The VI EDICINE QUEsTION.-Ihe
Temperance world is taking correct
ground on the alcoholic medicine queS-
ton. No mercy should be shown to
alcohol. whatever form it may assume,
to be taken into the human system.
1t has been demonstrated that there
is no virtue IN alcohol, as a beverage
or as a medicine. 1t is not digestible,
but is expelled from the system as
alcohol. 1t impartS nothing, but robs
the system of vitality. 1t does not
build up, but its nature is to destroy.
1t is under all circumstances, as bev-
erage or a medicine, an enemy, and
should never be compromised with in
the least.
Nearly all who drink claim to do SO
because there is virtue in alcohol as q
medicine. Dispel the illusion and tho
Incorporate have no entrenchment,
/ behind which to fee. Let public sen
timent stamp alcoholic stimulants a.
not only unnecessary. but p0sitivel,
injurious under all circumstances, anC
men will have no other reason to drink
than, because they love it or its mad
dening effects. Then we can wage
successful warfare from all our forces
The pulpit will condemn its use a
Sin; the medical faculty as a relic o
DarbariSm; the schools as q menta
and moral curse, That day is upo
US. and the future motto will BEN
more compromise with an enemy tina
has no redeeming virtues" The bai
tie will then be deci5i,e, and the VII
tory complete.-Ojering.

MOUNT Ho0D.-This is the great
snow peak of Oregon, its Shasta. its
Rainier, and its Mont Blanc Lying
off twenty or thirty miles south of the
river, in its passage through the noun
tains, it towers high above all its tel-
lows, and seen, now through their
gorges, and again at the end of appar-
ent long plains, leading up to it from
the river Most magnificent views of
it are obtained through nearly all the
sal up and down from Portland
That which Bierstadt has chosen for
its perpetuation on canvas, and which
is thus familiar to Eastern eyes, is the
most complete and impressive, and re-
cognized upon the steamboat. In it,
the mountain seems to rise, apart, out
from an upward-going plain, snow
covered from base to summit, oppres-
sive in its majesty, beautiful i'll form,
angelic in its whiteness-the union OF
all that is great and pure and impres
sive. Various heights are claimed fol
Hood, from 900 to Is, 500 feet, but
it is not likely it exceeds $4,000 feet
There is the best reason to believe
that the famous high peaks of Pacifi'
States have been popularity over
estimated; there are many indisputa
bly, from 10000 to $4,000 feet high
but the highest mountain on the coas
is believed to have been one measur
ed last year in the Southern California
and rising to the height of about l6
900 feet.

HORRIBLE MURDER AND SUICIDE
The Cleveland Ohio Herald Of the
9th instant contains long account OF
the murder Of his wife by an old man.
a German, named Frederick Oden, and
the suicide of the murderer, on the
previous day, at Rockport. Oden was
a farmer and market gardener, and
was in good circumstances. His mo-
tive, it appears, was jealousy. After
midnight on Wednesday one of five
children of Oden's family heard her
father and mother quarreling, when
she went to the stairway leading to
the old folks room and inquired about
the trouble. Her father made some
answer and then left the house. Or
going up to the room the daughter
found her mother weltering in hel
blood by the bedside. The bed showed
it had been occupied, but there were
no evidences of a struggle upon it
The floor of the room was covered
with blood, but no weapon was dis
covered. There was a frightlul gas
made with an axe, from Mrs. Oden'
eve to her chin, which had evidentl
| made impossible any outcrles ON he
, part. From other wounds upon he
| body, it appeared that there had bee
: fierce and some whatprolonged stru!
. gle. The woman's right arm wa
: broken by blow from the axe, an
: upon her lower limbs were sever;
5 wounds. She had been literally oil
d emboweled, also, by blows from IL
|. savage weapon in the hands OF HI
: husband. A more complete and no
+ rid butchery and mangling of the h
: man form it would be difficult to co
f ceive. After committing the foul a
y Oden fled through the woods, d
tauce of five miles, to a pond. WI
N the axe with which he killed his WI
Is he had broken the ice and gone In al
f drowned himself. He had borne t
}e character of an Industrious, tempera
e. man.

No MAN STRENGTHENED BY ALCOHOL.

No MAN STRENGTHENED BY ALCOHOL.
No man in our time has won a
higher reputation for physical strength
and muscle, than Tom Sayers, the
noted prize-fghter of England. His
chief end and aim in life was to cult
vate bodily power. A gentleman once
said to this hero of the prize-ring, "Well,
Tom, of course in training you must
take a deal of nourishment, such as
beefsteaks, Barclays stout, or pale
ale." "I'Il tell you what it is" answer
ed the boxer, "rm no tee-tetotaler, and
in my time have drank a good deal
more than is for my good; but when
I've any business to do, there is moth
ing like water and the dumb-bells."
Now that single sentence is an answer
to a ton of assertion about alcoholic
drinks as nutrients and tonics. After
Savers retired from the prize-ring, he
gave himself up to dissipation, and
soon destroyed his life by the fatal
cup. Cold water made him a Sampson,
the bottle laid him in his grave. And
whatever temporary stimulation alco-
holic drinks may produce, no man was
ever made permanently healthier Or
! stronger by their habitual use. Mil
lions have been deceived By them,
weakened and ruined National Fem
peraace Adcocate.

