From the PROGRESS

From the Progress.
Reforms are on the increase everywhere
but are more vigorously prosecuted in
the quiet places of the land. They carry
influence and weight when led on by
prominent men at the central points of
political and social power Such is the
condition OF the Temperance cause at the
present time And the whole country
should rejoice that Temperance prevails
in the most prominent place at the Ma

adhercnts some of our most noted men.

staunch apostle of Temperance, in a late
address, said:
"In spite of much that is discouraglng

There was FIVE times as much drinking
in Congress when he entered the Senate,
fourteen years ago, as there is now. And
those that now come into congress from
the South have not brought SO much with

from the National Capitol. This is
new thing and a great Improvement.
There are also six thousand pledged tenn

of the dram shops have also been closed.
"And he thanked God that we now
have a President of these United States

BERLIN, Aug. 31.-Prominent men OF all parties
met last night and put forth the following addresses
to the German people and to the King:-
CALL TO THE GERMAN PEOPLE.
While the armed portion of the people on foreign
soil warding of the attack intended for us and
sealing their victorious course with their hearts
blood, diplomacy of foreign powers is preparing at
the decisive moment to impose on us the conditions
Of peace. Once before after the glorious struggles
of ISIS and 1S14, the German people have lost
through the jealousy OF other nations the full re-
ward of their victories and the fulhlment of
their most ardent wishes. The conquered
pectations; our German boundaries re-
mained in danger and exposed to renewed
we had imposed upon US the weakness of the old
Federal Diet; the guilt OF diplomacy Europe has
duration. When a ike danger is threatening now.
the German people must not remain silent. The
world must learn that rulers and people are re-
free united Empire, with safe and projected bounda
ries. In the address to his Majesty the King ac-
preston Of our sentiments Let the signatures of
all Germans prove that such are the sentiments of
the whole people.
Berlin, Aug. 80, 1870.
Most nlustrious and Gracious King and Lord -
When war became inevitable, the nation uHani-
jesty's allies. 1t vowed faithfully to endure the
struggle for the safety, unity, and greatness of the
German Fatherand. God has blessed our arms,
which have been welded for lust cause with unex-
celled bravery. Streams OF the noblest blood have
been shed to gain the victories, but they have
brought US, with unexpected rapdity, near the goal
before US. Powerful efforts are still required to
fully reach 1t, but the German people are resolved
upon every sacrifice devoted to the highest national
aims. In the midst OF our lofty earnestness
and determination, we alarmed by
eyer-returning rumors of foreign inter-
vention which, powerless to avert the horrors of
war, now endeavOrs to limit the price OF victorious
contests and reduce it to its views The memory OF
what happened after the glorious rising up Of our
fathers still lives within us, and warns Germany
that she must consider n thing but the demands of
her welfare. Therefore, we approach your Majesty
with renewed vows that we will faithfully endure all
until the wisdom OF your Majesty, excluding all
foreign Intervention, shall succeed in establishing
than hitherto the keeping OF the peace the part
of our neighbors, the French people, and which will
establish and place beyond the power of attack the
union and liberty OF the whole German empire
and we remain your Majesty's faithful and loyal
