Tili Llii-L 6 m 1 1 A few weeks aje a girl uf Jin BrookII! In th charge of ths overseer of the poor. Her father being a nan la com fortall . circumstances, the question wit Im every body's mouth why la tb Is? Th general answer was that her fathtr wia a drunkard, and that ha bad cruel! beaten her.and that aht had died la con sequence. V took great pains t ascertain the facta in tho case, and, on inquiry of two of the neighbors of Mr. Jones.tbo common report waa confirmed, with additional eireumataueea of cruelty. Aaa faithful recorder of passing erente, we felt it a duty we owed the publie who were vailed upon to pay the ezpenaea caused by the sickness and death of the Irl, to make the facta known. .We never heard the common report denied, until a week after the publication,'' Far ther Inquiry convinced ua that we had received a wrong version of tho itory, and at the next Uaue of the paper we 1 corrected it. But the liquor sellers, who re, and cf right should be, afraid of our recording the deaths ef so many of their victims, were too well pleased with the mistake too allow such ar. opportunity for troubling os,tosllp. Hence, by their attorneys, Jones and Berry; thoy prevailed on the father of th girt, a Mr. Jones, living on Wolf Creek, to bring suit of libel. We were In due form summoned before Judgo Reld. and the result of thr investigation waa that, we had not wilfully misrepresented tho facts, but thit we had been misled by others, end thit we should, give Mr. Jones a certificate to that effect almost identical with the "correction" we pub lished last week, in tho American; and that we should pay Mr. Jonea twenty dollars, to enable him to pay hit tawyert fee. Of the lattrr part of the judgment of the court we shall apeak hereafter. If n net of unprincipled lawycra can In ducc one man to bring a slander or libel auit against another, and If even the plaintiff in .convinced that there was nomalace If every body Is satisfied It U only one of such mistakes ss the most careful will be Jed Into, at times, and yet tho defendant must pay the plain tiff's lawyers' fee, we will soon have suits of this kind without number. But mure on this subject at another time. . . Wc rcgird this suit not s one brought by the frthcr of tho cirl. ner ss in any sense to hia advantage. We had made jut precisely the correction before the trial that we were req iired to make by the discussion of the Judge. Every sen aillo man knew that I1 a court of law, fact could bo proven that wiuld wholly exonerate ua Irnm liability, Why then waa it brought! Simply to deter ua from making mention of ao many painful dentin th-t grow out of this nefarious liquor traffic. Tho Walked murderera who sre worse than stabbing our fellow citizen do not want their work of death held up in It trn light. When one o their victims U drswued, they want ua to say "came to his death by accidental drowning." . When ona dies of delirium tirniena, or in a t'runkea fit, It ia to be stlriht:" ' In "a vi-ltutlon of God. - We hav Uoi ' M, more than once, that this will icarn Ub i. -n f to our own business, and not be mUi' much about tho (CVcta of linuc-r Sellins. No tnin ho knows will think so for e mo ment. Deter uu from exposing the (nui and vorder of the liquor sellers by such a course! No, fellow citizen, we are qiadd of tcrticr sluffthan to bo driven from our purros by any such means Wfcili wo met In our dally walks tho son of sumo our best citizens, wln are ruined, rcelinj, rum-rottened victims of dram shops, who have spent,' or are eprndlng.tlt proceeJs of tho honest industry of thüir parent, in tlebaushery and drunkenness, wo will not be silent. Whllo wc see tho children of some who yet live, though' but boys, dragged into the uYn of death,whic.h our laws license and protect,' we will not be silent. White wo ca parents, whose sons and daughters are a'iko suffering from the curs?, and who will even sell a daughter's hubbstitl. and a daughter's happi ness,to procure the favor of dranvdrinkere at the election, we will not be silent. ' We even challenge that ai&anJ honest Un firm. Jones & Berry, to keep a sharp look out, on our language that they may got another fee. Wo will not bo silent, though they institute a score of libel suits, and rob our children of the juet cumin? of our hand. They may havi all lacy can get of us in that way. And, after ell who has been slandered! How greut has been our of once) We admit th it Mr. Juu did Dot beat his girl in a Jruaken fit, that she died of tho wounJ, as wo at first learned. Yet, acruriiirg to Mr. Jones' own admission before the court there is too much foundation for the rumors. Mr. Jones admits thut be ia a dram-drinker, that he drinks when he pleases,' and as much as he picas; a. To what excess such t one is exposeJ every man knows. He admits also, that he whipped bis daughter, a young woman. He admits that she Jolt boons at or about the time of the whippin;, and that she died in the care of the overseers of the poor. What his daughter said of that whipping, nay be ascertained by inquiry ol those who wire present during her last illness. ' We close this notice merely by say ing that those w ho sre rejoicing over thia transaction may rejoice. Those who sre saying that we confessed tot ttil'ulliein tho certificate, kto tfa t they sre 'lira und calumniators. Tl ey are mrn too mean and low lor even the conti rr pt, of a decer.t man.

The prohibitory law of this Slate is more atringent in some respects than the famous Maine Law itself. Having found by experience that the only way of detecting the villainous rumseller, in many instances, was through the rum drinker, they have legislated accordingly. A clause providei that if a man be found drank, he may be imprUoced until be tell who furniahed him with the liquor. If he refuse, ht is fined 825 for drunkenness ; but i: he informs on the liquor eellcr, he U permitted to go "scot free." The person having told the liquor, is subjectd to fine of 820 and the cost ol proseca'ion ; for every subsequent of fen 10 8130, and imprisonment for tuless than three nor more than six months. The peaalty is equally applicable alike to clerks, agents, an servants, as well as the principle. Ni 'loubuare ente ruined a. to the en forctment of tbe law.

France have landed Jo various psrti of Turksy remote from the scat of war, where It was Impossible for their sol dlers to do anything but devour the stores of the commissariat, and dio of (evi-r of the country. Having long sun cesafully defended SilUtria sInat tho Russians, exhibiting a degree of cour age and gallantry which will hardly bo surpaarcd by their allies, if they shoulj ever get to smell gun pewdor, they have st length, compelled the enemy to raise the seige. and retire across the Danube. This is the greatest achievement of the wir, and will cjj a thrill of delight wherever in the world there is a hater of Russia injustice. The continued success of the Turk Ish arms can hardly be regarded with satisfaction by the Alied Power. The immenso parade they have made first of diplomacy and then f armies, has si resulted in nothing. Turkey has gone (i 11 uuir l, r siiiu nicuuisva u. 1 . 9 hi is a iiiu 1 m ...f sira1 ei t A at A 1 I a A fn sä f t n t (1 rf .

Aa Turkey Las shown her ability to defend herself, perhaps the English and French exchequres may be saved from further depletion, by the io glorious return of ihcir soldier, with out striking a blow. At ony rate, so far as any good they have done to Tur key is concerned, they might almost as well never baro set foot on Turkish soli.
