JoHS q. ADAMS ON TEMPERANCE
The following passage occurs in recent
address Of the venerable ex-President on
the subject Of temperance:
in the ardor Of your zeal for moral
reform. forget not the rights Of person. l
freedom. All ercess is of the nature pf
intempersnce. Self-goyemment is tie
foundation Of all orr political and social
institutions, and is is by self.goyemmen.
alone that the laws Of temperance can be
enforced. In The effort 10 recover your
brother from ireading the primrose path
of dalliance with the Circean cup, allure
him by kindness, rather than repel him
by reproach. Teach him still more by
example than by psecepi. Seek not to
force upon him by legislative enactment,
thai virtue which he can possess only by
the dictates of his own conscience. and
the energy Of his own will. Let no tiAc-
sure Of party politics be mingled with ,he
pure stream from the pure fountain Of
temperance. May the vatchword Of mo-
raj reform be the inscription upon your
banners, and may the standard Of your
spiritual and an.i-spiri.ual warfare, in con
cert with those congenial armies, be borne
aloft in triumph, ill the cause of temper
ance shall spread, conquering and to
from sea to sea, and from the
river to the end of the EARTH"

I" Mr.. Webster is certainly right in
contending that The evils Of the system Of
impressment, as practised by this country
in former years, are greatly enhanced
when il is attempted to enforce its opera
tions beyond the natural limits Of the ter
ritory and jurisdiction Of England and its
dependencies. Except as belligerant
right, it is altogether different from the
practice of visiting neutral ships in search
of the enemy's property. That right is
a part of the law of nations; il is neces.
sary part of maritime warfare; and, in
spite of occasional protests against it, it
has been asserted and exercised by all
great maritime states, and by none more
than BY the French themselves in the best
days Of their naval renown. But although
a neutral exposes himself to risk by TAX
