The Old Law.

desire to call attention to an old Tenn
perance Law, that has long existed upon
the Statute Book of all Christian nations.
1t is true that human tradition has well
nigh covered it up, and that even some men
who make profession Of the Christian name,
have lost sight Of it; yet | have never
heard Of its repeal, or that it is Of less
binding force then when it came fresh from
the mind that framed it, or the hand that
penued it. 1t was first promulgated about
the year G26, B, O., and is to be found in
Habakuks reports, IA book | am sorry tc
say not often found in the libraries Of the
legal proiession,) chapter second, section
fifteen, and reads thus I" Woe unto him
that giveth his neighbor drink, that puttesl
thy bottle to him and makest him drunke er
also, that thou mayst look on their naked
ness This statute lifts its warning yoict
against the traffic in intoxicating liquors
whether at wholesale or retail, by personi
in the church or out Of it. 1t condemns
even the giving Of the accursed thing, auC
is, consequently, strongly opposed to th'
pernicious practice of standing treat,
which so curses American society, ant
makes drunkards of SO many.
| would say to its yiolators that the in
telligence that framed the law will see t.
its execution, and though he may seem SLOW
about it, it is written though tho visiol
tarry, "At the end it shall speak and no
lie though it tarry, wait for it, because i
will surely come, and will not tarry.'-
When IL does come, and your dead AM
damned victims rise in judgment agains
you, you cannot truthiully say, Shake no
thy CORY locks at me, thou canst not say
did it,"

Thirty Reasons.

The late David Paul Brown, not long be.
fore his death, made an argument in favor
of prohibiting the sale Of ardent spirits, in
which he most completely demolished all
constitutional and financial objections,
and gave the following thirty reasons why
intoxicating liquors should be prohibited
by law.
Mr.. Brown asks all to join in the practi-
cal enforcement of the doctrine, that the sale
of intoxicating drinks as a beverage should
be prohibited by law, because:
They deprive men of their reason for the
time being.
2-'rhey despoil men of their highest intel
lectual strength.
3-They foster and encourage every species
Of immortality
i-They bar the progress Of civilization and
religion.
5-They destroy the peace of families.
6--Ihey reduce to poverty yirtuous wives
and children
7-rhey cause thousands Of murders.
s-rhey preyental reformation ofcharacter.
9-They render abortiye the strongest rcs0-
lutions.
lO-Tbe millions Of property expended in
them are lost
ll-They cause the majority of cases Of in
sanity.
l2-They destroy both the body and the soul.
l3-Ihey burden sober people with millions
Of paupers
l4-rhey cause immense expenditures to pre-
vent crime.
l5-They cause sober people immense sums
in charity
l6--Tbey burden the country with enormous
crime.

was ashamed, and put bis name to the
pledge. Then he went to his wagon, aud
taking out jug Of whiskey, smashed it on
the pavement in front Of the saloon. (This
incident was related by Mrs. D. herself
at the mass meeting last EVENING" This
same Mr.. Il, when in the army, and
intoxicated, was robbed Of $3.50 After
this he abstained from drink for three years,
but in an evil hour was tempted aud fell.
God pity all such He now gives evidence
Of having become Christian man.
The women are now doing picket duty
throwing their pickets around the saloons,
and taking the names Of all the visitors
they possibly can. In that way many are
saved from their cups, aud numerous sig
natures obtained to the pledge, of the very
class that most need it. This plan relieves
many from duty for day or two, as but
one company sends out pickets one day,
another the next, and so on But many
who are not called out, and yet feel that
they cannot remain idle or Indifferent, vol.
UNFAIRLY 20 out and join in this picket
service.
The very bricks, indeed, seem eloquent
with prayer and song, where the devoted
women have so often stood or kueeled 10
front Of these saloons. Such is the religious
feeling here that all strangers testify alike
to the deep solemnity that seems to pervade
the very atmosphere the moment they leave
the cars at the depot. Every group on the
street testifes to the presence Of the Holy
Spirit, and the universal, exclamation is,
that it seems like the Millennial Day

Christ and the Children.

