EVERYBODY REJOICING.

The Temperance excursion from Day
ton to Baxter's Grove, near this city,
on the cath, was decided success
About four hundred Of the good, sub
stantial, law abing, order loving citizens
of Dayton, fearless of public opinion,
determined to advocate justice from
man to man, met in Baxter's Grove to
ratify in christian spirit the works Of
the temperance ladies and gentlemen of
Richmond which have been going on in
our midst for months.
Rev. j. v. r. Miller welcomed them
to our State and city in neat christian
speech, assuring them that they would
have our corporation in all their labors
to eradicate the murderous evil from the
center to the very borders of their
State.
There were several short speeches by
members of the Temperance orders Of
Dayton, urging us to hold on to the
light already given us. To which re-
sponses were made by Shinn, Miller
and Wooton, setting forth our views on
Temperance, and urging our friends Of
Dayton to go not in their own strength,
hut to rely on the all powerful arm Of
God, and He, through them, would eff.

Resolutions were passed by those
present, denouncing in the strongest
terms the dance which was held on .
portion of the ground as being unchris-
tian, and not in accordance with the
wishes of the temperance ladies and
gentlemen who organized the excursion.
AT i've o'clock they all returned to
Dayton, leaving as their testimony that
the work should 60 on in q more ag-
gressive manner until Prohibition
should be inscribed on the banner of
every State.
During the afternoon there was ban.
ner presented by the ladies of Dayton
to the ladies of Richmond in honor of
their untiring energy, and fearlessness
in entering saloons, and laboring in va
rious ways with those who are Of intem.
perate habits.
They were requested to hang the ban
ner in the Council Chamber, where it is
to remain SO long as the five hundred
dollar ordinance is in force in our city.
And we humbly trust that instead Of re,
pealing that, that other and more strin-
gent laws may be passed until there is
no man who can sell whisky in our
midst; and through the help of God
We feel that such will be the final re-

Once more there is a project on foot
in England for bringing about reform
in spelling, aud the aid of the Govern
ment has been invoked to secure a spell
ling according to pronunciation. Again
we must aver that such change is
neither possible nor desirable. Spelling
and pronunciation are, or should be, es-
sentially different things: the, first
should be governed as far as possible
by the etymologies, in order that the
origin of words may be remembered
and their true meaning preserved; while
pronunciation is a matter of fashion and
is continually changing. There never
was, to our knowledge, a language pro-
nounced as it was spelled: and proba-
bly, there never will be.-[N. Y. Tri-

for preparing it for use is somewhat complex
requiring . numerous collection of chemical
