Gen>perante Matter,
"NOT AN ULTRAIST."

Such was the reply of q clergyman when
We solicited his influence and cooperation
in the temperance reform. What did the
reverend gentleman mean by this remark
What constitutes an ultra temperance man
This wesuppose depends very much upon
the place and circumstances. In Scotland
teetotaler is regarded by nine-tenths Of
the Doctors ofDivinity as an in6del, one who
repudiates entirely the gospel precept of
"temperance in all things" Such one
is a fanatic, and ultraist! In more enlight-
ened districts thorough abstainer may be
very conservative man, and be ranked even
among the enemies of temperance. The
person to whom we refer could not be more
appropriately sketched than to have his pic"
ture drawn with grog.seller on one side and
a lager-beer Dutch infdel on the other, as
supporters-;yet he never drinks.
He thinks temperance men 60 to ex"
tremes, hence he never goes to temperance
meeting, nor publishes one from his pul"
pit. Sometimes he delicately, and in a very
indirect way, prays that men may be led to
abandon liquor-selling, as thing to be de-
sired in the distant future No moderate
drinker, liquor-sellcr or distiller will ever
have his feelings wounded, or his conscience
troubled by his pulpit ministrations. He
never joined the " Sons of Temperance" be-
cause he can do more for the cause outside
of the Order 1t would crafty him to have
grog-shops abolished, but public sentiment is
not yet prepared, for such moment. Sucl,
trimmers and time-servers do more to him
der the onward progress of the reform than
the profane, outspoken opposer. If the
Saviour and his early disciples had waited uI'
til public sentiment was prepared for their
ministrations, they would have delayed un'
til the day of judgment. Ifthis modern specl'
men had lived in the time of Stephen, be
would not have thrown'a stone at the martyr,
but he would cheerfully like Saul have stood
by and held the garments of those who did
A minister of the Gospel who is not regard
ed by the ungodly as ultra, is not worthy Of
his calling. fto labor for the reformation
of drunkards, and the utter determination by
law of dramshops in the shortest possible
time, constitutes an ultraist, chen we glory
in the name! Our opinon is, there are
swill "milk" ministers of the Gospel as vel
as " swill milk politicians" and that they are
worthy companions Of each other.-Crusa

CoNsT1TUTIoNALITY OF LIQUOR LAWS

CoNsT1TUTIoNALITY OF LIQUOR LAWS.
Chief Justice Taney says: If any State
deems the retail and internal traffic in ardent
spirits injurious to its citizens, and calculated
to produce idleness, vice, or debauchery, I
see nothing in the Constitution of the United
States to prevent it from regulating or re-
strainiug the traffic, or from prohibiting it
altogether, if it thinks proper"
Chief Justice Taney is perhaps right in
reference to the Constitution of the United
States, butsome of our one. horse State Courts
are of opinion thatidleness, vice and debauch-
cry are protected by our State Constitutions.
Judges of no mean pretensions claim that it
is the legitimate province of State Govern
ments to license and protect the prolific
cause ofidleness, vice, debauchery and crime I!
The great lowgiver of the Universe has said,
Woe unto him that giveth his neighbor
drink, that putteth the bottle to him and
maketh him drunken but we have thought
proper to add, unless he has good moral
character and hath oJtaineed a license!

TIE RUMsELLER. There was never q
social evil of such magnitude as the liquor
traffic. In every village, in every town,
in every city, there exists class of men, the
pests of society, the source of nearly all our
suferings, who are busted day by day in
manufacturing drunkards, in destroying che
morals of the people, in dealing out poison
to the women and helpless children; a class
to whose nefarious practices We trace up more
than three. .fourths of all the crime, the mis-
cry and poverty of the land; class except
for which we might close all our jails, our
penitentiaries, our lunatic asylums, our poor
houses. Crusnder.

LIST. Total abstinence from all intoxicating
liquors as a beverage.
I'd. No license in any form or under any
circumstances for the sale Of such liquors to
be used as a beverage.
Sd. The absolute prohibition of the sale
of intoxicating liquors for such purposes
prohibition by the will of the people express
ed in due form of law, with the penalties de-
served for crime of such enormity.
4th. The creation of healthy public o.
pinion upon this subject, by the active dis
semmination of truth in all modes known to
an enlightened philanthropy.
5th. The election of good and honest men
to administer law.
9th. Persistence in efforts to rescue indi-
viduals and communities from so direful o
scourge, against all forms of opposition and
difficulty, until our success is complete and
universal.
7th. We recognize all the essential prin-
ciples and measures of temperance, as belong
ing to the purest forms of the Christian re-
ligion as having existence and organic life
in the different Christian churches, and de-
pending largely upon their official and indi-
vidual action for success. Werely most con-
fdently upon the efficient labors of their
members and ministers, and upon the gui-
dance and blessing of the great Ruler Of the
Universe, who, as we solemnly believe, can,
under no circumstances, harmonize with the
forms of fragrant vice we are seeking to de-
stroy.

Ho! ye who at the anvil toll,
And strike the sounding blow,
Where from the burning irons breast
The sparks fly to and fro,
While answering to the hsmmer's ring,
And fires intenser glow
Oh, while we feel tits hard to toll
And sweat the long day through,
Remember it is harder still
To have no work to do
Ho! ye who till the stubborn soil,
Whose hard hands guide the plow,
Who bend beneath the summer sun,
With burning cheek and brow
Ye deem the curse still cling to earth
From olden times till now
But while we feel it's hard to toll
And labor all day through,
Remember it is harder still
To have no work to do
Ho ye who plow the seas blue fields
Who ride the restless wave,
Beneath whose gallant vessels keel
There lies yawning grave.
Around whose bark the wintry wind
Like fends of fury rave
Oh, while we feel tits hard to toll
And labor long hours through,
Remember it is harder still
To have no work to do.
Ho! ye upon whose fevered cheeks
The hectic blush is bright;
Whose mental toll wears out the day
And half the weary night;
Who labor for the souls Of men,
Champions of truth and right
Although ye feel your toll is hard,
Even with this glorious view,
Remember it is harder still
To have no work to do.
Ho! all who labor-all who strive
Ye WELD lofty power:
Do with your might, do with your strength,
Fill every golden hour;
The glorious privilege, to do.
Is mans most noble dover,
Oh, to your birthright and yourselves,
To your own souls be true!
A weary wretched life is theirs
Who have no work to do!
