LONDO: LIQUOR TRAFFIC. Bits Regulations, Profits and How It I Conducted, All persons engaged in the liquor traffic in this country must havea license, writes a Lon- don correspondent. The victualier’s license allows the person holding it to sell all kinds of drinks, but there are licenses granted for the sale of beer and cider; others for the sale of beer and wine; others for cider and perry, and still others for tavie beer only and for wine only. The houses at whieh beer is sola, with- out spirits, are called “beer houses,” to distin- guish them from the “publics,” which operate under a victualler’s or “full” Heense. Of the former, not including those which are licensed to sell oniy fe nsunption off the premises, there are 34,077 in the United Kingdom, against 92.348 of the latter class of houses. The total persons in Great Britain and z licenses of one kind or another to deal in and retail excisabie liquors for use as a beverage 1s 22: the revenue from these i ending March arly $10,000, The houses re- semblinz most closely the American saloon are the two ses already singled out—viz., beer houses and publics, particularly the latter. A r license costs 50 ayear, and the premises covered by it, to meet the requirements of law, must be of an annual rental value of from $60 to $150. according to location. A house for which avictualler’s license is soucht must have at least two public rooms in which spirits are sold, and one in which they are not sold, exclusive of the rooms occupied by the family keeping it. In cities having not less than 100,000 inhabitants the annual value of such house must be not less than $250, while in places of less than 10,000 the pts is $150, and elsewhere it is as low as 7 ‘The power of granting or refusing licenses Fesis with the local magistrate; but, should these dignitaries refuse to renew or transter a license when requested to do so. the licensee, having given. bonds for the costs, may carry his grievance Yo the general or quarter sessions. ‘The laws governing the retail trafic in liquor are both numerous and stringent. Each house must display a sign piainly announeing what its license allows to be sold there, and the license must be produced whenever demanded, by either the police or revenue officials. Police constables must be allowed entrance to the premises at any time, under a penalty of from $25 to $50. At the same time, the publican must not give or sell liquor to one of these gentlemen while on duty, or the law will mulet him again for from $50 to $100. Standard measures must be used, and the pen- alties for adulteration are very heavy. _A fine of €100 is imposed for selling beer without a license, and a beerhouse keeper whosells spirits makes himself liable for a similar sum, in addi- tion to the excise penalties. In times ot riot the authorities may order all public houses to be closed, and the penalty for non-compliance is $250. The fine for selling spirits to a child ‘ap- rently under 16,” as the law puts it, is from $5 $10. This is obviously one of the weak spots in the legislation affecting these places. For allowing prostitutes on his premises any longer than is absolutely necessary for them to obtain refreshments, the publican renders himself liable in thesum of from €50to #100, anda like penalty isincurred if the neu be used for illegal gaming or betting. Any licensed person permitting drunkenness or any violent, quarrelsome or riotous conduct to take place ‘on his premises, or selling liquor to any drunken person, is liable to be fined $50 for the first offense and $100 tor the second. But the law steps in this point for the protection of publicans, ing them power to expel drunken or quarrelsome persons, and making such persons who refuse to quit the premises when asked.to do so liable to a penalty of $25, or, in default, to imprisonment with hard labor. Considering how many are engaged in the business, there are comparatively few convic- tions for any of the offenses enumerated above, and the fact is undeniable that the English pub- licans, as a whole, show a great respect for the Jaws of the land. The liquor trafficin England is falling off. The decrease in the revenue last year, as com- py with the year before, was, on spirits, 000, and on beer £652,250, making a total of over 31.500,000! This, as the commissioner of internal revenue will observe. “is significant of altered habits. and ee tendency fs still in- it bet “I wonder why this world’s good things ‘Should full tn such unequal shares; Why some should taste of all the joys And others only {cel the cares?

