1t is fact well established that large
proportion of the paupersm and crime with
which our country is afflicted is the result,
either directly or remotely, of intemperance.
The observation of all intelligent men, here
and elsewhere, leaves no doubt that nine
tenths of the persons who fill our prisons
and almhouses are themselves inebriates, or
the offspring of incorporate parents. The
Rev. JARED CURTIS, who has been Chaplain
OF the Massachusetts State Prison for twen-
ty years, stated few evenings since, at
temperance meeting in Boston, that three
fourtLs of the go inmates at present in the
institution with which he is connected, and
of all other criminals in the prisons of that
State, had been in the use of intoxicating
drinks.-BdH. finer.
