TEMPERANCE CAUSE IN IRELAND.
Ballston Centre, march 81, 1910.

Ballston Centre, march 81, 1910.
To the Editor of the Albany Argus:
Gentlemcn-All your readers are doutless
informed Of the astonishing reformation now
chiefly effected, under Providence, by the Ia
bors of Father Matthew and the Catholic
Clergy.
The Dublin Weekly Register of February
LIST, states shat the number already enrolled
on the ! otal Abstinence pledge amounts to
66O, 900. Later statements give the number
as one million, and not an instance vet known
of backsliding.
The Limerick Chronicle says "that the de-
deposites in the Savings Bank have nearly
quadrupled in three months" In Cork not
a drunken person was seen in a fortnight.
The Liverpool Mercury states: That al
ready 1.-THE d~istillers in Ireland, in ccnse-
quence Of the overstock OF whiskcy, Caused
by the temperate habits OF the Irish people,
are now seeking a mart in the West India and
Portuguese markets"
At the Waterford quarter sessions, the
Chief Magistrate congratulated the grand jury
upon the Rev. Father Matthew.
At Cartleamer $4,000 persons took the
pie lge in two day. Wherever the subject is
presented the people are ready to receive it
IS confidently anticipated, that the whole pop
ulation OF Ireland will speedily be brought un-
der the heallhful influence of the principles
OF entire abstinence from all that can intoxi-
cate.
1t is supposed that a great proportion Of
those who have listened TO the powerful ar
guments of .ther Matthew and his associates.
though they may not have signed the pledge,
practice upon lis principles. The Irish and
English papers which lave reached nc by
the recent arrivals, are filled with history Of
this wonderful moral reformation, and with
speculailons as to the influence il is to have
on the future prospects of Ireland. Unless
England adopts and follows out the same
principle, Ireland in my opinion will become
the most powerful of the two countries.
The London Times sees rebellion in the
present temperance reforms in Ireland. We
announce 1t Says the ediior) "as the first
movement of direct rebellion" The Irish
press, admitting the charge, SAYS, ayes. there
is TO be a rebellion in Ireland, nav il has al
ready commenced; but il is a rebellion of
truth and righteousness, which long been
groanlng under the tyranny of custom. If
Is a revolt against the dominion of the animal
appeiiies Of the people; it is treason against
Tie sovereignty Of a degrading vice. The
people are resolved to cast offthe foul usurner
and enthrone moral rectitnde in its stead
May ihey never ground their arms until sue.
cess has crowned their efforts"
Yours respectfully,
EDWARD c. DELEYAN.

subject Of the New Jersey election for members OF
The Twenty-sixth Congress:
Mr. DUNCAN said, he had been rather lookeron
than particpator in the scenes that have been acting
from the time since have assembled: and but for
some charges that have been made against the Adml-
nstraon he thought il his duty to support, and the
marty n which it was his duty and his pride belong,
r. well as some doctrines that have been advanced,
which he thought pern!cous and dangerous in all their
Hearings and tcndenci"s he would not now attempt to

former or sustain The latter he hoped he would not DC
considered out cf order if be responded to some OF the
charges made and Of the positions taken by the
Opposition, not directly bearing on the question really
before the House.
The first charge that he would attempt 10 meet was
that which every Opposition member, who mad address
ed the House. had made against the Democratic party,
viz: the consumption of the people time and the PEG.
pcs money Sir we have fallen far short of the PEG.

in the organization Of the House But, sir, think the
Democracy Of this House have but little 70 fear from
The people in this struggle. They have been maintain

4 the first eleven days of the session there were:

The Journals will show that nearly all the motions

made and supported By the Wings
This carries Us up TO the close OF the eleventh day OF
the session and the result shows that the money and
