In those times there were customs in vogue which have passed away, and of which the; present generation have no knowledge. One of these was the great abundance of spirituous, liquors provided for the crowd of voters who came to town to vote and participate in the excite ments- usually attendant upon those oc casions. There were more licensed liquor shops then than now, and liquors were vastly cheaper'and 'more easily obtained. Whisky, peach and apple ' brandy, cider and cider royal were the most common drinks, and "sold at from ten to twenty cents per quart, and cheaper still by the gallon. They were not only obtainable at the licensed shops, but from country wagons (large, covered vehicles), which were always early on the ground, com pletely surrounding the court-house, which then stood in what is now known .1... ....,,,!;.. cminwA ' ' nrliAM t V Ct 'ti l(T Wan I lit" jiuuiiu sijuuic,' vt in vuv ruuug was done.

Whole day, some of them holding on until O j late in the night. Almost everybody S 1 drank more or less, and manv to excess. ; As a matter of course there was much i drunkenness ; and when politics were ex citing, party spirit ran high, and fights were common. That was before the little pistol became an article of wearing ap parel and the hip pocket was dreamed of. Men who "fell out" squared themselves, sometimes threw off hat, coat, vest, and tied their suspenders around their body, and went at it with all their might, "fist and skull."' and "never quit until one or the -other 'cried "nuff," or "take him off." Then the crowd would rush in and sepa rate them ; and then: the friends of the victor would crow, or make other demon strations of joy ; and about nine times out of ten, bring on another "set to" anoth er, and another. As many as thirteen fights have taken place on the ' Court -House hill," as it was then called, within half as many hours. But there was little or no malice in anv of them were out burst of momentary passion and "too much whiskey." By the time the pugilists had washed oil the dirt and blood and got their hurts patched up, they were hunt ing up eachother to beg pardon and make friends : so that this rough play was really little more than the base ball amusement of the present dav. It was exceedingly rare that any malice was dis coverable in the broils thus occurring. Now and then an individual would ac quire the reputation or extraordinary fighting abilities, and it was sure to give him a plenty of it to do. Such an one could rarelv go to a public gathering without being challenged, and often com pelled to fight. Men in liquor have no fears and always feel five times stronger than they really are.

Three months later, on! Nov. 1, 1861, when Gen. Scoot retired, he was appointed the commander of all the armies of the United States. This office, however, he did not Ions exercise. Being reliev ed of it with own consent, devoted himself to reorganizing and disciplin ing the Army of the Potomac, and to preparing it for a decisive movement against the enemy. He took command of this army in the beginning of August, and in March, seven months afterwards, he began his active campaign in the peninsula of Virginia. We shall not here under take to narrate the history of that tre mendous ; and disastrous struggle, be ginning with the seige of Yorktown and ending with the retreat to Har rison's Landing. It is enough to say that while it resulted in failure and in volved an immense calamity to the Union cause, it was yet relieved by in cidents of brilliant valor aj:d fortunate combination; and while Medlellan must doubtless be held to a severe res ponsibility, he enjoyed at the end of it to an extraordinary degree the con fidence of his soldiers and the devoted friendship of the officers who had shar ed with him the horrors, the misfor tunes, and the glories of'the campaign.

''Dost like the picture.-' but why do we say Sherman will possibly not be returned, is it asked ? iiecause as the Cleveland Plain Dealer says : "When the Senate convenes there will be no senators from Hamilton county holding legal certifi cates. If the four Republicans present themselves they will not be sworn in. Without them there will be only sev enteen Republican senators less than a quorum and they cannot organize the senate. The Democratic senators will never permit so gross a usurpation of authority to be carried out if it is undertaken, and they will not sit in the senate if it is attempted.

