Bishop Simpson on Stimulants.

In his third Yale lecture Bishop
Simpson advises the young men who
are entering the ministry to avoid all
stimulants, and in connection with this
advice gives bit of information which
is not generally known: 81 would
scarcely suppose that any one who feels
himself called to the ministry will coun.
tenance their use; yet kind friends will
sometimes suggest that you are weak,
your nerves are tremulous, you have
been out in the cold, you need a stimu-
liant, aud they will urge the taking of a
little wine or brandy before preaching.
These friends will tell you that the most
distinguished ministers are in the habit
of using them; and regret to say that
in many churches both wine and brandy
are there kept in the vestry for the use
of the minister. both before and after
preaching" He further says: "I have
known some young ministers who have
used few drops of paregoric or opium
to give them strength for the pulpit. I
am glad to say that 1 have known but
few such cases; but I must add that
these were led in the end to either phys
ical or moral ruin" And in passing.
he fires shot at the clerical cigar: 81
suppose there is a sort OF enjoyment
connected with it, for 1 have seen men
sit for an hour smoking, with their feet
upon table, protesting to be studying
l have no doubt they had visions oi
greatness and glory; but prolonged OBJ.
servation shows that their lives usually
ended, with their cigar, in smoke"

and kicked the top of the portcullis as it
