The question of the first importance. now is---
\Vill the friends of Temperance defer the pros-
ecution of the rum seller under the present li-
cense law, and rely upon the eflicacy of moral
sunsion, or will they insist that the penalties of
law shall be promptly and unflincliingly enforced?
The law of last year, it was asserted wzis a
Wliig law; the present, it cannot be denied,
then, is a loco foco law, and from this View Of
the case, we gather, that it is equally the opin-
ion_of whigs and locofocos, that runiselling must
be restrained by law .Allowing this to be the case.
which course should be taken---to disregard the
lesislative-action ofbotli parties, and the convic-
tions ofa large majority of the citizens of this
state, and rely solely for the suppression of the
evils of intemperaiice, upon moral suasion, or in
obedience to law, and the voice of the people,
to enter upon the work of suppression, by means
of the pains and penalties which the legislature
have imposed?
the course taken by the last legislature, in tliei
;pi-oduced general joy in England.
face of previous experience, that the principle
of legal suasion, should be thoroughly tested.
Let the public mind become settled upon the?
utility and expediency of such laws, and wlictli-l
er the cause of tcmpcraiice can be prouioted byl
their existence and approbation. If it shall ap-
pear that they are a liindrancc—au obstacle in.
l
the way of this needful reform, (which a short:
,imo will sliow,) then by common consent, let:
the statue book be clea red of every such uselessg
and pernicious ciiactm out. But if on the other’
hand, their operation shall be found wholesome '
and siilutary, and they thereby continue to re-,
ceive the sanction of those who_ have the public?
weal at heart-——then we say, let us like good cit-
izens, give our concurrence to such provisions?

wliolescnic and necessary.
Prosecutions lime commenced in this place,
and also in Stamford, and we hear that it is the
determination here, to follow on, till law shall
have its perfect work,till the effect shall be fairly
arid faithfully presented,
A fine of $10 was im posed on John Burrall, on
Saturday last, from which an appeal was taken.
In connection with the article we published
last week on the subject of the lVc.s.lport ccl€l)ra-
tion, we stated that if the representation then
given. was claimed to be erroneous, we would
cheerfully publish a correction, or counter state-
ment from the aggreived party. “"0 were call-
ed upon last week by a gentleman interested,
wlie said that. another statement would be fur-
nished us. On Monday morning, we received
from the same gentleman, the following note,
which though probably not intended as such a
statement, or designed for publication, contains
as full a conlraclictz'.on as any thing we could write
in a whole column. \Ve therefore give his own
declarations, in his own language. It is our
opinion that any thing furtlier on this subject
from any quarter would be supeferogatory. The
whole matter, therefore may be considered as
dismissed.
The writer of the note being something of a
wag, we conclude that his allusion to “the fine”
ls intended as a good-natured quiz.

Ma. R1-".1-zn, Dear Sir :-——\Ve think that you
are bound to contradict the piece which you
published last week, as there is not one word of
truth in the statement. VVe do not wish to
make Ilzejinc any greater. I will assure you
that eight out of ten of the Society were in fa-

Awrui. CON}-‘LAGRATIO.\' IN NA.\"i'UcKi;'r.—
A most calamitous fire broke out in the town of
Nantucket on Monday night the 13th which laid
one third of the town in ruins. The flames
having obtained the ascendancy, human efforts
seemed powerless in arresting their destructive
progress. The scene of desolation both at the
time, and since the fire, beggars description.—-
Between 3aud 4 hundred buildings are destroyed
including the businesss portions of the place.
N umerouszdwellings are also burnt, and hundreds
of families are rendered houseless besides being
stripped of their all. Nolives fortunately, we re
lost, notwithstanding several buildings were
blown up in order to check the progress of the
fire.
An appeal has been made by the Selectmen of
the town for assistance, as many are likely to
suffer for the actual necessaries of life. Pro-
visions and groceries, to "a great extent have
fallen a prey to the general destruction.
The county records were fortunately saved.

