Temperance vs. Cholera.
~ . 1m ounce of prevention defter than a pound
of cure." Anything for the good of humanity
tif,ver come a miss, Anything which will
;Ala./ the Miseries 21 our common Wilily, or
preserve the lives of the perishing, should be
hailed With gladness. A man's IR is every
thing to him in this world. Hence it was that
Temperance was so applauded a few years ago;.,
hence those meetings, and speeches, and pledges,
mil processions, and banners, end soul inspiring
songs. Where are they !!! It may be well
to roust the word Temperance, as it seems to
be forgotten. The fragrance of its name is still
sweet like the memories of joys and days long
since passed away. In times of misfortnne and
misery, we are glad to return and cling to for
saken friends. And a friend in need is a friend
indeed. That Temperance is such a friend,
need not be proved. Reference may be had to
the to" of papers, to the speeches and affirma
tions, the solemn declarations and acknowledg
ments, &c., &c., of the period of the Tempe•
ranee Revolution. Let conscience also have
fell play and a perfect work ; and we will ima
gine everything said. Of the general influence
of ardent spirita on the whole system of man,
nothing need be said. Let us come to the point
in hand ; a point of no little interest at the pre-
~ent writing, viz "Ardent spirits the friend
and promoter of Cholera," or " Temperance
the fo and preventive of Cholera." Without
I.thy let us pass on to the faits.
Dr. Bum ,on,' of Albany, who spent some
time in "d:ontreal, Canada, during the prevalence
of the cholera in 1832, wrote as follows
" Cholera has stood up here as it has every
where, the advocate of Temperance.. It has
ploaded most eloquently, and with tremendous
effect. The disease has searched out the haunt
of the drunkard, and has seldom left it without
',axing away its victim. Even moderate drink
., have been but little better off. Ardent
, is in any sliapoi and in any quantity have
cu Vghly detrimental. Some temperate men
-orted to them during the prevalence of the
malady as a preventive, or to remove the feel
ings of uneasiness about the stomach, or for the
purpose of drowning their apprehensions, but
they did it at their peril. Intemperance of any
kind, but particularly in the use of distilled
liquors, has been a more productive cause of
Cholera, than all others. Drunkards and tip
plers have been sought out with such unerring
certainty, as to show that the arrows of death
Mice not been dealt out without discrimination,
There seems to be a natural affinity between
Cholera and ardent spirits !" Dr. Rhinelander
who was deputed from New York, to visit Ca
nada, at the some time, says We may ask,
who are the victims of this disease 7 I answer,
the intemperate it invariably cuts off." A
Montreal paper stated, after twelve hundred in
that city had been attacked, that not a drunkard
attacked with the disease had recovered; and
that almost all the victims were at least mode
rate drinkers. In Paris, the thirty thousand
who died of that disease, were, with few ex
ceptions, these who drank freely intoxicating
tiquor. Nine-tenths of those who died in Po•
hind, were stated to be of the same class. In
St. Petersburg, and Moscow, in Russia, the
average number of deaths recorded in the bills
of mortality during the prevalence of Cholera,
when the p‘mple abstained from the use of bran-
thr was no greater than when they used it daring
the ordinary months of health : brandy drinking
and attendant dissipation may have killed as
many, in the same time an the Cholera. The
London Morning Herald, after stating that the
disease fastened its deadly grasp upon that class
of turn, added "The same preference for the
intemperate and uncleanly has characterized the
Cholera everywhere. Intemperance is a quali-
,ation which it never overlooks. Often has
it passed harmless over a wide population of
temperate country people, and poured down as
an overwhelming scourge, upon the drunkards
of some distant town." Rarnmohun Fingee, the
lemons Indian doctor, states with regard to
- India, (where the Cholera has most prevuiled,)
"People who do not take opium or spirits do
not take the disease, even when they are with
those who have it."
Dr. Sewall, or Washington, D. C.. in a letter
from New York, stated, that, of two hundred
and four cases in the Park Hospital, there were
only sl:z temperate persons.; and that they had
all recovered, while, of the others one hundred
and twenty-two, when he wrote, had died; and
that the facts were similar in all the other hos
pitals." Sash awe some of the facts from the
collection on The subject by Rev. J. Edwards,
D. D. The conclusion of The whole matter is,
let dram.selling and dram-drinking be suspended
indefinitely, or rather eternally 1
Father Mathew
The New York papers, having ex
hausted every other subject relative to
Father Mathew, are now busy in discus
sing his pedigrre. They say he is actu
ally descended ;rein "Gwathwead, Xing
of Cardigan, in a direct line, from whom
was descended the great standard bear
er of King Edward the Fourth, Sir Da
vid Mathew, whose monument is in
Lan luo Cathedral, of about the date of
1530." The grand-son of Sir William
Mathew was high Sheriff' of the county
of Glumngan and heir of the estates of
Lat.daff and Aradyr in 1592 ; thereon
one of his sons, George, went to Ireland
in 1610, where he married the widow
of Lord Thurles, mother of the first great
Duke of Ormond. We understand " that
General Taylor has written him a letter
of invitatiou to the White House, and
that it has been accepted. The Gen.
eral is au ardent admirer of the Apostle
of Temperance.

The undersigned Committee of this Board
take pleasure in commending the Institution to
the confidence of the public and the patronage
of parents who would secure for their daughters
the advantages of a thorough and liberal edu
cation. •
The Chambersburg Female Seminary has
long occupied an elevated position in the public
estimation as a school of uncommon merit. It
has contributed in no small degree to elevate the
standard of female education in our country, to
deepen and extend the conviction of its import
ance; and to furnish incontestable proof of the
advantages which such a system, properly con
ducted, in destined to confer on a community.
Such evidence has been amply furnished in the
history of Vs Institution. It has been emi
nntly successful in training the minds and dis
ciplining the affections of not a few who are
now filling with dignity responsible stations in
the domestic andiociel circles of life, and who
are exerting an MI dent. influence on the well
being of society.
Of the young Ladies who have charge of the
Institution, the Committee deem it needless to
speak in the way of commendation. Their
character, and qualifications as teachers, are of
the highest order. We can therefore, safely say
to parents who wish tp place their daughters at
Boarding School, that this is ap Institution to
which they may send them with entire confi
dence that they will be watched over with ma
ternal care and furnished with every requisite
felicity for receiving an accomplished Christian
education.

Kr THE SENTIMENT IMPLIED
in the shove exclamation is on no sul ject more
fully exemplified than on that of health; 13 ut
few give it a single thought. and fewer still re
flect upon it with the observation and good sense
which matters of minor consequence receive.
As observation machos the tact that Dr. Osgood's
India Chalagegue is a never failing remedy in
Fever and Ague, good sense would surely indi
cate its prompt and immediate ease. For sale by
the above maned agents.