From the Idaho Springs Gazette. Noticeable at the Spa Hotel is the tall figure of an old soldierly-looking gentleman, whose military career is interesting. It is Gen. A. W. Doniphan, a man seventy years old, who. at the beginning of the Mexican war, in June, 1846, stepped from a large practice into the ranks, whence he was at once elected to the coloneley of the first Missouri regiment of mounted vol- unteers. The similarity between the names Xenophon and Doniphan hasbeen noted, but the Tesemblance does not stop there. Gen. Doni- han, like the Greek leader, made one of the ngest marches onrecord. Starting at Fort Lea- venworth, the first Missouri volunteers marched to Mexico, then around Chihuahua and Del Norte, conquering New Mexico and other states participating in the battles of Brasito and Cbiauahua. losing but one man in both, but capturing 500 and killing the same number of the enemy. The hardy band of less than a thousand men, without a cent’s pay till their return, made a cirenit of 8,000 miles in thirteen months, ten of which they were constantly in the saddle. Gen. Doniphan finds at Idaho Springs, C. C. Bangs, a member of his regiment, and in the state ex-Gov. Gilpin, a major under him, and “Gommodore Decatur,” one of his volunteers. -An uncle of Dr. Hall, of the navy, now here, in his regiment, and was electe: from the ranks to Congress. He, with Gen. Doniphan, framed the present laws of New Mexico. The general is still hale and hearty, and seems to enjoy his advancing years as he deserves to. Prohibition in the South. ‘Frota the Louisville Courier-Journal. It is a fact not generally known, but it is a fat, nevertheless, that Georgia and Mississippi are the strictest temperance states in the Union. A gentleman who has spent several months in those states sald last evening: “‘ There are 87 counties in Georgia where a man cannot buy, beg or steal a drink of whisky, and none can be purchased in the state except in some of the towns. are fanatical onthe sub- ppl they have gone to such and In Mi an extreme that they tax billiard tables A NEW CRAZE. Walking Sticks fer Ladies, From the New York Journal. “Are those canes for attenuated slims?” said a Gotham dealer in canes and umbrellas, In answer to a question, at the same time point- Ing to a large stock of very thin and highly polished canes that hang against the wall. “No, indeed,” he continued, ‘they are not for slima at all. You will be surprised if I tell you that they are carried by our fair slim-ettes.” “What! a woman carry a cane?” ejaculated the reporter in astonishment. “Women carry canes?” answered the dealer, smiling; “why, of course, why not? It is an es- tablished custom in England.” “Are they used for ornament only?” was ed. “Sometimes, but not always. Now, for in- stance, here is a very nicely polished snake- wood. Do you see anything curious about it? No? Well, just look here,” and pressing a little catch the top of the cane flew back on a hinge, disclosing a very pretty cologne bottle snagly imbedded in the stick. “The carrying of canes, or walking sticks, as they are generally called by the fashionables, especially on the part of the ladies, is fast becoming quite a feature on Fifth avenue and Broadway. Every young lady of rank or zood standing in society is expected to have a walking stick with her at all times, partly for protection and partly for ornament. The sticks, as a rule, ure made of ebony, snake- wood, orange wood, and in fact any expensive and solid grained wood. The canes are very thi and generally have some place in the handle for cologne, smelling salts or other ‘ifles. ‘How do the prices run?” was asked. “All the way from twenty-five cents to three or four dollars. Then we can make them cost $50 with very little trouble.” “What makes the difference in price?” “The fixings, as a rule,” answered the dealer. “Then again, it’s the convenience of the—Look out how you handle that one, it’s loaded.” “Loaded,” repeated the journalier, mechant- cally dropping a; lovely ebony stick, having a small gold cap for a head. “Yes, loaded,” said the owner, taking the cane up, ‘and loaded to kill.

