We allude to I; e1..-? of TEMPERANCE. Some may smile at It subject v/fe have taken for our leading remarks in. It'.:, d.-y-.s piper. In u political paper, the introduction Ici such a subject may appear pragmatical. But our I r in will recollect, that when wc set out with our I I j.to.'i .1 1-hours, we explicitly declared, that the con t i.:* 3 o; the col .inns of our paper should be varied, and I that the improvement of llic public morals, with the ad- I Tauci tncnt oi the arts and sciences, should constitute lecie oi the principal ends we would have in view. We. |*re redeeming only our pledge, in taking Temperancej |f r the subject of our remarks ; and we do this with tlie. I i. .-: c ti. it we may contribute in producing that reform in | I the habits of the intemperate, which, otherwise, must; I J (i them to liic-ir ruin, and to the rum of their families. : | In our remarks v.c cannot pretend to r.uvance any tningi pew; the subject has been latterly very ably, feelingly,] I end eloquently treated. Bat this should not deter the: | r.c!!-intentioned from saying what they think, though itj I fn;tv be borrowed from others: if it produces a good es- I ft- t, this is ail whot i*< requisite. However, wc take the subject under one point of view which, wo believe, Las n»t been sufficiently impressed upon the niipda of the ■ people. I i monarchical governments, where there exists a : I n .rked distinction among the people, and where the f 1 onmuinity is divided into classes, the higher class is dis- I tiiiguished by titles and wealth. But at the same time, I the individuals composing tiiis higher class, claim for | themselves a grea'er degree o! refinement in their man | ms, in the rules of social intercourse, and in their be. t viour towards each other, and towards the lower I elapses of the people. They claim also a creator degree | of attent >n and polite ness to, and deference &. respect tor, I the lem-de sex. Our proposition could be exemplified by I r. bat bus come under our own observation,and by what ti n. I - idler- ! our rvu country have reported they had seen I in Europe. This higher class, in order to exercise this curtesy in a most acceptable manner, and to adhere | re re strictly to the rules cst iblished for their social in-. J • rcoerse, liave generally abstained from whatever might I I-u l them to break those r iles, and behave contrary to | that politeness and respect which they considered due to the icie. de sex. Temperance 111 tlu-ir drink is conac | quetitly better observed among the polite and courteous, | thin among those who have no regard for those social 1 I rules which give a zest to the intercourse between the I two 3 xcs, and enhance the pleasures we feel in the I romp any of friends. In England, France and Spain, the higher classes are more temperate than the lower I classes ; and no doubt that this is owing to education, I and examples at home, and to a more frequent inter course wi h the female sex; while the lower classes, - more dependent for their livelihood, and constantly occu pied in acquiring the means of supporting life, cannot devote much of their time to social intercourse, andean, not, consequently, acquire and observe the rules which} I this .social intercourse imposes. Hence, the lower class | > s in Europe are more addicted to intemperance than 5 the higher classes. Infills country, where there exist? hut one class; 1 where wealth is more diffu-icd and subdivided, the same remarks are not so applicable to the population as they t are tj the population of Europe. The law, in this coun -1 try. niakds no distinction. The man without ancestral I qualifications, can become President of the U. States; | be can, consequently, acquire by education, and associ-' | ation w ith the courteous and polite, a knowledge of the ‘ rules which ought to govern him in his social intercourse ; i end he is bound to pay that deference, attention, and re-| ppect to the female sex, which is always expected from f a in m possessing all the attribute? of his nature, and win. h civiliz 1 tion Ins refined. In Europe, intemperance[ among the higher clasrss, is noticed with more nttcnJ I tion than when i: is to be “ten among the lower classes.] In this country, where we are all equal, intemperance! I should attract a? much attention, when and wherever it 1 S is to be met with, because every citizen, in whatever sit-! i ’cation he may be placed, is an object upon whom much ■ depend, in point ot example. This citizen may be 3 fa.