FRIENDS OF TEMPERANCE! On reading the sllbjoined extract from the speech of the Attorney ,enerai off tt 2 United States. the following questions arose in my mind

 l. Is t not exceedingly important that some effort be made to check the progress of latemperuacs n thhis p3ace?

 2 Cannot something be done towards etIectng this object

 .. respect tc tI,e fasi of these questions, 3 it is presumed there can be but one opinion among all who are noi destitute q! moral senslbility.

 In answer to the second, though there be some discouraging circumstances, It is be- lieyed that no Invincible barrier exists. It would be uncilafitaDle and ungenerous to doubt that numbers among us possess both patriotism and moral principle sufficient to assume position of resistance against the advances ol. this giant Destroyer cf the pro- per,y, the happiness, and the lives of our ieiiow-citizeIis.

 Young men you are our hope. On you depends the future destiny of our iand.- Are you wiling to see our prospects blight ru un1 ~.ar liherfies sIest " .rust you are not. There Is then ;,r, enemy ::n yeu midst formidable in lis power, and mos destructive in his rayages. Will you com. bine for his overthrowl Read tie follow. ing extract from Mir. Buffers speech--de. eide and act, and future generations vii call you blessed.

 Let this subject be freely discussed. I any are in jacor of Intemperance, let then support their cause by rational arguments J they can.

 Let it be remembered that it IS the lem. psrate, we wish to unite in Temperance So. cietes-not the iatempefate. q But why should we join Temperance Society since we are already tetnperate?" Ans. Nha would have been fife present condition 0 @the mom intemperate had they joined Tenn perance Societies, and continued honora ble members!

 There will presently be an opportunit1 for acting in regard to this subject.

 Respectfully,
