'Hie tocsin of war is heard no more in oorland. The bloody str fe is ended. Our young men are no longer called from fathers, mothers, and pleas ant homea, to meet political foes. Lile is no longer endangered by cannon, hall and bomb ; and vet another enemy—one which, according to statistics, has sent four millions of our race into—not a pa triot’s—but a disgraceful grave, within.the la.-t twenty years, confronts them. What a monster enemy to our race is Intem perance I For scores of years the efforts of the good and philanthropic evert where, to extirpate it from the land, have been unavailing. It, hasover ridden the pulpit, the press, and the benevolent societies that have been organized to battle against, it And yet it is upon the increase. Since the termination of the late terrible war, we find it ev everywhere—in citv, town and county—among old and young. The heart, sickens at the thought that with all our other difficulties, we are to he cursed with the baleful influences of intemperance ! If we could save our voting men from becoming drunkards, there would be some hope for the country. Will they—the young—the hnpe of the nation, listen to the following reasons for aban doning forever the use of ardent spirits ? Ist, The use of it will do von no good. It, will not inerease voar proper!v, but will add to yenr povertv. I »i!’ no' invigorate votir hoilv or yr.nr mind, for p’tvstcians tell no it contains no more nourishment than fire and lightning. I' wifi not increas" the number of mar respectable friends, ror will it * • least purify or elevate taut affec tions, nr lb vou for the endearrnenta of domestic life Why, thin, will von, rational beings, cupab'e of the pure*' etjovment, yield to a eu tom in no respect useful, but rather the occasion of countless mis-res 1 Again, the zse of a r ileat spiri's, hue a pervert ing and debasing influence. Men excited bv ihig poison, will sav and do things, which, under r> her circumstances, they would abhor. They will slan der, throw awav propertr, off nd mndestv, profane gacred things and places, and indulge in the vilest passions, abuse the nearest relatives, and cover themselves and families with infamy. Those who, by gaming or intrigue, rob others of their proper ty, and those who allure the “simple” and unsus peeting to the chamber of death and hell, as is done in onr large cities, understand this deceitful tendency of ardent spit its. The exhilarating glass Is presented as their first enticement. “Just this once," say thev, with insidious smile ; and so the unwary are "canned ta fall bp little and little." “She urged him rtill to fill another cup, And ip the dark, still night, When God’s unsleeping eve alone can see. He went to her adultrous bed. At morn I looked and saw him not among the youths : I heard his father mourn, his mother ween ; For Done return’d that went with her. The dead Were in her house ; her guests in depth of hell; She wove the winding sheet of souls, and laid Them in the urn of everlasting death.” Such is ever the certain tendency, if not alwavs the fatal termination of the insidious cup. “Wine is a mocker, strong d r ink is raging, and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise." The young should remember that the habit of drinking, once established, is extremely difficult to break off. This is why there are so many indiriduals, even mem bers of churches, so accustomed to drink that all the remonstrances of conscience, the wailings of the ruined, the authority of God, and the odi»m of public sentiment combined, cannot now restrain them. 0, could an angel speak to such m-n, he would thunder with Paul, “ Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of devilt." Let the youth who now turn with shame from such exam ples of inconais'encv and guilt beware of contract ing a habit so hardening to the conscience, so dead ining to the soul. Young men, remember how it renders despised j and degraded those who yield to such habhs. In quire through the city or village for those who are to polluted by vice as to he shut out from all de cent society. Learn their history, and tou will invariably find that the bottle has been their fre quent companion. Enter their retreats of mid night revelry, and you will still find that drink is the ail absorbing diviuitv among them. Should not the most decided reprobation beßiamped upon that which is always found associated with the lowest state of debasement and crime ? The habit of temperance, closely allied to other virtues, will secure for you the respect and confi dence of tte best portion of the community, and thus lend to your more extensive usefulness, as well as prosperity and happiness. The youth who comes up to the resolution of entire abstinence forever, and persuades others so to do, gives evi dence of moral courage, gives evidence that be has the power of self-denial—gives evidence of an intellect aod moral senae predominating over appetite, and Belflsh.ieae, and the laugh of fools j and such is the youth whom a virtuous and Intel— igent community will delight to honor. After next week we will give our readers a great deal more reading matter. * The Future of the South. Since the black storm-cloud* ol War, which for four years hung threatening over our devoted coun try, have now passed away, we are permitted to l< ok once mote into the bright, blue eky beyond, tnd to seek for omen* of a belter and a happier u'ure. During the oontinOAWca of the War we would often picture to ourselves the condition ol the country in the event of the failure of our e use ; who was there that, did not shudder at the f ightful prospect before him? The sense of hu miliation and the degradation of defeat, the ruin at and devastation of our homes, the many noble lives lost, and constitutions shattered, and all for nothing I Add to this the anticipation of trouble from the sudden liberation of the slaves, a change so fraught with dangers of vatious kinds that few could contemplate it unappalled. And yet, we have passed through all, comparatively unharmed. For many months the country Ins exhibited sigus of returning prosperity, aud il Providence will on ly give us one good season for the crops, we shall benohi an activity and hopefulness among out peos pie such as, at one time, we never expected to see again. While thousands of our people have seen their property swept away by the scratch of the pen, and arc vet smarting under the seuse of that, i-justice; while others are