(7. %4N tk» Editor claims no pert or credit for tlieeMM.] Facte Worthy of Notice ' It is a fact, that nine-tenths of the in mates of our poor houses were brought there directly or indirectly by the use of Intoxicating liquors. It is a fact, that three-fourths of all the aonvicts in our state prisons were hard drinkers previous to the commission of the crimes for which they are now im prisoned. . It is a fact, that the greatest sufferers from disease, and those maladies are the most difficult to cure, are those who are Addicted to the use of ardent spirits. It is a fact, that of all who commit suicide in th's country, ninety-nine one- ' hundredths are the immediate or remote Victims of spirituous liquors. ^ It is a fact, that all families where the Children are dirty, half-naked and ill-fed; the room filthy and in disorder, the hus band cross, discontented and peevish; «E<1 the wives slatterns, ill-tempered and .Quarrelsome, one, if not both, the parents are drinkers of ardent spirits. It is a fact, that those who least fre quently attend the worship of God in the Sanctuary, most of those who by their oaths, blasphemies and horrible execra tions shock the ears of modem people, •re spirit drinkers. ^ It is a fact, that men who are strictly temperate themselves, are obliged to gwbmit to increased taxation, and to the cost incurred in the support of paupers, said the prosecution of criminals, created mainly by the existence of the liquor traffic. '/ . :ji It is a fact, that if inebriate asylums are erected and supported, their main tenance will depend on the means of the •ober and moral portion of the commu nity, while the grogshops will continue to manufacture inmates to be thus taken care of.
