For instance, the pers . | son whom they call the « moderate drinker,’ is, in their opinion, a most deplorable | The idea }in the most of the world wretch. they strive to create concerning this poor creature, is extraordinarily amusing. | This moderate drinker is characterized by | temperance writers and orators, as a type | of humanity embodying almost everything | that is evil and wicked, Now, careless and indifferent, he goes on sipping his cham- pagne, relying on his own firm will to save but byex and-bye, he is caught in the whirlpool of himself from drinking to excess: fast companionship, and finds himself some fine morning as drunk as a loon; then 1 Now, | ses all self-respect; cares nothing for home nor friends, and finally ends a miser- | able drunken sot.

Now, i the fact is that moderate drinking is the | characteristic of a vast majority of the male portion of the human family. In walk of life. the every greatest men have been, in all ages, moderate drinkers. Nearly all | the great contributions to literature, art, i science, and the comfort and necessities of | life, generally, have been made by moder- jatedrinkers. In short, in every sphere of | life in which the human faculties are exs erted, moderate drinking is found com patible with the highest excellence. | These ardent temperance reformers have ‘another theory in which they go to ex- tremes They won’t admit that there is }any virtue whatever in spirituous liquor. | Now, the very fact that it can be abused, | simply proves that it has a right and pro- i peruse, They, then, instead of aiming to | educate men to the proper use of liquor, igo off ina tempest after rum, and strive to punish the abused instead of the abuser, That is another weak pointin their logical conclusion. And now, here on the Island, I notice that the temperance advocates are forms ing prohibitory leagues with the object of | crushing out the liquor traffic, in the very | face of the fact that this same prohibition has signally failed in other countries. Do these men suppose that a law that has successful here. I think they are on the wrong track, and the sooner they realize their mistake the better. It is as plain as daylight, that prohibition is a dead letter. Understand, Mr. Editor, that I believe in temperance, and that I would like to see the manufacture and sale of liquors pros hibited if it were practicable. But where |itis not, there is no use in wasting time | and money in putting it into operation. | | nay return to this subject, Mr. Editor, with | your permission. Yours, November 9, 1¢74. RayMuUrR. initia LETTER FROM MR. BURWCOD., Hauirax Noy. 2, 1874. S. Sicuer, Esq., Havirax. Sir,—As there has been so much talk and newspaper correspondence about the unfortunate band affair in which you are so dreadfully misrepresented that the pre- judice and feeling against you on the Island the public mind so as to do you and your business a great injury, I cannot in justice remain silent any longer, and as I was one of the committee of the Hillsborough Boating Club, I feel it my duty to say, that this persecution, as 1 cannot call it anys | rhing else, against you, is entirely uncalled | for, and unjust, and that, to my certain knowledge, you worked very bard and dis. interestedly to procure the band for the | committee, and especially to oblige Mr. | Bremner and mysel f; as we werethe only | parties known to you; that you made no money by the transaction ; on the contrary, | you lost money out of your own pocket. | As | have made personal inquiries about 'it, and from the intimate knowledge of the whole affair Iam in a position to testify that all the money you receivea for the services of the band was properly distri- buted to them, as the receipt given by Capt. Dashwood plainly shows. I beg however, to draw your attention to the fact, that certain parties interested in the sale of instruments, both in Charlottetown and Halifax, are taking advantage of this | band difficulty, and have combined, for the object of destroying your name and influs ence on the Island, so as to take advantage, to theinselves, to supply the ‘musical in- struments and mercuandize upon the Is- land. i consider the public should be made aware of this in order that the real cause of this persistent attack upon you may be seen. Pes The actual amount in question is far too small to make or keep up so much fuss about, were it not for some ulterior object, especially, as you offered to contribute twenty-five per cent towards that amount while in Ch’town. ; : Hoping the above explanation will be satisfactory, and tend to remove any wrong impression, and apoligizing for not having earlier communicated with you upon the subject, the cause being absence from home, and in a spot where few newspapers were obtainable.
