This impassioned speech about the dangers of intemperance, licentiousness, and infidelity was given at Polkville, New York, in May 1848. The currently unidentified orator warned against travelling exhibitions, theatre, sleight of hand, "modern ball room influence," and public singing. They also make what may or may not be a reference to Dr. R. H. Collyer's "Model Artists" (pertinent to animal magnetism/mesmerism).

The author discussed the monetary profits of tavernkeepers, landlords, and rum-sellers, and also condemned those who indirectly supported liquor dealers through the support of balls, or dinners with oysters and cigars. The people who attended such gatherings were labelled as aiders and abettors. Within the speech is the motto "To the rescue of the World from the reign of King Alcohol."

The orator argued that the decline, crime, mutiny, and subsequent execution Philip Spencer (1823-1842) was the result of intemperance influenced by "The Pirate's Own Book." Other subjects mentioned include college life, party politics, and the need for all temperance supporters and societies to work together despite political and social differences.
