so. Early next morning a gentleman of tho
place, a licensed dealer and a member Of the
Methodist Church, either of his own good
will, or by solicitation, or sale, / know not
which, sent to the Jail to the unfortunate
man, n pint, more or less, of whiskey, to COM
fort him in his oneliness-this too, without
the knowledge or consent of the sheriff. The
consequence was, that language the most
disgusting, and oaths the most blasphemous
and outrageous were during the entire day
heard from the Jail windows, and so great
the nuisance that the sheriff felt himself
called on to visit the various shops, and direct
that no more liquor should be sent to him.

/ would state that the citizens about Cross
Roads Church were ably and Interestingly
addressed on the 4.h of July, by Mr.. j. III.
Kinyoun, an Assistant Teacher in New In
%stitute, Iredell County, doing credit to his
head and heart. After showing the injurious
effects Of alcohol on the human constitution,
Mr.. K. said, we needed q remedy, and that
he would propose q Prohibitory Law, and
proceeded to urge its adoption, to arrest the
progress Of this destroying and devastating
enemy that is now stalking over our land
answering, rs we think, very ably all of the
objections raised against such 4 law, After
Mr.. Kinyoun ended his speech, w. A. Robey,
Esq. was called up, and favored the audience
with q very able, practical, and eloquent
speech; pointing out in n very happy and for
chile manner the effects Of this fell destroyer.
After Mr.. R9bey concluded, one Of the Rum
mics arose and said that he had liberties that
his ancestors fought for, and went on with q
considerable harrangue Of such stuff, which
deserves no further notice.
Wo were highly entertained with the two
first gcntlemen-we can but wish that W.
had many such young men as Mr.. Kinyoun
who would meet this question earnestly AM
fairly rs he did on this occasion.
We want Temperance men to come out an
