TEMPERANCE NOTES.
SOMETHING EEM.


1t is reported that new feature may
be adopted At the temperance gatherings
after Tuesday night, the 18th inst, and
SUI day afternoon, the 18th inst, which is
the formation OF libraries for, and at,
each of the uOW successful temperance
halls in this city, OTIS and Parkers. And
further, it is proposed TO use the net pro-
ceeds of these and the following meet
ipgs in the purchase OF such books and
other literature IS committees for that
purpose shall determine.
Now, IS the proposition is such that
every one interested in the cause of tenn
perance can endorse, it is hoped that
not only full meetings will approve
and inaugurate the plan, but that
liberal donations of books and money,
from the well TO do in our midst, will
place the project on sound basis 81
each of the halls named, so that if sue
cessful in these instances, halls and libra-
ries may be opened in other parts OF the
city.
AS the proposition carries with it an
educational scheme, reaching many who
may not be otherwise approached, it is
hoped that stream of support and en-
enlargement will be given, not only by
all promoters of total abstinence and
temperance, be-: by the philsnthropicsl
of every shade. One old adsge says San
ounce of prevention is worth pound OF
cure" and another makes "idleness the
mother OF mischief"

night did not prevent another large

no speech maker, but the remarks he
made invited the attention of the
audience, in fact he made quite an inter-
esting talk for fifteen or twenty min
utes. Mr.. 4. l.. Noble followed MIR.
Brady in an interesting speech. The
next speaker was Captain Bags, who
made one of his usual determined ad.
ITcssts % POI ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS IL -

minutes interested the audience with q
good speech. The meeting was dis.
missed with a benediction by Rev.
Brown. There were five signers TO the
