Tom MarshalI's Pledge.

The following extract from speech made
by Tom Marshall at meeting of the Con-
gressional Temperance Society in Washing
ton, some years ago, has the stamp of true
genius, and will be read with interest:
''NIr. President, the pledge that l have
taken renders me secure forever from fate
Inevitably following habits like mine-a fate
more terrible than death. That pledge,
though confined to myself alone, and with
reference to its effects only upon me, my
mind, my heart, my body, would not ex-
change for all earth holds of brightest and
of best. No, no, sir! Let the banner Of this
temperance cause go forward or go back
ward; let the world be rescued from its de-
grading and ruinous bondage to alcohol or
mott for one shall never, never repent
what have done. | have often said this
and feel it every moment Of my existence,
walking or sleeping. Sir, [ would not ex-
change the physical sensations-the mere
sense of animal being which belongs to a
man who totally refrains from all that can
intoxicate his brain or derange his nervous
structure, the elasticity with which he
bounds from his couch in the morning, the
sweet repose it yields him at night, the
feeling with which be drinks in through his
clear eyes the beauty and the grandeur of
surrounding nature-nay, sir, | would not
exchange my concious being as a strictly
temperate man, the sense of renovated
youth, the glad play with which my pulses
now beat htalthful music, the bounding vi
vacity with which the life-blood courses its
exulting way through every fiber of my
frame, the communion high which my health
full ear and eye now hold with all the gor-
geous universe of God, the splendors of the
morning, the sOftness of the evening sky,
the bloom, the beauty, the verdure of earth,
the music of the air and the waters, with
all the grand associations of eternal nature
reopened to the fine avenues of sense-no,
sir, though poverty logged me, though
scorn pointed its slow finger at me as |
passed, though want and restitution and
every clement Of earthly misery, save only
crime, met my waking eye from day to day,
not for the brightest and noblest wreath
that ever encircled statesman'S brow; not
if some angel commissioned by heaven, or
some demon, rather, sent from hell to test
the resisting strength of virtuous resolution,
should tempt me back with all the wealth
and all the honors which world can be-
stow; not for all that time and all that earth
can give, would l cast from me this precious
pledge OF a liberated mind, this talisman
against temptation, and plunge again into
the dangers and terrors which once beset
my path. So help me heaven, sir, I
would spurn beneath my very feet all the
gifts the universe could offer, and live and
die, as / am, poor, but sober"

CLEAN STABLEs.-There is possibly no
more repulsive sight than dirty COW stable,
and one in which dairy cattle are housed is
especially offensive. 1t has been demon
strated that COWS neglected in this respect
fail to yield perfect flow of milk, and it
is reasonable to suppose that suchis the case.
The richest of food may be given to them,
but if their condition in the stall be neglect
ed they will not thrive. The foil odor of a
filthy stable must necessarily permeate not
only the animals hide, but it has been prov
en- that the meat of stall-fed steers fattened
under these circumstances is unwholesome;
moreover, the milk even during the period
of milking, is liable to absorb the filthy
emanations from such stables and to become
absolutely poisonous. It would seem,
therefore, reasonable that owners and deal
ers in cattle and milk should appreciate the
importance of cleanliness and it's relation to
health, even as a source of profit.
