We have from time, to time heretofore
called public attention to the fine stock
of seasonable goods at the merchant
tailor establishment of Henry Hale,
corner of Sixth (late St. Clair) and Penn
streets, and have, on these occasions,
spoken of the excellence of quality and
extent of variety of his goods, as Well as
of the great care always taken by Mr.
Hale to employ none bat the most skill
ful cutters, obtained at .great expense,
and also ot the conformity of.his work
to the taste of; his numerous lasblopable
.customers. 'At thli time we have to say
that never before ha s Mr. Hale been so
well prepared for' a 'change In.. the sea

large a stock of new Cloths and Coast

GREAT BRITAIN.
LONDON, Aligust 2.—The Solicitors of
Lady Byron's family have written a
communication to the Louden journals, ,
distinctly stating that the article of Mrs. !
Stowe in the Atlantic Monthly, on the
reasons of the separation of Lord' and
Lady Byron, is not a complete or auth
entic statement, and does not involve
any direct evidence. Nothing is com
municated but the recollectionit of a
conversation had thirteen years since,
and impressions - derived from ififinto
script read under great excitement.
Witkeut conceding that Mrs, Stowe's
narrative contains a. complete account
of the relations between Lord and Lady
Byron, they protest against it as a gross
breach of trust and confidence, sk,incon
sistent with Mrit. Stowe's "recernaterida
tleins to Lady Byron, and AL:vibliition of
the express terms of her will. Lady
Byron's representatives and descendants
absolutely disclaim al coanttplce of
the articaea*tich,inas.publiftdid thout
their litlvilitre or consen .
The News thinks that Mrs. Stowe's
narrative does not contain the • whole
truth, but is probably truesi' far as it
goes. It cannot see that she has any
thing but made a fair and-valuable con
tribution to the veracity and exactitude
of history. - •
Mr. Wiilin , the bow oar pf the Oxford

the Harvards by only a length and three
quarters. He says that just , before
hey (the. Oxfords) , reachild -the:
ship at Mortlake, they were some
`four or five boat lenizths ahead, when a
row boit in the:stream caused them to
lose a length for fear of fouling: In id
(Edon to this, hiving started a certain
distance above the aqueduct at Putney,
they expected to row only an equal dis
tance above the ship at Mortlake,
but having rowed that distance
and not; reselling the judge, they
thought the placing of the flak boat
had been forgotten, so they paddled on.
until they, came in. The Harvard men
all this time rowed with the same stroke
and determination which they had show
ed through the previous part of the race,
and gained considerably at the finish.
Mr. Willin says the Oxford crew fully

