while those from the West and South take Whiskey and beer. Kentuckians usually taKe whiskey straight and Wisconsins are fond of r , their own Milwaukee lager. Senators Frye and Blair are said to be the only Senators who are tetotallers, There was a Senator naiued Jadwin in the Forty-Seventh Congress who never sat % down to a meal without having a teacup of hot water placed before htm. He seasoned it with crain and sugar, and drank it as other people do coffee. Congressman HUtcli. of Missouri, is also is hot water drinker, and Hrucken ridge, of Arkansas, takes it with every meal. These hotwnter drinkers advocate the (practice as a cure for dispepsia and indigestion, and they sny they become as fond of the drink as of tea, coffee, or whiskey. A Showman's Grief and Suicide. New Orleans, November 26.?The %-\ . coroner this morning held an inquest on the bodies of Charles L. Davis, proprietor of Davis' Circus, and antiie Wiggleman, his wife, as they lay dead in their sleeping room at the Southern Hotel, on Carondelet and Julia streets. It was shown by the testimony of Charles ! Graff, a yound lad, cousin of Mr. Davis, that last night when the killing occurred, Davis and his wife wo partially undressed preparing for bed. Davis, who kept several pistols, was cleaning a re- ] volvcr, when it was discharged, the ball I..entering me cnest ot ins wife sideways, .going downward in a diagonal direction ihrough the heart and coming out in the back just above the waist. As soon as Davis discovered what had happened he sent Graff for a doctor. Other persons in the house heard the alarm and entered the room. Mrs. Davis was found lying upon the bed, to which she had been lifted, and gasping. Her husband pat by her side embracing her and imploring her to speak to hi in. Mr. ^'hornton, proprietor of the hotel, observing the revolver on the bed picked fct up, when Davis said: 'Tut that <down, leave everything as it was.'* Dayis then seized the revolver and with a sudden desperate movement applied it to his bead behind the right ear and ilred. His death was almost instantaneous. The jury found the death of Mrs. Davis to have resulted from accident, and that of Mr. Davis from suicide. Relatives of the deceased couple were cumtuunicated with. ' J. P. Janoby. a prominent lawer of , lioumenia, is now visiting the United States to study its judicial system He has been sent out by his government to tmuMjr vnv juuiciai ana legislative systems of the leading nations of the world with a view of making reforms in Ilia own country.

A remarkable will case in Hancock country has been attr. v l.ing attention in in the state, and will be extensively noticed thougliout the Union if Northern journalists have the fairness to see the point and emphasize the moral. T' % facts are essentialy these, as the Chronicle'if readers ulready know: A prominent farmer in Hancock country dies, leaving a bequest of $300,(XX), out , of an estate worth $400,000, to a colored i woman who dwells in the same count}' : with deceased. The matter naturally created considerable talk; the will was j contested, nnd the caveators?the re- , latives of the dead man?were among , the most respectable white citizens in the country of Hancock. The contest 1 was long and stubborn, i he caveators had gathered the best legal talent around i them. Hon. N. J. Hammond, Hon. N. E. { Harris. John Rutherford, of Macon, and < others. The propounders were protect- 1 ed by Hon. Seabourne Reese, Judge 1 Hon. Chas. W. DuBose, and the legal Little, Col. John T. Jordan and , conflict was profound and prolonged, i The jury was composed of twelve i white citizens of the county and the $300,000 was promptly awarded to the colored woman who had been named as the heir. The white relatives were en- j tirely excluded, and the verdict shows tho dwnnuitinn rtf tho whitn nnnnln tn accord equal justice to the colored rnee, and to protect them in all their rights. Cincinnati Commercial Gazcttee please copy one time.?Augusta Chronicle. ( Judge Ahlrich. In commenting upon the alleged probability of opposition to tho rc-elcction of Judge Aldrich the Winnsboro JYetr.v ond Herald says: "There is, indeed, no good reason why Judge Aldrich should be made an exception to the rule vrb'ch our Legislatures have heretofore fo.-owed in n-taining the incumbent Judges in their places. < Judges Aldrich's official record, obtained c ?i.. e u uui me inguuM fiuuruu ui inlurmiiuon? ^ the reported decisions of the Supreme Court?is very creditable. Since his election in 1877 he has done his full share of the important work of elevating < the bench of the State to the position it \ occupied before the country previous to 1 reconstruction. Ilisliealth, which was at one time such as to interfere a little with the regular dischange of his circuit duties, has now so far improved as to relieve him of eny embarrassment in , this regard. Without undertaking to ? pass any judgment upon the merits of the several gentlemen who have hepn mentioned for the office, we may be permitted to express the hope that J udgo Aldrich will be re-elected without difficulty?we should prefer without opposition. I JLIK'KJ jacK. Mr. T. C. Crawford, of the World i writing from Washington shows, in the case of Gen. Logan how the improbable s tmetimes happens. Six months ago he was defeated for the Vice-Presidency, hopeless of the Senate, and about dead broke pecuniarily. Now he is a Senator, may be a Vice-President, by brovet, and stands as a kind of Pate to Cleveland and the Democrats Besides this, a bit of real estate that he bought on credit, his increased in value three-fold and made him a snug little fortune. The fortuitous change in his circumstances will boom a book he is soon to publish, and make it sell profitably. Logan is in luck. i.apt. if. it.

Since then Mr. LlUKD has recommended Area's Sabsafakiixa In many aimilar oases, and he has never yet heard of its failure to effect a radical enre. Some years ago one of Mr. Liuxtfs farm laborers braised his leg. Owing to the bad state of his blood, an ogly scrofulous swelling or lump appeared on the injured limb. Horrible itching of the skin, with burning and darting pains through the lump, made life almost intolerable. The leg became enor* stonily enlarged, and running ulcers formed, discharging great quantities of extremely offensive matter. No treatment was of any avail until the man, by tar. Lklaxd's direction. waa sunDlted with Atii's Sabsapa BiLitA, wbicli allayed the pain and irriUtloa, healed the aorea, removed the aweUlnf, and completely restored the limb to dm.
