Help from the Ladies.

There can be no doubt that it is entirely
in the power of the Ladies of this country to
revive the interest in the Temperance cause,
if they will but come forward and use that
power. They are the greatest sufferers by
the declension and lukewarmness that now
prevails /; and it is to their interest and for
their protection, that we appeal to them to
come to the rescue in this day Of need.
Ample and appropriate provision has been
made for their admission into the Division
ROOMS, and where this provision has beer
cheerfully and heartily accepted, the socia
and moral good of that community has been
greatly promoted, and the cause of temper
ance greatly enhanced. The Editor of tn,
Camden Journal thus speaks of witnessing
the introduction of Ladies into the Division
room
AN IMPRESSIVE CEREMoNY.-We had TIL
pleasure On Thursday evening last, of bein:
present and taking part in the interestin;
exercises at Temperance Hall, where nearl,
thirty ladies were introduced and obligate,
as visitors of Wateree Division.
After this, seventeen gentlemen were I'M
tiated as members of the Order, besides, ser
eral others reunited themselves with tn
Division. We hope that all are now in 70
the war.
On no former occasion have we been a
deeply impressed with the moral beauty an
sublimity of our glorious Order, and we fee
confident that all present shared the enjoy
ment of this interesting and profitable occa
sion Indeed, we have heard but opinion
and that of the greatest satisfaction, an
this too by those who nave been hitherto ur
concerned and Indifferent to the workings
this silent, yet powerful agent in the mor'
world. Our friends who are standing o
the outer walls, are not aware of how muc
they are losing by neglecting an organic
ton which is destined, we hope, to wor
wonders in our land.

Words of Wisdom.

We remember having once read of a faith
er whose son, addicted to some vicious pro-
pensities, babe the boy drive a nail into a
certain post whenever he committed a GER
tain fault, and agreed that a nail should be
drawn out whenever he corrected an error.
In the course of time the post was complete
ly filled with nails.
The youth became alarmed at the extent
of his indiscretions and set about reforming
himself. One by one the nails were drawn
out, the delighted father commended him
for his noble, selfdenying heroism, in free
ing himself from his faults.
"They are all drawn out" said the parent.
The boy looked sad, and there was a whole
volume of practical wisdom in his sadness
With 8 heavy heart he replied:
"True, father; but the scars are still
there"
What q fitting rebuke was this to the Of
ten expressed but dangerous sentiment, that
boys who are left to their own will, though
they may become dissolute and vicious in
early life, will at mature age see the error of
their way and reform and having expert
enced the evils of a vicious course will but
the more studiously avoid it. The fatal err
ror lnculcated in such a sentiment, is too
transparent to require refutation-but by
Its practice many a noble youth has been
wrecked on the barren island of DESPAIR.
But even if it were true, the oscars" which
those years of dissipation leave behind are
lhehaceable' and entail a remorse as lasting
as the conscience. He is only the wreck of
what he once was in all the noble attributes
OF a true man. Reformed he may be-thor.
oughiy-entirely-but he is covered with
scars-dishonorable scars-which will dis.
hgure him as long as he lives. Avoid that
which causes the wound, rather than look to
the curatlves which heal. Avoid that which
leaves the scar.

The Slain along the Way.

When a laborer in the temperance reform
casts his eyes about upon society-when he
remembers the years of toll and effort that
have been spent-the immense sums of
money that have been expended-the ten
hundred thousands of bleached skeletons that
lie scattered all along life's pathway, to warn
from the cup of intoxication-and then sees
how little effect is produced-how utterly
unheeded these solemn warnings are passed
by, he feels like throwing Down his armor-
like giving,up the contest, as one in which
it is impossible to triumph.
Such are our feelings, sometimes, in these
days of Encouragement and gloom. We have
labored, with many others, in endeayoring
to stem the torrent of destruction and death
which sweeps over our land. For a time
the prospect was encouraging-the locks and
dams thrown across its fiery current seemed
to promise to turn back its maddening
waters. Hope reared her cleaning crest
that cast a ray of light athwart the turbid
waves but when about to turn to full frui-
ton, the locks and dams Of restraints that
had been thrown up gave way, and the seeth-
ing deluge again spread out all over the land.
In vain do we call upon our former allies
g to come and help arrest again the burning
tide-they have either deserted their post, or
sit idly by, refusing to render aid. A few
sturdy, manly souls answer to the call-but
. where hundreds of voices then responded, 8
single feeble voice now is heard. Divisions
, are deserted-efort is abandoned, and ever
0 the temperance press is languishing, threat
ened with a speedy humiliation.
With such q view of the case, is it to be
wondered at that a feeling of dependency
should come over US? But shall we give up
r Shall thu uA;na Of man and the voice of tn
Press be hushed Sad will be the day whel
this calamity shall fall upon us. Reader
e. would you avert it? Then give us you
y help-labor for the cause-labor with you
a friends-labor for the Press. Feed it wit
the sinews of war, or it's thunder tones wi
or die out forever.

She Never Leaves Him.

This may be emphatically said of WOMAN
Man will forsake his fellow man. In the hour
of misfortune and adversely his friends will
turn away and refuse him aid and sympathy.
In the time of prosperity and success he will
forget and neglect once cherished companions,
because they are less fortunate and in the
dark hour Of accusation and peril man betrays
his bosom friend into the hands ofhis enemies.
ButWoman, faithful woman-follows him in
his af1iction with mistaken affection braves
the changes OF his feelings, of his temper EN-
Filtered by the disappointments of the world,
with the highest of allvirtues; in resigned pa
thence ministers to his wants, even when her
own are hard and pressing she weeps with
him, tear for tear, in his distress, and is the
first to catch and reflect a ray of JOY, should
but one light up his countenance in the midst
of his suferings and she never leaves him
in his misery while there remains one act of
love, duty, or compassion to be performed
And at last, when life and sorrow comes to-
gether, she follows him to the tomb, with the
ardor of affection which death itself cannot
destroy.
