which although a valuable remedy in skilful hands,

American citizen. [volume] (Butler, Butler County, Pa.) 1863-1872, 1865-07-26
Communications.

For some time past, our paper has been
favored with humber of Communica-
tions on the important question of Tenn
perance. One on the same subject is found
in our present number Intelligent read
ers understand that Editors are not pre-
sumed to endorse every thing that cores
pondents write. On this question we
wish to say this that we can truly SYM
patize with those who, having seen the
evil effects of intemperance upon those
around them, speak even harshly of the
tra6c in intoxicating drinks. Still we
are not of those who feel warranted in
calling by hard names all those engaged
in the business. Some of the villages in
our county have suppressed the use Of
intoxicating drinks altogether. We are
free to coIfess that such localities seem
to enjoy better state of society than
others, where drunkenness abounds.
We have no donbt, however, that many
landlords, who feel constrained to keep
drinks in conformity to custom, would
much prefer that their use was discon-
tinued altogether. When any general
effort is made, therefore, to discontinue
its use altogether, whatever influence the
Citizen may have shall be used on the
side OF what we regard great reform
For the present, we leave it in the hands
of correspondents, who shall still be well
come to Cur columns SO long as their eff
fots are aimed at the cause of SO much
misery and Suffering in our land; and
Wa believe their motives to be pure
Hoping that the day is NOT Er distant
when all shall see alike in this matter
This is not the age for Phylanthropists to
American citizen. [volume] (Butler, Butler County, Pa.) 1863-1872, 1865-07-26

despair. FIVE short years ago, four mil
lions of human beings were held in bond

Grafton, to be seen above the political ho-
rizon. But with the fetters being forged
for the enslavemeut of some eighteen
million more; and these of "a superior
race" What a change has FIVE years wro't?
To-day the chain of the slave is, practic-
ally, no where to be seen. While we are
thus moving with lightning speed in one
department Of progress, shall we despair
of any other necessary reform? Certainly
not: In the meantime we would advise
our Temperance friends to be moderate,
and exercise liberal charity to all, and
all will yet be we'll
American citizen. [volume] (Butler, Butler County, Pa.) 1863-1872, 1865-07-26

There are many persons whose chief
power is shown in holding ON to their old
opinions. Their tenacity is amazing. =
Through thick and thin, through dark
ness and light, they stick to notion that
they once embrace. Strength Of argu-
ment aud change of conditions make no
difference with them. Or, if it make a
difference, it is only to make them cling
the more closely to their old noticns.--
Men in danger of drowning will catch at
straws. They will do worse than this /;
they will seize a. root .at the bottom of
the stream and hold to it. This strange
infatuation appears most remarkably in
the unhinching obstinacy with which
many adhere to their old sentiments on
slavery.
We can make some allowance, on the
score of pecuniary interest and hereditary
sentiment, for those who have owned
slaves and have been supported by them
ever since they were born. But for
those who have viewed the subject only
as one of political interest, these pallia-
tions afford no excuse. The evils which
the institution has inflicted on the coun
try have been demonstrated by the late
horrid rebellion. 1t has cost necatombs
of lives and millions of money; it has
debased and darkened the intellect and
conscience of immense numbers of peo-
pie it has crowded patriotism out of the
minds OF citizens and humanity out OF
the hearts of men it has imperled our
national existence and our republican in
stitutions. And yet though all this is
demonstrated, some have the same senti-
ments in regard to the institution that
they had before the rebellion began, and
would be glad to see it reinstated IN its
pristine position and political influence
This is being true to the scent which
would be highly creditable to the canine
followinga fox through swamp and slough
through briar and brake.
Whether there is any hope connected

do not deserve. AS you take "retro-
spective" view of your past life, you must
feel that the execration of all humanity is
upon you, and as you rcad these resolu-
tions you must ':tz~y'it the rope Of Jus
tire Tightening around your neck, and we
do not wonder that you shrank back agast
at your crime and refused to hang your.
self. We cheerfully excuse you for not
publishing our resolutions it would have
been inconsistent with your "Retrospect." 7"
Had it been some account of desertions
from our army, some defeat of our army

some failure of our iron-clads, some hang
ing of an Abolition preacher, some New
York Riot, or some "Observer" mourning
over the fall of Richmond, we would have
expected you to publish it but we would
have you to remember that thing not
published. in gour paper, is only the more