Judge Black, of Pa., read an editorial
- from the Tribune, viz: ~ .As to the effort
to prevent all men by law from drinking
spirituous liquors, nineteen-twentieths
of the American people will, in our
judgment, at all tines oppose it. Law
is force. It is gooff for nothing until
backed by the police,l the Sheriff 's posse ,
the constable's club, the army and
navy." *Judge B. then said that the idea
that they , intended
i !o employ force to
acooniplisli their w rk was ridiculous.
Tney worked only bb moral Bunion:
John N. Stearns, of New York, read a
1 letter from Hon. Edward C.' Delavan,
the veteran apostle Of Temperance. He
says: "I have be t: asked what my views
are with regard the use of the ballot.
I would igemise by saying, that I have
always been in favor of moral suasion—
moral suasion to. ind ace as many as'bos
:Bible to abandon the use and sale of in
- toxicating liquoas a drink—moral ens
skin also to co vines the voter in all
parties ' to see 1 to be his duty to' his
God, his family and his country to
Use his balloto destroy the license
system.' With my present views, I
am opposed o the policy of a
3 ,
separate' part which would ex
hapstitself in tying to attatn that end;
but I tyould a peal to total abstainers
and priihibitio ste t 3 within the respec- I
tive political rel a to make use of
their utmost i nfluence to bring about
the desired resuitti for by doing this
they do not is any' degree, interfere
'With politica l pties or act inconsistent- I
1 lycbut in any ju dgment take a great
religious quest! n out of partisan strife."
Mv. Delava
.Examiner,
qotes an article from the
Ntav York 'which takes the
ground ;that the evils; of intemperance
cannot be legisilatad out Of existence,
unless behind t e legislation Lies a vast
controlling mo 1 sentiment, bearingit
up, and giving it force, and says he
thinks"there is much practical wisdom
lid - those renter s. My own mind has'
been for some ti a tending in the same
direction."
Mr. Ransom New . Jersey, read .the
platform, as fol ows:
IV7tereasi Pro ection and allegiance are
reciprocal duties, and every citizen whp
yields' obedience to the just com
mands of his
o 'Government is entitled
to the full, 03M lete and perfect protec.
sten .01 that Government in the enjoy
ment of personal security, personal lib
erty and privatc property;
And Whereas', Tate traffic in intoxica
ting drinks grs 3 tly impairs the personal •
security, and normal liberty of large
masses of Gni nii, and renders private
- property insecure; :
And Whereas, The existing parties are
hopeleisly unwilling to adopt an ade
guide policy on this question;
Therefdre, we, in National Convention
assembled, as eitizeira Of this free iamb
lic, sharing in thesthities and responsi
bilities of its government, in the. die-.
charge of a solemn duty we owe to our
country and our race, unite in the fol.
'lowing declaration of principles:
Rre.t. That while we acknowledge the
pure patriotism and profound statesman
ship of those patriots who laid broad and
deep the foundations of this government,
securing at once the rightspf the States
severally and their inseparable union by
the Federal Constitution, we would not
merely garnish the sepulchres of our
republican fathers, but we do hereby re•
new our tolemn pledges of fealty to the
imperishable principles of civil and reli
gious liberty embodied in the Dec station
of American Independence and our Fed
eral Constitution.
. ..S'econd. That the traffic in intoxicating
beverages is a dishonor to christian civil
ization, inimical to the best interests of
society, a political wrong of unequalled
enormity, subversive of .the ordinary
objects of government, not 1 capable of
being regulated or restrained by any sys
tem of license whatever, but imperative
ly demaudibg for its suppression effec
tive legal' prohibition both by State 'and
National legislation. t - - -•-
Third. That in view of this, and inas
much as the existing political parties
either oppose or ignore thin great and
paramount question, and absolutely re
fuse to do anything toward the suppres
sion of the rum traffic, which is robbing
the nation of its brightest;intellects, de
stroying its national prosperhyand rap
idly undermining its very foundation,
we are driven by an imperative sense of
duty to gaa our connections wittuthese
political p arties and organize ourselves
into a National Anti-Dram -shop Party,
having for its primary object the entire
suppres don of the traffic in intoxicating
drinks. •
,Fourth. That while we adopt the name
of “The Autt-Dram ,shop Party" as . ex.
pressive of our primary object, and while
we denounce all repudiation of the pub.
lic debt, and pledge fidelity to the prin
ciples of the Declaration oflndepoodenee
'and the Federal Constitution, we !gem it
inexpedient to_gtve.prominence to other
political issues. I
Fiat. That a Central Executive; Cam
mittee of one from each State and, Terri
tory and the District of Columbia be ap
pointed by the Chair, whose duty it shall
i.e to take such action as in their judg
ment will best promote the interests of
the party?, The third plank of the plat
form called out a vigor°discuiss:op,

had axes to grind. , .

la Massachusetts the Whig party passed
the prohibition law, and the same party
did the same thing in Connecticut and
Maine. In Connecticut they fought the
temperance fight and went down with
Haat; cause. In the last Convention in
Maine Abe Republican party incorpo
rated a temperance plauk in theirlat.
form for and opposed the dew party pro eat.
Mr. Rmsell; of !Michigan, answered Mr
Jewett, denying to the' Republican party
that which Mr. Jewett had credited them
with. I He: undertook; to preive that.tha
Republican party had done. n othing for

