VfXehedg, Thls conVenlion has been called
To me«R the emergency Rising from the vio-
Ippt,opppyitiontof The .Liquor , party lot said
i«slp’andtbyJlio;adoplion ol .suitable-measures
-lo'provant its repeal by the nexiLegisiature:
Therefore,
faiohed, That while as advocates ofiPro
hibition, we areas much os ever determined
‘tu>t 4o relax our efforts for the entire abolition
of ihe traffic in intoxicating liquors, 'we hail,
with filings of devout gratitude, the passage
of the ‘act to resirain the sale of intoxicating
liquors,’ not only because we are convinced
of the great benefits which must result from
its enforcement, but because we see in its
passage a pledge of our future and final tri
umph.
2. That the failure of the advocates of the
License System to secure under the most fa
vorable circumstances, Ihe voles of a major
ity of the voters of the State in itslavor, not
only justified the Legislature in taking action
upon this subject, but the result of the lute
popular vole imperiously demanded that some
radical change should be made in that system
at its late Session.
3, Thnl those members of the Legislature
who secured the passage of the late act not
only deserve the thanks of the friends of Pro
hibition’, but justice to them requires us to
sustain their law until it can be tested by its
results or repealed by the better one of en
tire Prohibition.
4. That both policy and principle combine
to ma|to it our duly to sustain this late act
seeing that it is prohibitory in its character,
inasmuch as it abolishes the solo of liquor
by the small and prohibits the existence of
all drinking houses.
5. That the titile of “jug law” so con
temptuously given to the late act by the ad
vocates of the license system, because it pro
hibits the sale in less measure than a quart,
applies with equal force to their own system,
as the sale by the quart has always been one
of Us prominent features.
6. That the well known fact that lhero_ is
less drinking in the country population than
in that of towns and cities, proves conclusive
ly that the evils of intemperance result prin
cipally from the sale of liquors in taverns
and drinking houses, and as like causes pro
duce like effects, it is equally conclusive proof
of the advantages which must result when
both classes of population are compelled
cither to drink at home or abandon the prac
tice.
7. Thai the wisdom and propriely of Ibis
(ale ac( is seen in (he Met that it prohibits
drinking houses of all descriptions, thereby
removing the greatest temptations to social
drinking, which is the most prolific cause of
the formation and cultivation of intemperate
habits.
• 8. That as this late act confers on us the
advantages of position, in that it gives us
something to defend at the present and leaves
us less to gain in the future, we will'not only
sustain this law, but under no circumstances
will we vote for any man lor the Legislature
who is favorable to its repeal, except for the
passage of one of entire Prohibition.
9. Thai should politicians fail to profit by
the experience of the past, we renew our
pledges to leach them in,the future, that no
patty.can,escape defeat, 'which either aban
don or oppose the principle of Prohibition.
10. That the beneficial tendencies of the
Prohibitory laws adopted by thirteen States
of this Union, are seen in the significant fact
that the more reputable class of liquor sellers
ore withdrawing from the business, leaving
the same mostly in the hands of the law and
profligate, of which, in this State, nearly
three-fourths are persons of foreign birth.
Rexabkabie Occbrhekce. —A circuit)-
stance of a somewhat extraordinary charac
ter occurred a short time since in one of our
flourishing (owns of (he middle counties. A
clergyman died, and his wife and daughters,
on (he third day after his decease, recollecting
that no likeness remained, it was agreed ere
the grave closed o’er him, that the body should
bn enshrowded a portrait taken. A young
lady pf some professional celebrity, was en
gaged 1 for Ihe lask. She with the assistance
of the attendant, took off the shroud and
placed the body'in the requisite posture; but
6lher duties requiring the artist’s attention,
(he sketch was deferred till noon. About 12
o’clock, at the foot of the bed, the lady com
menced an went thro'and hour’s work on
of death. At this stage of the
proceedings, by some unaccountable motion,
the bead of the deathlike figure fell on the
aittei daunted, the artist carefully
took 'ho head to. replace it when, lo ! the eyes
opened, and staring her full in the face, the
dead,inquired, “who ,afe yogi’’ The young
professional, without trepidation, took the
bandage from the head and rubbed his neck.
He immediately saw the shroud and laughed
immoderately. The artist, qujeljy called the
family ; their joy may be imagined, but can
not, bo described. That evening he who had
lain three days in his shroud, bemoaned by
mother and aisters with agonizing teare, glad
dened their hearts by taking his accustomed
place at the tea table, and at this moment is
making an excursion in North Wales.—

‘•Well, Mrs. Moody how are you this

“Oh, Mrs. H ,I am very unwell, I

“Blqss you, ma’anj,, don’t take on-so;
there’s three bottles left yet.”
