their second anniversary on the 23d INST.
in very appropriate manner. Several
speakers having been invited. aud the ser.
vices Of the Athens Brass Band procured,
rs was expected, n great many persons were
present. The weather being favorable. the
procession formed, and with the ladies',
marched, accompanied by the Band, to q
woodland near town, where every necessn-
ry arrangement had been made for their re-
cep,ion The speakers that had been invited
having failcd to attend, addresses were de.
livercd by DR.. A. W. HODGE and Rev. S.
WooDs, in n manner that gave satisfaction
to all. They reasoned with the moderate
dram drinker, Of the danger to which he
was exposed. and endeavored to show to
the drunkard that there still was hope for
him, that though he had degraded himself
by the use and abuse OF strong drink, there
wero those whose sole airn was to restore
him to his family. to soce,y--in a word to
himself ngain:-tO implant within him
spirit of Love and Friendship towards his
fellow man, and bring him to feel that he
lives not alone for himself.

the necessity Of chersllng feelings of love
and friendship to The brethren, that peace
and harmony might accompany their deib-
eralions, thus working solely for the cause
of Temperance ond the prosperity Of the
Order. From the marked attention which
was manifest during tho addresses, have
no doubt but they had au'ary influence
on the minds Of the hearers. The Band as
usual wero not behind in their performances.
hut with their soul stirring music added
life and animation to the exercises. 1T
night, according to previous arrangements,
they gave a Concert for the benefit Of the
Division. which was well attended, the
Court house being filled After the Concert,

Thus passed the 23d, and we hope not
without arousing ufresh those feelings
which were lying dormunt in the breasts Of
a good many Sons, on the glorious cause Of
Temperance.
May the cause continue to prosper until !
