THE END.

The year was ominously begun, and 1t closes
still more ominously. If people will persist in
unbelief and self-security they are without
excuse. Everything is full of warning, earth,
air. sea- sky, the affairs of nations, and the very
stones and timbers of mems dwellings, night
and day, with ever-increasing portent, are cry
ing out to every one that hath ears TO hear, or
eyes to see, or sensibilities to feel that ths end
of all things is at hand" Some flatter them
selves that all is well; that Napoleon is now
sffectually put out of the way, as the suspected
Antichrist that the Pope is being humbled that
Protestant arms are taking possession of the
world; that freedom is on the ascendant; that
mans day of glorious earthly triumph and
blessedness is dawning; and that these old
predictions of coming catastrophe are no longer
to be regarded Deluded people! The great
doctrines of prophecy are not affected by what
may be Napoleons fate. The Antichrist Is not
manifested till after Christ's waiting people are
"caught up to meet the Lord in the heaven"
"Then shall that wicked be revealed" Whether
it be Napoleon, or some one else, remains to be
seen. Meanwhile, Gods word forewarns of
wars and rumors of wars, of distress of nations
with perplexity, of strange and mighty over
turnings and runnings to and fro, of startling
phenomena In the heavens and agitations In
earth, air, and seas, of outbreaking wickedness
and perilous times, of waning faith and growing
iniquity, as the signs and tokens of the oncom-
ing judgment. Are these not here ? Behold,
ye despisers, and wonder, and repent!-Pro-
ghetto Times .r
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1870-12-17

TO whom she has, during the day, presented
a DAM, rous temptation, and rejoiced over it
in the legree Of its magnitude.
o vuman woman Is il not about time
that his thing were stopped? Have you q
husband, brother, q son? Are they stronger
tbsu their neighbors who have, one after
another, dropped into the graves of drunk
ards Look around you and see the desola-
tions that drink has wrought among your
acquaintances, and then decide whether you
have right to place temptation in any mans
way, or do aught to make a social custom
respectable which leads hundreds of thou
sands of men into bondage and death. Why
must the bottle come out everywhere? Why
can there not be festal occasion without
this'vulgar guzzling of strong drink?
Woman, there are some things that you
can do, and this is one; you can make drink
ing unpopular and disgraceful among the
young. You can utterly discountenance all
drinking in your own house, and you can
hold IN suspicion every young man who
touches the cup. You know that no young
man who drinks can safely be trusted with
the happiness of any woman, and that he is
as unfit as a man can be for woman's society.
Have this understood, that every young man
| who drinks is socially prescribed Bring up
your children to regard drinking as not only
dangerous but disgraceful. Place tempta-
| ton in no mans way. If men will
make beasts of themselves let them do it in
other society than yours. If your mercenary
husbands treat their customers from private
stores kept in their counting-rooms, shame
them into decency by your regard for the
honor of your home. Recogize the living,
terrible fact that wine has always been, and
is to-day, the curse of your sex; that it steals
the hearts of men away from you, that it
dries up your prosperity, that it endangers
your safety, that it can only bring you evil.
If social custom compels you to present wine
at your feasts, rebel against it, and make a
social custom in the interests of virtue aud
purity. The matter is very much in your
own hands. The women of the country, in
what is called polite society, can do more to
make the nation temperate than all the legis-
lators and tumultuous reformers that are
struggling and blundering in their efforts to
this end.

''Ncthing TO do !" in this world OF ours,
Where weeds spring up with fairest flowers,
Where smiles have only a fitful play,
Where hearts are breaking every day
Nothing to do !" thou Christian soul,
Wrapping thee round in thy selfish stole;
OF with the garments Of sloth and sin,
Christ the Lord hath kingdom to win.
Nothing to dol" There are prayers to lay
On the altar of incense, day by day; la
There are foes to meet within and without,
There is error to conquer, strong and stout.
Nothing to dol" There are minds to teach
The simplest form of Christian speech;
There are hearts to lure with loving vile
From the grimmest haunts of sins de6le.
"Nothing to dol" There are lambs to feed,
The precious hope of the Church's need
Strength to be borne to the weak and faint,
vigils TO keep with the doubling saint.
Nothing to dol" and thy Saviour said,
"Follow thou me in the path 1 tread"
Lord, lend Thy help the journey through.
