Morgan County.

We have the proceedings of
large and spirited meeting, held at
McConnelIsville, on the 2Sth ult.--
The meeting was addressed by Rev.
Mr.. Caldwell, of Charlottesville, on
the propriety of enacting prohibitory
laws. His address was forcible and
spirited.
In the afternoon, Rev. Freeman
Yates, Of Michigan, an old veteran in
the cause, addressed the meeting
AT the conclusion Of his address, he
was invited to remain in that county,
two weeks.
The following Sketch Of his address,
we copy from the McCOnnellsville
Herald.
"Mr. Yates, Of Michigan, was just
from the scene Of a temperance tri-
umph, as Michigan had lately given
about 10000 Of a majority for pro-
hibitory law; and his zeal was there
fore above ordinary liquor heat. He
started out with the proposition that
there was no original or natural de-
mand for Intoxicating drinks: but that
a demand had been caused by pro-
dueing and continuing supply:
while the Only way to get clear OF this
demand was to remove the supply;
and thus the artificial demand would
become extinct. He had seen the
war, waged in Maine; for he was
then an editorof the leading temper
ance paper 10 the State, and had
knowledge Of the real character Of the
revolution on this subject. The law

in Maine was executed everywhere,
and the happy results were apparent
in the sobfietyi Of the people, and the
changed character Of the police re-
ports, and the criminal records of the
whole State, n,iaa
"The law was characterized as be-
ing the creature Of necessity, and
came into existence when all other
means had failed to work an entire
change. If men would not testify as
to the character of liquor sold, the
liquor when called into court would
always tell what it was, and the 9TH
Ger who had it in custody could tell
where il had been. The speech Of
Mr.. Yates was replete with apt Illus

elusive arguments; but as he is now
