Past Praying For.

Judging from the open confession made
by our neighbor of the Circleville Herald
of last week, and which confession we pub
lish below, from that paper, the people of
Circleville must be in a deplorable state
of Generalization.
In the absence of other testimony we
are compelled to regard as true what our
neighbor says of the depravity of the Cir
clevillians. We do not like to say that
they are past praying for, but we fear
there is little hope for them. We will,
however, let the Herald speak for itself:
Some ofour saloon keepers have received
notification that they will soon be visit
ed after the manner of the raids at Wash
ington, Wilmington and Other places This
is probably hoax, originating with the
young bloods" who desire sensation far
more than a suppression Of the saloons
The Circleville saloons will ot be closed
at any period, nor as long as there is de
mand for their liquors by almost the entire
population of the city. We happen to have
| considerable information concerning the
denizens hereabouts and their habits, but
we are unable to recall more than ten OF
dozen who are strictly total abstinence
men; and 1t is anN0npleasant fact to record
that hundreds OF our women indulge in al
coholic drinks in the milder shapes. A
procession of Cfreleville people com posed
oiathose who taste not" &c, would not bc
a very imposing demonstration, numeri
cally speaking. AS to the moral question
involved, our people know whether they
ought to create this demand for the saloons
or not. They have been frequently fur
nished with instruction on this point, which
needs no repetition here. For the reason.
above Indicated we do not anticipate +;
raid on our saloons just now.
The Circleville Democrat and Watch
man takes issue in part, at least, with tn
editor of the Herald OF that place, ant
says IN reply to the above question:
we cannot agree with the Herald. in it
estimate Of the inebriety of our people,
This city will compare favorably with an,
other place of its size in Ohio for sobriet,
and morality. We have observed NOR
drunkenness and maudln debauchery il
much smaller towns, where constant ef
forts were made to suppress the sale Q
| liquor, than in Circleville.

-- BLooMINGBURG Jan. Is, 1874.
EDS. HERALD:-As many have read an
account Of tie. Kilkenny Cats eating each
Other up, and never believed the story,
fer the conviction and conversion of such
hardened unbelievers we append the fol
lowing account of how it is done, and as
this feat has been unconsciously commenc-
ed in number of churches in Favette
county, this account will enable them to
doE ii. up seientiR calIy if it should he
thought best to continue the operation
The account is as follows.
A church is divided into two parties
What one likes the other ab1ors They
feel it their duty to stick to it. In -devo-
donal meetings they pray teach others in
consistenciesY hoping that the prayers will
go to heaven, but by the way of Deacon
Rafferty's pew, just stopping moment to
give him a shaking. If one wants the
church built on the hill, the other wants
it down by the mill. If the one wants the
minister to avoid politics, the other would
like to have him7 get up on the side of the
pulpit and give three cheers for John
Browns knapsack, which is said
to be still strapped upon his back?'-
When Elder Bangs sits still in prayer, Ell
der Crank stands up to show his contempt
for such behavior. If one puts ten cents
on the plate, the other throws a dollar on
topof it, to show his abhorrexce of such
parsimony. The whole church catches the
quarrelsome spirit and begins to go down.
One half Of the choir eats up the other
half. The pew devours the pulpit, and the
pulpit swallows the pew. The session
take down the trustees. and the trustees
masticate the session. The Sunday school
and sewing society show their teeth and
run out their claws, and get their backs up,
and spit fire. And church councils assem-
bleto stop the quarrel, and cry ''scat! scat
scat'' to the Infamous howlers. But the
claws go on with their work, till there
stands the old church by the wayside-
windowIess and forsaken. Nothing more
than monument to the memory of the
dead ecclesiastical cats of Kilkenny -.
