Since the Rev. Sam Jones' advent |
here, there has been but little talked |
of other than the man, his evident
power, his original sayings, otc. In
deed has he wonderful power. In
deed does he move men a. though
some supernatural engnery worked
obedient to his hand. He has rug
ged, blunt directness ofboth purpose
aud speech which is as novel as IL is
delightful to those who entertain OK
IRENE views. Doubtless Satan re-
CARDS Sam Jones as an offensive par.
tizan, and would be glad to relieve
him from further official relation TO
tho church militant. Doubtless the
young gentlemen and ladies ofsociety,
fond of the innocent Rmusements of
dancing. card playing, tho arm clutch
and narrow seated buggics," re-
gard him IN the same light. lie
goes n toss farther in bis denunciation
of these foiblos than does any other
American preacher. To call out such
language, such bitter and extreme
ienunciations an oGense must be very
grave, a fault very vicious. Perhaps
it is in religion as 1t is in politics, the
happy mean between the extremes
is the truer ground. We cannot
all be grave, sedate and circumspect
At all times. We must have little
nonsense at times, aud it is our judg-
ment that the church has no higher
or holier task to her hand than the
direction of the anusemenis OF the
young.

Extent of Human Travel

From the Popular Science Monthly.
The movement of persons has UNDER
gone quiet as important growth as
that Of goods. In the "Reviewing of
the Worlds Economy" the number of
passengers carried by all the railroads
in all parts of the world in 1882 is
estimated at 2,4OO,OOO,OOO, OF. an
average Of 6, 100000 day, the alb
solute number of passengers carried
on steamers is smaller; but here as
was the case with goods, they are car.
ried for longer distances and more
days journeys than on railroads, so
that, estimated by the mile or day,
the amount OF both freight and pas
senger work the steamers do will adj
pear to much better advantage. The
significance OF the facilitation of pas
senger transportationis divided princi-
pally from it's effects on social con-
ditions civilizations and customs
One Of the most important of these
effects is Illustrated in emigra-

At recent meeting of the Chicago

the globe by sage and savage, saint
and sinner" was subject OF no lit
constant effect of the use of tobacco
than more or less impairment of vision
known as amblyopia. The use of tc-
bacco was so commonly assoc ated
with the use of liquor that it was q
question with many whether or not al
cohol was not the chief or only causa-
tive. In England the belief among
surgeons was that tobacco was the
more frequent cause of amblyopa,
while in America alcohol was cons d.
cred the primitive agent. The speaker
declared that most of the textbooks
supported the idea that the use of to-
bacco caused impairment of the s ght.
Smokers were the most frequent suf-
ferers, especially the smokers of pipes
and Cigarettes. In the course OF h S
practice he had come in contact ". tn
many persons suffering from various
defects of sight who smoked but did
not drink. Smoking often causes col
or blindness. Such defects were cured
by abandoning the use of tobacco, and
if need be, taking small doses OF
