DR.. f. r. LEES
On Temperance I'm America.

We find IN the Alliance England
Neas, a full report of a speech de-
livered by DIR. LEES, before the
'Dumfriesshire and KIrkcudbrlght-
shire Abstalners' Union," the main
topic being the temperance question
in America. We give extracts from
this interesting speech of . close OBJ
server and acute thinker.
After alludIng to the time eleven
months) he hsd spent in the Uni
ted States, and the distance he had
travelled, some 20 600 miles, with a
few remarks on the prevalence Of
intemperance, and the results, be
said :
sour question to our representa-
tives to Parliament should be this /:
Do you know how to treat this So
cial disorder as intelligent physi-
clans ?-if you don't, give place to
those who do. He r~ecollected well,
when the temperance agitation or
iginateJ, men persisted In attempts
ing to achieve reform, as Mr.. Glad
stone bad persisted, by gong onthe
track of licensing, In the delusIon
that the more easy it was to obtain
liquor, the more sober people would
become. There was another policy
in this matter, and 1t was put be.
fore the politicians and members of
Parliament, but, unfortunately, it
had not been adopted, because the
people had allowed merely party
considerations to influence them at
the polling booth, and so things re-
manned very much as they we're
Well, what was that poiIcy? Ii
was abstinence for the individual,
land for the community prohibition
of the liquor traffic. (Applause.)--
That was our programme, and we
would not desert it, because we
thought we understood the ques-
ton, and believed that truth would
ultimately prevail. (Applause.)-
What did the politicians say IN re-
gard to this suestion? 1--WE are in
PRODUCING a grand scheme of ma
tional education" they said "this
will regulate the matter, and you
won't need prohibition" Well, We
had in America a country where ma
tional education had existed for two
or three generations ; but there the
evil was all toe. same. Another
class of POLITICIANS would have the
people receive more political power.
Well, That, too, had been tried in
America. The social reformers
urged a closer attention. to sanitary
conditions ; and political economists
asked for such measures as would
raise the wages of the people, for
poverty raj the cause of drunken
ness. Well, we have no poverty IN
America, except self-made, and it is
drInk~made. 1t is not poverty,
therefore, that is the cause Of in
temperance. The social reformers
spoke of the condition of our towns,
and of our working classes living in
miserable houses, breathing vitiated
AIR, and they said that was the
cause of their poverty. We'll, be

The Curse Universal.

Can any member Of any family
in. the country truly say, "NoEc of
my connexions have ever been
drunkards." There may be a few
individuals who can say SO, but
they r exceptions to the general
rule. The question, then, of the
suppression of the dram-shop ad-
dresses itself to every family in the
land. Parents and guardians q
weight of responsibility rests upon
you, and if the heads of families
would act as they should on this
subject, fewer fathers and mothers
would have occasion to mourn over
hopes blasted by the incompetence

The Conservative. (M'connelsville, Ohio) 1866-1871, 1870-11-25

All, probably, + aware that the
hills that hedge in the river are full
of coal, that a certain amount OF
salt is produced by the Furnaces
that III along Its banks, and that
the adjacent country abounds in
coal, and has considerable oleagin-
Gus resources. But there are few
persons that know of the existence
OF what some day may be a great
er inducement to capltallts to Inc
vest their means in enterprises a.
long this Valley than all these.
We learn from n who has sunk
Eve salt wells along this Valley, and
who Is acquainted with the history
OF all our salt wells, that the whole
basin of the Musklngum is support
ed by an immense strata of White
and Variegatcd Marble, ranging IN
thickness from thirty to sixty feet.
This marble, as evidenced by The
borings, is of very superior quail.
ty, being absolutely devoid of grit,
and so hard that but from eighteen
inches to two feet progress could be
made in it in "a hours drilling, by
horsepower, with a drlll-bar weigh
ing 1870 pounds and $40 feet of poles
on top of 1t. Three miles above
McConnelsville, this Marble-rock,
as 1t is called by all the elderly salt
men, is reached At a depth of 400
feet and, as the Muskingum VAL
Icy basin is made up of stratas of
rocks standing in the position of an
inclined PLAIN, cropping out here
and there and supported by others,
this sMarble-rock' could be found,
as far up the river as what is known
as the Blue Rock coal banks, at a
distance of 200 feet from the sur
face /; and, undoubtedly, farther up
the Valley, it eoulI be found at a
much shorter distance.
Besides this Immense strata of
marble, in boring some of these
wells, large veins Of coal have been
discovered at distances of 100 and
200 feet below the surface-those at
200 being six feet IN thickness, or
almost double the thickness of the
best Blue Rock veins.
When it is remembered that the
great coal beds of England, which
are nearest the surface, are about
1850 feet below the surface, ano
that they are mined with profit, is
1t unreasonable to suppose that this
immense bed of marble and these
huge deposits of coal, will some day
be called into use, and that they
will be the means of building up a
large trade here on the Muskingum
But, should such be the case, or
should II not. there is no doubt as
to the value of the Muskingum IT-
.roTement, and that it will ever be
the means, If kept up, of cheaper
ing trelghts on AL commodities that
are imported here or exported from
here. Moreover, it shonld be the
means of inviting capital to locate
amidst our bills.

If liquor selling is a necessary
and legitimate business, why at
tempt TO restrain 1t by license, or in
any form +? Why put a tax on it?
Why is not every man allowed to
sell IN any quantity or in any way?
If restraint is necessary at all, # by
prohibition some good is af-
then 1t follows that by total
prohibition much more good would
be aceomplished.-[Ex.

WASHINGTON, March 16.-A dele
CATION Of eal0red men from Georgia
had an interview with the President.
Their object was to obtain his infiu-
ence toward. the defeat of hIr. Bing-
hams amendment to the Georgia bill,
the adoption Of which, they asserted,
would destroy the benefits 10 the citi-
zens Of their race in Georgia from the
adoption of the Constitutional amend
ments. They also urged the Presi-
dent to give them his favor in procu-
ring proper legislation toward securing
the rights Of cOlored people in that
State.
The President said that he felt an
interest in affOrding full protection TO
to all classes of citizens in all States OF
the Union, and thought that proper
legislation should be directed to this
evil, even if it were further in the
South than In ordinary cases, consid-

The rahan Questionable Attack on Prim--
A Mason Refused the Rites Of the Church.

MADRID, March 16.-There is a
fierce controversy in progress here on
the best method of dispOsing of the
Cuban question. Some journals make
bold TO argue in favar of abandoning
the island to the United States. This
proposition is bitterly opposed by the
majority as cOwardly and unpatriotic.
In the Cortes yesterday, General
Prim, in answer to an inquiry as TO
the circumstances of the attack on him
in the streets, states that the mob sur
rounded him shouting "DOwn with
conscription," and threw stones at
him. He declared that in future the
Government would deal summarily
with such disorders.
The funeral of Prince Henri de
Bourbon was conducted by Free
Masons, of which order deceased was

brought to the church, the officiating

of the church and refused to perform
the religious ceremonies. No troops
took part in the procession which fol-
lowed the remains to the grave.
