TEMPEWCE CONVENTION.

The advocates of total abstincnoe from intoxica-
ting liquors, taking advantage of the large Leila: of provincial
sod foreign viaitors to the metropolis, have organised an
International Temperance and Prohibition Convention, for
the purpose of discussing, the benefits which they allege
tbatthe adoption of their principles °enters. The las Leathering
of the kind took ewe in 1846, and one of the objects of the
present meeting was to exhibit the progress which hes been
made in the cause slum that time. ' The proceedings were
opened yesterday at the Hanoverequare Rooms, under the
presidency of Sir W. C. TaxvnyaN' and in the
proems of a large number of delegates from different
parts of the kingdom. It wee lannouoced that no lees
than 700 mimes had subscribed to the convention, that
lEZod,ocieties and nine of the great temperance leagues of
Ireland, and Scotland had given in their adhesion
to it, and that support from America had not been wanting.
The convention was formally opened at a general meeting,
which wee subsequent) separated into sections for the
reeding of tiapere and a upon the subject of tee-
totalism in its different bearings, educational and religious,
social and sanitary, economical and statistical, scientific and
medical, and political and legislative. Provision was also
made for the consideration of the historical and biogritcadel
parts of the question, and of the operations of the '
of Hope."
The general meeting was held in the great ball, which
was well filled. Letters of apology for absence, but express-
ing concurrence in the objects of the coevoution, were read
from Lord Brougham, the Earl of Harrington, Lori Dem-
ean, the Rev. Dr. Sprat, of Dublin ; Mr. Robert Charlie-
ton, of Bristol ; Dr. M'Kensie, of taverna', • Pretoria'
Newman, Mr. R. C. Delayers, and other *derision of the
aurae of teetotalism in different parts of Europe and the
United States of America.
The PRESIDENT then read his opening address, which com-
menced by/ stating that it was scarcely necessary at that
time to enlarge upon the paramount imporrmice to the
whole of the community of the object. for which these asso-
ciations laboured, for there could be few who did not ac-
knowledge the great evils, physical, moral, social, and poli-
tical, arising from the liquor traffic, whatever differences of
opinion might arise as to the remedy. These amoratioes
believed there were unmistakeable Cigna--and the present
large meeting wee not the least of them—that, with the
march of intelligence and the extended knowledge of their
rinciplea, among the people, public opinion would before
o • great change upositheimportantquestioa they
were met to discuss. The present uuhappy state of things
in this respect arose from ignorance of the true nature of Mho
articles against which they warred or recklessness ea the
part of the legislature and of the public as to the owe.-
gammas of the sale of intoxicating liquors, provided a large
revenue was derived from it. A large proportion of the cases
lathe hospitals were due to the evil of drunkenness; and the
neeterity for penitentiaries, lewd schools, and charity
schools et most kinds was, to a great extent, owing to the
temptation to intoxication which everywhere beset the
working-men. As these pernicious effects became better
haws so must the cause of temperance progress.
Mr. JOINER Thoar, of Halifax, who was received with
loud cheers, then addremeed the meeting as the president of
the Historical and Biographical section.
Mr. J. Houoserox, of Dublin, read an introductory paper
as president of the Band of Hope section. His arguments
were directed to prove that temperance stood at the bead
of all efforts for the improvement of the human nice, and
that inebriety was one of the most serious obstacles to phy-
sical and intellectual progress. He quoted a number of
authorities to show the physical effects of alcoholic
beverages, and condemned the use of them as a sin against
health and hie, and as inimical to virtue and religion.
The opening address in the section devoted toss dis-
cussion of the educational and religious effects of temper-
ance was postponed in consequence of the absence of Mr. Ct.
Pope, the president of the section.
The convention then divided itself into three sections to
read and discuss papers. Each section was well attended.
In the first section, the subjects discussed were historical
and biographical. Eleven papers had been net down for
reading ; but two or three remained versed for want of
time. The first paper was an interesting review of the pro-
per of the temperance cause sauce a oouventiou held in 1846.
The author was Mr. T. H. Barker, secretary of Ithe United
Kingdom Miami,. The sips of program noticed were the
formation of Beads of Hope, the erection of temperance
halls, the improvement of temperance hotels, the develop-
ment of temperance organisations, the increase of temper-
ance litesature, the recognition of the question by the Na-
tional Association for the Promotion of Social Science, the
endorsement of total abstinence principles by medical men,
the banishment of the liquor traffic from numerous estates
by the landowners, and Mr. Oladstone's personification in
his budget of temperance as virtue and vice is the liquor
traffic. The Forbes Mackenzie Act was also referred to. A
paper by Mr. Delavan, from New York, referred to the
banishment of alcohol from the army of the Potomac.
Other papers were read having reference to the progress of
temperance on the Continent.
The section closed by unanimously passing a meiotic's,
moved by Mr. WILFRED LAaSON, M.P. for °elide,
declaring that total abstinence was the only true and secure
basis of temperance recreation.
The second section wee devoted to subject& educational
and religious. It wee held in an ante-room, which was
crowded all day. In the absence of Dir. Julie, the Hoe.
and Rev. LELAND NOLL presided. The prograninia in-
cluded ten papers, of which two were necessarily omitted.
A masterly essay on the educative power of law, con-
sidered in relation to the Permissive Bill of the United
Kingdom Alliance, was contributed by Mr. Palau, of Barr-
head.
The Rev. Ilium GALE gave a clergyman's view of the
question, and stated that the bishops had intimated their
willingness to socept a 'election from the works of Dr. Lees.
Mims C. H. Prirourroe, of Preston, read an able paper.
which was listened to with interest, on womeas work in
the temperance reformation.
Dr. Lams read a paper oa the fallacies of biblical inter-
pretation with reference to wise ; and be produced sad
dispensed a bottle of pure wine, juice of the grape, which
had been three years in the bottle, and which did cot con-
tain alcohol. It had gained an honourable mention at the
Exhibition.
Dr. Tants., of America, said he bad come to this country
to prove that alcohol was not useful as • medicine. Medical
men had been deluded ; they could sot explain how &ladle
acted on the human frame, but be was in a position to do
no. The Bull Run panic, he sail, was alcoholic.
This 'action also passed a resolution embodying the de-
ductions from the papers read. Great interest was takes in
Baud of Hope operations, which were discussed in the third
section. One practical determination was to seed as
address and deputation to the Sunday School Conmetien,
now being held. Between 3 and 4 o'clock the convestion
resumed. The proceedings of the sections were reported and
confirmed, end the convention &dimmed to this day. The
sections are expected to be vary fully occupied, as many
practical paprs have berm submitted to the committee.

