The Committee appbinted by this Conven
tion respectfully report, that .we consider
the ti - dlowing principles as...settled, and they
are principle , which we have` resolved in
future cous►stentJy to maintain,:
Ist,' That intemperance is h great evil—
regarded in a physical, moral
,relt
i:lous. or social point of new. •
2nd., That to the drinking usagesof Society.
by which 'we meanfjhe use of intoxicating
liquors as a beverage. is to be attributed the
evil of Intemperance. Consequently if drunk
enness is ever to be suppressed these usages
must he abandoned, and we can, therefore,
recognise no man as a friend of Temperance
who lends his influence, or example direct
ly or indireetls to the keeping up of these
usages.
3. That even man has some influence for
good or evil—either twadvance or retard the
cause of Temperance ; that we regard this as
particularly the case in respect to civil offi
cers. whether legislative, judicial or execu
tia•e—their example and influence must ma
terially strengthen the hands of the friends
of Temperance,• or retard-and nullify their
efforts to advance this good.
• -1. Thatiu‘view of this• undeniable truth.
we express it as our clear, honest conviction
that no true friend of temperance can con
sistently cast his and thus assist in ele
vating to office ai ••,- than reliable tem ,
perance men; that who are not en
gaged in the may , r traffic of in-
toxuating
ingly rent their p) to accommoda
tion of drinking . .its, or do not
practically discountenance the drinking us
ages of society./ •
Such are the principles which we would
recommend for the adoption of this society;
dad nuw as to the mode of catiying out
these principles in Political action we would
recommend the adoption of the following
resolutions:
1. That we disclaim the idea of organiz
ing a new political party : this we consider
equally ~unwise as uncalled- for.
2. That, our ohiect is to induce existing
political organizations to give us such, men
for our suffrages as the above describe. They
are certainly able to gratify us in this rea
sonable request, and if they will not do so,
to the friends of Intemperance, not to us
must they look for support.
3. That in order to carry out these princi
ples as far as in our power at this time, we
solemnly pledge ourselves not to vote for
any candidate for office in this county unless
his conduct and character are such as entitle
him to be regarded as a reliable Temperance
man. and we also recommend sister associa
tions throughout this County and State to
adapt the same course of action.
The Preamble which embodied the plat
form for the Convention and the accompany
re..tutions. were unanimously adopted, with
the exception of the 3d Resolution. A de
bate. arose upon that Sectio in which Messrs.
Cummings. Walker and T Li, opposed its
adoption. ft was sustained by . rs. Jen
nings, Banuan, Chichester, Taylor, Thomp
son. Russel, Steck and Porter. Th 3d Sec
tion was then adopted,fiVe in the Co vention
dissenting.
The Committee then read the following
Preamble and Resofutions, which were una
nimously adopted:
WHEAEAS in order to the complete success
of the Temperance enterprise, it is necessa
ry to unite all classes and both sexes in the
work ot
.this blessed reform; and whereat
this Convention have observed with feelings
of pain, that in many places throughout our
county. Temperance Societies are permitted
to become extinct,, and the whole of the
Temperance movement thrown into the
hands of the Sons of Temperance.
Therefore Resolved, that while we rejoice
in the successes of the -various divisions
throtighcut this county—vet we nevertheless
most earnestly urge the formation of local.
Societies upon the friends of this cause, in
such places as are destitute of them ; and
the reorganization of such societies as may
through any cause have become inefficient;
and -to use their most zealous efforts in the
formation and support of such local Societies.
Resolved, That we respectfully request the
Judges of our Courts to rigidly enforce all
the laws in existence against the Liquor traf
fic—and also to enforce the recent Orders of
the Court against this traffic on the Sabbath
when cases are brought before them. They I
also believe that the cause of Justice would.
not suffer even if cases charged are not posi
tively proved as to the actual drinking.—
The fact that .bottles are exposed, and that
people are_passing in and out of these estab
lishments from behind the screenat thedoor,
ought to be sufficient evidence in cases of this
kind brought before them—particularly when
many of these Houses have been presented
by the Grand Jury of the County as a great
public nuiscritcc;
Resolved, that this Convention respectful
ly request those Coal Operators who conti
nue to have liquors sold at their Stores,
throughout this County—to cease said traf
fic, as well from our confidence, that they
Will sustain no material injury by giving
it up: as also from the conviction entertained
by this Convention, that such example before
the eyes of those who are keepers of Beer,
and tippling Houses, tends 'to countenance
them in their unholy and ruinous business.
