OUR SABBATH SCHOOLS.
A Hard Hit At Ungodly Teachers.

Hard HIT At UngOdly Teachers.
Mr.. EDITOR You truly merit tho
gratitude Of all for permitting those in the
interest Of the Sabbath School canse, 10
appear in your columns. hope that tho
Sunday School convention will have .
good effect on our city; and above all that
our schools will improve. Yes, that We
may have better school officers. Before
we can expect God to bless our Sunday
Schools we must have men Of God, not bad
men, at the head. 1t: seems to me that
some Of the worst men in the land are
those who, while they profess to be men
and women Of God, are sinful and ungodly.
Such may succeed in deceiving men,
women and children, yet they cannot de-
ceive Cod. Some Of the worst men and
women in our land are Sabbath School
workers, especially on Sunday. We msy
find in Cairo, Sunday School teachers and
takers who are profans, desecrate the holy
Sabbath, drink, and visit the lowest dens
Of sin. They talk long and loud TO our
children and shed tears without number,
and are as destitute Of the love Of Christ
as q stone. Such sre hypocritss, and should
be a. certain Of the execration Of good
men as they are Of the punishment OF
Heaven. Our children should be kept out
Of such schools.
Our teachers should be men VI
God, men and women who know
experimentally what the love Of Christ 10.
Tho doon Of our Sunday schools better DO
closed than TO lie, such persons instruct our
children.
With such teachers, dear friends, what
can We do? Such men and women are
not called 10 the work. The truth is,
many do it for popularity. They put on
long faces in church, but when out they
forget II all. God give Us men and women
who love Him. Cairo needs reform. Shall
We have il?
We must have II, and that soon. God
keep the hypocritc out Of our Sunday
schools. They may not think they are
known, but they are, and by all who know
them, despised. In the hope that our
Sunday schools in Cairo will net see the
presence Of such again, pray God to give
us men who love hi. glorious and saving
gospel. Youn, A FATHER.
The SBivERiSo SKAsoS.-The loss to
the laboring classes Of the United States
caused by fever and sgue, has been esti-
mated at upwards Of two millions Of dol
lars per annum. Whole settlements are
sometimes prostrsted by tho disease, and |
il 10 regarded in some localities as one Of |
those visitations Of Providence which |
csnno, be avoided. This Is Q mistake. As |
certainly a. any OF the evils which are in. |,
vited by neglect may be forestsllled by |
procau,on, so certainly may An attack Of |
intermittent Tor remittent) fever be pre- |
vented by invigoraiing the system with
Ho.,e,tcr's Stomach Bi,ters, in advance
Of the season At which this malady pre-
walls. Prevention, il il needless TO say,
is the wises, policy; but 1t il consoling To !
know that where time has not been thus |
taken by TIE foreloek, and the paroxysms |
have actually commenced, COM |,
ple,c cure may, in all cases, be rapidly |
effected by the use Of this powerful vege-
table tonic. The reputation Of the Bi,,ers
as specific for dyspepsia, liver complaint,
constipation and nervous debility, has in
some measure thrown into the shade its
merit, a. preventive and cure Of other
ailments, but all who have ever taken u,
either as a protection against or q remedy
for malarious fevers, will admit tina, il
surpasses in efficiency all the so.called
specifies Including quininel, usually pre-.
scribcd for these malsdies, while it is at
the same time entirely harmless and de-
cidedly palstable. sel2eod-daw
