Sra,-—In most civilized communities the huit of public sentanent puts a stigma on che man who drinks and the drunkard is created with contempt and derision ; but ‘here in Kentucky they mot only ignore trunkenness asa mark of disgrace, but ac- oually think no more of a debauch than il it was the sim lest and most ordinary cir- sumstance of their daily duty, A *‘drunk” excites no comment, and whether it be a laborer or a high official on a spree it seems to be regarded as common as pay day and creates as little criticisin as if to drink was the chief aim and for that matter the chiet end of man, In many towns in “Old Kentucky” it is part of the glory of the male population that they can be depended upon to “*paint the town red” upon the slightest provoca- tion, and through the kindly aid of the in- genious American paragrapher, the impres- sion has gone abroad thac the native iten- tuckian is totally unacquainted with the taste of water. This is hardly to be wondered atina country where whiskey of world-wide celebrity is so plenty and where stills for its manufacture abound on every hill-top in the interior of the State. The “corn cracker” or ‘*moonshiner” is a constant thorn in the flesh to the United States oflicials. He is generally a dweller in the mountainous counties, several miles from a line of railroad—generally selecting a site which offers a safe retreat from the prying gaze of the United States Internal Revenue Officers. Here he_ be- gins the construction of his ‘‘distillery” which is avery primitive affair, and so concealed among the ravines and under- brush that nething short ot an instrument with the alcoholic propensities of a work- house bum could pussibly locate it. The Internal Revenue tax on whiskey is 90 cts. (ninety) a gallon, and by working bard the ‘‘moonshiner” can manuiacture from 15 to | 20 gallons a week. He can easily dispose of ali he can make, for ‘‘moonshine” whiskey is said to be the pure jnice of the corn and free from the chemicals used by large distillers to give it color or age. The risks attending the manufacture of ‘‘moonshine” whiskey are such that only men of nerve would undertake it. The fines arc heavy snd the punishment ranges from six months to 14 years in prison, and prison to the average ‘‘moonshiner” means alingering death ; tor being used to the) free mountain air, they contract diseases which often eud their days before their a " . a ~~ oe ene eee. <etele Sincie Cortes Two Cents. VOL. 19.-NO. 144, The Strength of the Baptisis. The Baptist voar book for 1886 has Leon receiv.d. In its 2’0 pages are ininutes of convent!’ ..s of maritime provinces, and of the associativuns—4 in Nova Scotia, 5 in New Brunswick, aud 1 in P. EL Island. Reports of home missions, foreign missions, education, church sustentation, Sabbath schvols, periodicn's and book and tract se- ciety, together with statistics of churches, missions, #nd all the principal maiters con- nected with this denomination, make this little book a mine of wealth to Baptiste oud a source of interest to all other denomina- tions. In the maritime provinces there are 357 cnurches, 43,453 members and 2,508 baptisiis during the year. in the Dominion of Canada the Baptists have 750 churches, 540 ministers, and 71,808 mem- bers. Inthe United States they number 28,953 churches, 16,191 ministers and 2,- 572,238 members. In Great Britain there are 4,593 churches, 2,444 ministers, and 394,802 coiamunicants. Their total num- bers in all countries are 94,215 churches, 25,616 ordained ministers and 3,140,556 members. The contrib:tions for mussion and benevolent purposes durng the year aggregate $19,057, divided as follows: Home missions, £5,096 ; foreign missions, $5,206 ; Acadia liege, $4,575 ; relief to intirm ministers, $500; ministerial educa- tion, $500. Collected by the women’s sv- cieties, $3,110. The Acadia college was managed at the comparatively small sum of $9,372 for the year. ‘he home missions board expended $8,240, employing 59 men for longer or shorter periuds, who pre hed over 500 sermons. ‘The foreign mission board expended $8,557, and employed ten Canadian missionaries in Hindestan, (Mad- ras presidency) and a number of native preachers and teachers.

