From the last Gainesville Eagle we learn that a petition has been pre sented to to the Ordinary of Hall county, to refuse to issue any mota licenses for the sale of liquor at Lula. The petition was signed by ail the offlotrs of the Air-Line and Norths eastern railroads, and by numbers of tha best oitixens of that county. The Ordinary has decided to grant the petition, and benoeforlh there will be no more liquor told at Lola unless in violation of law. The railroad au thorities gave their reasons as foltows: lsL It is tbe junction of the North eastern Railroad with the Riohmond A Danville Railroad, and neecturily beoomes a point where passengers are compelled to remain oter for arrival of trains, rendering it nnplcasrat and haiardoni to do ao daring the drunk en icenes that ao frequently occur. 2d. The railroad companies are now endeavoring to establish a respectable eating bout* at that point but oannot subject their passengers to the liabili ty of insult and danger inoident to tree use of strong drink at that plaae. 8d. The reputation of the town, county and pnblio morals are endan gered, and prosperity, ao promising :o othor sections, (having not at good railroad facilities) wilt never be en joyed by this favored location nntil a reform takes pise* in this ;«rtiou. 1st.