No doubt our congratulations would be as
hearty as our good wishes if we knew the young
lady as well as we know the Prince. It remains
for us to make her acquaintance, as she is
only seventeen, and of a family which does not
pass from its own Court to ours so often as the
German royal connexions do. There is iu her
favour, however, the traditional interest that
England feels in Denmark. We like to keep up
the remembrance that the two countries were
once, twice, and more under the same King—
one of those Kings being CANUTE, of whom
we are still proud and fond. The Danish
Raven was once a symbol of terror in our
country ; it is now a talisman of romance,
rousing our imaginations on behalf of the
country and people who lived under that flag.
After the seemingly interminable jealousy between
Denmark and Germany grew up, four centuries ago,
on the establishment of the Oldenburg dynasty
on the Danish throne, England maintained its
connexion with its old friend and occasional
enemy; and, amidst centuries of political vicis-
situde and of varying moods between the two
nations and their governments, there has always
been in the English heart an instinct of kindred
with the Danes, and a disposition to favour any
alliance between the royal houses. It was by such
an intermarriage that we became possessed, unin-
tentionally, of the Orkney and Shetland Isles,
which were mortgaged to Scotland for the dowry
of MARGARET, daughter of CHRzerrAit 1., in 1469.
The Queen of our JAMES I. was &Danish Princess.
The wife of CRRTSTIAN VII., of Denmark, was
a sister of G Boum 111. ; and it was no
small aggravation of our regret and horror in
having to assail Copenhagen, and segregate
the Danish fleet in 1807, that the Prince whom we
were compelled to control, as a tool of NAPOLEON,
was the nephew of our own Sovereign.
GEORGE 111. expressed his sympathy very charac-
teristically by telling his own envoy, Mr.

Jammer', that it was well for him that the ex-
planatory interview with the Crown Prince of

DENYABX took place on the ground-floor of the
palace ; because, if it had been on any upper
►tory, said the Ring, " he must have kicked
" you down stain." That dreary transaction lies
at the door of the universal foe of that day.
Denmark was a tool in the hands of NAPOLEON
for our destruction ; and, as the danger was
averted, there was no occasion to bear malice
after the aggressor had fallen, and the liability was
over for ever. As far as opportunity has since
arisen, the sympathies of England have been with
Denmark to an extent which has caused complaint
in Germany in the case of the existing quarrel on

The President denounces the Federal generals
for arming slaves, and General Butler's proclama-
tion, and states that the Federal government evaded
answering the inquiry whether they sanctioned these
acts by replying that the inquiry was insulting.
" Retaliatory measures must be adopted against
those who disgrace the profession of war by making
it an occasion for the commission of monstrous
crimes." The exasperation caused by failure has
aroused the worst passions of the enemy. Relative
to finance, President Davis says that the accumu-
lated debt is small.

The Earl and Countess of Craven will shortly

An increased issue of Treasury notes for the ser-
vice of the country is recommended. "The very
large increased force of the Federal government may
hereafter render it necessary," he continues, "to
extend the provisions of the Conscription Act to cid.
tens of from 35 to 45 years of age. The vigour and
efficiency of the present Confederate force, and the
skill and ability of its leaders, inspire the belief that
no further enrolment will be necessary ; but fore-
sight has caused Congress to grant power to call
more troops into the field if necessary."

A bill has been introduced into the Confederate
Congress for adopting retaliatory measures against
the Federals, as well as a bill levying an export
duty of 20 per cent. on cotton and tobacco, to aid
in indemnifying the losses of citizens by the enemy.
A bill has likewise been introduoed providing
that a Federal army, composed incongruously of
white and black men, shall not be entitled to the
privileges of war. All negroes, belonging to such
an army, who may be captured will be sold, and
their commanders hung or shot.
