duty TO record the downfall Of this disiin
guished minister. His many friends have
for years looked with fearful anxiety 10 The
result Of habits which it has been believed
lie was forming. He has been tried before
q court Of ministers Of his own church, on
charges Of intoyication ard Ecentiousress,
and suspended from his position as q minis
ter q Tie go-pel. lie las also resigned his
position as President and Trustee of tie
Safe University. alleging as the cause "'the
unpleasant circumstances by which lie is
SUR .nded" The final decision in his case
will III made by the annual conference, un
til which time we suppose it Is scarcely fair
to say that he is positively guilty Of the
charges preferred against him, but all who
have known his course for the past few years.
viii have but little doubts of his guilt
whether convicted or not.
The fate IF DR.. Daily is but another evil
dence Of tie evils Of the sale Of intoxicating
liquors, and the pro1niseaous use Of them in
the higher circles Of society. If liquor had
been confined to the low doggery, and pub
lie opinion had placed it in its proper position
such men the subject Of this notice would
net have been its victim. The fashionable
hotel and the private circles Of false aris-
tocracy are responsible for bis downfall
We hone to see this baneful influence driven
from all grades of society, and especially
from those places where those who waa!d
otherwise ornament society shall not be
under its temptations. We have in cur
community, men who bid as fair to ot-'ia
guish themselves in tie world. did

which have wrought his ruin are treading
