Tipsy Young Men.

The following communication
from an anxious parent on the
subject of a prevalent vice a
mong young men of the present
day-the vice of excessive drink
lis written in u tone and spirit
that will command peculiar re-
spect. 1t cannot but be alarm
ing to both a thoughtful father
and prudent mother to have sons
and daughters growing up a.
round them, and feel that nei-
Their the one nor the Othercan go
out into the world, even among
the rising generation, without
witnessing so much inebriation.
When spectacles of this kind
are SO common. drunkenness
comes to be regarded as Il venaI
offence, and little by little young
men Of whom we expect better
things acquire the terrible habit
from association. What a re-
Election for an affcctiOnate pa
rent (! And what hope can a
young woman have of happiness
i'm her future if her husband,
choose she discrcetly as she
may, is ever surrounded by an
example Of drunkenness so gen
cral ard SO contagious? But
our correspondent writes as fol-
lows:
DEAR OEsERVEE-WiIl you,
or some Of your able writers,
do me and society in general the
pleasure TO make some COM
mcnts and warning on the sub
jcct Of the growing habitual in
temperance among our young
men? l am really shocked at
the progress this vice is making
among them, who seem to think
no enjoyment can take place
without stimulants. | natural
ly wish my children to make ac-
quaintances; but. while unwil-
ling to distrust my boys, | feel
whenever they are out
of my sight, lest they might be
accepting the perpetual invita-
tions to drink.
DO, Mr.. Editor, enlarge as YOU
know how on this subject, l
wish my girls to marry Ameri-
can men, but is it not beyond
contradiction that they a.c be-
coming Il LatiOn of drunkards?
To this communication VIC
have only to add, to-day, our re-
grct that the Over-indulgcnce in
liquor is SO common.

A MANNING To OUR rOLICE.

On yesterday morning we received
through the post0licc the communities
ton printed below, addressed "too the
Edditor Of the Dallas llearl." As 1t
seems to apprlse our valiant and vigil
liant police of u hidden mine on which
they are treading, we deem 1t best to
give II publicity. There was no post
mark on the envelop to indicate where
tho letter was mailed. If the detcc-
lives think they can make anything
out of the handwriting and envelop,
they nro both ut their service. The
following is the letter, UerbotiD', q H.
e,utim, Ct speitdtin;
To the Detectaivs and Police that is
trying to ketch the men that Robbed
the Stage near Sannarcas. when you
come for me come TO lite and be ceari-
full the Path is clear IN which you

of Cowrdly murders at Hart and fur
the way you have treated mi Lady |

OF you have got you marked ana as

more than that am not worth MEX
