From the Christian Sun.
To Hie Friends of Temperance.
At (lie first session of tho Supremo
Council of the Friends of Temperance,
hold in Petersburg, on the 25th, 2Gtl»
and 27th days of Junc 1807, the follow
ing resolutions were adopted :
Resolvtd, Ist., That the Secretary,
of the Supreme Council be directed to
forward to every Subordinate Council
nowin existence and to such Councils as
shall be organized previous to the next
meeting of this body, a copy of the pledge
as proposed by Dr. L. B. Anderson, and
request each Council as to decide wheth
er they prefer the pledge as it now stands
as adopted Ly this hotly, or the pledge
prepared by Dr. Anderson, and request
that thoy forward their decision to thu
Secretary of this Council.
Resolved, 2nd., That should two
thirds of the Councils, in existence on
the Ist day of November, decide in favor
of the pledge as proposed by Dr. Ander
son, it shall then be the duty uftho Pres
i lent of the Supreme Council as soon ns
practicable to issue his proclamation to
the several Councils, dcolaringthe pledge
of the Order ol tlie Friends of Temper
ance.
Resolved, 3rd., That if the necessary
means can be procured outside the Treas
ury of the Supreme Council, in due time,
that, the Secretary he directed to forward
with the pledge the view as presented by
Dr. And rson.
In compliance wifi above resolu
tions, the Secre'urv (" i ward to each
Subordinate Council,; . ■ two copits of
the Chkisiian Sun, eoii’uiniug the
pledge and remark- tI) Anderson. —
He ' ' ■ that the quetiiou of
c! ■ y, fu ly and prayer
ful * .he decision of each
Coutici. attestui by the President and
Secretary of tlu: Council, should be for
warded at once through the Local Vice
President, the undersigned, Secretary of
the Supreme Council.

