A glorious Temperance meeting was held
at this place last evening in Andrews Hall.
J. X. Osgood, Esq, had been invited by sew
eral of the citizens 10 visit and address our
people. He came last evening full of zeal
and hope. A large audience assembled to
listen to him. The meeting was called to or
Thomas Kendrick, Esq, was called to preside.
Mr.. kepdrick in a few appropriate remarks ac-
cepted the trust, and called upon Mr.. Randall
to offer prayer. The meeting was then ad-
dressed by Judge Hall of Rockland, Hon.
Joshua Nye and Mr.. Osgood. A pledge was
prepared and in few minutes over one hun
dred and fifty names were attached to it. The
list was headed by Thomas Kendrick, Esq,
amid the deafening applause of the audience.
He was followed in quick succession by nu-
merous others, some of whom had been faith
full servants of King Alchohofebut who earn
estly rebelled against longer continuing
under his power. A reform club was organized
with the following officers. Francis Kendrick
Esq, President; vice-Presidents, Lorenzo
Dow, L. S. Page, SIS. Brown; +. M. Tot
man, Secretary and Treasurer. The meeting
then adjourned to meet at the same place on
Monday evening to perfect the organization,
and appoint delegates to the Convention OF
| reform clubs to be held at Augusta next week.
The meeting was perfect success, and bids
fair for large and energetic club in this
place. Men have taken hold of this work
who will make it 20. Several who were moi

Perhaps it is a little late in the day, but l
would like to ask through the columns ofyour

nifty in various ways. Let the tax be one dol
lar on each dog, then every owner who cares
anything for his dog would be willing to pay
the license fee and we should be rid of host
of nasty, yelping nuisances about our streets
which should be devoted first to repairing
damage done by licensed dogs to sheep and
other property, and the residue to the support
of schools, libraries or other public buildings.

GOOD SENSE At COLUMBUS.

owe arc told.n said Gen. Thomas Ewing, in
his speech the other night at Columbus, "that
MIR. Greeley has abused the Democracy with
ont measure. Giving him credit for SIN
I" cer;tv then as now, / would rather support
"tbh ontspoken, honest, and earnest man,
" with all bis past hostility TO the Democracy,
:" than any statesman who from motives Oh
" self-expedency stood dumb spectator Oh
." the great conflict, and therefore SAID no nara
things TO be quoted" This is sensible as
well as manly. What wretched worid thiS
would be if enemies could never become
friends, and an honest fight could never DO
followed by a frank and hearty reconcilia-
ton. When Mr.. Greeley vas waging war
against The principles of the Democratic party,
he was, as Gen. Ewing says, always in the
thickest of the fight. He never concealed his
sentiments, and the bitterest OF his adversarles,
we believe, never accused him of hypocrisy.
And if he said hard things of the Democrats,
they said things quite as hard of him. But IN
tbe course of history we have reached time
when Mr. Greeley and the Democracy can
agree Neither sacrifices principle; but the
old issues are settled; the ends which Mr.
Greeley sought to accomplish, the overthrow
OF Slavery ana tne cSldDhSimcho VI oi"''
rights, are already secured; the Democratic
party accepts the result; what reason is there
then why these old adversalies should not be
at peacel There is no plank in the Cincm-
natl platform which both cannot honorably
and consistently adopt
But reconciliation is something which the
Grant Republicans cannot understand. They
made a collection of Mr. Greeleys sharp say
ings against the Democracy of former years,
and sent it to the Baltimore Convention As
if the Convention cared Let the dead past
bury its dead; the duties of the new party
are with the present and the future; its first
and noblest task is to heal the wounds of the
war, and allay the sectional animosities which
the Administration is doing so much to aggra-
vate aud prolong.
New-York tribune., 1872-08-02
THE NORTH CARoLIYA ELECTION