These ‘‘mountaineers’ are a hardy yeople, inured to heat and cold, and of large stature many being periect types of physical man- hood. one in a thousand being able to read ox write, and their communication with the} outside world is limited to an occasional | visit of a not very friendly nature from a Mtective or vificer, sent to hunt out ulicit stills. The detectives generally travel dis- guised as peddlers or stock-buyers, for the mountaineers are not kindly disposed toward the fraternity, and the revenue officer who ventures into their stronghold undisguised, must be a man of nerve and skill. The mountaineer is a crack shot, and he carries his Winchester with him |\wherever he goes. When caught in the jact of ‘‘running a blind,” if he gets th: '*drop” on the detective, the Jatter’s soul is jalready half-ways on the threshold oi iheaven er hell. The arrival of a revenv officer in their neighborhood is com- municated to dwellers twenty miles distant by means of fires lighted on hill-tops to warn them of the near approach of their dreaded enemy. ‘The officers are shunned as if from some plague-stricken city, and a pronounced ** boyeett ” is placed upon them by the inhabitants. | The officers often finding themselves unable to purchase for love or money a meal in a hotel or fodder for their horses. They are harrassed on all sides by the mountaineers, and are accounted lucky by their brother officers if they return with a ‘* whole skin.” The mountaineers acamire pluck in an officer, however, and have often been known to parley with a “nervy” one, when he could as easily have dropped him in his tracks, There are no schools and no doctora, and only about once a year a circuit preacher, riding a sad-eyed mule happens along to minister to their spiritual wants. If there is anything in this sinful world that a Kentucky mountaineer has a con- tempt for it’s for a *‘biled” shirt anda high collar. The candidate for office who seeks their vote must don an old rebel army shirt, and stick his trouser legs inside his boots if he wishes to come within a stone’s throw of a chance of election. The mountaineer wouldn’t listen to the most silveried eloquence that swells up through a laundried shirt band, and he would not trust a man who wears a pair of cuffs iv. a glass of buttermilk. oe Ludlow, Ky., Nov. 10, 1886. Storm Sicnats.—As the coming of a great storm is heralded by the display of cautionary signals; so is the approach of that dread and fata] disease, consumption of the lungs, usually announced in advasece by pimples, blotches eruptions uicers, glandular swellings, ard kindred outward manifestations of internal ‘blood poison, which, if not prowptly expe iled from the system, attacks the delicate tissues of the lungs, causing them to uleerate and jbreak down. Dr. Pierce's Gobien Medical | Distoreay is the great remedy for this, as for all diseases having their origia in bad blood. It improves the appetite and digestion, in- ‘creases nutwition and builds up the wasted systcm. 8a W _— -—- 2 -< a ee aed ac | Tux only Steam sewing Slacnine and un Repairing Shop in tie Dominiou, and ihe : ; > oss “” | my . p. 1z¢ } - hey are very illiterate, scarcely | Pp ‘ ' iannounced that the government #28 f pri. 2 Vova Scetia ipaekeral are rat Siow, and we x te nem. nally as follows :~-Unculled lota 11 to 814; vo. 1 extra $25; No. 1 ordinary $14 to 818: to $12; No. 3 iarve $9 to $10 7, Receipts of Mackerel the week incluting 1,465 bar- as : . : » foreien ports, and 1,000 barrels i.

The agricultural situation in England hes been rectiving attention from JProfessor Wallace, of the Edinburgh University. ‘io asserts that not enovgh is known as to the serious losses of the English and Scotch farmers during the last six or eight years. If evil times confinue and no adequate relief comes there is no danger that wice- spread ruin may result. A clidtnyr ceale of rent is advocated against the system of leasing land for shorter or longer terms. The latter plan, so long in vegue, is dvomed to vanish. It is proposed to base the sliding scale in fixing rent leased on the average prices taken in the local markets. It appears that in some farming districts this isa time-honored method of leasing. During ihe Inst six months [rof. Wallace has been investigating the condition of agriculture inthe United Kingdom. He finds that where mixed farming has pre- vailed against the single crop idea the suf- fering from the Cepression in agriculture has been materialiy less. There isan evi- dent tendency in Engiand to give increased attention to scientitic agricultural educa- tion. —_—- The Labor Problem in Leclgium. In Belgium the labor agitation of the past year is apparently going to have a dis- tinet effect on legisiation. At the opening of the Belgian Chaimbers on Monday it was vould bring forward bills providing fur the free formation of professional bodies, for the establishment of arbitratica and concilia- tion councils, for the regulation of the labor of women #ud children, and for the repres- sion of abuses connected with the payment of wages. Other projects proposea contem- plate the development of sick and previ- dent institutions, and of insuratice systems for workingmen aid schemes for tee. theting the construction of dweliings for w.os.aug- meu. A promise of amnesty for percous convicted of participating in the riots of ‘as also held out by the goyern- meut. in Kugland efforts are being made to coerce government action in relation to the ivLor question.
