I shall, however, in treating this
subject in the absence of authentic
statistical data, be compelled to deal
much in theory, and appeal directly
to your sense of right as to the truth
of my assertions but in all this, the
elements of truth shall be so pal pa
Bile, as to demand and merit your
credence.
In fact most of the evils that are
generally attributed to war are the
Immediate offspring Of intemperence;
and war itself, not unfrequently, can
be traced to the same parentage.
Who does not know the madden
ing and exciting effects upon the hui
man mind and passions produced by al
coholic drinks? and how often, ifdue at
tention We're given to the matter, might
it be proven that nations have been
precipitated into long and bloody
war by the hasty and imprudent acts
of their legislators, whose passions
were excited by undue use Of intoxi-
eating liquors, that might have been
avoided, by wise, sober calm and de-
liberate legislators? ! verify b'l eve
that were we to enter into a close and
earnest investigation of the causes
that have led to the innumerable wars
of the past, that blot the fair pages Of
history, and that have drenched the
earth with the crimson blood of myr-
lads of slain humanity, we would find
that perhaps the greater number of
these had their origin, either directly
or indirectly, in the use Of ardent
spirits. 1t is we'll known that during

drinks and became intoxicated, it was
customary for them to prowl through
the streets of our cities, especially
Boston, and ravage and plumber
whenever opportunity afforded. Such
were a greater terror to the inhablt-
ants than the British line of battle.
Not only this, but it is well anthem
ticated historical fact that it has been
the practice of military leaders IN the
past to saturate themselves as 1t were
with the deadly poison.
Many more instances cOuld be cited,
if time and space would permit, but |
will conclude with few words to the

the evils resulting from a free use OF
Intoxicating liquors have been extend

picture of its real depravity and to
strike the mind with a possible con-
viction, and, as little hope needs to be
entertained of converting those who
have grown old in the habit, and
hardened in principle, it m Y be best
to address the young and rising gen

PIEDMONT AND IT'S INDUSTRIES.

PIEDMONT, W. VA, SEPT q, 1872.
Few persons in Baltimore save those
from this immediate section have any
conception of the vast industrial in
terests that centre at this point on
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad a
little over 200 miles from its eastern
terminus. In the perfect arrangements
of the great Creator He has pro-
vided beneath the mounta rs and hills
Of this region an ineXhaustible body
of the finest semi bituminous coal,
The development of this has but just
commenced, but is being vastly in
creased each year. Attracted by the
demand for skilled laborers to open
this field, hundreds, yea. thousands Of
miners, from Ireland, Scotland, Eng
land and Wales proper have settled
in the counties of Allegany, Mary
land, and Mineral, West Virginia,
which are separated here only by the
north branch Of the Potomac. Many
Americans haYe also engaged in this
pursuit, but it is confined mainly to
those already mentioned. With these
the boys en- ly begin to accompany
their fathers to the mines to assist in
leading cars, driving, braking the
trains, d ;mping the cars, etc, etc,
and thus the son in time becomes the
skilled miner, the occupation being
generally handed down from father to
son.
MINERS AND RAILROAD MIN.
The transportation, however, Of this
precious freight to the seabord is to a
large extent monopolized by Ameri
cans, True, foreigners do the details
of building the roads and keeping the
bed in repair, but their occupation
ceases there. For masters, engineers,
conductors, brakemen, etc, etc, we
find a hardy, intelligent class of men
from the cities, and the counties bor-
dering on the road, who begun early
40 railroad and learn to love the
activities and settlements incident
thereto.
These miners and railroad men form
the bulk Of our population. Then

ISain.-The longdesired rain came on
Monday morning and continued nearly the
entire day-a happy relief to the poor pco-
pie who have been without water for cleans
ing purposes.
A drought, such as we have experienced
for some time past, is productive of two
evils-it seriously incommodcs all who have
no water, and makes many of those selfish
who have. But it is scarcely fair to say
anybody is to blame in the matter except
those whose greatest interest it is to secure
Il far more efficient supply. The masses OF
our people are not independent watcr-hold-
ers and prefer to obtain their supplies with
out the trouble of bothering tier neigh
bors, or expense Of digging wells; they pre-
fer make it pay tie toen to secure and
possess supply adequate at all times to
all emergencies.

After the sermon seven candidates were
