Major W. 1". Butler, a British soldier, in a
book entitled “ The Wild North Land,“
sketch. to the life, the characteristics of
Americans on the frontier, and our manner
of carrying civilization into the wilderness:
" To civilian a new land is the easiest of
tasks, if we but set about it after the Amer-
ican model. Here is the recipe. Given a
realm from which the red man has been
bonisbed, tricked, shot or hunted out ; from
which the bison and elk have been chased:
e lonely, tenantless land, with some great
river flowing in long, winding reaches
silently through its vast plains and moon-
tain gorges; here, then, is what you have to
dOI—Piace on the river a steamboat of the
rudeat construction. Wherever the banks
are easy of ascent, or where a smaller stream
seeks the main river, build a drinking-house
of rough~hewn logs; let the name of God
be used only in blasphemy, and language be
a conveyance of curses. Call a bill a ‘hlufl’,’
avalley a ‘ gulcb,‘ a tire-fly a ‘ lightning bug,‘
a man a 'cuss,‘ three shanties a ‘ city.‘ Let
every man chew when he isn‘t smoking. and
spit when he isn‘t asleep: and then—when
half a dozen perions have come to violent
ends—when killing has literally become ‘ no
civilized."

The license question is also one of great
luportancoand should be widened db
Monstely. .If, esit lancer-ally supposed
it will do, our town votes on Holiday next
to allow of no further licensing of liquor
stores or hotels. and such a law shall be en~
forced to the very letter, we would give it
our hearty support. As itfs we would offer
no oldeotion to its trial, But there is a
spirit manifested by those .who would be
most seriously afibcted, financially, by such
a law, that leads us to think that“ no ll»
eense“ means“free rum,“ otherwise. why
should they bein favor of no license. It
cannot be reasonably presumed that many
of our liquor dealers are noxious to get out
of the business’for if such were the case,
they could do it just as well, and with much
more credit as the law now stands. If,
however, the advocates of prohibition feel
that they can enforce the law prohibiting
the sale of intoxicating liquor, then it
should be voted. We doubt if there is a
man or woman in this city, temperance, tip-
pier or drunkard, but what feels that alco-
hol is the greatest curse to the human fami-
ly. It needs no argument to substantiate
this, statistics prove it.
But, if we are going to have "no license,"
then we want “no license" oillcers also. Can
these be had? We think not. Undoubtedly
many of the liquor dealers and their friends
will vote “ no license,“ but will not vote for
men that will enforce the law, and they will
thus derive the financivl advantage of a
free sale,and the town will lose the revenue
it now receives from licenses. Thus while
drunkenness and poverty will continue, if
not increase,-its cause will be relieved of the
burden of supporting the pauper: it makes.
As we said before, we do not. object to its
trial, but, we would not, with the knowl-
edge we already have of how the “ no li-
cense“ law has operated in other localities,
take upon ourselves the responsibility of
advocating its adoption by this town. '
.1113. BEECHER‘S CASE.
It is seldom that we have seen during the
discussion of the “Great Scandal," the ill)-
probability of Mr. Beecbcr‘s guilt more
clearly put, aul the censurnblenoss of people
for too hastily believing evil reports about It
good man, than is set forth in the following
which we copy from Scribncr‘s Monthly :—
“If any of our readers cure to refer to the
number of this magazine dated January,
1873, they will find under the title, “The
Popular Capacity for Scandal,“ all that we
have ever cared to say concerning the scan-
dal in Plymouth Church, recently and for-
ever exploded. There never wns IIIIy pro»
bsbility in it. The idea that Mr. Beecher,
who had carried a pure name through life,
should, after having lived to be nearly sixty
years old, reared a family, and been subv
looted to the most tremendous droughts up.
on his vitality,gone out of his own way to
seduce an innocent member of hismvn flock,
—the wife of a personal friend, to whom he
had married hen—was simply preposterous.
The absurdity of-it is greater when it is re-
membered that his life bud not been It brutal
one, but one in winch the unbler sentiments
bad ulwnys been those receiving special cul-
ture. The crime charged against him is
probably the last toward which he would
have been tempted. We say there never
was any probability in it, regarded purely
from n physiological point of view; and
when we remember that the persist who
originated it continued to cling to the best
which he professed to believe was dishonor-
ed by repented crimes against its IIIIriIv, the
improbnbillly grew, in all practical results,
to iInposibility.
It is strange that these two circumstances,
—Mr. Beecher‘s ago, his relations and the
spiritual character of his culture, and his
aecuser's condonntlon of the offense which
be professed to believe his wife had com-
mitted,—bsd not opened the eyes of the
public to the facts, and rendered Ibescnndal
impossible. There are other circumstances
that ought to have been taken into consid-
eration. If the public had fully looked in
the face the organized and self-j ustiflod has.
tiness in which this scandal was bred, they
would have seen that it was an attack on
eminent purity before which it writhed in
condemnation. But it is allover now. We
suppose that none but a foul new believes
that Mr. Beecher ever had criminal conver-
sation with the weak woman whose name
has been coupled with his in this businew,
and that none but a worse fool either wishes
or pretends to believe it. Saying this. the
case ought to be covered, but unbapplly,
even Mr. Beecher is still blamed. Why did
he not come out and say all he had said, be‘
fore! Why did he submit to the manipula-
tion which proved him to be so little world-
ly wise ? Why did be hold any communi-
cation with people whom he ought to have
known were unsafe asmeintes‘.’ Why did
be,snd why did he not, do nibousand things
besides?
We are not Mr. Beecher‘a champion, but
we would like to ask a few questions. What
business hrve you, oh inquisitive public,
with a man‘ a mistakes l Why did you give
the slightest credence to this wretchedly
improbable story, and put him to such long
and inexcusable torture? He denied this

With the exception of Plymouth, probubly

that numbered but nineteen, brought together
to worship, in the new tabernacle, over It

tion that numbers about five thousand.
Think of it. As many adults as there are in
this whole town assembled in one house of

terof fuel, literal gospel. Tullumdge has
nothing to do with the theories of sects, in

Where it says hell, he preaches that it
means bell: and where it says thus and so
must be done, or evil consequences will fol-

but that pointed out by the Bible. The com-
mandments, to him, are comIIIsndInents that
must be kept. He has no lolvrntiun for

mands that It IIIIIII shall live up to the cam-
nlIIIIIls of his maker. lie is the orthodox~

large observation, he tells to the conga-gm

however, makes II "hickory of the divine