Resolved, That believing that the cause
of Temperance will increase just in pro
portion as , the traffic in intoxicating liquors
ceases, it becomes the duty of every friend
of Temperaicero use all the influence in his
power to induce merchants to, ease traffie
iqg in the article in their respective commit•
nitres,—and in all cues to give their cus
tom to dune who cease to deal in the article
The' following address to the people of
Schuylkill County, was submitted to the
Convention by the Rev. Mr. Cooley, on be
half of the Committee appointed at a recent
meeting of the Schuylkill Counts Tempe
rance Society. After it was read it was
unanimously adopted, and ordered to be pub
lished as a part of the proceedings of the
Cotivention._
TO TILE FRIENDS OF LAW. ORDER
and Temperance in Schuylkill County
Fellow Citizens:—ln addressing you, IF; a
convention assembled for the purpose of con
sidering the most effectual naeansltit further
ing the cause of temperance, we would not
stop to discuss the general subject of the evils
of intemperance : that would he needless ; it
has long since been decided at the bar of an
enlightened public opinion, to be by far the
greatest evil that afflicts our land.
' By the philanthropic efforts of the wise,
the good, and the true,..who are ever on the
alert, watching and striving to :further the
best interests of humanity, the dark abomi
nations the dreadful - horrors of intemperance
have been in some measure brought to light.
The moral sense of theeommunity has been
shocked by the hideous. picture of crime and
wickedness which has .been shown demon
stratively to have • their•origin in the use of
intoxicating liquors as a beverage, and by
this means it has become disgraceful to he
seen indulging, in the free use of the intoxi
cating cup. This is a great point gained,
but it is by no means sufficient to cure the
evil. Shame may prevent those from fre
quenting the - : and groggeries, who prize
heir reputati. . and have a regard for their
moral standi ~' .41 the estimation Of -those
whose opin•.n iirof real value; but there
are mulct ~,-,,,-.• o glory in 'their shame—
t3; o, 5010. 47 I' y can get the poison cup,
WI ~,. ''" - ..t . ,.. • tints to the very dregs, not
only atAites rifice of all that is virtuous and
honorable a d manly, but to the utter ruin
of' their d nderit families and the total
e l
wreck Of themselves, soul and body, forever.
These must be reached by other and more'
stringent and severe measures, if they are
ever prevented front the commission of such
dreadful evils; and it is in order that we may.
if possible, arouse every lover of law, order
And temperance, tb-a sense of the duty which
he individually owe\o the community, that
we send forth this e rnest appeal : First,
our position is, that thXpecumari; interests
of the county are suffering greatly} by the
use of Intoxicating liquo'ts as a beverage.
It appears, from a moderate`calculation, that
the cost to the mining region for alcaholic
liquors, is $300,000 per annum, making
S 7 50 to each inhabitant, and to`each family
consisting of five persons, 537 50. ~ Now
this, be it remembered, is entirely a. super
fluous expenditure,. even viewing it to the
most favorable light ; for it is well known
that all alcoholic liquors, as a beverage, are
not necessary, or ever productive of the,
slightest benefit, but, on the other band, are
highly injurious to the health, undermining
the constituren, and enervating to the whole
physical ma ; Milne' early disease, and
leading to p mat th. And shall we
pay 5300,0 annually, for that which as a
beverage nei;er does any good to a single hu
man being, and which can, at best, be view
ed as a poisonous lasury? But this sum paid
out for these liquor's, is but a small item in
the, vast amount that they cost the commu
nity : the loss of Urns and labor, the acci
dents,-the damage done to the various works
in; our region, the crime, the pauperism at
tributable to intemperance, must be added to
the tax which alcohol levies upon, and ab
sialutely extorts, from the county. Is it rea
sonable that we should subinit in silence to
such a burthen ? Is it right to pay such a
tax for such a purpose ? ' Because a few indi
viduals can make a little money by the sale
of ardent spirits, shall the whole community
sutler I Besides, it is not true that any in
the long ma are the gainers by. the traffic in
spirits. The sale of ardent spirit:4*in our
stores, is the greatest inducement and en
couragement to their use, by the customers
of those stores ; and the use of the intoxica
ting beverage is the great source of poverty
and bad debts. It is, then, as a general rule,
destruchre to the interests of the grocer or
merchant to. traffic in ardent spirits. Besides,
we solemnly believe that any sale of the ar
ticle, except as a medicine or for the arts, is
morally wrong, and that the highest interests
of the community, imperatively demand that
patronage should be withdrawn from those
who will persist in the sale of the poison, to
the ruin of their fellow men.
will not know-
Secondly —Weappeal to you in behalf of
violated law. We refer particularly to the
law in reference to the sale of ardent spirits
on Sunday. , That wholesome, and we may
say most essential law is recklessly set at de
fiance. While he who deals in the necessaries
of life is compelled, by the law of the land
and the naoral sense -of the community, to
close his doors and cease his traffic on the
;Lord's day, the vendor of poison is permitted;
in palpable : violation of the laws of God and
roan, to open hit doors, and entice men thither
to their destruction. Now, this is a great, a
manifold, a: terrible evil. The Lord's day
was instittited as a day of holy rest—this
converts it into a day of sinful labor. It was
designed as, a day of peace—this makes it a
day of riot. It was intended as a sacred time
for the worship of the Great Creator—this
profanes the holy season with bacchanalian
revels in honor of Satan. It was designed to
be a type, a foretaste of Heaven—this makes
it an emblem oi, a preparation for Hell.—
And thui, that day, instituted for the highest
good, and when duly otiserved, calculated to
promoteit;rts so perverted as to become the
greatest evil. Especially is this the case
in the mining region.
