APoIitical PREACHER.

Times change and we change with them
Preachers did, in days Of yore, what, is
disallowed now. John the Baptist said,
"Repent for the Kingdom of heaven is at
hand" That was well enough; but when
he told them what sins to repent of. che
dabbled in the dirty pool of politics." He
told Herod to repent of the sin of incest
He warned him that it was not lawful for
him to have his brother Philips wife.
In 50 doing he meddled with Herod's do
mestic relations. Herod thought such
meddling by administer was great shame,
and, perhaps, great many others held
the same views, and Johns influence was
greatly injured among the politicians Of
Herod's party. The womon, too, that
Satan gave him for wife, was much in
censed. some womad become indignant
atthose who preach politics. She though
such doines quite intolerable, and John
lost his head. How is it, that orators and
editors, who declaim, SO loudly against
political preaching. have failed to hold up
the the awful fate of John, as warning
to those who oppose slavery-extension {?
We take it for granted that these men
think that Herod served him as he deserv-
ed. We don't believe that any less pun
1shment will stop tie thing complained
Of. Decapitation, without doubt, might
accomplish the object. stopping their
iced and senting them away for their
charges, will not silence men of all cIas-
ses. Hprompt and decided m measures had
not been adopted with John the Baptist.
there might bave been an agitation round
about Herod and Herodias, and the peace
Oh .ne country would have suffered no lit
ue. Cutting Of preachers heads always
stop their mouths, and yet, perhaps, it
opens the mouth Of others.-PyesJgter;an

PURITY OF THE BLOOD that our strength

When the various passages become cloggeds
and do not act in perfect harmony with the
different functions of the body, the blood loses
its action, becomes, thick, corrupted and dis
eased thus causing pains, sickness, and dis
t.ess of every name our strength is exhausted,
our health are deprived of, and if nature is
not assisted in throwing off the stagnant hu-
mors the blood will become choked and cease
to act and thus our light of life will be forever
blown out. How important then that we should
keep the various passages of the body free and
open. And how pleasant to us that we have
it In our powerto put medicine in your reach,
namely, Morse's Indian Root Pills, manufac-
tured from plants and roots which grow around
the mountainous cl ifs in Natures garden, for
the health and recovery of diseased man. One
of the roots from which these Pills are made is

Diuretic, which gives ease and double strength
to the kidneys thus encouraged, they draw
large amounts of impurity from the blood.
which is then thrown out bountifully bv the

have been discharged in any other way. The
fourth is a Cahartic, and accompanies the
