BRo CLARK:-Having little spare
time this morning | drop you line,
wishing to inform you Of what we
have been doing in our township in
the temperance cause. On the 2Sth
Of March, agreeably to previous no.
tice, respectable number of the citi-
zehs of this township met in this viii
lage, for the purpose of forming a
Township Temperance Alliance. On
motion a committee of live was ap-
pointed to draft constitution. The
committee reported through their
chairman, a preamble, constitution and
resolution, which were adopted almost
unanimously by the meeting; after
which eighty persons came forward
and signed their names to the consti-
tuition. Our constitution is similar to
the Hamilton county constitution
The name is West Township Tenn
perance Alliance. The resolution
adopted is as foIlows:-
Resot0ed, that we hereby respect,
fully but earnestly request the differ
ent political parties to nominate for
office in future, and especially for the
legislature, good and reliable temper.
ance men, and we will use our inAu-
ence, individually, in our respective
parties to secure the nomination Of
such men and such only. A delega-
ton of five persons was appointed by
the meeting toattend the county meet
ing held in New Lisbon. The meeting
then adjourned to meet in the same

Mr.. EDIToR:--Having informed
you of the phase of the temperance
question on the 95th of last mouth,
in relation to electing board of mu-
nicipal officers, for the village corpo-
ration, it is but right to add what has
transpired since in connexion with
the same subject. 1t appears that
day or so previous to the election,
from a source whence the temperance
body anticipated strong opposition,
emanated one of the best temperance
tickets that could have been got up
for the object desired, final suppress
sion of rum shops and gambling sa-
looms, &c. This was called the peo.
ple's ticket, and the party who gave
it its paternity, claim that of the two
temperance tickets, this was the most
consistent with the avowed purposes
of temperance men. To all Of which
the latter will not I presume demur,
since many of the most active lead
ers in the project of prohibition were
the ones selected. This ticket pre-
vailed so generally that all the officers
elected are men of the right sort who
have already gone about the good
work, and will | doubt not acquit
| themselves like men. Whether this
unexpected proceeding had aught to
H do with the fall election, Of county
officers, | leave for those to judge
who understand political calisthenics
far better than myself. Whatever
cause conspired to render our meas
ures triumphant, is but Of little mo-
ment, compared with the result, for
even were this measure in reference
to the fall elections, it shows conclu-
siveIy where the issue is to be for the
future until we get Maine Law and
have it enforced.
II The truth is the minds of the peo-
pie in this section have been brought
to the subject not only by temperance
effort, but by many outrages upon
good morals and public order, and
the whole people are convinced thai
there is something very wrong about
dram shops and gambling saloons
and are half mind to try the expe.
riment Of dispensing with the fixtures
to the corporation Of Medina. It il
l at present no unusual occurrence tt

influence, to declare boldly for a sup

This is the case with the young men
of Medina; twenty Of them having
given their names for organizing a
Temple Of Honor in the Social Degree
of which some of the young ladies
will unite. This is encouraging and
speaks well for progress and the fu-
ture. We shall soon also have an or
dinanCe here worth talking about.
The vice of drinking is so disgust
ing in its nature, and SO antagnostic
to all that is pure and good, that the
candid mind cannot be brought to
seriously reflect upon the subject
without spontaneously acknowledging
that mankind are thousand times
better off without ardent spirits in
any form. This leads me to reflect
that the present interest in the State
should not be suffered to subside;
temperance meetings, conventions,
lectures &C., be discontinued during
the summer months, but the subject
pressed home to the hearts and con-
sciences at all times, until the moral
atmosphere Of Ohio is purified ofmuch
of the mist of caution and seIf-inter.

April Sd, 1853. {

Bro. CLARK: At a meeting held at
Harrisville, Harrison Co., Ohio, the
following resolutions were unanimous
ly adopted as the sense Of the Coun-
Gil; ordered to be signed by the Off
GERS and sent to the Organ for
publication, viz:
Resolved, That the friends Of tenn
perance in Jefferson and Harrison
counties in Quarterly Council con-
vened, believe that the present aspect
of the temperance question demands
their earnest, untiring and concentra-
ted action, and the present is a most
auspicious time to strike the blow
which shall ehectually and forever sic
lence the common enemy Of mankind.
ResolOed, That we hail with pleas
ure the glorious day which is dawn
ing, promising as it does to shed its
effOlgent light upon every class Of
community, and withering, by its
brightness, that foul and accursed
system which upholds and propagates
every species Of crime, misery and
degradation, physical and mental; and
driving to their hiding places, those
who have dared thus long to stand
out against the influence Of truth and
virtue.
/ ResOlUed, That the State Of Ohio
demands, and will have, (ifgood and
true men imnumerabe can accomplish
it) Legislation which will meet the exi-
gencies of the case; Legislation which
will place the liquor vender conspicu-
ously among the grossest violators of
law and order, and protect the moth
ers and wives, sisters and daughters,
from the blighting, withering and
damning influence Of intemperance.
RESOLVED, That to this end, while
we disclaim all separate political or
ganization, (unless impelled so to do
by the action of existing political par
ties) we hereby avow our determine.
ton to support, for no legislative,
executive, or ministerial office, any
man who, is not pledged uncompro.
misingly To use all his influence, off.
cial and otherwise, for the enactment
Of such legal measures as shall secure
US the Maine Law or its equivalent.
/ Resotved, That we regard with deep
regret, the weak, abortive and dis
graceful action, Of our last State Leg
islature, and moreover, we recognize
in the originatoFs and supporters of
the ridiculously foolish and ineffective
law, which they blindly attempt to
palm upon US, weakness and folly un-
worthy Of men.

The President being absent, H. d.
McCarty was called to the CHAIR
The minutes ofprevious meeting was
then read and adopted. lya /
R. Hambleton offered the following
resolution which was unanimously i
adopted:- II
ResoIUed, That the Daughters Of
Temperance be admitted to a seat in
this Council, and hereafter have the
privilege of sending regular dele
gates.
On motion of W. H. Clark, Article
4th of the Constitution was so amend
ed as to admit the Daughters of Tenn
perance, and to give to each Division
and Union in the county, one delegate
for every five members.
The following persons were ap-
pointed to draft resolutions:-R. Ham,
bleton, J. w. Newport, H. B. Bum
garner, B, F. Ramage and Woodruff;
the Council then took recess until
half past one o'clock P. M.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
The committee reported the follow
ing resolutions which were adopted.
Resolved, That civil government
was instituted amongst men to secure
to all the rights and privileges COM
patibIe with the well being Of man in
the broadest sense, political, social
and moral. ..
Resolved, That in protecting and
securing these rights, no one is to be
fostered at the expense and dlsad-
vantage of the others.
ReSoIred, That moral rights and
privileges being more intimately con-
nected with mans present and future
destiny, they hence acquire part
mount influence, and should have the
first place in every code of law de.
signed for the government of man.
Resolred, That the Liquor traffic
in every aspect, and under every va
riety of circumstances, has invaria-
bly, proved destructive of the good
morals, peace, and order of society;
thus sapping the corner stone Of civil
order, good government, and all that
is noble in humanity.
Resolved, That it hence becomes
the imperative duty of all who desire
the progress, development, and high
est attainment of the human family,
by every honorable means, to oppose
the further continuance of said traffic.
Resolved, That it is known to every
person, and all the world besides
that the "Sons" have set their face
as steel against the traffic; and how.
ever the world and politicians may
discredit our profession hitherto, they
are destined to a sore disappointment
if they further presume on our for
bearance.
Resolved, That we hail with io7

County Alliance. and by all that il

who will not publicly pledge himse
