the branches of education necessary to fit a

Inc London Times says that Frankfort
advices mention that a meeting of American
bondholders was recently called there by
Mr. Lanier New York banker, which was
largely attended. Mr.. Laner stated that he
had moi come 10 borrow, as his countrymen

lhe Government, but TO make some commu-
niea'lons about present facts and future pros
pecls, the Secretary of the Treasury having
desired him to do so during his stay in Eu-
rope Mr.. Lanier stated that as large impor-
'atlons were required for the South, a largo
revenue from customs was probable.
lie also stated that Congress at its next
session will probably sanction export duties
on cotton, tobacco, &c, by which additional
revenue of sixty millions would be raised
II was the intention of the Secretary of the
treasury to take up specie as soon as posi-.
ble' with reduction of paper currency next
spring. The meeting expressed great doubts
whether export or large import duties would
answer the purpose, the views on these sub
lects being entirely of an opposite character
in Europe, where export duties are abolish
ed, and import duties reduced to the lowest
point Above all, the advantage was urged
OF setting aside certain revenues for the
gradual extinction of paper currency.

THE TEMPERANCE CAUSE.

Though not in close communion with any
OF the Temperance organization of the day,
we nevertheless feel deeply interested in
their success, and shall always give the ser-
wee OF our columns to the upr0oting of that |
Upas tree, intemperance, whose deadly fruit |
continues to embitter the peace of so many |
otherwise happy families. We contend |
however that it is the duty of the leaders in |
the Temperance Reform to take higher
ground than they have yet taken, and 10 see
to it that their principles are not to be laid
aside, when mere party interests, that are
paltry in comparison, demand the unseemly
sacrifice.
fho Sunday Temperance meetings that
have been held during the last three months,
have kept the subject before the public some
what prominently. The speeches have
sometimes been unusually good, and at other
times, more pointed than pleasant. Still, as
MI Cunningham said last Sunday, if it is
intended by this effort to hurt the traffic,
they who enter the ring must lay their
gloves aside. 1t is always gratifying to the
philanthropist to see men thoroughly in
earnest when engaged in any good work, and
the lsbors of Mr.. Quigley and those who
have been associated with him in keeping
up the Sunday meetings have certainly
merited'the thanks of the citizens generally.
At present the various Temperance organi
cations are laboring with commerdable zeal

discrimination to fight to the last The Good
Templars, an organization of later date but

The Alliance, composed of the rank and
fle OF the army, proposes to cover the entire
ground, to dispossess the enemy of every
ioothold he now occupies, and to redeem

the various branches of the christian church.
must, If they are in earnest certainly pre-.
vail. The Alliance movement, calculated as
it is to embrace all classes of the community
and directed by men of experience, energy,
and influence, can hardly fail of success
The forming of this Association at this par.
ticular time supplies want that has been
keenly felt. We trust therefore that this
Association will be duly appreciated, and
generously sustained. The Executive Com
mittee of the Alliance, and Special Com.
mittee from the Sons of Temperance have
engaged lecturer, who is to address the
citizens of Wilmington on Sunday next for

a company under the title of the New York
Accidental Insurance Company, which in
sures against accidents of every kind. y nv
are convinced of the necessity Of taking ont
policy, but hesitate TO do so, becaus. Of

exist in the country. Edward Belts, ESD,

him letter of enquiry, as to the character
and standing of those composing the Board
