Tiro strawberry growers of a single county in Maryland realized over $100,000 this year on their crops. Dean Stanley is dead. Ho was considered tho foremost churchman of tho Anglican Commission, and was leader e! '-he "Broad Chnrch” party.

Uuv the old one. THE STATE INSANE AHYJAJM. Tliere is, in onr judgment, nothing weightier before the Legislature than the nbovo subject. It is aelf-evidont that greater provision must be made for the caro of those unfortunate ones, bereft of reason, and tbolr name is “many." How to accomplish this, therefore, is the qnesiion. Two propositions are disenssed, to-wit: En larging tho present gronnda, and building a branch institution at At lanta. Wo can see no reason to hes itate betwoen tho two propositions, as thero can be bat one argument used in favor of a branch institution and tinti is tile convenience "f lh»»6 ir. the IIKIT-Y TO SENATOR DAN VOOIt- HUES ON THE I.IQUOl! QUESTION. Ttom Uw AllMt* CosnltsUoa. Editor* CojiMulinn: Senator Dan Voorbees baa been iuterviowodon the subject of tho temperance movement, and the interview has been widely cir culated with the intention of iufln- oncing legislation in fsvurof the liquor traffic. Mr. Voorheos is a great man —a man of talent and influence, and bis opinions generally are worthy of roapettfnl consideration—hat the log ic displayed in that liqnor interview is certainly very lame. 1. It afconnds with many bare as seriisns devoid of proof and nnsnp- Mr. Atkinson thinks it not wild to ssy that in ten yenrs $2,400,000,000 Imvo been saved by the freight redac tions on all (ho roads of the connlry. Pretty good showing that rhonoynph: Sarno of tho Arkansas farmers bavo began naming mangy, iihoep. stealing doga "Gnitonn.” This is rather rough on the dogs, but they can find relief in suicido. Augusta Chronicle: Surely, surely Atlanta docs not want tho Lunatic Asylum or tho manipulation of it— Order nn extension of tho Millcdgc- villo building, Messrs. Legislators, and stop this nonsense. L. C. Lory, of Coiambus, has sent President Garfield a basket of fine Georgia peaches. Ho makes it known that they were sent by a Democrat aud through a Democratic express agent. It L. Mott, Esq., of Colnmbus, n man of considerable means,' and, also, trnsteo of tho insane asylum of Geor gia, was ran over aud killed in the Atlanta car shed recently, by nn in coining Macon train. 11c was eighty- two years old. Mormonism is geltiug a strong foothold iu upper Gcorgis. Has it como to this, that the empire .State of the South should tolerate within her borders snch nn insidious form of crime and corruption? Aro our fair women to bo suhjoctcd to this degra dation ? Tho haugiug of nineteen Molly Ma guires iu tho anthracite coni region of Pennsylvania completely destroyed tho order of assassins there; but tho recent murder of a mine manager at Duubar brings out tho fact Hist an or ganization of thu same kind exists in tho western part of tho State. Among tho important hills before tho present Legislature wo find tho following, by Mr. ltieo, of Fulton: A hill incorporating tho Atlantn and Cincinnati ltailrnnd, E. W. Colo and George I. Scuoy being at tho head of it. It combines the lines from Bruns wick to Home, and provides for steam ships and other vesaols. Tho memorial rent np to tho Leg- islatere by tho ladies, asking for Birin gent laws on the liquor question, or rather for prohibition of its mtnufsc' tore and sale, was sent up in a largo basket, which it tilled. It was rnn out all the nislcs and then there was enough left to enrpat a good sized room. Tho petition was (!W feet long. It contained 30,000 names coming fruiu every couuty in tho State. The 'unrolling of the |ietition created qnito a sensation, nud as it was unfurled thero was continued applause. Wo _ ftWfri* tmn weeks ago, and we are p‘ cased to sec oat distinguished contemporary of (bo Savannah A’eirs takes the same po sition we do, which esn be Bummed np in very few words, to-wit: To build tho branch moans two asylums, two corps of physicians, two sets of nurs es, two sets of apparatus—two sets of ercrything needed, and. In short, two asylums out and ont. Whilst to on- largo simply means a continuance of what wo have with additional room— simply this and nothing more. Wo don’t boo how the Legislature could hesitate fiftocn minutes. Tho follow-' ing is an ostimato made by the Super tntendent of the asylum of its require ments and costs of tho same: A building to isolato and check eon- tngiuna epidemics, $9,324; two conva Icscont wards, $(i7,8C7i; ono amuse ment hall, $6,S74. Those buildings the Sn|>erintcndont anya are absolute ly necessary to promote and seenro tho healthy, ameliorating and chra' tiro influences of the institution. 1’IIE I DENT OAHEIEt.D Is calling lustily for kitchen physic, which we call n good sign indeed. If ho takes goo<I enro of himself now ho will oomc ont all right, nono tho worse for his trials, barring his own pains and tho anxiety of liia family and friomla. Ho has secured tho sympa thy of tho wbolo "Solid South," and now if bo wants to immortalize him self let hiui coiitinuo to kick overboard tho atalwarts and treat v* like we de serve and he will gain onr love ns well as our sympathy. Tho way is clear for him if ho will only enter. So much for tho Frcsidont, how aa to Guitcnu. Wo sco no chance mulcr oxistiiig lawn to haug him, and wo can’t make a law to apply to bis case, so Wo guess bo had tatter ta shipped to Leesburg, Fla. Those people down there know exactly what to.do with him. (,'ONKI.INO AND PLAIT. These luon, liko Gnitoau, bnvo stirred up the |>cople, but iu a differ ent way. It is, however, thu oul- croppiug of the snuio spirit, and should meet with thu snino rebuke.— Tho Legislature of New York have said to Mr. Platt, you enn stay at home. Conkling frisks around so briskly they can’t get a fair chance to s|)cnk to him, Imt he'll ta trap|iod sooner ot Inter. Snflico it to say, be, too, will stay homo with the children. Miller lies been elected iu Platt's place, and the presumption is that Laphnm will sueccud Conkling, who, by tho way, continues to get his usual twenty-eight votes. stance, he says: “No good wii] como of the prohibition movement"—“it is ••» itnnnMiliilitt"—••♦.lift IrtW where enacted is a dead letter,” and many others of a similar natnre. He asserts msny things, but proves noth ing. The contrary cotihl ta declared with equal boldness—"it will do good”—"it is possible’’—" tin: law where enacted is a living force.” 2. Ho deals in much manufactured history. The records do not snstnin what he declares to ta historical facts. He says: “Such measures have always failed”—“in Kansas juries composed of the best men rofnso to enforce the Inw”—“the juries iu Maine will nut convict when a violation hns been proved." Thero possibly may ta ex ceptional coses. Tho same is trno of the law touching murder, bnrglnry and arson—theso are rare, but the records of tho courts show that in general violations, when proved, aro puuishod. The Lowrysin North Car olina, and tho Jameses in Missouri wore thieves and murderers—outlaws unpunished. Shall we, therefore, conclude that the laws forbidding theft and murder in those States were a dead letter? Far from it. 3. Ilia sophistry is very liable to de ceive tho casual reader. Hu says:— "Tho Stato has no power to confis cate tho property of its citizens who are engaged in Inwfnl trade." "taw ful trade ?" Who made it lawful ? uud cannot tho same power mnko it un lawful? It wns lawful n few years ago for sportsmen to esteb ami shoot gnmo all tho year ronnd, hut now it is unlawful. “No power to confiscate’’ —who proposes to confiscate ? Were the hunters' traps sud nets and guns confiscated by tlio gauio laws ? Does the Stato guarantee that tho property of its citizens shall nevor depre eiute in value? Ho says, "maunlactnrera bavo mode large investments to sup ply tho liquor," etc., and concludes, “therefore you must nut interfere with tho sale of it by small dealers,” eta We might agreo that men bad invested largoly in the manufacture of hunglars' tools, therefore wo ought not to forbid or punish burglary, ta- causo it would virtually confiscate this profitable and iiumcnso investment.— ! What reasoning! What evil conld | ho suppressed or what nuisance eonlil ta abated if such n principle were to control legislation ? A company might iw formed nud n charter ob tained and an immense butcher-pen mnku him na obnoxioua to public de cency and as dangerous to society as an unlawful garb, wouldn't it aecm reasonable that the law might have something to say about what "be shall eat and drink” also ? Mr. Voortioea says: "Tho liqnor traffic pays su immense revenue to the government, nud is therefore en titled |p receive its full and complete protection." It rovonno is the basis of tho license and tlio reason for pro tection, why not license highway rob bery and protect tbe plunderers?— They would ta willing to pay a large revenue for the cxclqsive privilege to At a recent banquet given ut tbe Stanton House iu Cbnttanooga to Joe Brown, at which wna a number of dis tinguished, gentlemen from Georgia^ Col.

