.which we represent are_also understood. Our pledge ,
and our mode of operations are before the public.
. ,
The object of this address:is_ twofold. - It is first
asidmainly to call the attention of the friends of pub
1'
lc order, social happiness and domestic .peace, who
are not now pledged the -temperance. cause; toil=

has taken place iu public sentiment, and in all our.

then think that all
this has been eEfected by tub agency of these voluitti- -
ry associations. In view of this single consideration,
we feel that we can with confidence commend this
subject to the attention of the friends of man. '

•If so much has been , done by the little-effert which
'has been put forth ; what could not be effected in ten
years:to come, were the talent and the influence of the
iftuous part of our c . omnumity properly concentrat

could,—and surely we could not if we would,—that
our ultimate object is. to .rominvr•
the use of intoxicating liquors has pPoduced, together
with thciecauee. The time shall come when a drun
kard shall not be known in Cum'wriand county ; and
when lte:cleating drinks , shall neither be Manufac

whom this appeal is made. •