Constipation oi' Subordinate Councils
ARTICLE IT.
OBLIGATION.
Sec. 1 —No member of this Council
shall make, buy, or sell, or use, Distilled,
Adulterated, or Imported Spitita of any
kind, as a beverage.
Slip. 2. —Xo member shall use mere
ly for social pleasure, or the gratification
"of appetite. Domestic Beers, Wine, or
Cider. And in the - use of such articles,
for necessary Refreshment or Diet, he
shall carefully and conscientiously ab
stain from all intemperance.
Sec. 3. —Each member, to the best of
his knowledge and ability, shall’ strictly
conform to all the principles and precepts
of the Order of the Friends of Tl.w
prrance.
Thts obligation ptecludes the use of all
inUi.cica’ltvj drifting merely lor si eial
pleasure, or the gratification of appetite.
Any member who conscientiously believe
it necessary for Ins good, may use light
Domestic \Yinrs. Beers, and Ciders,
purely for refreshment.or diet. Every
member is obligated to avoid evil habits
; n 1 associations, and make the elevationt
of itu 1 whole moral man, the great, object
of bis solicitude. In this latter respect,
the proposed obligation differs from ail
other pledges, and transforms our broth
ers from the attitude of purely neyatice
agents, to active, conscientious, uggres
sivc members of society. The old
‘•pledge,’’ on the oilier band, is purely
negative, only designed and adapted to
fix.be attention of an immortal mind,
on the idea of total abstinence from in
toxicating liquors as a beverage. I there
fore, would ever denounce it.
1. —Because it imposes a burthen not
required by the Bible.
2. —Because it is not sus'ained by the
nlltfs of History or Revelation.
o. —It is not justified by necessity or
expediency.
4. —lt has r.cver, and can never, se
curftthc sympathy and co-operation of
Christians.
5. —Of itself, it has never reformed
one drunkard in a million.
6. —lts warmest advocates, after a trial
of forty years, admit its complete fail
ure.
7. —The aagument on which it rests
for support, is the foundation of all the
Puritanical Heresies, Isms, Innovations,
Errors and Crimes, which now curse and
blight our country.
On the other hand, I most earnestly
advocate the adoption of the propose sub
stitute.
L-—Because it is sustained by precepts
enjoined and examples presented in the
Holy Sciipturos. It, wn in accordance
with these principles, t ATeichNed' ek,
Priestofthe Most High Gud—Abraham
the Father of the ‘aithi'ui—lsaac, Jacob,
Job, M'ses, Joshua, David, Solomon, the
P” *, V i- and his Apostles, used
the pure, y : when intemperutely imbib
ed, intoxicating wines of Palestine.—
What our Saviour did, was right, and
neccssatily bad no evil tendency ; hcuce,
the use of pure Domestic Winss, in strict
accordance with the example and pre
cepts of tho Saviour, is not calculated to
predispose to, or produce drimkeness.—
And tlie modern Puritanical inference,
must bo abandoned as unround in princi
ple, and false in fact.
2. —Because the only hope of arresting
the tide of Intemperance in our country i
reposes, upon an impoveuient in ths mor- |
al sentiment, coupled with an abundent !
supply of pure, light, domestic \\ ines, |
Beer,’ and Cider. For the introduction i
of Yin", and the manufacture of pure
wine, has done more, towards arresting
Temperance in Sweden in ten years, than
a!T moral organizations, and legislative
restrictions had done in a century.
3. —Because drunkness is almost utt* j
known iu the Vine growing countries of
Europe; and iutcmperur.ee has declined j
a hundred per cent in England, since j
the removal of the heavy duties, and the j
introduction of the light wines ot France.
4.—Because su b men as Agassiz, |
Jackson, Holmes, Dr. Sampson, Dr.
Moore, and Professor Scho-le De Veer, 1
are fully satisfied, from ample obsci ra
tion in the Vine growing countries of
Europe, that the introduction of the Vine
in this country, would he more promotive
of Temperance, than anything which
the moralist and patriot could de.
s.—Because, if we meet the great tide
of Immigrants which will soon pour into
our country, with a total abstinent pledge
we will at nice roped then l . But if we
discreetly press the claims ol this obliga
tion, we will secure their co-operation,
end bring them under the great moral
principles of bur young an! charitable
Order.
(i. —Because, while by a total abstin
ence pledge, wo are vainly striving to save
the drunkard, we are repelling tho great
mass of young, and virtuous of our land,
as well as a largo majority of the chi is-!
tian comm unity*, who can never he indu
ced to abstain totally from the tt«c of
such u: tides of reiWhuirnt or diet as our
Saviour made and used. The conse
quence is, the sublime moral precej ts of
our Order never reach the former class,
and they arc gradually seduced into intem
perate habits, which nothing short cf
Soverign -race, can ever bleak, in a
fruitless effort to maintain one point, we
are driven from thejwhole field.
7. Because, when Paul says he “wiii
cat no meat’’ &e., he does r.et allude
either to the ‘nature or effects of “wine”
or ‘-meat’’ but solely to the influenced'
the use of such agents, as had been off
end m sa-njlce to Idols, in promoting
Idol worship. And since no one can say
that Timothy did not drink wine, because
he esteemed it wrong in itself to do so,
no one can present his example as an ar
gument against our position,
8. Because this proposed substitute,
not only prohibits the use of even pure
Domestic Wir.es, Beer, Cider, &e., so
cial pleasure and pcrsnnrd gratification,
hut it goes beyond and above all other
“plidges ’ and denounces all' wtemper
ance, whether in drinking, eating, or
sensual gratification, of every kind.
9. —Because, it tends to improve the
whole moral man—Reforming evil habits
—breaking up wicked associations--ele
vating the m ral sentiment- -inspiring a
love for religion—and sending us forth
as zeuious, active laborers, in the great
harvest field of earth.
10. Because, with such an obligation,
our brotherhood can consistently main
tain the principle of “Temperance,” and
at the same time, promote the growth of
the Vine, and the manufacture of pure,
light, unadulterated wines iSre , thereby
discouraging the use of £ilie poisonous
compounds of our country.
11. —Because, this obligation gives no
license to indulge appetite, which was not
aff.-rded by the oil pledge, For he who
would under the plea of “relreshtsont’’
or “diet” use domestic wines, &e,. to
gratify appetite, would not hesitate under
excuse of “physical infirmity” to drink
Whiskey or Brandy under the old rcstiie
tion.
12. —Because, this obligation comports
more strictly with the cardinal principles
we have adopted—is calculated to cover
the whole moral obligation, both as to
appetite and passion—diet ami drink
conduct and association. Is designe 1
to aim at a Temperance reform, on the
only basis which such men as Prut Agas
siz, J)rs, Sampson and Moore, and Gen’i
K. E, Lee, think it can be effected. In
presenting the Temperance reform in a
new and untried, but. j urtdy Scriptural
phase—is designed to lie coupled with
a Ilium), couched in thesuh'itnr Lingua"

The Triumphs of Faith, sth. Importance
and pleasure of Charitable toil —with
signs, of recognition and warning—sig

spring from die principles of the obliga
tion, run through the text of the Ritual,
and arc consummated in the great work
of moral reform. Thereby establishing

I was requested by the SuPKiiiiE
CoUMCIL of the Friends of Temperance,
to prepare this proposed substitute for
the old S. T. Pledge, with tho remarks
made in its support, !'or publication. I
herein present the propi sed substitute,
and a brief synopsis of tho argument —
it would he impossible to re produce the
whole Indeed I have not tho time, if 1
could. No doubt upon the action of the
Councils on this question, is suspended
cur future fate as » great, moral, temper

ooneeived opinions—tho fear of the taunts
and ridicule of the fanatical horde who
who will hiss and howl at his heels—e«n
aider the question in the light of pa3t ex
perience and hopeless failure of previous
efforts, based on the puritanical principal
of total abstinence. And rising to the
dignity and grandura of a self-poised,
sell-reliant, and independent investigation
of truth, move forward to the high alid
elevated position, while the teachings of
Inspiration, the experience of the past,
the needs of the present, and the hopes
and necessities of the future, imperiously
demand at the hands of every Southern
Christian, statesman and philanthropist.
And when this is accomplished, nothing
will remain to seoure for us, the most ex
alted and triumpliant success, but to
“Trust in God, and do the right,”