| tiur: nad what a father must he be, if he gives the cx-j unple of intemperance to his children? This citizen 1 * may i>e called on to fill an important office : and w*hat an’ f officer will ho be, if ho is intemperate? This citizen | may become a judge; and what respect con the people [ have tor this organ of law—for the law itself, and what ) aasuranc* can they have of an impartial administration : ‘.j lUPtiec, it he is intemperate 1 Let us consider the subject in another point of view. | la tins country, a* 3 we have said above, we arc all equal, cti being equal, we are all liable to associate together; j tin.: associating together, we arc bound, by certain rules, j to rcndc. cur cial intercourse as pleasant as we possi bly- can to each other. Temperance is certainly one of *' 3 sc rules, and the principal one, for without it, there I .*• uo pleasure i:; associating together. The intemperate b.lt will acknowledge, when sober, that there is no | being more :n-upper able in company than an intempeJ | ‘ -to man. In ov.r social intercourse, we mix frequently] | with the icaaalo sex , ana can the intemperate be an a { t ‘hie companion ’ The intemperate disregards ail I die rules established for social intercourse ; he mars ail i the n’easurts wc can enjoy, an i becomes loathsome to I !;.s relations and to his friends: he i? avoided by all as! 2 pesk’.encc. Intemperance can find no excuse in this > country There is no high class and no low class of the V • T’e here Whenever a mr.n is intemperate, whether [ he is a lawyer or a doctor, ? shoemaker, or a carpenter, j be should attract the gaze of ihr multitude, because we 1 fito ad equal, and because good examples are expected | v nr, every citizen. There is no excuse for his offence ; he cannot pi m l in extenuation that hia betters have shown him the example, as in England or France. Ev »rv citizen in this country, whatever may be his avoca tion, and hi 3 mean? for obtaining a livelihood, is a moral turd political agent, and bound by his equal station in the community, iodise', ,rgc faithfully, the duties attached to Mat station. Evl ry citizen violates the rules of social ratcrccurse, violates the laws of God, whenever he in- C-dges himsi it in liquor to inebriation. In Europe, ex amples are expected from the higher classes; and when ever those examples are good, the lower classes, which follow them, are found to be more virtuous, and to make e nter citizens, than when the higher classes are corrupt and given to dissipation and debauchery. In this coun ’■>. every citizen has his share ot the public burden to bear, and his share of public duties to discharge. Ho is therefore doubly culpable, when he is faithless to the Lm.-t reposed in h,m. because he impede* the regular • Jicoplo. : operation,? of the fovemm'-r.t of which he Is a eensfitu- j ent part. The conclusion to be drawn from our remarks is, t tnat, in our free country, an intemperate man is guilty of j the most serious offence against his country and against ’ his fellow-mea. He is unfit to discharge the duties of any public station, to which every citizen may be called;; he gives bad examples to his children ; and renders mis- 1 erablc the wife to whom he promised to extend a hu?-ji band’s protecting arm, and to make her enjoy all the in- j nocent pleasures which can be procured in this world ; ji he violates ail the rules cf social intercourse, by be ll coming a nuisance to society, and by obtruding htmselr, when in a disgusting state of intoxication, into the corn. Ijpany of those who may be rationally enjoying the plea, i sure? of social conversation. jj 1 When a man is guilty of such offences, what should j I be his punishment ? In conclusion, wc will observe that, if there are men w ho, putting at defiance all moral, social, and religious J obligations, are willing to continue to le ala depraved • and debauched life—to be a nuisance to society—a char-re to their fellow-men—and to subject human na- O •* tore to the opprobrium of having produced such de cradfed bc-in">;—we sav, if there are such men, let them = ~ - _ i beware of the consequences of their mode ot living aV this particular time. By their intemperance they shor ten their miserable lives ; and by their intemperance 1 jjthey cannot expect to escape the cholera. It has been j ! well ascertained that in Europe and in Canada, the lem- ,j. perate and abstemious were less liable to catch the dis. case, and if they caught it, less liable to experience a fatal termination. Dr. Kune, deputed by the municipal authorities at Plattsburg to proceed to Canada, with a lew of obtaining information, relative to the Cholera, in Lis report, says:—“ What classes of the people doc? j the disease affect most? It broke out first among the I; miserably poor, destitute and intemperate, ot the French ! population—those who were debilitated by previous dis-!