An Argument against drink
ing-
DeKalb Superior Court is progressing at
Decatur, Judge Hill upon the Bench. We
understand that there are only seven in
jail for murder, and only about fourteen or
fifteen in all, who are confined oil criminal
charges. Rum presided at the perpetration
of all these offences.
The above paragraph from the At
lanta Republican, presents one of the
saddest pictures that can be imagined
of disorganized morals in a land of civ
ilization and Christianity. If it be in
deed true, that “Rum presided at the
perpetration of all these offences,” it
presents the strongest oi all reasons for
abolishing the rum-traffic. We are
willing to submit the case without ar
gument. Gentlemen oftlie Jury ! The
Grand Inquest of the Sute ! People of
Georgia ! What say you, “Guilty cr
Not Guilty ?” Upon your conscience
answer and vote.
Per Centra.
VVe copy below, from the Augusta
Constitutionalist, an argument for
diinking and sustaining the License
Law. The Cousfitutimialist is a lead
ing paper in the Stale and one of the
ablest, and though wo take opposite
sides on the L'quor Question, Col.
Gardner is one of our good ti iends. A s
a matter of courtesy we publish the ar
gument t> has presented and entreat
our friends and opponents to weigh ii
well. VVe think it puts the case ot the
opposition in its strongest view, and
have no doubt it will excite the admira
tion of those whom it does not convince.
Here then is the argument oi the Con
stitutionalist :
An Argument for Drinking — “Now
Inx you fellers, who's the best, citizen,
him that supports government or him ns
doesn’t? Why, him as does, in course.
VVe support guvernuieiit, every one ns
drinks supports guvernuieiit, flint is if lie
linker at a license house. Every blessed
drop of licker that be swollers that is taxed
to pay the salary of them nr officers, such
as Mayors and corporations, the Constables,
Presidents and Custom-house gentlemen.
’Spose we was to quit drink—why guver.i
rnent must fail; it couldn’t help it no liow.
That’s the very rezitii i drinks. J doi ‘i
like grog. 1 mortally hate it. it I fullered
my own inclination, I’d rather drink butt-r
----tnilk, or ginger pop or Dearborn’s sody
water. But 1 tickers for the good of my ;
country to set an example ot patriotism and
vircliuous self-denial to the rizun genera
tion.
Judge HlcCluie and Intemperance
Judge McClure, of Pennsylvania, in
a charge to the Giand Jury recently,
spoke of intemperance and crime in
the following emphatic manner:
The court lias been in session since
October Term, without intermission,
despatching the criminal business oi
the County.
I have kept a docket and tabic of
contents, cause, time, &c., in my own
way, collateral to and independent of
the usual records of the Court, and with
out wearying your patience with the
process I have gone through, I will
give you the results, which is that, had
it not been for the use and abuse of ar
dent spirits in Alleghany County,every
case on the October calendar would
have been disposed of in one week
(and the district Attorney confirms
this statement) with the utmost ease,
and the cases would have been of a
trifling nature. There would not have
been one case in the Oyer and i er
miner.
I.shall cease to prate any more to
Grand Juries about this omnipotent
parent of crime, alcohol. Isa century
of imbecile legislation have not sufficed
to convince reasonable men; if crime
and poverty before their faces has failed
to convince; if a ceaseless drain upon
theircharity, from destitution, caused
bv drink; if their increased taxes, it
men’s eyes and ear., will not convince;
ORGAN OF THE SONS OF TEMPERANCE AND STATE TEMPERANCE CONVENTION
if the evidence of our senses will not
enlight-n our understanding, in this
behalf, and cause in the community coi
responding acts, prompted by duty and
common sense, then, to talk upon this
theme longer here, is lime thrown away.
If society chooses to indulge in this
i costly luxury ot woe, and in the causes
that produce it, I have no more to say,
for society has the power to select its
own peculiar enjoyments, and indulge
itself therein. Its right to do so is more
! questionable.
Which is the Worst ?
A liquor seller in a heated discussion
about the Maine Law, exclaimed,—
“These Temperance men carry mat
; ters altogether too far. We never com
.pel men to buy or use liquor, but if
| they are fools enough to do it, it is their
look out, not ours.”
“Sir,” said a by-stander, “Do you
say a man is a fool who buys and drinks
i liquor to excess ?”
i Said the liquor dealer, “Yes, any
! man is a fool ;o do it, I don’t care who
• ! he is!”
“Well, sir,” replied the by-stander,
“I will not dispute you. But if the
man who drinks is fool enough to spend
his time and money in a way that is
ruining his property, character, health,
happiness, family, soul and body,—what
must he the character of the man who
will take advantage of his folly, be.
cause he makes money by it? If the
one is a fool, is not the other a knave ?”