Christ wasn't stiff, stark censor, from
whom children ran away. He would never
have made you think of deacon never.
Once he was talking to grown folks, and in
the crowd were women with babes in their
arms. When they heard the minister, what
was the impulse What is the impulse gen.
orally when people hear the minister ?
Anything but sense of personal influence
and running to him. But these women,
with their worlds in their arms, said: E" II
my little one could only be touched by
him." And they came up, and the disciples,
models of propriety, said Look here,
now, 60 awayihe is talking to grown folks.
But the children didn't cry and run away
but nestled near him. Not one in ten thou
sand children would ordinarily, In a strange
and boisterous crowd, allow a strange mar
to take him up, but took those up in his
arms and put his hands on them and blessed
them, and don't doubt that he kissed every
one of them. He was divine, aud that wai
divine. - Beecher.

Not all over with Him.


A young man was fishing from a raft
which was floating in deep water. lthap'
pened that one Of the logs, which should
have been fastened with a staple TO the
chain that bound them all together, was
loose as he stepped upon it, it rolled over
aud let him in; the weight of his body
opened passage between the logs, and the
slime on their surface caused them to sip
from bis grasp, and he fell through, the
logs closing above him.
There we're but few persons about, but
proyidentially, one man saw the accident.
Selling the boat hook, he ran to the raft,
wedged the logs apart, and watching when
the body should rise, drew out the frightened
angler, and placed him in safety. The whole
affair had happened so quickly, that little
damage was done. After shaking himself,
and resting little, the young fellow was
able to walk home without help
On the following day, feeling far from
well, be stayed at home, and then sent po-
lite note to his preserver, asking that be

readily went. Shaking hands withhi the
young man said " have sent for you Mr.

The churches held seasons Of fasting and
prayer, usually, before the signs Of revival
began to show themselves. They we're held
in view of the low state Of picty in the
church, and to seek an outpouriug of the
Spirit. Confessions were made by indiyid-
uals to one another, and by the whole church
to God, and there was q solemn renewal Of
covenant VOWS. There was very little extra
preaching, but frequent meetings for prayer
and praise. Would it not be well for us at
this time, when there is SO general dearth
among the churches Of this State, to return
to some of those old ways, and see if the
windows Of heaven will not be again opened
unto us2 c.

BONNET AND HAT TRIMMINGS.

BONNET AND HAT TRIMMINGS.
As general rule, the hats are this sea-
son all trimmed directly at the back and
front with immense boquets of flowers, and
it is quite the exception to see them trim
med at the side. There is q conspicuous
absence Of drapery, which was formerly so
elaborate; and the vines, instead Of trailing
down the back of the hats, are brought
round the front and over the crown.
Another feature in vines is that they are
laden down with flowers in punches, and do
not taper off, as was the case last year.
Beaded hats and beaded bonnets seem to be
generally in favor, this spring, and the alb
sence Of strings is noticeable. In the place
Of large roses and other large flowers, We
are to have fine flowers, such as daisies, vi
olets, lilies Of the valley aud mignonette.
| Ornaments are not SO much in favor as last
yenr, and are used more for children and
misses than for ladies. Prominent among
the new colors which attract so much atten-
ton is the beautiful water color and many
shades of ecru. The only thing now in
bonnet trimmings is the beaded lace and the
white crepe iisse ruchiDg, both Of which
are very effective.
THE STYLE OF DRESSES
has not greatly changed from those of last
season. The front aud backs Of the skirt
are still as unlike as possible in trimming
aud frequently 10 color. Fine plating is
employed more often than any other kind Of
ornament, and is used with great profusion.
Walking dresses are made Of sensible
length, house dresses little longer, and the
trains of evening dresses extend as far as
the patience of ones husband or ones
credit, will allow The sleeves worn, this
season, are very pretty in form they are
usually small and very nearly straight from
shoulder to wrist all appearance Of stiff
ness is removed by the deep trimming
around the lower part, which usually simu-
lates that Of the skirt, and extends nearly
to the elbow. The ugly Medici puff, with
which the world Of millinery was threat
ened, has not made its appearance. As
the sleeve is usually rather short, the un-
derseeye or cuff worn with it is neces-
sarily, more elaborately ornamented than
those worn heretofore. Basques are almost
T the only wear, the effort to introduce round
waists not having yet succeeded and those
shown, this year, are very elegant in design
and entirely different from any seen before.
Ruffs, both in the material of the dress aud
in lace, are still fashionable, notwithstand-
ing the reaction against them which seemed
! imminent.
