ADDRESS.

The JotloRing Address Was prepared under hs DE-
rtction Of a Committee appointed By Wilmington
Divisisa, No. /, Sons Of Temperance.
TO the Citizens Of Wilmington:
In view Of the fact that the vice of lntemper-
ance with its inevitable cOncomitants of poverty,
crime, misery, bodily degenerac5, mental inca
pacity and moral turpitude, is as prevalent
among us to-day, as at any former period, and
is constantly extending its circle of ruin, sweep
ing into its destructive vortex your fathers, hus
bands sons, and brothers, involving all who
love them in the bitterness of blasted hopes, the
pangs Of cold neglect ard cruel want, aud the
terrible anguish Of heart broken despair and
knowing that it is in your power, were you fully
aroused to the necessity for action, materially to
aid in arresting the onward flow of this dark and
fearful tide, which threatens to over whelm us
with individual danger, domestic grief, socal
debAVement, and National ruin, we feel it to be
an imperative duty to address you on this i'm
pOrtant subject.
We are the more foroibly urged to tho fulfil
ment Of this duty, because OF the activity OF the
enemies Of Temperance, aud the bolduess and
audaoity which they display in their efforts to
subvert morality and advance the interests of
the ruin traffic. By insidiOusly poisoning the
minds of our young men with specious but de.
lusive teachinge, and enticing them to enter the
pathways Of vice through gilded portals, beyond
which are walls decorated with paintings, mar
bic bars and silver fountains TO please the eye,
sweet music to ravish the ear, and social plea.
sures to beguile the passing hOurs-they induce

Tina NEW MAGNESIUM LI0HT.-The great
difficulty which has hitherto stood in the way of
the uIiiisation of this wonderful light has been
the want Of some means for its easy applicat op.
This difficulty now appears to be entirely sur
mounted. AIR. A. @. Grant, an American gem
tleman, resident ut Nottingham, has patented an
apparatus which effects in the simplest manner
the object in vioW. The wire is coiled on spools
and thence is draEn between cylinders to tube
through which it is thrust at precisely the rate
at which it burns. Nothing can be more simple
and etIectual. Tho apparatus will form either
hand laup or may be applied for other purpo-
ses, such as the lighting Of theatres, the making
of fog signals, or signals Of any kiud. The hand
lamp will be especially useful to photographers
BY its assistance, they will be able to take por-
traits in less time ut night by the mHgnesium
light than they can now in the daytime by the
sun There is variety of other purposes for
which the light will be useful now that it can be
readily applied. Tho increasing cheapness OF
the magnesium wire will soon cause il to be gen
orally adopted in all cases where most brill
liant light is required, aud the lamp Invented by
MIR. Grant will materially assist in its advance
