'Why Inyoke Legislative Prohibi
tion of the Hum Traffic."
Tti, friendsi i .Prehibition have been 1
reproached fo ingliag temperance with
cri i
politics ;'for making it an issue at 'an
election. We recollect 'the remarks of
a prominent politician, in the recent
campaign previous to the Odtober elec
tion. In a public speech at a political
gathering, this gentlernan i was very se
vere in his strictures upon those who
were making the temperance question
an element
.. in potitics. He advocated
the doctrine of moral suasion as alone
applicable to this great social reform.
But a brief and dispassionate examina
tion of the subject, will show that legis
lative interposition to suppress the ruin
traffic, is asked for good and sufficient
reasons.
I. - 771 i Legislature themselves have
forced the necessity upon the friends of
Temperance. They have given the
sanction of law to those who manufac
ture and retail ardent spirits. If they
had chosen to leave the subject to argu
ment and moral suasion, the aspects of
the case would be changed. The duties
of charity and religion are left to the
conscience and the good feelings of men.
But the traffic in ardent spirits is a mat
ter of legislative control. The State de
riees a reveuine, from it, a paltry'surn in- i
deed, compared nith the amount which
the people pay in taxes as a consequence
of the traffic. But the principle is rec
____ognized that the sale of ardent spirits is
lawful. Now, surely the legislature,
having taken the initiatory step, having
indirectly imposed grievous burdens up
on the people py, legalizing a business
which entails poverty and wretchedness,
rouses bad passions and prompts to acts
of riot and ruffianism, cannot complain .
when they are urged to repeal laws
which are proved, in their practical op
erations, to be 'oppressive and unjust.
The Legislature have perpetrated a gla
ring wrong by 'legalizing a dangerous
traffic). Let them repeal their olfin acts
•• which countenance and sustain rum-sell
' ors, before they complain that temper
auce is mingled with politics. .
2. floral suasion is not relied on in
any similar case. Take lottery vend
ing.' Injurious as this business hes al
wass proved to the morals and industry
nil wealth of the community, there is
nit a tithe of the evils connected with it '
flat there is with rum-selling. But in
- nost of the States lotteries are proscribed
. ay law. Moral . suasion, very , good in
its place, is not regarded an adequate
remedy iirthis case. So of prize-fight
ing, horse-racing, and bull-baiting.=
The law interposes, and says to those
wedded Co these cruel sports if you do
it, you shall be punished; -Ruin s i t elling
is an evil, a nuisance, or it is not. If it
is not, its advocates have the largt..t lib
erty to prove it.
We should Itke to see theip seriously
- make the attempt. The argument would
be 4 curiosity in its own way.. Jf it is
a nuisance, all objections againsi a lesis
, !sties interdiction vanish into smoke.
ledge McLean says,--"A nuisance may
be abated " So sly all the Judges of
the Stipreme Court. Chancellor Kent
says, "the government may by general
, regulations, interdict such uses of prop
erty as would create nuisances and be
come dangerous to the lives, health,
peace, or comfort of the citizens."
3. There is still another reply to those.
who insist 'on moral suasion atone in sup
. pressing the' ruin traffic. It is this : A
large portion' of those who are engaged
in this business care no more fur argu
ment and moral suasion than they do
. for the braying of an ass. Formerly,
• there were many engaged in the busi
ness on whom earnest remonstranceand
end appeals had an effect. They 'died
moral sense and conscience, and When
they sa e tendency of the rum traffic,
they abandon . it. Thousands. have
left the , business, ause their cons
sciences would not Fermi ism to pros
ecute it. But those left, a -- - class,
are deaf as an adder to all appeals. I n
affecting illustration of this fact came to
our knowledge last week. A husband
and father, who keeps a groggery, was
implored by an interesting, pious daugh
ter„to close his house 'on the Sabbath.
The.daughaer represented to him the
• disgrace inflicted on her by, his course.
But the father was stubborn and unyield
ing. Sell he would, in:spite of the tears
and beseechimi b
importnnity of his child.
The poor girl saw that all her .appeals
availed nothing. • She wept, and pen
, tiered, and bewailed her unhappy con
'', dition, till reason was dethroned, and she
con
; was sent a raving maniac to the asylum.
Talk of moralssuasion with such men!
Votrmay as well tame the ferocity
,of the
tiger by discoursing on gentleness.—
Hunt sellers at this as a body, can
not be influenced by argument and ap
' peals. Their business blunts their mor
al sensibilities, sears their conscience
and renders callous their hearts. Noth
ing but the strong arm of law will re
strain them. They have, legislative
sanction in the proiecution of their basi
nees ; they pay the license tax, and what
do they care for'morill suasion ?
Such is our answer to the question
which we made the caption of this arti
cle- ' If it is irrelevant, illogical, or ab
surd, we should like to.haee it so proved.
The- idea of relying on moral suasion
alone in:suppresslngs the ruin traffic is
utterly - prepos s sehaus. The Legislature
must first rescind its own acts legalizing
the traffic.--Phi/ade/phia Daily Reg

