Maj. BIngna,n-. ADDRESS.

Bylinvifation ola committee appointed
by meeting ofthe citizens III thisgfown-
ship held lsona weeks since, Mai, hing
liam addressed " large audience Of gciltle~
men and ladies At the Masonic Ledge on
Friday evening, on the subject Of temper
anceand the prohibitory law.
The address departed very materially
from the traditionary track. soflolg and
50 uselessly followed. II was totally
devoid offanatic fury, made no altemptto
excite the feelings Of the hearers by horrid
pictures ofruin, crime, and degradation,
nor on the other hand, did it aim at APP
plause by theclap- trap Of stale anecdote.
Some Of the views taken by the lecturer
might startle the extreme friends Of the
temperance cause. He boldly asserted
that the use OF drink In itself was no sin,
no more than the use Of amy ofthe other
stimulants In common use. II was tile
abuse that made the evil. And on this
point, the speaker made ingenious and
forcible use Of his studies IN etanology.
He showed conslusiyely that while some
races could indulge IN the habituai use of
wines and alcoholic drinks withoutipjury,
the mental consultation, and physical cons
formation of the Anglo Saxon Invariably
extended the awe into obusc. The Creator

excitability. lie had given 1t, "a brain

rial already prepared for eombustion. The
use ofthem, therefore l,y this race, inev-
itably runs into ab,se. becomes nation

The lecturer was very clear and forci.,le
in his Illustrations OF natural rights, and
the powers Of society to restrain them.
Gross misconcepion existed on this snb-
ject.
