Hear Uncle Dabney’s—
cheering voice again;
it always comes with thrilling eloquence, 1 kc tho cry
of the Highland Chief shouting to his comrades. —
Would to God, Georgia had ten thousand such men.
But his like is to bo found nowhere, —such pure,
untiring and disinterested patriotism animates no
other bosom.
Many thanks for the large list of new subscribers
Prohibition Him., Ga., June 13th, 1857.
Dear Seals: —l have always had but one view
in the darkest times that have ever shadowed our
cause, yes, even when our glorious star seemed al
rinost to set —and that is, that the good causo, the
cause of God and our country, liKe the morning
star will rise again in full orb’d beauty—so I think
yet Thank God there are yet scattered all over
enough temperance heroes still to rally by
their voices and example, our scattered and dis
mayed forces, and by concert of action, to plant our
Hag again upon the imperishable basis of Truth—
“ Truth is mighty and will prevail,” and the motto
*‘hope on hope ever” is inscribed on its folds. Yes
sir, a reaction has commenced in “our parts,” that
is telling powerfully in favor of our cause. It is not
worth while for me to tell all my nieces and nephews
in Georgia, that their uncle can ye! raise his voice
for two hours at a time ; and thank God in my own
vicinity (as I have not traveled much lately) my
■successes have almost exceeded my most sanguine
expectations—Newnan, I had like to have said my
own Newnan, is upward—l went down there on
Thursday the 4th inst., to help organize the new
Division, tho result of my labors on the Saturday
before, but to organize was out of the question.—
The Court-House was full at night, and I spoke ono
and three-fourth hours, followed by that talented
and devoted temperance man in principle and prac
tice, J. M. Thomas, Esq.,—the result of which I
presume you have seen in the Newnan Blade, which
I trust will wear a sharp edge henceforth, to cut for
our cause. Palmetto is upward—l counted forty in
the Division room last Tuesday night. Now iny
dear John let our old heroes everywhere rouse up,
let the old temperance Lion wake up and shake his
inane, but let the dew-drops remain.
y I had intended to give you the particulars of my
Jefferson trip, but I have thought proper to omit
it as some friend has noticed it. Tell our cold wa
ter heroes every where to remember the 9th July,
our Convention meets then —come from the North,
South, East and West, let us show the world tem-
Scranec is not dead in Georgia. Tell my friend
person, I have not the pleasure of his acquaintance,
hut I have heard of him. Tell him to come and
have his cannon well charged with balls, slugs,
trace-chains and chain shot, and let it boom with
telling effect upon the old prince’s strong holds.
0 for one more rousing meeting—(Governor or no
Governor) —come up Inends make one more sacri
fice for the cause of woman, couutry and posterity.
Well John, I had as well come to something else
which may please you, I send seventeen subscribers
attached, with the Ithino. Now just sec already
the blessed fruits of a strong Division in Palmetto,
every subscriber save one from the Palmetto office.
Hail Crusader, may you fly full pledged to every
nook and corner in Georgia. Our paper must bo
sustained. Why has it not a circulation of twenty
or thirty thousand ? Let temperance men answer
—I am glad “Prohibition Crusader” has taken up
his pen again. I know him —l hope if we are
spared, to meet in Atlanta. I hope all the Rail
Roads will extend the usual accommodation on the
occasion of our Convention. Railroads, Stage lines
&c., are deeply interested in our causo.
Truly &c.,
D. P. JONES.

Doing Good.
Yep, there’* a joy in doing good,
The selfish never know,
A draught so deep, go rich and pure,
it sets the heart aglow;
A draught so exquisitively rare
It thrills the soul with bliss,
And lifts it tea heav’nlier world,
Or makes a lieav’n of this.
A Fact. —A young lady in Brooklyin, New York,
has recently had her leg amputated midway between
the hip and knee in consequence of a wound caused
by a broken hoop. The hoop was of steel, and in
some unaccountable manner, a broken point pene
trated to the bone. The wound became inflamed
amputation was thus made necessary. We have the
story from a young lady who is the friend of the
now crippled for life victim of fashion, and can vouch
for its authenticity.— Winstead.

