The New Jersey Telegraph, pub lished at Hoboken smarting under the strictures which the late railroad acci- dent at Burlington has Dro't out rom the New York city papers, talks back as follows:
 We cannot boast of murder once a week; our streets are not filled with prostitutes and sharpers; we have no gilded saloons where Haunting vice and villainy seduce the youth and bolster up the lust and passions of the grey headed. We have no Police bullies to make or unmake city officials who serve the dear people, with one arm up to the elbow in the public treasury We cannot boast of enterprising Schuy- lers, Swartwouts, Onderdonks, or spir- trapping judges. Our cities do not spend quarter of a million per annum to make sots of all the legislative or mu- nicipal donkies that happen to visit their "legislations." /" Our banks don't make daily smash, running business men and robbing widows and orphans, while fnanciering tellers and cashiers retire to their chateau or brown stone front.

INEBRIETY.-When this vice has ta- ken fast hold of a man, farewell in dustry-fareweu emulation-farewell attention to things worthy of attention farewell manners-and farewell to even an attention to person. Every thing is sunk by this predominant and brutal appetite. In how many in stances do we see men who began life with the brightest prospects before them, aud who have closed 1t without any ray of comfort and consolation,- Young men with good fortunes, good tempers, good hearts, good constitu- tions, only being drawn into the vor- tex of the drunkard, have become by degrees, the most loathsome and des- picable of mankind. In the house of the drunkard there is no happiness for any one. All is uncertainty and anx- iety. He is not the same man for any one day at a time. No one knows of his outgoings or his incomings. When he will rise or when he will lie down to rest, is who'll y a matter of chance.- That which he swallows for what he calls pleasure, brings pain as surely as night brings morning. Poverty and misery are in the train. To avoid these results, we are called upon to make no sacrifces.-Abstinence re- quires no aid to accomplish 1t. Our own will is all that is requisite; and if we have not the will to avoid contempt, disgrace and misery, we deserve nei- ther relief nor compassion.
