Our object in forming ourselves into societies is, to banish the monstrous vice of Drunkeiiness from this our beautiful and highly favoured Island. The means which ,we MW" 1%. Abstinence. from .Ille cause 0va”, and which evil IS, “"10 Wing of mtozicating drinks ;" for we assert, that the real value of any practice is to be decided by its general tendency. Ifit_can be shown that, owing to the nature ofthe liquor, the use involves the abuse, it is obvious that the first glass-though apparently harmless in itself—is the first preparative for making drunkards. The'uvil is in the intoxicating nature of ilie liquor. Adopt any kind of liquid which ig noi intoxicating, and them i. no danger. The fault. it is said, is not in the liquor, but in those whoabuse it. Here is the great mistake. Iftbis were the case, why do not they abuse milk as well as intoxicating drinks? The fact is, the fault is in ihi: liquor, and in proportion as it continues to be used, sobriety will be a stranger to our Island. Ifit still be asked, Is there any evil in taking these liquors moderately? We answer by asking, Is there any evil in sowing turns among wheat? The evil, in both cases, is, the effect which follows, and past ex- periimce proves. that whilu a person compliments himselffor his sobriety, he is really, by his approving ofthe drink, making many drunkiirds. But some may ask, Is it safe to abstain entirely from alcoholic drinks? We answer, Yes, on the authority of upwards of five hundred ofthe most eminent Physicians in Britain, and all the eminent Medical Gentlemen in America; that it would not only be safe, but beneficial to the human system. Many ofyou are convinced ofthe madness ofdestroying the human frame with ardent spirits, but we fear there is great delusion, as regards the nature of malt liquors. We could note from many Physicians on this subject; but one shall GIlIfi-IP. liir the present, viz: Charles A, Lee, M. D , who writes as follows:—" As a Veneral rule, I hesitate not in river, as my settled conviction, I int nialt liquors are more deleterious in their effects on the system than ardent spirits. The latter are alcohol and water—the former are dele- terious compounds of alcohol, nnrcolic poisons, and mineral sub- stances; besides,_ as the fermentation which malt liquor under- gnes is imperfect, being stopped to prevent its change into vine- gar, it is apt to be renewed in the stomach, thus impairing the powers ufdigestinn.“ Friends and Countrymen I ifyou will but try our principle, you will sooi: acknowledge, with us, and the millions of others who entirely abstain from these diluted poisons, lliiit pure water is the greatest luxury in creation. Some would ask, What will become ofthe Farmer? What will become of the Revenue? We are persuaded that this siibjectonly wants to be understood, in order to convince all that the real interest of every farmer, landowner and merchant is to promote Temperance as extensively as possible. This will diminish poverty, imnio- ralitv niid crime—lessen the number ofbiid debts—make more honest and better servants—diminish the expenses oftbeir estab. lisliments, and will bring a great portion ofthe £32,000, as well as the proceeds of lost time, spent every year in our Island for the drunkards' drink. into the market, for bread, butter, beef, li-ntber, wool, and :ill the produce of agriculture; lcii, sugar, molasses, clothes, and all articles ufmercliaiidise. The increased consump- tion of those and other useful articles, most of which are subject to d'tty, will not only keep tip, but improve, llw. Revenue. Countrvmen! as \ou value the dearest interests ofyour country, we solicit your iiiost serious ntieniion to this important subject, ihat we mnv be prepared universally to petition ilia Legislature, at the coming session, to make Laws that will, as far as possible, take away all the incentives and causes ofliitempcriince; and althouin We are anxious to encourage Petitions for the purpose ofsupprcssing Inteniperance in any shape, yet we confess, upon it full consideration of the subject, we feel little satisfaction in asking forsuch rugulationsus recognise the propriety oflicensiiig houses for the sale ofinebriating liqiiors—coufessed y a cause of poverty and crime. Licensing gives a respectability to the char- acter ofthese houses, Mdsshielda them, in the estimation ofmany persons, from those awful charges Wlllt'l'l many oflliem can easily be proved to be guilly of. Why not license places to sell bad bread, bud beef, bud physio, its well as bad drink? Why not li- mo‘himufbad fame,“ well as these drink-shops, on whose victims those houses depend for their support? Let public-hun- ses be licensed as viclualliug houses, but not to sell intoxicating drinks; and if any person be seen betraying symptoms nfinebriu- tion, let the house where he