is not a full conservation. Can you be
filled with the Spirit while you are i'm
pregnated with this foul essence? I tell
you nay; let an enlightened man be filled
with Gods spirit and he will shut his
door to all such odious, deadly things
In vain does a man plead for temper
ance, and yet himself topper in tobacco.
La vain does he plead for civil liberty,
while he remains voluntary slave to this
filthy lust. In vain does he plead the
cause of moral reform while he himself
transgresses the will Of Sod and breaks
away from moral restraint.
My friend, do you wish to enjoy more
of God2 do YOU wish to contribute for
the cause of the Gospel? do you wish TO
be filled with the Holy Spirit? Let me
persuade you this moment, while God by
his Spirit is striving with you on this
subject-!his moment, while this subject
is before you, to draw up resolution
which will stand, to cast this poisonous,
filthy weed from you, and God being
your witness, never, as a luxuryto take
it again; and God will bless you in so
doing. Let this be the moment when the
chains shall be broken and the enslaved
60 free | would rather wear the chains
of the South, in innocence, and receive
the lash, than ensIave my own soul and
keep it penned up in such polluted tab
ernacle. Brea away-burst the letters
proclaim libertv-raise your ensi On and
write FREEDOM there-and God will re-
ward you. AN ABoLITloNIsT.
FeS. 1899.
The Senate of the United States has re-
| Gently passed bill for the armed occupa-
sicn of Florida. 1t proposes to encourage
settlers to drive out the Indians by appro-
priations to arm them for that purpose.
The people Of Florida are about petit
tioning Congress for admission among the
States Of the Union.
GEO. G.. BEcKwrrH, Corresponding Secre.
tary of the American Peace Society, and
Editor of the American Advocate of Peace,
is frequently forwarding articles for the Tel
egraph, in the shape Of slips from the Bos-
ton Recorder-which articles he very well
knows contain sentiments hostile TO my
own views Of sound doctrine. NowI nave
liberal proposition to make friend Beck
with. 1t is this: will insert his articles
in the Telegraph, provided he will insert
my replies to them, in the Advocate Of Peace
or procure their insertion in The Boston Re-
corder. If he cannot afford to do either o.
these things, he must not think ii illIberal il
cannot afford him all the room he asks in
the Telegraph.