A SENSIBLE LANDLogD.-A cotenl-
porary says little incident transpired
some weeks ago, at one OF the Frank
fort hotels, which is worthy Of notice.
A little girl entered the bar-roonl, and
in pitifui tones, told the bar-keeper
that her mother had seut her there to
get eight cents. Eight cents 7" said
the bar-keeper. "Yes SIR "What
does your mother want of eight cents
| don't owe her anything?" "Well,"
said the child, @iather spends all his
money here for rum, and we have had
nothing to eat to-day. Mother wants
to buy loaf of bread" A loater sug-
gested to the keeper to kick the brat
out. aNo," said the bar-keeper, Il Il ].

THE PCISONS USED IN ALE, BEER, AND
PoRTER.-Cocculus Indicus, or Indian
berry, is the fruit of a plant which
grows on Malabar coast. 1t is small,
black-looking berry, of a bitter taste;
in doses of two or three grains, it will
cause nausea and prostration; in ten
or twelve doses, it will kill dogs; in
still larger doses, death, in man and
animals is produced.
Foxglove is plant possessing an
intensely bitter, nauseous taste. It'll
a violent purgative,producing languor,
giddiness and death. 1t is used on
account of the bitter and intoxication,
qualities it imparts.
Henbane is poisonous plant, re-
sembling opium. 1t produces intoxi-
cation, delirium, vomiting, feverishness
and death.
Nux Vomica is the seed of bitter
and poisonous plant. 1t is such a
dangerous poison that medical men
rarely prescribe it.
Opium, the thickened juice of the
white poppy, is the most destructive
OF narcotic poisons. 1t is freely used
In the manufacture o f intoxicating
drinks because of great intoxicating
qualities.
Oil of Vitriol is mineral poison of
an awfully bitter nature. 1t destroys
everything it comes in contact with
1t is used by brewers to increase the
heat qualities of their liquors.

the fruit and wood of which is intense

Besides the above, there are emu

The EXECUTION OF DIR. j. HUGHES.

This person, who was native of
the Isle of Man, was executed at Cleve-
land, Ohio, on Friday last, for the
murder of Tanizen Parsons, near Bed.
ford, Oh the 9Th of August last, by
shooting her through the b a d.
Hughes attempted suicide by swallow
ing morphine the evening before his
execution, but took an overdose and
became sick. Some oyster soup made
with milk also helped to neutraIize the
poison. Before he was hung he ex-
hibited great nerve, and acted and
talked as if he was going to a party
rather than to the scaffold. When he
was placed on the drop he prayed, and
afterward made a speech sixteen min
utes long, in which he arraigned the
law of capital punishment, denied the
divinity of Ehnist, avowod himself a
spiritualist, although he said he never
had connection with that body, His
speoch was extraordinarily profane.-
In closing it he said
"If | thought for a moment that
was going to birthstone and hell and
that kind of thing for all eternity,
should fear; or did I think I was 60
ing to heaven and sit there for all
eternity, and do nothing but sing, |

body but they cannot kill this SOUL
This soul scars aloft to the Great
Being that gave it being. 1t has work

cution as now before it | believe | am

land of perdition, but to the land of
progression, and while | admit the
justice of the law of Ohio, to-day l say
it is foolish and vain. And if you
should say to ME that because that
rope goes around my neck and chokes
me to death that it is going to prevent
any crime, say it is foolish and vain,
for in the condition in which John
Hughes was when he committed this
crime, no example on earth would pre-
vent any man from doing just as he did.

The Sheriff then informed the con

TEMPERANCE COLUMN.


Father, dear father, come home with me nowi
The clock in the steepie strikes one;
You said you were coming right home from he
shop,
As soon as your days work was done.
Our ire has gone out-our house is all dark
And mothers been watching since rca
With poor brother Benny so sick, in her arms,
And no one to help her hut me.
Come home come home! come bomei
Please. father, dear father, COME home,
Father. dear father, come home with me now.
The clock in the stceple strikes two;
The night has grown colder-and Benny is worse
But he has been calling for you,
Indeed, he is worse-Ma says he will die.
Perhaps before the morning shall dawn.
And sfi. 10 the message she sent me to bring
Come quickly, or he viii be gone!
Come home. 1e--.~ asome! cuFne nome
Please, father, dear father, come homsi
Father. dear father. come home with me now.
The clock in the steeple strikes three
The house is SO lonely-the hours are so long
For poor weeping mother and mel
Yes, we are alone-poor Benny 10 dead!
And gone with the angels Of light;
And these were the very last words that he said !:
"I want to kiss Papa tonight"
Come home come homei come home!
Please. father, dear father. come homei
Hear the sweet voice Of the child,
Which the nght-winds repeat ~ they roam;
Oh! who could resist the most plaintive Of pray
ers,
Please, father, dear father, come home!
