DEATH.
BY REV. A. J. RYAN, (MoISA.)
Out Of the shadow Of sadness,
Into the sunshine Of gladncss,
Into the light Of the Blest-
Out Of . land very dreary,
Out Of the world Of the weary,
Into the rapture Of Rest
Out of to-day's sin and sorrow
Into blissful tomorrow,
Into day without gloom
Out Of q land filed with signing
Land Of the dead and the dying
Into land without tomb.
Out Of . life of commotion,
Tempest.swept Oft as the ocean,
Dark with the wreck drifting DER;
Into land calm and quiet;
Never 0 storm cometh nigh ii;
Never wreck on its shore.
Out Of the land in whose bowers
Perish and fade all the flowers
Out Of the land Of decay
Into the Eden where fairest
Of flow rets-and sweetest and rarest-
Never shall wither away.
Out Of the world Of the wailing,
Thronged with the anguished and ailing
Out of the world Of the sad;
Into the world that rejoices-
World Of bright visions and voices,
Into the world of the glad.
Out of life ever lornful,
Out of land very mournful,
Where in bleak exile we roam;
Into q joyland above us,
Where there's Father to love us
Into ''our Home-Sweet Home"

permitted to pursue his Hendish business,
with but little hinderance on the part Of the
christian community, beyond an occasional
remonstrance. The drunksrd fallen though
he be, Is nevertheless our brother, and we
cannot avoid our responsibility by saying
lam my brothers keeper" but on the
contrary it is our duty to endeavor by all
PROPER means to do all We can to reform
him, and restore him to decency, to family
and society. This is one Of the great OBJ
jects Of our organization. The Good Tenn
plars' principles are to mot only abstain
from what con intoxicate, but to prevail on
others to do CO.," and our secret is Ito save
the drunkard, and make waste places glad
with hope and happiness again" We
should then go to the inebriate, holding in
our right hand the olive branch Of peace,
and lifting the other towards that angel
realm musical with life and love, prayerfdlly
asking the Fathers ministeriny angels and
all the holy loved ones gone before, to look
down with compassion upon our fallen
brother, and grant him strength and resolu.
tion enough to break the chains that bound
him slave to his appetite, and to find him
with spirit sufficient to become man again,
and thereby be the means Of scattering
flowers along his pathway of life, and pre-
pairing him also to lead purer and chris
tian ike course preparatory to becoming
pillar in that living temple Of God that
knows no beginning nor ending of years,
then shall we have fulfilled our sacred duty
to our fellow mortals.

Temperance Address.

Delivered BY Olirer C. Kahler, Esq.,, on
Tuesday eueniny, l2th Of Nay, 1868, be-
fore the Order Of G.. T., IN BlOonsbur9.
WORTHY CHIEF:-Brothers and Sisters
Of Bloomsbury Lodge No. l39 I. o. of G. T.
That intemperance is the greatest moral
social and political evil, that ever afflicted
the world needs no demonstration here
The Incorporate man violates all laws both
human and divine and rushcs headlong to
distraction, uncalled for and cutting of all
prospects for eternity. There is q great
work for oil Of us to perform. A special
work, which should be done now. A work
in which every person can engage in. A
work which can never be done better than
at the present time. This great national
curse must be fought and conquered. The
power Of the strong drinking interest must
be met and battled with. The putting down
Of intemperance, and the reformation Of
the drunkard, is the object Of our organiza-
ton, and worthy cause is that in which
We are engaged in. Every person should
be found engaged in this laudable work, and
set good example by sustaining from the
use Of strong drink. How full Of hope,
then in visions Of peace, temporal and spir.
itual on earth, with the speedy triumph Of
the right, in this nineteenth centuary, then
things and mems actions would be based
upon the laws Of divine order, and the i'm
perishable principles Of universal love, JUS
tice and faternal sympathy towards each
other. Temperance, while it destroys the
worthless, constructs the better, builds wiser,
conserving the good and beautiful, grapples
with the great giant, intsmperanoe, and re-
asserts the lost independence Of man. It
demonstrates to him Immortality, and that
he is not beast. But on the contrary that
he hath been created by God upright and
q little lower than the angels" IL soasch-
,oord Is Rogrsssion. Nunderliss tie might.
test movements Of The age, and IT. destiny i
certain rictory. If by abstaining from the
use Of intoxicating drinks any Of US can
prevent one friend, or brother from becom.
ing drunkard, the sacrifice on our part
will be worthy Of the highest praise and
commendation. We should take the incbri-
ate by the hand and with warm heart,
look in his eyes and say, "brother, 60 sin
no more, be no more slave to yonr appe-
tite, but be free man, God and the angels,
and all good men desire your freedom !" and
then away down deep in the better nature
Of that person thus addressed, is something
which tells him to strive to be sober per.
son again. Il is from such slavery that We
should endeavor to save and redeem our
fellow mortal. It is not because intemper-
snce erects the gallows, and supplies il with
victims, or causes pauperism, and ills our
prisons with oonvicts, that ii undermines
the social and civil institutions Of our coun-
try, entailing misery, horrid disease and
death upon us, have I learned to hate this
evil. Il is because I now look upon man a.
having great and noble nature. Ii be.
cause that I believe that tho stamp Of Di.
vinity is about him, upon him and within
him. Il Is because in chat mystery Of mys.
tcrics the human soul arc wrapped up oelcs.

Ths soldiers and Seymour.

Seymour WAS the man who vetoed the bill
OF the New York Legislature allowing sol
diers TO vote in the field. Seymour was the
man who presided over the Chicago Conven-
ten IN 1864 and Endorsed that forever in-
famous declaration Of It's platform, that the
war was q failure and the public welfare de-
manded that there be an immediate cessa-
ton of hostilities-even while our brave boys
a, the front had their hands upon the throat
Of rebellion. Seymour was the man who re-
fused to allow men to go to Gettysburg, TO
assist our sorely pressed battalions in driving
back toe rebel invaders. lie was assured
that unless relnforcements were hurried ior>
ward cur troops were liable to be cut into
pieces, and the brave little army Of Meade
be utterly broken and roDteu. We want
men, aid Mr.. Lincoln. iou can't have
them, senlied Mr.. Seymour. until the corKrs
decide mat you are entitled to tham And
then Mr.. Seymour made speeches to his
ssliends, the peace sneaks, and draft ske-
daddlers. and Copperhead cut-throats in
New York city, rating as nothing the danger
Of tie defenders of the Union under Meade.
And il is this same Seymour who now asks
the soldiers to make him President OF the
United States, and to ignore the conqueror
Of tn1 rebellion, Ulysses S. Grant
This might be cited as specimen Of sub
lime impudence. But still further. How
were soldiers OF Democratic precnyities
treated by aeymour's New York Convention?
They went there with candidate, General
Hancock, who had distinguished himself as
a brave aud efficient officer; they demanded
his ncmination--but the rebel element that
predomiua.ed in the convention declined to
recognize the claims Of q general who had
dealt sturdy blows unon tie head ct rebel-
Ton, Hampton, and Forrest and Beaure-
gard wanted candidate who would De poPu-

Gently retired to q shelf. We believe these
soldiers went to New 7 ork with patriotic mo.
tiyes. Bat how must they feel now They
i-yere made to play second-hdd!e to conYeh-

the South bore sway and dictated the terms

rebel leaders because he had declared his
willingness 70 undo everything that be had
