It only proves thai the friends of the liquor traffic rallied more voters than the friends of prohibition. It is Still true that the liquor traffic is a curse to individuals and to the community at large, indicting evils beyond computation. It is still true that it is a crime against tli0 moral and physical well-being of society to sustain an institution of this character. Aud it is still true that whiljrfhe social and po litical evils of its continuance will fall on all alike, there is a tribunal where eachf must answer for himself for the conse quences of its perpetuation. I From this view of the subject, the friends jjf the cause cannot relax one iota of their opposition to the traffic. On the contrary, they must renew; their cljorts .vith increased energy and! avail them selves of every proper power to suppress an evil with which they are: in some re- spects inseparably connected, ami for. which they arc in common either directly or indirectly responsible. (They cannot afford to be abashed by the sneers of those. who glory1 in the recent liquor victory, and will not be. The Acw? has under rated them if it thinks so, Sand will yet discover its error in its treatment of the subject.

The Statist, referiina to the failure of David Stuart & Co., of Liverpool, says: ''Hojies are entertained that the firm of Manchester bankers which was thought to lie involved in the Liver pool failure, will be able . to escaoe sua pension, its largest creditor having ar ranged to take up hisiiills aud assistance trom banks lieing therefore exneeted ; but the gradual liquidation of the banking firm can hardly lie avoided. The cause of the difficulties is a lock-up of capital It is not probable that even in the worst eveut the matter will have important cous:nences in London, but in Manches ter other failures are expected to follow. and it is said that poor Irish emigrants who are iu the habit of sending mouey to their friends at home will lie heavy suf ferers by the Liverpool failure.'' .

A Chaxoe op Fron't. The Ioaisville Age, n.n alleged iudepeudeut paier which at first saw nothing but staleuess in Sen ator VanceVi recent speech, has experi enced a change of heart with reference to that gentleman and his speech and in its last issue has this good word for both: ; Wit wins Its way faster than wisdom. Few men have so quickly attracted the national attention as Senator Vance. In fact, before he arose at all on the floor of the Senate, the news got abroad that the staid dignity of the senatorial fathers was to be relieved, and the press entered into serious discussions about the value of fun in national politics. lint the wires were made merry even with the condensed and blurred transmission of his jokes in his first speech the otlier day. 1 1 seems prob able that the whole nation is willing to give its attention to Mr. Vance, as his own constituency have done for many years. At home ne isjtne most popular man that his State ever produced. He will soon joke his way into a national reputation. IFortnnately, too. he has not merely wit but wisdom also. -Wood Leaves.

Toward the close of the reign of Louis XV. there was a repurt spread that a number of children had disappeared; and serious riots ensued when it was asserted that they had been kidnapped for his Majesty, who had been ofdered to bathe in the bl od of c ildren. With the beginning of the present ses sion the Democrats iu both houses took their stand iu opposition to the odious Federal election laws, the use of the army at thefiolls, and the'contimiance in practice of tfce infamous jurors test oath. From this position they have never wa vered.
