THE TEMPERANCE CRUSADE.

For several years past we have been
convinced that if intemperance was ever
stopped it would have to be done by the
women. The great temperance crusade
by the women is being carried on in
nearly every town in central Ohio, and
it is rapidly spreading all over the country.
The daily papers have able correspond
ents in the field of action, and the sub
iect occupies from six to twelve columns
every day.
A man named Dunn, in Hillsborough
got Judge Stafford to grant an injunction
against the women for praying in front of
his drug store. A motion to dissolve the
injunction was argued before Judge
Steele, successor to Judge Stafford last
week, and the injunction was dissolved
on technical grounds, the question on
the merits not being touched. Dunn ap-
pealed.
1t is imprudent for the liquor sellers
to resort to the law. They have violated
the laws both of God and the common
wealth, and if they invoke the law it will
grind them to powder.

ACCOUNTING.

The city papers are in another agony,
fearing that some favors may be shown
the country press. We have never
whined or complained because our paper
cannot go to our subscribers free. True,
it looks little like injustice for our sub
scribers who get their papers at the
Postoffice in jackson, to have to pay as
Tribune, which is twice the weight of the
STANDARD, and is carried in the mails
from 700 to 800 miles
The Cincinnati Times merely says:
at is probable that the franking priv
ilege will be returned to Pub. Docs,
seeds from the Agricultural Department,
newspaper exchanges and weekly news
papers in thescounties where printed.
Our old friend Murat Halstead, of the
Cincinnati Commercial says:
'The Representatives of the rural
roosters, who are so furiously virtuous
about the salary grab, are clamoring in
Congress for the restoration of the frank
ing privilege, to include the transporta-
ton of weekly newspapers free in the
mails, within the counties where they
are published We presume the misera-
BILE system of swindling will be reinau-
gurated 1t is the method by which the
| low rascals who assumed to be Mortified
at the advance of Congressional salaries,
propose to compensate themselves. We
are to save at the spigot, the scrap of
Congressional salary, and pour out at the
bunghole by distributing thousands of
newspapers without charge, and loading
the mails with dead-head matter. OF
| , h., fata Of hi pan M
endure, for there is something in the
nature of economizing in it.
In order to show who is liar and a
Glow rascal" we give the following, which
is the concluding portion of a card pub
lished by Hon. P. B. Buell., of the Ohio
Senate:
Having appealed to Mr.. Halstead, in
good faith, for such an explanation as he
was in honor bound to make, which he
declines to do, l have now only to pro-
nounce his action in the matter that of a
liar and a coward-holding myself re.
sponsible to him. 'P. B. BUELL..
| The virtuous Gazette talks thus
cit is evident that the franking priv
ilege is to be restored. Like all abuses
it takes the shape of benevolence. There
is large stock of documents ON hand
which the people are longing for, although
valuing them too lightly to pay for car
rying them. The distribution of seeds
also demands franking. These are to bt
provided for, and the country press is tC
be enlisted in the abuse by free carrying
in the mails. The Congressman assume
also that something is due them for dis
gorging their back pay and cutting of
the increase of their salaries. So th'
franking abuse is to be restored; no
, fully at first. but in such way and ol
such grounds that the rest will follow.
The Gazette intimates that the countr.
press can be bought for five cents pc
quarter, in the way of postage. Perhap
: the Gazette had better confne its atten
ton to the charge made by Halstead
that its influence was purchased for $50
! by the liquor sellers.

Twenty-nine years ago we were engag-
ed in making sugar on the lands of John
c. Davis, mile north of Jefferson Fur
mace. The sugar naples were on avery
steep hillside. facing the north. We had
been afflicted for many months with what
was supposed to be heart disease, but
having become little better, we began
to have some hopes of living. We were
taking the National Era, an anti-slavery
paper published at Washington City by
Gamaliel Bailey jr., with Amos A. Phelps
and John G. Whittier corresponding
editors On delightful sugar day, -
with the innocent song of the blue-bird
in the distance, and all nature reviving,
we took our Era to read and there first
saw "a Dream of Summer" We then
thought that we never had read anythin g
more touchingly beautiful. We publish
it every spring.
We write this on aturday, Feb. 2lst
The thermometer marks 6S, the blue
birds and robbins are singing, and here
is "a Dream of Summer" by John G.
Whittier:
Bland as the morning breath of June
The Southwest breeZeS play;
And through its haze, the winter noon
Seems warm as summers day.
The snow-plumed angel of the North
| Has dropped his icy spear;
Again the mOSSy earth looks forth,
Again the streams gush clear.
| The fox his Hillside cell forsakes,
| The muskTat leaves his nook,
The blue-bird in the meadow brakes
| Is singing with the brook.
| 'Bear up, o, Mother NatureE cry,
| Bird, breeze and streamlet free,
| "Our winter voices prophesy
| OF summer days to thee!
| So, in those winters of the soul,
| By bitter blasts and drear,
Ger swept from memOry'S frozen pole,
| Will sunny days appear.
| Reviving hope and faith they show
| The soul its living powers,
| And how beneath the winters snow
| Lie germs of summer flowers.
| The night is mother of the day,
| The winter of the spring;
And ever upon old decay
| The greeneSt MOSES cling.
| Behind the cloud the sunlight Turks,
| Through showers the Sunbeams fall;
For God, who loveth all His Works,
| Has left His hope with all.
