Corrax tried awful hard to be an hon--ést statesman, but in the language of Josh Billings it “was just bis darn luck to miss it” ; & It. ‘. GOl e HAVING in a previous issue published the new temperance law in full, we do not deem it necessary to recapitulate its provisioné. We requested our readers at. the time to give the bill an attentive perusal, and we have faith that they heeded the admonition, : e — - — 7 THE new temperance law was last Monday afternoon officially transmitted to Gov. Hendricks for his approval. He has three days in which to make up. his mind whether to approve or veto. If he does neithber, the bill becomes a law without his signature; if he' exercises the veto power, the bill will be returned tothe House which can pass it over the veto by an absolute majority. - It will be observed: from the remarks made by several of the Senators who voted for the new temperance law that they entertain grave doubts as to the efficiency of the measure, and that they gave it their votes solely in obedience to. the demands of a portion of their constituency—laking the bold ground that if the law proved a failure, the people themselves and not their reprtsentatives will be rccjuired to bear tbp blame. . e el A G — ! Tur wholesale liquor dealers of Indianapolis have issued a call for the holding of a general convention of the whole‘sale liquor dealers of Indiana, in that _city on the fourth of next March, to consider such steps as may be taken to .de- - feat the object of the- temperance party ],'_to,‘{législnte them out of business. Théy assert that eminent counsel have advised " them that the new law is in conflict with the Constitution. Lively times may be expected for the next few months.

Tue followingd paragraph from . the Indianapolis Journal will be read with interest by persons’engaged in the liquor traffic.—“The last section of the temperarrce law which passed the Seuate, enacts that it shall be in force from and after its passage, “except in so far as it relates to those who Hold a lieense under the existing laws of the State.” It isnot likely, thercfore, that any marked results of the: operation of the law will be visible till the existing license expires, many of which haye several months to run.”

" A VERY LIGHT VOTE Was cast throughcut the State on the proposed amend: ment to'the constitution prohibiting the assumption_bf the Wabash and Erie Ca-~ nal debt. Those who did vote, cast their ballots %lmost unanimously for theamendmént. The election was in many re: spects a farce, owing to the short notice that was given prior to the election. A great many voters dcposited their ballots without having gained a clear understanding of the proposed amendment. Fortunately, however, the verdict was rendered correctiy. :

Tur Ft. Wayne Sentinel very appro priately remarks:—*lt is a fact worthy of note, that.of all the distinguished Republicans who joined the Liberal cause, last summer, not a staip of corruption atteches to;their garments. - Aithough berated, slandered, denounced by the christian statesmen now ho;\ding a Credit Mobilier_protractéd mceti’ng'atv Washington, they are the only mcm‘bers of that organ_’izntion without blemisl). It was their independence and purity of character which prevented harmony Letween them and the thieves and hypoerites now at the head of the republican party. Here, indeed, is food for reflection.” '

Tue seAsoN for making maple sugar ia rapidly npproac'hinig; it is therefore in order to suggest to farmers that some attention be given to getting gpiles, barrels, huckets, &c., in readiress. In this connection it may n»t be amiss to reproduce an item which we find in one of our exchanges, as follows :—“A friend of ours has constructed near his turnace a cistern to hold the sap, and he says it has paid him twice over each’year. Whena great rush of water Comes’he has only to empty into lis cistern and pump it out as he needs it—the water keeps mach longer and purer than if left exposed. If you ‘have a good clay subsoil you spread your cement upon the clay, using brick only for the crown of the cistern, and so with little cost construct a cistern worth much more than the cost each season. Care should be taken to separate everything out of the molasses or sugar that will detract from its value. Clear, nice, wellflavored syrup is very highly prized.”

