Precautions AGAINST the Cholera.

Now, as always when the question
arises as. to the measures to be taken
against an anticipated epidemic, the
newspapers are dwelling on the mat
ter of the filthy condition of the streets,
and in this country and Great Britain
the most prominent topic of inquiry in
connection with the possible access of
cholera is as to what sanitary condition
various places would be found to be in
should the disease visit them 1t is all
very well to attend to cleanliness, not
only when an epidemic threatens, but
at all times. But it is sheer. folly to
bring that consideration into the fore
ground as being of the slightest avail
under such circumstances as an inn
pending invasion. of cholera. Cholera
undoubtedly runs riot in filth, but, I'M
fortunately, it shows the same luXuriance
in the cleanest of towns. The road to
safety lies not in giving the disease a
chilling reception on its arrival, but in
not allowing it to arrive. ...
The deplorable feature in the tenden-
cy alluded to is the fact that it leads to
neglect of the only measures that are of
any real use. 1t even leads to deprecia-
ton of the value of quarantine measures.
Public opinion, the utmost support of
which is always needed in matters of
sanitation, is thus lulled into indifference
to the necessary restrictions on COM
merce, and fails to oppose the obstruc-
tiyeness of trade. As the Nation lately
remarked, quarantine may never yet
have stopped the march of cholera.
There is good reason to think, however,
that it has. At all events, an extension
of the quarantine idea is all we can de-
pend upon to keep the disease at bay.
1t is, therefore, exceedingly satisfactory
and reassuring to learn that our Gov
eminent, at the suggestion of the Sur
geon-General of the Marine Hospital
Service, has telegraphed Instructions to
our Consuls Mt British ports to take
measures for the sanitary inspection of
vessels bound for this country Over
and over again have epidemics stolen
march on those who were busy in pooh
pooling the possibility of their arrival
While, then, us has before been stated
in this journal, there is no present occa-
sion for alarm, there is every occasion
for vigilance.-N Y. Medical Journal.

What Is Needed.

The Temperance work in the past has
made rapid strides, and has accom-
plished great work, but has not done
what it could, nor all that it should
have done The great cause of not adj
vancing faster is the want of supplies.
1t is impossible for an army to go into
battle expecting to have success unless
they are furnished with supplies, but
this is just what the friends of Temper
ance have been expecting of their lead
ers. They have expected that this war
fare was to be carried on against the
most powerful combination in the
world, running a business that pays an
enormous profit, and with all the money
they need, without any money from
those who advocate and favor the cause.
The money contributed by the advocates
of this Temperance cause for its sup
port does not amount to One-hundredth
part of that contributed by its oppo-
nents. This is all wrong, and should
not be so, but that it is 50 is an undeni-
able fact. A cause doing so much for
humanity as the Temperance should re-
ceive the hearty support of its friends
Not only is it true that the Temperance
people proper do not support the cause,
but it is also true that the churches, who
should be deeply interested in this
question, do not aid the work as they
should. There is wealth enough among
the Christian portion of our com
munity to supply the Temperance cause
with all the money needed, and never
feel it. Our people contribute to every
other cause, and literally, too, but
when it comes to Temperance they get
close, and seem to think very little will
go great way. Our people contribute
literally for the support of the poor.
This is commendable; butwhen we take
into consideration that nine-tenths of
the poverty of the land is caused by
strong drink, would it not BE better to
contribute to the suppression of the
evil, rather than providing for its re-
suits. Our people also contribute
literally to the support of the Prisoners
Aid Society, the necessity for which ex-
lists only as the result of the drink hab-
it. Would 1t not be better to contribute
to that cause which eradicates all these
evils. We think it would. The pres
ent condition of the Temperance cause
is such that it only needs a liberal pc
cuniary support to make it a perma-
nent success at a very early day. Whilst
this support is withheld the day of final
triumph will always be in the futare
Our people need to be educated upon
this question of giving, and we hope
they will be duh scholars, but will
learn rapidly, and when educated put
their education in practice. ,I...t. 49,.
Our churches need to be enlightened
as to their duty in this matter. They
should give a hearty support to the
cause. They can raise thousands for
missionary purposes, which is all right,
and for this work equally as important
rs the missionary cause, but few hun
bred dollars. t
We. hope our people will realize the
Importance of money in the prosecution
of our work, and give it. baltimore

The Temperance Enterprise.

An enterprise that has fed the hungry,
and clothed the naked, and healed the
sick, and taught the ignorant. and ele-
waited the degraded, and gladdened the
sorrowful, and he'd to the Cross multi
tudes that had been wandering far
away; an enterprise that has gathered
again the fortune that had been scat
tered, and built again the home that
had been ruined, and raised again the
character that had been blasted, and
bound up the heart that had been
broken; an enterprise that has given
peace where there was discord and
gladness where there had been woe,
that has broken open many a prison
door, and restored to his right mind
many a maniac; an enterprise that has
prevented many q suicide, and that has
robbed the gallows of many a victim
that would otherwise have been there;
an enterprise that has thinneo the
workhouse, and the hospital, and the
jail, and that has helped to fill the
school, and the lecture-room, and the
industrial exhibition; an enterprise that
has turned into useful citizens those
that were the pests of society, one of
the best educators of the masses, one of
the chief pioneers of the Gospel; an en-
terprise which is not Christ, but which
is one of the holy angels that 90 upon
His mission. Like some fair spirit from
another world, our great enterprise has
trodden the wilderness, and flowers of
beauty have sprung up upon her track.
She has looked around, gladdening all
on whom her smiles have fallen; she
has touched the captive, and his letters
have fallen off; she has spoken, and the
countenance of despair has been lighted
up with hope; she has waved her magic
wand, and the wilderness reioiced and
blossomed as the rose. Like the tabled
Orpheus, she has warbled her song of
mercy, and wild beasts, losing their
ferocity, have followed gladly and
gratefully in her train. She has raised
up those that have been worse than
dead, sepulchred in sin, and she has led
multitudes to the living waters of saliva

continued;

Avoid All Needless Danger.

.
Now and then man finds himself
called to struggle with the rushing
rapids of sweeping torrent, that he
must breast successfully perish. 1t
is fearful conflict at the best. If he is
there at the call of duty, or under. the
pressure of circumstances beyond his
own control, he can look for help above
all human power. Then it is that his
Fathers, promise sounds assuringly in
his ear: (" When thou passest through
the waters | will be with thee; and
through the rivers they shall not over
flow thee" But if one can keep away
from such torrent without neglect of
duty, be should be glad to do it. Even to
the most favored One the warning
comes: "Thou shalt not tempt the Lord
thy God" There is no promise Of de-
iverance to one who rushes into dan
ger needlessly and with presumption.
The power of Niagara does not equal
the power of intemperance. The rapids
above Niagara are less deceitful and
less dangerous than the on-tlowing cur
rent of moderate drinking. He who
leaves the firm shore of total abstin-
ence is in the rapids above the fall. He
may continue to breast the stream:
"With God all things are possible"
But after, all, what business has he
there? Lord, lead as not into tempt
