INCIDEN rs OF THE PRESIDENTIAL TRIP
A gentleman now In this city, and who &C
cCmpanied the President on his trip from
Cincinnati until he reached home last night,
gives one or two interesting incidents of the
Trip which the Associated Press agents failed
to telegraph. At Lynchburg, Gen. JubaI A.
Early refused 10 call on the President and
made the remark that Hayes should call on
him, as he owed him q visit. Said Early,
II planted two batteries and a brigade Of
men one night to greet him In the morning,
but when day broke he had gone aWayT
Early is sti.t unreconstrucied. He does not
forgive what he deems the fraud that made
Hayes President. While at Charlottesville
The Pres ident made visit to Monticello, the
tomb OF Jefferson. When he returned to his
hotel friend said that he was glad the Pre-
sident OF the United States had made q visit
to the grave OF the father OF democracy par
ticularly SO because he (the President) was
the last notable convert TO that faith. At
Orange @. H., Va, when the Presidential
train was moving on some one proposed
leader, "by way OF change let's give him
the rebel yell" II was uttered with q win,
the first time IL had been heard during the
trip. and, 1t IL said, pleased the President
much, - " was given with entire good faith.

THE GOSPEL TEMPERANCE.

The Gospsl Temperance meeting In the
City Hall had about the usual attendance
Thescriptures were read and prayers offered.
The Rev. Louis Barrett spoke earnestly and
At length. He spoke of the unexampled
growth of this country as nation, that in
all its material prosperity the cause Of IN
temperance hung as fearful pail. The
liquor business was = curse In It's ruin of
commercial values, In its destruction Of
health, In its degradation Of mind and NOR
ais, and its murder of the soul, It IL . dis
turber of the public peace and tho bsne Of
domestic happiness. The remedy for the
evil is to educate the community up to
sense of its enormity and thus prohibit 1t.
In the meantime the business must be in
jured as much ~ possible by inducing men
to give up their selfish indulgences and tho
soul of the inebriste must be saved by ex>
tending to him the hand Of love and pity.
Brother Wright spoke earnestly for few
moments depictin5 some of the evils Of in
temperate. Mr.. VIM. H. Quinn was In
hearty sympathy with al Temperance work
carried on in spirit of charity, and temper
auce workers must not forget to exercise
the same tone toward others that they
showed toward the victim Of strong drink.
Let no man surrender however his personal
independence - man, and Christ can but
work in any field that was open to him.
