Ff: i.ow-t 'i i'i/.i:\s: —The object of o ir
comeiiuon this evemn «>' is one ot‘ momen
tous interest. Tii cause of temperance,
embracing the wind* l.omni family in its
b< nevolent purpose, urn! aiming a* univer
sal moral reformation, presents claims
upon every man’s support, upon every
in ’> . illi.encc, which should not be dis
regarded. In the temperance societies
v. i nave been, and arc now being or
ganized throughout America we recognise
i • • > ;s which are to light us to indi
vidual and national prosperity uad happi
ness —the soldiery which will successful
ly defend our c.vd and religious liberties
against the most powerful and insidious
enemy. The reformation commenced by
these societies should he hailed as one of
the grandest movcmei ts of the world.
For tw o centuries and a half the demon
intemperance has waged a war of exter
mination, misery and death over half tin
world, and although at first the ravages
of tins fell destroyer were scarcely seen or
felt, lie lias continued to march insidious
ly onward in his bloody career, achieving
victory after victory until the earth begins
to groan and tremble beneath his unhal
lowed tread. Two hundred years ago,
he who should have lifted his voice t.i the
thoughtless multitude, and warned them
that the small stream of spirituous liquors
which had then hut just commenced its
course of destruction and misery, would
ere this have swelled into a furious inigbtv
flood, and swept millions of their fellow
men into untimely, ignominious graves,
would have been mocked a* a false proph
et, a madman. But that which would
the a have seemed an idle, foolish fable,
lias proved u solemn, a most awful real
ity* t
Fellow-citizens—who can count the
sorrows, wretchedness and ruin, which
have followed in train this untiring,
unsatiated demon of blood. If we had
not teen the dread consequences of in
temperance —if we had not become famil
iar with scenes of dissipation and drunk
enness, how would the blood chill in our
veins at a recital of its melancholy its de
plorable ravages? But because this evil
is now a common one, shall we In come
insensible to its true deformity and loatli
soinucss? Let the ravages of tiiis fatal
eneinv he committed in our community
by the hands of midnight robbers and as
sassins,would we sleep over their atrocious
crimes? Would we wink at their w icked
ness, calling it by a thousand softening,
pall itive terms?
Were a most terrible fierce wild beast
turned loose in our streets to destroy and
devour our citizens, would we sit still in
perfect ease ami security, without an effort
to slay the monster, or awaken our
friends to a sense of their danger?
Had the fatal Cholera of Egypt taken
up its march of deatii among us, sweeping
by multitudes our fellow-citizens on eve
ry side, would not a single exertion be
made to impede its progress and convey
ourselves and friends beyond its fatal
gr isp? Fellow-citizens we would none
of these. Ami shall we then suffer intem
perance, the most prolific source, the very
fountain head of robbery and of murder;
the g** aerator of almost every vice; a mon
ster more terrible than the fiercest wild
be isi—a pi .gue more dreadful than a
thousand Choleras, and beneath whose
withering touch the fairest, sweetest flow
ers of nature perish! shall we suffer tins j
foul demon to rove abroad, unheeded, I
unresisted, undestroyed.
The time has been, fellow-citizens, J
when an evil of this magnitude, might i
have been countenanced, but that tune
his departed, as the darkness before
the rising sun, it has been driven back, &
u brighter, a better day has beamed upon
our happy laud The very convention of j
a temperance society on this spot, but n I
few years ago the dwelling place of sava- [
ges and wild beasts, proclaims loudly, that j
the spirit of benevolence is at work, that
a glorious reformation is at hand.—And !
now, fellow-citizens we call upon you to !
unite, with us in tins glorious, this mag- j
inficv.it undertaking. The work is coni- j
rneaced, but it must have friends, or it I
cannot advance. But do you doubt the !
utib'v of our undertaking? Do you quqg- 1
tiou the necessity, of a reformation? Con
template for a moment the lucts which
startle you at every corner, that are blown
on every breeze. The actual cost of spir
ituous liquors consumed within the United
States annually is tlurty-five millions of
dollars; yes, thirty-five millions of dollars
every year wasted, absolutely squan
dered in drunkenness and rioting
and that too while thousands of unfortu
nate widows and orphans, made so by the
use of this fatal poison, suffer and die for
wa it of the common sustenance of life.
Bm the cost of this pernicious drink, when
compared with its fatal effects m other
shapes, i« hut a drop to the unfathomable
ocean. From 'he most accurate calcula
tions it appears that there are regularlv in
our country, about four hundred and eigh
ty thousand drunk ir.h—an nrmv of de
graded, wretch* and, miserable beings, whose
very existence is a curse. Os this num
ber tlmtv thousn: (I aniiuailv descend into

