A TEMPERANCE TOWN.

We often are gratifed with references which
we find in our Northern exchanges 10 what
are literally, ia that section OF country, Tenn
perance Towns; and i; is not the less crafty
ing that in this land of comparatively unsteady
habits, we have happily laid eyes upon like
bright spot, The village Of Tennally Town, a
few miles above Georgetown, has lately, we
learn, through the praseworhy and perseyer-
ing efforts OF few noble advocates Of our holy
cause, been entirely converted into the smiling
abode Of peaceful Temperance. Almost every
man in its precincts and vicinity has become
Temperance man, and daily evince their ear
nest enthusiasm ia the good work by combined
efforts for its propagation. Old men, who
have been enslaved in drunkenness for years
and years there, have been newly born the
healthy children Of Temperance; and the only
dram seller in the place has been sadly made
to feel that his s'occupalion's gone" He, in
deed, appears to be the only man who does
not rejoice in the reformation, and so chra.
grined is he, that he even refuses TO those
whom he has SO long heeced Of their substance,
the poor privilege Of using the cool wafer which
bountifuly flows at his door. Consequently,
the Temperance men, we learn, (pityng his
fra1ty,) are about to thwart his animosty by
sinking pump Immediately in sight, where
all may freely quench the fire OF thirst, full
strong enough in every man, without the add
ed fuel of alcohol We understand that the
individuals who have been principally instru-
mental in SO successfully planting our broad
banner Of Freedom TO Man upon the heights OF
this little Town, are about as bold and strenu-
Gus an effort upon another small town farther
up, and they hope with equal success. Their
motto is one common to the present day. "Pro-
greH-P Progress'-a motto more honorable up
on the banners of philanthropc Temperance
men, than in the mouths of many others who
assume it. We only hope that many others
may be animated 10 similar efforts, and we
doubt not that soon Temperance town in
this city will not be novelty

TEMPERANCE ADDRESS,

Friends Of the Temperance Cause address
you thus because suppose there are no en-
eniies to this glorious cause within The sound
oil my voice. II there should be any such,
however, cannot but incline 10 the indul.
gencc OF the hope that ere these interesting ex
ercises shall have closed this happy com
pany shall have dispersed, they may be in
duced to lay down the weapons of their hos.
Iilny-conle over 10 us-Joln our ranks, and
lake up arms in the defence and promotion Of
a cause, which, of all others, may be consid.
cred the cause of humanity! Remember,
fellow man, if thou art an enemy to the cause
OF Temperance, thou art an enemy TO myself,
and sooner or later, thou mayest find il out,
in the anguish and bitterness of unavailing re
grets.
But began, my friends, by addressing you
as friends Of the temperance cause; and
shall continue to speak TO you as those who
sustain this character. Is there then in this
company, breast that does not thrill with the
most blissful emotions, in view OF the clrcum-
stances which surround us in this "glad
hour.o Oh, is there an individual among US,
who, in view of the bright and glowing pros
pect of ultimate triumph and complete sue
cess opened up before our vision on this great
and blessed day, is not ready to buckle on his
armour afresh, and nerve up his heart anew
to engage for the on pushing and outspread-
ing of the conquest Of this glorious work!
Here we are with sparkling eyes and smil-
ing countenances, and warm and animated
hearts. Here we are with banners flying, and
emblems shining, and the sound Of martial
music, falling in inyigoratina and spirlt stir
ring strains upon our ear Yesl here we are
with the fumes Of grace in our midst, and
the pictures of beauty in our gaze, and the
sweet and encouraging voice of woman's sym
pathy. and womans encouragement breathing
into our ear! God bless you, fair ones Ever
the sufferers from the dreadful consequences
Of lntemperance, your voice is ever raised
against it, your hand ever eutstretched for re-
covering and reclaiming those who are its VIC
Tins, and assistance and encouragement is
ever given 10 those who are engaged in an
effort for its extirpation. God bless you, then |!
prompts my heart again. Meanwhile my
friends, there is much, permit me to say, in
The circumstances Of this day, TO cheer our

IN Ertract from The Annual Report ofLe finer.
icaa temperance Union, for 1876.

An Extract from The Annual Report ofue finer
icas temperance Union, for l846
An increased interest has been recently felt
in the work in Christian churches and the
Christian ministry in most denominations, have
caused their voices TO be raised in their pulpils
in our favor more than in some years past
BY them the need Of its inhuence in the
churches, as well as abroad in the communl
sy, is seen and felt; and most manifest Il IS
that moral reform, unless deeply rooted 10
Christianity, and received IN love, must soon
be swept from the earth. No natural primer
pie will ever sustain men IN course OF self
denial and abiuration of all that gratlies the
deprayed heart Of man. The reclaimed drunk
ard may, in the novelty Of his situation, and
the joyful congratulations Of friends, and the
hope and promise Of better days, continue So
Der fer season; but unless lie lifts his heart
in gratitude and alliance to God-uness he
seeks strength from Him; especially if he
still yields himself 10 profanity, to tobacco, 10
idleness, to Sabbath breaking, and selfconf
dence, he is sure 10 60 back like the dog TO
his vomit." The higher value Of the soul TO
the body must take possession of the public
mind, or the temperance reformation will not
long be sustained. Let it be the language Of
men, Tomorrow we die" and they will
soon adopt the ot.er part of this memorable
passage, s.Let US eat and drink, take our
Gll--what cares ts tomorrow we PERISH
Butts il otherwise? that the soul never perish
es, and that the drunkard must be reformed or
he has no inheritance in the kingdom Of God,
and that souls unencumbered are dragged
down to the pits by the intoxicating cup, the
temperance reformation rises in importance and
grandeur, and imposes responsibility upon
Christian churches and Christian ministers,
which no human or angelic mind can es,i-.
mate. Woe, woe to the ministers Of this land, /,
il they throw their influence into the opposite
scale; and if, through their indifference and
neglect, the cause is suffered TO perish.
