We aro told that ineph Itowt.ing, LS Jan. 1, 1856, 1 00 some individual will suffer if the law be repealed irts.'llnnipshire, to July 1,1856. 2 00 The law had been clear as to the'periorl for which ,rrick di Reuben, to July 1,1850, 2 00 license, were granted, and those who voluntarily incurred the penalties of the lave have no right to commiseration froia the Legislature of Pennsyl vania, who were commissioned,to enforce - the law. "The present law was objectionable in some of its features. He did not like the penalty of lin, prieonment, or the .encouragement it gives to , pub": lie informers; heit best to progress slow ly and to carry-the-Peep!. with him ; but much as he objected to some of the, hiinor details, he was not prepared to vote for a repeat because the 'prin ciples on which the law is based nre noble. It had been inspired by good motives; its object had been to correct an evil which had worked deep degradation to the,people of the State. The great object of the law bad been to prevent the sale of liquor in bar-rooms, with its temptations, hilarity and fascinations-bar-rooms which were the foun tain head of all this business. If bar-rooms could be obliterated, immense blessings would be con ferred upon the people. An gentleman ever sate a bar-room in Europe attached to a hotel, anal he hoped to see the time when oneconiti not be seen in thilicountry. " The law had changed the system of licensing frotn the County Treasurer to the Courts ! of Quar ter Sessions; and only American citizens were .au: therited to Pell liquor, both which provisions he defended: If •%ilia be repealea, in Philadelphia they will be thrown back upon the law of 1849, ;which had been, l a bounty on intemperance; which had atitnulnted `pauperism and crime, almost ns much as if a premix m had been offered to drunk enness. -The Sunday law waiono of a series of progressive ennettrients, and he could not yield an Inch Utitil he had the security of some efficient re formntory legislation. If ,this were not offered, ho would vote againtt the repealing bill. He was for reform-for abating this tremendous evil, unintimi dated by clamor, and marching forward with the white banner of peace and good will to humanity in his hands.
