crime that are soprominent in every street Let

the hundreds of groggeries, the respectable, and

ter, and there see the bloated, besotted couhte-

dare exclaim that rum is not dev vastating in It's

But, we especially intended, at the commence
ment of this article TO refer TO the sale of liquor
on the Sabbath day. On Sunday last, from ear
| ly morn 10 the dawn of the following day, our
streets and coffee houses were filled with drunk
en- debauchery and midnight orgies of the most
deplorabe nature. Intermixed with the b'hoys
ragamuffins, lcafers and brothe bullies could be
seen the laboring mechanic, the usually prompt
and sober business man, the merchant, and the
professional man-all splendidly drunk, and for
! the time, "hale fellows, well met" Such
sights are shocking, yet are but too true.
There are ordinances for the prevention OF
the sale of liquor on Sunday, that need but the
hearty cooperation Of the municipal authorities,
to be at once put in force, and to carry them out
to the fullest letter,
Yesterday, the Mayor instructed the police
! to enforce the ordinance, and to complain of all
! selling liquor within their respective beats. 1t
now remains to be seen whether this is prompt
ly done if not, there is but little hope for the
redemption of the city from crime. or the pro-
lection OF our citizens, unless public meeting
is called, and the matter canvassed by the peo-
pie themselves. Cincinnati Nonparei.
toHN CAPtG and Carson EMMEs, charged
with the murder of Mr.. SoHAN at Philadelphia,
and who have been on trial for some days in
that city, have been found guilty of murder in
the first degree. The murder referred to was
committed under circumstances more than usu-
ally alarming. Capie and Emmes, in state of
partial htoxication, after avowing purpose Of
committing violence rushed into the streets and
in mere wantonness Of outrage, struck down and
kihni laboring man who was then on his way
to Ms home. This occurred only some three
weeks since, and the murderers as above stated
have been arrested tried and convicted. and
from this speedy vindication of JUSTICE the pro.
lection Of the citizens derives one Of its strong

a Connecticut Editor SAYS :

We look to Michigan and Ohio
with feelings of deep interest. There
is marshalling of the temperance
legions in these two States, such as
there has never been before. Ifevery
man is true, the victory is as sure as
the day of trial comes. 1t is stirring
spectacle when States are moving in
solid column against a common enc
my. The most despairing may well
arouse with sure hope of success.
Temperance men of Ohio, good
men in all the States are observing
your movements with inexpressibIe
anxiety. Will you be "4rUe" to your
selves and your country? Will you
set poor runa-curSed Connecticut an
example worthy Of imitation? That
land of "steady habits" has terribly
degenerated, and the good and pure
men left there, are looking to you for
encouragement. Shall they look in
vain?

UP TO WEDNESDAY.

The Organ, for this week, will be read
with interest and profit by all of our pa
irons. II contains much valuable and use
full information, which will cheer the heart
of every philanthropist. We intend to de-
vote our columns, until the contest is over,
exclusively to the doctrine of prohibition
and county news. We deem this course I'M
portant at this time. The Campaign Organ
will, therefore, be valuable for circulation
among those who are little acquainted with
the tuie Of our present demands. We
hope our friends will see the necessity and
Importance Of circulating such information
among the people. One hundred copies
ought to be circulated in every county of
the State. They are furnished at cost, and
the expense should be no obstacle, when
the immense advantage Of their circulation
is taken into consideration. Letthe friends
of temperance unite in raising the funds
necessary. 1t can easily be done, if pro-
per effort is only made. What friend of
temperance, who has the good work at heart,
would refuse to unite with his brothers, his
friends and neighbors, in raising the means
to enlighten the minds of those who are in
darkness, that their principles may triumph?
1t is an imp ortant duty, and we hope twill
be performed promptly yand'faitirfully Re
member, that if we fail now, it may take
years of toll to regain our present position.

important News.

strip of land in the MesiIla Valley is
assuming a serious aspect. President
Pierce has decided that the disputed
territory belongs to the United States,
under the treaty Of Gaudaloupe Hidal-
90. In consequence Of this decision,
Gen. Garland has been ordered, with
a strong force, to proceed Immediately /
and take possession Of the disputed
territory. AS Governor Trias Mex
lean, is now in possession, rupture
may be expected. It is to be hoped
that this dispute will be allowed to be
settled in the manner contemplated in
the treaty of Gaudaloupe, by running
the line over again, or. in case Of
final disagreement, to refer the dispute
to the arbitration Of some third party.
But arms are now introduced by both
parties in the dispute, and both par
ties indicate a resolute intention to
settle the question by arms. Gov.
Trias may give way, but he has not
occupied the Mesilla valley for the
purpose of yieldingit.
We have seen the first Mexican war,
and know its origin and its immediate
provocation. The circumstances Of
the present case are similar to those
Of the former. The advance on Cor.
pus Christi and upon Matamoras kin
died the first war, and the second may
be occ rsioned by the movement upon
the Mesilla valley.
The news from Europe, per steam
er Canada, which arrived at Halifax
on the 9th inst, at p. m, is very I'M
portant. 1t is believed that Napoleon
III. has threatened Russia with war,
in case that government persists in
her unjust demands on Turkey. In
Paris, the Bourse was violently agita-
ted by the circulation of a report that
the Russian forces had entered Tur-
key.
The diplomatic relations between
Switzerland and Austria are entirely
broken off.
In the British Parliament, on the
eth ult., Lords Clarendon and Rus
sell stated that the French and Eng
Iish Ministers ut Constantinople were
acting in concert, and that the integ-
rity Of the Porte would be maintained;
and expressed hope that Russia will
insist on nothing incompatible there
with; but further said, that in the pre-
sent state of the question, they could
not give further indication as to the
course the British Government would
adopt.
1t was rumored that Napoleon had
assured the Russian Minister that
much as he desired the peace of Eu-
rope, yet he would not hesitate to
change his policy, if Russia should
force measures hostile to France and
the east.
At the urgent request of the EN-
peror Of China, the American, French,
and English ships of war in Eastern
