I Ilk fck**. Static, lor postage, j 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.

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. Dambi.

While labor isabun. dantthis will work; when it is not workmen will not submit to such a rule, 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.

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 sition on or about the middle of February, preparations will he 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. NO. 52
