Debauchery.-Som drunken fool tho
next morning after election, having passed
the liyclong night in a jubilant debauch
over the Democratic victory in the
election Of the beer guzzling ticket, APP
piled to our town pumps for a supply of
water to qucneh his raging thirst occa-
stoned by an overdose of benzine whisky,
better known as "sure-shot" or "forty-
rod" Being too drunk and besotted to
work the handle, and utterly unable in his
idiotic felicity to get ga drop OF water to
cool his parched tongue, being tormented
in this Aame"--in the inability of his
beastifed intellect came to the sage con-
clusion that the we'll must be dead.
Hereupon, exclaiming with horror depict
cd on his bloated face and bleared eyes,
Dead as a smoked herring, by -" and
suiting his actions to his words, he tore an
old Grape mourning weed from his rum
battered hat and draped the pump in
mourning.
Thus may we account for the Grape
found on our town pumps the next morn :
ing after election, and as suita BILE
adjunct, we would suggest to our lady
crusaders to sing before the saloons and
other haunts of this grade OF Democracy,
the old, well-known spiritual song, with
the chorus of
ing,
Oh, there will be mourning at the judgment
seat of Christ"

BATTLE.HyMN OF THE wOMEN'S
CRUSADE.
BY REV. WILLIAM HUNTER, DID.


The light of truth is breaking
On the mountain tops it CLEANS;
Let it flash along our valleys,
Let it glitter on our streams,
Till all our land awakens
In its flush of golden beams.
Our God is marching oil.
Chorus: Glory, glory, halleluia etc.
With purpose strong and steady,
In the Great Jehovah's name,
We rise to snatch our kindred
From the depths of woe and shame;
And the jubilee OF freedom
To the slaves of sin proclaim.
Our God is marching on.
From mornings early watches
Till the setting Of the sun
We will never flag nor falter
In the work we have begun,
Till the forts have all surrendered,
And the victory is won.
Our God is marching on.
We WELD no carnal weapon,
And we hurl no fiery dart;
But with words of love and reason
We are sure to win the heart,
And persuade the poor transgressor
TO prefer the better part.
Our God is marching on.
When dawns the day OF terror
And the awful trumpet's sound
Shall waken up the sleepcrs
From beneath the quaking ground,
May no blood of fallen brothers
On our startled souls be found
Our God is marching on.
Our strength is in Jehovah,
And our cause Is in his care
With Almighty arms to hcip us,
We have faith to do and dare,
While confding in the promise
That the Lord will answer prayer.
Our God is marching on.