arc consigned to death, and to a ft-urlm
eternity. Even uow while we speak
some unhappy, unfortunate slave of ifie
poisonous cop is taking his last long look,
upon the last the only gleam ot hope
which shall ever shine for him. In a
word it is an undeniable fact that tluce
fourlhsnf all the poverty, wretchedness, Jk
crime in our country, result irom the use
of intoxicating liquors. Add to these the
destruction of intellect—the prostration of
hopes, desires, affections, friendships,
i love, happiness, and ail the sweet and so
! cial enjoyments of l.fe, springing from
this bitter fountain, and then tell us, is
I there nothing to do, are we contending »-
gumst an imaginary evil? Have we not
commenced a splendid system of reform,
a most stupendous work of benevolence,
and will you not unite w tilt us in the great
the magnificent undertaking/
But some tell us they would join tin
temperance society, if in doing so, they
would not surrender their privileges. If
the use of ardent spirits is so great uu in
dividual and national curse, that it would
long since have been entirely abandoned
did not the love of it operate more strong
ly on the human mind than the most pow
erful truth, how can it he possible for a
good man to esteem the participation in
• ins great evil n privilege. How can a
freeman object to signing that constitu
tion winch only declares him independ
ent of the most despotic tyrant on earth.
But if we examine the rules of these so
cieties we find, that although we give a
pledge of abstinence from the use of spir
ituous liquors, vve are at perfect liberty to
withdraw this pledge whenever we please.
He are not compelled to continue our
names on the list of the temperate longer
than is agreeable, but can have them era
sed at any time.—A more perfectly free
and discretionary obligation cannot he
conceived.—You may from conscientious
motives, unite with the temperance socic ty
to-dav, and if at any future period you
should be disposed to withdraw, satisfy
your ow n mind of the correctness of the
course, and you are at perfect liberty to
do so. Temperance Societies exercise
no coercive authority, impose no penalties
inflict no punishments, administer no cen
sure, denounce no party —hut sienjdy in
vite alEmcn, for their ow n good, for the
welfare of the community in w hich they
1 ve, and for the benefit of future genera
tions, to abstain from the use of a poison
ous, ruinous liquid, and to declare their
determination to do so. W hat can be
more free. W hat better suited to our re
publican feelings and opinions. What
more worthy our warmest approbation,
our liveliest support.
There are others who believe it the
duty of every man to forsake the use of
this intoxicating drink—but who think
they should do's*) without giving a pledge
of abstinence. To this course vve have
no objection—and if every man will for
sake it, throw the cup from Ins lips and
touch it no more, then vve shall he pre
pared to dissolve our temperance associ
ations. But let us ask you gentlemen,how
many in all your circle of acquaintance,
how many in all our country, have adop
ted this course? Since the first or
ganization of temperance societies m A
mcrica, more than 400,000, of our fellow
citizens have given the pledge required bv
these societies; of this number more than
200,000 were consumers of the article, &
3,000 were drunkards! All these have
ceased to swallow the liquid fire, and are
now using their influence for the advance
ment ot the great scheme of benevolence
and humanity w hich has rescued them
from the destruction of this great enemy.
But where can you point us to the single
hundred men, I might almost challenge
you to point, out the single individual who
lias given up the fatal practice without
joining a temperance society. Is not this
strong evidence to the point, that your
system has to be reduced to practice. Yes
gentlemen, vve are compelled to doubt
the charity of that man who drives the
shivering, hungry beggar from bis door,
with “be ye warmed «5c filled.”
To the drunkard vve can only say, vou
are already fearfully convinced of all that
vve could desire to impress on your mind.
| Some who were almost gone in drunken
j ness have escaped from the fearful ruin
j w Inch awaited them but just abend. Take
i courage from their success, and if there
| he a single hope of your escape from the
I deep vortex of degradation into vv liicli
J you have so deliberately and yet so mad
i Iv precipitated yourself, for your life lay
j hold on that hope and sink no deeper in
i to infamy and shame.
But fellow-citizens there is another
j eltiss among you, whom vve would most
| earnestly strive to rescue from this be
witching, fatal snare. I mean the tem
perate drinkers. They too, arc loud in
their denunciations of the drunkard.
None look upon him with an eve of keen
er scorn and derision. None flee his
presence sooner, or are sooner disgusted
at his brutality, and yet they see not, nor
feel the dangers which hang thick and
heavily around themselves. They hear
not the how ling storm which is even now
gathering around their heads, in fiercest
; blackness—and which if not averted, will
I soon shipwreck all their hopes. Os all
j men in this great day of light and truth,
I none appear so mail, so furiously insane.
| Talk to the temp ratedtinker on other
| -objects lie reasons like a philosopher.
But whatever may he his skill in other
matters, let this subject be brought liefor*
j him, and in a moment In* seems t>* have
lor cot i< ii that lie ever had a reason. But
| m* will leave vour numerous apologies fur
drinki or lo a fair trial in your own hands.
, Os one fa>t we are certain, these are the
j met! wlio k**< pin existence the dram shop,

