THE AGE OF REFORM.
For the Kecistcr.
It is well known,; Messrs. Editors, that
many of themost respee table cit izens of ouri
State,i doubled; the expediency of the. Act oft
the last General Assembly, vesting the elec-f
tion of Constables in the people at large.
To say .nothing of the evils generally at
tendant on meetings for such occasions, we?
thank' the following well ascertained fact,
is but little calculated to increase our ad-i
miration. of the law. .At an election last-
. month, in a popular district, the incumbent,!
as irtisual, wras opposed by a new Candi-
'date. The former Officer, was re-elected.!
but it is a certain truth, that three-fifths oil
tiie votes , given to his opponent, were by!
persons, froin vvhom it had been his duty to)
collect money las an Officer ! A pretty good!
illustration this, of the wisdom and utility
of the Act! IRA. '

tfomaL notice into day's paper tjiat a meet-
ihg of the- lntetnai lmpiveeht.Centrul
Committee will take places in this City, on
the first day of pril. Ve thoe that the
County Committees will, without exception,
attend to themiestioris contained in the
notice to wl4ch ,we refer. I n the respecta
ble county ol Orange, we observe that a
public meeting of the citizens is called to
receive the Report of the Delegates who re
presented it in the Conycntion," held in
llaleih last winter. This is preparatory to
4 forlnal communication to the Central Com
mittee, &. is worthy of imitation' ..elsewhere.
t is obvious to all, tht a general compli
ance with the request of the Committee,
would accumulate a valuable fund of infor
mation, which, disseminated among the
people,
through the medium of the Press,
ivould tend greatly to enlighten public opill- j
ion upon a sltbject of vital interest to N.

bore the most unequivocal ev

rapid improvement brought about by its ,

that within the last eighteen montljs So-

that their progress had been so great tiat as J
far back as the beginniug of the last fall the j
f'ourt had refused to grant any license j
to retail ardent spirits within the county and j
that at this time there is no such thing5to be!

can be purchased. It is a fact highly ere-1

that they came foihvard in a btnly ; ftnil de

business which they felt was mischievous in
its effects to all who were concerned ;in the

Mr. Colston from Berkely, stated that
the Temperance Societies were producing a
great revolution in the county he represented
und mentioned several facts illustrating the
great benefits they had already prod dried.
Several other gentlemen addressed tlie So
ciety, and in a manner that evinced the
devp interest they felt in tlie cause injwhich
they were engaged. A short speech- from
Mr. Maxwell of Norfolk, was listeried to
