'Ittttmpemte persons are particularly to all acute diseases, as Inflam- ';J0|Hfoi7 complaints and fevers of every HHilNption. It is presumed that way practising physician and every person of observation can bear a melancholy testi­ mony to the truth of this assertion. Who has not seen the bloom of youth, the vigor of manhood, or even the maturity of age, cat off by the frightful train of diseases, whose seeds and nourishment are derived from the intoxicating cup ? How -many widows, and orphans, and parents, and brothers, and sisters, now mourn the loss of their relatives, who but lor the poisonous beverage, might hav» been the guardians of youth, the support of female virtue, the ornaments of the family circle, the props of declining age, and the pillars of society. The excessive use of ardent spirits is one of the darkest shades in the pros­ pects of our rising Republic, and unless the wisdom of government or the return­ ing reason of individuals arrests the progress of this destructive pestilence, an Indelible stain must be fixed upon our national character. viz.: A fOnrtnwerl from P%rM Receipts dor nerforrael I «, I8W, and 94ft TO •Oft W M6 7S i daring half year for services ned ia naif year ending Deo j and heretofore reported a* net received Tetal receipts Sheriffs salary fo* half year Total receiptsaboye ....
