If the Church of our land would
take hold Of the temperance reform
with the serious consideration and
the unhagging purpose which the
euormity of the drinking evil de-
mands, it would not require many
generations TO put the brand Of Cain
on the monster who is desolating our
homes, degrading society, and i'm
perilling government. The Church
has power of setting this evil in
startling colors before the world, has
the power under God to arraign the
traffic at the bar Of moral sentiment
that will condemn it to death, and
has the wisdom under God to devise
ways for its execution. Let her no
longer stand aloof from what is at
once her great privilege, and her
great responsibility to society and
the world.

to the vessels after the beginning Of
the movement to reach the mainland,
but from all that can be gathered it
seems probable that they must num-

The SituatiOu.

The possibility of Republican success has
become strong probability. All the indica.
tions are that every state heretofore classed
as doubtful, with the exception of North
Carolina, still doubtful, has cast its electoral
vote for Hayes, Of the Pacific states there
can be no doubt. South Carolina is certainly
for Hayes, and good judges unite in placing
Louisiana in the Republican column. All of
the advices from the Florida Republicans are
of the same cheering tenor. Apparently Gov.
Hayes has 1856 electoral votes. exactly the
number necessary to his choice.
While we do not claim the election of Gov.
Hayes as absolutely certain, we regard it as
highly probable. A stronger claim might be
justified, but we prefer to wait. The Demo-
Gratis naturally dislike to concede Republl-
can triumph, but they have lost all conf
dence, and nearly all hope. The opinion
that Hayes is elected is very general through
out the country, and is apparently justified
by the fact.
