From the Fountain and Son Of Temperance.
Christianity VS.. the Liquor System;
OR
An Appeal to Christians in behalf Of
Temperance.

Christianity is confessedly identi
cal with the highest and purest civili-
zation, d pf0notiYo pf the highest
good Of the human race. It is insep-
erably interviewer with the softest
hopes-the noblest aspirations-the
purest Joys, as well as the most sub
stantial and enduring happiness of
mankind. We propose contrasting
its spirit and tendency, with the spirit
and tendency of the Liquor System
and thus to show the utter incompat-
ibility of the one with the other
And likewise, to point out the duty Of
christian men and women in relation
to the subject of temperance. The
process is neither tedious nor difficult.
The conclusion is certain and newt
able. Let us then inquire,
lst. What is the spirit, or soul of
chri8tianitys We answer most unhes-
itatiDgly, lOrei Love to God and our
neighbor, For on these two com,
mandments, hang all the law and the
Phrophets.'
Love, then is the very soul Of all
true religion. Possessing this spirit,
man becomes 'partaker, of the d.
vine nature and is united in spirit
and interest TO the throne Of God,
and power pledged to the welfare and
happiness Of his fellow man. This
spirit must display itself in schemes
Of expansive benevoIence-in acts Of
noble generosity-in all that is kind,
tender and benifcient. Its most ap-
propriate expression is found in that
delightful song and chorus Of the
angels, whose appearance startled the
wondering shepherds upon the plains
of Judea, at the advent Of our Savior,
when they sung 'Glory to God in
the highest, on earth, peace and good
will to man. We inquiries,
I'd. What are the legitimate fruits
Of this spirit? We answer first mega
lively, Love Worket6 no i'll 10 he's
neigk6or, 1T will do no harm-it
works no mischief. 1t will neither
rob, nor steal, nor kill. 1t will moi

inimitable person.i in reply to the ques-
ton, Who is my neighbor?'
We have an infallible standard by
which to Judge, either of men or sys.
TENS, in the following declarations:
The tree is known BY its fruits al
good tree cannotbring forth evil fruit,
neither can corrupt tree bring forth
good fruit "A fountain cannot send
forth sweet waters and bitter.'3 And
now, in the light Of all past history
in the light Of every days expert
ence, and every mans observation,
we ask, what is the fruit of the liz
quor system? What has it always
been, and what must it continue to
be? We answer, 'Ega and only emil,
and that continudlLy.' d 6m
Let us take another view Of the
subject. Christianity enioins the duty
Of prayer and praise. For example,
Pray without ceasing, and in every
thing give thanksP m
We make this general observation
in regard to prayer, which we think
will not be called in question, viz. !:
tits our duty to labor most earnestly
for that which we pray. In other
words, we have no encouragement to
expect that our prayers will be an
swered, unless we diligently seek, in
every proper way, for The attalnmenl
ot AZ objeCs.
we pray, give US this day our daily
H bread, and refuse to labor for bread,
will we be likely to get it? Suppose
we pray, lead us not into temptation,
and then run directly in the way OF
temptation, will such prayers help us?
Suppose we pray, thy kingdom come,
thy will be done on earth, as it is
done in heaven, and neither seek
the one nor try to do the other, will
such prayers avail? These examples
may suffice for the object we have in
view.
And now we ask, how will the IL
quor dealer prayl Will he ask Gods
blessing upon him as he goes forth
at early dawn, to deal out misery and
death? Will he call his family circle
around him at late hour of the
night, and give thanks and pray for
Gods blessing on his labors? o,
would not his tongue cleave to the
roof of his mouth and his heart
sink abashed before the holy awe, if
he should attempt it? 1t is most
clearly business for the success of
which no man can truly, and sincere
ly pray, and about which, if he prays
at all, he must pray for its oUerthrow.
It is so obviously opposed to the
kingdom and reign Of Christ, that
every man who sincerely labors and
prays for the one, must pray and labor
for the subversion and overthrow of
the other, for "a kingdom divided
\ against itself cannot stand, and what
fellowship hath Christ with BeIial?'
i Only think of a rumseller, with his
heart glowing with devout praise, fer
vently rejoiCingin the success Of his
business, when that success is highly
destructive of every other interest in
the community! Think of the vender
of ardent spirits, just after taking
the lastIsix-pence from his poor trem'
bling victim, and dealing out the ac-
cursed poison in exchange, deyoutly
Il lifting his eyes to heaven and ejacu-
