ENCOURAGEMENT AND ExHoRTA-
TION.

4lO4b /
A review of the past history of our Order in
North Carolina, will discover much to e%ncour-
age every Son Of Temperance to persevere in
our labors of love; while it will also unfold
many salutary lessons of instruction for our
guidance in future. The contrast between our
two years since and at the present
time, cannot fail to attract the attention of all
conversant with the progress of the Order in
this State. Then, doubt and gloom filled the
minds of some of the most ~sanguine: predic-
tons were made that our days were numbered,
and that ere another year had rolled by, our
history would be concluded. Now, the " morn
ing has come"-these anxious fears have been
dissipated-and HOPE encourages the heart of
the true Son of Temperance, as with zeal he
girds on the temperance armour, determined
to carry on this warfare until death shall close
his career, or until complete triumph shall rem
der further exertions unnecessary.
But, Brethren, our day has not yet come
our mission has not yet been fulfilled. When
Intemperance can number no more victims
when there shall be no more abodes of wretch
edness-no heart-broken wives-no unhappy
parents-when the children and youth of the
land shall be safe from the " all pervading de-
stroyer"-when Temperance, Benevolence,
and Brotherly Love-" shall everywhere pre-
vail then, and not till then, may our Divisions
surrender their charters, and our bodies no lon
ger convene.
The permanency of our institution, under
God, depends upon our faithfulness to the sol
emn obligations we have voluntarily assumed
and who would falter in such a cause? The
Z" cause of all mankind"-it is emphatically oul
countrys cause. 1t is a truism, often asserted
and enlarged upon, that the perpetuity of
Government depends upon the morality of it
citizens. In a country where all power is de
rived from the people-and where the boastet
freedom and universally of the elective fran
chise brings this power into action-the moral
ity of the citizens become of such vital impor
lance, that he who does not ~strenuously exer
himself for its promotion, is a traitor to the bes
interests of the nation-recreant to his duty a
a man-rcsponsible for bis actions to his fellov
man and to his God.
The influences now exerted are to be fe
through succeeding generations. Languag
t cannot express the tremendous responsible
of the present generation-their imperative dr
= ty to pervade every community with the prir
ciples of true and pure morality. The Orde
of the Sons of Temperance, stands pre-eminen
as a most powerful organization, if its prime
: pies are carried out in their purity and exec
, lency, to effect this end.
