TTE ND WABD MEI roos.-There will be meetings of the Dem? ocratic voters this evening in every Ward in the city. At some of them, earnest and prac? tical addresses will be delivered. Every good citizen should be present. In this connection, the application of a passage in a recent ser? mon by Henry Waid Beecher is so happy and torc hie, that we cannot forbear quoting it. The reverend Radical said : Lastly, Christian men must learn their duty to their cou.itry in regard to politics. If we are to leave the admiuistration of public affairs to the men that most naturally take to it, we leave ourselves to be governed by dishonest men. There is no ho e. if professional poli? ticians are to take the managtmeut of primary meetings and of goneral elections; if they are to soleet the candidates, then manage for their election, and then manage them wheu elected. There con bo but one termination to such a course as that. We shall certainly sink uuder the corruption that will ensue; wo are smkiug already. There is but one remedy; aud every Christian man is to consult, not his case, nor his taste, nor his convenience, but his duty. You were sworn when you were born into this great nation. Birth is'oath, in America. And the man that sits at his ease, and refuses to th nk, or vote, or act as a citizen politician, in thia country, is a perjurer, and violates his most 8olom?, practical oath. There is no man so pious that he should not have much to do witn primary elections. There ia no man so busy that he is not bound to take time to at? tend them. It is the business of every ward, it is the business of every precinct, it is the business o? every citizen, of every neighbor? hood and community, to see to it that uncor? rupted and uncorruptible men are, first, nom? inated for office, secondly, elected. And what? ever is necessary to do that becomes your duty. If it requires you to go lo nasty places, vou wwii go there. If U requins you to meet had company, you must meet lad company. If it requires you to take time to manage wriggling knaves, you must take time to man? age wriggling knaves. The faithful housewife cannot say, "I have no time to exterminate the pests of tlie bed and closet and pa ltry: ?he is bound to see to it that the food, and r?imeni, and children are kept clean. It takes time, to be sure. Misa disagreeable task to cortib out children and wash them, and care tor them at all times, and cure them from a dozen disa? greeable diseases that are incident to thom; nevertheless, love docs it; a- d >?ou lime gol to comb, and wash and clean the community in the same way. 1 ou are, all of you, guardians and parents of the common weal; and Christian men, with their laziness, or their unwilling? ness to go into tho inconveniences of these pri? mary meetings; that neglect these things, and see matters going from bad to worse, and think that they have no responsibility, and nothing to do but rail at thieves and politicians, would do we.l to put to themselves the question, "what hav-31 done to prevent or cure corrup? tion ? " Are you not a froc born citizen and a voter? What is it that makes it the duty of any man in this country to di vote his time to this matter, that docs not make it equallv your duty? "Ab, merchant 1 nh, judge! ah, young con? vert I ah, mi. .ister 1 ?ou are, ail of you, first, citizens; and you will never reach any point higher than that. Be a citizen: bo an honest man, and an honest citizen; bo a Christian mau, and a Christian citizen. There is noth? ing nigher than that in this nation; and un? less Ctiristiau men and Christian citizens take in hand the purification of public morals and public affairs, aud seo to it that tho courts nre filled with tho right mon; that tho legisla? tures are filled with the right men; and that officers throughout the government are God fearing and pure-minded men-unless this is done, I Bay, our sun is not far from setting, for 1 am sure that if the tido of corruption goes on increasing in power, in tho ratio in which it bas done for the past few years, this nation cannot cou tim' e to stand up under it. The process ot' disintegration is already coming on; we may for a time withstand it, but the symp? toms will continually become more alarming, and by and by tho diseas? will become incur? able." ADVERTISEMENT EXTRAORDINARY.-John F. O'Neill & Son have sent us one of the most in? genious specimens of advertising that we have ever soon. It consists of a volume beautifully illustrated, and devoted to tho praises of "Ale in Prose and Verse." Tho book, which is in? tended especially as an advertisement of John Taylor & Sons' Albany alo, consists of three parts-tho firet, entitled "A Runlet of Ale," being a mock-heroic poem by Barry Gray, whom we remember as a veteran New York littrateur. The poem, which is marked by considerable cleverness, is illustrated through? out aptly and elegantly. It is followed by an essay on "Ale, Antiquarian, Historical and Literary," by John Savage, which exhibits con? siderable research, and is very pleasant read? ing. The volume conoludes with a sketch of John Taylor & Sons'Brewery, adorned with copious engravings of the various sections of that mammoth establishment. The ingenuity which could contrive such a tribute to the merits of the foaming bowl could hardly fail,, when employed upon the concoction of its contents, to deserve Boniface's eulogium : "Ale I 'Tis smooth as oil, sweet as milk, clear as amber, and strong as brandy. ? ? ? Sir, I have fed purely upon ale; I have ate my ale, drank my ale, and I always Bleep upon ale. ***** . JJ0Wj Bjj.) vou gjjjji eee (filling a glass) your worship's health.
