JULIUS l I make a halt and am not more than within 2 the precinct: of the village when I hear that i all-in: t tori; the Scott Act, under, discussion. It is evident that there are 2 many people in ,lfalton who have not the; highest admiration for Mr. Scott and the: l ' tire creation which bears his name. ‘ ueh bitterness has been the result of the pract-‘cal application of the act. A flood deal of personal animosity characterimf the l nova! on both sides before the election.l After the act had been carried iti soon became evident that the opponents of the measure were not inclined to throw aside their personal feelings and endeavor to make them a succas; while it became equally endent that its advocates were bent i on draling the legal restrictions on the s t lines, leaving littl? to the moral effect of the votes. In the villam: as soon as the bars were closed and thc hotel-keep- crs had sullcnly closed their stables and bed- rooms 'ust the visitor. . the Alliance did not leave the stone long unturned before they started a joint stock temperance accom- modation house. For a few weeks it ,had a large run :bnt the reaction came when the hotel keepers relented and threw open their doors, and now the Alliance hostclry has little patronage I was, told, cxcept among the more fanatical of the Scott Acton. Then came the detective system of enforcing the act ;neceasitated,~-as the Alliance heldâ€"by the alleged violations of the act in the prin- cipal hotels; butâ€"as viewed by the other party-showing the readiness of the Alliance to emplo ' means as demoralizing and as despicsb c as any adopted is the nat- ural course of the liquor traffic. Detec- tive Maloney, who was cinploycl by the Alliance at St a day exclusive of his “treat- ing expenses,” was one of the chicfagentsm this work. Cases were brought against hotel keepers by this agent in Oakville, Nelson, St. Anus and liurlingtomand the latter case resulted in nchargc of perjury against him, which resulted in his arrest. Sucli animos- ity was’by this time raised against him that liewas compelled to leave the town by stealth. In the course of one of these cases this agent confidentially gavc the following interesting account of himself :â€"â€"“I taught school for two years and wrote for news- pa rers. Have acted as a detective of houses of ill fame in Toronto and was very success- ful in the business. I also travelled for a tea Iirin;" towh‘cli a local paper midstliat “ he i: possessed of an excellent education and at one time studied for the ministry.” Since the excitement which ended in Mulcncy’s sudden withdrawal from Milton little has been heard of the operations of the detec- tives. A Georgetown liquor case was tried and when the accused was atquit- ted a bonfire was lighted in the village and as it was impossible that strict justice could be done to the celebration of such an occa- sion without a little of thecontrabaud article its lf, some genius of the dcmijolm sur- mounted the ditlicultics of the case by pro- curing a doctor‘s order for two quarts of whiskey. This was one means of entering the paradise of incbricty through the needlo’s eye of u. legal shift ; but. there are other methods employed. Several of those who are known to be habitual drunkards, and whose conduct under the new regime was noted with special interest, suddenly left town. \\'hci'c had they 'onc‘.’ the question was asked. They had ( isappearcd where many an American patriot had gone when the civil war first demanded their armsâ€" across the lines. They had gone into the ndjoinin counties, where liquor was to be had free y, and when compelled by the necessities of n depleted purse to return to their native country they were seen to be encumbered with cans of various dimensions nbcllcd " coal oil,” “ bcnzmc" and “spirits of turpentine.” Such are somo of the fea- tures of Iboworking of tlic Scott Act, which. of course, has not yet bccn tried it sullicicnt .lcugth of timo to enable the people to judge of its ovils or its benefits. g.

He com- incnccd taking the juice of one lemon with two tablespoousful of water. at regular in- tervals, also eating the pulp (this was done after the eruptions became painful), and kept his pulse at from sixty to sixty-seven for thirty-six hours, when all elevation dis- appeared from the skin. A free use of lemons in sickness or health is highly bene- ficial, especially in the summer or during the heated term. Lemonade _is n. safe drink in sickness and health. It corrects biliousnesa. It isnspccilic against worms and skin com- pluiuts. Lemon juice is the best unti- scorbutic remedy known. It not only cures tliodiscasc but prevents it. Sailors make a daily use of it for this purpose. \Vhou one feels poorly, if they would eutnlcmon before breakfast every day for u weekâ€"with or without sugarâ€"they would find it better than medicine.

He says the regionsaro equal to half dozen Culifomias. 'lhis testimony is sup rtcd by Commander Cameron, who visitu and investigated thc Gold Coast along with Capt. Burton. Gold is found in the sea sand. in the dust of the roads, and in the mud walls of native huts. Several mining companies are cn~ gnged in gold finding in tho district, and they testify to the great possibilities it af- fords. A subject of such importance has, of course, been widely discussed by experts in England, and by this time larva numbers of prospectors arc doubtless verifying mat- ltcrs on the spot. f There are many dillicultics in Africa that I that did not confront the gold digch of lCalifornia and Australia.

The nghthouse Keeper's Wife. Boon Isliind lies about sixteen miles from the Isle of Shoals, and is a dangerous rock not high above the son. It is said to be one of the most desolate of spots, and is seldom visited except by the government bout that carries supplies every three months. Many years ago the keeper and his wife were left alone on the island, the assistant having gone ashore to be away some days. During the time the husband was taken ill. The brave woman cared for him day and night, and every evening Boon Island light shone bright ; but her nursing and watchfuluess could not save the life so dear to her, and she was soon alone on the island with the dead. \Vell knowing that: it would be almost impossible to signal assistance from land or passing boats, she bethought herself to of- tend to the light as was customary, and then put it out. At the Portsmouth naval station in Kittery they noticed Boon Island ligkt was not shining, and sent a boat to the ra- lief of the woman who had been so afflicted. but bore the aflliction so bravely. .â€"_<...._ An Odd Use for Beer. A few days ago was celebrated, in the town of Bernuu, in Prussia, the anniversary of a. famous victory won by the townsmen of that festive place in 1432. At that time the Hussitcs, under a certain general named Kosku, were besiegmg the town in force, and there was little hopes of holding out against the detemiined fanatics. The siege was raised by means of a very curious strutagem devised by the burgomnster, who may be commended as having turned the appetites of the enemy into a more powerful weapon against them than any number of more deadly-looking arms that could have been manufactured. It seem that the liking for beer was then as strongly developed among the (peeple of the Fatherland as now, and tho iffereuce of creed between the attack- ing and defending armies (lid not imply any dissimilarity in their taste for the national book. But there was this essential differ- ence between the one and the otherâ€"that the besigcrs bud brought with them no brew- houses nor even any suitable cauldrons for the making of their favorite drink, whereas the besieged were in full possesion of everything that was required for the pur- pose. The burgomuster, accordinvly, either gtvo orders, or at least made a suggestion, that every brewer in Bernau should at once set and brew as much as he cculd of his best ale. Into the vats was then intro duccd a sufficient quantity of well-disguised narcotic. The casks Wcrc packed for ex- portation and dcsputchcd inn long train at night from the gates. They were naturally sailed by tho thirsty Hussith outside, and their contents immediately distributed amongst the soldicry. The following day saw the latter all stretched. and in a more or less insensib'c condition. on the ground. and an opportune sortie by the besieged cud- cd in the death or capieurc of some of them and the flight of the rest. Koskn was amongst the fugitives who escaped : but his saddle, which was left behind, was taken as a trophy, and still adorns the town hall of lleruau as one of its principal curiosities. -â€"â€"-â€"_â€"--__.0 -we».__, ..