mourning over the wreck of their once beautiful homes, yet there are few who can be said to Buffer for the actual nec essaries of life, a>-d the worst that has happened to most of us in this respect, is that we shall have to begin life anew a task not very difficult among such a people, and in such a country, as ours. I hold it is an error that the success of the American people iu agriculture, commerce, arts, and sciences, is due rnaiuly to its constitution and laws. I believe any form of government which only guaranteed protection to life and property, would have seen this nation prosper in precisely the same manner that it has done. We areerro neously taught to look continually to the Legisla ture and Congress for some act to give ne'w impetus to our prosperity. There is not a country on the Globe which ling so many laws made for il it! fifty years as are m >de here in one. A hundred years hence, a lawyer or statesman will have a gigantic task on his hands, when he undertakes to mister all the laws of his country. At the preseut time we are made to look with fear and trembling to the doings of the Washington Congress, or rath er the radical wing of it. lam confident that the firmness and pa rio>i->ra of the President will have the effect of breaking up that destructive element in American politics, and that this struggle will give birrh to anew conservative party organizi tion which will have its ramifications in every cor ner of the Uuion, wherever a lover of his country can be found. With the formation of such a par tv, we may look for a more national and fraternal feeling among the different sections of the country, and for less sectional legislation than heretofore.— After this disitleratum shill have been attained, and even without, ir, we shall see the Southern peo ple rise by their own exertions and by the advtn tages of their situation. I said above that the prosperity of a nation is too often erroneously at tributed to government and laws. I believe that | if this country hud from the beginning been gov- erned tinder the despotic sway of a Rusdin Czar, we should find this people perhaps as prosperous as they have brew, nav, I might sav the late War would in all probability never have had any cause. Why do not the Sou'll American republics make 1 more rapid strides in commerce, agriculture, and all the arts of civilizuion f Their country and natural resources are. in many respects superior to ours, and vet. one western state of our lli ion to -kes more rapid stiides in prosperity in fire years I than those Spait’gh R-pub'ics do in twenty five.— The difference is to be sought in the genius Os the people. The Anglo-Saxon race, coming to this country from England, and here amalgamated and invigorated wirh the Celtic races of Ireland, Franc-- and Spiiin, has produced a type of the human race the equal, or superior of which, the world has never seen. Itsgjigintic mental sud physical en ergies overleap bound tries and obstacles to other impassable. No other race would in so short a time have overrun and peop’ed such a continent., and ieft the impress of is gonitis oq all it grasped, sttd all it undertook. Imagine this people trans planted to a country like Brazil, whose noble stream, the Amazon, has not as vet been agitated by the piddle of a steamboat. That country i posscssed of natural advantages superior to any on both American continents; and yet it is but thinly peopled; but who can doubt what change,, Americans would produce in such a country in a few years? I mike these remarks and compari sons, not to induce emigration to South America —far from it; but to prove that countries owe their prosperity, not to this or that form of govern ment, not this or that climate, or to a peculiar kind of legislation—but to the spirit aud genius of their people. Hence I wish to argue that all the puny and contemptible class legislation uow at tempted at Washington, which may, in part, per ■ haps, he carried through successfully by its Puritan, vindictive and hypocritical advocates, will be unable to keep down Southern energy and enterprise. In times of peace, the prosperity of the Southern planter depends upon the demand for cotton, sugar, etc., and their price in the makets of the w orld.— Washington legis'ation will control neither the amount or quality of his productions, nor the price he is to get for them when carried to market.. Un less he hears of the doings of Congress through the medium of the press, he will remain iu happy ignorance of what his friends—the Sumners and Sfevenses, et id omne genun —are doing for ot agaiast him. Away, then, with all gloomy fore bodings of future persecution from our Northern enemies! Perilsps it would have been far better for us, if we had shown less apprehension of their power and malevolence in former limes. One great benefit the South will detive from the change in her system of labor, is to be found in ; the introduction of a greater diversity of putstiits. , A people cannot be self reliant and self sustaining, j if all its citizens are engaged in nearly the same occupation. It isalread' apparent that towns are being filled up ; and it will not be long before man ufactures of all kinds will be set on foot. I think the better class of disgusted with a sys tem of labor unsuiled to their habits, will await a favorable opportunity to convert their property into cash iu order to pursue some other business in town. Large uumhers, who heretofore encum bered our towus, will now be enabled, wi h camps ritivelj small resources, to settle on farms. The tendency of this is that wealth aud enterprise will congregate in towns, while hardy industry will re tire into the country. It is thus we find it at the North and in Europe ; who will sav that this is not for the best interests of the largest numbers. This increased diversity of pursuit will have a most decisive aud beneficial effect upon the youth of our coaotrv, bv opening for them the avenues of useful and respectable employments, for the want of which heretofore, most of our boys and young men grew up iu idleness and worthlessness, too often degenerating into vine and ruin. “The hoy is the father of the man ;" our children wil constitute the nation after we are gone; what bet ter legacy, then, can we leave to posterity, than the youth cf the present generation brought up under the most favorable circumstances that will develope in them the noblestand most praiseworthy attributes of mao ?

