MosfGoMEBY, ALA, Sept. 26-The death Of
Gen. James II. Clanton, Chairman of the Dem

heavily draped.
An immense meeting of all parties at the

BanefuIErects of Intemperance,

MEssRs. EDITORS do not intend to tres
pass upon your columns with long, tedious
and dry homily upon the subject of intemper-
anee. That is not my object only, wish to
improve, if possible the sad results of this prac-
tice which occur, now and then, in our COM
munity, to the good of our young men,,
think l can say, truthfully, that, by far,
more than one-half of the fights and the dis
turbances which so often mar our quiet and
bring odium upon our society are attributable
alone to too free use of intoxicating drinks.
Indeed, may go further, and say that more
than one-halfof the murders which occur trace
their desperate origin to this shameful source.
Men are not apt to quarrel and fight when per-
fectly sober. 1t is when their brain is excited
Nth liquor. They then lose all self-respect,
miss their equipoise, and plunge into sudden
ruin. We have recently had most
lamentable proof of this in our midst Liquor
was at the bottom of the sad affair That did
the horrible mischief and sent a human being
to his grave. He had no time for thought or
preparation for his long journey. In moment,
IN hetwinkling of an eye, he was hurried into
the presence of his Maker. What a thought?
[ am not, in this article, attaching blame to one
more than another. How far they were both
stepped in the 'hellish poison" it is not for me
to say, but itwas the poison, obviously that de-
throned the reason and deprived a fellow man
of his precious life. 1t is fearful warning to
others, and especially to those who are in the
habit of resortiDg to The many; drinking saloons
which are known to exist in this city.
Now, l have no disposition, at present, to
make war upon these dangerous places. The
men occupying them contend that they are do
ing legitimate business, and in the sense of the
law, they are. They pay their license or tax
for the privilege. 1t is, therefore, the State,
and not the men, who is to blame in this matter.
The liquor traffic is LegGlized, as much SO in
deed, as the selling of goods. Not until the
State has the moral courage to do right in this
matter, and thus declare the liquor bushes IL
legal, will men cease to sell it to the drunkard

CITY LIFE.-A carefully prepared arti-
Gle in the Courier deS EtdS UniS contains
the following statements:
There are not less than ten thousand
families in New York whose annual ex-
penditures for mere livelihood are at an
average of $4,000 that there are one thou
sand who spend from S25, 900 to $4,000; ;
that from sixty to seventy families go to
the extreme of from SIC, 900 to 100000. The
main motive prompting this extravaganza
is the overweening ambition for notorieiy,
as as seen in the fact that so many live in
hotels in New York in the winter, and in
summerat popular resorts, amid every form
of discomfrrt, at an expense greater than
is requisite to keep up the most princely
palatial establishments of European noble
men. OF all the thousands thus living,
the writer estimates that not more than
one-third have any permanent, reliable
business on which to depend; the remain
der consisting of spectators and adven-
turers, who may in a week be left without
resources.
