To the Mayor and Council
of The City of Louisuilr:

NOUR fellow citizens of Louisville respectfully
i beg leave to bring to your consideration and
ask your immediate action upon the subject of the
Sabbath breaking Coffee Houses in this CITY,
Many of our industrious mechanics and trades
men, released from their ordinary avocations, on
the Sabbath, are allured into these receptaces of
vice on that day, and are tempted not only to a
ruinous expenditure of their money but into hab-
its the most fatal to their morals and their lives
AS it is impossible for the officers to take cogni-
zance of the numerous violations of the present
law against the sale of intoxicating drinks on the
Sabbath, and as the fine is so small that when de-
tectcd it does not prevent repetition of the act
we would respectfully petition that clause be
hereafter inserted in every license, that single
violation of the Sabbath shall prevent renewal Of
such license and that more efficient measures be
adopted to close on the Sabbath all the licensed
houses for the retail of intoxicating drinks.

FRIEND Coles: We often hear that the
clergy are not interested in the cause of To
tai Abstinence; or are not willing to give
their aid to help the cause along. This, we
are grieved to confess, is the fact in many
places, but it cannot be said Of the clergy Of
West Cambridge, for they are enlisted heart
and hand in the cause, and are not afraid to
speak in It's defence from their pulpits.
Rev. Mr. Horton, of the Orthodox Church,
last Sabbath morning preached very inter
estlng discourse from these words, "Where-
fore do we spend money for that which is
not bread;" found in the Sd verse of the
55th chapter Of Isaiah, in which he elo-
quently portrayed the folly of spending
money for Intoxicating drinks, and the in
iquity of the traffic therein.
In the evening, Rev. Mr. Carleton, of the
Baptist Church, by particular request of the
Washingtonians, delivered an eloquent and
ingenious address in the Baptist meeting
house, In which he recounted the obstacles
temperance men have overcome, and the
great reform they have worked in society.
lie related many interesting instances Of the
reformation OF nebriates, wrought by the
Washingtonians that have come under his
own observation. 1t was just such an adj
dress as we wanted at this time II was re-
plete with sound argument and encourage
ment to the laborers now in the field, for
which ne will receive the hearty thanks OF
the whole community.

We re-publish, in to-day's paper (see out
side) the letter Of rum-seller to the Hon.
T. HARTLEY CRAWFORD, Judge Of the Grim
inal Court, praying that the Brothers OF
Temperance may be restrained from hold
ing temperance meetings, as is their wont,
upon the Sabbath day, and insinuating, IT
the authorities do not interfere in some way
or other to prepen. these public meetings,
that the practice will lead to "bloody
strife" in our streets. We are induced to
re-publish the letter, with comments, from
the fact that our Saturdays edition was in
sufficient to supply the demand for that
days paper, many Of our regular snbscri-
bers being unsupplied. We trust they will
excuse US. We to-day strike off an extra
quantity, in order that they, and the public
generally, may have an opportunity Of read
