THE 9TH AT CHAPEL HILL.

Mr.. EDITOR Whilst the good people Of
Raleigh were celebrating the glorious Fourth,
with all the 'pomp, pride, and circumstances
attendant gpon such an occasion, the citizens
of Our little village" were not idle. The
day was ushered in by thefring of guns, and
the hosting ofthe stars and stripes over the
drug store. And by the time Aurora's rosy
beams had illumined the eastern horizon,
quitea crowd had collected to witness the fes-
tivities of the dav.
At half past eleven o'clock, a procession
was formed and marched up to the College
Chapel. The exercises for the day were open
ed by the Rev. F. NJ Hubbard, with prayer.
The Mecklenburg Declaration Of Indepen-
dence was then read by Mr.. Andrew Mickle,
who was followed by Mr.. A. B. Vaughan who
| read the National Declaration. The Orator
for the day, Mr. VIM. III. Spencer of Hyde,
then addressed the assembly. And we can
say, with truth, that we never heard more
| beautiful, concise, or neater Fourth of July
| Grafton in our life. 1t abounded less in the
old and hackneyed expressions generally used
on such occasions and on the whole was a
finished production.
The Grafton was followed by an " Address
on Odd-FeIowship," by Mr.. Joseph B. Lu
cas- of Chapel Hill. lie gave US history o
the formation, rise and progress of the indie
pendent Order of Odd-Fellows. He explain
ed to us in clear and forcible manner, th'
benefits that society generally derived iron
the /" Order" He showed clearly the preiu
dices existing in the minds of many agains
the Order as q secret society. And, on tn
whole, it was production we'll worthy o
the noble Order of which he is a member
After the exercises in the Chapel had closed
procession was again formed and marche
, down to Mr.. thompson on Columbia stree
where delicious repast awaited them. Wit

In conformity with call of the County
Temperance Convention which assembled in

pie of Northampton convened in said place
on the 4th ultimu to consider a series of Res
olutions which were referred to this Conven-
tion. On motion of9John B. OdGtn, the Rev.
William uardee was calledsto thesChafr, and
William II. Garris appointed Secretary
The people who were opposed to the Resolu-
tons were invited to speak and vote in oppo-
sition to them, in order that they night be
fairly considered and voted upon, both as to
their merits and demerits. The reading of the
Resolutions was called for whereupon DR..
John w. Foster moved that they be consider
ed and voted upon separately, which was
unanimously adopted. Dr. John ". Foster
then read the first resolution with a motion
that the same be adopted:
Resoioed, That we deem the passage of a
law entirely prohibiting the sale in intoxica-
ting drinks, as beverage, not onlyconstitu-
tional, but just, republican and expedient,
and that the public good demands it.
| The motion was put to the Convention by
the Chairman and was unanimously adopted
at which time a gentleman not distinctly
! hearing it, desired to hear the resolution
read again, whereupon John B. Odom moved
reconsideration, adopted, and the res
olution again read and adopted with one dis
senting vote. DR.. John w Foster read anC
moved the adoption Of thesecotid rssz5 utior
which is rs follows:
RcsolUcd, That the infamous traficin hu
man blood and crime is unjust anti-republi
can and murderous andin view of tie enor
nous taxes and demoralizing influence which
it entails upon the community, should receive
as it deserves, its righteous condemnation.
The motion was put to the Convention AM
adopted with the same dissenting vote.
I DR.. John w. Foster read and moved tn
adoption of the third resolution which is a
follows:
ReSoEred, That we deem the enactment O
a prohibitory law an object of paramount
Importance and therefore il should com
I mend itself to the support Of all friends G
temperance, to whom we recommend tn
propriety of attending the primary meeting
held to nominate candidates for the Stat
; Legislature, and use every e1ertion 70 brin
out such men as are favorable to prohibition
Upon this resolution q protracted debat
, arose, in which DR.. BENJAMIN F. Person on
DR.. ". S. Copeland took position in oppt
, sition to the resolution, and DR.. JRo w. FoI
ter, Col. Herod Faison, John MS Noody an
P. G. w. P, John B. Odom arSently an
strenuously advocated its proprietg, necess

of by II call for the question, whereupon th
], motion was put by the Chairman and unaI
ilnously adopted. DIR. JohnW Foster rea
and moved the adoption of the fourth resol'
ton, which is as follows:

