An Address to the People of the
United States.
Impressed with a deep conviction
that tm urgent exigency has arisen
in the history of the Temperance
Cause, a large number of persons in
all parts of the land have expressed
the opinion that anew organization
of the temperance forces should be
effected on a broad basis, to con
serve and give direction to this im
portant reform. For this purpose,
after extensive consultation, a meet
ing was held, in Boston, Jan. 1,1885,
at which" A National League, (non
part.sau and non-sectarian,.) .For The
Suppression of The Liquor Traffic,'
was organized, under whose direct
ion we now address the public.
A great contest is upon us. A dire
anti barbarous foe seeks to throttle
the Republic,anil no weak, doubtful
or one-sided measures will suffice.
The times call for combination, on i
a broad basis of unity.
History abounds in instances of ‘
the usurpation and tyranny of oli-1
garehics which were overthrown!
only by (he uprising of the people/
A formidable Institution, familiarly j
called the Liquor Traffic, exert! up i
dominant,deadly influence in Amcr- j
ican Society. Its tyrannizing 'power
is felt in polities and legislation, in
courts and juries, in trade and fi
nance, in literature and science, in
schools and colleges, in social and
religious life. An oligarchy of nearly
two hundred thousaml men, engag
ed in the sale of intoxicants, pre
sume to claim the responsibilities
ami privileges of government over
fifty milions of people. How far it
has succeeded in exercising its fatal
sway is only two palpable in the evi
denees of wretchedness, crime and
ruin all around us.
Only a united movement of the
people can overthrow this malign-!
ant despotism. To combine, so far
as possible, all present efforts, and
to create ©civ agencies for deliceiag
society from the evils which have
proved inseparable from the trade
in lit toxicants, this National League
has boon formed. Its members do
not think it wise to commit the or
gan izaitinn to any political party,
nor to form anew one. As.a. matter
of history, they remember that oli
garchies are usuall y wct'tibi'own by
the people, and not fey divided parti
san action. The members of this
League therefore do not &vor en
tangling this reform with partisan
affiliations, They heiiovo their pur
pose will he soonest .and Lest secur
ed by keeping it dkear of all such
cm harassment*.
The work of the League must he
l argely to create a ri>d intensify public
sentiment, seeking to'build it up
fror s the bottom '.lane-of true refom.
Intelligent convictions in the hearts
of the people, with God’s blessing,
afford the only-mure’basis on which
deliverance fromaithe -alcohol curse
ear he rcaamsibty noepeeted. To
produce, strengthen imd enliven!
such convicti ons will be a large parti
of our work. Th* needed legislation
and enforcement of law will surely l
fdllw. Puhlk::BotimFn,t soon (shows
itsdif in legislation and abministra
tion. We piiDvwise ito build the

Tlsis League.'also.invokes and ex
pcei*; to m.-tinthin the sanctxoffl of
law inwliat tiny aft' >, illing to call
a onsado this great organiz
ed M.’il so nmdkto 'be dreaded in
the Hand. The dealers in liquor ask
thilt'iiliey may be left to tlie. same
iawifewhichgwa>©<her trades. But
when a man sells an airhole the use
of wdiieh takes away the judgment
of hi* i who buys, he aisust not ex
pect to be left to the laws which
govern other tradesmen, for the
State must infer pose and insist
upon protecting those "who are thus
made unable to protect themselves.
Is-it said that a common busi
ness and a common peril unite the
dealers in liquors with-a bond which
makes it sure that they will act as
one? We propose to unite against
them ,-a hundred times as many
men and women, who believe that
tlw: liquor triiftie (/rings grievous
calamities to the land. We shall use
every juuatlent and right method to
carry out our purpose, and ask all
good people, men and women, of
all part ies and creeds, to join us in
such, endeavors.

