Temperance.
IC0nininnd from last ,reek ]

Having already given one, and as We think
good and sufficient reason, for opposing the
present license system, II The sale of intoxica-
ting liquors is nd dangerous To our peace and
safety, we shall now proceed to give some 9th.
er reasons for our opposition TO ii; and first. we
say that the use Of intoxicating drink, as be.
reroge is not only an evil, but the greatest evil
IN our land; that il is the CHIEF cause of all the
evil we witness; and, tha, our Legislature, has
no right, for The purpose Of revenue, or for any
other purpose, to license persons, to sell liquors
for beverage II 1t is necessary they should
he sold for medicine. let Physicians or Apothe.
carries be deceased for this purpose, but not Tav
ern Keepers and Storekeepers, whose houses and
stores are the most unfit places to expose and
sell, without discrimination to all who apply
II may here be objected, that many in the trade
do not thus indIScrminately Sell-that they sell
10 no man who is intoxicated. nor To any whom
hey think will make an improper use of IL but
all experience shows, that, however careful
;hasc u en- are, they cannot very easily control
heir business. Ii is not uncommon, in these
DAYS of temperance, TO hear The wholesale dealer
(when he sees the staggering drunkard in the
treet) complain Of the evil of these wharf
groceries," and express his as'oniShmenl, that
such places are licensed and no doubt, at the
moment, think aS We do, that the business ought
not to be tolerated hut we enquire, where do
HtNt htp InU DcmllDnU HltItHdIlS, pcl lUtlI
supply? l. not their custom sought AFTER by
those who sell by the quantity! Indeed II is, and
he very men who thus speak, will not hesitate
o sell bv The barrel, Ia those whom they know
to keep The very lowest OF these places. lftherc
IS any difference in the sin, of selling n barrel
Of Rum to a person who will sell it out by the
gll, To g't men drunk, or selling II directly To
he drunkard, we should like TO know in what
hat difference consists. We can conceive OF
none, and therefore, we are equally opposed to
all who engage in the business; and paIicu-
l1rly opposed TO that unjust, and anti-republi-
can principle of monopoly which will for such
lS can raise twenty dollars, permit them TO do
hat business, which The poor man, unable To
raise The sum, must be indicted for doing. To
illustrate this little more clearly, we will sup.
pose two individuals. OF equal rcSpeciahlity,
are engaged IN this business, one of whom, be-
lng 'lr pays for bis privilege, and does all The
mischief he pleases but the other not being
able, canno' pay for his License, is indicted and
punished for The very same things lis he pun
shed for doing wrong, or Is he punished for
