Prof. J. H. Carlisle on Prohlibitioni.
We take the folowing extract from
Prof. Carlisle's Address delivered to
the voters and citizens of the City of
Greenville, on Friday night hast, as re
ported to "The Daily News
TIe speaker began by saying that
tvo days ago, beforeC ie had fully de
eilded to speak here, he was in a rooimi
where three banners were being pro
pared by young ladies. luiseriptiois

if the cause vas successfil ! It wa's an
American phrase and nli Aineriean
idea ; no foreigil Iaigutage lhad a word
which would correspond in ieanilg.
The drunkard had no home, for his
terrible habit spoiled it. An orphan
might carry that bainer ; we should
think of hiin and his lihome. The
speaker appealed to his lieirers to pro
tect our homes by abolishing bar roo'ns,
to fix their minds onl some homie which
was dlestroyed by liquohir. A mall
might receive a dispat ch ann11o1u1eig
the fact that four mien had been kil ed

David Ramsey in one( of his books haua1
said that drilkiling was the endelmic
vice (if South tarolina, anid that t lie

It was omr dlty therefore to comiibinle
