VERY TEMPERATE.

At the last term Of the Court of Common
Pleas in Columbiana county, number OF
applications were made for Tavern Lii
cense which the Court deemed proper to
grant. For this act, the Court has been
saInted by The papers Of both political par
ties, in New Lisbon. with torrent of ma
lignant nvective, that we have not often
seen equaIled.
1t Is not our intention, in noticing this,
to inquire whether the cause of Temper
ance is better promoted by granting Lii
cense to applicants who come under the
requisitiOns OF the law, and who, in the
exercise of their privilege, are amenahle
TO the law, or, by refusing license, tacitly
authorize every doggery and grocery to
traffic at will in ardent spirits, We will
not inquire whether drunkenness has been
more prevalent IT, Columbiana during the
period that license was refused, than dur
ing period Of the same duration when
lice So was granted. These questions
are not material 10 our purpose. We al
lude to it because it excites ou special
wonder, that the public press which
has engaged with spirit and zeal in The
cause OF Temperance, ostensjbly for the
promotion ofpubIic molals and the gener-
al welae, should so far forget the object
they propose attaining, as to engage in
scanduous attacks upon the Court in the
discharge offs judicial functions.
1t is essential to the well being of So
ciety, for the very existence Of Govern
menl, that our Courts, in the adminislra-
ton of the laws, should be secured from
every possible restraint and influence,
which fear, favor or reward might pro-
duce. Unlike the Legislative department,
whose acts should bear the impress of the
public will, our Courts, it has been truly
SAID have neither force nor CiH but mere.

PREPARING FOR WAR.

Great Britain is making extensive pre-
paration for war,-nol that there is any
greater pro- ability of such an event at pre-.
sen, than existed some months ago, but to
be ready for the worst. The army is to be
increased 10000, the militia to be in read-
ness for immediate training, the ord
nance corps to be strengthened by the
accession OF l,500 men, the Royal Ma
rnes $500, the regiments Of the line 600.
The Navy to be increased by the addition
OF l 200 men.
By the way, noticing the preparation for
war abr load, we are reminded OF our .NiR-
taire at home. And without going any
farther, just notice
THE CARROLLTON GUARDS.
ThiH Company, commanded by Captain
Burger, turned out last Saturday, not in
great strength to be sue, but with much
spirit, and presented fine appearance
Although just in its infancy, it Is hand
somely uniformed, we'll oiiicpred and has
made CrediIaUle advancement in tactics
We should like very much to see the
Guards increase in hunters, as rapidly As
they improve in exercise and appearance.
We hope the General will not forget that
Rifle Battalion We fear if their service
wele demanded, they.wOuId not be ready
to take the field sat a minutes warning. >
Whilst around "they whisper with quiver-
ing lip, the foe, the foe" we should not be
found intoxicated with the giddy dance, or
sleeping on our arms.

ly judgement. So long as they are govern
ed 10 lhe exercise OF Iheir powers, by
judgment alone, they niue. remain the
least dangerous Of all the departments Of
lh, gaveruiprnt. But suteel laem 70 the
corrupt influence Of individuals eobals,
secis OF pariiesi or. by faIt,ry or Iibellous
attacks, to the influence Of party OF sec
tartan press, and their power for evil be-
comes tremendous. Prevent BY such In'
huencs an impartial administration OF 1Le
laws, and the laws become a dead letter.
They cease to have The power OF laws u
all. Without laws we are without gov
eminent. Where government ends an
archy begins. This would lie the legisi-
mate consequence, should Courts lay aside
judgment, and be governed by will. What
character then, can we atuibute TO the in
diyidual or party or press that should, by
the use Of flattering prayers or pecuniary
rewards on the one hand, OF libellous at
tacks or mob force on the other, endeavOr
to bring about such results. Surely we
can only attribute to them gross ignorance
Of moral obligation aud public policy, or
reckless depravity and corruption. Such
course is revolutionary in its tendency
whether pursued under the guise Of phi
lanthropy, morality or religion, and can be
justified by no considerations.
The cause of Temperance is a good,
glorious cause, but it must be supported by
proper and laudable means. The drunk
ard is a had member Of society, but it does
not Justify us in cutting his throat to get
rid oihim. lntemperance is a public evil,
but to remove it we are not iustiiable in
rampljng upon law and order. The COM
mon decences OF life are not to be violaI-
ed for tyhing considerations. The end
does not always justify the means-FIe
"Who noble ends by noble means attains,"
is entitled to the appeIIauon of great, a
good man. And he, who, IN order to at
tain ends however noble and praise worthy,
stoops to violate not only the decencies of
life, but the rules OF society and laws OF the
land, has htile claim to the character of a
good citizen.
We cannot but view as exceeding
ly reprehensbIe, the manner the New
Lisbon press have chosen 10 express
their sentiments in relation to the action
of the Court, upon the license question.
We cannot imagine another step they
could have taken that would leave them
so entirely inexcusable in the eyes Of law
abiding community.
