Prof. J. H. Carlisle on Prohlbition.
We take the Iollowing extract from
Prof. Carlisle's Address delivered to
tle voters and citizens of the City of
(recville, on Friday niight last, as re
ported to "The Daily News
The speaker began by saying that,
two days ago, before lhe had fully de
vided to speak here, he wa1s in) a room,
where three banners vere being pr -
pared by youm ladies. lorseriptions

see borile ill t riiiph, -fuIri nishet d him11
with the inspiration to speak to the
people of Greenville irn belhalf of tem
peranceC. Upon the first balntierI were
tIhe words "Home.,Sweet Home." .1ow'
proudly ien A would read that sentenice
if the cause was siccessfIIl ! It, was an
American phrase atid an American
idea ; 110 foreign language had a word
which would correspond in leaning.
The drunkard had no home, for his
terrible habit spoiled it. Ai orphan
might carry that baiier ; we shouil
think of him and his home. 'he
speaker appealed to his hearers to pro
tect our bomes by abolishing bar rooms,
to fix ther minds oi some homne whihel
was destroyed by liquor. A inan
might receive a dispatch announeing
tle fact that. four Ielinl had been killed
inl a Collision aild he woull( be scarcelv

in the happiness anl sainctity of our
Ioimes. The speaker Said the.1 Secondi

David Raisey in one of his loos ltad
said that drinkimm was the enedemi
vice 41f South 'irolina, al that t lie

It was our lduty therefore to comihinie;
our infilluntcis to prote(c. lie boys from
