The camp meeting of the Seven Day
Adventlsts which commenced in Supingers
grove at the northern edge Of town on
July 2lth closed on Monday night. The
services drew considerable audiences, and,
at times were quite interesting to many OF
the listeners. The enca mpment was nice

Portable, those used for sleeping having
board floors. The services we're held in
large double poled tent, furnished with
comfortable seats, and was of sufficient
capacity to accommodate five or six hun
bred people On Sunday excursion trains
from Winchester and Stanton brought
about six hundred persons to the meeting,
while from seven % eight hundred more
came by private conveyances. The day
was intensely hot until late in the alter
noon, at which time several heavy, drench-
ing rains drove everybody to shelter and
gratefully cooled the scorching atmos-
phere. While we cannot agree with the
belief and doctrine of these people, we
must say that their conduct while here
was most exemplary, and the perfect
order and decorum preserved on the
grounds during the whole time of their
stay among us far surpassed that of any
camp meeting we have ever attended, and
won for them, in this regard, at least, the
respect of our entire community. Every
thing moved along smoothly and orderly,
and, with the exception of the sermon on
Sunday afternoon, not one word was said
from the pulpit, as far as We can learn to
offend single person

FISHERS HILL, Va, Aug. e, 1850.
EDITOR or HERALD Your worthy
Maurertown correspondent intimates in
last weeks issue that the Shenandoah
County Temperance Alliance purports to
encourage and foster the cause Of Prohi
bition. This impression has gone out at
different places. but such is a grave mis-
Jake and blinded error. The Alliance is
temperance movement only there is
nothing of prohIbitive character about
it whatever. It's purpose is to encourage
temperance and morality and help to save
the youth from disgrace and degradation,
and help TO restore the young men, the
old men and all men, to the plane and de-
sign for which the Creator intended man
should be-a man, with. all that word i'm
plies. and no less. It's purpose further is
to discourage drunkenness, dram drink
ing, and the damnation of the human soul.
The Alliance may have some members
who advocate the cause of Prohibition; 1t
may have some who are free traders, and
il does have some who are protectionlsts.
II has members who are members OF the
different churches yet no one can call
the Alliance sectarian body. have
heard and know Of only three members Of
the Alliance who will vote the Prohibition
ticket.
The writer Of this would be placing him
self in n prccarious predicament in wear
ing a Harrison and Morton badge if it
were the purpose of the Alliance to adyo-
cate the cause Of Prohibition.
Again, | repeat the Alliance is temper
ance movement only, and not an advocate
of any political party.
| will add, in conclusion, that the Presi-
Dental Prohibition ticket can do no good
in this election, but it will do certain in
Jury to the only liquor opponent candi-
date-Harrison. 1t will be thrusting a
dagger in the side Of a man whose opposi-
ton to the liquor traffic and whose Chris
tan principles are as component az per-
hans are those Of the Prohibition candi-
dates, and certainly as much as we could
expect Of any man Of today to be elected
President Of this couhtry. The Republic
can party Is on the verge Of adopting q
lianor prohibitive platform plank, and |
believe in years it will do so 4; but even 1t
A Prohibition President could be elected
now. there could be no possible chance I
revolution in the liquor business 50 long
a. Congress remains in the hands of men
who are antagonistic to the cause of pro-
hibition in liquors.
We see, then, that the proper place to
use Prohibition material is for Congress
men and State Legislatures. If the Pro
hibtion party will have grown to such
an extent in years to come, rs to swallow
up the Republican party, it will doubtless
be done, but so long as the Republican
party is the body and the Prohibition par
ty the tail, it would be bad policy, if not
to say inexpedent, for the tail to swallow
the body. FARMER.

Mr.. EDITOR Last week your Maurer-
town correspondent presented the Shen.
County Temperance Alliance IN a false
light. whether innOcently or otherwise |
know not, the communication beng with
ont the name of the author, thus failing
TO give the public an opportunity OF de-
Gliding whether the writer is responsible
man, or whether he has had the opportu-
nifty of knowing the facts in the case.
We prefer to believe he has not been
made acquainted with the Alliance, and
while he was trying to make point for
his party had no intention TO misrepresent
the matter.
Though not without political preference,
I do not write to defend any party, but to
state the objects of the County Alliance.
The call made to organize said Alliance
TO which the names of about thlrty-hve
gentlemen from various parts OF the couh-
tv were signed, asked all the friends oil
Temperance in the county without regard
to church preferences or political aiiilia-
tion. 70 assemble in convention and or
game to oppose the whisky traffic in the
county.
In the organization and working OF the
Society everything proposed having the
least tendency to commit the Alliance to
any party has been promptly rejected.
The communication referred to repre-
sents the Alliance to be working in the
interest of the political Prohibition party,
which is far from being true. There are
less number of Prohibition party men in
our ranks than there are Of either OF the
otbar narties. We arc not a set of polite
al towards. but while we have positive
nolitical opinions. have agreed to cooper
ats with each other, and all other temper
ance people for the overthrow OF the
whisky traffic. which is the enemy OF the
race and is destroying so many OF the
citizens of our county. am delighted

influential ladies and gentlemen of the
county who have become identified with
the Alliance, and TO see their efforts have
