TEMPERANCE MEETING.

!
The one on Monday evening was re-
vivins ono 10 the friends Of this great and
good cause. The Methodist Church was
filled by very attentive and apparently
highly interested ard gratified auditory.
Judge O'Neal, the noble and generous
leader Of that cause ip South Carolina, ad-
vocated II for about an hour ia speech
reple,e with interesting anecdo,e. correct
and manly sentiment, and able argument.
He ran over the subject with mastery
power, depicting in glowing terms the po-
sition Of the drunkard, and the disgust men
are compelled to feel at the meanness OF
his ways and The loalhsomeness of his
habits. The dram drinkers plea, that be
uses liquor as stimulan, 10 appetite, was
next taken from him 1; aud the gentleman
who likes to sip his wine at the social
board, was adlnonished of the dangerous
ground on which he ueads. The young
lnen, the hope and promise Of the country,
were en,reated, as a father doth his son
and we think here his remarks were pc
culiarly happy and Impressive, coming as
II did from such source. He also intro
duced some memorials handed to him by

Dear slr-Uuder cover for my friend,
The Hon franklin Pierce. of New Hamp-
shire, Of date The I'd instant. received
yours of the Goth October, 1913, in which
you slate tina, in your history of New
Hampshire you have asserted the fact that
the words beauty and booty were used as
watch words by the British at New-Or-
leans, &c-that this has been con,radicled
in one ofthe federal papers, and which you
appeal to me for The truth Of This state.
men,." To which reply that on the 9th
of January 1915, after the battle of,ba,
morning, was found amongst the papers Of
British sergent that fell near the line.
(oue OF the left columns of the British army,
commanded by General Keane. and led
on by Col Rodney agains, my righr,) an
orderly book containing the words Beau
ty and Booty" as the watch-words of III ,
British army for The Sth January, 1915.
These words being found in the sergent's
orderly book, were believed by all to have
been the watch-words of the British army
on that day. The British officers have
since denied that such was given by the
commander in. chief; but il would have
been an awful responsibility for subordi.
nate officer TO have given it without the
knowledge and consent OF the comman-
der-in chief.-Fron the fact disclosed,
none Off my officers, as we'll as myself, ever
doubted but that il was the real watch
word for the day Of the British army, and
history has thus recorded. These are the
facts. and posterity mus, judge whence the
WATCH WORDS proceed.
! am very respectfully.
Your most obedient serv't.
