All laws that provide for any license to bo t given.fur t!„iu sale qf intoxicating drinks, as they\ protect and justify immoral, acts, must tend dis- tinctly to the corruption of public morals, and as all such laws have also?Sigrially failed to re- strain any of the evils of intomperance, they ought to bo immediately displaced from the atiit- .utobook of every enlightened, and virtuous peo- ple, by the enactment of just and equitable lasvs prohibiting entirely tlig sale of such drinks, that being the c;i'..;o of those evils which the license laws have vainly endeavored to regulate and re. strain. ' .. 7.' Every government fails to perforin one of its most important functions, which attempts to restrain crimo by punishment, and relieve pau- perism by imposing taxes for its support, and yet neglect to prohibit such a fruitful source of pauperism and crime as is the sale-of intoxica. ting drink*. 8. The evils of Intemperance at tlio present time in the State of New Yorlc are so ruinous to the happiness, health, morals and.lives of indi- viduals; so productive pf pauperism and crime and consequent taxation i and so subversive of 'truo religion and the best good of tho °wholo commrinity, tyiat their effectual prevention im- periously 'd'eqiands legislative interposition.- \9.hAs\All past-experience sufficiently demon- • -WATEBTOWN, iHUESIMLy,.

Atlength before Thanksgiving, a rockiiig^iair, in the newest and easiest style of twenty-five years ^tgp, entered tho front door; the precursor of a han Isomo set of furniture for the parlors. Ourniuther looked at it somewhat ungraciously, nnd drowned pur exclamations by hor silerice.—• At dinner, wlion our father appeared, «he threw himself into it, saying,\ Ah! Jane, this just what I want this minute. I am shookingty tired.\ . We looked at him, and there was a strange paleness about his mouth. \ Is it not easy J\ he asked, resting his head back, and looking into my mother's face as if her full coincidence of opin- ion wore only neededto eompletehis enjoyment. Sho smiled pleasantly, then pressed her hand up- on his Jucuhead. \I fear ypu are not well\ she said tenderly; \your head is very, eery hot.\— My father was not well; ho soon entered his I chamber* smd the next day, and neXt,7ind next I grow more sick.

To sit by her side, with myjittjcislate orp-.ctiire-book, was my chief deljght ^SDtrie- tirhes t threaded her needle, or cut off an Pad, or sowed on patch-work, thankful ftr the lHtlchelpa I might afford hor.

You see I have not forgot the technicalities of sowing, despite the love of the musty law books which line my office. <j_ Three weary 'weeks—weeks\ of nreHrtv and painful solicitude, arid faithful- devotion on my mother's: part, at the sick bed—but alas,, skill or medicine, or nursing, or prayer, availed nothing.
