The TEMPERANCE CAUSE, we are plea
sed to say, is receiving an accelerated
force bv the advent Of the Rt. Rev. Faith
er Mathew in this city. His presence
and worldwide renown has awakened
AN attention To the importance of the
subject, that The presence of no less dis
,inguished advocate could have aroused;
and his position, by country and religion,
gives him an influence 10 do good, that
others equally devoted do not possess
That his mission 10 this city will be at
tended with many happy and gratifying
results. We have present evidence. Ma
ny inyeterate drinkers, as well as many
who were no. drinkers al all, have taken
the pledge Now, suppose that out of
the hundreds who flock to him, and take
the pledge, he reclaims only ten per cent.
of the whole, who can estimate the hap
piness, the joy, and the benefits, which
will flow from the reclamation Of this
number?
The mission of Father Mathew is
one that is purely philanlhropic. II is
to do good TO all, irrespective of religious
creeds or sectional prejudices. There
is nothing in his discourses or his efforts
that in the slightest degree can initiate
against the creeds of other denominations
of Christians. His mission is not to
make proselytes to the church of which
he is an honored member, but 10 insiil,
extend and spread wide into all classes,
creeds and communities, self-con,rol
which eUery one-Protestan as well as
Catholic--Jew and Gentile-admits to
be essential to true religion, as well as
the proper fulfllment of every social and
political virtue, viz: Temperance and
moderation, and entire freedom from all
irrational excitement.
A Missionary, in SO good, pure and
beneficial work-a purpose which ey-
cry sect and sectarian can applaud, assisl
and urge onward-ought, in our judg-
ment, 10 be met with some public wel-
come from those who, like him, are enga-
ged in the same cause. Should not the
Temperance Societies and associations
of the city avail themselves of the pres.
ence Of this Apostle in their cause, 10
extend the circle of their influence? II
general usefulness and wish to reclaim
all the incorporate be really their object,
they certainly will not lose This opportu-
nifty TO bring to their aid the influence
and assistance of one to whom the civ.
ilized world pays the tribute of worth
and disinteresled purposes. - Mo. Rep1b.
