SONS OF TEMPERANCE.

From communication that appears in
this paper, it will be seen that Division OF
the Sons Of Temperance has been organized
at this place. We are glad to record the
dawning of any movement, that has ior its
object the moral and social Improvement of
our people, and our friends may rely upon
a willingness in us, to'contribute our! mite
to the success of The Cause, whenever an
opportunity occurs wherein our assistance
may be of service to them. The importance
Of Temperance in all things, and especially
in regard to ardent spirits, is admitted by
every one, and when an effort is ma lie that
promisesto to further the great cause, il de-.
.mands at Tie hands of tho entire communi.
ty interested, their cordial support and en-
courage Cmcnt. Those at the head of the
enterprise are men of energy-thcy evince
great enthusiasm in tile matter /; and we
earnestly hope that their praiseworthy zeal
may not be without IFS reward. 80"
On Wednesday evening last, we listened
to an address from the Grand Worthy Pa
trarch Of the State, w. THURLow CASTOR,
Esq, on the subject of prohibition" His ar.
guments in support OF the consti,utionallty
OF the measure, were very clear and forci'
bic, and his remarks thi oughout were char
acterized by great force of reasoning, and n
logical demonstration Of facts, that could
not fail to impress every one who listened
to the discourse. That remedy is needed,
none can deny, but whether the one propos-
ed Is proper and expedient, we leave for the
consideration Of wiser heads than ours
The experiment has been tried in various
sections of the Union, but wheihet lis sue
cess was commensurate with the wishes and
expectations Of its friends, I'VE are not suffi-
cicntly enlightened TO say.

SUMMARY.

Our readers will find in this number of
the LEDGER, n very interesting letter from
Kansas. Coming, rs il does, directly from
the seat of civil strife--from nm eye witness
and from participation in the stirring affairs
OF the Territory, it cannot iaii 10 be read
with interest" Our latest telegraphic re-.
ports from that quarter are rather Vague and
indefinite. 1t appears, however. that the
United States troops arc very active in dis
banding oil armed parties, without regard to
the sections from which they come, and il
is to be hoped that they will eventually sue
ceed in queAing' aIl disturbances.
We invite attention to our Congressional
news. C,l. KETT, from This State, and
BURLISGAME, member from Massac husetts,
were the actors iE very spicy debate in
which the former accused the latter Of false
hood The speech Of Senator Evans, III dc.
tending South Carolina against the foul as.
persiohs ofrhc abolition Senator, from Mas
sachusetts, is very highly spoken OF. We
may be enabled I'd give it TO our readers.
The news from England 10 important. -
The suspense is at length ended-ibe fact
of CnAaPToS's dismissal has been officially
announced TO the English Government, and
as expected, the indulgence produced no
little excitement. Mr.. DALLAS dismissal is
loudfy taiked'of, aud the public demons,ra.
tions are certainly warl,ke; but the great
mass of the people are represented ms being
opposed to war. Full accounts Of the
above, SO Gar as received, win be found III
our columns. I" go
The Grand Jury has presented Mr..
Brooks for his assault upon Mr. Sanuer.---

After he finished, DR.. Ward arose and
made few pertinent remarks, which were
full Of life and good sense. He commenced
by declaring himself the sworn and deadly
enemy ofthat "spltlip, pop-skul', KLINE
quick, whip>witc juice called-whskey.
1t is my opinion that he "ssorter shook the
bear skin little, and sorter didn't shake it a
littlc," from the numbers of persons, on both
aides of the house, who sighed the papers,
thus signifying their intention of uniting
with our our ever blessed order. There
were TWELVE LADIES WHO were possessed of
sufficient courage to come out from among
the world, and pledge themselves to "taste
not, touch not, handle not the uncean thing"

After the bencd;ction was pronounced,
the Division adjourned TO NEE. again the
next morning at 9o'clock. "
Tho Division MET on Thursday morning,
according to adjournment, when iscveh taidica
