A Sad Picture.

The Gallipolis Bulletin says that
there are twenty public houses OF
prostitution in Gallipolis, besides a
number of private houses of assig-
nation, and that these latter are
principally sustained by married
men. Now when We consider that
Gallipolis is only about twice as large
as Jackson, this picture becomes q
frightfuD one. Some fourteen years
ago, when we were engaged at Port
land. we could always know a young
man who resided at Gallipolis, as
they all, who stopped at Portland,
smoked, drank whisky and used pro-
fame language. These are now the
men who are on the active stage of
life in that city. And the papers of
the place almost every week speak
of burglaries, thefts, assaults and
RIGHTEOUSNESS as being prevalent.
What is to be the end of all this,
should surely engross the prayerfnl
contemplation of the Christian por-
tion of that city.-Jdckson STANDARD.
Between the two-the "Bulletin"
and the "Standard" d"-our city will
soon have as bad a reputation as
New Orleens had, some years ago,
when it was said ofit-"No one ever
went to Heaven through New Or
leans" But we think the picture is
overdrawn-that we are in fact no
worse than our neighbors. Still, as
the aforesaid editors are both ''mar-
ried men," and as that class, accord
ing to the Bulletin" seem to be
well smixed up" in this business,
their means of information may be
better than ours, and their testimony
more accurate. We don't pretend
to know what the truth is, as we
have not made the subject a speciali-
ty. But fit be as bad as represen-
ted, then these editors should organ
ize for reformation, and we rather
prefer the plan of the Standard
"prayeTM contemplation"-to that
of the Bulletin '-"Guyascutus
A reformation by the STANDARD
plan would be permanent, while one
by the plan of the Bulletin" would
only be temporary. Let the work
be commenced at once-the editor of
the STANDARD to open the services
and first, let your petitions be
most fervent for the "married men"
they are a hard set, it appears,
and must needs have special grace to
save them.