The whole thing was as complete an infernal machine as any lady would wish to carry at night. ES Se TOUCHING CORPULENCY. How to Avoid Getting Fat. From the Pall Mall Gazette. Anew book on “Corpulence and its Treat- ment,” has lately been published in Germany by Prof. Ebstein, of Gottingen. He is not, like the English ‘‘saviour of the stout,” full of overflow- ing thankfulness for reliet from his disease; probably he has not even suffered from it, for corpulent men are rarely stern and strict. His method also differs from that of Banting. Ac- cording to Ebstéin, the primary cause of corpu- lency isthe want of sufficient energy to re- nounce the so-called attractions of life. He firmly maintains that fat is produced merely by overeating and drinking. Water and drinking cures are altogether condemned by Prof. Eb- stein: and while the Banting system teaches that ‘fat makes fat,” this doc- trine is directly opposed by Prof. Eb- stein, in whose ideal of fare for those suffering from'corpulency fat forms a great feature. “The 250 grammes of bacon,” says Prof. Ebstein, “which our emperor ordered to be delivered daily to all soldiers taking part in the French campaign of 1870, are, so to speak, an official acknowledgment of the importance of fat in the rational nourishment of a hardworking man.” The annexed Dill-of-fare is that proposed by Prof. Ebstein for an average case of corpulency, the invalid being supposed to be forty-one years of age, and having suffered from increasing stoutness for twenty-five years. The disease is supposed to be contracted by insufficient bodily exercise, a diet consisting of such things as are hurtful, among which are named ail sweet dishes and those containing much albumen and those devoid of a sufficient quantity of fat. Breakfast—A large cup ot black tea without. milk or sugar; 50 grammes of white bread, or toasted brown bread with plenty of butter. Dinner—Soup (frequently and with bone mar- row). 120 to 180 grammes meat, boiled or roasted, with fat gravy—fat meat being prefer- able; a small quantity of vegetables, particularly Hguminous, but also all: kinds ef cabbage. Tur- nips are excluded because of the sugar con- tained inthem; potatoes are altogether ex- eluded. After dinner some fresh fruit, when in season, as dessert; a salad or baked fruit with- out sugar. Twoor three glassesof a light wine. Soon after dinner a large cup of black tea, with- out milk and sugar. Supper—tIn winter regularly, in summer occa- sionally, a largé cup of black tea without milk and sugar. An egg or some fat roast meat, or both, sometimes fat ham, smoked or fresh tish, about thirty grammes of white bread, with plenty of butter, and occasionally a small quan- tity of cheese and some fresh fruit. Caution About Getting Lean. ‘From the St. James Gazette. Fat men resolutely bent on bringing down their weight should read the report of Dr. Vul- Pian on the causes of the digestive disturbance which was the origin of the malady to which the Comte de Chambord succumbed. The Count, it must’ be remembered, was in higearly daye thrown from a horse; with the twofold re- sult of laming him and destroying his nerve. He was unable tn consequence either to walk or to ride;and having exhibitedataste and even a passion for hunting, he caused rides to be cut in the forest of Frohsdorf, along which, driven in a carriage, he was accustomed to pur- sue his game. This, during the last few years of his life, was the only form in which he took exercise; and, as a natural consequence, he be- came inordinately stout. He Tecourse to Bantingism; and the dietary system he adopted had the eftect—as he first and Dr. Vulpian af- terwards believed—of bringing about the con- dition of stomach which at last killed him. “Some four or tive years ago,” says Dr. Vul- pian’s report, “the Count, urged by a desire to diminish his stoutness, submitt himself to the Banting system in ail its rigor, and in a few months had lost nearly fifty pounds of his weight. This rapid emaciation had produced weakness and at the same time, perhaps, di- gestive troubles, and several people have told me that that was the case and have even traced to the same date the first attacks of the mal- ady.” The immediate effects of severe Bant- ingism seem to have passed off, but later the Count was twice attacked by acute indigestion and was obliged to subj himself to severe treatment on each occasion. $e. —____ HE ADDRESSED THE JUDGE. A Remarkable Scene in Court. The notorious James Robinson, or “Jack Shephard,” as‘heis best known to the police of Pennsylvania and Ohio, was sentenced in Phila- delphia on Friday to three years’ imprisonment tor stealing a lot of merchandise. The prisoner, Just before sentence was passed, made a re- markable address, reviewing his life in and out of te , at the conclusion of which the judge said: “When your term expires, it is to hoped that after what you have said you will endeavor to lead a different life. All you have to do is to bear It patiently.” “Yes,” answered | trade with Mozambique, and, in return, his French operations in the east have called pub- lic attention to certain seldom heard of portions of the world and one of these portions is the Island of Madagascar, which a writer in the Universe describes very interestingly: The Island of Madagascar is certainly one of the irost interesting spots on the surface of the earth. The echool boy, hurrying through his studies and learning little and caring less about those far off