It is a most fortunate, perhaps we should say
a most Providential circumstance, that the long
pending dispute about Oregon, was,in effect dis-
posed of before the new Administration came
into power. Not that we have any reason to
question their general good feeling _ towards this
country, but at best a change of Ministry would
have created delay, and under no Administra-
tion could we expect better treatment than_ that
which we have received at the hands of Sir R.
Peel and the Earl ot Aberdeen. Our country
owes them a debt of gratitude which it will not

Fanu'l_1/ IlIccling.—'I‘lie descendants of the
late Isaac Jennings, deceased, had a family‘
meeting in this place during last week. which is
the first, we understand, enjoyed by them
in 30 years. The whole number present. was
55 souls, as follows—Cliildren and Cliildren-in-

there are 11, (no deaths having occurred among
tliom,) ranging from 31 to .31; of the graiid-cliil-
dreii 11 are dead—t.he whole number having
been 69 ; and of the great-grand children there
are '7. A supperand religious services were had
on the accasion, and the scene was one of deep

Puritan settlers of the land. It also partakes

NEVV YORK, July 18, 1846.
Dear Sir : Considei'able anxiety is manifest-
ed by business men here as to the fate of the
Tariff bill in the Senate. That the vote will be
close, no one doubts, and the general opinion
seems to be that the casting vote will devolve on
the Vice President. Ifsucli should be the case,
the bill before the Senate will undoubtedly pass.
Mr. Dallas is a strict party man. He owes his
present position to southern free-traders. He
has his eye upon the succession. He must
therefore be obedient to his masters. He must.
obey the mandates of the slaveocracy now dis-
pensing the patronage of the government, and
giving laws to the nation, or his politicaldooin
is sealed. The slave power is new supreme in
this nation, and whoever hopes to gain any oflice
of honor or eniolument, must implicitly obey its
behests.
Is it not wonderful that the interests of the
North cgui with impunity be tliust trifled with ?
Here is a measure proposed, which will injuri-
ously affect every free laborer of the North and
East. It will throw thousands out ofemploy-
meet, or reduce their wages to the low rate re-

titions are slighted. The petitioners for giving

great national question.
The speech of Senator Niles was quite un-
expected, and has given hope that the iiieasuro
will be defeated. So did the speech of Brink-
erlioff. And what. greater reason have we to
suppose that Mr. Niles will vote in accordance
with the principles of his speech than we had
that l’;rinckerliofl' would ? The truth is, Sona-
tor Niles is a L0c0foc0“afte1' the strictestscct.”
Ile has always voted with his party. He has
always wore the collar snbmissively. IIe has
always obeyed his masters. And it is confes-
sedly a liard task to learn an old dog new tricks.
A man who trampled the constitutioii under his
feet by voting for the annexation of Texas. and
that too in opposition to the wishes oftwo-thirds
of his constituents, will not scruploto support
any measure proposed by his party. I hope he
may vote right, mid feel the consciousness of
having given one honest veto duriizg his senato-
rial carecr, but Igrcatly fear that he will never
know the blessedness of that feeling.

But this is not niuclilike a letter. And yet how
can one be silent when he sees the great interests of
the North thus trifled with by Southern deuiagogncs
and Northern “dough faces.” A day ofrclributiou
will surely come.
The news by the Cambria was received by “the
liglitniug mail” last night. It is ofsomc importance.
The Peel Cabinet have resigned. The \"Vliigs with
Lord John Russell at their head, are now in power.
Lord Palmerstoii is Secretary for the Foreign De-
partnient. It is fortunate that the Oregon question
is closed. He is a lint licadcrl politician and by no
means friendly to the United States I see that lllc
Cauley, the celebrated reviewer, is a meniber of the
Cabinet. Another election will probably follow this
change ofthe Government, as the \Vhigs are in a
small minority. It is a singular fact that the Tories
in linglaurl have always been more liiendly towards
our Govermiient than the Whigs, though the latter.
theoretically are very good democrats. \Ve could
notsettle the Nnrtli Eastern boundary question while
the \Vliigs were in power there. but the monicnt a
Tory Caliiiiet was formed, the difficulty was adjus-

of the potatoes were all dying. It is strange that

The schooner had a cargo of plaster, lath,
and fish, consigned to St_urges 8:. Co.
A gentleman who \vas passenger in

was dreadful, and the more because no
captain could be found, not any one who
would assume responsibility. Captain
