LEGATION Of
Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1867-04-26

The German citizens of Muscatine,
Iowa, are at present greatly exercised over
a disturbance which took place in the Ger
man Evangelical Chuch of that city. on
Sunday evening, the 18th. The Rev VIM.
Kempmeir, pastor, took occasion to de-
nounce certain members of the congrega-
ton for having taken part in a theatrical
performance under the patronage of the
Turnveren Society. His remarks were so
offensive that an attempt was made TO
drag him from the pulpit, but was prevent
ed by the more considerate portion of the
congregation. The reverend gentleman
has received warning to leave town
and has sought the protection of the au-
thorities.
"A sermon was preached in New York
on Sunday last, by the Rev. Mr. Blanchard,
on the subject of amusements, during
which he stated that man needed recrea-
ton in order to develop his spiritual nature,
and that II was better for the church to take
charge of these recreations than for the
devil to have them in his hands. Many a
young man would have been saved from
perdition if there had been proper places
of amusement where he could have in
dulged in game of billiards, chess, &c,
and not been afraid or ashamed to take his
mother or sisters with him. The speaker
encouraged the formation of "art clubs"
and a cultivation of the love of music. He
also advocated dancing" at the proper time
and in the proper place.

The SPIROMETER-measur the actual
bulk of respiged air in any individual pair
of lungs-has shown that this measure, as
might be supposed, is very good general
all respects, even when the variation is not
very perceptible in other ways. A medi-
cal reviewer in q late publication testifies
that " in examining for insurance persons
apparently robust, we have found that
none of those who habittially drink spirits
between meals, even in such moderation
as to be considered strictly temperate, can
blow up the spirometer to their due figure.
And in several instances of really intemper-
ate persons, this mode of operation has
led to the detection of their secret.
