TEMPERANCE AT ALBANY.

Yes, at Albapy-why not Is there any place
where it 10 more needed We have, by hard
work, elected d Maine-L Law Governor, Lieut.
Governor and Assembly; we have Senate hold
ing over already committed to the principle of
Prohibition.
The Ksiekerboeker, (AlbAny,) edited by the
Clerk of the Senate, and uniting profession of
attachment to the Wing party with habitual de-
nunciation of nearly everything that party has
done or sought to do, has already broken ground
for reasonable sensible, moderate Ten psrance
law-not such an ultra, fanatica, despotic meas
ure as that reported by Myron H. Clark, and
passed through both Houses last winter. The
Kniekerboeker editor is theoretically in favor of
a. Good Liquor" though we regret to add that
his practice, like that of many others, is worse
than bis theory Such law, he urges as will
shut up the ioo grogshops, where poison rum is
retaied at three cents glass, may easily be
passed, and will be sustained by public sentiments
while more stringent measure would inevitably
fail.
Now We have several objections TO such an act
as is demanded by the Judgment and taste Of the
SiCih VI tho CtuotCs Iuc uIsb III iulp6Il1utt,
therefore in order, is this: No such lao can ersr
be enforced. So long as one man is permitted to
cell Alcoholic Drinks in the gilded saloon of
marble palace on Broadway at q shilling a glass,
90 long will an inferior article be sold in Cherry
or Water-st. at three cents a swig, and there is
no help for it. No legislation aimed at the vices
Of the Poor, while spariDg those Of the Rich,
can ever be upheld in this country, and we rejoice
that such is the fact. While Liquor is lawfully
sold at Congress Hail. just outside Of the State
Capitol, it will also be sold, lawfully or unlsw-
fully, from corner groceries and low oyster eel
lars to ragged vagabonds aud blear. eyed sots.
We are not now speaking of the ely, ssealthy,
underhand dispensation Of Alcoholic potables
which will 60 on In defiance Of any possible en-
sctments; we refer to the open, public, unre-
strained sale of the poison. No law that permits
sparkling Catawba" or generous Hook to be
sold at the Aston or st. Nicholas can be relied on
70 suppress the vile eroggeries on the Hook or st
'ne rive Points. We beg those who are called

bear this truth in mind

Objectionable BY any one who really wants the
Liquor Traffic suppressed; snd We don't EXPECT
to suit the other sort. All the late bubbub .hout

it. No man seriously apprehended that hi, prem.

In another part Of this paper, will be found
detailed account of the celebration OF the Flfneth
Anniversary of the New-York Historical Society.
The occasion was one Of unusual interest and
called together an audience which crowded Nlblos

abstract and philosophical character, than is usual

Occupying nearly two hours in the delivery, its
closeness Of argument and brevity Of expression,
presented severe demand upon the attention;
but no one could listen to its acute analyses aud
pregnant suggestions, without reaping rich to-
tellectual reward. The application Of the doc
trDes of the ideal philosophy to the illustration
of rhetorical development was the leading feature
Of the Grafton, and ELECTED several original and
striking views, which cannot fail to make an i'm
preston on the rejecting portion of the public.
The recognition of certain universal truth 10 the
accredited formulas of the ology, and its influence
on the progress of society in different ages, was

States, and will occasion no surprise among the
intelligent readers of that work. His rebuke of
the materialism of the last century, and the at
tempt to reproduce it in the present, under the
presumptious Disguise of positive Philosohy"
was emphatic and severe, and appeared to meet
with a hearty response from the generality of his
hearers. In point of literary merit, we think.
this Grafton, will compare favorably with any of
his former occasional productions, anu increase
his already exalted fame.
