Strange delusion 1 Inexplicable blindness to the facts of history and the occurrences of every day . Without referring to books* memory, unassisted, sup plies us with a catalogue of well-known riatne j . the bare mention of which refute-, the plea we have quoted. Alexander the Great, one of the brightest spirits of antiquity, one of the three greatest generals of the world, whose tutor was Aristotle, who slept with the poems of Homer under his pillow, conquered the world, and died of a drunken debauch in the thirty-thire year of his age she fall of the Roman Empire wasprecu^^gd| Brbfftrb to (Tfinprranrf, literature, (General |ntelligenee, anb the Jfattsl llelus. o ■— -* bv tho drunkenm- of Us emperors; human na ; turo wav eternally dishonored by tho enormities j committed by them in drunken fury. 01 t)ie ton sovereign.- who have reicned in Run sia since the accession of I’etor the Great, all hut four Here beastly drunkards. <)l the Empress Elizabeth, it is h ritten, “she was completely hruti tieil hy strong liquors: from day to day she was al most alway s in a state of bacehir eestaev; she eouM not hear to be dressed in the moriiititr, her wnmnn loosely attached to her some robes, which a few cuts iof the scissors disengaged in the evening.” And ! the passage gives an idea of the general condition of j the Russian court for more than seventy years The present king of Prussia, whom Neibuhr in : strueted and praised, thanking (iod on his knees for | giving Prussia so wise and noble a prince, is n noto rious drunkard, the contempt of his subjects, the scoff of Europe. The tale king of the Sandwich Islands, upon whom a corps of missionaries exhausted their eloquence am! skill, was a drunken caricalure of the kingly ! office to the lasi Tho city of Washington, where the flit, of the j nation is supposed to congregate, is-the mostdrunk |on town in the Union. Champagne is one of the { great powers of the country, a thing relied upon to ! corrupt the very men who are sent to Washington I i under the impression that they arc our wisest and j ■ our best. Hannegan, a .Senator of the United States, was !an abandoned drunkard, and w hen sent abroad as plenipotentiary, disgraced the country hy the most continuous and outrageous drunken debauchery . 1 Some of the most important ennetnients ever passed by A'ongress— enactments involving the yvet i fare of future empires, have been passed while the floor of the House was strewed w ith honorable and • intoxicated members. The Tea-room of this city, established for the con-! . venience, not of (he city’s vagabonds, but of the j city’s “fathers” and head men, was, for many a dis- j i graceful years, a scone of drunkenness. It was when maddened by drink, that l)r. Gra ham committed murder. Hartley Coleridge, a man abounding in amiable j qualities, who inherited much of his father’s genius,! with all his father’- infirmity of purpose; could never master hi propensity to drink. He was a* scholar, a gentleman, a poet- and a drunkard. Edgar Poe—but why speak of him * The story of his miserable end i- more familiar to the people even than the melancholy refrain of the “Raven.” Charles Lamb, tho gentle Charles, the kind, the ’ fender, the beloved, could sacrifice so much for his ister full could not help being eani. J ;,nme nml .put to bed in insensible drunkenness. Douglas Jerrold is a devotee of gin. For many i years, it is said, he has been impairing hi ‘ fine pow ers hy habitual exeess in drink. ! Byron, Burns, dteele, Hone, and a host of other; names, eminent or illustrious, might he added to the ‘ t list of distinguished drunkards, /turns, wearecon i ficlent, had not died in the prime of life, a defeated,! heart-broken man, his destiny all unaccomplished, if he had not been addicted to convivial drinking. And who knows for how much of Byron's reckless verse, the world should curse the gin-bottle? In our colleges, is not the secret demijohn one of j the perpetual anxieties of the presiding professor! ’ and parent? At out fashionable parties, is champagne | i —one of the vilest of drinks—moderately consumed? Do not our grand banquets generally degenerate into , occasions of disgusting excess? Are the sons of leading citizens Hie most temperate of our youth? Is it poor women who buy brandy drops by Hie pound? Talk no more of shutting up only the hut grog geries All groggeries are low, and all grog is per nicious, whether ipped by gentlemen, sucked bv ’ ladies, or swilled by the “dregs of the people.” A fl RE FOR IMI'NkE.WENv I’he New V ork Spirit ol the Times has been fur- i wished, liy a Wa-hington correspondent, with a copy of n letter, received by a member of Oongres- from an ex-editor out West, who thu- humorously unr- 1 rate- the manner in which he. became cured of drunkenness. “Until this winter, l could take a bowl or two of whisky-punch and go to bed, hot that resource ha gone from me now IVrhap- if I toll you how f lost it, you will think I-am trying to humbug von; but, sir.

