So many years.
He same to me whom info was green

Ho came. and for little space
MY life was gladdened by his grace;
But soon he fed. and JOY gave place
To grief and tears.

My louo heart sighs..
So sadly sighs.
Recall thy fearless nature, them"
Sweet love replies.
Softly replies.

The same that once was to thee.
There's no room in the heart for me,
Where fears arise"

The Address of Mrs. Reese.
Before the ". c. T. u Convention" at
rBelpre, 0.

rBelprc, O.
|{is
Among the notable good things
of the Ladies' County Temperance
Convention held in Belpre, O., the
18th and 10Th of this month May
was the address of Mrs. Reese, of
Steubenville, Ohio.
She was favored with large and
appreciative audience, including
what we are always glad to see in
our Temperance meetings, a large
number of young people. The adj
dress of Mrs. Reese was founded up
on the Spirit and work ofNehemiah
in restoring Jerusalem. In very
natural and felicitous way she kept
up an analogy of the desolations of
the liquor-traffic, and the friends
of humanity who are at work in
the Temperance Reform. Her IL
Illustrations were appropriate and
telling in application to the agen-
cies raised up in the providence of
God for restoring and building up
His cause, and consequently the in
terests of society. Of the various
hindrances the returned captives
had to meet, none was more per-
picking than that of the Mobiles.
This she applied to our people of
rank who prefer self-indulgence to
appropriate self-denial for the adj
vancement of temperance. Forcible
and just illusions were made to pol
iticians who for personal ends pan
der to the army of liquor-venders.
In closing up, the lecturer express
ed the most sanguine faith that ere
she would see death, she would see
the rebuilding of the walls in this
work of humanity and its triumph
throughout our beloved nation.
1t is not often that our place is
favored with the SAVIOR of such good
and wholesome influences as pro-
ceeded from this address, and the
business of the w. G. t. U. Conven.
ton, of which this is but a speci-
men of its excellent fruitage.

A sensational story comes from
Detroit, Mich, of the formation of
a brewers" and Saloon-keepers'
Nihilist Confederation" in that
State to oppose the temperance peo-
pie who control the Legislature and
are waging relentless and success
full war against the liquor interest.
Even the distiller's worm will turn
if trod upon, and hence the "Nihil-
lists" The proceedings of the Con-
federation will be secret, and mem
bers will be bound by a solemn oath
to annihilate any brother who
breaks his oath and divulges any
of the secrets of the Order. Stubborn
legislative "temperenzlers" will be
summarily dealt with. They will
be warned, and, if the warning is
not needed, the Nihilists will act
