but this is also great mistake. Ii is
tsue, the thing in itself, is not wrong !;
but it encourages that which IS wrong !;
and the very circumstance of man
standing alaof, and refusng to mingle
with drinking party, woald force re-

the result.

SPsrticus, showing the evils oi drunken
ness. Su,ely here is field for the dis
play OF talent.
The writer Of the above compliments Mr..
blackwell, add wishes him to give 1t place
