HNTEMPERANCE.

WILMINGTON, March 2Sth, 1871.
When look around mo and see the
many exile existingin our midst, which
are brought on by the Use of intoxicat-
ing liquors, by young men whose stand
ing IL society might, and would be of
the highest moral character, and by men
OF ripper age, whose families move in the
highest society. am led to ponder well
the reason why this detestable and most
injurious evil is so much INDUCED in;
and why 1t is that so many intelligent
and otherwise prudent men will persist
in the abominable practice of imbibing
to excess in spurious liquors. Is it be
cause they have no pride of character,
and no self-rcepect, or esteem for their
dear wives and children, for whose vel.
fare they are responsible to God, not on
~ IN this world, but in the world to
come, for the treatment they receive at
their hands, when under the influence of
Intoxicating liquor7 We can see every
day the difference between those who in
their youth knew how to appreciate and
appropriate properly the kind advice
and virtuous restraints of tenn erate par
ents ana preceptors, and those who from
some mistaken notions of ferocious dis
sipation, hurl from them with disdain all
the wholesome precepts set before them
by moral and temperate parents. We

In the world, to the highest degree of
eminence and renown, occupying seats
in our legislative halls, enactlng and
transacting laws for the benefit and Sc
curity of our nation. and occupying sta
tons in our sacred pulpits, expounding
the blessed oracles of God to their fellow
men, beloved by them, and idolized by
observation-disclosures those who are to be
seen prowling about every sink of in
iquity, with no companions except those
OF their own dissipated character, drag
out miserable existence, despised by
III genteel society, disgrace to thsil
friends, and burden to themselves.
When look at both sides OF the ques-
lions, and draw the contrast between the
evil and the good, arising from the prac.
teal influence of temperance, and tna'
of its opposite evil, feel constrained by
a sense of duty to exclaim, so, that Goo
would incline our hearts to the practics
and enjoyment of temperance, and tC
inquire. Who hath woe? who hath sor

"They that tarry long at the wine; they
that go to seek mixed wine; therefore,
let us not look upon the wine when it is

cuses, when at the same time they were
soliciting others to jon, while they stood

which they render excuse by saying
