PREACHING TEMPERANCE AND POLL


Those who are most ready to find fault with
Ministers, for m%eddling with Temperance or Pol
tics, are such as manufacture shrines for the tenn
pie of Diana, for by their craft they have their liv.
ing. Every one in the rum or lager beer trade,
think that ministers have no business to preach
about Temperance, it don't belong to Christianity,
and interests party hacks aud office hunters, most
of whom bave no more religion than a horse, think
i a dissertation of the pulpit for them to preach
or lecture about politics, no matter what the sub
ject or question may be. Now it strikes us, that,
rs many political questions, and particularly TEN.
~perance, are so intimately connected with our
morals, that ministers are the very persons who
ought to talk about them. In the time Of the Rev.
%oIutiou, all ministers except those of the ChuIchI
of England, preached upon politics, and ! doubt
much whether our liberties and independence
would have been achieved, had they not done SO.
The great political questions of the present day
are as important as those of tho Revolution. Drum
kenuess is the parent Of vice, poverty, degradation,
misery and premature death, and not only SO to
the drunkard himself, but to his innocent family.
How can a minister, if he possesses the heart of a
man, refrain from preaching against such a sJul
and body destroying scourge.-Ex.

A WALK.
One evening, as took walk
The brick paved streets around,
There being no one near TO talk,
Ihastened o'cr the ground.
/ passed a well known corner house.
In which is often played
The sweetest strains Of music. such
As makes the steps more staid.
Twas there stopped, but not SO much
For what was heard as seen,
Two pictures in a frame saw,
With glass to serve for screen.
But. did say, they PICTURES were,
In frame and glass?
No, not pictures, but the genuine,
And bright eyed loving lass.
Their cheeks looked fresh and eyes as bright
AS diamonds in ring,
They did not speak, nor did they move,
Not even for to sing.
So near had they their faces to
The intervening glass,
They might have been mistaken for
The pictures of the las.
Their eyes were set-not on the ground,
But on the passer by;
And every one who passed that way
Was sure to catch their eye.
Thus make them love their pretty face,
rs suppose they thaught,
But he that's bought with pretty face
Is very easy b. ught.
Or he who seeks for beauty sweet,
And nothing else reside,
Is sure to get just such an one
AS he deserves for bride.
We've all been told, in days of old,
Deception not to follow,
For beauty sweet still hides deceit,
All hollow, hollow, hollow.
And if those girls were good and true,
AS they appeared to be
They II have to act another way,
To make beau of me.

Somebody.

Somebody's courting somebody,
Somewhere or other, tonight,
Somebody S whispering to somebody,
Somebody's list'ning to somebody,
Under this clear moonlight.
Near the brightriver's flow,
Running so still and slow,
Talking SO soft and low,
She sits with somebody.
Pacing the oceans shore,
Edged by the foaming roar.
Words, never breathed before,
Sound sweet to somebody.
Under the maple tree.
Deep though the shadow be,
Plain enough they can see
Bright eyes has somebody.
No one sits up to wait,
Though she is out SO late
All know she's at the gate,
Talking with somebody.
Tip-toe to parlor door
Two shadows ON the floor
Moonlight reveals no more
Susy and somebody.
Two, sitting side by side.
Float with the ebbing tide.
"Tlus, dearest, may we glide
Through life, says somebody.
Somewhere, somebody
Makes love to somebody,
Tonight.
