Wa,hine'onians," and th. urgent err
treaties oF many distinguished lead.
ers in the Temperance cause. have in
duced the Subscribers 10 make an
Arrangement with iha, admirable
writer 10 furnish another series Of
Tales from real life. III
These Tales will be published in
sixteen weekly numbers, at the low
price of sic and a quarter cents per
lumber, neatly stitched up IN hand
some covers, suitable for preservation.
To those who have read the former
series of MIR. Arthur's Temperance
Tales, it need not be said that the
forthcoming series will be not only
deeply interesting, but will be calcu-
lated 10 do immense service TO the
great Cause which they are designed
To promote. Like the six Nights
with the Westinghouse" the sub
lects will be drawn from real life, and
IT will he the object of The Author
to depict the horrors Of drunkenness
in al! IFS varied and appalling forms,
as exhibited in different classes and
conditions of society, as well IS to
show the remedial means which Tenn
perance ass ,cialions furnish. In &C.
c"mpllshlng this object, Mr.. Arthur
will bring to his aid the same acute
observations, the same truthful de.
iineation, the same clearneSs Of mar
ratIve, and the same lofty morality,
which have marked his former pro-
duciinn; and it may be confidently
predicted tnat, through the influence
he will thus exercise, many an inebri-
ate will he rescued from the fangs Of
the DESTROYER.
The price of these Tales is pur-
r"seiy made verv low. that they may
be brought within the reach Of all
persons; and it is confidently hoped
that all who desire to see the Tenn
perance cause flourish will aid in their
