TO - TUE FRIENDS• OF PROHIBITION ,1N ADAMS
COUNTY.
' Fellow Citicens: The Undersigned, in behalf of a commit
tee appointed at a meeting of the friends of Trohibition, in
Gettysburg, on the 231 inst., beg to address you a few words
upon the important duty devolving upon the friends of Hu-
Inanity 'at the approaching election.' It may not be unknown
to you that the Legislature, at its last session, passsed enact
providing for an expression of the will of the voters in the
• Commonwealth in reference to the passage "of a Prohibitory
Liquor Law. .In accordance with this act, therefore, ;twill
be expected of each qualified voter. at the coming election. to
deposit a ballet either VoR or an i'VSST Prohibition. Feeling
. convinced that the subject thus presented to your considera
tion and claiming your suffrage, far transcends in importance
• the ordinary questions decided at the ballot:box. we respect
fully ask yonato weigh the matter calmly atal seriously before
' casting your vote. We believe that results the most women
: tousdepen 1 upon the decision- which the. people of Pennsyl
vania shall giVe to this question • —results comparison
with-which-the-election_ef this_or_thet candidate sinks into
insigmilleance. It will be a direct vote upon ° a great
• pie. disconnected from men an..l in lependent of party.—a
plain and'un nistekable answer to the interrogatory . • 'Shall
our State he cursed any longer with the Liquor traffic, or
!
shall it not?" if a majority of the votes: cast shall be in
• - favor of Prohibition, it shall be considered the wish of the
k people, and no legislator dare vote against a Prohibitory Law.
• But if a majority MI ill be fauna to be adverse to this measure,
its friends must abide by the decision and cease to agitate
0 the subject.
la Heretofore, fellow citizens, many of you have been deterred
f, from voting with us because of political differences of opinion
on other subjects connected indirectly with our cause. Now,
I; however, you carrot urge this objection. We come before
, you not to Solicit your support for any man or set of men.
t, not to ask you to identify yourselves with any potitical party.
but with. the simple naked question of Prohibition stripped
r•f: of every thing but its own intrinsic importance, ant ask you
; to lend it your suffrage. Here is a grand rallying point where
Whigs Mel Democrats, Natives and Foreigners. Protestants
1,-, 4 and Catholics—all who love their country an I their race,
k : can meet on coalmen ground, and record their vote in favor
-of good order and sobriety. Politicians cannot now accuse
• us of inking temperance with politics, for we have at their
- request takea it out of politics, and are willing it shall stand
or fall on its own merits. You -may vote for whomsoever
you please for office. and we will do the same. With candi
dates we have nothing to do as a bonenittee : but in the name
of sufferins humanity. in the name of countless widows and
I " -- Orphans, made such by the liquor traffic, in the name of truth'
and virtue, in the nuns of heaven, we entreat you to unite
with us in purging our land from the greatest bane of human
progress and free institutions.
Friends of Temperance, we appeal to you as veterans in
this glorious cause. Let no in litre rence or apathy steal upon
you. Our enemy will be awake and vigilant, and we must
prepare to meet him. Soine of you may be oppposed to the
plan of submitting the question to the people for 'decision;
but let not this prevent you from discharging present duty.
The iP.SaV le upon us. and we must meet it.—meet it like men,
and triumph in the cause of truth, or be ingloriouelyalefeat
eal. Let us take up the gauntlet which an anti-prohibition
legislature him thrown down, and meet our enmities on their
own terms. 4f we are. defeated the cause of prohibition is
dead for years to come ; and our ommenta will Jeeringly
point to the election of , 54 and tell us to our face the people
do not want such a law. Up, then, friends of temperance,
friends of hitinanity., Let the cries of widows and orphans,
the misery of homae made desolate by intemperance, and the
poverty. shame and crime which everywhere attend the
traffic in ardent spirits, inspire your hearts, and nerve your
arm to battle nobly in behntf of humanity and truth.
Parents of Adams dimity, to you we appeaLas. to those
who can feel with us on this _subject. "Have you son in

THE DARSIE R6SOLITTION. —We' stated last
week, that the late Whig County Convention
refused, or otnitted. to pass a resolution in fa,-
vor of Darsie, the regularly nominated- Whig
candidate for Canal Commissioner. This is
literally true. notwithstanding the proceeding:,
as publisliedilt the Journal, contain such a
resolution. We can produce the tiistitnony of
more than twenty persons who were present.
to prove" that neither that resolution, nor any
thing like it, was read or passed- by the Cott,
vention. The resolutions that did pass—or
that were ifferect, for we believe no vote was
taken upon them—were published in the Pre Ns
of the following Tuesday. and, while Pollock
and Stnyser are conspicuously tnentitWnA,
Darsie's name is not in one of them. 'lt was
not until after this
with
was noticed, and
remarked upon with dissatisfation by certain
old fashioned Whigs who happen to - have been
born on ttie - satne foreign . soil with Darsie, that
the Darsie resolution, which appears in the
Journal, was so much as written. These are
the facts in the case. It is true. and we defy
even the officers of the Convention to contra
dict.it, that no resolution in__fasor Darsie
was passed, and that none was written until
three days after the C)nrention adjourned.
From the Reaiing Gazette
sets of resolutions, the one from a portion of
the people protesting against his new fangled
progress preaching,, and the others - sustaining
him in his course. It was obvious that a
breach had been made, and that there - were
ample materials for a warfare. Our brethren
will pkto-ba.bl3L4,iisdover, when it i. too late, that
it might have been better for them to follow
the example of, Christ and the .apostles, by
preaching the gospel, and letting politics along.
Reading the Future by the Past.
There is a truth made memorable by un
varying history, says the Washington Union,
that no ism, no faction, - ever rears its_ head in_
this country that:is not hostile to the demo
cratic .party. - And why ? Because in every
instance, with instinctive sagacity, the dem
o
cratic party denounces all isms.—Look at the
long procession of factions which have- arisen
from the disappointments of politicians, like
deadly miasma from decaying vegetation, and,
like the pestilence itself, - have succeeded in
prostrating many a tree and heroic defender of
the truth. - -Against each the democratic party
_raised its stalwart arm, and, after a brief
struggle, each has been consigned to, merited
oblivion. Behold! Hartford conventionists, na
tional republ leans, anti-masons, conservatives,
native-Amerienns, abolitionists, ultra -temper
ance-men, and now intolerants and abolition.
ists again. The only, antagonist of these, fac
tions, as one after another they rose into be
ing, was the democratic party. This was the
party of their first and their last hatred--that
the target of their poisoned arrows—that the
fortress against which their impulses and their
energies were direbted. To the whigs each of
them became an object of affection no' less
spontaneous : but, by the - time both sides .(the
whigs and the factions) were beginning to
-flatter—themsel-ve:B--tha t fl • •

democrats regained the field, and resumed their
