COURT HOUSE,
Monday evening, Aug. 1.2,1807.1
_
Convention met at tho hour appoin
ted and on account of the absence of
the President, Vico President F.
Lane took the chair and called on the
Rev. Mr. Chenoweth to offer prayer.
Minutes of the afternoon session
read and approved.
On motion the Convention proceed
ed to consider the resolutions reported
by the business committee. The fol
lowing are the
RESOLUTIONS
1, Resolved, That as there is no great
question before the National mind at this
time, of superior importance (except the
Christian religion) to the consummation of
the Temperance reform, and as human skill
is insufficient, we therefore reverently implore
the Divine Wisdom to guide our counsels,
and His blessing upon our efforts to banish
this great evil from this Commonwealth.
2. That we consider it of the first import
ance that the rising generation be carefully
guarded against the evils of Intemperance,
and earnestly recommend that the subj mho
brought to the attention of Sabbath School
Superintendents and Teachers, with the re
quest that they co-operate with us in securing
the pledge of the children under their charge
to total abstinence.
3. That the Managers of this County Socie
ty are hereby requested and it is their duty
to encourage and' pybyid:ii for the holding of
public meetings in their respective townships,
through their Pastors, Sabbath Schools,
Churches, &c., &c., and to call'out speakers
fur such occasions and recommend the Tem
perance pledge for aigners, and that each
township report quarterly to the President of
this S cioty the number of meetings held and
names ertnitted.' '
4. That as the diffusion of light and into'.
lieenee it essential in every moral reform, we
thm eforo recommend to all The National
Temperanci 4c2rocala and The Youth's Tem
perance Banner, t.ublished by J. N . Stearns,
No. 172 Williams street, New York city, as
an efficient means of prosecuting the work;
also Temperance Banner, published at Selins
grove, Snyder county, Pa.'
5. That the licensing of acknowledged
evils is wrong in morals and ruinous in leg
islation, and that a good law is a potent in
strument in forming a good public sentiment,
and a bad law corrupts and depraves it, we
therefore can never give our consent to a sys
tem which shall give the legal sanction of the
State to the traffic in intoxicating drinks as a
beverage; a business so ruinous to the morals
and best interests of the peoplo, and that
prohibition is the only safe legislation that
can be enforced by practice.
G. That to the traffic in intoxicating drinks
as a beverage may be traced a very large por
tion of the pauperism, insanity, crime and
casualties of the country, and that against
these evils as a civil right the peoplo should
be protected by wholesome legislation, and
that as a license gives freedom and apparent
respectability to the traffic and denies the
proper protection to the people; therefore, it
is the right and duty of the people of this
Commonwealth, in self-defense, .by legisla
tion and other suitable 'means, to bring such
traffic to an end.
7. That in the opinion of this Convention,
it is ',consistent with the obligation volunta
rily assumed by professors of Christianity, or
as members of any temperance organization,
to manufacture, sell or uso, sea beverage,
intoxicating drinks, or sign an application for
a license or rent their property to retail the
same, or in any way give countonanec to the
traffic.
8. That we earnestly request all political
parties to nominate good well tried Temper
ance men for civil office.
9. That as the pulpit is a potent instrument
in this country, in creating a purefiecl public
sentiment, we request the ministers of this
county to preach on the subject of Temper
ance in their respective charges on the third
Sabbath in September, or at their earliest
convenience. -
10. That when wo adjourn wo adjourn to
meet on thefir.t Monday iiiyht q/' November
Court in this place, and that the Secretary,
with the officers and managers of this Society,
unite in the call for a muss meeting at that
time, and that they select speakers for the oc•
casion.
11. That these proceedings be published
in the county papers.
The Convention then proceeded to
consider the resolutions seriatim, when,
after the reading of the first, it was
moved that it he 'adopted. The resole
tion was discussed by Mr. Chenowcth
and Mr. Miles, the latter offering an
amendment to the resolution which
was lost and the original adopted.
Pending- the consideration of the
first resolution the President elect, Ur.
Scott, made his appearance, and was
invited to preside and also to favor us
with an address. 11. s declined the for
mer, having as lie said only a few min
utes to remain in the Convention, but
favored the Convention with a short
address, after which ho excused him
self, and retired from the room, when
the Convention resumed the consider
ation of the resolutions before it.
Tho 2d, 3d, 4th, and sth wore adop
ted withoi:t dobato ; the oth was dis
cussed by Messrs. Miles, Barnhart and
Kerr, and adopted; the 7th, Bth, 9th,
10th, and llth wore adopted without
debate.
A motion was made by the Rev. Mr.
Kerr and adopted, that all the tempe
rance organizations in the county be
requested to be present at our next
Convention, and participate in the
proceedings.
On motion the Convention adjourn

THE DEAD LADY BROUGHT TQ
An interesting and astonishing event
transpired on the 22d ult., at the house
of Mr George Chandler, a farmer liv
ing near the Lowell road, between
Nashua and Tyngsboro, Mass. A phy
sician, Dr. Stroinski, stopped on the
afternoon of the day mentioned at Mr.
C.'s house to feed his horse. On enter
ing the house, Mrs. Chandler informed
the doctor that her daughter Susan
died on Saturday, and 'that the body
had been placed in a coffin fur inter.
ment on Sunday. The doctor on look'
ing into the coffin, remarked that the
girl was not dead, but only in a fit.
He ordered the removal of the body;
and placed it in it warm bath. After
a long struggle the girl was brought to
life. After leaving some medicine the
doctor took his departure. On the fol
lowing day—the one assigned for the
funeral—the resuscitated lady voided
a-tape worm 'measuring twenty-eight
feet in length; and instead of burying
Miss Susan Chandler, the parents in
terred the cause of all her troubles.
par It is said the Indians on the
Plains have an ingenious way of setting
fire to houses with their arrows. They
wrap with tt rag some powder on the
heads of their arrow, and on the tip of
their arrowhead place a peronssion
cap. When the arrow strikes the
object to bo fired, the cap is exploded
and the powder and rag ignited. The ,
rag burns long enough to set any com
bustible with which it may oomo in con
tact on fire.
