Two Extremes.
BY JOE, a JERSEY MOTE.
EGOTISM
I, Joseph Mount, alius “ Joe, the Jersey
Mule,” by which alias I am known the world
over, expect to-morrow or the day after, to
locomote over valley and mount, a distance
of—mark the figures —l6s miles, upon a
mission of love. Now that Lillie, the proud
beauty, is mine in my own rigb', what care
I for the rest of mankind ! Lizzie, I repent,
is mine, and, remember ye, nobody else’s.
She has spurned many men, but She has lost
her heart to me in spite of her efforts to the
contrary; chuckle, my fiiends. For any
girls to cut me. believe me, it is out of the
question. But considering that she has re
jected many men before me, the wonder is
she could not treat me so. 1 simply wrote to
her. She, even she who is known all over
the place to have turned her back to quite a
crowd of suitors, answered my letter; no, not
tny letter bpl note, in less than nn lime.
After all her resistance to the shafts of Cupid
id other quarters, she fell heels over head in
love at the sight of mv hand-writing. 1 love
her of course. Does she love me? Quite
ardently, I tell you. I will make her my
wife in two years, should nothing turn up to
interrupt the consummation of our much
wished for happiness, Mrs. Mount she will
then be ; as such she will, as per custom, he
introduced to friends and strangers. 1 wilt
be known, living or dead, as the husband of
Lizzie. Oh, the thought is pleasing! She

Worth winning
MODESTY
Good morning, friend F.xpect in a day
or two to see a beloved lady, at a distance.
She may be, or may nol be pretty, but she
is sensible. Out of many suitors she has
been pleased to select one who humbly hopes
that he will give her no cause to repent her
choice. She will be married in two years
unless something will intervene to disappoint
her.
In the chapter on “ Egotism,” it will be
seen, the words by which the writer magni
fies himself, I, me, my and mine, occur in
each sentence; showing the enormous size of
the organ of self-esteem; while the chapter
on “ Modesty" is entirely free from egotism,
Ihtis indicating the want of proper self-esteem.
In. this case egotism and modesty run into
extremes from want of proper discipline.
An Essay.
Delivered before Cowanegque Lodge, No. 31, 1. O.of
G. T., at Nelson, Tioga county, I'enn'a.
DY MISS I). C. S.
My Fiiiesds: —You are now listening to
one who has never before said anything, in
your presence, in favor of lots noble institu
tion.- I say this is a noble institution, for in
deed it ip, ond so is any Other that is striving
to defeat intemperance. VVe have here or
ganized a Lodge of Good Templars, for the
purpose of inducing many of our friends,
who are in the habit of visiting the bar-rooms
and taking a social glass together, to forsake
that ruinous practice. And among the many
plana and schemes that have been adduced,
what one will be more successful in staying
the tide of intemperance, than this, our Lodge
of Good Templars, if only conducted rightly.
And was not that a wise resolution, when
this little band resolved they would counte
nance intemperance no longer. But brothers
and sisters let not only (fug be our aim. May
we also see the need of an association in Which
unity may be one of our all-pervading princi
ples;’ and let such an influence be here ex
erted as will tend to elevajo in our associa
tions all that is enobling and exalting, both
in influence and character. Let it also tend,
to imbue each and every one of us with high
er and nobler thoughts, as to what we may
do for the amelioration of mankind. We
hop| rtte have here ladies and gentlemen, both
of svhpm do unitedlly extend theif'infiuence
against this vile king, who is reducing so
largo a portion ofcha human race to extreme
ppve'rty and ( degradation. Yes, and liebas

heal with.anguish and despair; and many a
fond parent to All.a drunkard’s grave; and '
has sent the arrow of keen remorse from.his
triumphant bow, which has sunk deep into
the youthful heart, and caused it to bleed and
did, without one kind look or gentle hand to
smooth youth's dying pillow.
Now sisters, is not hero a work for us to
do ? Here the just and equal rights of wo
man prevail to some extent, and- now is our
time to arise and claim those rights, and ad

