There is ofteu another objection urged against tbo temperance reform, aa atlcinjtt. cd to bo carried out at this day, other than that which we hav,c Mrcady noticed, which tho reader will remember, was based upon tho grounds that temperance societies were supposed to bo unfavorable to civil liberty. This is, that "joining a Temperance So cicty, ia inconsistent with the profession of a christian." In answer to this, wo have but to say that for our life, we never could Bcrjrwhywlnfl that as achristian, to which ho woulcf be . jiaturally disposed by tho very nature .of his profession. If us" a christian ho be sin cere, he will embrace , any and every op. pprtunity to do good to his fellay men, by ' precept and example, with his talents, pro. pcrfy and influence. It will be only neces. sary to show a good man that uniting with ' others, and forming a temperanco society, . .tends directly to tho benefiting his fellow man without any possible injury to himself,, in order to secure not only his approbation but his hearty and constant co-operation. The ycry essence of tho religion which he professes is supreme love to God, and, uni. versal love to man. . A love to man which prompts the most constant and unwearied - cflofts that can bemade "consistently with l justice, to secure and advance his interests. An anti-effort, do-nothing feligioa may be consistent with tho natural feelings of a de. proved heart, but it is very far from being consistent with the word of God, or tho in tcrcsts of man. Tho particular good re. milting from temperance associations,- has faceoiiw tan nhvitviiq 4vnlmit ftf -n aorinti doubtjon the part of the candid, and wo are compelled to look upon the man who pro fessye the religion of Christ, and stands op. posed to this cause as blinded by bigotry and prejudice, misled by ignorance, or as possessing feeling quite the reverse of those always inspired by the religion which he professes. We bclievo the time has been when religious men engagod-in the traffic QLardcnLspirils inmfficntlJiotJkhowing what they did but at the present , after such a flood of light has been pourcdupoa the BubjccJ, the tendencies and results of the practice so clearly demonstrated to be "only evil a fid Jhal continuajly," little Confidence can be placed in the sincerity of that man's religious pretensions who cither engages in the practices of making, vending or drink- Ing Bpirits, or opposes tho progress of the tpmoerance febrm. " But I joined a temperance society when 1 joined the church." That mny bo true at least in theory, but docs that circumstance justify the. plea of exemption fromuniting-with-the more-judicious and benevolent of your neighbors in opposing one of the most dire evils that ever visited our land? Should a man do the less good becauso of his connection with the church T Certainly not! It is knowTi that very few, if any, of the churches make this subject a questionof membership. In most of them, we are sorry to say, a man may drink provided ho docs not get drunk, and there are no legal provisions for his censure. He may make, buy and sell spirits and none con officially say," what doest thou V pro. videdkehavta licensfYrotnlte cMrt of kit county, and nothing disorderly hi transacted in his house f " r " ! in his house t ' To meet the exigencies of the case both in and put of ita church", ' we recommenrj temperance societies, gotten up by volunta ry associations, as a prudential means which has hitherto been found the most easy, safe, and cfTicieutiaihc Bupprcssion of intemper ance of any ever known among us. . ! ; - But why say a pledge, I am temper, ate already y ' .--v- .v; -:, ; If that be irue, if indeed you are tern. perate, then by signing a pledge you make no sacrifice, and you should tho more cheer. fully give your influence to this, good cause. " But to view this in another light- The Issue Ts fairTy made up before tho worTd te- tweeu 'the friends and enemies of tho prac tico of using ardent spirits " for anyother than medical or mechanical purposes, and now to borrow a sentiment from holy writ, " lie thai is not for us is against us, and lie tlmtgallicirih not tcith us icallcrclh abroad!" Tho friends of temperanqe, and the public generally, know no middle ground. It is Jruc that in tho abstract, opposing temper- unce societies is not favoring drunkenness, but when tho issue is made tip in this ques tion, llio caso is altered, nnd we confess oursclf unable to seo how under the circum stances ns they exist, an individual who opposes temperance societies, can be con sidcrcd in any other light lhun favorable to drunkcuncsv There was a time when our