Be it ever so simple
There's nothing like payer
If strangers = prayer, we strangers to bliss,
Heavn pous It's thro no medium but this
Ii VIC, like the sea, rs, would ccst-cics share,
our chalce Of JOY must De hallowd by prayer
Prayer prayer,
Oh sweet prayer,
Be it ever humble,
There's nothing like prayer.
When duty requires christian friends here to part,
What fond eoollections then cling the heart
Past sorrows and woes, past enjoyments are there,
But an how much sweeter Is heaven 10 share.
Prayer, prayer,
Oh sweet prayer,
But all how much swcoter
Is heaven t. share. n.
TEMPERANCE REFoRM AND BANk RrFoRM.-Thc
Tuscarawas Democrat has the following excellent
advice for these reform times
"The Columbus Statesman states as al instance
Of the reform IN the public sentiment in relation TO
tie money shayers that one Of the brokers' Offices
IN Chillcuthc, had been swept aud washed OUT and
: occupied a room for prayer meetings. and
that number of hard cider wings about rolling
ont of their cellars great number OF whskey bar
I rels, and burning them on the commons "
There Is 10 doubt that IN the next year We shall
see a greater reform among bankers than was
among the rum drinkers. Hard cider whiskey,
and paper money all sprang from the same source.
They the great engines OF the devil for corrupt
ing and debauchlng the sons OF Adam. Hence, II

about the country, relating their experience, -

into his clutches-is 1t not reasonable 10 suppose,

The fact Is, temperance is going ahead and so Is
bank reform. But there ire two things be done
yet. In every town where there has been a bank
bursted, or where burst IL expected, the citizens
should establish "hank reform society, - and induce
all paper money robbers to join it. And wherever
there is a temperance society, let the pledges be
amended so as to exclude not only the of rum
and hard cider, bat also the use Of paper money
ToucuIxG IXcIDENr.-During his speech in Fan

kns related instance OF the terrible effects of
intenperance, which had recently come under his
observation IN Worcester county. \ victim of this
appetite had driven his family from ms miserable
habtation, and had parted with everything he

no longer there to keep warmth aud llf, n him. and
when the coroner came To hold an inquest the only
food found IN tie place was half a pint of meal.

writer IN the Glasgow Argus who signs himself
"A clergyman Of the Established Church Of scot

bring premature grave at least % 600 persons
annually IN Great Britain" Well may the writer