A Religious Journal Speaking out in Meeting. The Watchman and Reflector, the leading Baptist Jourpal in New KEngland, thus mantully speaks its mind upon the Credit Mobilier disgrace: “It is heart: gickening to read the details, the prevarications, the falsehoods, the denials, the turnings and twistings of men hitherto high in the estimation'of the people. The sin and the error is not so much in the original purchase of Credit Mobjlier stock, although this was bad enough, but, ‘in the subsequent denials, followed by compulgory confessions and explanations. It is one of those cases where pnblic sen- | timent shousd rise above party considerations, and where an honest attempt should 'be made to purge Congress and start on anew basis, It is bad to have our polit ical idols dethroned, but better this than winking at crime in high places.” A remarkable apecdote was recently toid by tue Hartford Courant, of a railway conductor who received a $l,OOO %fir.eenba‘ck from a passenger as fare, proming to return the change. When the condactor went to fulfill his promise, the ~man denied having given him the note. No clue to the strénge man’s identity has “ever been discovered, but the Chicago Tribune bas nid&:tly struck the right trail. It says: ‘*‘Recent developments in: “dicate that the man's name must have been Nesbitt—his acquaintance with the ~eonductor was o very slight and his method of -bestoning greenbacks upon strangers so extraordinary.”

THE TEMPERANCE LAW. | - The Temperance Bill which passed the ’ House ion the sth instant, and which we ! published in a former issue, was last Thurs- I day passed, without amendment, by the | Senate by the very decided vote of 80 in tavor and 19 against, as follows: @ ‘ YEAs-—Messrs. Armstrong, Beardsley, | Boone, Beeson, Brown, Bunyaun,Chapman, . Collett, Daggy, Daugherty, Dwiggins, Friedley, of Scott, Friedley, of Lawrence, Hall, Harney, Waworth, Hough, Howard, l Habbard, Miller, Neff, O’Brien, Oliver, Orr, Rhodes, Ringo, Scott, Sleeth, Steele, Taylor—3o. | ; - Nays—Messrs. Beggs, Bird, Bowen, Carnahan, Cave, Dittemore, Fuller, Francisco, Glessner, Gooding, Gregg, Sarnig - hausen, Slater, Smith, Stroud, Thompson, Wadge, Williams, Winterbotham -19, The discussion of the bill was participated in by quite & number of Senators, who expressed their reasons for voting in favor of or.ageinst the bill. Mr. Jason B. Briown, who subsequently voted for the. bill, said: “The bill contains some very strangé provisicns. His desire was to make a law that would stand tlie test of | the scverest criticism and investigation. The two leading features of the bill are, first, that it requires a majority -of the” .voterg of the ward or town to sign the petition of the parties, and the next is‘y that it provides that the party selling liquor shall be liable for consequential damages. He thought the first of these provisions was constitutional, He thought it would be so decided, notwithstanding the Supreme Court a good many years ago made a decision rather adverse to. that. But as to the other provision, he‘ventured the opinion that it was illegal and void, and he believed it would be so determined whenever it was presentéd, He did not believe, under the State Constitution, a man could be more liable in a case of that kind than the common law makes bim.”

Dr. Thompeon sard: He had been a temperance man throughout his life. He had been called a Radical: He formerly assisted in the passage of a probibitory law.. He was not pleased with the response that the law met with from the people generally, and therefore from that time he had never entered a temperance meeting. He did not believe you could better the human heart very much with principles that did not rest on the very authority of God; and hence he was very much in favor of religion, that binds men to moral obligations. . = Mr. Bird argued that the billk would yield no revenue to the school fund, while the present yields something like $lOO, 000. He thought the bill now on the statute books was a much better law than this. : :

Mr. Gooding said ;he was satisfied to reflect the wish and judgment of his con stituents, and he thought he did that when he voted against the bill. Mr. Harney said he had never been a temperance man as understood by temperance men generally. He had always doubted the efficacy of laws that are sumptuary in their character and are intended to enforce virtue by legislation. The present law had worked well for a time, but the time had come to change it in order to adapt it to the present condition of the State. This law would not have been his first choice. II he were to select alaw, he would take one which would not include vinous and malt liquors. But liquor sellers will not accept such a law nor will they live up to it, and the temperance men will not be satisfied with it. Therefore, he should vote. for the bill which the temperance men are in favor of and intend to enforce. © Mr. Neff said he was in favor of striking out the scction which gives men the right to sell liquor in any quantity, provided it is taken away from the premises where sold. This bill would probably preventany one in his county from getting a permit, but instead of that it will be filled up with irresponsible persons wiw can sell, to be taken away from the premises, any amount of liquor that they desire. But his people are in favor of the bill as it is, and therefore he voted yea. - Mr. Slater said the only benefit that could result from the bill was to bresk down the republican party, and he should vote for it if it would not pass without his vote. But’as his vote was not reeded he voted no., .

