SHAKING OUT A REEF.

Extract from en- address by the Rec M.
CisaOsioad, of Salem, .Massachusefts
II might add, that the use of ardent
spirits. by men who persist in calling
themselves temperate men, has exerled
m immediate influence uafavorable 10
the proper transaction of business.
Every rejecting and aaprsju diced mind
is ready to acknowledge this, and every
other will be forced ere long to confess
it, A single case 10 psint, related the
other day at public meeting, by the
Secretary Of the Parent Society, will il.
lustrate my meaning. A sea captain,
now employed on board a public steam.
boat, and who once navigatsd the ocean,
relates it Of himself, that in bis former
Occupation, be was accustomed-al.
though he always called himself rigid
~ temperate msn,-to take small aE
lowance Of ardent spirits, at eleven in
the forenoon. and four in the afternoon.
He used in the course of the forenoon,
to have just as much sail spread, as
would enable the vessel to move safely
and steadily alosg her course. When
he came on deck after taking bis custo'
mary O'Clock stimulus, unconscious
Of its having the least effect on himself,
ne would cry out, up boys, shake out
that reef! and in about twenty minutes
when the exhiliration oft draw was
ove', he woaif look around, and hnd
that be had the vessel under more ssh
than she could possibly bear, and the or
der would be, up boys. take in the
ef!-Qaick bsys, quick!" Now, SAID
the eioqusnt Secretary, this is just the
operation of "ibe moderate use" OF IN.
loxicating liquors, upon all kinds OF but
sinsss throughout the country. 1t has
shaken out the rssf Of the most lucrative
callings, which our citizens can pursue.
Give me one half Of the money which
has bees squsndersd by temperate
drinkers, under the unsupported inhu.
eace of undue stimulus, through loss OF
lime and labour, waste of perishable
property, for waat Of reasonable care,
