Gen. JubaI Early's Address.

In Baltimore on last Thursday night,
in the Concert Hall of the Academy of
Music Gen. Jubal Early delivered an
address on "Jackson's Campaign
Against Pope, in August, 1852. and the
Second Battle of Manassas" on the &C.
casion of the first anniversary of the
Association of the Maryland Line.
Every seat in the ball was filled, and
many persons stood up The audience

egy and operations as Gen. Lee, and the
difficulty he Iabored under was to find
agents To carry out the plans he de-
signed. Gen. Jackson was lust the
man he wanted. Whatever Gen Lee
devised or suggested Jackson was ready
to CRY out promptly and without ques-
ton as to its feasibility. The COT fidence
they had in each other was mutual. and
there was no man in all the South,
whether in or out Of the army, upon
whom the loss of Gen. Jackson fell so
heavily IS upon Gen, Lee. In this
campaign against Pope Gen. Jackson
displayed greater ability and resources
than upon any other occasion, because
the circumstances by which be was sur
rounded required such display, and he
fully justified the confidence reposed 10
him by Gen. Lee And now, my com
rades, when called upon for defense
or justification of the cause in which
you were enlisted, you can point proud
ly and confidently to the characters OF
he great leaders whom you folio wed,
Lee and Jackson. for your complete
vindication. When the captive Israel
ties sat down by the rivers of Baby Ion
and wept, the sacred Psalmist put into
their mouths the following language
If l forget thee, o Jerusalem, let my
right hand forget her cunning If do
not remember thee. let my tongue
cleave to the roof Of my mouth, if /
prefer not Jerusalem above my CHIEF
joy
II trust that every faithful soldier OF
the Army of Northern Virginia is ready
to exclaim with me: "If ever disown,
repudiate or apologize for the cause for
which Lee fought and Jackson died,
let the lightnings of Heaven blast me,
and the scorn of all good men and true
women be my portion ,"

Temperance SermOn-Wines of the
Bible.

On last Sunday night Rev. Rumsey Smith
son, Pastor of the NJ. e. Church South of this
city, preached in that church to large au-
dience an able, logical, and impressive sermon,
based upon Proverbs. chap. 2Srd, verses % to 80
inclusive. His subject was 1.-THE Wines of the
Bible"
The Bible both approves and condemns wine,
and yet there is no contradiction, for the wine
which it approves Is the unfermented wine
which will not intoxicate, because 1t contains
no alcohol; and that which 1t condemns Is the
fermented wine which will intoxicate, because
it contains alcohol. the product Of fermenta-
ton. = .. .t- th...e' d .I+.
Alcohol Is not product of nature-it cannot
be found in nature. tits poison and SO con-
sidered by chemists. It is not IN grain or
fruits prior to decomposition. 1T is made by
observation-disclosures it is, therefore, not
at all wonderful that it produces death.
The wine used by Christ when he instituted
the Supper was the unfermented wine, as is
evident from the fact that 1t was at the time OF
the Jewish Passover when the houses were
purged even of the leaven used in making their
bread. No product OF fermentation would be
used at that time. The wine at the marriage
feast in Cana Of Galilee, when Christ converted
the water into wine was, of course. unferment
ed. There is no authority in the scripture for
the use of fermented wines under any circum-
stances-the use of them is always condemned.
The advice of Paul to Timothy not to use
water, but little wine for his stomach's sake
and his oft inf1rmities, even lift were ferment-
ed, which is not probable, furnishes no author
ity to use wine as a beverage, for 1t was only a
little" he was to use as a medicine 49,
Distilled liquors are not mentioned in the
Bible for the reason that distillation was not
discovered till the 9th century after Christ.
The manufacture, sale, and intempera'e use
of spirituous liquors are property character
and soul destroying sins. The license system
which legalizes the liquor traffic should be
abolished, and no man should be supported for
Office who approves it. The argument that 1t
Is profitable source of revenue is fallacious,
tor the expenses which its results impose upon
the State, by causing crime and pauperism and
insanity, are many times greater than the rev.
enue thus derived. as is clearly demonstrated
by statistics.
He was very earnest and said If the Bishop
should send him hack here he would take up
the subject again. for he felt it to be his duty to
do all he could to break up the traffic in spritu-
Gus liquors, and to abate the great evil of in
temperance.
