That the Scott »Act would be bene.
Octal, from a worldly poiut of view,
in a few isolated easee, there cannot
bo any doubt. Take any locality
that onto tnayj take Dor own town
for imitative, with a population of
nearly 3,000, the person that would
say there arta half dozen drunkards
among AOC would. risk his reputation
for veracity. And we do not think
shat Clinton ie much less free from
tide -utifortunate class than else-
where. There• are probalrly 600
adulte.in the 3,000. It would be.
manifeetly uufeir to restrain or pro
hildt 594 persons from temperme
sumptuary indulgence in order to
restate a half dozen ,f11:1111 intemper-
ate liquid gin ttony, Rather rest rai ti
the half dozen. And the Crooke
'Act, which we no* have, if proper.
ly enforced iequite eotopetent to do
so. Penalties eau lie enforced against
vendors for supplying liquors to
mirrors, drunken men or habitual
drunkaids, Hie only class that the
Scott A.cb is intended to protect. If
public sentiment is not in accord
with tho law,:or if incompetent offi-
cials are remiss in attendiug to their
duties, educate the fortoer and re-

The monetary loss to the revenue

It would seem that the only effect-

by educating the people from the

through the press, mid by means of
the various societies and social or.

On Sunday evening juot as church

the beaveno that one MOMent efore

appeered brilliantly illunduated,
'Io the ooutar the effect was heighten-
ed by the myriado of sparks that
were rioting and decending like a
vast pyrotechnic display. Tkila glare ,
led workers and eight-seere, alike, to
the skating rink which wao found to
be *blase from end to end. The en-
gine wee on the ground in good time,
but there seemed an unneceesery
delay in getting up steam. When

Mr. Crabb'e reoldenee which by Shia
tide time was burning along the
edge of the roof and at several of the
aide windows. At this time the roof
ot the rink fell in, and was followed
gluiest Irnmediately by the ends,
which. greatly assisted the firemen
in oaving ti r.Crobb'ithouse. As skin
as tbe fire at Mr, Crebli's was under

sustained by Zr, Crabb was residence
roof and windows badly detuaged,
and ice house and fence destroyed,
the whole ot• vvhioh hi fully insured,
frie also Betted that the rink is fully

not been able to verify the etatement.
The cause of the tire must have been

cupied„ From different sources we
have heard that several boys have
• een in the habit of playing in the
building, but as the building seemed
to have been fired all over at once,
it is hardly likely that mere boys did
it. Providence mut good to me on
Sunday evening, for the wind blew M
the right direction, and the engine
boiler did not burst, a calamity rend
by many to have very nearly occurred.
We trust our city fathers will at once
proceed to appoint -an engineer, to
take charge of the engine,_ who has
the time and ability to make himself

was wont; to say Weequirecl great