There is a secret in this strange inconsistency on the part of men who rely for promotion upou tho suffrages of tho people. This is it in a nutshell: Liquor is a factor in the political campaign, and politicians are afraid to touch it. A sad commenta ry truly on American politics, but it is a fact in many instances Hint a whiskey barrel is betwoen tbo politi cian nnd the office he seeks, and. he walks dexterously around it rather than kick it iu pieces nud risk tho chances of defeat. 31 r. V forhees nays: “The reforma tion should be accomplished by edu cation and tbe general improvement of the |hou1c.” Is that the usual jvny evils are suppressed ? Is horse stealing and house breaking and gam bling nud carrying concealed weapons checked and restrained and crushed out “by education and tho general improvement of tbe people?” We would not ignore this means to eradi cate public evils, but wc know that tlio,strong grasp of the law has been laid ti|K)U many of them, and tbo li quor evil should l>e chained by the same |n»wcr—the (tower of tbe law. But Mr. Voorbees, iu tbe Just sen tence of the interview, gets right. He hud a column for the benefit of tbo li quor dealer, nnd tbreo lines for the relief of the public. Ho snys: “ You may regulate tbe traffic in liquors, and keep the business in prudeut nud re sponsible hands.” That is exactly wlmt tho tcmpcrauco movement pro poses to do— “regulate the traffic.”— Aud if in regulating the traffic the re strictions amount to a prohibition, nil right. The regulation we ask defines the place where it tuny Iks sold, viz:— in those communities whero a majori ty of the voters desire it; to whom it may Iks sold, viz: only to him for whom the dealer is willing to become security for good behavior; nnd when it mny bo sold, viz: only at certain hours, when there will Us thu least danger to tlio public and individual safety.

This was referred ip, but I told them that the law and its execu tion wns not ns arbitrary an had been stated, that the present emumitHioii wore gentlemen of the highest chare- tor, and I believe would, be conserva tive in their actions, and that I bad snch confidence in the people of Geor gia that tlfcV would not, through their representatives, allow diseriminations against any species of property, espe cially that which conduces more prob ably tlmn any other in the conven ience and commercial im|M>rtamo of tho State; that the people could not afford to permit, imiuli Jess inaugu rate, au unjust or. iflibt rid policy towards the railroads, for to do it would shut ont capital from the State ncodod for the development of facto ries and furnaces, us well ah for rail roads.