| 1 ea e e or other causes—the aged, and among the cmi- 1 ! , _ _ 3:3 , i j-grants ; and continued its ravages almost exclusively a«|j • I mong them till the 20th, when it laid its iron hand on ij . tliose who are in better circumstances in life, and of tern-; ; perate habit?. The same gentlemen who communicat. i ed the foregoing, are of opinion that this latter result was more the consequence c-t panic than any other ,i cause.” Dr. Bronson, of New. York, in a letter to Messrs.,; Townsend & Webb ot Albany, dated Montreal, June 22d, states ; ( “ Cholera has ctood up here, as It has done every ,; where, the advocate of temperance I; har, pleaded most eloquently, and with tremendous effect. T.ie dia. ease has searched oat the haunts of the drunkard, and lias seldom left it without bearing aw *y its victim. E . ven moderate drinkers have been but lit'le bet'er off. Ardent spirits, in any shape, and in all quantities, have . been highly detrimental. Some temperate men rosort-i] ed to it during the prevalence of the malady, as a pre- h venlive, or to remove the feeling ol uneasiness about ;i the stomach, or for the purpose of drowning their ap- 1 prehensions, but they did it at their peril. It is believed never to have done good, but nearly always injury. The slight indigestion which was so common, was best relieved by regulating the kind and quantity of food, • and by great moderation in the use of the ordinary drinks.” Dr. Rhinelander, one of the Aldermen of the city of New. York, who generously volunteered his services to visit Canada in order to obtain information in relation to I the Cholera, has returned; and reported to the Board of Health. We have not scon his report, but we make the following extract from a letter addressed by the Dr. to the Editor of the New. York Standard, dated July 1, 1832: “ What ere the best means ot preventing the attack ? I would say entire abstinence from spiritcus liquors, us. j ing Port wine in moderation, when any symptoms of i oppression or sinking occur : avoid all green vegetables! J j and unripe fruits, which are exciting causes; keep from j the streets during the heat of the day, and never walk'; I i jn the sun without an umbrella; and above all, avoid. crowds and impure atmospheres. Let the clothing bo! tlannel, to keep up an action upon the skin, and let a i belt of the same material be worn. Temperance in! every shape is the great preventive. We may ask who! are its victims ? I answer the intemperate—it invaria-; bly cuts them off. It is a mistaken notion that stimulus | is necessary ; wine may and does do service, while we ' are under the influence of this poisonous atmosphere ;! but spirituous liquors as a preventive always do harm, ] and hurry the drinker to his fate. E irly hours are im- 1 portant, tor the e.xpo-’ure to the night air generally brings on the attacks. Persons are taken more often at night | than during the day.” ! * itli Jssly ait Wayiaesborough. 1 The celebration of the soth Anniversary of | American Independence, began by the firing ol' : j cannon early in the day. — Flic flag ot" the Uni-' ! ted States floating throughout the morning, from 1 ' a capped J-.ib-.-rty Pole, erected on he public] . square—a fine bund of music, playing nu ional , airs through the streets, together wi h the as .] semblugc of an unusual number of ci izens from .j the country, evinced that a recollection of those* 1! who in our revolutionary struggle offered life] i 1 for liberty, needed but a re urn of this day to 1 shew forth in full green existence, i At 11 o’clock, the two volunteer companies l ■ and stats ofliccrs, with the citizens, marched in l 1 procession to the Methodist Church, where, af-| ter prayer by the Rev.

