CALEDONIA COUNTY YOUNG MINIS TEmPERANcL
SocIETy. On public occasion, in another part OF
the State . month or two since, one Of the speaks
alluded to the success which had attended the la
bors ofthe Young Men Of this County in the temper
ance cause in terms highly complimentary Of their
moral characters, and recommended their example
worthy of imitation by others throughout the
State. lie spoke Of their public meetings as having
been productive OF much good--ofthc interest they
excited, and Of the general attendance upon them
OF the noble band Of youthful soldiers they were en-
listing in the temperance corps, and OF the GLORIOUS
results that would follow their combined efforts to
elevate mankind. II is almost too late in the day
to attempt serious argument in favor OF the tenn
perance reiorm-Its fruits are too apparent 10 need
1.-THE Incorporate as well rs the temperate will
acknowledge It's Incalculable benefts-i!s healthiUl
and cheering influence upon the moral, intellectual
and physical condition Of our race. Thousands Of
individuals, themselves redeemed from the thradom
Of Incorporate appelites will bear personal tesn-
mony Of lis claims upon our continued regards -
Great and extensive has been the reform, uuch
yet remains to be done. The groans of neglected
wives the imploring cries of forgotten children still
echoe in streets and urge the onward till
every face wears smile and intemperance shall
be banished from the Yarth.
To the Young Men the present state of the tom
perance reform appeals with peculiar force and en-
phasis. Our seniors, who early enlisted in its sup
port do not manifest that zeal and devotion
H. which, first, characterized their efforts; but
they seem TO have grown weary in well doing, and
to have have thrown the responsibility of its iu-
ture success and final triumph upon the shoulders
of their moro youthful brethren. Hence itbecomes
the bounden duty Of the Young Men 10 concentrate
their influence for the furherance of cause in
timatey associated with their destiny and the des-
tiny Of the world. To remind the young people
of Caledonia County Of the importance OF full
attendance at tie anniversary meeting to be holden
at Peacham next Tuesday, we fear would be con-
strued into imputation of lack of zeal past
and similar occasions While the Incorporate about
the country turning out en- mob, let the friends
oftemperance turn out en- 7naSSe.

GEN. 7. S. Brown has been arrested at Md die
bury charge of Indebtedness to the Bank of Mon
treal. The circumstances said TO be follows:
In the fall of 1886, Brown endorsed the exchange
of a firm in Montreal London for a considerable
amount, which sold to the Bank of Montreal.
The firm failed in August last and the exchange
was returned protested. The firm offered los on
the &, but b. refused to accept it, but agreed with
the bank to give confession Of Judgment, which
would hold his property security, and thus bv
holding to the drawers the whole amount might be
secured from them. So the matter rested when he
left Montreal. The writ is for $4,000 and made
returnabic at Burlington. March oath, 1888.
The hennebec, Me. journal says-If the British
Government or the Governor of New Brunswick
have asked permission to march troops through
Maine, they do not appear to be waiting for such
PERMISSION but are already marching their troops
up the ST. John's as il appears by the New Ernns
wick papers.

BAHBARoUs In abiding to the Patriots who had
been taken prisoners by the loyalists, the Montreal
Courier utters the following execrable remark
at toouLd be ridiculous to FArTEN FELLOWS all
aotnte, for the gallons"
The Tory papers speak of blood and carnage with
as much nonchalence did the Jacobinica Journals
of France in the revolution of 90. The spirit
manifested by them toward the unfortunate prison
ers doubtless is reflection Of that of the Col
onal Government and it is feeling disgraceful to
u civilized ccmmunity-charcterlstc Of the most
abject heathenism. 1t may no: be true, it is ru-
mored, that the Government is d 5allng out whole
sale slaughter the captured patriots; but the blood
thirsty spirit exhibited in the columns oftheMonre-
al papers will tend strengthen reports of such
nature in the minds of the less credulous and deep
the prejudice of the people of the States against
Her Majesty Governm ent, and expand their sym
pathies IN behalf of those who have appealed to
arms for redress.

CIV no are they:
cone OF them is WILLIAM L. MCKENZIE"
The vast assembly burst into thunder Of APP

cessiom, and marched to music through the streets
to the residence Of DR. Chaplin, and gave cheers
for Mckenzie and his worthy host.
Mckenzie escape through the royal lines was
hazardous IN the extreme. lie was in disguise
and slept two nights in haystacks. Being clothed
very poorly, and mounted a good charger he
was once apprehended as horse thief He was
armed but did not wish to shoot the sheriff. so, to
ascertain his sentiments, he commenced talking
politics. The officer expressed himself warmly in
favor of Mr. Mckenzie, upon which he avowed
himself, but able to convince him, until he
showed him mis- marked on his linen, upon
which lie was at once aided to escape. Ii is said.
that before he had got the river a party of
horsemen. in pursuit, appeared on the opposite
