Temperance Address.
Bartow, Ga., Aug. 9th, 1573.
Editors News and Farmer :
Gentlemen ■—We hi revviih enclose
you fa publication a copy of a Tem
perance Address, delivered before
Russell Johnson Lodge, by one of
its members, on the JOtli of July
ult. You will pleas-* give it space
in your columns and much oblige
Yours Respectfully,
Committee,
Brothers and Sisters: —Allow
me the pleasure of making a f vv re
marks on ibis occasion, b it in doing
s> I do not for a moment flatter my
self that 1 shill he able to instruct
any that are pres mt, or even give
any new ideas ou the subject; hut
my object is to give evi lence that I
am interested in the great cause
which I have espoused, and, though
young in years, and weak in intel
lect, lam willing to put my shoul
der to the wheel and help push foi
ward this mighty car of temperance,
which, if we do our duty, will yet
i'..11 on in triumyh over this land,
bearing in its train peace and happi
ness to the now miserable victims of
King Alchohol.
I (eel, that as a society, we are en
gaged in a work so grand, and holy
and g-'od that it would require the
ability of talent and experience to
present its claim in a way that
would be at once worthy of it aud
you. I am, however, profoundly
impressed with two facts, firat, th it
the well being of soci< ty as well as
of individuals, is entirely dependent
on the morality, that is the ba-is of
collei tiv or individual character.
When private or public character is
debased and degraded th -re is al
ways a proportionate amount of in
dividual or social unhappiness. On
the other hind, us society and indi
viduals are pure and upright ihey
are us fit! and happy. The Almighty
lias endowed us with facilities, mor
al and mental, by which we may el
evate ourselves to an indefinitely
high position of relative pei fiction
aud enjoyment ; and the m re th< se
powers of mind, It -art and body are
developed the more exquisit will be
our enjoyment, and th- greater nor
sphere of usefulness. The climax
of guilt, we think, is a wilful degra
dation of our endowments and fac
ulties. This cannot be more effec
tuady and readily accomplished than
by an indulgence in intoxicating
drinks as a beverage. We have
pledged ourselves before God and
each other to life long abstinence
from all that will intoxicate, and
Imve bound ours'-ves to battle against
Alcohol and his hos.s for all time to
come. By so doing we will not on
ly elevate ourselves and keep from
the evi s J this vice, hu we m iy be
come the instruments in saving oth
ers front the jaws of the destroyer.
The second o- next fact, with wuich
I am imp ess and, is, th it youth is the
time to lay the foundation for a use
ful high toned character. Let us,
my ydm tig friends, fully appreciate
lie privileges w r e enjoy. While hun
dreds of hays and girls like some of
us are exposed to the degrading in
fluences of this vice we are surroun
ded with opportunities of mental and
moral improvement. While thou
sands of the young all ov< r the land
are thrown under the influences of
evil example and are becoming the
victims, even, in childhood, of intem
perance. we are blessed with parents
ami teachers, an I temp ranee .-ocie
ti s, whose examples and influences
a! tend to make us hate the wrong
and love the right. Now, while are
young, now wnile hope is buo ant
and lo- e is gen ie, now while our
hen ts throb wildly with the p-os
p cts ol the future, and o ir aspira
tions are plumed for the airy heights
of jovs to come, now while all se ins
lov.-ly and bright withoiv, b- cause
all is hopeful and confiding woliin,
now while we are young, 1 repeat
again, now is the tint tc liythe
founckvion f r the future.
And to you, m v brothers, who ore
old t ad wiser, let me say tha l it is
to you we look for eic urngement.
Do not, I beg you, bee nm indiffer
ent to this gio ious cause. Succe-s
will depend much upon your exam
ple, and a strict adherence to th.-
principles and requi ern nts of our
order. When we look around and
see among us the wise and the good,
we who are younger and whos
characters arc yet in a measure to
bn formed, feel c-onstrui .ed to ex
claim, sur Iy we must be right, and
it begets a feeling ot se f importance
in us for i- not a m m kn >w n by the
cotnpa yho k eps ? We h ive a no
ble 'hi and of brotbe sand 'eel proud
of the a s >eiation.
And to you, ladies, ever give us
yoar encouragement l>j your pres
ence and your smi-' s. We ulw tys
f el moe hopeful of success in any
undertaking when the ladies ate en
gaged with ns. Come then, moth
ers, sisters, wives, daughters, sweet
hearts; come one, come all.
To you, my young friends, let me
say a word in conclusion. Let us
arouse to a full sense of our respon
sibility, let us resolve never to re
turn our swords to their scabbards
until “the last armed foe expires,”
until the last grog shop shall go
down, and the last drunkard reform-'
ed. Let us . never be satisfied ’till
victory shall be inscribed upon our
banners, and they proud'y planted,
shall he as gilded towers of success.