j t ,e C'.lilp.iov from wl-.-e racks *le great
j army of drunkards in our country, is eve
iry day recruited. Yes this is the society
j winch sends forth every year thirty tlmu
| .-and Men to supply the places ot tinny
' tiioiisttud fallen drunkards. Y’e» temper
ate drinkers, by whatever course of rea
soning you may arrive at the conclusion
that it is no harm to drink moderately;
however xure you may he that no evil can
beful you, Indore to-morrows sun has set,
more than eighty men from your ranks
will have fallen into tile ranks of that
great army or drunkards, which you now
look upon as so great a nuisance to our
country. And what security have you,
that you will not be oueot the thirty thou
sand moderate drinkers, who shall launch
forth upon the great ocean of drunken
ness, In-fore the Ist of April ’33? I an
swer you have none. I care not what
else you may lie, if you are now u habitu
al temperate drinker, and intend to rc
iriuiii so; you have no security that you
will not soon enlist in that loathsome,
miserable, degraded host. Temperate
drinker beware!—No man ever became a
! drunkard at the first step. It is by
j and almost ,imperceptible degrees that
; men lose their self control. It requires
j time to harden the heart, to do away
| shame, to blunt the moral principles—to
| dethrone the reason. And no matter
vvliat may he your original materials,
however strong your mind, however vir
tuous your heart, however benevolent
your nature, the habitual use of ardent
spirits will strip you of all these graces, &
convert you into a fiend of grossest crime
and debauchery. Need 1 point you to
i further proof? Go to the wretched hovel,
where dwell the broken hearted, sorrow
worn widow and her beggard helpless or
j phans. Ask vvliat has been the cause of
all this poverty and misery! The bus*
' hand of that widowed mother, the father
! of those helpless little sufferers, was once
j a temperate drinker.
Follow the young man of vvtaltb, and
i talents, and influence, who lias just begun
| to climb tlie steep of honor and of fame,
| the pride and joy oi his affectionate par
i ents, the hope of Ins country —beloved by
I all vv ho know him. See him again in the
dram shop and among drunkards., ilis
property wasted, Ins talents hid, his influ
ence & his honor gone, and himself lev
elled to the lowest rank, and ask the cause
of this sudden, this unexpected fall.—“l
i was once a temperate drinker!”—Visit the
poor houses & prisons ot our country-ask
the wretched inmates how came the} here,
and they will tell u tale of once moderate
drinking. Go, in imagination, to the
dark regions of etefii-,1 night, where the
worm dieth not, arid the fire is not quen
ched, and ask the despairing, hopeless in
mates of that vast region what has been
the most prolific cause of all this eternal
misery, and oh vv liat a story of once tem
perate drinking wall be* howled tino all the
dreary cells of that intolerable cavern!
These are no imaginary pictures. And
is it true that there can he a single tem
perate drinker, who m view of all these
facts w ill yet continue to sip the poison
ous bowl. Surely it is a strange infatua
tion that will lead men with their eyes o
pen into such destruction.
One word to the venders of ardent spir
its Is it true that ali the misery and
wretchedness and min which vve have
been contemplating, is produced by an ar
ticle which you are every day dealing out
to your fellow-men. Is it true that the e
vil of intemperance is one winch threat
ens destruction to the very liberty and
happiness ot our country. And can you
yet persist in that calling w hich makes
you an active accessary in this great work
of destruction? It is evident that the tide
of intemperance is sweeping away health j
fortune, happiness, reason, conscience,
heaven!—and will you yet continue to feed
this raging tide. W ill you still pour into
this swelling ocean by half pints gallons
vA barrels the liquid lire. \Ye entreat you
pause for a moment. Consider that you
are taking bread from the hungry starv
ing orphan, that you are adding another,
and yet another pang to the distressed
heart of the sorrowing, weeping mother;
that you are conferring no benefit upon
mankind, but on the contrary are directly
preparing your fellow men for acts of the
deepest debauchery and crime—that you
are furnishing him with the surest means
of his own destruction here, and hiseter
na 1 misery hereafter—that you are un
dermining the very pillars of our govern
ment. Consider these things and letyour
conscience determine whether he w ho aids
his fellow until in tins wicked, bloody
work shall he held guiltless.
Fellow-citizens, generally, vve again in
vite you to unite with us in this glorious
work. If vve asked you to surrender your
principles, your happiness, yea r health,
your property, or any of the sweet ifc ten
der symyatlia-s of life, then you would
have cause to look upon us as your ene
mies. Then you might frown upon our
efforts as unlawful and base. But no
such outrages as these mark our course.
He ask you to drop from vour lips the
cup of poison. We entreat you to pre
serve uucontauiinated i lie. principles
which have been implanted in your bos
oms by the Creator. H e caution you to
discountenance the disturber ofyour hap
piness the corrupter of all the social en
joyments of life. We warn you totlee the
grasp ot an enemy who pdfers vour prop
erty, destroys your health, dethrones your
reason, locks up the avenues thro w hich
genuine pietv may la* coiumuiiicated to
tin* sonl, and plunges its victims into
shame and infamy in tin- world, and into
en raal dt spair in the world of spirits.