We will draw a The Sunday
comes : It is a day of leisure. The laborers,
forbidden by the laws to pursue their daily
toils, naturally look around for some war to
spend the day. They live at a distance from
a house of worship, and have no pious incli
nations to draw them thither, The groggery
and the he*,r shop are close at hand : there
they assemble with their boon companions.
Drinking, carousing, gambling, fighttag, ri
oting, forth their Sunday's employment.—
Scenes occur which it were a shame to men
tion. Men and Women, made in the image
of God, degrade themselves below the beasts.
Monday comes-:they are unfit for labnr.—
The interests of their employers suffer, and
their families go hungry and naked. Now,
the cause of all this, is Sunday tippling, and
the cause of Sunday drinking is a violation of
that law which forbids to sell upon that day.
Shall this* law continue to be , transgressed
with impunityl The evil is rapidly increa
ing: every one acquainted with the mining'
region, must see it, and deplore it if he be
not willing, for :the sake of paltry gain, to
shut his eyes to, the' horrible and. miserable
picture. , Nor is it in the mining villages
only that . thii salutary law against selling
liquor on the Sabbath is transgressed ; but in
our largest towns, in the principal streets
thereof, beneath the very shades of our Sane•
mire walls, the him Is violited, the palm

is temptingly exposed for sale—is actuilly
I sold in largequantities. Drunkenness is thus
fostered and-increased, and - the profane oaths
of the besotted inebriate -mingle with the
songs of praise to Him who saith he will
not hold him guiltless that taketh. His dame
In vain. Shall this be suffered togontinne 3
Shall that law, which guarantees to us one
day in seven, for the quiet worship of Al. mighty God, become a dead letter, and this
day itself:so divine, so needful for the spir
itual edilUmtion of man, and the good order
of society; become a day of traffic in ardent
'spirits—of drunkenness and riot ? It will
depend entirely upon the friends of law, or.
der and temperance, 'whether this shall be
he so, or not. Youthave both the rig, la and
the power to put a stop .to • this abominable
Sunday rippling, and should exercise them
efficiently without fear or favor, and at once.
Nor is this course either fanatical, arbitrary,
or in the least unfriendly. Th'ey are the best
friends to the venders of ardent spirits, who
use all lawful means to cause them to aban
don such a misery -engendering and crime
making business, and to seek a - livelihood in
those honorable pursuits which confer a bles
sing, rather than entail a curse upon their
fellow men. And next to the poor drunkard
and his heart-broken wife, and beggared chil
dren, the liquor sellers will owe their thanks
to the friends of law, order, and temperance.
for the efforts they are making in this cause.
But, Thirdly—We remark that the pres
ent license system needs reform. It is now
becoming .a serious question whether any li
cense for the sale of ardent spirits, upon any
terms, except as an article to be used in the
arts, in the sacraments, and for the purposes
of medicine, be not wrong. SOrne of our
new and one of our older States, have taken
ground against all license to sell intoxicating
liquors as'a beverage, thereby making it ilk
gal to traffic in the article for the purpose of
drinking. This is high ground, but never
theless, its, the true ground, and whenever
the majority of a community is prepared to
maintain this high position-, it should be taken
asa matter of duty andfearlessly occupied. If
drunkeness and the crime, pauperism and im
morality, which it brings with if, be destruc
tive of the best Interests and truest prosperi
ty of a community, then such community has
a right to banish that which makes drunken
ness, from use. It is one of the inalienable
rights,of" life,liberty and the pursuit of hap
piness," or rather, it is all these rights com
bined, which we exercise when we legislate
for the prevention and suppression of the sale
and use of alcohol as' a beverage. But the
first step towards reform in this community
would seem to be the enacting ofmorestrin-
license laws, or at least, the rigorous I
exactioi. of strict obedience to those laws al- !
ready in existence. It appears from the Ap- ;
pmisor's record for 1850, that there were !
licensed in this county 174 Taverns,l2l Beer
shops, 161' Stores ! The unlicensed places,
properly called groggeries, kept In counte
nance, fed and . sustained by these, ire al- !
most innumerable, dealing out liquid-fire for j
gain! The Revenue from Licenses amoun
ted to about slow, while the increased tax
upon the community caused by the drunken
ness induced by the grantingof these Licences
could not, upon a moderatecalculation, have
been less than $50,000. As one item of this
expense, look at the county I
Alms-house—out
of 286 persons admitted to the POUT House
in 1850, 154 were drunkards, and of the re
maining 432, more than one-half were sent
there in consequence of drunkenness. Owing
to this great influx of paupers it became ne
cessary to draw upon the county Treasury
for the sum of e 8,700 for their maintamance
over and above the produce of the farm, a
sum more than twice as large as that realized
by the State far Licenses. This tax"may be
set down against intemperate drinking,as the I
Farm would amply support all those who I
become poor from other causes.
