GEORGE saw AGE.

In our last we took occasion to repel an
unjust accusation brought against the individ-
nal whose name is at the head of this article
Temperance men are prepared to expect some
degree of persecution, and have made up their
minds to endure it calmly and patiently. They
cannot be turned aside from the path of duty,
by the attempts which are sometimes made to
asperse their characters, and injure their rep
utation. Before they entered upon their work
they "counted the COST" and have not been
disappointed in any thing that has happened.
They are even prepared to endure greater
amount Of reproach than has yet been meted
out to them.
Few individuals have shared more largely
in those prosecutions than GEORGE SAVAGE.
The drunken, the worthless, the vile, the in.
terested, the moderate drinker, the Christian
wine-bibber, have all been ready, in their
turn, to pour upon his head the vials Of their
Indignation. But in the midst of all he has
been sustained by public confidence and appro.
baton.
Let any individual take up the pledge of the
"Freemen's Visilant Society,"" Of which Mr..
S. is the president, and to which he has main
ly directed his energies for several years past,
and he will find in that paper the proofs not
merely of his zeal, but also of his success.
We have been informed that three thousand
names have been affixed to that pledge since
the formation Of the Society. These names
embrace individuals from the highest to the
lowest rank in society. Senators, Represen.
tatives in Congress-, Judges, Officers Of the
Army and Navy, Physicians, Merchants, Law
yers, Clergymen, Mechanics, Laborers, have
alike gone forward, and in noble disregard Of
the frowns and sneers of the thoughtless and
vicious, have united in the great object Of this
Society, and its kindred associations. A large
amount of this success is to be ascribed to the
persevering efforts of George Savage! When
other hands have become feeble-when other
hearts were faint-his was the firm hand and
the fearless heart which prompted to renewed
efforts in the cause. Nor has it been only at
the public meetings of the Society that he has
made himself conspicuous. Carrying out the
great principles of the association, he has gone
out into the homes and habitations of the
abandoned and dissolute, and has been the
means of rescuing scores of them from ruin.
Many an eye when il sees blesses him; for
unto homes of sorrow and sadness he has car
ried comfort and joy. He has not manifested
his attachment to the cause merely by words.
Others have wished it success-some have
contributed TO its support-bul from the COM
mencement Of this great movement in our
city, it has imposed heavy and continued
tax upon the subject of this notice Without
being wealthy, he has given most literally Of
his means to sustain the cause.
1t must be pleasant to him to know that,
while an occasional shaft is hurled at him, he
enjoys the regards of community who know
his worth, and appreciate his disinterested
labors. If were even otherwise, he has the
Testimony Of good conscience" and is look
ing forward to the reward of his labors in
better world.

On Wednesday evening the Lancaster Fen
cibles, and their escort, the Washington Light
Infantry, visited the Mansions and paid their
respects to the PRESIDENT of the United States.
His excellency received the visiters in his
usual kind and gentlemanly manner, and boun-
tifully supplied them with-IcE WATER
That's the way to destroy evil customs, and
elevate the character of this mighty nation.

REDUCTION OF FARE ON THE BALTIMoRE
RAILRoAD.-Thc Baltimore Patriot of We'd
nesday evening informs us that, at a meeting
Of the Board Of Directors of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, on that day, it was voted that
the fare on the Washington road be two dol
lars between Washington and Baltimore, on
and after Monday next We are inclined to
think this won't do. 1t is hardly fair that our
citizens should pay the same fare for 80 miles,
that is paid between New York and Boston, a
distance of 225 miles. 1t won't do, Messrs.
Directors, you may depend on it.

The TEMPERANCE people, throughout the
entire country, celebrated the 4th in the most
patriotic manner. In Norwich, Connecticut,
an immense gathering Of the "Cold Water
Army" took place; in which, it is estimated,
at least ] 500 girls and boys united In Wor-
cester, Mass, the turnou, was immense, and
addresses were delivered by Hon. John Davis,

Like real flesh and blood IL seems,
Mixed with celestial, like AstaTie's."
There's nothing Of Tie sylph OF gnome
Exactly in thy forms expansion,
Bu, i, would deck the humhesl home
And beauty the prondest mansion.
To lirt with for month or year.

Less siz-, less heart, OF course less dear.
With rather less Of health and visor.
But Tor ffiend-ye sois vile.

THE TARIFF.

The Tariff Question will be likely TO make a
leading and highly important theme for discus
SION, both in and out ot Congress, as soon il not
sooner, than the assembling OF The representatives
of The people in Washington, in December next.
That lis importance is great, and lis effects Of
high consideration 10 tie interests OF this great
nation, there can exist no reasonable doubt. We
have ever viewed it as a question 10 be delibe-
ralely, calmly, and nationally weighed, and per-
msnenily and judciously adjusted.
A Tariff whose leading and fundamental ob-
ject is revenue, with reasonable and equitable in
cden,al protection 10 our great national Interests
agriculture, manufactures and cotnmerce-has
ever been, TO onr mind, that kind of Tariff which
would not transcend the constitutional limit, and
must be sufficient 10 satisfy any man who is dis
posed To be satisfied with an equal and fair pro-
lection.
In adjusting a Tariff, strict eye should be
kept upon its ma obect--the raising OF revenue
10 carry on the government. A protection that
would, in the slightest degree, tend 10 ohsruct,
curtail or 10 increase beyond sufficient reve-
nue. Tor an economical administration OF The go
rien,, should be avoided as deep and deadly
stroke at The vitality of The consIution--one of
its great ife.springs being equity and justice.
That sacred instrument allows taxation upon
the people for no other purpose than 10 give life
and energy 10 The government under which we
live.
We have ever been opposed to a Tariff whose
sole end and aim is the taxation OF certain spcci-
fled articles Of foreign production. because some
rich capitalists in this country ask il as a means
of raising the price of goods Of like character,
manufactured BY them. We hold this kind OF
protection 10 be unconstitutional, injulicious, I'M
equal, and iu"xpedient. No true republican would
ask it-no truly Democratic Congress will ever
enact i,-.and no good and great people will ever
profit BY it.
We have not time 10 saw much upon this sub
jec, AT present; but We will here express our full
confidence, that the next Democratic Congress
will adjus, this question wisely, consiiulionally,
permanently, and equilably; and iha, our great
and growing nation will feel the blessed effect for
many years TO GOMEZ Seiem Mass Aarcrtiser.
