INIENPERANCE!

At the l,le fall term OF the Superior
Cour, Tor Stokes county, the Grand
jury found true bills of indictment
against nine persons, for habiiua drum
kepness f! This looks like ",aking. the
bull by the horns" Various have been
the speculative plans of individual mo-
ralists, and philanthropic associations, TO
break the power Of the great mother of
vice and immortality, drunkenness. and
to bring back her deluded votaries TO a
proper sense Of their condition as ration
al beings and moral agents; but M one
measure we'have yet heard of, seems 50
we'll calculated to arrest the spread OF
this besetting moral vilofour country, as
the plan hit upon in Stokes county. The
Grand Jurors of Stokes deserve to be
held in perpetual remembrance by their
fellow-ciizens, for this &C, OF indepen-
dence, OF fearless integrity, and faithful
discharge Of their duty. They have SCI
a noble example to other counties. 1t
neither tears, en,reaties, thre ats, nor per
suasive language will do, let the proper
authority try "what virtue there is / =

The editor Of the Republican informs bis
readers tnat at a meeting at yandalia on the
Sd inst of citizens from almost every county
in the state, proof " irfefragable" was pro-
duced, of a decided majority of the people Of
this state being in favor Of convention. The

other counties were equally "lberal," the
friends Of slavery will not gan the ascendency
IN this state at the next election.
