TIE New ABoLtTIoN.-At q temper'
ance meeting in Boston the other day
q lady speaker said that true total ab-
stinence would include tea and coffee
among the things prohibited" She
said that her daughters had left of the
use OF those fearful liquids with manifest
benefit to their health. Hence it fol'
lows that they should be prohibited
The prohibition Of tes in Boston ls as
old as the revolution, though . differ
eut principle was then involved IL
throwing it over beard. Perhaps THE
lady carries the prohibition doctrine to
it's logical results AS her daughters
do not believe in them they are con-
sistent in seeking to abolish them as
we'll as beer and wine.

! could safely discharge one-half Of the
present police force; that nearly all the
murders were committed between the
hours Of ii p. m. and Up. m.
The speaker next referred 10 the
many instances in which existing laws
are violated, and called upon all good
citizens to enforce them. In q repre-
sentative form Of government the peo.
pie are responsible for the character OF
their laws and in duty bound to secure
tLcirerHr rment: 1t lie in the power Of
the Won. r. f this city to discover and
bring to punishment transgressors Of

OF this city be resolved 10 ferret out
violations Of law 10 discover who sells to
their husbands and sons drink contra.
~ to law, and they can do more effec.
tive work than as many regular detec'
lives
He also recommended that measures
be adopted to compete with these coffee
houses, falsely so-cslled, by establish.
ing real coffee houses, where good
coffee, tea, milk and other innocent
reireshme uts could be supplied 10 our
laboriug men as they 60 10 and return
from their work, and TO afford reading
rooms and other legitimate and harm
less entertainment. and thus gradually
abolish these other Notwithstanding
shops. :,
.. As members Of society we should
disseminate the doctrines OF total absti'
neuce, because to many this is the only
security especially 10 those who have &C
auired the habit OF drinking. 10 such
TO taste is 10 isll. To others il is hered
itary, even to the second and third
generation; no fact is more clearly es-
tsblIshed in medical science. To Others
any other example is likely to prove
injurious, aud we should DO nothing

do no harm and may be beneficial

tFOr the IntolligencerI
To-day Is TIsha b,Ab.

This day is the 9th Of the month of Alb
later the lunar SYSTEM, the day on which
Jerusalem and the Temple fell by the
hand Of Titus the Roman. One thousand
eight hundred and five years have elapsed
since Israel mourned the loss OF their
country, their crown and independence,
and became scattered among the nations
Of the globe. No wonder that sorrowful
feelings overwhelmed this people owing
to their heavy loss. But there ia great
man-one Of the sages who expressed
himself thus: "The Temple has been
destroyed by fire and the future Temple
will be built through fire." This deep
meaning, We see, has already taken effect.
The golden or spiritual time has its be-
ginning. The great Temple Of freedom
and liberty, Israel has found in the new
tatherland, under the enlightened Con-
stituion Of the United States, where
everybody resides undisturbed under his
roof and under the shade OF his vine and
fig tree, and where all are equal before
the law. We Isrselites OF America,
therefore, mourn no more. We only
look with feelings Of SORROW back to the
olden times and are joyful with our lot,
which has been cast so happily for our
welfare. N.
Welding, July 90, 1874.