SELECT MISCELLANY.
Effects of the Maine Law lu
Maine.
The alms-house of Portland was built when
the city combined about ten thousand inhabi
tants, and at twenty-three thousand, it was
densely crowded. The authorities were con
sidering the erection of a new one, to cost
not loss than fifty thousand dollars. But af
ter the Maine Law had been in operation a
few monibs only, ranges of apartments were
empty there ; and the establishment as it now
stands will bo sulficent, under a vigorous en
forcement of the Maine Law, until the city
shall contain one hundred thousand inhabi
tants.
An anecdote or two will iilusi rale the actual
effects of the law upon the grog-shops and
upon intemperance. Within four months af
ter the enactment of the law, a Portland gen
tleman introduced to the Mayor a brother of
his,-who had arrived in the city the evening
before. He bad come to attend to a law suit,
and had taken with him a witness who was a
very intemperate man. He feared his wit
ness would become inloxcated and remain so,
and that he would fail in his suite in conso
quenre.
When the oers slopped at seven o’clock,
(he witness gave him the slip and was off.
The gentleman wailed anxiously for him at
the hotel until twelve o’clock at night, when
he came there perfectly sober. The gentle
man expressed Ip him his astonishment and
delight, when he replied“ Well, to tell
you the truth, I have travelled more'n five
miles, and could not get a drop.” And there
he was a sober man in spile of himself—the
grog shops were cKlorminalcd.
But it may he said that strangers would not
be likely to (inti the secret grog shops, of which
there were some yet lingering in dark places
and deep cellars, but that intemperate citizens
could easily procure from them the means of
intoxication. Great numbers of intemperate
men .were reformed, and every Portland man
must hove been cognizant of some cases of
ibis. There was a man living in our imme
dia'e neighborhood, who was well known as
a very intemperate man. We inquired one
day of an acquaintance who knew him, what
had become of him, as he had not been seen
(or some weeks. The gentleman laughed
when the inquiry was made, and said that
Thompson had been boasting lhal 11 he could
always get liquor enough, and if ins grog
should be stopped, it would be pretty dry limes
in Portland, he guessed.” But about a fort-
night before, Thompson was in his shop, will)
his face blenched nut like other people’s and
he said :—“ Ah, Thompson ! what's 'he mai
ler, Iha’ yon have changed countenance so
much!” “ Oh,” said he 11 1 find it such a
darned bother to get it, i’ll give it up.” And
he also was reformed.
Only two weeks a»o, in one of'our princi
pal streets, we were slopped by a man whom
we knew perfectly well ns a skillful median-
I ie, who had been very intemperate. He com
menced immediately speaking of his offers
and of bis business. We asked where he
lived. " Step here,” said he, “ and I’ll show
you.” Moving off a rod or two he poinmd
out a nice white house with green blinds—
and, with pride in his look, he added,* 1 it's
mine, and all paid for, and two house lots also
by the side of it; and the old woman has
three hundred dollars in caah| in the house
besides—all my earnings. Three years ago.
1 hadn’t a cent in the and here l)is
emotions choked him, that he could not finish
the sentence. He had been a miserable drun
kard, squandering all his earnings at the
shops of those who turned his '* circumstan
ces to a profitable account but now he was
I a respectable man and a good citizen.
At the time of Iho enactment of the Maine
Law, Ihe number of open rum shops in Port
land was esiimntedj to bo from three to four
Jhundredj now, Ihdfe is not one.- There is
not a shop or placb ia the city where a re.
spectable stranger can go and call Torn glass
of liquor, and gel it. The keepers of these
cret rum shops have a few well known cus.
lathers, but no stranger is admitted, except
under the patronage of an habitue. These
shops contain but small quantities of liquors,,
and-are fitted up with an apparatus, which,
on touching a spring, will smash the bottles
containing them, that they may not be seized
by the police.
Liquors introduced into' the city are dis
guised by being enclosed in boxes or flour
barrels and in comparatively small quantities,
.that they may,escape the noticenf the police.
(■But a short lime ago, two police officers were
walking in the Street behind an Irishman who
dtad a flour barrel on a hand-sled; (hey soon
overlook filing when he turned around, and
seeing them, exclaimed, “tjehl” and fled,
leaving ihe sled and its load. On examina
tion, the ofticofg found lhe barrel to odniain a
ten gallon keg of liquor, and carried it off to
the lock-up. .
Formerly, liquor; were brought to this,'city
by the vessel lends an sold pi auction. There
were many dealers here who sold immense
quantities at wholesale, and in addition, there

measurably less timn il .was before llto enact
men! of the Maine Law. - . , .
■ But we wish to add a few words on the ef
fect of the Maine Law upon the business in
terests'of the'§ta\e, and so fat as it shall be
adopted by the Sutina. upon those of the. na
tion. It was estimated that the|. people of
Maine spout at least $!) t OOO,OOO annually for
strong drinks, involving a lqss- directly and
indirectly of wasted lime, misdirected indus
try, and in' other ways, of at least 82,000,
DUO more making an annual loss to the Slate
of'B-1,000,000. The thorough execution of
the Maine Law, and the annihilation of the
liquor traffic, would immediately result in the
saving of this immense sum. Being no lon
ger squandered upon the means of intoxica
tion, it would he directed into legitimate chan
nels of trade, and would be expendedfor food,
raiment, shelter and other necessaries nod
comforts of life, so far as they should be nee
ded ; and the balance would be added to the
annual accumulating wealth of the State, and
trade and manufactures would be stimulated
to an extent of which we.can have but a very
inadequate conception : while poverty, pau
perism and crime would be almost unknown
among us.
The same result would follow the trade,
commerce and manufactures of the nation
from the suppression of the liquor traffic in
all our borders. The annual cost to the nation
in each, of the liquor traffic, cannot' be less
than §150,000,001), involving an additional
loss, directly and indirectly, of 8150,000,
000 more—making in nil, a vast aggregation
of 5)300,000,000, which is a dead loss to the
nali6n, no valuable return whatever being de
rived from il. If the liquor traffic should be
suppressed, this great sum would at once be
employed in promoting the comfort of the
people, and in augmenting the wealthy, power
and resources of the nation, instead of leaving
no other result, as at present, than poverty,
paumperism, degradation and crime.
