JUDGE BliONSON-S OPINION OF THE A IN E A W Judge Bronson has written a brief opinion against the Maine Law as in force in New York. He a.-sumes, first, that it takes an unwarrantable liberty with existing rights to property, by denying to the owner thereof the right to sell it. Secondly, that tho legislature cannot make a thing a nuisance by declaring it to be such. Third, that although excessive drinking is an evil, it does not follow that lhe moderate use of liquor is a sin against either God or man from the time of Noah down it has been practised, and neither the Saviour nor Paul foibade it. Fourth, it reverses rules of evidence, afflicts grievous penalties, is directed a particular class, is retroactive, tfce., &c., and fifth, even though the law is valid it does not apply to imported liquors. He closes by hoping, that no man will distrust the Judiciary, but wait patiently the action of the legal tribunals.

THE EXODUS.—The Cincinnati Enquirer states that at least a thousand of the foreign population from Louisville arc now in Cincinnati. Js*

What a melancholy commentary on the recent tragedy and how it must touch not only the feelings but the pockets of the people of Louisville. A thousand foreigners are equal lo one million dollars abstracted from the wealth of the community. And this calculation is a moderate one.