Mr. Wudge sald he should vote against. the bill for the reason assigned by the Senator from Johnson (‘Mr. Slater). He honestly believed the passage of the bill would be the death of the republican party. Working, as he had, with that party for the last fifteen years for its success, it should not be said that he lad done anything to cause its death. He: therefore: voted no, = | ' Mr. Winterbotham said he had tried, in his humble way, to represent bis constituents. If any of them favored the passage of the bill, he had no knowledge of it. He represen‘ed about ¢ight thousand voters, at least one third of whom‘are Germgns. Wine and beer have become a national beverage; it is almost a necessity with them, and he was opposed to depriving them, in their social way, of that beverage, wine and beer, at their meetings and social gatherings, when we allow men who are wealthy to enjoy their wine and beer at home. He voted no.

. Mr. Friedly, of Lawrence, said he had worked faithfully and earnestly and sin. cerely with a desire to have this bill per: fected. It hiad not been done, in hisjudg- ‘ ment. He believed that it would not be sustained by the courts. He had, at any ; rate, grave fears that it would not be sus- | tained. He believed it would set the cause of temperancé back ten or fifteen years in Indiana. Yet let the responsibility rest where it properly belongs. Ie had received a great many petitions from his people asking for a temperance law. He believed that this is not such a one ag they require, and yet he believed that it is the only one that would come before the Sqnate at this session, and in deference to the views of his constituents, and with very grave and sevious doubts about the propriety of passing the bill, he vo. ted aye. ; Mr. Boone, who had voted “no,” when his name was called,asked leave to change his vote. He said he believed the law now in force was a better temperance law today than the one which they were now passing, if it were properly enforced. His constituents, however, in both ceun.ties that he represented, had but a small amount of means invested in this thiog, and the amount which they have is worse than if they had none. He had worked in good faith to try and perfect this bill, to make it as perfect as possible, for the purpose of giving to the people a temperance law that might be effective in some degree. He ,hgd not do_ne whét he had with mg factious feeling, but in’ good faith. He had made a fn;futegof it Higjudgment was that this law would be, in effect, a failure, but he had found in his practice that the better plan is, if people want to haye tpelr own way about a thing for a little while, to let them have it, He votedaye, =~

INVESTIGATION. : What a spectacle the journals of our ! country present at this time! *lnvestigation ” seems to be the only word in our 1 language having any point, force or character. Investigations under way, Tnvestigations in the bud, and Investigations threatened are as much the rage at Wash. ington this winter, as any fashion that ever came “ across the water.” All other: news are so stale, they need a Leicestershire sauce served up with them to make them go down. Even then the advantage is with the investigations, for all jthe catchups are served with them, Not a bill of importance has yet been passed in Congress this winter, not even the usual, inevitable tinkering of the tariff, and only one weck of the session left for work. The Louisiana ‘investigation is ended, and a damaging thing for the administration and its excusers 1t is,‘themselves being judges” The Credit Mobilier is now a thing of the past, un less Oukes Ames, In his wrath at the result reached by the cominittee, bas another gush of memory, or Schuyler Colfax has further explanations to make. He ‘adds something to the general knowledge every time he makes ope. But theend of the gession, now so near, will probably save the world any further shame in this connection. . : ‘ ;

