Mr. .lack Winter, who with all bit preci sions of interest In religious rosUur con tinues to bo a very vindictive pureon, may lay what bo pluatoa, ami stilt tbo lacl will remain that Mr. Uurnuld ii tbo moat com petent suporlntflndoot tho gita company has over bad. llatnay occiaionnlly inako miatakoa, but gonorally bu Is fair, and tlio gas company would loae a vnhublo serv ant If ho should bu disposed of or with draw the light of lila gaa-liglited coutitu- nanco from our city. tkmhkranck. In most of tho cities of tbo wait and tbe woat tbe religious women liavo buck led on tho armor ot prayer, and have at tacked tbo salo of intoxicating liquors. You have boon pleased to say, sevonil times, that thla peculiar crusnJo would amount to nothing ; but 1 cannot agroo with you. Tho xeal of tho Uod-foariog women of thla laud muat result in good of soino kind. It may not touch tbo boarts of many of tlio saloon-keepers, but in tho provldonco of tho Grout Mnator who rulos over all, It will surly result to bis glory and onsoquoutly to tlu bonetlt of oolely. Why thu Christian ladios of Cairo why the Cliriatlan mon why tho ministors why tbo friends of tomporanco bavo not movod In this mtttor I cannot understand. Tboy toom to bo ufraid of thesaloon-konpurs and their frionde; and, you must permit mo to say, I more tlrnii uapect that The Bulletin, tho 'Sun' and tho '(iazclto' havo boon thrown to tho aide of liquor by tbo fact tbut you all foar tbo powor of the rum aollor. i had hoped bettor things of tbo editor of Tub Bul letin, but you aro said to bo ambitious, and probably you bollovo that, if you should say u word la opposition to tho deep damnation of drunkenness, Herbert, Uatoa, Blautau, Jaeckol, StockUeth and other liquor men would take from your columns tboiradvortlaemouta and not tup port you fur oflico when noxt you bocomo a candidate. I know bow frail human na ture ia, aud I can pity your woakuoaa If I cannot oxcuao your omission to do your duty. A day or two ago you intlmHtod that tbe saloon men intended to uttompt to capture the council, so that they might ru duco tbe liquor llcenao from $100 to 200, and 1 inforod moro from the tons or your articlo than from anything contalnod In it that you sympathised with tbo move menu You are wrong. Tlio license it not too high. It should bo $500 instead of $200; but with tbo allies tbo saloon mon of Cairo havo, 1 am fearful thoy can do anything and everything thoy ploase Note.

TINKLING OYMBAL AND &OUN1). I NO IB it ASS. NOT MUCH OP ANYTHING, BUT A QltEAT DEAL OF NOTHING. STUFF SOFT AS DOWNY PIL LOWS AltE, To the Kditok or The Uullktis! I Imagine that your remark! in this morn ing's ilULt.KTl.v aro meant for a coup tl' yraec, but notwithstanding I am here again. 1 am sorry to say that tbo editor has talked a great doal without really Bay ing anything, but that I) u constitutional falling lu tbo gentleman. 1 tee, at I have often soon before, that It Is n gigAntlo task to bring him to any point i. e., to get him to aay decidedly that au und so la a principle to whl'jh 1 assent. It bo ever did aay ao It waa with n mental reserva tion. Ho colncidua with everybody, haa as many colora aa tho'spectritoi, Htid.us the undulations never bavo Impinged him ex ternally, it is not his fault. I had not tho romotest idea of trying to champion Dr. Brigham In n con tost with tho editor. Ac'iampion ia somotbing of which tbo doctor haa no noed. 1 wish ed to mnko u suggestion in a polite way, and I think It waa fairly male, und the pooplo will decide tor themtolvos whether tho ranting of tho editor did utij thing to disprove tho Mens ndvanc.il. Suppose Dr. Ilrigham di I not Intend Ij croito any Impression in regard to unseen forces In nature, what baa tho ebullition of tho editor to do with it 7 Ho taioi a groat doal of pains to say that Dr. Brig- bam wiolda as able i pen aa K-c, and I will tako similar pains to aay that Dr. Brigham wioid fully ns able a pen a tho editor not that I would, for a moment, tako tin) trouble to compare E-o with tbo editor but just to intimato that thoro aro pooplo outside of tho editorial fraternity who aro entirely competent to apeak ot literary effusions and tho writers there of. Next in order in tho editor's remarks comes a jumble of touaatioue, (tho editor la too obtuse to fool auy) impiuglnga, (a vory llttlo implngu would lay out tho edi tor) liquid, (tho olitor ia vury well ac quainted with certain kinds, undulations. (of tho editor u-.'ter tbo liquids havu im pinged bin.; tombs, (which no doubt, is something toward which tbo editor will undulatu nt sumo future time) light, which do not shine lu ibo editor) Impres sions, (tbo editor is to obtuse Im never had auy) detections, i very hard to delect what the editor ia trying to Impinge) in tolllgencies, (not including tbe olitor) darknease', (in which the editor ia the darkest) acientists, (among whom even a aemblanco or a ailbouotto of tbe editor novercould bo found) faculties, (tbo edi tor being impinged with nono undulat ing darkneas) issues, (tbo odilor's all be ing aido-issues) propositions, (thu nature of which tho editor cannot grasp) aud naturo, (which waa vary impartial to tho editor.) Thla jumble coulJ bo ili'ontanglod easy enough for tho editor, but it would bu a waste of timo to do sj. Ho haa ao much bay toed in hla hair, that Ilia logical acumen tenda entirely toward tbo way to tho door of Congress which ia closed ut present for poor John. When you say that "tho Illustration from Prof. Tyndal ia familiar to us, ' E-c thinks that this particular assertion ia a llttlo atrotcb of tho imagination Ono really conversant with that discovery would havo spoken of It in a moro modest way. Your uaiertion "that there is no con nection nono whatever botwoon tlio im pinging of undulations and unknown forcoa in naturo" Is a moat lamenlabludie play of Ignorance. In fact 1 did not ex pect such a show of bigotry, oven from a journalist. A force in nature may bo tho potltivo effect of the Impinging of un dulatleus.