Many good citi zens, deploring such a state of abounding dissipation and immorality, labored hard to arrest it, and it was long before they were able to make any perceptible im pression. But the work commenced here in 1832 was continued with un- abating zeal until public sentiment final ly crystahzed against it, and we have it down to- what it is at the present dav. Under the old system the legal frater jiity had much more work to do, and made more money than under the -new. Whether or not this accounts for the fact that lawyers, as a general rule, have not been leaders in temperance movements, the writer will not under take to say. But it is noteworthy that wherever liquor drinking is prohibited, there indictments for disorderly conduct are lew, courts are less expensive, and society least disturbed. By-Gone. How to Make Good Coffee. You published from the Atlanta Constitu tion a Georgia woman's recipe for making coffee. -It's nonsense. Her coffee is al lowed to boil awhile. Thus she gets rid of the fine aroma and extracts the tannin, which is not healthful. Now, let any woman who has not a reputation for fine coffee try this recipe : Buy the best coffee and grind: it to the consistency of corn meal. Into a French teapot put an ounce of coffee for every person. One pound of cofiee will make sixteon cups and no more. Have everything clean, and as soon as the water in the kettle begins to boil moisten the coffee and leave it to soak and swell for three minutes ; then add a little more water ; don't be in a hurry ; continue to add water until you have obtained not more than a large cof fee cupful of the extract. If carefully done the entire virtue of the coffee will be in the cupful of liquor at the end of five minutes. For four persons use a quart of pure mik and have it piping hot ; heat the large cups by pouring into them hot water ; now divide the coffee into the four cups, each of which will be one quarter full ; fill with the boiling milk. This is pure breakfast coffee, the coffee of the gods, of which no man after drinking would be so base as t call for a second 26 131 133 143 142 148 152 MOTION DOCKET.

Death of Genu McClellan. The sudden death of Gen. 0eorge Bnnton McUlellan of heart disease at his home in Orange, N. J., yesterday, removes one of the most conspicuous accomplished, and interesting public men of the country. He was a native of Philadelphia, and had nearly completed his fifty-ninth year. From his youth he was marked with distinction, and when he gradua ted from the military academy at West Point in 1846 he was made an officer in the elke corps, the engineers. In the Mexican war he won two brevets, and in 1856 he was sent to the Cri mea to observe the operations of the allied war against Russia. A year later he left the army, and became chief engineer of the Illinois Central Kailroad. i Immediately after President Lin coln's call for troops, the' Governor of Ohio made McClellan a Major-General in the volunteer force of that State; but so great was his military reputa tion that he was almost immediately cup.

Sk&SS Virginia that he received the thanks of Congress, and directly after the battle of Bull Rim he wasorlered to Wash ington and put in command of the A Vermont Soldier on Poraker. Gen Foraker. the Governor elect of Ohio, said in the course of one of his bloody shirt harangues in New York : "The South does not want to fight. They got all they wanted 20 years ago. There was a time when they claimed a South Carolinian was four times as good as any Northern man. We chopped that out of them with the sabre, and punched it out of them with the bayonet." This has not been answered from the South, probably because ijt is really beneath contempt, but it has called forth a response from the North, from Vermont and from a veteran of the tJnion army. This old soldier writes to the Portland Herald the follow ing : '"lie writer was, for a time, a Union soldier, and has been an ardent Republi can since! the election of Lincoln. He has no sdrt of sympathy with sentimental and artificial enthusiasm over the blend ine of blae aud gray, when the right and the wrong of the great fight is lost to view ; but it does grate narsniy on an honest Union soldier's ears who knows how solendidlv the South speiit its best blood tike water, and endured every pos sible sacrifice for their dreadful mistake, to read such words as those used by i or aker. The Vermont soldiers who saw Pickett's charge at Gettysburg ; who saw -V A A ' A J 1 f even in Lee s last retreat a nanoiui oi half-starved Confederates desperately charge Getty's whole division at Sailor's creek, know that no braver men ever stepped down to death than composed the armies of the South, and it is shame ful to be always throwing their defeat in their faces. "They saw our backs at Bull Run. at Gaines' Mill, at Fredericksburg, at Cnancellorsville and at Chickamauga, and they made a drawn battle with only 45,000 against 85,000 at Antietam ; and, while it is fair to say that they were wrong and that we were eternally right, it is low and vulgar and uu chivalrous, at 20 years distance from their defeat, to twit them with our having chopped and punched the fight out of them. So we -did, and: it was right to do it ; but it is mean to boast of it over a people whose courage made them worthy of all sol dierly courtesy. Their valor is part of the proud record of the nation for courage Sand military hardihood; they ! exacted J two drops of blood for every one wej drew from tnem; they never Good Cooking Will TelL She wanted to break her husband of the habit of drink, and began to cook his food in liuuor, having heard that it would prove effectual.
