the burden of a deal of press complaint recently.
If agitation of the subject leads to the adequate
representation of the financial, commercial and
agricultural interests of the several States in their
Legislatures, and in Congress great good will be
accomplished. The class legislation which makes
business for lawyers and bother for every one
else, is great hindrance to progress.-Balto. Bee

of the champions of the Temperance Alliance
commencing in the morning with the Sabbath
school, followed up in the afternoon and continued
at night, at which time the Sons and Daughters
OF Temperance Zone organization) of this place
appeared in their regaia, and numbering some
twenty members. Mr.. S. is a rapid speaker with
a ready flow of wit. Having travelled through
various countries and learning the customs and
manners of various nativities is able to discuss
freely and forcibly all points connected with in
temperance, interpreting with many amusing
anecdotes which hold his hearers spell bound, pro-
ducing impressions, plain and pointed, that they
have only to be heard to be understood. His CO.
worker, Mr. Mosher, is of more slow delivery,
calculating with clearness and precision the
rious ways in which persons led captive by the
fiery adversary, and conducting his audience
through the divers channels into which plunge the
unwary. Lost to self respect, outcasts from prop
err society and the terror of wife, children and
friends. Nor did he stop in this strain; new
picture presented itself and one which prevails
largely in many country churches. tits that rep

great annoyance of the speaker. Wherefore he
passed upon the "traveling congregation" as he
termed it, a merited reproof, which told well for
the remainder of the lecture and the quiet of those
who were attentive. Having concluded cards were
passed around, containing the pledge, and the
number taken amounted to ninety-four. Is not
