SrARTASDuEc, S. c., Aug. 25, 1856.
Gentlemen Your very kind invitation
to attend your Temperance Mass Meeting
and Pic Mic on the 23d September, has
just come to hand, for which you will
please accept my thanks.
I do, really, very much regret that my
other engagements render it out of the oucs-
tion for mo to attend your meeting. Ny
heart has been long in the Temperance
movements of the country, and 7, this dav,
feel as mach interested in the cause rs
ever did. 1t is the cause of humanity, and,
until it triumphs, our country must suffer
to an extent which no man can calculate.
TO suppose that the triumph is to be effect
ed while the temptation to drink is at every
hotel, muster ground and still house, is idle.
The thoughtless aud the giddy head will be
deIuded! oy the temptation, in spite of the
pest resolutions, or the strongest legal re-
straints, that may be imposed upon the traf-
fic for such seems to be incident to the
fallen nature of our race. To save us
from the vice, the temptation must be re-
moved. The failure Of the great Washing
tonian revival, and all the kindred efforts
made by the good men Of the country, full
ly proves this. Former movements have
done much, very much good. Ardent spir.
its are no longer necessary article Of en-
tcrtainment at the social board vast mum.
bers of young men rcnounce their use and
boldly set their faces against it. The mass
OF our ladies no longer pledge with the
wine, and the Church has set it's seal upon
it. But there is still vast army of drunk
ards tha! can never be reformed unless the
temptation be removed from them, who
would be the first to bless us for a ProhiJi
tory law, by which, not cnly they would be
saved, but the m,ltitudes that cannot bt
numbered, who, under their influence, would
fall into their ranks, would never take tho
first step. Prohibition must now be oul
motto. The temptation must be removed
and, therefore, no man he allowed to make
or sell spirits to be used at the place sold.
1repest that l regret my inability to 10.
with you. May your meeting be barmoni
Gus and blest with the best results. .c,a
