GOSPEL TEMPERANCE.

The Gospel Temperance meeting in
the City Hall grows steadily in numbers
and interest. Last evening it was opened
with prayer ty DR.. Shelp. A portion of
the Scripture was read from which was
deduced the Christian duty of treating
with sympathy and kindness both the
seller and purchaser of strong drink.
Prof. Seymour urged the victim of in
temperance to exert the power God has
given him for his own deliverance, and
yet to call upon God for that aid that he
was always willing to give when man
complied with the Divine cond tons.
The Rev. Mr.. Latrobe advised all
Christians to work in this cause as they
found opportunity. No man could give
another any commission to work in this
part OF the Lords vineyard. God was
the great commissioner of his servants,
All things should be done in harmony
there should be no jealousy or contention
in this great work. We are laborers to.
gether for the good of men and should
lose sight of self.
DR.. Hicks thought we should look
charitably on all honest differences O
| opinion as to the methods of saving men
Brothers Elliott, Rapho, Fraim ant
others made short but earnest addresses
In all the speeches sinners were urge,
to come to Christ and find in him sur
friend and Saviour. Three persons aske
for prayers. A meeting was announce
for this evening, to be addressed by Pres
ident Wilson and others.

Governor Robinson has been invited to
be present at the banquet the Democra-
tic leaders are preparing for Ex-Governor
Hendricks, prior to the departure of the
latter for Europe, as noted the other
day In the Ledger Possibly the occasion
will be made even more notable by the
presence f one or two other Democratic
Governors or ex-Governors, including
Mr.. Tllden. This will make five in all.
The expectation is very general that
there will be a free interchange of views
on the part of these distinguished gentle
men with reference to the political future,
and particularly with reference to the
future policy of the Democratic party.
The expectation will not be disappoin-
ted. There is some probability, hear,
of Mr.. Tilden going to Europe also dur
ing the summer, but 1t will not be until
some weeks after Mr.. Hendricks has
taken his departure.

PLAN OF CAMHAIaN-The Command Of

Gen. Beauregard has written a letter
to the New Orleans Picayune in expla-
nation of his recent communication to
Col. Blanton Duncan, which contained
a synopsis of plan of defensive cam
paign for Turkey in her war with Rus
sis. Gen. Beauregarl says:
"My letter to Col. Duncan, covering
only two pages of manuscript, could not,
of course, contain very elaborate plan
of campaign, on so important a theatre
Of war, for armies numbering about half
a million OF men on each side. l will
add here, however, that before the be-
ginning of hostilities the Turks had in
Europe Excluding the Danube line prop
en- four defensive lines such as few
countries possess, to wit:
| 81. Along the northeastern frontier of
Roumania, from the Carpathian noun
tains, near Vegralisti, to the Sereth riv-
er; behind the latter to Galatz on the
, Danube; thence, in rear of this river, to
the Black Sea- total distance of about
$50 miles, protected almost entirely by
a mountain range and two rivers,
q. In rear OF thu broad Danube to
Chernovali, thence along the railroad to
Kurtendji, on the Black Sea, near the
line of the old Trsjan wall, whose length
was only about forty miles.
"3. The naturally strong and almost
impossible Balkan mountains. so cele
brated in the Roman wars.

LARGE MEETING AT THE TENT LAST
EVENING.

A LARGE MEETING AT THE TENT LAST
EVENING.
The interest in the temperance move
ment still continues with an abated fervor.
A larger number of people than ever be-
fore assembled at the tent last evening,
there being fully three thousand present
The number was augmented no doubt un-
der the impression that the sermon OF
Rev. Isaac NJ, Haldeman, to the NJ oral
SuasiOn Club on Sunday evening would
be sharply criticised. ~~
The meeting was opened with the usual
devotional exercises, after which MIR.
Wells, said that he had very unpleasant
subject to announce.
II was well enough for the people to
understand that the meetings at the City
Hall, had no connections with their
meetings. Whenever they wished to open
| branch MEETINGS they had enough mater
| ial to do it with. He ako said that those
who were conducting the meetings at the
| City Hall, had been trying to induce
their men TO l. ave them, and farther that
some slanderous person hat charged him
with being an infidel. He emphatically
denied it, and said that he had been a
member Of the Methodist Church for
wears, He said they were not accountable
for what Mr.. Haldeman had said neithe
| " as he for their actions; they were each
on q different basis. ,,
The other speakers were Messrs. Smith,
Fox, SammoIs, Ingrim, Greer, butcher
and Rev. U. NJ. Pegg.
some of the speakers referred to Mr.
Haldeman's sermon, one saying that he
had not frightened the temperance Peo-
Ipie, and they did not purpose allowing
him to control the meetings. One OF the
Ispeakers urged them to go on and do
right, no matt,r who condemned them
lGod weuld approve.
During the evening Mr.. Lee, announce
that the temperance picnic would bt
lin Tatnall's woods, OH Wednesday, ano
that they had been trying TO iaise money none
Some one in the audience suggested thai
; they take up a collection, which was
ldone. and handsome sum was realized
; The meeting adjourned with the singing
