Since the lirsi of last Jaauaiy, il has! occasioned no less than tilty lioinocides within the limits our State, and almost in numerable assaults nilh intent to kill, hap jiily unsuccessful. 0. It is the fruitful cause of immor ality, irrcligion, profanity, ubscei.hy, bins- ldiomy, coiitenitit of law, contemiit of nil tho proprieties, amenities anil tho de cencies of life ; and of every evil wold nml work. 7. It costs the State, eighty millions of dollars annually. 8. Il destroys tho lives of not less than fifteen thousand of otir citizens, every 12 months. Consider these principles, universally en ceded its true : 1. Tho interests of health are superior to those of property. 'The health of tin people is tho supreme law.' 2. Tho interests of morality oy-r-ri I. those of property, 3. Tho personal security of tins ci'u.-n from assault and outrage, is of inoiv conse quence than the rights of property, 4. I be interests ot th" man; nnHtn.it bo sactifieed to thoso of the jw. 5. The right of tho people .to protect themselves, through tho institutions of go em.'iiont, is inherent and indefeasible; and government, in the very nature of the case, is clothed nilh all the powers requisite to the accomplishment of this end, tho pro tection of the people. From the fao's and principles thus sta ted, the following inferences are unavoid able : ' 1. The liquor faffifi i9 prac'ically hos lilo to all the interest, of soci' ty which the civil power is ordniin d to protect. 2. The suppression of that traffic is clearly demanded by the purpose for which government was ordained, and is therefore clearly within the limit of its constitutional powers. 8. The traffic, and not its suppression, 5 unconstitutional, and the government that neglects to prohibit it, is either ignorant of its obligations, or faithless to its trust. The constitutionality of prohibition, is further proved 1. By the fact that for twenty years past, it has been recoiiized in the legisla lionof the General Government. See Laws of the U. S. for 1834, Vol. IX, page 133. 2. The Supreme Court of the Luited States, in full Bencti, has declared it so, with no dissenting vo;e. Chief Jusiice Ta ney says : 'If any State deems ihe retail and inter nal traffic in ardent spirits, injurious to its citizens, and calculated to produce idleness, vice or debauchery, I see nothing in the Constitution of the United States tt prevent it from regulating or restraining the traffic, or from prohibiting it altogether, if it thinks proper.

Hon is decided in favor of the must efficient tool for advancing these selfish interests. T But to the man who bos a proper sense of the du ties and resionsibditicathat devolve upon him, us a citizen, the question is one of gravo import, lie feels that those who force power into the hands of any one, are resjionsible for its use, and that there is a retributive Power above thut will visit a people far the injustice of thoso whom they have placed innulhority. In agovcrnment,such as ours, where each individual has a Voice in the election of its ru lers, and an influence in the making nnd adminis terlng of its laws, we are individually accountable for its acts, and participants of its guilt. Though but one of many, who are involved iu the guilt, we aro none the less responsible. C! uilt cannot be di vided among the perpetrators of a crime, but each one is as culpable as if ho were the only one con cerned. ' How important is it, then, that in the choosing of men to enact and administer our laws, we should select those in whom, from their moral integrity nnd decision of character, we can have confidence; men whom we know to be governed by the eternal principle of justice who acknowledge themselves to be not only obligated by the will of their constit uents, but also by that "lrghcr law," with which no human legislation can conflict, and be just. It is our duty to sustain such men for office; but to none o hers can we safely confide the destinies of our country. When we make theso principles the criterion by which we judge the fitness of a can didate, wc need not long hesitate, in ordinary ca ses, for whom we should vote. The puili of duly is always plain, and easily distinguished.

The clergyman, the deacon, nml physician, s'runi'e as il may now nppear, all favored it. One man only spoke against it because of the mischief it did. The question was ah iut to be put, when, all at once, there arose from one corner of the room, a miserable female. She was thinly clad, ami her appearnxce indicated I lie utmost wretchedness, snd that her mortal career was almost closed. After a moment of silence, snd sll eyes being fixed upon her, she stretched her attenuated body to its-utmost height, and then her long arms to their greatest length, and raising her voice lo a shrill pitch, she called lo all to look upon her.

The having in possession of any of the prohibited game, is to be deemed prima facie evidence Ihal the possessor has violuted the law, and he is subject n the penally.
