indebted to Maine, not for discovering a
prncipIe, but for ascertaining the proper
way to apply it.
The present law Of that State, they find
easier of execution than their formeHones
There is no chance for reaction. The
drunken rowdies cannot, now, assemble
in the olurking places Of the villases,
and drink and swear, and swear and
drink, infame their patriotism, and pre-
pare to assert their '6loodPirehassd2 priv
ilege Of getting drunk. They mustS row,
think soberly, and many of them, after
the liquor is gone and they are in Their
right minds swsar that all is right. If
4hey are called into court, theynow swear
that liquor is nuisance, and thernan
that made them drunk, an outlaw.
Let determination be the watchword
with every friend Of the Temperance Re-
form-away with the liquor! 1t has no
real, sober friends, and every cask de-
stroyed, multiplies the advocates for
destruction.

" Qui cbrium ludifcat, LaudH abscntem."

Whoever laughs at the drunkard, in
jures the absent. This saying is ascribed
to Publius Lyrus, and is full of meaning.
Whenever we see boys or men sporting
with a poor inebriate, we think of this
truth. The effect of liquor is to dethrone
the reason, drown the memory, pervert
the Judgment, or in other words, to make
the man absent himself, and give up his
humanity. Horace said the king was
wise, who refused to select a friend, un-
til he had piled him well with wine, for
when intoxicated, his soul would be un-
masked, and he could read his real char.
acter. This thought does not correspond
with the one at the commencement of
our article, nor does it accord with our
own experience. The kind hearted faith
er, the indulgent and devoted husband,
under the majdening influence of the
bowl, often becomes cruel and despi-
cable creature. A perfect revolution is
wrought in the whole man by liquor-he
is counterfeited, disguised humanity, the
genuine, real man is away from home.
With what indulgence, then, should soci-
ETY. regard the conduct of the limbs, and
arms, and tongue, when the thinking
principle, the mind, is absent. How su-
premeIy infamous is that scoundrel who
will aid and abet in the work Of dislodg-
ing the intellect of his neighbor, and then
say let every fellow take care of him
self" Reader, remember, when you see
the bloated, senseless form that lies by the
road side, that this is the body of fellow
being-that it belongs TO an intelligent,
immortal being. Do not laugh, rather
weep over the fallen: gather up the shat
tered wreck and try, by kindness and
love, to win the wanderer back to home
and heaven.

whnt ahall be aone rext7

This is an interesting and important
inquiry for the friends Of Temperance in
Ohio Just now, and we confess ourselves
perplexed to find an unobiectionable an
swer. Whether is it best to circulate
new petitions, to be sent to our Legisla-
ture at its adjourned session, or be con-
tent to let them take the responsibility Of
refusing or granting the prayer of the
100000 who have already made their
viii known? Is there any hope of secu-
ring any prohibitory law from that body,
under any circumstances Would the
names of million make any impression
on them?
If it is best to memorialize this body
again, preparations should be simulta-
neously and systematically made to can
vass the entire State, and furnish every
friend Of the law with an opportunity OF
signing his name. We apprehend that
such work would do the laborers more
good by keeping up the temperance
spirit than it would the Legislature. We
have but little faith in the action Of the
maiority nf that body. under any circum-
aesS
Would it not be better, in the present
state of affairs, to disseminate temper
ance intelligence--circulate tracts-have
public addresses, and make preparations
to defeat, at the next election, those who
have resisted the popular will, and elect
such as will obey it? Such men as
Ezekiel, of Montgomery, Gest, of Greene,
O'Neal, of Perry, and all the members
from Hamilton county must be permitted
to stay at home, and their places sup
Piled with gentlemen of very different
principles, before success will be GER
tain.
We do not feel prepared, however. to
indicate the course (even if it was ouI
province 10 do so,) which ought to be ia
ken at this hour. We write rather to in
duce an expression of opinion from ouI
friends throughout the State.

Grand Temple of Ohio

This body is now in session, at Foster
Hall, in this city. The attendance is un-
usually large. A considerable amount OF
business, torthe benefit Of the Order, will
be transacted. We learn from the G.

in founsbing condition. In our next,
we will endeayor to give a short synopsis
Of the proceedings. On Wednesday,

Temple, and from the number of tickets
sold, we presume they had quite a plea

The Illustrated Maine Liquor Law.

Last week We stated that the pictures
composing this beautiful illustration, were
nearly completed. Since then we have
been shown impressions of three of the
five pictures. We will endeavor to give
our readers an idea of what they are:
Picture No. is a correct likeness of
Neal Dow, drafting the Maine Law. Those
who have had the pleasure of seeing this
distinguished philanthropist, pronounce it
an excellent likeness. This picture, with
out the remaining four, is worth the price
asked for the whole. Size, ~ inches by
81.
Picture No. 2 represents members of Leg
islalures looping off the branches of the
fatal Upas tree, and piHching the tail of the
skunk. Those who had the pleasure of
hearing Gen. Cary's speech at the State
Convention in Columbus, in February last,
in which the laughable anecdote about the
skunk was so forcibly compared TO the ac-
ton of the Ohio Legislature, in relation to
its laws regulating the sale of Intoxicating
liquors, can form very good idea of the
merits of this picture. Every time an at
tempt is made by the friends of temperance
to eradicate the evil, our lawmakers lop of
a branch of the fatal tree, and pinch the tail
Of the skunk, leaving its Jody untouched.
In the distance two figures are seen ap-
preaching, with uplltcd axes, as if some
thing was to be done that would strike at
the vital parts of the tree and skunk. This
picture is admirably designed and execu-
It'd, and shows, at a glance, the past his
tory of Legislative enactmcnts against the
evils of intemperance.
Picture No. ) represents different course
Of action by the makers. A great
change has taken place. The greatest dis
covery of the Nineteenth century has been
put into practical and successful operation
The fatal tree is being dug up by the roots
leaving not even a shoot to tell where ouct
it stood, spreading its poison and desola.
ton in every quarter. The old skunk, that
had his tail so often pjnched for his mis-.
deeds, is upon his buck in Il Ialiing condition,
having been STINT in a oitaL Dart. This pic
ture illustrates the workings Of glorious
Law of Maine.
Pictures Nos md ) will be described in
our next when We will have an impression
from the Enrravpr.
