Neal noM n Canada

This distinguished philaHthropist,
after leaving our State, made a flying
visit to some Of the principal points III
Canada. Everywhere he was re-
ceivsd with becoming honcrs. It is
most gratifying to see that others
than military heroes, and politicians
wha have patronage to dispense, are
thus greeted in these last days. The
following brief account Of his receP-
tiOr' at Toronto, we clip from a Cana
dapaper: 'S
'At Toronto the honorable gentle
man was enthusiastically received and
worthily treated. From the "North
American" we learn that the repre-
seAtatives of the various temperance
associations met to await the arrival
ofthe steamer from Hamilton, Seven
carriages drew up; and the steamer
heaving in sight, the party proceeded
to the wharf to await its arrival. a
mutual congratulation soon followed (;
and having reached the head of the
wharf, the party seated themselves nj
the carriages and proceeded to make
a range Of the city, that the Hon.
gentleman might form some idea Of
its extent. Mr.. Mink's large crimson
carriage, drawn by four excellent
grays, led the way, and in it were
seated the Reception Committee and
the Hon. Neal Dow. The next was
the handsome private carriage of Fred.
c. Capreol, Esq, with his beautiful
grays, which had been put at the ser.
vice Of the Secretary Of the League fol
the occasion. The other five car
riages followed in order"
In Canada, as elsewhere, the i'm
preston made by him was most ia
vorable, both in respect to himsel
and the great liquor law Of which h
was the author. Honor to whor
honor is due" we say, and hence W
rejoice that Neal Dow's worth, as a
ffindividuaI, and his claims as aphilar
thropist, are recognized.

The Cincinnati Enquirers soIil

The above paper Of Thursday last,
contains an unjust, unmanly and out !,
rageous attack upon the editor ofthe
Organ, which we do not feel at liberty
to pass without a notice.
The article is Of that malignant
character which characterizesthe mind
and heart Of dishonest, trucking po-
litical knave. It has no foundation in
truth, He impugns Gen. tCary's mo
tives in advocating the temperance re-
form says that he is q " bitfer Whig'
and q +" demagogue," " withal; all Of
which is, in plain language, 2 hs from d
beginning to end, a,,8 sg
Gen. Cary is not partizan-has no 4
political aspirations-would accept o
no Office within the gift Of the people, a
He advocates the principles Of the
temperance cause, from pure mouVes
"a desire to elevate his race-to alle1
yiate the many suferings incident to
the liquor traffic. He has no higher :
ambition than this-no higher ann
bition than to receive the need OF
praise of an honest, intelligent and
sober community. This i. the re-
ward for which he aims, and this will
he receive. Could the editor Of the
Enquirer say as much for himself, his
would be quiet repose, with no Wis
ions of golden lands to torture and hor- NJ
rify his honest mind and conscience. a5
/ We deem it necessary to say that
Gen. Cary is absent from the city
\ When he returns, more attention will
be paid to the Enquirer. = Us

Important Movement.

A meeting Of the Hamilton County
Temperance Executive. Committee was
held in Foster Hall Monday morning.
The Committee was nearly full, and
the reports from each ward and town
ship, were favorable to temperance
political movement, and many of the
members expressed themselves firmly
of the opinion that Maine Law ticket
could be elected, if composed Of good
men. The day fixed for the Delegate
Convention to nominate such ticket
is Wednesday the 14th day Of Sep
tember, the day after the Democratic
Convention. The Convention, we
| learn, will be held in the large and
comfortable hall Of Smith q Nixon,
the proprietors of which have freely
rendered it for that purpose free Of
charge. Preliminary meetings will be
held for the choice of delegatess a
committee of six from the city, Messrs.

Unusual.

1t is very seldom we find a Metho-,
dist Church in our country villages
closed against temperance meetings.
When we do find such a case, there is
usually some other cause than devo-
tion to Methodism. One Of these ex-
ceptions, we understand, is to be found
at Milford. The house is not a re.
'markably fine one, but it is too holy a,
place for secular meetings. The prom
inent members of the Church are
busily engaged in supplying the dis
tillery at Milford with coin. We state
this fact without intimating that this
is the reason for their pious zeal for
the purity and sanctity Of the place Of
their Sabbath meditations. bHe @

Friday, John K, Williams enteytained
the people. On Saturday, when the
Editor reached the ground, M. M.
Edwards was discoursing to about
3,000in large and beautiful grove.
We understood that Bro. E. made a
powerful speech Of about three hours
the evening previous, to delighted
audience. At the conclusion of his
speech on Saturday, the whole multi
tude repaired to an adjacent grove.
where free dinner was provided for
all. And such a dinnerl "Sixteen
hundred and twenty FIVE feet Of table,
were loaded with all the substan.
tials and luxuries of life. We never
saw a richer feast. After dinner the
Editor addressed the multitude for
more than two hours on the principles
and policy Of law Of liquor annihila-
ton. AT the conclusion it was voted
unanimously
lst. That the people had right to
put out the distiIlery fires and close
the grog-shops by law. ai'

man of any party, for the next Legis-
lature, who would not commit himself
fully to the support Of such law. &
In the evening the Editor spoke in
that whisky-cursed town, Milford.
At fifteen minutes notice the Masonic
Hall was crowded, and all listened
with attention and voted unanimously
as above. l1 I yG
Clormont county, in politics, is
largely Democratic, and If the Con.
vention Of that party nominate Maine
Law men for the Senate and House
of Representatives, the Wings will
bring out no ticket. But if (as is
likely to be the CASEY they repudiate
this question, then an Independent
Democratic Maine Law ticket will be
made, and the result will be thai
Whisky wings will vote with the regu-
lar whisky democrats, and the decent
men Of both parties will stand side by
side for the independent ticket. We
shall SIZE whether the distiIleries Ol
New Richmond and Milford will rule
the people, or the people rule them.

BROOM CORN.

In the Mohawk Valley, N. Y, vast
quantities of this crop are annually
grown. Pennsylvania, Ohio and Con-
nccticut are the next largest producers
Of it. It's origin as a cultivated p'aEt
in this county, is attributed to Doctor
Franklin. II is a native OF India
franklin saw an imported whisk Of
corn in the possession Of a lady in Phil
adelphia, and, while examining it as a
curiosity, found seed, which he plant
ed, and from this small beginning arose
this valuable product Of industry in the
United States. In the same manner
England and America are indebted for
the weeping willow to the poet Pope,
who, finding green stick in a basket
of figs sent TO him as present from
Turkey, stuck j! in his garden lat Twlck-
cnbam, and thence propasated this beau
lilul tree. rn .'