Cargo of Ladies for California. —The
French Sonsonatte arrived at Valpariso
recently with a cargo of two hundred
: ladies for California. The young ladies
quite enlivened tile sreets of that city
! a few days, undone or two soft-hearted
citrangeros tried hard to induce some
of them to remain, but it was no go.
The ladies said that, having come so far,
they were determined to see tlu
elephant.
The New Ritual. —We learn from
the Kentucky New Eia, that the com
miUe of the National Division on the
New Ritual, alter another sitting, and
amending the work previously
compiled, resolved to issue tne new
Blue Book witi.out further delay. The
i work will he ready in a few days, and
j applications for it must be made to M.
W. S. F. A. Fickardt, Bethlehem, Pa.
| Hence it appears *hat no further op
■ j portuniiy is afforded for suggesting
, changes, or getting the question con
jsideied in N tional Division, before
. | introducing the ritual, as some have
desired.
Mrs. Fillmore. —The Tribune in
speak ill o of the decease of this estirna
| hie lady says, that Mrs. Fillmore was
not de.sigtied by nature to dazzle in a
i ball-room nor to win admiration from
(casual observers; nor did she find de

can have known her without being im

bined earnest piety with unaffected hu
militv. Her death leaves avoid in the

An extraordinary Man. —On Satur
! day last, an old revolutionary hero,
; nan.ed John Skin O’Brien, was admit
ted into the House of industry, in Moya
tnensing, with his wife and five of his
youngest children. Mr. O’Brien was
1 born in the Oneida tribe of Indians, in
j the State of Massachusetts. His motli
!er was a daughter of a chief of this
tribe, and his father a son of the Emer
! aid Isle. At the age of twelve years
he was sent to Europe to be educated as
| a physician, where he remained until
he was 22 years of age. He was in
Paris at the time General La Fayette
was prepaiingto embark for the A met .
icau Continent, to join in the revolution.
1 Young O’Brien then formed the res
olution to return to his native land and
1 engage in the struggle for liberty. He j
joined tiie eastern division of the army
under the immortal Washington, in the
capacity of surgeon’s mate under Dr.
Comstock. He was engaged in nearly
(all the battles of that eventful period,
during which lie received two wounds
i from balls in the chest, and also one
from a bayonet.
In the war of 1812, he again entered
the army, and commanded a company :
lof sharp shooters under Wilks, Pike;
and Brown. He will be one hundred
years oj ege on the 3 I of April, 1803,
and is me father of thirty-one children,
all of whern are said to be living. His
intellect is unimpaired. He stands over j
six feet in height, and is very athletic.
His face is rather handsome, and the
lower part thereof being wreathed in
the frosts of a hundred winters, gives
him the venerable appearance of a pa
triarch indeed. His y ngest, child,
a daughter, is only about eight months
old.
Honor and riches are two wheels
upon which the whole world is moved;
these are the two springs of our dis-:
content.
A Strong Position- — Gentlemen of
the Jury: There are four points in
this ch o. Di the first place, we con
tend ihut we never had the plaintiffs
horse; second, that wepii l him for the
use of the horse; third, he agreed to
let us Use tin horse for his keeping,
without nnv charge; and fourth, that
his horse is a jackass.
Reputation, honor, and preferment,
are gained, retained, and maintained
by humility, discretion, and sincerity,
with which, till a man be accommoda
ted and accomplished, he is not esteem
ed as a worthy member in a Common
wealth.

Resolved, That tve cordially respond to
(the sentim nts of regard, which she has

been deprived of an interesting and warm

with wounded hearts, yet becoming resig