Ur. ('heever, in the Independent, says: “'Tho J greatest glory of this law is the very characteristic of self-denial and and self-restraint, voluntary, spoil ta neons, for the sake of others. It is self-denying love, passing into the sacredness and permanence of statute; imbuing first the community, and thence the legislation hy which the community eeuros it self in iis own self-denying resolution. It is Paul's principle triumphant, for the first time iu any legis lation under heaven; triumphant now, because such legislation is that of Christian people governing themselves from conscience towards God, and not that of a despotic government, laying its yoke, upou the people at its own caprice. It is a phenomenon that may well arrest the attention of the world. It is such a demonstration of the immeasurable power of Christian legislation for the good of the people, and such an application of that power, such a mani fest awakening of the people to a sense of the just object for which government is instituted, and laws ought to he enacted, such a taking of the power of legislation hy the people into their own bunds, and such a demonstration of the safety of letting the people do their own legislation, not for war, con quest, revenue, party, dominion, political or territo rial aggrandizement, or the privileges of orders, or hierarchies, or monopolies, hut in behalf of the poor and the needy, and for their protection from the luxuries, the covetous, and the rich, that the report of it will do not a little to shsiko. the thrones of tyranny, and will tie a blow tx> governmental selfish ness, almost the world over.” THE DRUNKARD'S IIYINC CHILI). ‘‘Kate sat near a scanty pallet, on which was ex tended (lie suffering little Robin, her bright, beauti ful hoy, reduced to skin and hone. His large mys terious eyes were turned upwards, watching the Hitting of the leaves and fragments of sunshine, tliat peeped through the thick foliage of the inulticaulis. An infant.aboul a month old--meagre, weary of its ex istence and petulant with pain and lassitude, lay on her bosom, and she in vain trying to charm it to repose. “Mamma,” said Robin, reaching out his waxen hand, “take me to your bosom.” “Yes, love, as soon as Maria is still I” “Mamma, if God had not sent us that little cross baby, you could love and nurse me, as you did when I was sick in Cincinnati. My throat is hot, mamma. I wish I had a drink in a tumbler, glass tumbler, mamma, and I could look through it.” “Dear, you shall have a tumbler,” cried Kate, tier lips quivering with emotion and a wild tire in her eyes. “Yes, mamma, one cold drink in a tumbler and your little Robin will tiy up, /<, there where that little bird sits.

THE PROBLEM SOLVER IA MAI.IE. Gov. Morrill writing to F. Delavau -ay : The great problem, can rum filing and intemperance flowing therefrom, be controlled by prohibitive leg islation, and suitable penal enact merits* 1 i- solved by the result in this State. The Law , now in the hands of its friends, is doing the work in a most -ati‘•fac tory manner. Prosecutions have, not multiplied since our most stringent law took effort, on the first, day of May, but on the contrary, there ha~ been a very great falling off in that respect Obstinate violators of the law, while only a penalty of dollars awaited them, continued the traffic; but opening the House of/.'orrection for their discipline (where they 1 have f>eeti w ont to send the poor inebriate; with very ’ few exceptions, they quietly and wholly abandon the business.

With these solemn convictions weighing upon out minds, we participated in (h* councils and acqui e.seed in the action of the late Marietta I’(invention. The proceedings ot that body Inn been greatly de plored and highly censured m some quarters. Whether this regret and tin’s condemnation be the offspring of enlightened pntrioiLuii or of party predi lections, is not for us to determine. Os one. thing;! we are sure The action of that < Wive.nlion was ta ken in the fear ol God, and in full view sat’ a futug,* retribution. Having; taken a minute au'v.cy of all the points in the field, the Convention did nut see how they could, innocently, act otheiw'loe than as they did. Are wt asked why we <lid not vole 5Jr Overfly out of the field? AVe answer: That Conee/i lion claimed no jurisdiction in the premises, not be j ing the one which first made the nomination. Why, j then, ilid they adopt him as their candidate? For several reasons: They had no candidate, and they] desired to have otic. Air Overby was already on j the field, and ns worthy u man as any to he found on the field or off of it; and though he hail been nominated bv the jirafi ihifioii party, iu Convention, on February last, yet tin- Marietta Convention were willing to, ay they did, shoulder the platform of that Atlanta Convention, and they could perceive no man ly reason why they should reject a candidate who! could so faithfully represent their views and their in terests. Therefore, they cordially opened their arms to him, without once‘enquiring what direction the itjinilH would take in the event <M’ .success. Though they claimed no right to eominmd the candidate of another party to retire, yet they did claim the right to adopt that candidate if they chose; they did claim , the right, to say to prohibit onist . arc pleased with j your candidate., we w ill take him Ui tw our own; we | will vote for him in October. It may be proper to add, llmi Mr. ••HcrbyV friends did not bring hi name before the < ‘oviveiatioii. His name wn- sprung upon tin meeting I#} fftturse who ] had resolved, if po--ible, to riiaki the t .uosixj/ron or | der him to abandon the field The issue hud to fret met, and four-fifths of the body voted lor Mr. Over- j by to n until, on the field lift I lie end Of'tbe race. Mr Overby bad been nominated several months, before any other candidate us - brought out After; awhile, two other candidal* -, t.ov. -Johnson and j Judge Andrews, were nomirnuod by their respective parties; and although no overture*, from an author i/.cd source, were made to the prohibition party wifi* a view to Imrmoni/.i conflicting interests, yet the prohibitionists were met out of door-, with the in quiry, “Why does not Mr. Overby come down? 1 You have put out your candidate at the wrong time. Too much excitement for prohibition now. You j may ns well give it over. It i- doomed to be ** fail ure.” To all this class of questions we have been in the | habit of making the. following reply “When wet took tin; first step in this movement, our political | sky was clear, and there were in Georgia no import- j ant issues to agitate the minds of our people. It; was believed that nearly all ol the old party issues; had ripened into maturity and fallen into decay, to i be no more remembered. I nder this auspicious 1 state of things, it was confidently hoped that the j voters of Georgia would have an opportunity of| voting upon this question, untrammelled by other, exciting issues. Unfortunately, however, it has 1 j turned out otherwise.

