Who lias not beheld the abandoned ;
drunkard ‘again, when long iiidnlgejuv has |
consumed and extinguished all the vital on- j
orgies, and left him a worn, emaciated
wreck, the living mockery of physical man,— ,
the muscles relaxed and unstrung—tin*
hand palsied—the grasp feeble and tremu-,
l ous the eye dimmed of its fire and dives- 1
ted of its lustre—the bloated monster reel
jii.tr and staggering with unsteady gait as lie !
moves, and all the disgusting loathsomeness j
of death, as if anticipating tlm corruptions
of tho grave, stamped upon the living,:
bruatliing man. What a sight for human
eyes! How melancholy, and affecting a
spectacle of human degradation! With,
how touching and pathetic an eloquence
does it appeal to our commiseration! |
But, in the second place, reaching beyond j
the mere functions of the body, it invades |
the intellect, and ultimately darkens and de
stroys the undeslanding. To this sublime |
power of tho human mind, man owes his
superiority over all other animals. It is j
this which constitutes him a common cen
tre to which all things here below tend.
By it he is enabled to appreciate himself in j
die scale of beings—tho relations he sus-1
tains to the objects which surrounds him— j
to his fellow-men, and to his Maker, and to
discern the varied duties and obligations
which flow from theso relations. Guided
bv reason, ho has penetrated the abstruse
ncss of philosophy, unfolded the sciences,
and arts, and by their influence upon him as
a reacting cause and its consequence, he
comprehends the powers of the soul, sees
the circle of its operations enlarged, and its
comprehensive faculties increased and ex
panded.
This lofty power of the human mind
which gives man his enviable supremacy, is
destroyed by ardent spirits. It is at first
weakened and debilitated—inertness and
torpor pervades every mental exertion—the
bright light of intellect burns more and
more dimly, until one and another of the
subordinate faculties are quenched—the
memory fails in its retention—the fancy
folds up its once buoyant pinion,—the im
agination no longer soars the regions of
ideal existence in excursive but delightful
wandering,—one occasional and fleeting
ray of reason sometimes pierces the thick
ening gloom, and now the whole is extin
guished in a long and cheerless night of
hopeless idiotism.
Where now is the boasted dignity and
superiority of man? formed and fashioned
in tho image of his Maker, with the stamp of
immortality impressed upon him? Alas!
reason dethroned, his proud pre-eminence
is gone, never to return.
Under the maddening influence of the in
toxicating draught lie becomes the slave of
the most brutal passions, and perpetrates
the most shocking, revolting crimes.—
Steeled against the best and tenderest af
fections of the heart, and regardless of the
most endearing relations, the instances are
alas! not a few in which he has madly im
bued his hands in the life-blood of his own
household. The criminal annals of the
world have been stained and scarred on ma
ny a dismal page by the record of such in
human, heart-rending atrocities. Many of
the most distinguished judicial characters in
ourcouutry have borne their testimony to
the mournful fact, that the great proportion
of crimes investigated by Courts of Justice
have originated in the intemperate use of
spirits.
Nor is it limited and confined to the mo
ments of delirium and phrenzy that the
drunkard commits the act of blood and
darkness. The debasement of the moral
nature becomes permanent and lasting—the
will loses its energy—the conscience be
comes seared and deadened—sentiment is
extinguished—the affections perverted or
totally suppressed—the sense of obligation
and duty gone—veracity and integrity lost
—the drunkard, in this melancholy'abandon
ment, this total wreck of his moral nature,
may exclaim in that startling language which
Milton ascribes to the Prince of Evil, “Fare
well remorse; all good to me is lost; Evil
be thou my good.”
In this process of destruction to the
intellectual powers, and of depravity to the
moral affections, the piety of the soul is con
stantly and steadily waning. The light of
the mind shrouded in darkness, how can he,
who understands not the doctrines and
truths of revelation, who realizes not the |
existence of a Supreme and overruling Prov ;
idence, feel the fervid glow of piety ? Stu-1
pid and besotted, he heeds not the gentle
calls of mercy’ —the threatened vengeance of
an angry God cannot move or awaken him
—the sweet promises of the Gospel of pence 1
and salvation cannot win or allure him.—
The distinguishing gift of intellect, abused
and trampled, cannot be successfully ad
dressed—the heart and its affections, de
praved and corrupted, cannot feel—the
whole power of motives is lost upon such a
being. Ah! to the reflecting tnind how j
painful is it to see even the thoughtless and’
indifferent rushing sportively along through
life to that point where the boundary of time
is to be passed. But to behold the wretch
ed drunkard, in his last great extremity, stag
gering blindly over the confines of tho eter
nal world, how dismal, how cheerless a pros
pect !
Dark and gloomy as is this picture, ut
terly ruined and undone, as is the victim of
Intemperance himself, its calamities, unhap
pily’, stop not with him. Another chord of;
suffering is to ho struck, another tale of ag
ony and woe to be revealed. Fes! the bro
ken-hearted, discon*olate wife, and the neg
lected, deserted offspring claim the sympa
thetic tear. Go! Enter yon dreary abode,
end read in the pensive and subdued aspect,
the sad and stricken countenances of its
•unhappy inmates, a story of grief, an affec-j
ting history of sorrow. Amid that afflicted;
group, there is on/ whose young alfc tions j
ORGAN OF THE SONS OF TEMPERANCE AND STATE TEMPERANCE CONVENTION
had anchored and fastened upon him in the j
Sprifig-jjnu* of existence, with a hold
which nothing but tin* icy hand of Death
could unloose—and now stained, degraded
and dishonored as he is, the partner of his
bosom still clings with unabating devotion !
to the wreck of Life’s young companion, as j
covered with disgrace and infamy, ho goes I
mournfully down to the shadows of the i
grave. Such is the truthful, earnest affec
tion of woman’s heart. Such alasl too of- j
: ten, the shameful ingratitude of man! All! j
j Guilty man! that very affection which
; would cheer and sustain you amid the
storms of fate, and the bufletings of fortune
J will but sink you deeper in wretchedness
as you reflect upon yourself as .he willing
j author of tier sufferings. When tho awful
sentence of the la n was pronouncing upon 1
the inhuman Jloit, for the murder of his
wife in a paroxism of intoxication, and ullu-
I sion was made to the dying woman in the
last convulsive agonies, still folding the
! clinging babe to her palpitating bosom,
| with a maternal fondness nothing could
overcome, a shock passed over tho system
! of the doomed man, too heavy for eonceal
! ment—a sudden flash and rapid roll of the
I eye betrayed a living remorse, which even
drunkenness and crime had not power to
extinguish. And when again he was re
minded of lhe dreadtul retributions of Eter
nity, a shudder, thrilled through the frame
c f the hardened wretch; but nought beside
couid affect him.
i Our exchanges are full of jokes and
j items turning upon the Maine Liquor
! Law. We are getting tired of the sub
ject—;ts agitation we opine can do no
I good, nor can the law be carried into
I effect. It is doubtless well intended,
: but we know of no bettor way to in
j crease the vice of intemperance than
j legal prohibition will eifect. —Savannah
j Journal.
Pray, Mr. Journal, do the legal
prohibitions increase the number of dis
tinctive conflagrations in your City?
Is not this the truo inference to be
drawn of your notions ? And why not
tlie idea as sound in the one case as the
other ? Then, sir, repeal ail prohibi
tory enactments against arson, and li
cense the incendiaries which infest
your thriving City, at five dollars each,
and let us see the effects.
Glorious News from Cass!

