THE MODEL TOWN.

a Brother writing from Rockingham, Rich
mond county, says: There is not a male of
eighteen years of age in this place, who is
not ~ uncompromising Son of Temperance
and very few who are not of the same sort in
the entire vicinity We claim Rockingham
to be, therefore, the model Town of the State,
if Lot of the Union! Where is there anoth-
er such? All honor to the good old county
of Richmond-for besides the Division in
Rockingham, there is half-a-dozen scattered
throughout the county.

CHAPTER SECOND.


We will not portray the s%cenein which
Eldred Clark acted his new character.
Suffice it to say it was sufficiently over
done to send the fair lady within a half
hour, with an indignant CLEAN in her eye
and a curl of scorn upon her liz TO the sol
itude of her own room. And when an
hour later her cousin sought her there, she
found her in a state Of excitement far
beyond what she had anticipated. For
a long time Helen essayed to Hay the
:empesti in her soulin vain. Why should
he dare, she would reply, to come thus
into her presence? 10 defle the air she
breathed with his burning pestiIential
breath? To leer upon her in drunken
nillarity, as though she were unworthy
the name of woman? She could forgive
him, never; 40, NEVER! He had degraded
himself so deeply-had turned into the
path which ended in foul, debaslng, bru-
talizing drunkenness. It was revolving
it was horrible. He had hurled the fail
goddess of reason from the lofty pedes
tai it was her province to occupy, and i
he eve designed his intellect to soar
like the fearless eaglet towards the glori
Gus sun, its wing had been shattered BY
an ignoble shaft. And why, oh! why
was man created in Gods own holy i'm
age-stamped with the sublime mora
attributes OF his nature-free to sip tn,
nectar sweets from natures brimmin,
} chalice-tree to explore the varied an
limitless field Of knowledge-or VIII.

And yet, dear Ida, allow me TO as

abroad and that the minds Of the people are
awake to the great interests of that cause: We

AN APPEAL TO OUR FRIENDS.

1t is but six weeks before the present Vol
m of the Spirit of the Age will be brought
to a close. We design commencing the new
volume in an enlarged form and on entirely
new type. Our subscription list has not reached
the prescribed number stipulated for an en-
largement, yet we have determined to increase
its dimensions and so remodel the paper, that
it will contain two-thirds more reading matter
than at present!
In making this announcement, we earnestly
call upon the friends of Temperance and good
morals to aid us in increasing our list-and to
all who desire a cheap Southern Family Paper,
we confidently offer the Spirit of the Age, and
ask them to try it a year, and if they do not
find it an agreeable companion, they are at per-
feet liberty to withdraw their support.
Our present list is double that of any other
paper in the State, clearly evincing the value
in which it is held by the reading public-but
as it is published at half the price of the other
weekly papers, it requires a much larger num-
Der of subscribers TO sustain it.
The new Volume will be characterized with
some striking popular features, instructive, and
entertaining. We have the promise Of pro-
+ auctions from talented graceful writers with
which to adorn our columns. and every effort
will be made to please our readers.
: EThe Temperance cause never more needed
the aid of the Press in North Carolina. Will
4 the members of the Order give us a generous
support, thus enabling us to make war against
# the evils of Intemperance so rife in our beloved
S Commonwealth. We think we may safely

- We must again beg de.inquents to set
tie their accounts Immediately. All who are
in arrears on the first Of September for the
present Volume Of the Age, will be charged
50 a year, their accounts forwarded for collec-

afford TO publish 50 cheap a paper on credit,
and We don't intend to try. - We would
be obliged to all those who know their sub
scription will expire with the close of this VOL
ume, to forward US their dollar before the new
one begins, and save us the trouble of having
to give them the red mark.
~ After the 1st of September we shall
not send our paper longer than the time for
which it has been paid. The red mark will be
placed on them four weeks previous to the ex-
piration Of their subscription year, and if the
renewal is not forwarded in the four weeks. the
paper will be discontinued. We are driren to
this course by the treatment we have received
at the hands Of mary subscribers, who have
allowed their paper to 60 with the red mark for
months. and then returned one for diseontin-
uance, without paying a cent for the three, six
or nine months over the time for which they
had paid. We have been defrauded out of
several hundred dollars in this way, and we

Newton, in this county, on Sunday night
The sale Of liquor, prohibited by the munich
pal regulation, German was found guilty
and heavily fincd. DepredatioDs were sub
sequently committed upon property, COM
plant was made. ond suspicion rested upon
the German. A meeting Of the citizens was
held, and all Germans ordered to quit the
place, which resulted in q riot; bat was,
however, temporarily suppressed.
The Germansi in the surrounding towns are
taking sides with their countrymen. In this
city two hundred Germans held an indigna.
ton meeting, in consequence ofhaving been
fined for desecrating the Sabbath by gamL-
hing, singing through the streets, &c.
They dlsclaim ollreigion and laws, & de-
clare that every man has right to do as he
pleasea in this country; also, that with them
their national hug had preference over all
Others. This movement is opposed by Ger
