will rest upon your shoulders.. It will be fbr
you to see that no blot is made upon thesss
cutcheon of our proud nation's glory. To the
young men of our beloved land must -we look
for the perpetuity of all We hold 'dear and sa
cred in life. The far off generations of 'the

influence which will tell upon the future desti
nies of, mankind ! You owe a duty, not only
to yourselveg, but to your fellow men, and a
Part of that duty - is to alleviate, as far as in
your power, the , sorroWS and trials of suffering
humanity.around you. How can this duty be
met and discharged so well as through the in
strumentality of a society of this kind ? Sonia
of you have fathers who belong to the associa
tion. Some of them have been members many
years : they love it, they have built it up to its
present 4alth r prosperity, and greatness, and
when they die it would be a consolation to
them to know-that their sons are members,
and will still maintain and support it. Be
sides, though you now feel strong and active,
though your arm is sinewy, and full of might,
disease may lay its withering grasp upon your
manly frame, your stalwart arm may be un
nerved, death may: mark you for its. victim.
For weeks, and 'months, and even years, you
may be .stretched - upon a bed of Pain and suf
fering. for "we cannot tell what a day or an
hour may bring Ruth." Your society then
would be a friend indeed. In "Adams Divi
sion!, Sons of Temperance," of which I have the
honor to be a member, we_ had a young man
who was confined to his home and bed for up
wards of a year: all that time we paid
him his weekly benefits, and since his death
have paid to his widow sonic $55 00. Had he
not been a member of our division he would
have seen hsrd times, for he was poor, and
earned his daily bread in the sweat of his brow.
Ills is one case in a thousand , : it may be your
casts Ag,ain. I would invite the influenceof
the female portion of the community in favor
of this enterprise. Itis true, Ladies, you can
nothecomo members yOursolves, but you can
induce your husbands, fathers, and sons to join,
and it may be that some of you have even in
fluence enough to induce some crabbed old
bachelor to join, though that I very much ques
tionsfor it' female charms, and female loveli
ness are not sufficient inducements for them to
leave the horrors of single blessedness. I con
sider their case rather hopeless. In this coun
try the female occupies an elevated stand in
society, a position front which she may, and
does, exert a powerful influence upon the stern
er tex. She wields that lever whose fulcrum
is childhood, whose length is all time, and
whose sweep is eternq. The lessons, which
your boy learns at. your knee, in Walley, go
with him and follow him through the world.
When - he leaves the old family roof,and goes
down into the stern conflict of life. when the
big clouds of gloom gather thick and heavy
around him. and the star of his hope is almost
extin b uished in the night of adversity, metum-y
-carries him back to the home of his boyhood,
the voice of his kind mother steals o'er him,
like the soft whisperings of by gone ditys s ter
words of advice, admonition and comfort, again
sound in his ear, and under their sacred Wilts:
ence -lie gathers up his sinking hopes, nerves
himself again for the conflict. and presses on
to high honors and distinction. The home of
our childhOod, and a mother's care, who can
forget I Through the agency and influence of
woman; thrones and empires haVe been shaken
to their centre, monarclu have quaked in their
strong holds, dynasties have been overturned,
mighty revolutions in goVerttinent have been
accomplished, and some of the most stupendous
enterprises on record have been carried to a
successful termination. We all bow before its
power. Let the females of this community
exert their influence in favor of this association,
and, my word for it, where you now have one
hundred Sind fifteen members, in a year or two
you. will double your number. And why, La
dies, should you not exert your influence in
favor of the society ? It is greatly to your ad
vantage for when the member is sick the
benefits he may draw go to your support as
tvell as his ; when lie dies it is his widow who
draws the funeral benefits, and your Children
who are provided for. Throw, then, your in
fluence in favor of the association. In conclu
sion, let me say to the membership,—You have
a society. here which is an honor to our county.
and a blessing to you and your fellow men.
Nourish it with a parental care, guard it with
a vigilant eye. Let no root of bitterness spring
up among you, let no quarrelings or hick eri iss
enter its sacred enclosure. Cultivate one for
the other affection and kindness. Suffer no
wolf, in sheep's clothing, to steal in among you;
bad men exist in almost every department of
life, for wherever there is a paradise the evil
one is sure to come. Remember that even
the pure and holy cause of freedom had its
Benedict Arnold. Guard against: such men,
and may you go on in the future as you have
done in the past, increasing in ,num hers, wealth.
and influence, until you occupy a proud stand,
and - most exalted position.