Does not the License system need restric
tion and reform, when it brings forth; such
fruits—when it imposes such a burden upon
virtuous industry, and inflicts such disgrace
and misery upon, helpless families? Would
it not be far better to pay $4,000 to the State
and thereby save the tax of $46,000 to the
the county, and - what is unspeakably more.
save the crime, the dark deeds, the bitter ,
tears, the woe inseparable from the too free i
use of the intoxicating beverage encouraged 1
by the License ? '
We might say much more did our limits
permit, but' we conclude with the hope that
enough has been said to-awaken the interest.
and call forth the exertions of the true friends
of the cause, 'and to convince many who have
hitherto been inactive, that it is"high time
for them to be up and doing. Men of busi
ness, your interests are at stake. Look to
them. Parents, your households are in dan
ger. Watch over and guard them. Patriots,
your national , character is threatened with
ruin. Come to the rescue and retrieve it and
prevent so' sad a catastrophe., Christians.
your divine and holy religion is prevented
from doing its great and glorious work, wres
tle in the; fear and by the love of God against
this spirit of wickedness which is thus lead
ing so many immortal souls to 'a worldling's
and a drunkard's grave.

as follows :

Allow me to state that this paragraph was

LET THE PEOPLE REMEMBER
Several days since we found by the Jour

three successive years voted against giving
the Public Printing io the lowest bidder. The
fact stands beyond contradiction, and convicts
William Bigler of steadfast opposition to a
reform which was finally adopted in spite of
his opposition, and has saved about FOUR
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS to
the Public Treasury ! Will Mr. Bigler's
friends ask a people, anxious for economy
and reform, to vote for him, who when in

ILEI4I"PU‘:IET ELECTIOIN
Our Lt,cofcco friends were premature in
their rejoicuag over their election its this
State. Ihe Whigs, as usual, have carried
both branches of the. Legislature, and elected
their Governor tinci g Lit utisnant Governor—
majority for Dipia about 3.500.
I'ENNILSSEU
In this State the Whigs hare elected their
candidate, Gen. Cam rnpbell,,Governor, by la
tocreased majority over the vote of 1849.
The Whigs have also gained three members
of Coogress, and both branches of the Legis.
lature are Whig. Majority in the State 2000.
=I
The returns from this State are stow in
coming in but, in the cutest as far es heard
from, we have gaiued two members of Con
gress. The Legislature is still uncertain.
NORTH. CALLOLJNA
Edward Stanley , the noble champion of
the Union upon the fluor of last Congress is
re-elected by an increased majority.
The truion men have carried everything
before them. Congressional Delegation
binds, 5 Whigs-3 Democrats.
The Suuth and West have dose glorious•
ly, and the Deiuutonists and Lticofocos sr*
struck dumb.
MONEY MARKET.
Nothing of importance transpiring in the
Money Market to-day. , There has been some
heavy failures and wore still talked of on the
change. The glorious tffects of the Tariff
of 15416, is doing its work well and our best
business men prostrated by its operant:in.—.
Let us cumulate the example of the South
and West, and Pends)ivania will be safe.
ARRIVAL OF GYPSIES.
It is said a band of Gypsies lately landed at
New York, among the immigtants brought
from Europe by an emigrant ship. They
are now encamped with their covered wag
gons, in the neighborhood of Hoboken, and
report themselves from the vicinity of Dur
ham and New Castle. England. The women
and children are said to possess the peculiar
physical features or their strange race, having
slender figures a nd on ahundanceof black
hair. The men pursue the busineis of an.
kears, and the females cook their meals by
fires made in the open air. It is probably
that we are indebted fur this odd importation
of humanity to the incress,d factltties for
immigration afforded by steam navigation ;
and should thin small nucleus of a new race
of people which we hare acquired in these
Gipsy Immigrants be enlarged by accessions
hereafter, it may he reserved to the United
States to salve the problem whether It is pos
sible, under any !arm of social and political
instiutions, to amalgarnalei with other races
a strange order of cusrnopulit,s, who liave;
immemorially, been nornad:c in habit, and
intolerant of 'any admixture with a different
people.