On the morning Of the 23d, party OF Ia
dies and gentlemen left the village of W., en-
route for Murfreesboro' Uia Plymouth and
Elenton. Though the weather was sultry
and dry, before the sun had heightened suf-
fcicntly to dart his rays Of heat to our dis
comfort, we had. arrived at the very pleasant
town of Plymouth, and found our party all
safely ON board Of the fine Steamer a. II.
Schultz, under command of that most gal
liant Captain. r.. S. Hllsey. AT 10 O'clock
we took our departure, touching at Edenton
and leaving again at IL o'clock. So som as
wemale the opening of the beautiful Chowan
River, we were delighted with the green bow
ers and scenery that lined its margins, and
refreshed by the south west gale that seemed
to engage IN our behalf to render us pleasant
and happy, and to do away the necessity of
the use OF the dozens of fans which our spe-
ea friends \ Sieh9!ls 9 and nd. MaeNeir did rs
we make our Acknowledgements
Thus delighted and refreshed, we were
borne on the Steamer at the speed of a.
bout fifteen miles per hour, and at six o'clk
the Steamers crew were making fast beside
the wharf at our destination, where we were
hailed with the soft and melting notes of soul
inspiring music by the popular and gentle
manly BLnd Of the National Ship Pennsyl-
vania, accompanied with IN tuy citizens, for
our reception. Att o'clock, p. NJ, our par.
ty wore all enjoying the hospitalities OF

enjoyments offered up boon of no littl
brilliancy to all present.
Saturday morning at 5 O'clock, and ou
party was conducted by party of gallan
gentlemen on board the Steamer for our dt
parture, which we very soon did, amid til

!. The following resolutions were passed by

The following resolutions were passed by
Orange county, at regular meeting of the
Division on the evening Of the 25th June, '53:
Whereas, we believe the traffic in spiritu-
Gus liquors not only to be pernicious in its
effects upon society, but has a tendency to
visit vice, infamy, wretchedness and want
upon the families and descendants of it's de-
voices and to place a lure in the way Of our
sons, by which are sown the seeds Of drunk
enness, .sloth and penury ; and whereas we
believe the custom generally practiced by
candidates OF treating at elections and pre-
vious to the same, to he in violation of the
law of North Carolina and an odium on the
integrity Of enlightened citizens and believ-
ing that when under the influence Of alcohol
icEqu0rs one is incapactated from iudicious-
ly exercising his full portion Of the sovereign
ty which he bears to the omnipotent ballot
box therefore,
ResoLued, That we will use all honorable
means to rid our State of the nefarious traf
fc in human blood
Resolped, That in order to secure our sons
from the tempting influence Of this all-corro-
ding and communicating poison, and to rid
our slaves of its corrupting and contagious
effects, we are favorable to a law being enac.
ted in our State cimiiar to the Mississinpi
| liquor law.
ResoLred, That, while we do not propose
to intermix this question with the politics Of
the day, in party view, yet considering this
| a question of superior il aportance we cannot
consent to give our support to any candidate
forotfco who either directly or indirectly treats
his fellow man for the purpose of securing
his election, or indulges in it too freely him
self
Resozved, That in case there is no candi
date Who complies with the above resolution
we will withhold our support entirely.
ReSolced, That we request all the friend
of the Temperance cause in the State to unit,
with US in putting down the detestable traf
fic in spirituous liquors.
Resolced, That copy Of the preamble an
resolutions be signed by the w. P. and sen

FAIsoy's. N. G. July S, 1853.

How emphatically true is it Of the Ord, of
the Sons of Temperance, that it is the fortress,
the city of refuge, from the liquid fire of Al
coholic death ! Here is peace, happiness,
safety ;-outside of it, fear, apprehension,
danger While its principles are adhered
TO the tempter cannot reach us--but yielding
in tho slightest degree, we are in danger Of
utter destruction. A man who is not conyin-
cod Of the truth Of these sentences, has lived
10 very little profit, and must have had his
residence among the g5phers and salanand-
ers, shut out from the light of day and com.
mon observation. B.t there are none such.
really though some profess to be of this class.
The Poet has assigned them their portion
"a man convinced against his viii,
Will be Of tho same opinion SSH"
Another observation Peace, harmony.
fraternity, is indispensable to tAe prosperity
and usefulness of Division; hence the ne
cessity of guarding its portals to prevent the
entrance Of the unworthy, the contentious
the unprincipled. It is the great prolific
cause Of surreRdering chaters, sickly anc
Improbable Divisions, Earrings and heart
burnings in our ranks. While we rejoice t,
see any andal persons knocking at our doors
for ndmittance,. yet self'preservation, impels
us TO institute ridid examination into the
character and conduct of those who aspire tc
become associated with US, and if convinced
Of his unworthiness, that he will be a draw
back, an injury to the cause, then injustice
to that cause, admission should be refused
for it were better ono should suffer than tn,
whole association.
The observance Of the bitter fruits of Ill
advised forbearance has induced me to dro,
these lines OF clution and rolnonstrance.
