A Public Duty.

We are not in the habit of putting
any sort of patent medicines in our col
umns, for the business of newspaper
is to let people know what is going
on in the world, and not to lend aid
to what may be an imposition. But
we happen to know DR.. David Ken
nedy, of Rondout, N. Y, and can per-
sonally testify to the excellence of
the medicine which the Doctor calls
"Favorite Remedy" For diseases Of
the Blood, Kidneys, and Bowels it has
no equal. We would not be without
it for five times the dollar that it cost.

Scientific Advancement.

Scientific advancement, it has been
remarked, has been slower and less
noticeable in the care Of the sick and
the treatment Of disease than in any
other department Of human knowl-
edge. The life or death of a patient
is too frequently mere matter Of ac-
cident or chance. Some great discov-
cries, however, have been made and
certain remedies are known and used
with almost infallible curative results.
Such remedy is Taraxine where de-
ranged liver is involved, or where dis
eases of the Bowels, Kidneys or Spleen
prevail. For sale by E. D. Lewis.

Now Jersev Crane Wine.

The success of Mr.. Speer, the great
wine man of New Jersey, has arisen
from the strict purity and valuable
properties Of his wines for invalids
and feeble persons, and his reputation
extends over the whole union as being
areliable producer Of pure wines. His
Port Grape Wine is now being order
ed by families in Dresden, London
and Paris for its superior medicinal

contained in the brown shale rock

BY HENRY w.LONGFELLOw.
Alone walk the peopled city.
Where each seems happy with his own;
On! friends, ask not for your pity
walk alone.
No more for me yon lake reioices.
Ihough moved by loving airs of June
Oh. birds, your sweet and piping voices
Are out of tune.
In vain for me the elm tree arches
Its plumes in many feathery spray
In vain the evenings starry marches
And sunlit day.
In vain your beauty. Summer flowers;
Ye cannot greet these cordial eyes;
They gaze on other fields than ours
On other skies.
The gold is rified from the Golfer,
The blade is stolen from the sheath:
Life has but one more boon to offer,
And that is-Death.
Yet well know the voice of Duty,
And. therefore, life and health must crave,
Though she who gave the world its beauty
Is in her grave.

Who draw their earliest "a II s, II life from thee thee

For life to me is as station
Wherein apart traveller stands
One absent long from home and nation.
In other lands;
And l. as he who stands and listens,
Amid the twilight's chill and gloom,
To hear, approaching in the distance,
The train for home.
For death shall bring another mating,
Beyond the shadows of the tomb,
On yonder shore bride is waiting
Until l come.
In yonder fields are children playing,
And there-oh visions of delight =

In robes of white.

Stealing the treasures one by one,
I'll call Thee blessed when Thou makest
The parted-one.

ED. FREEMAN Isaac's Greek,
Harrison county, very much needs
the stringent laws of prohibition,
or in other words, liberty and free
dom, freedom from the demon OF
drink.
O, that God in His infinite good
ness and mercy would give us the
victory over the enemy, and free
dom in our little mountain State!
In our last winters meeting at
New Bethel, M, E. Church, to our
shame, young man came forward
as seeker for religion, while under
the influence of liquor. The same
young man with two or three 9TH
ers, drunk like himself, while Il
protracted meeting was going on at
Tichenal's Chapel, on the first of
this month, raised Il row near the
church, and justice of the peace
had to be called to disperse the
rabble.
In the midst of the sacred influ-
ences of our schools and churches,
there are in our land 100000 grog-
shops, and to carry on the business
of these death-dens, requires $780,
900 of Americas citizens.
AS an immediate result Of the
traffic, we have seventy-6ve per
cent. of all the murders committed
in the land. fifty per cent. of all
the insanity and eighty-six per
cent. of all the criminals.
Ninety-six per cent. Of the young
men that drink 60 down to drunk
ards graves, leaving heart-broken
mothers, wives and children, with
wretchedness and woe, where all
might have been joy and peace.
And yet, in the face of all this, the
bar-room is the school of American
politics.
At every election 100000 drunk
ards 90 staggering up to the polls
to deposit the ballots that freemen
alone should handle, while the sa-
loon-keepers, wherever they are
tolerated, name and nominate the
men for whom these drunken slaves
are marched up to vote.
What a sad reflection this is on
a christian nation and free people.
West Virginia freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1881-1886, 1882-01-04

tians, talk, work and vote as chris
tians-vote for principle and not
for party.
If we all should vote temperance
as we talk and pray temperance,
there would be such an upheavel
and overthrowing of the strongholds
Of the liquor-curse in our State as
would astonish even ourselves.
Let us not talk and pray for the
success of the Temperance Cause,
and then 60 to the polls and vote
for beer-keg, because it wears the
stamp of our party.
Courage and consistency, lead by
principle, will bring success. With
cowardice and compromise we never
can be saved. Let our watchword
be "The New Yearfor the Right"

WILsoNBURG, Dec. 22d, 1881.
Ed. FREEMAN: For the past three
weeks we have been engaged in a
series of revival meetings, which
have been very interesting, and of
great blessings to this town and
community. Some eight or nine
have protested faith in Christ and
turned their faces toward the land
of celestial things, and others still
at the mercy-seat. This morning a
small church of promise was organ
lied, and set to work Systematically
in the Masters Vineyard.
The sin Of this place, and the
greatest opposition to church work,
is the underground whisky-traffic.
There has not been for years any
licensed shops in this place, but
nevertheless the fiery fluid of death
has been dealt out. Two men re-
side here, who sometimes receive
barrels marked "glass" There
may be something in them that
cuts keener. These men have
been time after time indicted and
incarcerated in the county Jail, and
still they persist in violating law
and common decency, without the
least regard for the poor miners,
and then, Oh how sad, their poor
wives and children! Of course
money is at the bottom of it all.
That wretch is hard who will stake
the happiness of a home and family
on dollars and dimes.
The other night after preaching,
some drunken man felt inspired to
come to the altar, but getting rest
less there, he was soon up giving
advice to the~minister, when some
body else felt inspired to lead him
out.
Temperance has been preached
and prayed for here. We await the
harvest. w. D. BARGER.