Washington Letter.
Washington, Jan. 17.
A desperate effort was made (his
we dc by Senator Hawley, and a few
other Blaine sympathizers to revive
the southern quarrel on the basis
of the unpleasantness that has exis
ted between 'Jefferson Davis, Esq.,
and General Sherman. Both of
these old gentlemen have long been
in their dotage, and tiro interest
ing only as relics. Since the war
(fen. Sherman has been distinguish
ed chiefly for garrulity, osculation,
waltzing, and as a ballot girl fancier.
During the war unlike Xenophons
anabasis his was a kataliasis, a
march from the mountains over
[he fertile, well watered, unobstru
cted fields of Georgia to the sea.
During the first day of the debate
there was a prospect of richness,
and rows. Hawley, Vest,lngalls, La
| mar, and Seator Sherman engaged
■in a wordy war that for the first
j ime this session filled the Senate
galleries. But on the second day
! Lie Democratic Senators with ad
j nimble good sense refused to cn
! car into a sectional debate, and ve
il:-<! almost unanimously with the
j Republicans. This was a great dis
appointment to Republican Sena
tors who had been to see Air. Blaine,
and had been supplied from that
magazine of statistics and venom
with the sinews of great speeches
with which to fire the Northern
heart.
There was quite a contrast pre
sented in the political animus of
the senate on two successive days
of this week. On the first day the
Republican Senators were rampant
in their abuse of a feeble broken
disfranchised old man who was
once President of the Southern
Confederacy. On the second day
the Democratic Senators voted an
annuity to Gen. Grant, the bank
rupt beneficiary of more public and
private honors than any American
citizen ever before received.
There is a good deal of talk to
day in the lionise about tlie Ed
niunds-Grant bill which passed the
Senate. G*e®. Rosecrans, chair
man of the House Military com
mittee is against the bill. Gen.
Slocum is also against it. He is
in favor of the bill which passed
the Senate last February, and
mentions Gen. Grant’s name. The
Edmunds bill, which went through
the Semite yesterday, does not men
tion (ion. Grant, but it is, of course,
meant for his benefit. Gen. Slocum
thinks that the Edmunds bill would
lie in direct opposition to the Pres
ident’s position in the Fitz—John
Porter ease. It is not likely how
ever that he will find ranch' follow
ing. Gen. Slocum says that to
pass the Edmunds hill would be to
imckxr&e Ferdinand Ward, aid
his actions. There has un
doubtedly been a change of senti
ment in regard to Gen. Grant. It
is very probable that the Edmunds
hill through that sentiment despite
the opposition of Gen. Slocum and
others will become a law.
A portrait of Rutherford B.
Hayes, Esq., has been received at
the White House to be put up in
line with the portraits of legally
elected presidents, good, bad, and
indifferent, bat none fraudulent
from Washington down. This
portrait of Mr. Hayes will doubt
less secure a temporary hanging,
but that of Mr Tilden should be
placed in its stead, or, at least, the
portrait of Mr. Hayes should bo re
moved forever, leaving a hiatus on
the wall. Let it be stamped on the
forehead with the word ’’fraud’,
and presented Judge aliunde Brad
ley, or John Sherman.
Air. Randall Chairman of the com-
i nit tee on Appropriations, has
made the important statement,
that unless the Committee shall be
given the floor from now on con
tinously whenever an appropria
tion bill shall be ready an extra
session is desirable either for Con
gress or the Democratic party. Mr
Randall not given the floor
for the appropriation bill that was
ready. He was voted down by a
combination of those who desired
to bring lip the public building
bills, and this combination was in
its turn prevented from getting
the floor.

Nrcw Orleans, La., Jan. 18.
If any one thing has pleased the
visitor more than another, it is old
"King Kotton” and his wife. It is
a good representation of a centena
rian couple. They arc constructed
as human figures almost life-like
sitting close together, he seemingly
reflecting over the past, while a
little dog looks wistfully at its mas
ter ; she quietly knitting, a kitten
is toying on the floor with the hall
of yarn which has rolled from the
venerable dame’s lap.- Every,
thing is cotton except the specta
cles whice the two old people wear.
They tire in a glass case located in
the Louisiana section, government
building, and are the artistic work
of W. E. Roberts, of this city,
Arkansas challenges the whole
exhibit to excel her in the display
of fruit. California will doubtless ,
take up the gauntlet for $5,000.

New Orleans is one of the great"-'

through which ihe flood tide ofiitU'
ignition is likely to flow in future;
Hn imigration from Europe It a a
centered here since the first French
settlement. Attacted by consan
guinity and by language',- many of
the sons of France who seek a for

istably attracted by that city

In puerile (V Orleans, the renowned
Joon of Aro. The orignal French
settlement- is thus being continually
added to, and despite its American
nationality thase of France look
upon it as an outpost of their cocn
try beyond the sea. Hence, France,
and Spain also, which too has con
tributed of its blood to build it up,
Italy, and Continental Europe as a
whole, will be attracted hither, as
they could by no other American
city.
President Arthur, havig signified
his intention of visiting the Expo

made to reecive him in state.
The liecccssity for an accurate
and reliable Guide to the City and
Exposition grounds has been sup
plied by Theo Pohlmann, who issu
es a. very handsome Guide Book
containing also a map of the city
and street railways, costing but 14
cents bvmail. It is worth three
times the price asked, anb perfect
ly reliable.
The old saying that “man livctlr,
not by bread alone” is curiously
exemplified by the present prices of
wheat and fruit. Judging by the
market rates for what we are used
to consider as necesaries and lux
uries of life, the producers of the
great necessary staple, wheat, are
in a very sorry condition, while the
fruit growers are in the happiest
frame of mind. A grape grower in
California received $195 an acre for
his crop of grapes, while his neigh
bors who grow wheat are getting
only $2 50 an acre. The Florida
orange growers are boasting of
getting $-500 an acre for their groves
and a good apple or pear orchard is
considered worth S3OO an acre. The
trouble seems to be due to the fact
that farmers forget the above quot
ed words, and go on multiplying
the necessaries of life while people
are asking for the luxuries. Wheat,
corn, and pork are selling for less'
than their cost, counting a fair
recompense for the producers
labor. Every luxury, and fruit
quite wrongly considered a luxury,
sells for enormous prices as com
pared with the values of the great
staples mentioned.
