- Temperance Meeting:
in`ptirsuanceot the call of the County
Central Committee - , 'one of She largest
Temperance meetings ever assembled
in the county, convened at the Court,
House in the Borough of Coudersport,
on Tuesday evening, the 21st February,
1854.. The meeting was organized by
appointing C. W. Ellis, Esq., Chairman,
and Lewis Mann as Secretry.
A Temperance Song was sung by
the choir, after which the Chairman
introduced Jacob Carter of Philadelphia,
.who gave a thrilling and brilliant sketch
of the two, sides of the question—por
trayed in truthful colors the evils that
follow in the train of the "Ruin Traffic,"
and pointed to himself, n 3 " a living' and
breathing monument of what Total Ab -
stinence can do—may do—and had done.
The Chairman asked the meeting to
contribute aid to Br. Carter in carrying
forward his good work, which it did in
a very substantial manner, in the sum of
$1950.
On motion, a vote was taken fcr. and
against a Prohibitory Liquor Law, whiCh
resulted unanimously in favor of such
Law.
Remarks were made by several gen
tlemen and by the Chairman, who said
that, since the meeting had declared so
unanimously in favor of Prohibition he
wished the privilege of urging a few
serious and weighty objections to such
a Law. He snip it seemed to him that
if a Law should be enacted that should
prohibit the Traffic in SPitituous Liq
uors, that it would destroy, in a great
measure, the business of a very meritori
ous class of citizens—namely : the Law
yers. P.rohibit the sale of intoxicating
drinks and you take away oue ,of the
. .
most prolific Causes of Commonwealth
suits, for even now we of the Bar feel
that the Temperance feeling of this
County is destroying our livelihood;
Instead of there being from ten to twenty
cases of Assault and Battery, on the cal
endar, which .would rive them (the Bar)
from $l,OO to $l,OO fees;—there was at
this time one poor solitary case ; an le,
di I hope the meeting would carefully
a idsandidly consider this ma'kr, and
not go too fast.
On motion the. Chair appointed H. J.
Olmstel. Davi I Brown, M. R. Gage, 0.
A. Lewis. and D. W. C. Jiffies "Central
Commitee" for the County the ensuing
year.
On motion, adjourned.

History of a Night 50 Years Ago.
I_ 0 all the causes that tended to promote
intemperance fifty years ago, perhaps
none were more prJlitic in evil conse
quences than the bah:Ls and examples
(al those called ‘• Mil.tary men." It is
well known that every able-bofed c:ti
zen between the ages of b and 45 was
subject to perform military duly, which
consisted in attending company musters
twice 'and regimental musters once a
•
year.
A mart who was in active life in chose
days informs the that he then lived in
Broome county, N. V., near the North
line of it. Said he. The country be
ing new and sparcely settled, we had to
go.to Binghamton to attend regimental
trainings, which was a distance of twenty
two miles. The soldiers many of
them being. poor, and the i'dads bad, we
were compelled to perform the journey
on foot. Consequently, by the time we
had walked to Binghamton and been put,
through - a hard day's drill, our physical'
strength would be nearly exhausted.—
But, being anxious to get home, we
wou Id?g,enerally on being d istnissed, start
for home., and arrive at a place known
as the Forks of the Gilemung, where
it was usual to stop for the night. Here
weary and worn, a night's rest would
be greatly eneded. L-t. me tell . you
. how much we got. After zapper some
dozen of us were shown by the landlord
into an upper room, and went to bed.
Shortly a crowd collected in the room
beneath us, for the purpose, as they said,
of having a °Set down." A Chairrhan
was chosen to preserve order, and several
.committees to perform the various busi
ness that was thought necessary. A
large table was placed in the center
of the room, set out with bottles of liquor
and glasses, and the company were pre
ferred for business, which .would com
mence something in this way : A mem
ber gets up and says, Mr. Chairman, I
move that the company be introduced to
the Lion,' which being seconded, put,
and carried, one of the committee
would repair, singing a march, to where
the company were seated, and taking
one to the table, order him to Face to
the right! Face to the left and then,
'Face the Lion !' which was the bottle
of brandy, from which the committee
would pour a full bumper which he must
drink, and then be marched to his seat.
So each member in succession must be
put through the •same ceremony, when
the business of the evening would be
fairly begun. Occasionly singing would
be called for, when i a kind of monoton
ous chant would be sung, the company
keeping time with their fist upon the
S table. if inime of the bottlesllid glasses
would be jarred from the table and
dashed on the floor, it seemed to giva
zest to the amusement.- Reader, in
order that you may understand what
follows, I want you to bear in mind that
this was a company, styling themselves
gentlemen. consisting 'of field and com
pany officers and others, comprising
men who esteemed themselves, and were .
considered by others as leading men in
community.
One of them, late in the night, moved
for a committee to go out into the bar
room for the purpose of ascertaining if
the ...rowdies' drinking there were as
drunk as 'we are here.' Carried, and
committee appointed, which on.its return
reported that they were not so drunk
the bar-roam as .we are.' Report not
accepted, and committee sent back, who
returned with the same report, which
alter a close poll was accepted. About
this time, the landlord coming into our
room, some of us asked him to quiet the
the noise below, that we might get a
little sleep. He went into their room
and requested them to retire to rest; in
stead of which, however, they went into
a yard and found a beetle with which
they would strike up against the ceiling
under us, and call for us to keep quiet
for t h ey could not sleep, &c. We then
gave up *the idea of sleeping in the
house, and we got up and went into the
barn, some getting. on the mows and
others on the floor. We were just con
gratulating ourselves that we had es
caped from the noise, when • the. door
opened and a deputation of the `gentry'
arrived, as they said, looking for desert
yrs. After a sharp contention we were
compelled to get up and march off to
the house and into the room, where they
were, celebrating their orgies. My
brother and myself watching our oppor
tunity escaped to another room. We
were soon followed with a determination
to take us back; but putting ourselves
on the defensive they finally left us.
Towards morning, one of their nuin •
ber having absented himself, was hunted
up, and cour: martial organized, and he
put upon trial, found guilty of desertion,
and sentenced to be burnt at the stake.
About day light they were ready to put
the sentence into . execution. The pris
oner Was taken out into the yard, tied
to a sapling, and surrounded by straw
and fine brush which was set on fire.
When the candidate for martyrdom,
thinking the business was assuming a
somewhat serious aspect,, by great exer
tion succeeded in getting loose from his
fastenin g s, and ran for a shrub oak hill
not far distant, followed
,by the whole
company, whooping and halooing
like hounds in full -cry. The fellow
finally made his escape, his hair and
clothes badly singed.
This performance ended the display
for that time ; and among other items in
the bill for . their night's amusement, if
such it might be called, was one of
fifteen dollars for damages done the
house."

March 20, 1847, since which time it has stood
at the head of the list at all tho State and ceun
