ssEg- Below will be found some OF the pro
ceedings ofthe Quarterly Temperance Coun
ell Of Jefferson and Harrison counties, which
held its quarterly session in this place on the
Sd inst. We always take pleasure in pub
fishing the proceedings of all meetings,
which are calculated to do good, But we
cannot imagine what good would come out
of the eresolution that we have left out. 1t
is,the same one that we told our temperance
friends last April that we would not publish
again. If any person is dissatisfied because
We will not publish such language, they will
have to remain SO. We publish the remain
der Of the proceedings with pleasure.

Organized by calling A. G. Turner, Esq
70 the chair, and appointing j. P. Wood
Secretary-proceedings Of last meeting
read and approved.
u aDr.S Thompson, of Harrisville, ex-
planned that all friends of Temperance &
al Temperance organizations have full
privilege to take part and vote in this
Council.
On motion, committee of FIVE, consist
ing of DR.. 5, Thompson, Joshua Adams,
Aaron Hott, J. V. Smily, and NJ. McCon-
nell, were appointed to report resolutions
for the consideration of the meeting.
vi During the absence of the committee,
Rev. d. Mitchell entertained the audience,
consisting in part Of goodly number of
ladies', With some very excellent remarks.
= The committee made the following re-
port. which, after spirited discussion,
was unanimously adopted:
RESOLVED, That this meeting approves
the resolutions passed by the last meeting
of this Council, held at Harrisvile, April
Sd,
ResolUed, That they be re-published as
apart of the proceedings of this meeting.
ss Resolved, That the experience, obser-
yation and reflection of the past, have
deepened our conviction of the soundness
of the principles and the wisdom of these
measures by the promulgation and prose
cution of which, have been hitherto la
boring to promote the temperance cause,
and that we now re-afirm our belief that
it is at once the policy and duty of all
temperance men and women to push on
this great enterprise with unfinching zeal
aHd energy,
Resolued, That as religion is the strong
est element of the human character, all
reforms, to be thorough and paramount,
are and must be based upon it, by the ad-
yocates and friends Of the same, and car
ried forward in its spirit; and such we
claim to be the foundation and spirit of
the temperance reformation.
RESOLVED, That all good citizens are
bound by their universal moral ohliga-
tions to be temperate men and women at
home, abroad, in the church, and in all
the relatioms which they sustain to us
and their fellow beings.
Resolved, That it is one of the duties of
individual philanthropists, to labor un-
ceasingiy, and untiringly for the suppress
sion Of the traffic in ardent spirits, be-
cause it is the prolific source of intem-
perance, and all its attendant consequen-
ces.
RESOLVED, That no man has moral
right or legal right to do as he pleases in
retailing as beverage, ardent spirits,
though bought with his own money
ResoIved, That the guilt Of a wrong ac-
ton is proportionate to the light and
knowledge against Which It is committed,
and God, having by His Providence fully
reyesled' through experience and discuss
sions, the sinfulness Of the traffic in ardent
spirits, there is no longer cloak or ex-
cuse for continuing therein. These are
not the days Of ignorance, in which the
sin can be winked at, but all men every.
where, are called upon to foresake such
In ungodly business.
Rssolged, Thatwe as temperance men
9hd women viii not cease our efforts in
the temperance reform until our objects
pe accomplished, and we pledge por- !
lion Of or time and money TO carry out,