. Investigation shows that any great monied or laaded interest, any monopoly wailting legislation in its favor, goes to Washington and buys it. . : Investigation proves that persons have held seats in this congress, and drawn pay therefor, till within a few weeks of its end, who had no shadow of right there. to; and all because of the dereliction of duty on the part of the committe¢ having these matters in charge. Added: to this. the Caldwell and Pomeroy cases show that money bas already bought seats in the next Congress, and .buys seats at will in both State and National Legislatures. There can be no inference drawn-from these casdes, save that the legislation at our national capital has beeo, and is so venal, that the money pa'i,d out for seats, can ¥ obtained again for usury. But the cases of Judges Durrell and Sherman prove that the Legislative branch of our Government is not alone in its taint of corruption. - It 18 easy to see where we are drifting. That we have gune far enough down the stream, and that it is high time we turned to stem the current. But it will not be done until a majority of our rulers, the people, resolve to be independent of party enough to condemn- such wrongs where.ever they appear, as promptly, as resolutely, in their own ranks asin that of the opposition. LrBERAL. St el e : Thie Press on the Temperance Law. The Indianapolis Journal thus speaks of the new law: o ; The time for discussing the merits or demerits of the measure has passed, and it is the duty of every law abiding citizen to aid in its enforcement, not its nullifi cation. Ifit isa good law in Its details, as' it undoubtedly is in its object, the best way to proveits excellence is to enforce it ; anc if it is a bad ‘faw, or not grounded on the solid bed rock of public sentiment, its vigorous enforcement wili disclose its weak points. In either case it is the interest as well as the duty of all-classes to give the law a prompt, hearty and zealous support, and we now call on-all classes to lend a hand in its strict and universal enforcement,

The Columbus Democrat, in a lengthy article, discusses the bill in this manner: T o stronga law, is worse than uvone, because it is non effective, .and from one of two causes—either it is unconstitution, al, or if not, public opinion will not sanc tion. its enforcement. We believe the law, as passed, will not pass the ordeal of the Supreme Court, if we are correct in this, and the law declared void, the whole traffic will be thrown open wihout check or hindrance. Instead, then, of having gained, the temperance cause will have lost everything and ‘for two, years it will be at the mercy of its enemy. Of course this is/ only an opinion, but we know that very many ef the friends of the cause hold it. To put it in the most favorable light, .the law is of donbtful constitution.ality, and its friends can hardly afford to run the risk between it and nore. Better by far endeavor to enforce the one we now have, than to secure the passage of anotiier of a character so ultra that it cannot be enforced, or whose provisions may not stand -the test that such a law must undergo. The Evansville Courier makes these comme;‘;ts: Indiana is & comparatively new State and-has room for, and needs thousands of new citzeins. Her most promising prospect of obtaining these -citizens is undoutedly from across the ocean. A very large proportion of the emigrants who came hereare people who have been ac customed from childhood, to look upon malt liquors as harmless, and who deem every attempt to abolish their favorite beverage, an attempt to curtail their almost lindispensable recreations. = These people are not likely to scttle in a State that declares them out laws, by reason of their opinions on the subject of social enjoyment. They will seek homes elsewhere, and by the action of our Legislatuare, Indiana will be deprived of her quota of the most industrious and intelligent of the emigrants who annually flock to tree America. We need all the additional citizens we can abtain, to assist in the growth and development of the industry and wealth of the State, and it is certainly not good policy to shut out the class of people who are most valuable as citizens. ol

) Greéley Vindicated, .- The memorable and weighty words of ,Mr. Greeley, commenting on the Credit Mobilier revelations, are revived throughout the country as the best statement of the case ever made. - That subsequent events have justified the calm reproof conveyed in his Indianapolis spcech is .abundantly admitted. Of the various _comments on tLis speech, the following from the Cattaraugus Undon is a good example: ol d For making this speech the whole pack of Administration hounds, small and great, went after Mr. Greeley in full cry. He was called aliar, a traducer, and a retailer of the lowest campaign slanders. The entire country now knows that he spoke within the truth as regards. the great Pacific Railroad steal, and the men in higtp authority at whom he pomnted now stand disgraced in’ the pillory of - public opinion, with none so poor as to do them reverence. We recur to Mr. Greeley’s words, not for the purpose of shaming his yvillifiers or to " vindicate his wisdom, but to set forth anew, and with a multiplied emphasis, his honest cry for public purity. He being dead, yet speaks, “insisting that the legislation of our country, national and State, needs purification, ‘and that the leading men of the Government”—who have either aided gorruption like Colfax, or shut their eyes upon it like Wiison—*“ghould be called to jus. tice.” Let every good citizen, without regard to party, invoke and do his best to create a public sentiment which will compel this consumation,
