The Two CUPs.-At a recent COM
munion service, before passing the cup,
over which thanks had been given, the
pastor said, There is cup of which we
read in the Scriptures, concerning which
it is said, Look not upon the wine when
it moveth itself Alright. when it giveth
its color in the cup. At last it biteth
like a serpent and stipgeth like an adder.
That cup through terrible mistake has
frequently found its way to the Lords
table? The cup which we now pass to
you, my bretheren, contains no alcohol,
no serpent, no adder This liquid which
you now put to your lips is the unJer-
mented Juice of the grape, similar to
that which our Saviour used when he
instituted this sacred ordinance, and
which he called, as if to avoid mistake,
the fruit of the vine The other cup
we would not dare to offer you. 1t con-
tains alcohol, poison, death and is no
fit symbol of the Saviour's blood, which
has life in it: nor did our Lord intend
that such wine should be supped by his
followers at his table or anywhere else
Some of you have been reclaimed from
Incorporate habits. You need not feal
as you put this cup to your lips. 1t i:
the cup of blessing! In it there is nc
alcohol to set your veins on fire, and
awaken the appetite which divine grace
has conquered. "-NationaL Ba6tiSt.

Temperance.
THE NATIONAL CURSE.

Judged from the stand point of moral
ity, political economy or social well-be-
ing. liquor guzzling IS, in the opinion of
the writer, the peculiar curse of the
American people. The man who tires
of fighting giant wrong forgets the
logic of history. We were placed on
earth to do all the good we can, and we
should be thankful that we are living in
a time when all the intellectual forces
have freer and grander play than ever
before. This is the eve of tremendous
upheaval in thought and action. Revo-
luton is in the air, and we feel in our
bones that the next twenty years will
develop changes not covered by the pro-
gramme of the old time philosophy. All
the good and all the bad forces of So
ciety are seemingly reused to their full
lest activity, and this is the most inapt
time possible for any man naturally true
to be wasting his brain and energy over
the whiskey bottle. AS it is privilege
to live in the latter part of the nine
teenth century, it is both blunder and
sin to waste the time in expensive con.

Is A DRINKING MAN A SAFE MAN p
That thousands of precious lives are
yearly imperiled by drink on railway
and steamer must be admitted by every
thoughtful mind; and the following
must commend itself as praiseworthy
precedent for all railroads and steamers
as means of greater security to the
travelling public The indianapolis and
st. Louis railroad has lately adopted a
rule which will add very materially to
the safety of those who have occasion to
travel over it, and also, we doubt not,
to the business prosperity of the compa-
ny. An order, officially promulgated
March 3lst, says: 1.-THE use of intoxi-
eating liquors by employees of this COM
pany is expressly prohibited. Hereafter
any person in the employ of this COM
pany who shall become intoxicated, or
who shall be known to enter drinking
saloons for the purpose Of obtaining liq-
uOr, will be promptly dismissed from
the service. Any person in the service
of this company who cannot consistently
comply with this order is respectfully
requested to resign"

WHEN DESIRE SHALL FAIL.

Of all the pathetic sentences in that
most perfect of description in Ecclesias-
ties, none seem to me quite so touching
as this one: "And the grasshopper shall
be a burden, and desire shall fall
When we are young, we take hold of
many things eagerly. We delight in
activity. We fling ourselves ardently
into our work and our play. But in old
age, the interest grows languid. Disap-
pointments do not greatly depress, nor
does success very much elate us. 81

the river burn the lights of home. There
stands the Fathers house, with an open
door for the children, and when the

the wrinkles, and the dim eyes will
brighten, and they will be young again.
When death comes to the little babe, to
the young girl, to the man in his strength,
we sometimes feel that it is a calamity.
So many promises are blighted, so many
hopes disappointed, and so many affairs
are arrested, that we are saddened and
amazed. But when the pilgrim has
rounded out the full three-score-and-ten,
when life TRANQUILITY expires, to be re-
sumed in the land where all are glad and
young forever, we can only lift our voices
in praise.

The covetous man defles and pollutes
his heart, which is the temple of the
Holy Ghost, as the Jews de6led and pol
luted the temple of Jerusalem, by setting
up the tables of the money-changers in
it, and filing it with buying and selling.
Thus does the covetous man fill the tenn.

Sir Wilfred Lawson, writing in the
Nineteenth Century on the use of in
toxicating drinks, says: "No one favors
excess. But though no one favors ex-
cess, it is admitted on all hands that, as
nation, we do exceed, and that Gl4O,-
100000 (seven hundred millions of
dOllars) per annum is far to much to be
spent on brain poison by the people of
the United Kingdom. If drink were
merely harmless luxury, the above
sum would be a startling national ex-
penditure; but when we reflect that the
consumption of this drink is, by almost
unanimous testimony of our judges. po-
lice, prison and poOr-law authorizes, and
all those in position to know the hab-
its of the people, pronounced to be the
main cause of crime and pauperism il

little negro six years of age, was
pushed headforemost into q kettle
of boiling water by another little
negro aged 10 years, on the farm of
Mr.. Jas. Rivers, eight miles south
of Pulaski, and was scalded so bad
ly that he died the next day
Coroner Tarpley held an inquest
and arrested the boy, Billy Aber-
nathy by name, and had him placed
in Jail, and on Friday last Esq. Alb
ernathy tried him and bound him
to answer at Criminal Court. The
facts developed on trial are as fol-
lows: Paschar smother was wash
ing and had kettle holding about
60 gallons of water just in the act
of boiling. Paschal was stirring
the water with stick, when Billy
came up and told him to stop. He
continued to stir, when Billy told him
if he didn't stop he would throw him
in; and the boy still perslsting, Bill
ly caught him by the back of the
neck and one ankle and plunged him
headlong into the seething caul
dron. Other children standing
around pulled him out before he
drowned. This occurred at sun
down and he died next day at
o'clock from the fearful scalding.
OF course the child did not know
the enormity of his act nor intend
to kill, but it forms a terrible lesson
that should be read to every child
In Giles county, and he should be
punished both for his own good
and as warning to other children.