The returns do not yet warrant any positive
statement about the result in North Carolina.
1t is clear that there has been
a very heavy vote, that there has
been no serious disorder, and that the
cities first heard from show unexpected
Liberal Republican and Democratic gains
But, on the other hand, one or two
losses are reported from the west,
where we reckoned only ON gains;
and it is possible that the gains
in the cities may prove deceptive, being
caused by the return Of negroes to their cOun-
try places of registry where they are now for
the first time required to vote.
The indications however are that the negro
vote has either fallen of, or been little di-
yided. There seems no reason to doubt that
the white vote, especially in the Western
part of the State, is unprecedent-
edly heavy; and the probabilities
therefore point strongly to an Administration
defeat. When Raleigh shows a Liberal Re-
publican and Conservative gain of $50 over
the vote In 1870, when the Democrats
carried the State; when Weldon shows a
similar gain of IS, and Beaufort, overrun as it
has been witlr negroes, a clear majority of 25,
ana one w dIU III w llluiuSOoh ~ b"h VI Ao.t
the scattered returns certainly give some
hint of general popular movement
sufficient to sweep the State. Returns
received after the hour of this writing (2:15
a. m.) may change the aspect; but our present
Judgment is that the indications clearly point
to the election of Merrimon, and the rout of
the Grant Administration on the first field OF
the campaign. 1t is field we could have af-
forded TO lose but they cannot.
But little can yet be gathered as to the re-
suits in the doubtful districts on the vote for
Congressman. 1t is clear that the With. With
and With Districts have been carried by the
Liberals and Democrats. In the Yth District,
where Mr. Settle, late President of the Pbila-
delpbia Convention, was a candidate, the prob
ability seems to be that he is defeated by
a small majority. The four districts on
tho eastern side of the State have been gen

A COMMON STORY.


A suggestive example of the lack both of
common sense and humanity in our present
system of treatment of convicts was given
last week in Philadelphia. Two men, Mara
and Dougherty, some time ago were committed
to the Penitentiary for an attempted brutal
assassination Both, through political infiu-
ence were pardoned by Gov. Geary few
months since. Now, the point to which we
wish to call attention is the utter inetiiciency
of tho treatment which society awarded to
these men, not only to amend them, but to
protect itself. Instantly, upon the commission
of their crime, the costly machinery of po-
lice force, courts, judges, lawyers, and juries
is set to work upon them; they take their
places in an expensive establishment in
corps of criminals, for whose support and Sc
clusion the community is more heavily taxed
than for the education of its youth.
But what is done to remove these cOnvicts
out of the dangerous classes into the order of
useful law-abidng citizens2 An Intellectual
effort is made to teach them trade, it Is
true. But the natural expectation would be
that this penitentiary, with every other, would
offer itself as a hospital to the Christian world
where every sincere follower of the Great
Teacher would hasten, to strive to heal this
collection of moral leprosy. But the fact is
that this great mass of disease and corruption
of soul and mind is left to the care of hired
and oyerworked chaplain, whose single Efforts
be they ever SO strenuous, must prove inef-
fectual. Upon one of these men the good seed
sowed did, however, yield fruit. Upon receiv-
ing his pardon he gathered his family about
him, showed no sign OF resuming his
drunken habits, but, procuring tools, anxiousy
sought for work at his old trade as carpenter
1t is impossible for him to find it. No shop
will receive him into its doors. The man and
his family, eager and sincere in searching for
honest work, are absolutely reduced by society
to the alternative of starvation or of going
back toE their criminal practices. The other
convict did not waste time with any such
futile and hopeless attempts at virtue. He
went quietly back to his old associates and
habits, and as a sign of the wholesome and
curative effects of prison treatment, made the
first use of his freedom in. numbering his ben
efactor and personal friend, who had procured
his release
The story is one of those texts which preach
its own sermon, and needs no deduction of
ours. There is scarcely. however, costly
palace prison or house of refuge in the coun-
try which does not suggest the question, TO
