LoUls1ANA.-The Sugar State ofthe South
is alive and in earnest for a Prohibitory law.
At the recent State Temperance Convention.
Resolutions were adopted, declaring a war of
determination upon the traffic as beverage
n calling upon the Legislature to take i'm
mediate steps to ascertain by a general vote
the wishes and will of the people of louisa
ma on the important question and as soon
as the voice of the people shall be in favor of
Prohibition, a law shall be passed in confor-
nifty Herewith. A Resolution was also a.
dopted, p~ledging the members to vote for no
man for the Legislature, who is unwilling to
consult the views of the people on this cues
ton and, when fairly aseertained, to enforce
them in wise and s%alutary enactments, by
the police power of the State.

@ Intcmperance has been associated
with elections whereofthe memory of man
runneth not to the contrary" and yet GER
tain patriots" have never expressed any
fears that htemperance would be mixed with
politics. But now our people are seeking to
divorce this unholy alliance, they are horri-
fed at the idea that Temperance should be
fefnSRd felt AT tie ballet hhpg t / rMYhE ,gqt
mer long enough, in all conscience, to satisfy
every one that it works badly-let us work
a reform and try the opposite of Intemper-
ahce. Is politics such a low, abominable,
dirty business, that nothing good can be mix
cd with it? We are told it is the dearest
right of an American freeman, this right of
suffrage. In the name of patriotism, then,
let us debase it no longer.

FOR THE SPIRIT OF THE AGE.

The 4th ofJuly was celebrated by the cit
liens OF Long Greek and vicinity, with much
spirit. At the appointed hour a procession
was formed at the Temperance Hall, headed
bya fine band ofmusic, and marched throuoh
the principal streets of the village, to the
Masonic Hall, which had been kindly tender
ed by that fraternity. After prayer by Rev.
9. W. Wallace and appropriate music bv the
band, the National Declaration of Indenen-
dence was readin a forcible manner by Louis
Kerr, Esq. The Grafton by David Wallace
was indeed a fine production, Astounding with
literary gems and patriotic sentiment. a
bountiful and sumptuous repast was spread
in the grove, to which the most of the com
pany did ample justice. We then returned
to the Hall and were highly entertained bv
very appropriate Temperance Address from
the Rev. Mr.. Wallace.
VIM. ). Devane, Esq. being called to the
the stand, addressed the audience most effec-
lively for an hour, with one of his yerv hest
speeches. On this occasion he fully sustained
his reputation as apromising young Orator.
Nd. Fennell was called on and responded in
a bret address. Thus ended the public ever
cIse OF the glorious 4th at Long Greek. VI

Prohibition-The Crisis.

The fact cannot be disguised, that the cues
ton of the prohibition of the liquor traffic,
will form one of the great clements of State
policy IN the canvass the ensuing year, in
the election Of members of the Legislature.
We see a disposition on the part of some per-
sons even now, in the election of local Off
GERS and Congressman, to make this an issue.
Some ayowing they will vote for no man who
is at all assimilated with, or even favorable
to the Temperance cause while others de-
clare they will support 10 man who treats
his tellow-man with the death-dealing poison
while others affirm they can go for no man
who IS opposed to the passage Of a law pro-
hlbltlng its sale in the State. It is, there
fore obvious, that it is impossible to thrust
these issues aside-arise they will, and they
should be met with honesty, candor and mod
Grafton. In this free and enlightened coun-
try, 1t is the prerogative ofan American free
man to require that the man who secures his
Suffrage should assimilate with him in his
views, on all the prominent questions at is
sue before the people; but lie is unworthy
the high and holy name, who will stop his
ears and shut his eyes to every argument
advanced by those from whom he NAV differ
III sentiment and action.
In the discussion and disposition of the
question of Prohibition, there will doubtless
arise a diversity of opinion, a wide disparity
Of views but we can seen good reason why.
-
produce angry bitterness, or even contentious
~wrangiings. It is a great question of politi-
cal jurisprudence, as we'll as moral principle.
and should be disposed of in the full day-
light OF calmness and enlightened patriotism.
Upon this question, which involves the polit-
lcal, %pecuniary, social and moral well-beino
OF the community, men may as nationally and
properly make it q basis for action, as upon
that OF Distribution of the Public Lands. a
Penltentlary, a State Convention, Free Suf-
trage' or any other question Of local or gen
eral Importance. Let all our people, then,
become willing to look the question in the
face, argue and hear it argued, and then, af-
ter having received all the light we can get,
as intelligent freemen, make up our verdict
and vote as our judgments and hearts NAV
dictate.

R8r We have been asked the following
questions " Can a person visit a Division
on a Travelling or Withdrawal Card, after
that Card is twelve months old ?"
We answor-Certainly not. No Card can
be granted for a longer period than twelve
months, and if the period the card was gran
ted for has expired, Of course the holder must
not be permitted to visit Division upon the
Card, even though a member may feel vii
ling to vouch for him as q member of the
Order.
Question ID" Can a w. P. invest any
one but a member of his own Division with
the password ?"
We answer-No /; except in the case when
the visiting Brother brings a written request
from the w. P. of his Division, requesting a
specified w. p. to communicate it to him.
This has been the rule and workings of the
Order even since its organization, and if any
have acted otherwise, it has beena departure
from the rule the ~propriety of which is
manifest, when it is recollected that no one
is competent in the visiting Division, to tes-
tify that the Brother is not in arrears, and
therefore entitled to the password. When
the visiting brother is vouched for, he NAV
be permitted to remain, but the password
must not be given him.
Question 3D." According to the action of
the late session Of the Nat. Div, can Subor-
dinate Divisions regulate their weekly dues
at what they please?"
ARsce5-No. The action of the n. D.
pertains only to the minimum, or lowest
price admissible for initiation fees. 1t does
not refer to regular dues at all.
Question 4M.-We are asked the cause or
tage from Subordlnatts t9"npeE Of ner CEN
change was made by the Nat. Div, and in
the absence Of information we are unable to
answer officially. We presume it was made
because Sub. Divs. have grown so slack in
the collection of weekly dues, and the per
centage on the small amounts paid in, were
insufficient to meet the current expenses of
Grand Divisions. Hence per capita tax is
laid, and perhaps Sub. Divs. will be more
prompt in the collection of dues. We have
Divisions in this State with from 50 to IS
members whose per centage ~latterly rarely
amounts to 81. BY the new arrangement we
think Divisions will be benefited, by making
all their members pay up, while the G. d.
will be sure Of a revenue sufficient to meet
its expenses.