ot that sacred pledge should rejoice in

the overthrow ot another. Limitless as

The Post Office Koiuieuy.—Cm Mon
i day morning the person charged wiih
| purloining a letter from the Post Oflice
j containing S7OO in Bank hills, was ar
raigned before the U. S. District Court
Judge Davis, presiding. The District
Attorney Air. Dunlah appeared on the
part oftlie complainant, Mr. Greene, post
A1 aster. The prisoner, in the first in
stance, plead not guilty. The complaint
W as then read stating the facts that vi out
prove, substantially, as follows. Air.
Bild, merchant oi tiiis city deposited in
the Post office a letter for Providence,
continuing one hank hill of SSOO and 2
of SIOO each, and paid the postage. It
was afterwards discover* and that one of the
SIOO hills had been presented at a Bank
by a hoy and exchanged for small h.ils.
The Post Master ottered a reward of SIOO
for the detection of the hoy who had pre
sented the bill to the Bank, and late on
Saturday evening Inst, ahoy m the emph y
of J. P. Cooke, Esq. came to fie Cost
oflice and claimed the reward, stating that
he was the person who had the hill ex
changed, and found it near Joy’s buil
dings in the street, and that the money
was in his possession except.ng two dol
lars which lie had spent fora cap. This
iiov appears to have conducted honestly
in the transaction, and it is understood
had exchanged the hill after keeping
it some days, hv direction of his mo
ther.
This information lend to the di tc ction
of the thief but in what manner was not
stated. He however confessed that he
had taken the letter, and had concealed it
oi a certain space between the wall and
Joy’s building. On examination, the
letter with the $-700 hill in it, was found’
W hether the other SIOO hill had been
found, did not appear. H e understand
that it has been found.
The person charged with the offence
is a lad not fourteen years of age, who
had been occns : nnnllv m the Post Oflice
but was not connected with it in any eni
ployment. Ilis appearance was calcula
ted to excit. much sympathy especially as
this was Ids first offence and he seemed to
have been tenderly reared. J. P. Cooke
Esq. appeared as his counsel at the re
quest of the hoy’s father, and requested
leave to change the plea of not guilty to
guilty. He alluded to the extreme youth
of the offender and the respectability of
his connections. The plea was accor
dingly changed, and the prisoner recog
nized in the sum of ssoo, with his farther
as siirity for his appearance to tube his
trial before the Circuit Court to l*e hidden
on the 15th day of May next. At the re
quest of the friends of the offender, vve
have suppressed his name in the hope that
as this is liis first offence, and at his ten
der age, he may yet be saved from being
lost to society.

PORTUG AL AND SPAIN.
London Feb. 22. (evening.)—He were
able to state exclusively on Saturday upon
the authority of our Pasis correspondent
that the French Minister ot For* ign Af
fairs had signified to the Spanish Ambas
sador, in Paris, ;h* determination of the
French Government not to permit he
King ol Spain to send troops t<- the assis
'aiice of Don M igticl. He are informed
from a source entitled to the highest cre
dit, that note to a similar effect and al
most in as strong terms has been sent by
Lord Palmerston to Al. Zon Bermudez
the Spanish Mmistet at this Court.* The
lest dispatches from Madr.d left no doubt
of theexesteuce of a treaty between Fer
dinand and Don Aiiguel by which they
bound themselves mutually to assist each
other. Up to that tune, however, Fedi
nanil had not openly sent any troops into
Portugal, but large bodies of Spaniards
were arriving privately on different j>arte
oftlie fr n tiers. This important fuc. has
been formally communicated to Lord Pal

increase as the colums of the exiles pass