BURNING SPRINGS, w. VA, |

ED. FREEMAN: Last Tuesday
evening temperance meeting was
held in the Baptist church at this
place. The organization was eff
fected by electing A. d. Cain Presi-
dent, and DR., A. J, Mitchell, Sec
rotary.
The Burning Springs Cornet
Band furnished the music. After
prayer by the President Rev. W. NJ
Weekley was introduced and made
an incontrovertible prohibition
speech. After the address petit
ton was circulated through the
audience, and out of the twenty
five voters present t,centy-one signed
the petition. This will show you
how Writ county stands on prohi-
bition.
The following preamble and res
olutions were offered by MIR. Cain
and unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, the liquor-traffic is re-
sponsible for the most of the crime
and pauperism Of the country, and,
WHEREAS, we believe it to be
wrong to license an evil and give
it legal protection, therefore,
ResoIued 1st. That we are in favor
of prohibiting the said traffic by
law.
I'd. That we request our repre-
sentatives at the adjourned session
of the Legislature to use their inf1u-
ence to have submitted an amend
ment to the constitution of W. Va.
looking to that end.
3rd. That we approve of the ac-
ton of our County Commissioners
in refusing to grant license.
4th. That a copy of these resolu-
tions be furnished our county pa
per and the FREEMAN for publica-
ton.
Mr.. Weekley, during his stay
here, obtained quite number of
subscribers for our noble temper
ance organ, the FREEMAN.

CHRISTMAS, 1881.
ED. FREEMAN The citizens of
Newburg and surroundings, met in
a mass meeting, Sunday evening,
Dec. 25th, 1881, in the interest of
the Temperance prohibition ques-
ton"
The meeting was opened by sing
ing by the choir, at 7 p. M, after
which Rev. J. Fream, Of Independ-
ence, w. Va, read a short lesson
from the scriptures, and prayer was
offered by Mr.. 7. J. Gibson, Of New
burg.
On motion of Rev. J. Fream, DR..
T. F. Lanham, Of Newburg, was
elected President, and w. c. Shafer,
of Independence, Secretary, with
instructions to make a report of
the meeting to the FREEMAN.
The President then introduced to
the audience the orator of the even
ing, Prof A, L. Purinton, Of Par
kersburg, who made very impress
sive and pointed argument, which
was strong and forcible enough to
convince Satan himself that "prohi-
bition" was the only right plan
We are sorry that the illness I'M
der which the Professor was labor
ing prevented more lengthy dis
course.
After the lecture, the Presid't, on
motion, appointed Prof. Stauhagan,
Mr.. Heikes and Prof. linn, to wait
upon the audience with the prohi-
bition petitions, during which the
choir furnished some choice music.
The committee was instructed to
retain the petitions and secure as
many names as possible by the 9Th
of January, 'S2.
On motion, the President ap-
pointed Rev. J. Fream, of Independ-
ence, and Messrs. David Gibson and
Nathaniel Stephenson, as a COM
mittee to place a petition in every
school precinct in the county, after,
which the meeting adjourned.

DECEMBER, 22D, 1881.

ED. FREEMAN An interesting
Temperance meeting was held in
Cairo. There was an abundance of
rain, mud and darkness, still the
people came out, even ladies, to
help forward the good work.
The choir gave us sweet music,
and added to the interest.
Hon. D. McGregor presided. The
audience was not large, but the en-
thusiasm was.
Rev. D. M. Sleeth was present to
aid with prayer and words of prac-
teal wisdom.
Dec. 26th.-Near the village of
Highland, Richie county, another
temperance meeting was held. A
fearful rain storm prevailed all day
and night, but number of people
came out, and the meeting was
frst-rate.
One young man made the first
use of his rights as a voter in sign
ing our petition. Mr.. D., of this
place,sis full Of zeal in our work.
He thinks that preachers should
speak out on this great subject. At
this place the Third Quarterly
meeting was held Saturday and
Sunday, Rev. R. M. Hite, pastor.
The exercises were very helpful to
christians. Two persons were re-
ceived into the membership of the
church on Saturday morning.
Rev. Mr.. Palmen of the M. E.
Church, held very successful
meeting here a few weeks ago.
At Ellenboro we had to wait
hours for a train and then had to
take the way train. The dirt on
this is intolerable. Women and
children are sometimes on it to be
smoked half to death by a parcel of
rude men with villainously mean
stogies. People never smoke Ha-
vanas on the way train, but seem
to keep the meanest that is made
for the noses of the unfortunates
who are compelled totravel on it.
The principal staples of Ellenboro
for few days seemed to be mud
and shooting matches. This semi
barbarous custom that obtained in
this country before the school-mas-
ter was abroad, is still popular with
certain parties in that latitude.
There may be some connection be-
tween the birth of Christ and gam
bling, but I utterly fail to appre-
bend it.
overheard some of those who
