TOWN MEETING.

Next Monday is the day appointed for choosing our Town Officers. We hope to see every Whig at the polls. They will have full vote of the LOcOfo- cos to contend with, as the object of securing the Seectmen is of great importance to their in manufacturing voters next spring. Let there be full turn out on the part of the Wings, and we can elect our men by handsome majorities. The apathy which prevailed among our brethren at the spring election was the only cause of their defeat We have a decided majority ill this town-will we prove it on Monday next?
 TIE COUNTY AGRICULTURAL FAR.-The lateness of the Fair in the week. precudes the possibility of our giving any account of the proceedings, or Re- ports of the Committees. In our next full Report will be given
 The Whig Young Men of the State of New York met in Convention on the 18th inst- at Auburn Be- tween FiUe and Sir 17ousand Desgases were in at- tendance. The greatest animation prevailed. A capital address presented, and able and spirited resolutions adopted, which speak in strong terms of
 the zeal and ardor manifested on their part to secure signal triumph at the approaching contest in No- vember
 TEMPERANcE.-One of the reformed inebriates, a MT. Goodenough, from the city of New-Flaven, ad- dressed large and respectable meeting of the peo1 pie of this village on Sabbath evening last. He gave as principal part ofhis subject history ofhimself, from his first entrance among the busy whirls of tedious life, reviewing his progress in the degrees to which he advanced from moderate drinker to a besotted inehriate-his frequent reformations, and being again and again precipitated into the gulf of dissipation. His remarks were of an interesting character to us, which should have been heard to be properly appreciated, and his hearers were evidently rvited to the narrative he nncermonousy contyibu- ted for their amusement and curiosity In the course of his remarks he said he presumed that no, one had broken the pledge who had signed it, even in this community-when an individual observed that such was not the case-more than hundred. perhaps many of them then present, had broken the pledge, (which remark in some degree staggered our worthy temperance frendJ If such is the fact, as it proba- ply Is Tn some measure regret to have this apos tie ot temperance carry away with him SO unfavoru- ble report of the moral state of this community which has heretofore sustained decidedly elevated charactcr-better, to that matter had he not come at alL But whatever the result of the exposition of this state of things my be, we hope good may have come trom his lecture-and if some few have bro- ken over the limits of this we'll intended and philan- thropic Society it is desired that they may again en- roll their names in the ranks soldiers willing to battle for liberty against the monster Rum-and too, become melted with sufficient degree of interest to bring new recruits along with them into the camp of the Reformers.
 How many signed the pledge that evening we know not, but we saw one man in particular, who has felt the effects of that horrible deruna to which the inebriae is inevitably exposed, place his name to the pledge! We hope this meeting was but a begin- ming of the good which is yet to come.