fathers couldnot drink tea without sanction, ing that odious principle in human govern ments taxation -without representation. And what did the men of 7G say 1 Let each one take care of himself. . Let us have no visible Agreement no pledge J Far from it. Let the delegates from Virginia assem bled at Williamsburg on the 1st of August, 1774, speak for themselves. " Consider ing the article of tea," say they, " as the ddcstibk instrument which laid the founda tiunforthe present sufferings of our dis tressed friends in Boston, we view it vrith horror, and therefore Uesolvep, That tee Kill not front this 'day,imjort lea of any. kind whatever, nor wiU we use U, nor suffer such as may be now on hand to be used in any of our fami. lies? This resolution was handed about for tho signatures of the people, and tho result was, union, strength , action, success ! So it must be on the temperance question. The article of tcaio simple matter, but on the principle involved in the resolution above, the issue between the two countries, was made up, and who ever imported or drank tea then, no matter how sparingly, was looked upon as an en emy to American liberty. Suppose when this resolution, or tho declaration of Inde pendenco was to be signed, some one had said, " why sign such a paperj I am a pnt riot ulrcadyT"" would not his patriotism have been moro: than suspected?. Or. sup- pose each man when tho armies of Great Britain poured in upon our country, had said, " I wilt not help them, neither will I form any visible agreement with my fellow. countrymen to oppose themI will sign no pledge I will fight single-handed do my own fighting and in my own way-." Thcn had tho enemy triumphed, and wo never have been free ! And if Britons could not Jbe conquered without union if indeed, no great achievement in the physical or moraj world, lias ever been accomplished without union of effort, how can we expect to con. quer without united cct, that which has ma low tnouHnnus-u pon woua nus-i -our follow men in every part of tho world ? " But I do not think that a little spirit occasionally, docs me any injury, butt is rather of benefit to inc." Aye truly, and very probablo upon sc. rious examination, you would find your en tire opposition to the temperance reform to grow, out of this belief. You have - a' sc. cret fondness for spirits, of which you do n'o-wishtodony yewaelfT aft4you fear that if the temperance cause prospers, your practice will be frowned down by the .more. respectable portion of society. . . A little tea "taken in moderation," would not have hurt the ladies of . Boston in 1714, yet, as they could not drink it without giv." ing indirect sanction to the principle of tax ation,' without representation, they pledged themselves -against it, resolving to risk the consequences. Spirits cannot be used as a common beverage however moderately, without sanctioning the intemperance pro ducedby it, and in he true sense, of the word, those concerned, thus become par takers of other menslsins. 1 Another plea for opposing the temper ance reform, is often urged in language like this: " Ardent spirit does some good, and if it be proscribed because of its abuse, we may on the same principle, abandon many things thought to be necessary to our com r'Jn - - j - " ' . . . . This principle must always be tried byi the general effects attending tbe use of the articje in question. If more -good, than evil, results from its use, it should be kept and rice terta. What thenar the etlecta attendant upon tho usd of spirits as a com mon heverogej? This shall be the aubjectof inquiry in a succeeding mrmberr t-" I. OCT The following statistical view of the distilleries and quantity of spirits annually distilled in the United States, brings to light the startling fact that there are more than two gallons of spirits Annually distilled in our country, to every man, woman nnd oliild that inhabits it! The annual export do not, wo think, exceed the imports, so that it if the liquid poison annually con sumcd in these United States were equally divided, every living soul would have more than two gallons ! But there is another fact exhibited in tins tablc to which we wish to call the attention of our readers in this State. It is, that in North Carolina tho number of distilleries uearly double that of any other State in the Union! Yes, North Carolina has her two thousand six hundred and ninety-eighl still- houses J Sho has few, if any, asylums of any kind, sho has few good ronds, or ca. nals, few public works, to givo her rank among her sister Slates but she has two thousand six hundred and ninety.eight dis tilleries !W.
