The Rev HENRY WARD BERcHER then rose and
WINS received with tumutuous cheering. He said IN
substance: In large cities Is possible by force OF or
rargement and the power of money TO pass ana sus-
tain laws of doubtful character without the people
Gazing much about them. Bat in the mass OF the pco-
pie Of the country The law to be sustained must be the
CONSOLIDATION Ofthcir nmost convictions and whoa IS

God we have lived to see such law enacted by the
people of this State, and do not thk ii will soon

Pauperism crime and many diseases have been traced
back by every statistician and scientific man TO the
use of intox eating drinks. The other day was in
the Jail at Lenox-ony Us visitor Lau 5hterl, and
the jaer told me that tie majority OF those that came
under his charge were brought TO that strait by nt)xca-
ting drinks. Now, have the night most undoubtedly
toIestrain o. prevent the traffic in this perncious arice
We don't cav have right to stop man from
drinking rum because that would lac violation OF b..
constitutional rights. We have the night ana we shan
exercise it too, TO prohibit the traffic in rum. How
did we get This law BY the action of the people Mt
tie balot-box. Unlike the Fugitive Slave Law
which was never submitted to the people but sprung
upon Their Representatives in Congress by dema-
eogue clique, and then by the exercise of every
species Of iniquiious coercion carried through
this course like the from the East. 1t was can
yessed by every fTeside aud In every workshop, aud
on every farm throughout the length aud brellth Of
the State The Legislature passed ne law but n was
saneled by the Governor at its birth, aud eventually
il straneled him lGreat applausel AMI an glai
canvass with "Tbo Prohibory Law inscribed upon
our banners And we were successful The people
decided that they would have the law, aud we
hare got it. Now we will carry 1t out. 1t
is 20 framed that the iquor-selcTs can eyaie IT,
If it had not been nicely adapted 10 the necessities
of The cnse there would not be lalf so mach QUERY
against it. When was boy chasing squirrels and
the animal got into hole IN tree, ond cut pole
TO poke him out if jabbed up aud the poe did Mt
come within foot of him, he did nj nnd it a bit
but when cut another pole little longer and the
first lab reached bin, then thore was squeang and
toriible TODD. SO it is with these rumselers-'he
law reaches them in their Utmost retreats; hence the
outcry. But let these people try to get the
law repealed. | only want that it may be
again given TO the people, and ! 90 not Tear

was TO be upheld, when man was 10 be returned to
Slavery and the people felt like dispuung the Juslce o.
the law then me Journal Of Commerce and The
Courier and Enquirer used to come out wih terrible
bomiiCs about The sanctiiy of the law. Now that we
have good sound law for the beneht OF the wives an
children and the mass Of the community lew that
will do away with paupersm and goot deal OF crime
Where are these journalists nowl not word IN de-
ferse of this law; but we them daily prog 1oscang

He would rather have paid 81 900 than undergo the
Imprisonment But the law Is no respcc-er OF persons.
