In a large, old fashioned country summer house, in one of the “up-stairs rooms,” sat fire young ladies, one crimping ruffles, another arranging ar tificial flowers, and so on. They were surround ed by numerous boxo*, and pin cushions—bolts of ribbon, wrap* of lace, and other “feminine fix ins/’ as some crusty old bachelor nays, mb may be expected, their tongues went a great deal faster than their fingers, hut their conversation was of a rambling nature, and not well calculated to edify the reader inasmuch as It flew from “ducks of bonnets,” and “love of talmas” to beaus who eith er had “exquiait mustaches” or “jewels of eyes.” Miss Kitty Lovelace the youngest, and merriest of the party began to yawn, and express other symptoms of laziness. “Dear me ! Julia Casey” she said to her next door neighbor, or rather the young lady who sat nearest her. “11! fall asleep in my chair unices you quit talking about that “Don Whlskerando,” John Tompkins—we are all posted up as to his perfections, and you Mollie Water, hush talking about your sisters bridal hat we all know, or have heard you soy it was thp “most magnificent thing under the sun, 1 * a thousand times.” Miss Kitty was a privileged character, and so her remarks only caused a general laugh. “Now that’s worse than ever” pouted the spoil ed lieauty, “I didn’t say anything witty.

Besides I had “expectations” and that goes a considerab’e way with disinterested ad mirers.” “Leave out the moralizing and pnieeed with the flirtations,” interrupted Kitty again. “My first cqjfqire iu caeur came off- in my sis toenth year, I met an interesting young fellow on the cars when returning from school.

Accessories. —An accessor is one, who in any way aids, assists, encourages or causes an offence to take place or to fie cot;\rfo.tted; and Ifo is of* ten more ptjSqfoiai, and b,ut seldom, if ever less so than the principal offender. To illustrate, suppose B. to shqqt C. but had no pistol or other gun, nnff urndd po,t of hrinsed procure one. A. knowing this, gives oy sells him a pistol, with a knowfojge of the use Intended to be made of it, and B then shoots C and kills hjm ; B will be guilty of murder as principal, and A will be guil ty as accessory, and the law will punish him unct his principal equally. Apply the principles of this very plain case to the subject we investigate. That the trade or business of retailing liquors causes every kind and degree of -iri and misery that afflicts our people, is denied by no candid man ; though it is authorized and licensed by the law, without which, none dare carry it on. Many good men seeing all this, desire to elect members of the Legislature who will repeal the license law', but you and your associates in polities and morals unite to oppose the election of all those who are in favor of the repeal, and electioneer and vote for candidates who oppose the repeal, and who will protect and defend the continueneo of the liquor-shop business. By your votes, vou sup port, the continuance of the liquorshop business, and its work of sutund ruin gu pcrseveringlv on, bo h day and night. We now ask you, if you do not see, that by this course, you connect your selves with the liquor-shop business, and make yourselves accessories to all its evils.’’ If it were not for your electioneering and voting as you do, there are men who would soon put an end to all these liquor-shop evils; but by your votes, you support, protect and help their keepers-to continue that business. Are you, my brother, willing to hear a few passages of scripture, which are applicable to your case? We will presently quote them. It is a rule of law, morals and religion, that a man is presumed to know the effects and con so quences, which usually attend the acts he per forms; and he is also presumed to intend those effects and consequences, as well as the principal act, and is therefore held responsible for them. It is on the strength of these presumptions, that the most of criminals are made to suffer. Upon these principles, if a man turn loose a beast, known to be dangerous among men, a tiger for examp’e, and it kills a man, he is held guilty of the killing, and is punished. So if a man has power or authority to prevent an evil, and yet per mits it to take place, be is guilty in the sight of heaven, and is punishable for it. As in the law of Moses, which requires a man to be put to death, whose ox had killed a person, be having had knowledge of bis disposition to attack people.— See Exodus 21: 29. In the Case under consideration, voters know of the evils of the liquor-shops. They know that they are worse than road oxen and furious tigers, their keepers carry on a work of death to the morals, souls and bodies of men, destroying the welfare of woman, children and whole families! They who vote for men disjxrsed to protect and continue this business, knowingly aid, help and assist that continuance; and therefore are access ories to the eviL done by them, and are partici pants in the guilt of their doings. In the moral government of the Almighty, he who tempts another into transgression, or causes another to tempt him, is as guilty, and in most cases more so than he who yields to the tempt ing influence and directly transgresses the law 7 . Where there are several agents concerned ip the work of tempting, i. makes no difference, whether the temptation be presented by the original agent in the work, or by some second or other subse quent fellow worker. Consistently with this, thy Almighty inflicted a more severe punishment up on Satan for tempting out common Mother, and causing io tempt Adam, than he did upon them for yielding to the tempting influence, and actu ally transgressing the law, For them there was mercy and remedy, but fur Satan, we are not in formed that any relief from the curse inflicted was ever provided. Satan did not violate the law given to Adam by eating the forbidden fruit, any more my broth ers, than you commit the murders which take place at the liquor-shops. But he led our com mon Mother into temptation, and thereby caused and disposed her to tempt Adam, and they both went into the transgression. For what he did, he was treated as being worse than they were.— Though many of you may not take men into liq uor-shops. and there cause them to drink to their own ruin, and to become prepared to ruin others; yet, you vote for men who promise to preserve these institutions of sin and death, and refuse to vote for any others 1 Satan did not, (as I understand,) directly tempt Adam, but he tempted Eve directly, and *he tempt ed Adam. Y’ou bv voting fur the friends of the liquor-shop and their keepers, and refusing to vote fov any others, thereby preserve their busi ness, and keep it up as a profitable* money ma king monopoly. By this means you tempt or cause men to bo tempted into- the retail liquor trade a profitable, aud lawfol occupation, TJieee traders tempt as many into dissipation and drunk enness, (os a means of swelling their profits,) as they can. Yon have made it their pecuniary in terest to do this. Baton tempted Eve into trans gression, and she tempted Adam, aud so they all slued and were punished. Y'ou by the course of your voting, tempt or cause men to bo tofoptod to become retail liquor-sellers, they tempt all they can into dissipation. Thus you are all oonueeteff together in this sin, and we know of no daw or reason why you shouldjiot all be punfolivd together. For if the retailed fie gtfflty ter follow- ( TERMS: 1 $1 in advance) or, $2 at the end of the year, i IJOHNH^SEAI.S V CUOPKIETOK. VOL. XXIII.-KUSIBER 25. ing the business they do, then you who preserve that business, and keep ifThvvful and profitable, cannot ne innocent. If you suppose God was more severe r>u Sttau as a tempter than he wifi be. with you ;ia a tempt er, except that you have the privilege of ’repenting, then will your opinions be very disrCspecthji to Him. He carries on the administration of his Government, according to laws and principles, as fixed as the foundation of his throne. lie pun ishes none in malice or passion, but aecordfog to the immutable laws of Ilis moral universe ! It would be a most horrible law that would pun ish a man for a wrong, and allow him to escape who had tempted him into his transgression, or had in any way knowingly caused, supported, or promoted the existence or continuance of the tempting influence! God has no such inconsist ent laws in His Government. They are all found ed in principle, and all who violate ‘hern, or kuow ingly cause, encourage, or even sanction any means of temptation or influence ■tending to lead or intice men into their violation, are in moral principle all alike, and must expect, in the advnin strations of God’s moral Government, to be all treated alike. The social principles of this Gov ernment, require men to promote the good mor als and welfair of their race, instead of term ting their fellows into evil, or promting men to author ity, who provide or contrive means of tempting them into sin and ruin! These laws He will not permit to be trifled with, or their punishments to be evaded, except, on condition of an honest a* and timely repentance. But all who knowinglv trans gress, or knowingly tempt,or by indirect and con sequencial means caue men to be tempted into the transgression of these laws, are equally the proper subjects of punishment.

