TEMPERANCE. we are gratihcd 10 perceive
that the friends Of Temperance are going forward
with iirmness ofpurpose and with so temperate
a zeal, as augurs well for their success. We un'

Of BRISTOL.
1t is surely source Of congraiula,ion, TO the
friends of the cause ofTenperunce, ,ha. such has

The friends of reform have duty TO per-

They have but to ascertain clearly what this duty
is. and then, with becoming temperance, they
are To prosecute those measures, which will secure
their purposes, with an untlinchng courage, and
with an unwavering sleadiness and perseverance,.

men may arrogate 10 themselves seiisuificient in
dependence and iow much soeyer, they may

The riches of the rich can neither bribe the
