Profanity.


Some one has said, 4" man Of sense will
never swear" and We adopt il rs our opinion
also. The taking OF the name Of God in
vain Is the least pardonablo Of all SINS
There il nothing to uphold it. There IS no
reasoning-no logic BY which a man can
prove himself guiltless, who p~rofanes the
name OF his maker.
"oa wti some p1w'r tho giftie gle us,
To see ourselves as others see US.
And would that the p%rofane swearer could
behold himself as he appears in the eyesof
othors. methinks he would shrink from his
own image. and refuse to holl fellowship
with the being thus beheld, lest he should be
contaminated.
Whenever we hear n man deal in blasphe-
nv. we nut it down, that there is q weak part
somewhere. For, there is certainly no plau'
sible excuse Cor the vain and idle words
which fall from bis lips. Suppose Sod shoulc
take him Ut bis word, what despair woulC
take possession Of him-what horror would
seize upon his gnilty conscience and yet
If God dealt with as after our sins, aud re
wardel according 70 our iniqnities," W
could not murmur and If justice was NEE
ted as our guilty natures deserve, we coul
not complain Of tho hand that dealt the blow
"Thou shalt MT swear, " is the command {
God. and t" wnosocver therefore shall brea
one Of these least commands, and shall teac
men so, he shall be called the least in tn

on Monday the Goth inst. The Ports

several days to the city Of Raleigh returned
Tuesday evening by the Express train, aud
were met at the depot Ivy a detachment Of the
National Greys. The Portsmouth, Transcript
speaks thus Of their visit:
The Riaemen are perfectly enamoured with
their visit. On the upward trip, they were
met at Weldon by a committee Of Oak City
Guards, who accompanied them to Raleigh,
and were welcomed, on behalf Of their North
Carolina friends, by Col. Marley. We have
no note of proceedings, but learn that they
were invited to the Governors house, who
addressed and entertained them, as did also
the Mayor of Raleigh and the Hon. J.. OBJ,
Branch indeed, the courtisies extended the
Rife Company were in harmony withland
fully sustained the character Of the Old North
State. The Oak City Guards-who evident.
ly know we'll how to welcome friends and
repulse fo~es-besides their profusea ttentions
had prepared a silver goblet, suitably insert

Just passed will tend to that end.

10 DEEPEN the interest, and bring about that
glorious time when the banners 0f Temper

and ultimate triumph the result.
Old and young should labor in the worthy
cause of Temperance. Old men, who have

seen thousands fall on the right hand and OF
