Licking County.

The Democratic party of this county
have nominated an out-and- out Maine Law
ticket. This is an important movement,
and will have a powerful effect upon all
political parties, especially as it is the home
of Hon. VIM. MEDILL, the Democratic can
didate for Governor. The just and honor
able course of the Democrats of Licking,
in complying with the known and oft re-
peated wishes of the people, is worthy the
highest praise, and will be hailed with Joy
by every lover of the cause in the State.
We hope this move will have the effect
to open the eyes of all the old fogies in the
land, whether of the Whig or Democratic
party, to the important fact that the people
the rulers and sovereigns of the land--have
determined, this time, to contraband forever
the traffic in Intoxicating beverages, and
that they can not be swerved from their
determination by promises, or appeals to
party predictions. They have too often
been deluded, honey-fuggled and bam-
boozled," by the wire -pullers of either
party, whose only object was elevatiOn~to
places of honor and profit. That day has
gone by, and we trust forever. Candidates
must stand upon their merits the whisky
prop has been removed.
What will the Enquirer say of this move
ment? "

Portage County.

We have before US the proceedings of the
" Peoples Mass Convention" Of this county.
It was glorious turn. out, and Maine Law
ticket was unanimously nominated The
most perfect union and harmony prevailed.
After the nominations were made the Com
mittes on resolutions reported series of
important resolutions, for the publication of
which we regret we have no room. They dis
coursed the right sort Of music, and evinced
determined spirit. The meeting was ad-
dressed in the afternoon and evening by the
Rev. Mr.. Hale, Of Connecticut, now in the
employ of the State Executive Committee,
in support Of the Maine Law, presenting in
masterly manner, the legal view of the
question, and setting aside by unanswerable
arguments, all the objections heretofore
urged against it, by the rumselling party,
The speech Of the Reverend gentleman is
said to have been the ablest and most con-
vinciDg ever heard on the Maine Law,
Our young and talented friend, J. O. Devin,
Of Mt Vernon, was on hand, and favored
the Meeting with an excellent speech. He
is young in the cause, but he is hard to beat.
He is just the kind Of man that we would
like to see in the Ohio Legislature, as a
representative from old Knox. He has the
talent, energy and indOmitable perse-
verance to carry him through. There is
nothing to prevent the election Of the ticket
put forth, as every body in Portage appears
to be in favor of the Maine Law.

Greene County.

Welearnb by agentleman from this county,
that the Wings have nominated DR.. Greene,
of jamestown, as their candidate for the
Legislature. DR.. G. is an efficient and re-
liable temperance man. The friends Of the
Maine Law desire no better man to vote for
DR.. Wright has also been nominated
candidate for the State Senate, by the same
party, for the District composed of the
counties of Greene, Clinton and Fayette.
He is, also, warm friend of the Maine
Law, and both candidates will, without
doubt, be triumphantly elected.
The Democratic party made an attempt
to nominate a candidate for the Legislature,
and not being able to settle the question
whether the candidate should be in favor
Of or opposed to the Maine Law, the Con-
ventiOn adjourned, and, SO far as that party
is concerned, the election will be suffered
to go by default. As yet, DR.. Greene has
no opposition.

Highland County.

We extract the following from the Ripley
Bee, a most excellent paper, and warm
friend OF the Maine Law:
"We are pleased to see that the editor of
the Gazette claims that =" the Democracy Of
Highland are right on this question, and
that they will place in nomination for the
various offices, sound and reliable men"
He further says Let our Wing friends
pursue the same course, and the interests of
the temperance cause will be promoted, no
matter which party will be successful. -
This is the true policy for all parties-and
we say Amen to it"

Brown County.

