Lamb, amen and amen; shouted three times, which
not only gave JOY on earth, but filled the heavens
with gladness. A new hymn, composed for the &C.
casion was then sung. The first verse of which is:
Have you heard the revelation
! OF this latter dispensaon,
| Which Is to every nation,

ungentlemanlike vice. The condemnation is lust

than human power TO aid in infictng pain. And
among whom do we find this vice most prevalent?
Among those most addicted to other vices and es-
pecially intemperance. Drunkards, generally
swear because ntemperance impairs selfrespect
for others. To swear like a pirate, is proverb.
Why? Because profanity is the usual vice of the
