In compliance with resolution passed by
the Cumberland Division, permit us to give
your readers brief account Of the celebra-
ton Of American Independence and partic-
ularly the part acted by the Sons of Tenn
perance.
We formed a procession at our Division
Room, evans brass band from Fayetteville
were in attendance) we marched down one
of the principal streets to receive the citizens
and the Orator of the day-thence we re-
paired to the church, and after prayer, the
Declaration of Independence was read by
Mr.. S. d. Pipkin and beautiful and thrill
ling Grafton was delivered by Mr.. John A.
Spears.
Immediately after the Grafton, Miss Jane
Ayera, in behalf ofthe young Ladies of the
community, presented the Division with a
copy of the HOLY BIBLE, accompanied by q
neat and tasty address, which was responded
to by Bro. r. H. Whitaker, in acceptance Of
the Holy volume in behalf of the Division
Wesend You copies Of the addresses and BEG
place in your columns.
After some extemporaReou3 remarks by
two Of the Sons, the exercises were brought
to a close and the benediction was pronoun
ced by the Chaplain of the day.
Our cause is onward-fve hopeful young
men were added to our Order on that day
aud we trust many more will soon give Us
their names and their influence.
You have our best wishes for your goodIy
enterprise. Yours in J.. P. e F.

The very paper using this superlative-
ly bitter language concerning Law
which future generations will rise up and
call blessed, purports to be "devoted to
all the interests of North Carolina;" and
yet its influence is thrown in favor of
that cause which has been the fruitful
source ofmurder, theft, poverty, disgrace,
and everything else that is mean and de-
testable. The scent of"old Baldface whis-
key" is more grateful TO the smell Of
these gentlemen. than the balmy breezes
Of temperance, which have their origin
in Maine.
In conclusion, Mr.. Editor, have a
suggestionllo make: An effort is being
made togsstve the Southern Advocate,
in order 20 wage war against the Sons:
Now let Messrs. Wiley and Cook lend a
helping hand by uniting their paper with
that, and instead of being ''devoted to
all the interests" of all the drunkards in
North Carolina, let it take more ample
range and exert its "philantbropic" efforts
in behalf of all the drunkards in the
Southern country. The classic pen of
Mr.. Wiley, and the inspiration of the
Priest of Bacchus, might be successful
perhaps, in restoring Drunkenness TO its
pristine beauty and loveliness. Having
succeeded in this great work they would
be consoled by the reflection that they had
succeeded in filling the grave with many
a drunkard, broken the heart of many a
fond wife, made many orphans, filled ma
nyjails, and made many inmates for poor
houses. They might, at the close of life,
look upon such scene as this, and cry
out in triumph, "These are our trophiesl"
"These are the legitimate fruits of our
toll in life, and they forsake us not in
death,-we have done a great work.

Mr.. EDITOR. Although I belong to no
Division of the Sons of Temperance, |
was much pleased at your remarks on the
rticle which appeared a short time ago
in the "Weekly POST concerning the
Maine Law. The Editors of that sheet
would be considered the peculiar gusrdi-

We see them giving "aid and comfort
to that cause which has swept like des-
olating tide over the face of society, car
rying before it some of the brightest In.
tellects that have ever adorned her coun.
sells. I have been a subscriber to the
Post since its origin, but have long since
come to the conclusion that it was /;
"Weakly" affair; still was disposed Il

WARMS S'sRINGS. n. c.

Mr.. Lanaman sSBook Of Travels furnishes
US with the annexed description the Warm!
Springs of North Carolina
These springs are thirty-six miles from
Asheville, and within six of the Tennessee
llne. There are several of them, the lar
gest being covered with a house, and diYi-
ded into two equal apartments,s either one
OF which IS sufficiently large to allow of 8
swim. The Temperature of the water is los
degrees, and it is a singular fact, ihat rainy
weather has tendency to increase the heat,
but it never varies more than couple of
degrees. All the springs are directly on the
southern margin Of the French Broad; the
wa.er is clear as crystal, and SO heavy that
eytIf a child may be thrown into Il witisi;4.
tie danger Of being drowned. As bever-
age, the water is quite palatable, and it is
said that some people can drink a number
of quarts per day, and vet experience none
but beneficial effects. The diseases which it
is said to cure are palsy, rheumatism and Gu
taneous affections. The Warm Springs are
annually visited by large number of fash
ionable and sickly people, from all the South
en States, and the proprietor has comforta-
BILE accommodations for two hundred and
fifty people. His principal building is of
brick, and the ballroom is $50 feet long
Music, dancing, flirting, riding, bathing, fish
ing, scenery-hunting, bowling and reading,
are all practiced here to an unlimited extent;
but, what is more exciting than all these
pleasures put together, is the rare sport Of
deer-huntinr'
