COMMUNICATION.

! The Litck6sid County Temperance Society held Ii
third monthly meeting at Harwinlon on Tuesday the
22nd. The day was fne, and large and respectable
assembly was convened from that and the neghborinu
towns. Delegates were present from Is auxiliary
societies The Society were also favored with the
presence Of their President, his Honor John Cotton
Smith. The Delegates reported s43 male and 800
female members; total 1875. Increase since the last
monthly meeting 469. The reports of the delegates
were in general Of a very interesting character ;
shelving gradual aud delightful advancement Of the
cause throughout the county. Several merchants
were named who had driven the distilled poison from
| their stores; and few dislers, who had ceased
from the business Of dislaiiom. After the reports
were delivered, the Society was addressed by the
Rev. Mr.. Marsh, Of Haddam, Secretary of the State
Society. The Society then adjourned to meet at
Goshen, the 4.h Tuesday of October, at 10 O'Clock,
A. M.
The following resolutions were unanimously passed.
and ordered to be printed in The Ltchfed Enquirer:
ReSotred, That it be recommended to the branch
societies to take measures embody all the statistics
relative to the subject Of Tntemperancc and the pro.
gress Temperance in the respective towns, that the
same may be communicated as far as shall be judged
expedient at the county meetings.

effect the above resolution.
AT The close Of his address, Mr.. Marsh remarked:
" The intelligence, refinement and high moral char
acter of your county, afford yon gentlemen, pros
pect Of success, not to be looked for in many parts of
the State And it is a consideration of no small mo-
ment that you are enlisted under venerable aud be-
loved President, once iusrious in political life, but
now more iIlustrous, and gaining we trust, higher
crown Of glory than earthly in active service in his
Redeemer'scause; leading and forwarding the benev.
client operations of the age, and dhfusng rich and
lasting blessings through the world around him."

that the fear produced by similar knowledge has pre-
vented many Editor from coming out in opposition
to the late attempt to induce Congress to interfere in
the religious opinions of their constituents But as
the efforts to stop the Mails Sundays will be
ed at the next session with increasing zeal, trust
that all who desire the preservation of Liberty and the
Rights of Conscience, will be awake and take such

fraught with such incalculabe evils. As the subject is

LATE FROM EUROPE.

The ship Roman, Capt Gurrel which arrived YES
terday from Liverpool, brought Liverpool papers to
the goth of July containing London dates of the 9th
State Of heland-It is very evident that the Cath
Ole Emancipation Act has yet gone but very lit
tie way in quoting the disturbances of Ireland. BY
several Of the late arrivals we have been furnished
with the revolving details of fresh outrages in various
parts of the country We have also heretofore stated
the fact Of the meeting of Privy Council at the Vice
Regal Lodge in Dublin, to take into consideration the
alarming state of the country At that meeting pro-
clanation was issued for the suppression of all as
sembies tending to endanger the public peace. The
proclamation, which is general with respect to
tics, prohibits all meetings held for the purpose Of
communicating religious or political opinions or SEN
timents, and commands all magistrates to be aiding
and assisting in the dispersion thereof. The Dublin
Evening Post thought this measure would be of no
use, and insists that the circumstances of menace, out
rage and DEATH and the general danger resulting tote
peace of the country from the popular meetings, would
justify a resort to martial law.
The Limerick Chronicle gives fresh currency to
report "that Lord A. Conyngham will contest the
county Clare, and that from the declared opinion OF
Mr. Sugden, Solicitor General, it is believed Mr. o.
Conne if elected will be incompetent to sit in the
present Parliament, having once refused the oaths
We don't believe Mr. Sugden ever gave any suchopin-
ion.

Look oat!-The impostor who lately passed by the
name of DIR Jackson, in Albany Of whom some ac-
published in the Register last Saturday. it
is believed has paid visit TO this Borough where he
called himself DIR Abercrombie. A man answering
the description given of him, stopped at one of our
public houses few days ago and stayed short time
lie had notice inserted in of the newspapers
stating that from 10 to Is thousand dollars might be
had on loan. The gentleman, however, decamped
without putting any of his money in this place. not
even as much would pay his bill, to lqudate
which he left trunk containing book and sundry ar
ticles Of apparel, all of which marked Henry
Jackson He stated that he was member of the
Methodist Society, and declared his intention to cross
TO Jersey to visit the camp meeting near Sharptown
But it is quite probable he has gone in another direc
ton, and it would be well for Editors generally to put

Hundred Dollars, which were concealed in bundle

and which he confessed he had stolen in the manner
before mentioned.
Sunday Mails."-We beg leave to call the atten-
ton of our readers article under this head in the
Register to-day. We look upon the late attempt made
to procure the passage of law to prohibit the
portaton of the Mails on Sundays, as occurrence
which ought to alarm the FREEMEN of America and
arouse them to take bold stand against this daring
and dangerous effort TO open the door for Union OF
Church and State. We know from experience the risk
an Editor runs in speaking word against any thing
done under the name of Religion how ready the un
charitable and ntolerant to misunderstood and mis-
represent his motives and his expressions and how APT
they are to wage against him and prescribe hin

Several of our neighbors have requested us to call
the attention of the proper officers TO the filthy and dis
graceful condition of the footway the east side of
Orange street between High and Queen streets. They
have Just cause of complaint and their grievances ought
to be Immediately redressed. We think that if in
spection was made not only of the place mentioned
but of other parts of Orange street, the necessity Of
q reform would not only be apparent to the eye, but
would very sensibly affect the oactory powers. We
referred the complanants to make direct appeal 70

were informed that that plan had been tried in vain
