TEMPERANCE SONG.
Oh. come. CONF AWAY

Oh, come, come away
From all of ardent slirits;
From cup of wine thai sparkling shines,
Oh, come, come away.
Come, come, and joinour social ring,
And with thy presene gladness bring,
That hope bright lay, may sing,
Oh, come. com away.
Oh, come, come away,
And chase the gloomy sadness
From hearts that NOV with throbs of Low,
Oh, come, cone away.
From hearts that beatS for thee alone,
That worship at their Fathers throne,
And pray for their loved one
Oh, come, come away.
Then come, come away
From wine ana its poison.
Thy God doth call for one and all
To come, come away.
Forsake the cap whose fearful blight
Hath withcred many leaves Of light,
And T a1ed red blossoms bright
.... Oh, come, come away.
. Oh, come, come away,
For it is only madness
Thus to hold strife against thy life,
: Day after day. -.
Remember that thy loved ones weep,
And many lone mig ght vigils keep,
While grief drives off their sleep.
... Oh, come. come away.
Oh, come, come away
Why not forsakc the poison.
Why wilt thou drink and only sink
Deeper each day?
Forsakc the cup and be a man,
And show the world that you still can
Resist the foe ofman-
Oh, do not say nay.
Oh, come, come away,
And thou wilt still bring pleasure
TO hearts once sad, but now made glad,
Oh, C ne, come away;
And hearts once more with joy will beat,
For love again renewed is sweet,
-. Oh, cone, come away.

THE SOCIAL RESPONSIBLE.
ITIES OF MAN TO MAN.

An address delivered by w. Il. Mead
before the temperance Society of New
Oregon November 5th 1866, and published
by request of he Society.
The subject for this evening has
been announced an the Social Re-
sponsibility of Man to Man.
When I speak to an audience
that like the one before me repre-
senting the beauty, the virtue land
intelligence of the community, I
hardly nccG5remind them that the
law of the land fully recognizes the
social responsibility of every indi-
7idual member of society. No man
h1S injaPo rige.sii neighabs5i!t Dc that which will
a stone into railway train, freight
ed with its precious cargo of human
beings, il will not do for himstc say
II didn' think" His intellect
declares bis capacity to think, and
the law, both human and divine
holds him responsible for the consc-
quenccs Of his acts.
To you / propose to speak, to-
night, of your responsibilities, So
eially and individually, not only
upon the great evil Of intcmper-
ance, but touching also your other
relations as actors in the drama Of
life.
When we look out upon the world,
taking into our minds eye the
degradation and misery everywhere
brought upon man by indulgence in
the use ofalcoholic' beverages, eve
ry sympathetic heart unites in ask
ing, "what can be done to arrest
the influence, that like strong
dring will destroy all the tenderest
emotions and feelings of the hu-
man hearth Upon the object in
view there is hearty concurrence
of opinion, while the mode of its
accomplishment is not readily un-
derstood, bringing as consequence
great diversity ofthought and action.
It is of the essence of good govern
ment to uphold and protect the
weak. The object oflaw is to re-
strain the wicked, but it's province
is not to WORK the rerornfatlon VI
their victims. That is the province
of the great teachers of morals and
religion. The vindictive punish
ments of law may for time res.
train men from vices, but the grand
object has not been accomplished
short of a reformation among those
| whose misfortune it is, to be addict.
ed to vice. Those orthodox in re-
ligion profess to believe that un'
less a man be WILLING to be saved
he will not be saved. Every days
experience demonstrates, that un
less a man be willing to be saved
from the degrading influences, Of al
alcoholic atmosphere, neither cal
he be saved. -- s.
To drive men in the highway o
temperance or morals, hedgcd in up
on the one hand by law, and upol
the other by public opinion, produce
but temporary relief from the in
roads of intemperance and immoral
ity; gives respite, not areprieve.

convinced Of the pernicious tenden
