were too drunk to know whether they

little moving toward enforcing the

THE GOOD TEMPLARs.-Thc Ben
nington Banner thus speaks oft the LODI
&c of Good Templars in that village:
The lodge is in most tlourishing
condition, and is doing great amount
of good. Men-and numbers of them
oo-who but few months ago spent
every cent they could earn for rum,
leavinti their families to get along as
best they might, have been throughly
reformed by the Good Templars, and
now go about our streets with healthy
countenanccs and Upright, manly step.
There are many such instances. And
we say frankly, and without fear of
successful denial, that the Bennington
Good Templars, as an organization,
have done more for the promotion of
their existence, and saved more men
from the clutch, than all the Maine
Laws ever enacted, or attempted to be
prosecuted. We are convinced fully that
the Main Laws is a little too much like
reforming Il man by knocking him
down with hard wood club, and had
rather see one temperance organization
in our midst, believing in moral suasion
than a score Of cOnYtabulary officers,
whose legal ideas of reforming man
are embraced in pair of handouts and
the county jail.
PROCToRSvILLE.--OnS Sunday eve last
while the hotel-keeper at Proctorsvillc,
ii. a. Howe, with his wife and child,
was returning from the residence of his
daughter in Chester, in covered car
riage drawn by two horses, his horses
became frightened at the swinging
and unsafe condition of the highway
bridge above GassettS, while crossing
it, broke the pole of the carriage, the
tugs still holding firm. Approaching
the railroad crossing one line broke,
which drew them around and across the
track, and finally rearing and pitching
horses, carriage and all, down the en-
bankment, distance of fifteen feet.
Though thrown from the carriage in
| this unccrcmonious manner Mr.. Howe
had the presence of mind to jump upon
the horses as they lay tangled in the
harness, and thus held them down till
assistance came and relieved him. Mrs.
Howe and child happened so to strike
the ground in this fearful leap so as not
materially to injure them; but the car
riagc looks as though it might have
been in the conflict before Richmond,
when Mcclellan changed his base" q
few years ago.