Affair* in North Georgia and Tcn- The following, fr*>m the R me Courier of the 20th, reveals a horrible state of affairs in Northern Georgia. The Editor says : In a recent trip through North Georgia, we met with a responsible gentleman of Ca toosa county, who represents a sad state of affairs aloug the Tennessee line, from Chat tanooga to Cleveland In the town of Har rison, Tennessee, and throughout that sec tio i of couutry, there i- a'vast number ol low down men who claim to he intensely loyal to the Fed- ral Government, and now ! make no concealment of the fact that they are now stealing from “liebs,” so-called to make good their losses during the war.— Most of these vagabonds wore very poor be fore the war, aid are ro w hoe mtng rich by stealing. The f -ilowir g w 11-anthetiticated incidents we give as they wete related to us : Not v<-ry long since two ci'izotis of Ca toosa county had three or f >ur h -rsr-s and mules stolen 'They foil-wed tlu- thieves and property to Harrison ; here they cubed upou two ct'iz nsof that town "lev hoi known bes-re the war to have a good repu tation, and relati and tin ir business. These men told them that v-ry likely they could find diestock, and r- quested them remain where thiy were until s-arch e old b* made. There Harris i> men returned in an hour or so with some twen'y-five men dressed in i Federal uniform, who infurmed these genii*- men that their sock wis in that town, and would nm in there, and the owners of it could have fifteen minutes to get cut of the place Before gctf'iig out of tpe town they were fired at s vernl times front around the o -rners and bouse windows. Nit many days since two genii m-n, by the uame of Trammel, went in the vicinity ofHariisoj to look after a'me land owned by one of them. A party of «these Tennes see desperadoes met them and told them to leave the State 'at once—that it was good laud they were inquiring about, and that nod—l reb should ever cultivate it, and that these persons would bein danger uuless they made baste to leave the State Not taking the most direct, r> ute home, these gentlemen were soon beaded off by three or lour men in blue, who commenced firing o > ihetn at a distgn e. Messrs. Trammel go' b- 1 io't gome trtes and returned the fire.— Tt is skirmishing continu'd for a half hour or more, when ho - h parties changed base f>r the rear, and nobody hurt. These loyal men com* over to Georgia at night in crowds . f from ten to thirty men, for the purpose of robbing an ! stealing— sometimes they commit their depredations in open day light A few days since they atm ped a negro within a mile and a half of K n o,,ld—cut his team—a horse and a mule—from his wagon, and male their es cape. They occa-ion tlly meet resistance. Oo last Tueslav night they a't mpted to rob a house at Obicamsuga Station, and the own er shot, and killed ono of a party of thne.-- Tbe other two made their escat e Tie e desperate men are defiant of all law, but as sert that Browulow will uphold them in stealing from rebs, enough to satisfy their losses during the war. Charleston. —The Courier saysimprove ments are being made in the process of re building Charleston. Meu are at work re moving the rubbish aod brick from the burnt d.strict, and in many portions of the citv we see thcbuildn g of stores and dwell ings. The land and property holders begin to compr bend the great want nf Charleston at the present day and are maktofir earm st efforts to fill up aacant spac< s with buildings. Eloquence Extraordinary.- The Mont gomery Mail says that one ot the poetical members ot the Alabama Legislature, in a de bate on the stay law, a few days since, was happily delivered of the annexed eh quent peroration : “Mr. Speaker : Is there a man, woman or child withiu the sound ot my voice, who is unwilling to save to our people the pittance of property left them? If such there be, sir, he sh uld go down to po terity, unwept, tin honored and unsung He is unfit to tread the soil of the free and ‘he brave. A man, sir, who would maliciously,at- din cool blool, thus oppress the people is not fit to live. He should b ■ kicked to death by a jickass, and- I’d like to do it ” There is a divine out West trying to persuade the girls to forego marriage. Ha might as well try to persuade ducks that they could find a substitute for water, or rose buds that there issniu-thiug better for their ■complexion than sunshine.