Cassville, Aug. 3d, 1852.
Uncle Ben : —-jTho above resolutions
were unanimously adopted by a large
town meeting here last night. They
were sustained in patriotic and soul
moving speeches from Judge A. R.
Wright, Col. James Milner and Col.
Warren Akin. Indeed, sir, we had a
glorious time of it—and my word for
it, the ball is in motion in Cherokee. I
was told when 1 returned from the Con
vention, that it would be best not to
mention what had been done, as it
would surely injure my prospects, as
well as tho cause of temperance. Bui
I consulted a few temperance men who
were not of the tender-footed sort, and
we resolved to call a town meeting and
open the subject. We had our first
meeting a month ago, and many turned
out. There was some flinching at first,
but we had passed tile line, nnd were
resolved to “take no step backwards ” 1
Above you have the result of our sec j
ond meeting—can you doubt the final
result, when you see the names of such
men as Wright, Milner and Akin
( among our leaders ? We will not tire
—we will agitate, until the doggeries
and the wholesale houses are extermi
nated.
We organized a society, with the fol
lowing officers: —Dr. James B. Under
wood, President; Dr. R. 11. Patton,’
Wm. Latimer, John W. Burke, John!
A. Erwin, and Samuel Churn, Vies j
Presidents; M. A. Higgs, Secretary.
We hold monthly meetings. More

1 reatment of Persons Struck tiy
Lightning. —in a communication to the
Portland Transcript, Dr. Davis of that
city says :
The popular impression in relation
to the application ot cold water to per
sons struck by lightning is a decided er
ror. The Doctor observes, “The
whole treatment necessary to counter
act the injurious effects of lightning may
be comprised in a few words. Expose
the hod}’ to a moderate warmth so as
lo prevent the less of animal heat uiid
inflate the lungs so as to imitate natural
respiration as nearly as possible, when
the person breaths wi'h difficulty or’
when he has ceased altogether by lus
own efforts. The sprinkling of cold
water over the lace, in order to excite
respiration by n ilex action may also!
be tried. Etmlier than this it has no
legitimate use.

always insisting on escorting her home,
led her around the two sides of the
square. Out as his pa--sion decreased,
