It will be the object of this paper to
ehow the expense of supporting this ene
my to our dearest, best ioterests. I have
purposely avoided using the word intern
p ranee, because its meaning is vague
nd unsettled.
According to the Marshal's return in
It 10, there were more than thirty-three
millon of gallons of spirits distilled and
imported for annual consumption An the
United States as considerable quantities
are brought in by smuggling, thirty four
millions would very probably be below
. the real estimate. If the consumption,
since ihst time, has krpt on in a ratio
with the .increase of population, the con
tutnr'ion of e tingle year would now
be mors loan, slxur. toillioni; . but 1 will
set it down at fifty millions-' Considering
that this estimate is below the reality,
nd taking the prices of the different
kinds of spirits, and considering that vast
.quantities are retailed at advanced priced,
we may fairly set down 'he cost to be fif
ty millions of dollars Now what ere the
products of this expense ? Idleness, con
tention, shattered cons itutions, prems
ture death, wretchedness, poverty, dis
union in families; and the catalogue
might be langthened to fill a page.
To be more particular in this calrula':
tion, let us confine it to a smsll section
of the country-; Fifty millions i to tbe
pop)stion of the U. States, as 7S,o6o to
Rowan county, estimating the population
of this county et IS thousand. - This ratio
may not be precisely ectr
" mffif Vnilr aalo.sna.wa tb.t
- yeerTr consumed in this county. These
ere will estimate at but SO centa per fcal
Ion. Considering the different kinds ol
spirits consumed, and the war in which
much ...of it is sold, it is presumed that
. this la .ioWJ.esiimat'ecI!37,QOO. 'dollara
- annually expended for spinous liquor.
The time and grain consumed in thr
manufacture of this article should not be
taken-tao-tbie- Deitunui calculation, i
but there are many other expenses attend

Is consumed by drunkards. One gallon

supposed that drunkards drink always
Jn this systematic way ; but it matters
not aa to the results, whether the? con

(and, indeed, one quart will lay most of
them up lor s day,) or spend double
the number of afternoons in drinking

would furnish s sufficient number of good

Were the funda expended on distilling

of such an appropriation to the rising

incalculable. To effect this good, where