countries which to-day are occupying the thoughts of the most powertul European governments, knows nothing more about the land of Madagascar that it is an island of an elongated shape, situated close to the eastern shore of the southern part of Africa. Such dim impressions as he may receive about this distant isle he gets from his geography map, @ very superficial chart. indeed, and beyond that he does not go, As he grows older the light he has does not get brighter, and sometimes, indeed, it goes out altogether. Nor does he feel the loss of it in after years until some war of international importance or other WORLD MOVING OCCURRENCE takes place to attract attention, and then, when the press with many contradictory and incom- Piete dispatches publishes the news, he is an- noyed to find that he cannot understand it, be- cause the history, customs and condition of the distant country are alike unknown to him. How many people know, for instance, that the Island of Madagascar extends over an area larger than that of the whole of the British Isles. The area of Madagascar is estimated at 225,000 square miles, while England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland and the isles of Guernsey, Jer- sey, Man, etc., altogether can only boast of 121,656 English square miles. The length of the island is 1,030 miles; its great bi ls miles. Thus, so far as size, at least, is con- peice it is not an insignificant portion of the earth. The character of the surface of the island may be divided into two distinct parts, the moun- tains in the north, and the southwestern part, which is comparatively fiat. There are five great mountain changes which traverse the is- land in a north, northeast, and south, south- west direction. Ithas been ascertained by a distinguished explorer, Dr. Mullens, that the central provinces have been the scene of great yolcanic phenomena. Thus the Ankarat moun- tains, forming a volcanic center, cover an area of 600 square miles. Other volcanoes also exist. But it must not be supposed that Madagascar is altogether asterile or desolate island because of its great extent ot mountainous surface; on the contrary, on the north and east. MAGNIFICENT FORESTS cover the hills. The flora and fauna comprise Many species, and many genera can be found nowhere else. Horned cattle and rice are ex- ported to Mauritius and Bourbon. The north- ern and eastern portions of the island are by far the most fertile, and it is this part which is con- trolled by the Hovas, the most powerful sect or tribe of the inhabitants... Tananarivo is the cap- ital of Madagascar, and has a population of about 80,000. The inhabitants of the island are known by the general title Malagash or Mala- sy, and it has not yet been decided whether hey are all of one race of Malay origin, or whether there are three distinct races, namely, the original inhabitants, allied to the negroes; the free inhabitants on the west coast, resem- bling the white races, and a third race belonging tothe Malay stock. Like most of the eastern countries the early HISTORY OF MADAGASCAR is involved in obscurity. It is supposed to have been known to the ancients, who regarded it as apart of the mainland. When the Malays in- vaded and peopled it is unknown. The Hoyas are the present descendants of those ancient wanderers, and these are the people who are at resent opposed to the French. Although re- ferred to by Marco Polo in the thirteenth cen- tury, it was not until the sixteenth century that Madagascar me generally known to Euro- pe 8, and it was not till 1810, in the reign of ing Radama I, that it became commercially important. In 1816 this king entered into a treaty with the English to suppress the slave troops were disciplined by English drill-ser- geants. Radama was furnished with firearms to be used in destroying the slave trade, but the king used these weapons to subduethe islanders who still resisted his authority. * * * RANAVALO II., the present Queen, has shown great favor to Protestant missionaries, and on February 21, 1867, she and the prime minister, whom she had married, and many of the most influential na- tives were baptized. Thechiet idol, Kalimalaza, was destroyed later in the year, and the Chris- tian world has since then regarded Madagascar as one of the ort prommcing of the lands that have been rescued frem the gross darkness of paganism and idolatry. But it may be ques- tioned whether Madagascar, though far ad- vanced upon the ROAD TO CHRISTIANITY, has yet reached the full meaning of that word, and it cannot be foretold what the effect of a war will be upon the morals and religion of its inhabitants. : See “BEAUTIFUL FOREVER.” Goats’ Milk for the Complexion. ‘From the New York Sun. “Is it true,” asked a reporter of a well-known Physician in 38th street, “that girls are now drinking goats’ milk to improve their com- plexions?” “Undoubtedly,” said the physician, promptly; “and it is also true that they are indulging in lettuce juice, asses’ milk, cream, glycerine, cam- phor, poultices, arsenic, patent nostrums of every variety and chemical masks.” “You don’t say?” “Yes, Ido. They try eversthing on earth ex- cept the fundamental requisite.

Some ten years ago, while at the Reed| House, Erie, Pa, ‘Iwas taken sick with the spotted fever, and was very low; my back and spine seemed to be affected, with ter- ible pains in kidneys and back. For fourteen days I aid, ana could hardly stir, and suffered the most intense agony imaginable.
