Commonwealth to bloom under the sun
shine of civilization, and though many q
demonstrative memento yet remains to lead
back the mind to those primeval ages
"When wild in wood the noble savage ran, :"
yet who can look on these antique buildings
proud even in decay that speak of declin-
ing prosperity, without regarding them as
so many monuments to proclaim civilized
antiquity. Evidences they are Of mortali-
tvs mutation, differing however in this,
that these sombre old piles give no evidence
of a resurrection or renovation. All is
decline so far as ancient Charlestown is
concerned. The last lingering testaments
that tell the tale of primitive importance
are fast being obliterated and are soon to
be forgotten. But modern Charlestown
dixie most modern things) is, aver, pref
tier and prouder than Charlestown of the
Golden times" and why not? Instead of
a rickety old stage, that Hutton and a
Hull might rob, we glide hither and hence
like lightning to the well-tuned music of
the steam.
The enterprise of the present may be
somewhat inferior to the past as the days
of the Fairs are over, but still we have
many of the enterprises that engage man.
kinds attention. A church, public school,
two stores, wheelwright and blacksmith
shop, cabinet makers shop and a shoe shop.
The stores drive" good business, the
church may justly boast (if it be a matter
of boasting) the best Preacher it has had
for ten years. School matters prosper and
the artisans succeed we'll. We will close
at present and give you more anon.

Mr.. EDIToR:-Permit me to acknowl-
edge "Rambler's kindness in favoring
the readers of The Wing with communi-
cation " for the benefit of Reality"
Though he may "dissent from the conclu-
sions reached" in my former communica-
ton, he admits some points and does
not disprove any. My mode of promoting
the temperance cause is to educate the ris-
ing generation morally and intellectually.
No one disputes that this is being partially
accomplished by our Sabbath and public
schools; but these systems of education
might be greatly improved were it not that
large number Of the moral people are
misled and their energies exhausted by
the political agitation of the temperance
question, for the alleged purpose of obtain
ing prohibitory law, but mainly for max
ing political capital. There are but little
more than one half of the children in this
State who are of proper age to attend
school who do so. This may be attributed,
in great measure, to the book fee and the
want of proper clothing. Those who do
not attend school are growing up in idle
ness and ignorance, which are the legiti-
mate parents of vice and intemperance.
Would it not be better for our patriots and
phianthropists to devote more of their
school systems, so that every child may be
enabled and encouraged to procure lib
eral education. Train up the youth in
moral and temperate habits before they
become politicians and the "problem is
solved" then we will have more pure reli-
gion and less impure politics, and conse-
quently less intemperance.
| have acted in accordance with Ram
b!er's " theory for moro than twenty years,
and learned by experience that it was coun-
teracting the progress that moral institu-
lions are making. have glanced at affairs
in Maine, Vermont and Massachusetts,,
where it is claimed that prohibitery law
has done So much, and learned from high
authority that there is as much need of
temperance reform in Massachusetts as
there is in New York" The idea of i'm
proving morals and advancing the christian
religion by coercive measures seems to be
at variance with the Divine will, and can
not avail. If yoa had the power to make
it impossible for men to sin they would no
longer be free moral agents. If there had
been such law in the beginning, man
could not have fallen. All temperance
men should pull together. am now open
for instruction, and IL Rambler" oen-
vinces me that am wrong, or shows that
his plan is more likely to succeed than
mine, l will be with him again Providence
permitting) in the next contest for dele
gates for the Legislature. REALITY.
1.-THE law does esabtlish excellent schools
for training up the youth in the way their
fathers have gone, who do not consider
clothing necessity for their children. The
law doesn't altogether stop theft in Massa-
chusetts and Vermont, and ought to be
abolished along with prohibitory laws
against rum. 1t is very clear-to our cor
respondent at least-that Moses made
grave mistake in interpreting the Divine
will, in the hard and cruel laws he enforced
to mako them virtuous and abstain from
immoral practices.-ED.]

MIR. EDIToR:-I indite this on the sacred
spot where the founders of our great me-
tropolis- Baltimore-have often stood and
held (methinks) long consultations on the
feasibility of rearing here future mart for
the Capitalization of commerce, &c.
What great thing it is that Baltimore
was not built here, as tradition and even
musty old records attest that it was at one
time the design Of Lord Baltimore and his
Peers to do. Since imperial Rome found
salvation by the cackling of the fowl, /
have ever entertained an exalted degree of
veneraton for goose; and certainly to see
these verdant town lots obscured by the
gloomy shadows of brick walls and tower
ing monuments, which are doomed to
moulder into dust in the dark decades to
come, instead of playing the part of an
inexhaustable cornucopia for these highly
appreciated, and here most numerous birds,
would cloud my soul with shades of gloomy
grief. But while | seem to rejoice at the
disappointment expressed by the murmur-
ing waves of our waters, as they lave these
lone and deserted shores, that they are not
bearing hither the freghted argosies of
foreign lands; and while | smile complais-
antly at the sweetly expressed, though SOL
