Sir,—After all we have heard from Mr. Moore on the subject of natural liberty, it is somewhat anomalous that he should be found pleading for the enactment of a license law. What is a ‘“‘license to sell spirituous liquors” but a bundle of pro- hibitions? ‘*Thou shalt not ‘sell to a minor? thou shalt not’sell to an Indian ; thou shalt not sell after eleven o’clock at night ; thou shalt not sell ca the Sabbath day ; thou shalt not sell to a man after thou hast. made him drunken.” Stripped ot their verbiage, these comprise the usual prohibitions contained in a license to sell liquor. Mr. Moore, being a lawyer, may find one or two mure, but, including the

other legitimate business of our city? . Mr. Moore, with an affected solemnity, asks :

“What share in the blame of those sad things is to fall on the shoulders of “the men who brought the Scott Act into force?” I owish to tell him plainly and honestly, none whatever. The supporters of the Scott Act say to those seeking per- mission to ply their nefarious business,

“thou shalt not sell.” We cannot strike hands with you im this: business,; and thus become partakers with you.” But Mr. Moore seeks an alliance with a. traftic, the results. of which appear to make him shudder! He coolly sits down as a mem-

ber of this community, and delegates his authority to John Smith, granting him all the privileges required to start bis greggery, and then ** washes his hands in imnocency ” of the iniquitous, results! That line of conduct was pursued by one eighteen hun- dred years ago, and the world kas been gazing upon the man’s conduct ever. since with sapreme eontempt. When temperance men.are asked to grant license they say, no! If the would-be liquor dealer takes upon himself the responsibility of selling,

none of the blame of his act-attaches to the man who thus refused to sanction his busi- ness.

_ But Mr. Moore posts himself behind the dereliction of duty on the part’ of the offi- cers of the law whose prerogative it is ‘to enforee the provisions vf the Scott Act.

His position 1s an exceedingly silly one— one from which the following well-chosen remarks of Sumner Stebbins, M. D., will

‘completely dislodge him :

“*I do not expect to make men pious or virtuous by force of law, but Ido rely upon ‘aw to, make them peaceable and civil to ong another, and assist, in connection with moral means, in the "ren.oval from their midst of that which has ever been a pesti- lent and venomous disturber, I am aware that there are some professed temperance men who have been led to think that a pro- hibitory law does no good where it fails to eradicate at onee and forever the liquor ireffic, whether executed or not. That, certainly, is a very preposterous idea. As well might a physician be reproached for having failed to effect acure im a case where, through the negligence or treachery of the nurse, the remedy he prescribed was not haif administered. The law, like every other, does good/just so far as it is executed, and may be used to stopthe evil entirely,

above, to what do they amount? Simply

and is confessedly the only law that can stop it., It being the only thing that ever mede any impression on the nuisance it is desired to exterminate, the choice is not between it and a license law. Does the law. of God, which says ‘Thou shalt not kill,’ do no good because murder is not en- tirely prevented ? Opposition there is, and always will be, to avy law—otherwise, there would’be no need of law. Surely a

law that can be effectually executed, is as

;good as can rationally be desired. The

human intellect may be challenged to con- ceive of a better: until one is invented that will go alone—that will execute itself —that will, of its own volition, seize every liquor-seller and bring him to justice, or,

what would be better, still, fasten upon the offender when about to commit the act, and inflict the precise punishment mericed.

Such a law should be omnipotent and o1ni- present! Until we are blessed with one

|of that character, we had better be con-

tent with the next best thing, which is the Maine Law” (which corresponds with our Scott Act) ‘tand blame ourselves if it is not thoroughly enforced. There is no escaping the conclusion—ii that cannot be enforced, no other can. It is not without reason,

therefore, that all thoughtful, earnest and well-informed temperance men are for a prohibitory law—first, last and all the time —aud opposed, determinedly, and, I might add, everlastingly opposed to all others,”

Sr,—Your correspondent in last issue of THe WEEKLY EXAMINER under the head- ing of ** Horse Notes,” makes a siight er- lor. He classes Messrs. McMillan & An- near’s horse Hepburn Clyde, and Clow & Poole’s General Burnett as shire horses. . They are thoroughbred Clydesdale horses as will be seen by the Canada and Scotch Stud Bocks, and very superior animals The farmers of King’s County are to be congratulated on having in the County two such pure-bred ' repre- sentatives of the good old Clydesdale breed, and, no doubt, a few years will show a great improvement in heavy draft horses in this County. The farmers should be careful not to part with their good breed- ing mares, especially the young one from these Clydesdales horses, fur they cannot expect to have first-class horses till they have first-class mares.

I agree with your correspondent in ail he has said regarding the different trott ng horses in the County. He might have added to his list a very fine young Hernando owned by John Buchannan, of Lower Mon- tague, also Dingwall’s, Capt. Jeff, of St. Peter’s Bay, beth nice animals with Salacan blood in them.
