As |IIIEI|lIt‘|l to be brought ittttt opera- ti iii tor the rt-sirictioti or siippressiott of the trallié in liquor, I know, Itowovur, Iliat it will be iltspiiteil aittl ootitt-sti-d; ttiit so let it be, since it is oitly by discussion that we c.tii arrive at the real merits of the case. In the United States, the qttesllttll IIZIB. of late years, lllI(Iv'I'_'("I0 a great. deal iifdtsctisstoti. And, although in that enlightened cuiin'ry. there are laws and codes of laws to prevt-iii the evils tit" iiitetitperatice. yet we kiiuw that the ravages of that iutir.-l pestileitre have there in spite ofsucli checks, been spread to it most fearftil extent. In sortie Status they have, seeiitg this, deteriniiietl that nothing but complete prt,-reittioit ut trallic in all iiiitixicatiitg liquors will secure them fruiit ilic lirarfitl coitsequetices of iittettiperattce; ant laws or its total suppression have consequcitily been passed by their Legislattirt-s; and this example has been followe by some British Colttuiea. I find, by rt-fcreiit-e to our iinpiirts in spirits, that they airiouiit to 1.'l5.000 a year. If to this the duly thttriton be added, the aiitonitt will be £23,508; and. with the addition of the tnercliants’ and ilic retailers’ proliis,the amount anttually expended, in this Island, in ardent spirits, will not be less than £42,100. ' w it is bad enough to endure, iitelatt- cholv enough to reflect upoit, the evils which result froiti the iitietnpcrance, of which this tact is the eVltIt:llCd,—'lll0 disease. tlte poverty, and vice which it brings tipoit the peiiplis——biii, Iurtily,a|l these must appear still worse, when we pert-.i:tvi-. that we trot. only endure them, but really pay a price for tlieiit, and actually cxnend, antttially, .1.‘-l‘.3.I00 to bring them tipon tis. Surely this view of the subject demands ttttr reflec- tion. nitd is alone sufficient to induce the Legislature to take it into their most seriitiis consideration, whether they ought itot to provide laws for the suppression of the traflic. [T/to l'tI7itlI' tier of this Sp¢'t‘I‘lI it given as reported by the Rev. Jlr Ru/til. ,» The evils resulting front the use of intoxicating liquors are great and intinifold. They affect the morals, the health. the prtispetlly, the lives of tltc people. Is it not a melancholy retluction, that we are obliged not oitly to endure these evils. but to pay for tlient?

At all events. the Liquor Law ought to be amended. The hoit. ititd It.'lIflI8lI member tlieit concluded by moving the following Resolution :— " lfcrolvcd, That the suppression of vice claims the attention of every eitlighieitcd Legislature." The qimttion having been put on the above Resolution, if was agreed to rtem. con. Mr. l’AL.\l ER then submitted the following Resolution :—- “ Resolved, That the iittctnperate use of Ardent Spirits, II I , beverage. is deinoraliziitg to society, and. by intpoverishing the people who indulge in ii. eitseiitially retards the prosperity of the cttiititry which they iitltabtt." Mr. CLARK moved that the Resolution be amended. by striking oitt the word “ inIcnip¢ru!e,"’ and Mr. YI-LU seconded the motion.

There is not a body of men in being. whit come more completely under the application of the words til’ the great man of Avon tliait the Order of the Sons of 'l'r-m- pi.-rarice. when he says that, "if you should be as pitre as the suit. and its chaste its the unsunncd snow, on cannot escape calit .itty;” but, Sir, in viewing the backsliders from the temperance cause in a proper light. In iiitprirtial and ilisiit- tetesied person will find ttie strongest of all reasons for legis- lative interference for the total abolition of the Spirit. Trafiic Such hacksltders cannot bring their reason to jtistify their cotiduct iii the matter: they show that their weakness is too great to resist an evil vrliiclt they previously denounced: an evil which has been the source o y it vice—of mitcb wretchedneIs—nf poverty-—of crime~—of nakedncIs—starvtttinn —and of death ;—the parent of many a helpless orpltan—and the destroyer of domestic peace. lntoxicaiing Liquor is a cnrroder of beauty, of youthful vigor, and of hcalth—tlto spoiler of tttorality. of eqttaiiiinity, and of social order, and of social peace. As regards the lessening ofour ref;-nuc, by the aboli- tion ofthe Spirit 'I‘rail'n-.. I maintain, Sir, that it were better to have no revenue at all, than that the revenue should arise from the sale of that which is an evil in th. community. You would be gainers at least tifthe tiniouittof the revenue that is annual- ly spetit in t.‘iiroitt'-rs‘ liiqtiests no the bodies of those who may come to their death by drtitlieitriesa; and it is viell known. that by far the greatest iittiiiher of such deaths, iii this cominuntty, arc the cottsr-qneiicoot‘ the traffic in iiiittxicating liquors. I do, iltcri-fore. Sir, raise my voice agaiitst the trade its injurious. and do not hesitate to assert fearlessly, that those \I ho carry llfl the liqiittr traffic are ttitt patriots; lint, that they inflict, by that trade, an iitjiiry on their country, and prittntite. with many other evils. tltc dobiist-itti-tit and the ittintorality til the world. Mr, the ground I have taken. I have no wislt to abandon; and am. itt this iiistatn-c. at least, willing to meet the opposition of any adversary of my views. I cait assure the tueuibers of this liointrablo lloiise. that they may quiet their fears.as to the break- tog out of I politit-,:il cotrthittaiioit, uniler the auspices of 'I‘otn- pcriince. Wliv. air, all political interference is excluded from their deliberations; but he is a degraded Son of 'I‘entpt-rttricc who would not exert himself, by the exercise of his civi rogative, to extend the influence and bctiofii ol' the teinperiince cause to every irihitbttittit of the land of his adopted home. ilo not ilttrik the Sonsof'I‘etitpr-rttrnie expect. that you will this -‘essioii legislate for the totzil abolition of the liquor trade; bttt, Sir, I kttow they tliiiilt the time is at hand, when they will unite their influence with yotirs, ftir the total exptils.on of the batitt-fiil trallic from the liiitd I have no special atiiltnrity frorii theiit. or any iiite of their body, to take a distinct itctit-n in this matter; but I am of ttpiiiioii, that ttit coiiittenatice should be given to the distillalioit or iiti ortation of liquid poison, more tliiiii any other poiitiiii, by the legislatttra of this Colony. wotild not go the length to destroy all that dealers in liiptor. or distillt-rtt have ttppertitiniiig in the trade nit ban And I thitik it is but 'uat atid reasonable. in view of the antiquity of the traflic, that dt-itlera should have time to shake thcniaelvss clear til the iipportenances of the trade.