Due our brothers, who knur that it was in the field, very who professed to feel anxious about its fate, nets and tlieless, conjured up this tempest which now rrl or *- around it so fiercely. And what is more strtfdK've j than all, they tell us that they knew the storm its were raising would ruin both us and the cause arent advocate, and yet they would persist Not trr, upon our frunff*, have placed this interest in peril, only temperance, if prohibition perish in this storm, yet l.ord be judge between us ami you vie AVe protest that there was no necessity formak n conflict between prohibition and certain other litieal interests, in connection with the election. Nor have we heard one scnsihlo argunn to prove that such necessity did exist. From all t lights before us, wo arc thoroughly convinced tl l *'° the masses of Georgia greatly desired that the fi( ,cn should lie left open without tho nomination o|* K ° third candidate, in order that the people might v<: ’ left free to cast their vote lor Overby and prohir 1 ’ lion. And now, if prohibition he defeated, whe ,0 lies tin’ onus of responsibility? Let those answ Vl who force a third candidate upon the people; and I l ’* those who failed to represent the k-nntrn irit/ux the. people remeinbei it - there w ill hi’ a day of fen 40 ful retribution n ‘ AVe repeat, there was no necessity for a third eai W) delate. AVe will venture to say there was no patr° ’ otic object to lie accomplished in the nomination r® | Judge Andrews, which could not lie. accomplish!? without it If the party had rallied upon the (,’or grcssiotml election, they could thereby have made * test of their strength as fully as now, and more s<r because they have now made a wanton eontlicl witF ’ prohibitionists, who already had their candidate lie t fore Hie people more than six months before hand j This conflict will necessarily prevent a (Atll etghibi i lion of the strength of both parties in the Gofer nor’s election There would have been no such cm ; barruHsmmit had they restricted their efforts to the j (Vingrcssional ticket. And now we appeal to all prohibitionists who may have attached theinselve , to the Native American party -we say to them, by ! right of precedence we claim the Governor’s dec I tion, as our appropriate medium for showing the strength of the prohibition ctutse in Georgia. VYi claim vour vote upou this ground, especially, as a matter of right. We claim it, also, on the score of liberality AVe bog you so remember, that although the Native American party should fail to elect their j Governor, yet they need suffer no embarrassing de- . feat They may Inti in their Governor, and yet elect every Uongrosstnnn, and thereby demonstrate that they are the dominant party in Georgia. It seem: to us tliat the “Natives” want every thing—there i no spirit of compromise. It is painful to know it, and it will he hard toforgef.it. AVe propose to show our strength on Mr. Overby, if they will permit us to do it They ‘■ay we cannot do ! this, and therefore we are indiscreet in making the - ?i/tempt. ‘Ye say to them you cannot rally your ] strength on Judge Andrews, although ho is worthy, j atid Hwre&rr it is indiscreet in you to make the : effort. Moreover, w jiropo'-o to turn the 2,200 foreign grogshop lieepwv y? Georgia out of office, and ask them to help ti, TJi*>yfeply, “We have no time for that now we are trying to turn foreigmn out of office.” And when we call upon the Democratic | party for aid, they excuse themselves upon the ground, that they have work enough to do in keep ing these foreigners in office. Against all this we plead as an offset, that we are trying to redeem ti thousand drunkards from a drunkard’s grave and a drunkard’s hell Native Americans! Democrats! patriotic wen of all parties, and ehristians of all teets, will you help us? In the fear of God decide which is the best cause, and coin', to it “terrible as an army with banners.” But there are still other reasons why the Marietta Convention resolved to auatain Mr. Overby. They regarded him a/t the representative of the only great interest now before the people of Georgia. Other interests there are which are nbnuluMy of conaidera* 1 hie value, but which fom/zaratu'elydwindlolntoutter \ insignificance; so much so, that all the political (jvils, merely, now complained of in Georgia, might be thrown in for good measure, in estimating the iniurilxffs Os the retail liquor traffic.

How could thav act otherwise as peirioM j as ehristians? Because aome who admired the j nobleness of the prohibition candidate, and acknowl j edged the justice of his cause, preferred to deaetf both, loving, as they do, the galling chain of party vasalare. did it, therefore, become our dntv.* **- . every oenrn or cedar, every s < < . ...