PREAMBLE. The intelligence of the death of Joseph Gris ham, of Georgia, P. G. W. A., of this State, and our representative in the National Division, has un expectedly met us at this meeting, aud we desire to express our love for him and our regrets for h death. He was a man -a bo never faltered in what ever he had to do. Asa follower of the meek and lowly Lamb of God, bo was ard-nt, active and sincere. He showed his fer.li by fo* works ; and it may, indeed, be truly said, “His works do fol low him,” Asa Temperance man, he never hesitat and. fie went for the strongest measures of Total Abstin ence. He was ready with his purse, his in reflect, his body and heart, to serve the Temperance cause, lie attended as a representative from Georgia, at Chicago, and St. John, under bodily infirmaries which would have confined other men to their beds. Still he made these great journeys, and was constantly in his place in the Division rooms, to aid with his counsel —and direct by his exper ience. Iu the Hall of Palmetto Division in this city, he last met the National Division, next June will be two years, lie then felt that we should see his face no more in the National Division, or in the. Grand Division of South Carolina. Still, lie efid uot cease to labor. His voice was still heard cheer ing on the followers of Temperance in Georgia.— But on the oth ulfo his work was finished, and his Master called him home. He was sixty rix years of age. He was originally of an iron constitution and indomitable will. Many years of his life (since 1836) were spnt in pain, and the injury which he then received was silently arid painfully, year after year, pulling down the noble structure of his manhood, until at last he fell, and great was the fall. He is gone! It is our duty to submit, still wc may be permitted to say : Resolved , That the Graud Division of South Carolina, laments the death of Joseph Grisham as that of a most beloved brother, Re-nolved, That we appreciate bis de\ otiq,ns to Love, Purity and Fidelity, and will endeavor to im itate his glorious example.