got the article 0. ascertained, and proceeded against. in the some way as it driiggist, it butcher, or a fishinonger, who sold any article that affected the health ofHer Majesty's subjects. “’hen the Government have done their duty to prevent the evil, they would be justified in punishing drunknrds severely. The man who consents, for the mere gratification of his palate, to dethrnue reason and to not up Tension and lust in its place, as much deserves to be punished as the man who would let a bun- gry tiger out of his cage. I All nations. civilized and Pagan, have dreaded this vice as a social evil-of tremendous magnitude, and made laws for its pun- ishment. IVa will mention it few, which may not he uninicrest~ ing. Dindoriis, the Sicilian, tells us, that the Egyptians slinted even their Kings as to their drinking wine. Strabo' records an ancient law among the Indians, that ifa King got drunk, any woman might kill him.an for her reward she should be the wife ofthe succeeding Monarch. Solon made a law among the Athencnns, that. a drunken ruler should be put to death, and all the driinkardii were punished by fine or imprisonment. The Spartans (Plato says) ullowed- no drinking-houses or clubs; had rigorous laws against drunkennvss, a_nd even on the feast of Bacchus (the God of wine), it was liirbiddcn. The Spartans used to make their lielots or slaves drunk, and exhibit them to their children, that they might imbibe ii dislike ofdrunkeuness. Alas! how many British freeman would they have found, willing to have lent themselves for such a purpose I Plato tells us lhiit the magistrates of the Carlliugenians were not suffered to touch wine at all chui'gu's, King of Thrace, seeing drunkenness on the increase, «irdered all the vines to be cut down. The ancient Ro- mans allowed no man to rides horse who waggimn to drunkenness. They would allow no one to fill any public oflice who was known to have been driiuk. Charles the Great, King ofthe Franks, threatened his Nobles with degradation from their rank, if he found them drunk. Ifany man received an injury to his pemm or property, when drunk, there was no law for him; a diunkard could neillier prosecute nor plead in Court. Judges, Clergylnén and Physicians were not allowed the protection ofthe laws if they got drunk. The Scots, as Hector Beeline tells uti, were ver severe. Drunken magistrates were punished Willi death. Al tippling houses were demolished, and their owners banished Numerous regulations, made from time to time, are found on the Statute Bunk ofthe British Pailiument, to punish, and conse- quently to prevent, intoxication; but yet the evil continued to inflame, and ten. of thousands were annually destroyed, until the Temperance Reformation, on the abstinence riiiciple, com- menced, and began to dry up this flood ofbu'rniug ma, which was spreading desolation all around; and who I's‘lllure who does apt rejoice at the happy efi'ects produced by the Iemperance cause in Englaiia,Scotlund, \Vales. and especuilly Ireland? \Ve hope that the next House ofAsseinbly of this Colony will, by wise legislation, wipe the foukhlot of [ntemperance fiom [he “ Garden ofthe Git/p ."

This vessel, it will be remembered, struck on a sunken rock, about4 miles from the Cope, on the night ofthe l4th ult., and had subsequently been Condemned as unseaworlhy, beingliogged and waterlogged. The St. George returned the following morning, at 9 ii. m., with the Lady Wood alongside, being only 25 hours absent. The proprie- tors of- the steamer are, we understand, to receive £l00 for this service. The hull and materials ofthe Lady Wood are advertised to be sold to-diiy, for the benefit of all concerned. The Schr. Margaret, Biiiiiiliige, while lying in Eginont Bay, a short time since, waiting to lake in her cargo, experienced a heavy gale, which ihraatcned, at one time, to drive the vessel on shore. In this dilemma, the Captain fortunately hit upon an expedient, which, though ofnither a novel character, proved efl‘ociual. He bored in hole or two with an anger in the vessel's bottom, which, ofcourse, caused her to fill with water, and she thus rude out the storm to safety. After its violence had subsided, the vessel was grounded, the holes in the bottom plugged up, and in a few hours was again ready to take in her cargo. She has since arrived in this Port. The brignntine Flora Beaten, John Kennedy, master, was cast away in the gale on Sunday iiiglit,the 271mb, at Deii le's Cape, Lot 44, near Souris Harbour.—She was partly laden with timber. It was with great difficulty that the crew got from the vessel, the boat having several times capsized. lly ihe assistance ofthe in- habitants on shore, they succeeded in getiing a rope between the vessel and the beach, passed by a floating plank, and in that inan- nor were enabled to save tliemselvcs.-—Gaz.
