Two colored women, in Philadelphia, under
the influence Of intoxicating drinks sold 10

were we TO say they are ignorant--had fight
on Monday, when one was seriously injured
by stab from the other. An Irshman named
Doolan, bought liquor in Boston, last Satur-
day, drank it, and fell from the third story of
an unfinished building, TO his great hurt of
course but the rumseller is still al his shop,
ready to prepare the poor Irishman or any 9th

fised on Tuesday, by Mayor Swift. at Phila

groggery, the prime cause ofthe disturbances,
was not spoken Of. The sellers at Brooklyn,

/ THE CLAIMS OF TEMPERANCE.

We claim great deal for Temperance
We claim that the Temperance reformation
has already conferred upon its advocates, an
exceeding great reward, and upon mankind
blessings ineslimable. We claim that sher
ever temperancs has advanced, vice has re
coiled. We claim that in many nations--in
the North and in the South---in the East and
in the West--in cases innumerable, through
the influence Of the one great principle, TEN
perance, wealth has sprung up where before
there was poverty wretchedness has given
place 10 comfort; poorhouses and Jals have
been ,hinned of their victims; haunlSot SIN
have been broken up, and Sabbath breakers
have become orderly and honorable citizens.
We claim that temperance has already ac-
compshed SO much, that it merits the love
and support Of all good men. AN this and
much mneh we claim for temperance
But heaven forbid that we should ever be
found in the ranks Of those who set the tenn
perance cause above, or in any way compare
tito the Gospel Of Jesus Christ. Be our right
hand palsied before we ever admit that tenn
erancc alone can redeem men from the thral-
dom Of sin. One who is perfect in his ad
herence TO the principles Of abstinence from
Intoxicating drinks--one who has solemniy
pledged himself to total abstinence, and has
kept his pledge with inviolable sanctity, may
swear, may lie, may be guilty Of dishonesty /;
but were he perfect 10 obedience 10 the Gospel
of Christ, he would be free from all sia---
Were all men temperance men there would
be no drunkenness;and were drunkenness banish-
ed from the world, it would carry with it host
of accompanying crime. But were all men i'm
bued with the spiritof the Gospel, all vice, adul-
tury, fornication, uncleanness, lasciousness,
2idolatry, witchcraft, hatred variance, emula
iions, wrath, strife, 'sedi,ions, hersies, mur-
ders. drunkenness, revellng, and such like,
would perish from among men; and in their
stead would abound every where, among all
nations and in every family, love, JOY, peace,
long suffering, genueness, goodness, faith,
meekness, temperance. Glory and success
to the temperance cause, but woe to the man
whs maintains that any thing bat Christ
cruc6ed, can redeem the world from sin.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Public in their privileges, public in their bles.
sings, SO ought they 10 be public in the affec
lions of the whole. 1t ought TO be known that
the cilzens are interested in their success. lie,
not your interest in their prosperity be hid
away in some remote corner of your heart,
by your nearest friends, and where YOU your
self can scarce find it without very dilligent
search. Ii you would have the public schools
succeed, GO to their examinations, show an In
terest in their prosperity, inquire into lhei'
progress, encourage the teachers, search out
and expose their faults, and approve what
is worthy Of praise. Let the scholars when
they return daily to their homes, be but able
to tell their parents that room fullof people
had come TO their examination, and if those
parents have any thing Of parental love or
honorable pride, they will rejoice that their
children nave such school to 60 TO. Let but
the teachers know that the office they hold is
es,eemed an honorable one, and that the cii-
zens are eyeing them closely, as those upon
whom the reputation and success of our new
system depends, and there will no lack of the
best talents, and the most faithful discharge OF
duty. Let. it not be merely when som e
Dill or resolution respecting the public schools
is before the Council, that they are thought o.
and talked Of, bat as the influence they are ex-
ert is unceasipg in its operation, SO let the
citizens have a constant and walchful eye to
their progress. A good school in practical op
GRAFTON. adds no little to the reputation of a c-
ty. But 20 system can ever become good
one, or be kept long in practical operation,
unless the citizens feel, and publicly mani.
fest an interest in their prosperity.