I , The Progress of Despotism.
Almost every day brings some new
development of that "Union-saving" and
slavery-worshipin . bedevilment, which
would destroy th Constitution, and
transform the g l government into
I. an irresponsible despotism. Here is
something which Ave cosy from the edi
torial columns of the Washington qiar :
..Collesion bet:petal/ailed States and
Stales' authorities.—ln the course - of
the laSt month or two, we have had oc
casion to notice a collision 'between the
authdritie ithe United States and those
of the S tte of Wisconsin, relative to
defireda ns on their public lands. An-'
t li
other in Ohio, in - relation to a public de
faulter; .still another in Pennsylvania,
with refdrence to a fugitive slave. And
now we learn of a fourth, in New York,
in ,connection with an extraordinary
case,; the case of t person claimed by a
foreign government under an extmditkon
clause of a treaty. , , .
' , There , is evidently a screw loose
somewhere. It strikes us that it is in
the abuse of the privilege or right of ha
beas corpus, which was designed merely
to protect the citizen against tyranny or
persecution=not to manifistly abuse the.
law and defeat the ends of justice. In
fact, these collisions' arising out of tie
abuse of the habeas corpus, are legiti
mate fruit of tbe "higher law doctrines"
which have been so industriously pro
mulgated by public men of late.'
The Washington Star professes de
mocracy, . arid 'Lis a reputed organ, or
semi-organ, of the administration. 1 W hat
we have quoted from it will gille our
readers some notion oPits political doc
trines and yearnings. What it says of
the habeas corpus 'reminds us" of Bona-
I• parte's reply to Charles James Pox's.o.q;
logy of trial by jury: : The great milil
tory despot said, with a shrug of his
shoulders, "trial by jury is very incon
venient." We= have had many intima
tions pf late, that those who manage the
general government find our constitu
tional safeguards of personal liberty
'very . inconvenient." Here, we see
whit they thilc of the right :of habeas
corpus." It is safest to begih the as-,
sault in this style. ,
We advise the Washington Star. to
gill its attention to executive- and con
?
ssienal abuses and usurpations of
power. They are many, and they are
sometimes atrocious. In thcs'se it .will
find the only real danger to the Constitti
tion. In certain quarters, theie is much
talk of "State rights" and "strict co
struction,',' while it is assumed in•prne l t
lice, that the States have no. rights, and
that the '-centraligovernment may - do
whatever the/Vashington politicians
may see fit-t 4 nc Abuse of the
right of !tali' is rorAus ! Those who
assail the ha cas corilus in this fashion,
may be lineally descended froth the lac
quitys of (the infamous Jeffries. They
certainly deserve to be. If anYtting'is
to be done relative to the writ of habeas
corpus, let us have fines and imprisori=
meats for the judges who.may dgrato
deny and suppress any man's right Wit.

Ron. J. \ R. Giddiags in Rpchester.
Mr. GtDDINGS. delivered a lecture be
fore a large audience, on ,Teesday even
ing, Nov. 29th, in Corinthian Hall,,Roch
ester. His subject was, ~ The Exiles of
Georgia." These exiles consisted of a
poition of the Creek Indians, and Fugi:
tives from Georgia Slavery; who fled .7 to
Florida, to escape the efforts of the State
Government arid the 'Federal Govern ,
ment to re-enslave them. The field of
discussion led Mr. Giddings through the
'enormities connected with the blowing
up of I3lount's Fort, reading to the Sem
inole wars, and finally, resulting in ithe'
removal of the Indians into the Territory
of their worst enemies, the herokees,
and their final 'abandonmen to Indian
y
slave-hnnters, which led to heir heroic
flight to Mexico, after having, :under
Wild Cat, defeated, in a pitched battle,
ki Licir pursuers. •

• 11 - r , Lecturer presented to : us anew_ '
phase o e negris character, provin b
that the race • ca' able of great military . .
heroism. Some'. - the - most desperate
r ,rtil‘,ls4
rbattles ever fought • this Continent
were fought by these fugitive,slaves and
their allies.. It is this trait of's erecter
in the African race; which is yet t in
the sympathy-of the *odd. It is as ye
a Ifalf animal world, and cannot, cr will
not, appreciate- any more refined trait of
manly character' than animal coufage.
~NVhen the negro, like the Pole and tb'e
Hungarian, shall astonish the world by
his - nillitary prowess, he will win its
sympathy and achieve his frqedom.
We do not urge the negro to war, but
we state what_ we believe to- .t bcz a phile-'
sophical fact.
. .
8ut.... this lecture developed : another
phaS•e in American history, which made
our ears tingle with shame, and our
blood boil with , indignation. We mean
the 'villainy of the officials of this tov
ernment, from the President down to the
swindling 'lndian Agent, Galphin.
I Neither the partition of Poland, the mur
! der of Hungary, or the enormities : Of
I British rule in India, preSent a ' more
mean :and cowardly specimen of, civil
perfidy, piiiiey and . murder,. than this
passage in American history. It will go
down the- stream of history as parallel,
' in deserved infamy, to the dark tragedies
referred tq. above. ' . .
Mr. Giddings is'• doing a great work
of justice iii dragging these things to
light: His lecture .is to be published,
and we hope it will be universally read.
He looks' the man he has marked him
, self to, be on the tablet of his generation.

try about 705,000,000 pounds of cane

foil? pounds of cane sugar, and, one
pound of maple *sugar ta- every man,

put into barrels holding two hundred

space.of three feet square only, it would,
require 320 acres 'of land for it to stand
upon. The barrels, if placed . in a row,
would reach tWO hundred And -twenty

per packages of five poundsk each; it
would require 146,400,000 sheets of

string was ,used to each, there would be
required 439,200,000 feet, or 83,000
miles of string—three times enough 'to

clerk sold one hundred pounds of sugar
each day it would require -nearly: 25,000
clerks to sell it all in a year. If the
