Dio Lewis in Middletown.

The late visit of Dr. Dio Lewis, to this place,
not designed for orltoral show has left behind
it a train ofinfuences, prompt, irrepressibe, per-
sstent-the fruits of which must evidence their
character, and their power. The meeting of Fri
day morning, succeeding that OF Thursday even
ing, was eminently earnest, sympathetic eflec-
tive. In reply to questions elected from he au-
dience DR.. Lewis communicated the following
facts and proposed operations, in the future -
States where the Temperance movement has
accomplished most, are the following: Ohio, In
diana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Kansas,
and Tennessee.
Next September there is to be a great Temper
anee Convention held in New York, at which
movements are to be inauguraled on an extensive
scale. Preparations are now making for that
object. Hitherto, there has been only skirmsh-
ing after that, the great but quiet battle is to
be fought which is TO reach every point in the
country and make its renoyating impression
known by its effects. Bya year from next July,
God helping, we expect TO see the work brought
to a completion. lie stated that, as far as he
could ascertain, never in one place had it been
resumed, when once the sale had stopped.
DR.. Lewis remarked that every man knows
that the women are right-that strong drink is
a curse both to those who drink it, and to the
unofending who do not drink it. The consci-
ences of all speak the same voice-all the womtn
DESIRE labor for, is the reform and safety of their
husbands, sons, brothers, fathers, and the romo-
val of enticemsnts which endanger them. He
added that all the personal disrespect and abuse
woman has suffered from rumsellers since the
Woman's Temperance Movement commenced
cannot compare with what one wife suffers who
has druakard for her husband.
tssln conversation with group of listeners while
here, he related the following illustrative anec-
dote. A countryman, on board steamboat, on
Long Island Sound, showed great curiosity as to
the cause of its propulsion. Said he, what
makes her GO? Oh, see it is this long thing
that goes up and down, pointing 10 the walking

Address by DR.. Morris.

The people of Middletown and vicinity are
under deep obligations to the Masonic fraternity
(more especially to Mr.. J. T Buddy for one of
the most pleasing and interesting literary treats
that it has been their privilege to enjoy for a
long while. AS previously announced, Robt
Morris, NJ. D., LII D., of the Holy Land Explo-
ration Association, delivered an address on his
researches in Palestine to very large and atten-
tive audience, on Sunday afternoon. His re-
marks, though addressed more particularly to
the Sunday schools, were heard with the greatest
delight by tho large audience of adults of both
sexes assembled 1t was intended to have had
him lecture in the Presbyterian church in the
evening, but such was the enthusiastic desire of
the people to hear him again, that il was thought
better to use the town hall, which was kindly
offered by the directors for the purpose, and in
the evening it was again filled. The Doctor, be-
fore commencing his lecture, paid glowing
compliment 10 the good behavior of the children
in the afternoon, attributing their conduct to
proper training the part Of the parents He
then proceeded with his lecture, holding the
most rapt attention of his audieace for an hour.
AT its close he presented small book giving an
account of the result of the abors of the Associ-
alton, to which he belongs, in the Holy land
The book sold readily and rapidly the people
generally feeling that they had received much
more than its cost in the delightful entertain
ments of the afternoon and evening.
We understand there is q movement ON foot IN
induce the Doctor to deliver lecture, illustra-
ted with pic views, on the great pyramids
OF Egypt showing the manner and cause of their
construction, and the interior arrangements
We think we but echo the sentiments of our
people when we say they would be greatly
pleased 10 hear such lecture, and that there
would be no trouble in getting up large audi
ence.
