Temperance Lecture.
Prof. S. NJ. Hewlett, the celebrated
Temperance Lecturer, writes US from Oska'
,oosa, under date of October 18th, thai
sometime between the Sth and l4th of thi:
month, he will address the people of Council
Bluffs, on the subject of Temperance. W.
hone our citizens will give him big house
Due notice will be given of the time anc
place. Prof. HEWLETT will also speak a
Omaha, and other points below. Hon. }
C. DoBBIy, of North Carolina, ex-Secretary
of the Navy, thus speaks of this gentleman
"He is a Little Giant in his peculiar way
His power is in ridicule; he places himsel
in the position of liquor imbiber or license
upholder, argues as they argue, and makes
them appear in ridiculous position; il
whatever he says, he snakes smiles from
reason fow." As mimic he is unsurpassed
whether as real Irishman, he gives tn
unadulterated Celtic discoorse, or as /
Frenchman, when attempting the jaw-twist
ing English, he confounds gender, number
person and case his limitations are perfect
His looks tells story--each wrinkle on hi
face contains an anecdote-the twinkle O
his eye propounds query, and if there is
ludicrous point in any argument, be viii
bring it out"
Knaves and Fools.
Everybody that does not entirely agree in opinio
with that mighty man of the Bugie-LYSANDER W
B,BBITT-vlde Bugie of the 27th.-NonPdreH Q
Oct 3)th'
The who penned the above is both a knave and
fool knave, because he Knowingly puts falls
construction upon article. fool, because he Cal
that such a course Injuries himself more than
docs us-Bugie Of Nor. 3D.
Certainly-and we here have the proc
that our conclusions Of October 3Oth wer
correct, and legitimately deduced from tn
premises laid down by the Bugle of the 27t
Of October. Our opinion was at varianc
with that Of ye great BABBITT, in regard t.
the idea he meant to convey in his articl
of the 9th, and therefore we are both knav
and fool in his estimation. We have n
right to complain, he has nobly come to tn
relief our of unsupported assertions" ant
We breathe freer. He is very solicitous les
We may pursue course injurious to ourself
but we would here say to him, that whel
We hire him to assist in the editorial con
duct of the Nonpareil, it will be time enougI
for him to look after our interests. Til
then, We hope he will content himself wit
blowing his own brazen hebdomidal-i
which pursuit We think he will find use 70
all his latent as We well a, patent talent
and verbosity.
