when the war used to be carried into AZ
rica' against old Alcohol. The meeting

just embarking in LIES struggles; they
commence right in the glorious work and

faithful 10 the end IL il be true, as was
stated by one Of the speakers. and We do
not doubt il. that many of the young men
of Richmond, meet together in some Of
the shops or stores u, the dead hour OF
night. for the purpose Of drinking and
carousing, it is indeed high time for every
iemperance-man and woman, young and
old,-every lover Of religion. morals, good
order and sobriety, to bestir themselves;
and especially for those Of our young
men who do not partake in these carousals,
to give timely warning to those Of their
own age, who arc thus tampering with the
spirit of evil;-to beware Of the intoxica-
ting cup, ere an appetite is contracted

drunkards. To our young friends, who
are in the habit Of thus meeting and
worse than idly spending their evenings.

For the Palladium,

FOR tne IallduIuH.
Messrs. Editors:-Permit me through
the medium Of your paper, TO call atten-
ton to the course pursued by certain
portion Of our community in relation TO
the cause Of temperance. ! refer to the
clergy Of our city 1t is well known to al
most oil Of our citizens, that we have a
Division Of the Sons Of Temperance es-
tablished here, which meets weekly; and,
also, Society Of Washngtonians, which
meets semi monthly. 1t is also a we'll
known fact that there has no, been, at any
time within the last six months, one min
lister Present-not one (who by his sacred
calling would be SO suitable) to implore
the Divine blessing to attend our humble
efforts in the cause OF temperance, which
is synonymous with that Of religion.
l do not wish TO detract anything from
the morality or pety Of our clergy, for, in
this respect, they stand above reproach.-
Neither would | wish to insinuate that
they indulge in, or encourage the use OF.
intoxicating drinks.-far from it. But |
do wish to say, that their position in soci-
ety. enables them to do more towards the
furtherance Of any great moral reform,
than any other class Of citizens. Nor
have they exerted that influence in the ad-
vancement Of this great moral reform.
which the cause itself and society de-
mands. believe that our ministers are
temperance men at heart; yet, by their
indifference, their influence is on the side
Of in,emperance; and am sorry to say
ton, Pervades the clergy Of our city.
Were the moral influence brought to
bear, as i; could and should be, on the
side Of temperance by the ministers ofthis
place, the cause would thereby receive an
impetus which no exertion of private citi-
zens could give it; and which. united with
. rcdoubled energy Of action by our tenn
rerance men. (Which would by that means
be called out.) would result in the defea,
Of our enemies, and the triumph Of our
cause.
What is the duty of the clergy in this
respect! Is it TO say: so and do SO and
sol think not But in all great moral
movements. they are 10 lead and point out
the way, and say come on. brethren, we
are in the path Of duty
The cause of temperance is so nearly
allied to that Of religion, that where intern
perancc prevails to any great extent, re-
hgion must die; consequently were our
clergy willing to WELD their influence in
the active support OF this cause, they
would be bene6s,ing their fellow-men, and
serving their Masser-who is Christ.

now all withdrawn, and Canada is left with mag
nifcent canals and public works, without any
thing, comparatively speaking, to do, and heavy
debt, the interest on which is raised by indirect
taxation, and is drained out of the country.
As another evidence of the injurious effect
which this lack of confidence has had upon the
prosperity of Canada, the Independent declares,
that Canadian stocks totally unsaleabe in Eng
land, while the stocks of several American States
are at premium of from to per cent. Ano-
Their fact mentioned is that during the last fifteen
or eighteen years the several State governments
have borrowed, without difficulty, 100000, OOOin
England. Railway companies in the United
States have also borrowed millions, while the Ca
nadians cannot borrow dollar.
The same cause.-The unsettled political condi-
ton of the counry-has driven by far the most nu-
merous and wealthy class of emigrants from the
British Isles to the American States. According
to statement in the London Economist the emil
grafton from the United Kingdom to the North
American Colonies from the year 1888 to 1847,
both inclusive, amounted to 372,886; the number
Of emigrants to the United States from Great Bri-
tain during the same period was 552,205. During
the present year 100000 have emigrated to the
States, and only $4,000 have emigrated to British
America. But this proportion would be greatly
increased if we had any accurate account of the
number of those who went during the same period
from the Colonies to the neighboring States, as
compared with those who left the latter for the
former. Such account would show three to one
in favor of the States.

THE LEGISLATURE.

We insert in another column, a complete list
legates, which bodies assemble this day in regular
session. 1t will be seen that there is a Democratic
majority in each, large enough for all practical
purposes, and we do not at present think of any
topic which is likely to excite dissenson. Mr.
Hopkins, we presume, will be reelected Speaker
of the House. DR.. Scott, the late President of
the Senate, being no longer member the majority
will have to bestow the honor of presiding upon
some other gentleman We have heard Mr.. Ty-
Ter, Mr.. Dennis and Mr.. Rives mentioned as the
Senators chiefly thought of in connection with
the vacant compliment. Rumour hints, too, that
Mr.. A. G. Pendleton and the Cerberus of the
Treasury have hackers for the Speakersbip of the
House.
1nasmuch as the last General Assembly, at its
long extra session, revised the whole jurisprudence
of the State, it might be supposed that there will
not be occasion, this winter, for great deal of
law-making. But practical experience of the CO.
piousness of Legislative invention, may well sug-
gest some uncertainty as to the shortness of the
session.
We shall keep our readers regularly advised
of the general course of the proceedings, design
ing to throw into daily reports more of the
spirit than of the forms of what may be said and
done.
We shall publish the Governors Message at the
earliest practicable moment.

IHE PROGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES AND
WESTERN CANADA.-The Toronto Independent
an annexation Journal, compares the aggregate
emigration from Great Britain to the United
states and the Canadian Provinces, during seye.
RAJ years, as a conclusive proof that the United
states are IN much more settled and healthy po-
ntical condition than the neighboring provinces.-
Inc independent states that western New York
contains $4,000 square miles, and that western
Canada contains $4,000 square miles, In 1890
tne population OF the former was only 1881, and
OF the latter 10000. The population of the two
Is now exactly equal, Notwithstanding the i'm
mense disparity in size. Ohio contains 40. 600
square miles, and has increased in the same pe-
Rod from 3,000to 100000 souls. From these
facts the Canadian Journal arrives at the conch-
sion, which 1t holds 10 be unmpeachable that had
western Canada been State of the Union from
the time her population would have entitled her to
admission, she would now have possessed popu-
latlon and resources equal to Ohio
"A glance at the political history of Canada for
the last twenty-five or thirty years will show that
1t has been almost constantly in state of political
oisquletude, attended by frequent acts of violence
and oloodshed and, on one occasion, by breakinp
out into open rebellion. A principal reason for
the progress which it is acknowledged the Cana
das nave been made since the rebellion, the Inde-
pendent says was the benefit they derived from
dliferentlal duties, estimated to be worth over
y 100000 year. The Canadas also derived
revenue OF from $3,O00,O00 to $4,OOO00O annu-
any, from the outlay necessarily made for the sup
port OF large military establishments -now re.
auced to one-lourth its former force. The effect
d these expenditures was to stimulate all kinds of
industrial pursuits. These stimulating causes are
