FRIEND CLARK: In the last Organ
you make request of those living in
the different counties of the State, to
give you some information respecting
the movements of temperance men
in the various townships.
In regard TO this { Franklin) county,
there never was a period when tenn
perance men were as active and de-
termined as they are at the present
time. Alliances are formed in every
township, and a meeting is held in one
of them almost every night in the
week, which is supplied with speakers
from the city. AT one Of these meet
ings, held last Tuesday evening, sew
enty-6ve signed the constitution, near
ly all of whom were legal voters and
one week from to-day there is to be a
great meeting in Mifflin township,
to attend which the various surround
ing townships have been invited
They are to be supplied with good
speakers, and to be favored with a
number of temperance songs. A
great many are going to the meeting
| from Columbus. We anticipate a
glorious time. 1t is my intention to
be present with my family, and rest
assured that all that can do for the
"Organ" there shall be done cheer
fully. Enclosed is a communication
handed me by one Of the brothers of
the township, showing what is doing
there, which you are at liberty to
/ publish.
/ But I must hasten to a close. Let
me say in concluson-put Franklin
county down for a Maine LaO county.
/ We will elect two Maine Law Repre-
/ sentatives. and majority of our votes
| will be cast for Maine Law Senator.
Our prospects are truly bright and
cheering. Adieu!

merits TO sustain it; and when once
we get the protection of law from it
and have it suspended upon the brittle
thread of its merit, we shall be safe.
We have on the sea-coast several
flourishing Divisions. The Order
throughout the State is more pros
porous than for years past. We are
now introducing The "Order of Social
Circles" among us. 1t promises well.
Your brother editor, DR.. Harmon,
of the "SOuthern Organ" has been

against the ram priests.

would gladden. our hearts to see you
in our delightful sea-coast country at
any time, but especially on the 4th Of
July next, when we shall have at this
place Grand Temperance Jubilee
Can you visit US! We promise you
host of subscribers, and all costs
and damages paid. The man who
bears the banner high in air, as you

Bro. CLARK: | have no news to
send you this time, although the tenn
perance cause is prospecting finely in
our place, and all around the county
our Division is doing finely. 1t has
lately become mother; her offspring
is called Sparta Division, and | think
that in the course Of another week she
will have another in Canterburgh.
They are or will be handy to ours, so
that we can follow the suggestion in
the Organ few weeks ago. Here
in our place, peace and tranquility
reign, as The last doggery in town has
given up, and / am told that he said,
that he had't anything but ale to sell,
tut this is enough, as it is only feed
ing the appetite ofthe moderate dram
1rinker, and urging him on further;
Lut hope he will soon stop this
ursed traffic; and the time will come
when there can't be got anything
stronger than water to quench their
thirst, which is worth all the rest.
But, brother, | wish you to send one
of the Organs, that come to this place,
to Jacob A. Ramey, Chesterville,
Morrow county, as he is residing there
now, and will, probably, for some time;
in SO doing, you will very much oblige
him, for he is anxious to have it and
to see how the cause is abroad.

GEN. CARY: Worthy BrOtker-The
first Temperance Convention ever held
in the State OF Mississippi adjourned
on the 9th inst. This forms new
and bright era in the history Of our
State. The call was made for the
convention late in March, and al
though SO short a notice prevented a
full representation from all parts OF
the State, the convention was never
theIess largely attended nearly three
hundred delegates.
1t affords me pleasure to be able to
say to you that in no State in the Ma
ton has the movement for illegal
suasion" been started under more ia.
vorable auspices than in Mississippi.
The first men Of our State took part
in the convention. The judges Of the
supreme court--almost every distin-
guished politician and jurist of the
State, joined heart and hand with us
in the movement.
We are determined never to rest
until the sanction of law be taken
from the dccursed traffic. We intend
that it shall have nothing but its own

Township Alliance has spread her
sails to the four winds Of the moral
heavens, and is moving gallantly
along before propitious gale, like the
proud swan with her fair bosom to the
pillows Of fopposi ion, seeking aid from
on high, till the angelic song shall
echo back peace on earth and good
will to men. There have been five
regular meetings Of the Alliance, in
which the principal localities Of the
township have been secured by the
judicious management of our worthy
President and officers in general, who
are pillars fn the house Of Refuge now
erecting by the great temperance re-
formation, feeling a full assurance,
that the redemption Of the tempted
inebriate is drawing nigh. Some fifty
legal voters have signed the constitu-
ton, and many females and youth.
The next meeting will be, as an
nounced, a mass meeting, to which
the sister Alliances have been invited,
and are expected. This will conclude
our first quarter then anil there. 1t is
believed and expected there will be
funds deposited in the treasury sufi-
cient ballast for her sail to move to
the prohibitory haven for the drunk

were through an iceberg Of rum.rule,

The factories Of Lowell consume
between eighty thousand and ninety
thousand bales Of cotton a year, about
one-sixth Of the whole consumption
of the United States. They also con-
sumo upwards Of five million pounds
of wool in a year. There are fifty
one mills in the city, employing a
capital Of three million dollars. The
population of the city is thirty-seven
thousand, almost entirely subsisting,
directly or indirectly, through the
disbursements Of the capital invested
in the mills; and all this is done, be
it remembered, very much without
the presence or aid Of any intoxica-
ting liquor.
