MEssRs. EDIToRs: deem it duty incum-
bent on some friend of the Temperance cause,
present at each of our various Temperance
meetings, to notify you Of the proceedings in
some concise form of their own. or in sue h
a way as you may be able, from statement OF
the facts, to impart the pleasing knowledge to
others.


In view of the above, beg leave to state,
that there was most interesting Temperance
meeting on the 9th inst. at Mr.. Marbury's
grounds, across the Navy Yard bridge, on the
site where the Sabbath school children held
their 4th July celebration; the seats, &c. still
remaining, as it is designed they shall during
the summer, for the accommodation of the
public. IT'S delightfully."- situated in a shady
grove, with the advantage of spring of ex-
cellent water close at hand. There were seven
signers obtained to the pledge, one of whom,
it was remarked, amply repaid the laborers in
this good work, for their exertions on that oc.
casion at least. May this newly acquired
brother enjoy the full fruilion of those bless
ings, which adherence TO the pledge is sure to
bring along with it. The ladies in this Sec
ton, much to their credit be it spoken, turn out
strong, and as natural consequence the gen.
tlemen are not slow; SO that here, as it is
everywhere when female influence is exer.
cised, an impulse will be given which nothing
can withstand. Go on and prosper, say we.
GAS you sow so shall you reap" and the re-
ward will be that your husbands will all be
gooG, as they ought to be, and the children
such as will honor their parents.