Extracts from Letters.
We give below several interesting paragraphs
which we have taken the liberty of scissoring from
our private correspondence:
Gwiknettk Cos., May 6th 1857.
Mr. Crusader: —l have been ft subscriber to your
valuable paper ever since it came into being, and
have always paid in advance; my subscription is
due, and I therefore, send you one dollar which
you will place to my credit, and still send me the
Crusad. r. Some people sav it does no good—in
temperance is on the increase—this cry is mostly
from those who love tho good creature and want all
restraints thrown off, that they may enjoy their
rights, independence and priviliges that their fore
fathers fought ami hied for. Mr. Editor lam an old
man and have watched the signs of the times, and
will say boldly, and fearlessly, that your paper has
done good, is now doing good, and will still continue
to and) good so 1 ng as it is conducted by such fear
less and independent men as yourself and its former
Editor.
Over twenty years ago a brother and myself join
ed the temperance society—took tne pledge—there
were two others of our kind good neighbors that
opposed the cause. My brother and myself instill
ed the principles of temperance into our boys—
read the Temperance Banner, then published at
Washington, by Rev. Jesse Mercer, and tried to ex
ert some influence in favor of the good cause, well,
what has been the result; our neighbors, one a
drunkard, the other a Deacon —loved his dram but
did not drink to intoxication; the drunkard’s sons
have all turned out to be drunkards; the Deacons’s
sons, most, if not all of them use, and love the good
creature, and now and then get drunk. My brother
has raised five or six sons and not one of them, so
far as I knoA’ uses any spirits. I have raised eight
sons, say from fifteen years old and upwards, and
all temperate boys, not one uses spirits as a bever
age that I know of. What a great blessing that,
to have so many sons and all walking the temper
ance road. Sir I feel proud, yea, thankful to God
in the prospect that lies before me, that none will
ever fill a drunkards grave, at least I cherish this
hope founded upon the sayings of Soloman: “Train
up a child in the way he should go, and when ho
is old he will not depart therefrom,” so you see the
effect of the good cause in four families in one neigh
borhood, no doubt thousonds of similar cases
have occuncd in our State. Still Prince Al
cohol is rallying his forces and taking advan
tage of circumstances to advance hi s hellish
cause, and among the rest he uses political cam
paignes and Christmas times to exert his destruc
tive influence. The campaigne last year has wrought
a great amount of evil to civil society—church and
State. I know some churches that has been in
trouble during the most of the winter, dealing with
those members who drank to intoxication (luring
the electioneering of politicians last fall, and Christ
mas holidays. Who can think of the pj-.st, ar.d
look on what is just ahead, and not feel a deep sym
pathy in the coming elections to take place next
Fall. Many a pool man through the influence of
King Alcohol and party spirit, that is runing so high
in our land, lost their lives and filled a drunkards
grave notwithstanding, we have seen and heard of
their folly, yet many more I fear will follow their
steps and end their days in wretchedness and ruin.
P. M.
Ashvillb, N. C., May 14th, 1857.
Mu. J. H. Seals — My dear Sir: —There is a strong
reaction taking place in this end of our “Old North
State” on the Temperance question now. The peo
ple are begining to awake to their duty, and a
strong reinforcement in all the subordinate Divis
ions is the happy result. We all look forward to
the called meeting of the Grand Division in Au
gust next, with tho fondest anticipations.
I am pleased with the “Crusader” for the short
time I have been a subscriber, it is precisely what
we need. Go on in tho glorious work, success will
certainly attend us, and though the providence of
Heaven may not permit us to behold the full fruits
of our “labor of love,” yet, another generation will
“rise up and call us blessed.” J. L. 11.
Sutalle, Ga., May lgth, 1857.
I wish to say to the friends of reform and prohi
bition, don’t be discouraged. Though the cloud be
dark, and the enemy’s host seem to gather strength
yet your cause is good, and I have no doubt, there
are more than 7,000, who do not bow the knee to
Bacchus; but it becomes us not to sit down in idle
ness. Though we may not succeed as well as we
would wish, still let us keep in mind the great truth,
that no one is so insignificant, that he has no influ
ence; let each one do what he can by example, by
admonition, by argument, and by entreaty, to en
list tlioso around him in tho good work; and though
we may in some instances, fail to see the fruit of
our labors; still lot us not be discouraged. Labors
of love are never lost; and Him that is higher than
the highest will regard the matter. Let us not dif
fer about the modus operandi of carrying forth the
reformation; for though it is evident that, legal en
actments are indispensably necessary to the consu
mation of the temperance reform; yet, we must
reach these enactments through moral suasion.—
Then keep it continually before the people, that
hundreds of women and children are daily, nightly
and hourly, groaning in wretchedness, under the
tyranical rule of rum. Keep it continually before
the people, that daily and hourly, men are falling
into the drunkards hell. Prove by the large num
ber of total abstainance men and woman, that there
is no necessity for using ardent spirits as a beverage
at all. And keep it before the people that it is a
fact, that sober dram drinkers do more to promote
drunkenness, and dram-shops than drunkards them
selves. Why ? Because, a respectable man or wo
man, has more influence than a druukard has, and
every hoy that commences a course of dram drink
ing, stands his chance to becom: a drunkard. While
the boy that drinks none never can be a drunkard.
Then ye lovers of good order, banish the bowl, ye
friends of humanity raise the war-cry, but let it be
known that the war is not against men, but against
alcohol; ye ministers of the Gospel, warn the peo
ple of their danger; ye professors of Christianity,
let yourlight shine. \y, u.
gggp Thank you kind friend for your remittance

Danville, Ky., May 25, 1857.
Mil Seals. —Enclosed please find five dollars
for the Crusader, you will credit as my case
requires. The last remittance placed me ahead
but as time is ever onward, I may now belong to
the guard of those composing your noble band
of supporters, and if the amount above named
should not place me in a position to suit you, com
mand me, i promis to obey. Permit me to say to
you, without any design to (latter, that the Crusader
is a welcome visitor in our family circle, we esteem
it an able defender of the principles it advocates
long may it live to do battle in the temperance cause
regardless of consequencese. We often feel discour
aged and think the enemy has the advantage, but if
you can hut realize that He who rules Supreme is
on your side, take fresh courage, never give up,
all will be well in the end.

HOTEL FOR SAFK.
We very much need a first rate Hotel in Penfield,
and with a view to securing one, the subscriber now
offers his House, built for, and originally occupied as
a Hotel, to any one wishing to engage in such busi
ness. The House is large and commodious, embra
cing twelve comfortable rooms, with convenient pan
tries; is beautifully and pleasantly situated on a lot
of four acres, with every appurtenance necessary to
commence immediately. The business, I think, will
pay any one who will conduct it properly, since any
number of boarders desired may be obtained, while
the proceeds of a single Commencement occasion
will almost, if not quite, defray the annual expenses.
The subscriber is offering this property upon the
most reasonable terms, and any one who really de
sires it, can hardly fail, upon application, to find
everything to his liking. By paying a few hundreds
cash, an arrangement can be made by which a pur
chaser can have credit for any number of years, in
side of ten. W. B. SEALS.