The Albany Argus contains the Report of the Committee on the state of the Republic, adopted by the Legislature of this state on the Cherokee question, preceded by the following letter from i Mr. Camak. It is published in the Argus at the i request of Mr. Camak, the New-York Observer, j a professedly religious paper, particularly Indus i .rious in giving currency to statements to the prejudice of this state, having refused to publish it, a fact respecting which the Argus justly says —“ \Ye cannot express, too strongly, our repro bation of the course of the New-York Observer, which al\er having filled its columns with the most exaggerated and unfounded statements,/or sectarian and political effect, refused to insert an oliicial document on the subject, although re- I quested to do so by a respectable citizen of Georgia. And yet that print professes to be ex clusively religious, and none makes broader its philacteries. Shame on it !’* It is gratifying to see our citizens thus em ployed while abroad in the dissemination of truth respecting our relations with the Indians, among those wdio are purposely kept in ignorance for political ends. To the Editor of the New-York Observer, New-York, June 1, 1832. Sir—Since I left home I have conversed with many persons on the subject of the missionaries who are con fined in the penitentiary of the state of Georgia. I have been greatly surprised at the opinions entertained and expressed in relation to the course that has been pur sued by Georgia;—and the more so, as these opinions appear to me to be founded on an apprehension of the facts of the case, altogether erroneous. To dispel error, and to give to those who sincerely desire to know the truth, an opportunity of gratifying that desire, I request the publication in the Observer, of the enclosed document, and the notes annexed thereto. Permit me to express the hope that it will bo attentively read, and patiently examined. In the Baptist convention lately held in this city, the writer of this article is informed, that the question con cerning these missionaries was agitated. Mr. Stocks, j President of the Senate of Georgia, being one ofthe dele l gates, had the report and notes printed and circulated among the members of the convention. The result was i an unanimous vote in favor of Georgia, as the writer has ■! been informed. i The author of the report, E. A. Nerbit, of Morgan | county, is a member of the Presbyterian church : and as ! a jurist, a man and a Christian, he will not suffer any thing by a comparison with any man of his age in the country. The author of the notes is a distinguished member ofthe Baptist church; and has been, tot many years. President of the Senate of Georgia—the second officer in the state government. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, JAS. CAMAK, of Seville, Geo. OKsTlNiilV. ! It becomes our melancholy duty to say to the world, . our friend Wm. Hk Smyth is Dead. He departed this , life on the 3d inst. fifteen minutes after one o’clock, A. M. in the 24th year of his age. There breathes not j one, who knew him for what he truly was, than will not ■ corroborate our testimony, when we say, that he was' 'o! a kind, generous and noble heart; of clear, manly and vigorous powers of thought and reflection, of eminently temperate, correct and moral habits and deportment. His long-protracted and blighting illness, was home wdtli an exemplary patience and constancy of spirit ; and above all, he manifested throughout the whole course of his sufferings, a noble spirit of calm and digni fied resignation which is at once the sure result, and :.best evidence of a well spent life.

WANTED, large Rooms in the vi cinity ofthe Post-Office, fur the above business. Communicated from Charleston. Having witnessed the improvement of a large number of pupils in Penmanship, to whom Mr. Carpentier has 1 recently given instruction in this city, it gives us great pleasure to inform the public,that the system of Penman ship taught by him is by far the best as -well as the most expeditious that we have ever known.

Henry, M. Roddy. • ■■ ■ ■' Communicated from a Committee of gentlemen in Charleston. We the subscribers, having received instruction from Mr. Carpentier, in the science of Book-Keeping, do hereby express the high satisfaction with which we have been successfully conducted through the most ob acute intricacies of that all important branch of com i mercial education; which so many fail to understand, [ though aided by the most common approved system of managing accounts. The system of Book-Keeping taught by Mr. Careen, tier obviates, however, every difficulty in th4t science, and renders it what it always should be made, plain and practical; and must, when it becomes known, be ad , mired for its unrivalled superiority over all the ordinary systems of Book-Keeping extant; and in a word, be come a substitute for every other. We therefore, most., gladly recommend Mr. Carpentier to the entire confi-jl, dence and most liberal patronage of the community. m Signed in behalf of the Class: Allston Gibbs, Pastor of St. Philip’s Church.
