TO THE PUBLIC.

The subject of Temperance within the past few
wears has engaged in It's the alens of
man, and drawn forth the kndest and best feelings of
his hear, towards his fellow man; and whenever ii
has been sustained by sound argument, and strength
ensd by truth IN love, 1t has gone VIGOROUSLY
Eom conque ing to conquer andihe heart ofevery true
phanthropst has rejOced at It's success and were |
possessed OF requisite talents should rejoice to give
the subject new interest and 10 present It IN such
light that 1t should appeal still more strongly the
best interests and feelings every heart. Such being
my feelings and views on The subject OF temperance
Eegret exceedingly TO have 10 speak with firm
aud decided dlsapDrObalIon of the remarks u anv of its
pretended friends aIlude particularly to the re-
marks that MIR Charles Adams ma lie at Jfrco, on the
$50 INST, respecting me, which were wholly false,
ana sianderuus and ca cuiated to prejudice the public
mind against my moral and religious character.
While rejoice 10 see many pure minds and hearts
warmly engaged IN this good cause it is to be deeply
regretted that any with minds perverted from The
truth, and hearts caiOus 10 the finer feelings of man
should ever be permitted 10 disgrace the sacred name
oil temperance by enllstng IN lis ranks, or belchlnr
out upon his fellow czens the pcsllierous breath of
Islander, fsehOod and abuse thereby completely dis
gushing his hearers and dlshonorlng the cause.
rhe cause of sober temperance viii be heard and
when supported with truth, IN the love of IT, will pre-
vail but when supported by an insane fanatic with
falsehood and slander, and by arguments drawn from
heart bqckened, and calIous the finer feelings
and virtues Of man, il will be disgusting the audi
ence, and injurious to the true interests of temperance
The real friends Of THIS good cause am fully satisfied
VIII HUN WIN uttitu alShlpiouhtoH upon any lnul
vdua who under pretence of sustaining the cause OF
temperance uses ii as an instrument TO deal forth the
falsehood, SANDER, and reproach with which his
heart is so heavily laden,
But before drop this subject Mr.. Editor, i, may
not be amiss 10 suggest to my friend Adams the pro
prely of enaroing the subjects of his lectures and
touching with feeling and interest upon the following
topics, viz; lecture 10 Husbands and Eathers,
TO Lauyers advising them never TO council their eli
ens to pretend to drown themselves in the lake anC
leave their estates for them TO settle that they may de
fraud me creditors while the debtor is still living =
To Administrators, counsellng them not TO defrau,
The orphan and iaherless but to paw Them what il
their Just due BY dwelling these subjects, if h,
does no good to the public, he may perhaps benef
his own heat, if is not callous to all good prnci
pies. would also recommend to his particular nj
IGNITION and careful perusa that most exceIlen, NIECE
on SANDER which appeared in your last paper.
By giving the above remarks an insertion in VIM

WHEELING. March 2i, 1874

The herd Of Eufialoes which are on their way
to the May Convention, have reached this place
by way OF steamboat from Cincinnati. An ac-
cideM in landing them, by which one of the
herd broke away, afforded our citizens an un.
expected but very exciting exhibition Of Buf-
falo Hunt. The liberated animal took his course
through one OF the streets Of the town at the top
of his speed, soon followed by one of the Next
cans Of the party, mounted on horseback, prov-
ded with the laSso and other implements of the
chase. The animal, through the dexterity and
skill Of the hunter, was soon recaptured, but not
until II afforded our citizens the novel grat.fca-
ton of witnessing quite buffalo chase

ABOLITlONISTS READ!!!

We commend to the consideration OF
every member of the so styled Liberty
Party" we mean to every honest member
of that party, all who sincerely hope and de-
sire 10 promote the ends proposed by its Or
eanizaton- all who do not use it as step
ping stone TO advance their own selfish and
ambitious schemes Of personal advantage
the following suggestions from the Albany
Evening Journal. If the Tariff is repealed
If Texas is added to the Union, has not
political abolition brought about these dire
caamities. Have you not, persuaded ny
such designing men, as Leaviu, B'rney II Co
contributed to weaken and defeat the Wings
and thus have you no, given to the advocates
Of Southern interests, fatal ascendancy !
Look at Connecticut. Have you not sent
four Northern men with Southern feelings,
to the House. Has not the Liberty Party
been the direct means Of the election of a
Legislature that has prevented the cheice of
one who would vote against the admission of
Texas, and select John NJ. Niles, who but
for physical inability would now be in his seat
to vote for its admission! Have not the
Liberty Party been the direct means of put
ting Silas Wright into the United States
Senate, from New York--and Allen into
the United States Senate, from Ohio =
Have they not sent some fifteen Locos TO
the House from these States-where, but for
them, Wings would have been elected : If
Texas is admitted, and the Tariff destroyed
who have done more to bring these things
about, than the SO styled Liberty Party
Atlas.
SUGGESTIONS TO POLITICAL ADOLI-
TIONISTS.
Ifthe bill now before Congress, DESTROYING the
present Tariff, becomes Law, lis passage will
have been effected by the votes of Loco Foco
members wNo are indebted for their elections
To the action of the Aboltionists in Connecticut,
New York and Ohio. Did the Abolition Far.
mers and Mechanics, in throwing away their
votes, contemplate such result:
Is the abolition oi Slavery, in the District Of
Columbia. the first step to be taken in the pro-
gress of z 'n1ncpatoni And if SO, are the Alb
otionsts doing their duty in contributing to The
election Of "a Northern man with Southern
principles" who stands pledged to VETO any
bill Congress may pass carrying out this greatly
desired OBJECT.
Are the Ahoitionists opposed to the anncxa
ton of Texas 10 the United States? And if so
will they aid in the election of President and
Congress favorable to that object! Texas can
only he anneyed or hope to be annexed to the
United States, through the auspices of Van Bu-
renis'n. Abolition, promoting. as it does, by It's
political action. the success CT men in favor OF
giving fatal preponderance to the South, mus,
share in the responsibility Of bringing Texas
into the Union.
VIII not intelligent, consderac men, weigh
the bearing of these suggestions, VIII en-.
ligh'ened. phiianthropic citizens pursue a course
tending directly to extend and pronng the evils
which they seek TO abolish !-Eu. Journal