Dir. Leonard sa id he was froui,Egypt,
and it was the wish of all Egyptians and
Christians that 'a third party be estab
lished. He said the -Republican plat
form meant' abolition and postoffices,
while the Democratic, pla tform meant
nigger and whiskey.: '
Mr. Tilton, of Wisconsin, said it was
now time for the temperance men to
sever political ties and form , a party with
this one plank for a platform. Be had
1 grave doubts about the success of the
movement. Is there any reasonable
prospect that they can draw enough peo
ple from the Republican party to over
come the remainder, and 'the Demo
-1 credo party. ,[a. voice, "1 will
pay a hundred dollars a dozen for all the
Democrats who will leave their party for
this one.") Temperance is not the only
question now in this country. There
are Important questions in which tem
perance men are interested;tand men are
not going to leave these important issues
and cleave and fight for one
idea. Now the political parties have
their machinery all ready, the lines laid
'and wires all ready to work. Give the I
' parties to understand that temperance
men will not support whisky men, and
after a defeat or two they will be careful i
whom they nominate Again.
Rev. Mr. Balch, of le.; a
Hiid th a t Mr.
I Tilton saw 'lions In' the way,d file
doubts; but "be that doubteth is damn
ed" as the party would be, if It hesita
ted. There was the old and rotten Dem-
Offetic party in the way, and the rocking
Republican party in the way, but with
the hap) sd God they would put, them
out of the way. Ile had been asked if
the temperance men Were going to split
up the Republican party? If that party
favored whisky, they would split It up,
and split it down. _ , 1
A resolution was here introduced, and I
passed by a unanimous vote, that the
nadie of the party be " The" ' National
Temperance Party," • ,
Rev.-Dr. Halfreld, of Chicago, said it
was painful to him to differ from men of
sense. He did not believe in the for
mation of a new party. What they
wanted was a conviction grown into the
mind that the liquor business was
wrong, and until that was done distinct
parties; are bog wood - and stubble. Ex
perience shows that where distinct Tem
perance questions were made the issue
they met with defeat. The' Temperance
men of Massachusetts say if they can
ward off the folly of a third party, and
make the Republicans believe that they
would desert the ;linty if they did not do
right, they would get what they. wanted.
The party that hopes for the organiza
tion of a third party is the one -that was
trying to break up the Union and de
sired to keep up slavery;, it-is what-they
want. -.
The ConvetiknfiraPeNesed and rase-
The
at SlP:44:ll4lWdiscussion of
thathird plazas intlinijaform was then
resumed. • • .- i - •
C. H. Farr, of Illinois, said the 'Repub
lican and Democratic parties were dead.
New issues were wanted. It, was use
lea to ask either party for assistance.
Rev. Mr. Dickson,'of Illinois, was for
a new party. If he could go back to his
county and say to the people there that a
great 'National Temperane party was
ready to light for the cause, he could get
many recruits.
Dr. Rosa said the parties are possessed I
of whisky devils, but they must be die
turbed. God ham' decreed it, and the
People accept the 'decree. This is a Na
timid Temperance Convention; it is the
advance guard. The people are coming.
It is God's party, and the people are de- '
Glaring their allegiance to-night.
Judge Gooking, of Illinois, moved to
amend the third plank by inserting after
the word "In-as-much," the words "A
very large number of those_composing,"
and striking out "sever our connections
' with those political parties." He consid
ered that It was wrong for them , to cast
stigmas on the Republican party, after all
it had done in Massachusetta for temper
ance. He proposed to go to the parties
and say to them, "You have got to give
us „prohibition ; if you give us men
pledgedto prohibition, we will vote for
you; if not, not." '
Mr. Ransom was opposed to the amend
ment. The- reason that they should
leave the old parties was that both Ig
nored the vital question of Tempeerance.
vote was taken on Judge Geokings
Intendment, and it was lost.
The third resolutioo, as reported by
the Oimmittee, was then adopted with
one dissenting voice.
Mr. Freneh, of Massachusetts,offered a
resolution that the temperance mon of
each State and territory will not be com
milted by any actlon , of this convention,
to organize (hada political parties in
of er localities, until in their judgment
went the interests of the temperance
cause will be better promoted thereby.
Mr. Bless, of-'lllinois, offered a substi
tute to the-fourth resolution, that• having
declared that all persona have . a right to
ne .protectiid -in person and property
against the liquor traffic, they hold that
the means to secure that protection
Is equally right, therefore suffrage
should be impartial, without regard to
nationality, color or color. •
- The amendment, after debate, was lost
and the resolution passed. • -
The fifth . el:minden passed unani
mously. , _ ,-.. .
The Secretary offered the following
resolutioa, which was, adopted:
Resolved, Tat while we recognize the
good- providence of Almighty . God in
supervising the interest of this nation
from its establishment to the present
time, we would not, in organizing our
party fbr the legal prohibition of the
liquor traffic, forget that our reliance-for
ultimate success mutt be upon the 0038
Omnipotent arm.
The preamble was adopted and the
whole platform then adopted by a ri ing
vote with three oheera and a tiger.
Hon. Gerritt Smith,presented and read
a long address which he had prepared.
AA . half dozen or more module were
made to strikn'eut of Mr. Smith's ad
dress certain expressions which were
deemed offensive or not in good taste.
'The addreeamas finally recommitted to
