ever, if any should repent, and wish abso-

may have a draught-it will hurt none-il
will benefit all.


ay- In our last we intimated our inten-
ton, provided certain number OF yearly
advertisers should be obtained, to publish
our paper daily, and to circulate i~o thou-
sand Gve hundred copies every day IN the
District, Independent of those mailed to sub
scrbers in the States. There is not busi-
ness man in this community, (unless sin
gularly blind to his own interest who, if
he would reflect moment, could fail to
perceive that such paper, as a cheap adj
vertising medium, would be Of incalculable
benefit to the business community, mde-
pendent of its utility in other respects. ne
are anxious that it should be daily paper
chiefly on account Of the extensive circu-
lation which it will obtain, and the increased
influence which it will exert in the cause of
temperance. The greater its circulation, the
more extended the field of its operations,
of course the greater will be its influence
in this, as in all other respects. We would
not hesitate moment, did our means allow
us, unaided, to take upon ourselves the re-
sponsibility, but would issue the paper at
once, trusting to the support which we have
no doubt it would receive from the business
and reading public. 1t has not been our
habit, heretofore, to get up failures. We
wish to see our way clear ere we undertake..
We have counted the cost; we want l2O
yearly advertisers, at $l5 per year. As
soon as these are obtained, we shall be call
right, and then we will go ahead." In our
vocabulary there is no such word as FAIL.

Cough, and the Rev. Thomas Spencer,
from England, were to speak at the Tre-
NOM Temple, Boston, on Wednesday eve
ming, at a temperance meeting. Cough, we
suppose, has been getting up steam during
his retirement from public life, and means to
create another excitement, if possible.
Where's the young man who asked him TO
drink soda water?-.N Y Herald.


Mr.. COUCH has spoken.
Mr. Cough took the rostrum, after Mr.
Spencer closed his remarks, amidst round
of applause. He waited until the notes of
Eioy had ceased, and then in his own hum
bic and winning manner commenced brief
address, in which he deplored his late fall,
confirmed his love for the temperance cause,
and protested his innocence in regard TO late
transactions. He stood not there as a Grim
inal but as MAN His health is yet quite
feeble; but we hope he will yet live to see
| the triumphof the cause he so much loves.
| Boston Daily SIN.


We second that hope, Mr.. Sun.


The .Nem York Herald is so used to
steaming it erery day in the week, Sundays
moi excepted, that, judging others by him
self, he supposes it impossible for man 10

minds are apt to think themselves of most
importance, and frequentlypla themselves
in situations in which theih diminutiveness
most conspcuously appearA Some men
possess the faculty of inruitiSe perception
in this respect Among these We rank Dan
iel OCynnel, who possesses his faculty
in so fine degree that it is onlypecessary
for him TO glance at gentleman'sCARD to
determine the calibre Of its owner,and he
, treats hem accordingly.
