Tre campaign for prohibition hae been well opened ip this city by Mr. Buchanan. Hie addresses in the Opera House yester- day were stirring ; and the attendance in the evening represented all classes of the

community. In the couree of his address | Mr. Buchanen emphasiz:d the tact that the

RUINED THE SALE.

A young lady from the city was try- ing her hand as an amateur saleswoman in a plantation store one morning last week when an old colored woman, gor- geously arrayed in her Sunday clothes, entered the store and, pointing to a bot- tle of German cologue on one of the highest shelves, asked:

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

—It is bardly possible that the Maritime Board of Trade has done anything so utter- ly foolish as that;which is reported in our

legislating, of making the Jaw, then the Parliament world have to face these sub- sidary questions, but they were not ger- mane toihe present ise#ue, The man who recognized intemperance as a great evil, who believed that the liquor traffic pro- duced and sustained the evil, and that the proper attitude of the Government to a treftic which produced and eustained evil, was to interdict and prohibit it, was bound by every consideration of common sense to vote “ye.” on. the ballot. Pro- hibititionists, Mr. Buchanan said, had so much faith it the righteousness of their cause andin their atility to establish it in the face of all opporents, that they were delighted to find the opportunity of meet- ing this opposition, and could be depended upon toturo the present occasion to the best porsidle account, in makieg and strengthening public opinion for the final struggle of concreting sentiment into legislation and administration. The annti«prohib‘tionists would put up the battle at three points mainly; lst, that prvvibition was an arbitrary invasion ot personal liberty; 2nd, that the public chest could not s and the strain of the Joss to revenue which would follow the enact-

ment of such & law; 3rd, that it eould not be enforced. The first of those Mr. Buchanan dealt

with at some length, making a forcable argument; the latter two points will be dealt with thie evening.

Montreal Gazette: There is a New York di*cassion going on as to whether the name “Old Glory,” applied to the United States flag is, like the air of tne United States National Avthem, taken from the British. One writer, in a New York paper, says the Union Jack bas beén thus designated for two hundred years, a time longer than the existence of the Stars and Stripes, If the Yankees like the name, however, British people might well be willing that they should have a monopoly of it. Itisa somewhat boastful appellation fora nation~ al ensign, and is realiy not often used by Britieh people to designate the national standard, which, in a good many regiments is appropriately, and lovingly, alluded to

ae “‘the rag.”’

Valuable Ware.

At the Saveton sale, in London, a few years ago, a service of old Sevres ware was sold for $5,000. The genuineness of this set was proved by certificates is- sued to the owners by the French gov- ernment, writes I’. Vizetelly in Godey’s. But by far the most valuable service turned out at the Sevres pottery (in 1778) was made for the Czarina Cath- erine Il of Russia and consisted of 745 pieces, which cost $65,630.

The Sevres ware, old or modern, is usually light in color and daintily dec- orated with flowers or figure subjects tastefully arranged. The porcelain itself, although of good texture, is in- ferior to that of the English potteries. Decorated pieces generally bear pic- torial panels on white ground, sur- rounded by frames of gilt scrollwork. ‘These, as well as the tableware, -are quite in keeping with the national char- acter. Although the Sevresworks are still in operation, they are kept busy in copying ancient Chinese and Japanese models instead of’ increasing their rep- utation in the manufacture of the wares which made them famous.

Blew Off the Fiy.

‘“‘T was once speaking at a temperance meeting in Green Bay,’’ says ex-Gov- ernor Peck of Milwaukee, ‘‘and in the course of my remarks I looked about for some water. A mug had been placed be- side me, and how it could have happen- ed at a temperance convention I do not know, but it was a beer mug filled with water. Well, it was a warm day and where there is convention food spread out on @ warm day there are likely to be flies.

‘*There were flies, and one had light- ed trustingly on the surface of the wa- tcrin that mug. I saw him as I lifted it, and 1 did the most natural and bu- mane thing I could think of—blew him off the water. Well, they cheered for five mjnutes. And to this day I suppose you can’t persuade a Green Bay man that anybody from Mi!vraukee can drink & glass cf water, even ut a temperance convention, without first blowing of the foam.’’