We extract the following resolutions from
the proceedings published in the Ripley Bee,
of spirited convention held in Russelville,
on the 18th inst.
"ResOlufd, That we will vote for no can
didate, for either House Of the Legislature,
who Is not publicly known to be the advo-
cate of such law.
ResObved, That for the purpose Of ascer-
tanning the views of candidates for Senator
and Representative, who may be brought
before thepeople of this county committee
be appointed to interrogate each Of them in
reference to their views on this subject.
ResOlUed, That committee Of three be
appointed by the meeting to be called the
Temperance Central Committee Of Brown
county. Ul
G. Baird, Doct. s. Bearce, and j. T. Nor
gan were appointed said committee.
ResotUed, That the President appoint a
committee of one in each township, in this
county, to collect funds for the purchase of
Temperance documents and other purposes
connected with the cause, and that they
pay over their collections to the central
committee to be disbursed as said commit
tee or a majority of them may order"
They have appointed working commit

action. The last resolution is very i'm

We have before us the proceeding Of a
spirited meeting held at Toledo, on the16th
inst, Mr.. Brigham, the Mayor of the city,
presiding. The meeting was addressed by
Bros. Perrigo, Raymond and Scott Of Tole-
do, and White and Klink, of RichfSld, with
a spirit and enthusiasm, highly gratifying
to the friends present A committee was
appointed to raise the funds to meet the
assessment Of the State Executive Com
mittee and initiatory steps taken to secure
a permanent and efficient organisation.
They have gone to work with determina-
ton to make their mark, and if they con-
tinue as they have begun, a triumph awaits
them.

A brother informs us that the Democrats
have made their nominations in this county,
and that all save one are opposed to the
Maine Law. The candidate for the Legis-
lature is Of the whisky stripe The Wings
have not nominated their ticket. If they
fail to comply with the wishes of the peo'
pie, an independent ticket will be the con-
sequence, and God grant it abundant sue
cess.

ofimpudence towards you, wasn't it?
But It's dog eat dog with you; we

Of the 'Enquirer," we quote the fol-
lowing paragraphs from two different
articles in that paper:
"'While we are sincerely and warmly in
favor of the temperance reform as a moral
movement in which field of exertion il has
accomplished great deal of good, and
which is its only appropriate sphere, we are
utterly opposed to the new direction in
which its Over.zealOus and unwise friends
are attempting TO give it,"
rs. F. CARY, ofthis county, in commune
cation addressed to Mr. LoNawoRTH through
the "Commercial," )" says the advocates Of. the
Maine Law in Ohio include the native wine
Of this city and county among the liquors
which they intend to prescribe, and the
manufacture and sale of which they will
punish OF course Has fanaticism ever
any limit ?"
Now, do the sentiments embodied
in those clauses accord, with each
other ? Does not the latter statement
look very much as though he would
feel enormously vexed to see the
"good creature" wine, prescribed
from our State ! And yet he pro-
fesses to be sincerely and warmly in
favor of the temperance reform, as a
moral movement" He strings out a
long article on the tyranny of the
Maine Law, and compares it, unjustly,
to the Alien and Sedition laws that
once existed in our government. We
are not surprised that he is opposed
to those laws, especially the latter,
for were it in existence now, it would
be very apt to wind up the machine
which he so often uses to grind out
the wormwood Of calumny upon the
heads Of honest men. But he talks as
though this were the first civil infrac
ton ever attempted to be practiced
upon the natural rights of the citizens
of this country; as if he did not know
that the very principle on which our
government is based is, that each in
dividual, on becoming member there
of, surrenders up a portion Of his
natural rights, and receives in return
the protection Of its laws. This is
absolutely necessary for the *ell-being
of society. In state of nature, every
man would have a right to murder,
rob, steal, gamble, counterfeit, &c.
without the restraint of law; but when
he merges into the compact of civil
government, these rights are imme-
diately forfeited. So we claim it
should be with the right to traffic in
intoxicating liquors. No evil ever ex-
listed in this country that threatened
so seriously the welfare of society !;
and still the Enquirer" maintains
that it would be arbitrary to arrest it
by law. He asserts that it would be
just as proper to "pass laws against
extravaganza in dress, or household
furniture-against the use Of tobacco,
--forbidding the use of tea and coffee"
&c. But we contend that there is
scarcely an analogy between the two
cases, for the latter is but very slight
private or public misfortune at most,
