Cera,ea,s1h %. Butler.


Mr.. Cavanaagh is noted for carrying his
wits with him. Occasionally hs strikes
edges with his fellow public servants at
washington, and rarely comes Of second
best In instance the following from the
Washington letter OF r. E. F. in the Herald:
Personally, like many others, incline
"much to like Cavanangh. He sticks up
manfully for Montana. and in discussion
''or conversation never allows the Territory
ITO suffer by comparison with any other.
1.-THE other day he joked Chaves, the light
ming little Republican Delegate from New
/" Mexico. about his Territory. Why, an

4u. The following has the kccncr favor
when It is remembered that Butler and Cav.
aaaugh both hail from tho suburbs of Bos-
ton, and that before Butler got that sudden
political conversion which irremedi.bly
twisted his optics. he and Cav.naush worked
shoulder. to shoulder in maninul.,ine the

would a legislative enactmentngains sur
eide; and prohibitory laws, restraining
the traffic in intoxicating beverages
have been found impotant and impracti
cable. Laws are dead letter upon our
books unless they are, respected and en-
forced, and while one party will not re-
spect nor the other enforce, why need we
look 10 law for add When those Who
ciamor loudest md most sehement'y Tor
law will not enforce i, when they get it,
then, We have reason to believe that even
they have little confidence in their utility
o. efficiency.
On the whole, if we would check this
evil we must check itnass we would any
other moral, physical or social evil
That it is an evil, no sane person will de
nv, and that it annually carries thou
sands and tens of thousands TO a drunk
arts grave, a FAC, capable of mathe-
NAUTICAL demonstration. We sometimes
call it growing evil, but this is doubt
less erroneous, since sacred history gives
us m authentic account of a time when
ono eighth of tho whole human family
lay drunk upon the ground. and we can
scarcely conceive that intemperance has
proportionateIy increased with the ,popu'
lation from that day to tho present.
But there is vastly too much of it at this
time, and there is work for heads, hearts
and hands in every town and hamlet
Heads can devise. hearts can approach
with kindness, and hands can relieve TEN
portal distress.
The want of employment of mind
and body. and the sad want of schools
and colleges in our midst to absorb the
leisure hours, and cultivate the higher
powers of man, are among the very
many causes Of intemperance. Hence
Tue importance, Of better system, and
consequently Of better society, All see
it, all feel it and know right well the i'm

If we would protect socie,y-if We
would protect our children from the evils

useful aud interesting employment and

make our own actions practical ex-

TEMPERANCE.


For the last fifty years this subject
has attracted the attention and engaged
tae efforts of christians and philanthro-
pists throughout this country, though
but little was said or done except in pri-
waite circles until about fifteen years after
the first efforts we:e made. Then com
menced the formation of Temperance 80
cieties. At that time New Rum was as
free in the backwoods of New England
stores, as a cheap article OF smoking TO
bacco now is IA modern saloons, and ev
cry little bargain between the farmer aud
his grocer, WAS sealed with a DRAM
Then, too, the old fashioned jecanter
graced or disgraced the mantle piece,
the parIOr cupboard or table, of nearly
every household. Here then Was a
great social evil, deep rooted and of lonI
and vigorous growth, with which the
early reformers had most earnestly to
contend. But they were earnest, candid
men, and facts and moral suasion,"
were their only weapons of warfare
With these they made rapid progress.
and the Washingtonians, in their day.
did more to mitigate the evils of intern
Perance, and resist the wide spreading
rayages, thaa all the politsca temperance
feformers ever have done or ever will do.
The experiment has been demonstrated,
that no political party can ever succeed
with Only this plank for platform
Quite as futile has been the Efforts of
another peculiar set of reformers who
long and loudly, from pulpit and rostrum
Numbered forth dsmnation at the heads
of liquor dealers and every body else
whose views and actions did not happen
to correspond with their own. While
yet another set, a remnant of tie old
standard bearers, with many followers,
still class it with other social and moral
evils, and claim that the remedy is in
kind words and good examples.
That the world has gone sadly astrsy,
physically, morally and rsligiousIy, doc.
tors of physic, doctors of divinity and
moral philosophers have long since told
US; and that it will continue 10 90 astray
ill the great day of retribution shall
come, is fact which seems to he casual
observ r, more than probable. But this
fact relieves US from no duty, but only
argues the greater necessity for learning
and performing that duty. We can
never comprehend all there may be in
science, morals, religion or politics, but
our aim should be TO climb as high in
the scale of being as may be in our pow
er, and TO this end We should direct every
energy of both mind and body. So in
SOCIAL life, the fact that an evil can not be
eradicated. is no reason why we should
not make an attempt to mitigate it,
Strike at the root of it, if possible, and
strike sure aud strong, Lut think not to
do all the work alone, nor to accomplish
great results with single effort.
Sometimes we look for statute laws
and pencil codes, and we talk of, the
strong arm and the majesty Of laws, and
while they arc potent and efficient in
4, many cases, they are weak and inefficient
in others. Laws sgainst inseinpersDee
have no more effect TO restrain II, than
