A bailiff’ had just confined a prisoner in jail,
to await his trial for forging a Bankbill—Being
asked, by an acquaintance, what lie thought would
be the result of the trial—He replied—“Well, I’ll
tell you presarly—The Fcliciter will have to send
for the Vashiier of the Bank—an ef so be the Cash-

But ef tii" Felicitcr sends for the Cashiter, and
the CadiUer re tends, he’ll he condemned, without

This must have been a twin brother of the officer
who went to make a levy, which he executed with
the following legal solemnities—Laying his execu

The meeting was called to order b y the hon.
Lewis Cohdict, member of Congress from the
Intemperance entailed upon men, he regarded it
•ess in its effects on their health and estate than on
their moral and intellectual character; because all
vice was essentially dreadful as it affected the char
acter and morals of an immortal being, and this
sank its victim in the sight both of God and man
below the grade of moral to that of brutal beings.
He did not spe*ak, he said, as the advocate of any
particular society or lorm of pledge, but as far as

which he would 'embody in the following general

peranee reformation, growing out of the awful cri-
fiis to which we had arrived; of the smiles of Heav
en upon it, and the extensive bold it had and ought
to have upon the sympathies off all who love their
country and their race. He powerfully advocated
the pledge to entire subsistence, alluding, in a most
heart-thniling manner to those who once pledged
-‘their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor,”
tint they would be free. He pourtraved Urn bles
sed influence which the Conyress of these United
'States would have in coming up in a body to the
great work.of resistance to that debasing tyranny
b) which vve had been yielding arid handing down
f!:e influence offtheir opinions and example through
the great-body of tiieir constituents to the remotest
border of our happy republic; and in conclusion,
came down with a rare tenderness and power up

alone hindering the work of reform, and entering
themselves into the paiii of ruin.

Air. W. said, that the Temperance reformation
was as practicable as any other—once begun, it
must triumph; that the state oft he world was more

authoritative command, ami surely ibis was enforc

the Secretary of the Navy for their efforts to re
deem our national forces from the debasing influ

was fast approaching when what now might seem
a small effort, would place the world in the brillian
