The following are the resolutions on
temperance adopted by the Ohio Confer
ence at Delaware last week:

temperance adopted by the Ohio Confer
ence at Delaware last week:
Resolred, That recognizing the truth expressed in
our discipline that the business of manufacturing
and vending intoxicating drinks is against the prin-
ciples of morality, political economy. and the public
welfare and holding to long established convic
tions in favor of total legal prohibition the only
remedy for the liquor traffic, are, therefore.
scientiously opposed to the policy of regulation
either by license taxation, by any other
that would give legal protection to this traffic. which
is itself evil only evil, and evil continually.
Resolued, That it is our Judgment that the coming
General assembly of our State should submit to II
vote of the people clear and definite prohibitor,
amendment to our Constitution, and that this amend
ment should be submitted as constitutional ques-
tion unembarrassed by any other issue.
RESOLVED. That in view of the importance of right
teaching on this subject to the rising generation,
is our judgment that the General Assembly should
provide by law for instruction in the public schools
on the dangers of the evils of alcoholic drinks.
Resotred, That We deem it of great Importance t.,
have more temperance teaching in our churches and
Sunday schools, and to this end the subject of tenn
perance should have a more prominent place in our
Sunday school lesson system and our pulpit minis
trations.
Resotrcd, That, in view of the aggressive methods
and defiant spirit of the rum power in despoiling
homes, debasing society and corruping civil govern
ment. should hear and heed the call one our
chief ministers, when he Declares sit is the duty
the church of to-day to her forces against this
gigantic atrocity," and with uncompromisng hos
tiltty and unfaltering faith in the nterposition
Providence, we hereby pledge ourselves to each
other TO our conscience andto God to continue
this agitation and conflict for the overthrow
the liquor traffic.
ReSofred That we fully adopt the doctrine of ouI
discipline which present: Voluntary total abstinenc,
from all intoxicants the true ground of persona
temperance, and complete legal prohibition of tn.
traffic in alcoholic drinks the duty civil govern
ment. We heartily approve of all lawful ana Chris
tian efforts to save society from the manifold and
grievous evils resulting from intemperance, and
earnestly advise people cooperate In all
which may seem to them wisely adapted
that end. Signed by the committee:

comes from Williamsport, Pa. Some

were miserable wrecks. Some time

sell diamond ring which she hau
kept through all her troubles, in order
to bury him. After he was gone she
became worse than ever, and few
lays ago was found dead in her bed,
with bottle of opium in her hand,

One of the most cruel cases of
woman's heartlessness-at least one
man will think so-was that of Miss
Lille Boss, beautiful Georgia girl of
seventeen. Old man Wetherington,
aged sixty-one, had, with the aid OF
Lilies family. persuaded her to marry
him. A great wedding feast was
prepared, and everything made ready
FOR the ceremony. Attired in her
wedding dress, the girl slipped away
met her old sweetheart young
man of the neighborhood-and the
two went to a Justices office and
were married. The bridal couple re-
turned in time for the wedding feast.
but strange to say, old man Wether-
ington, though repeatedly urged to
remain, got mad and left. He woul,
not even give the young couple hi>
blessing. As the old gentleman OF
course only sought the happiness ni
the young lady in offering himself =.
her husband, he ought surely to hav,
remained and danced at the wedding.

1t is claimed that Gen. Crook-who
did some good work during the war,
has been a total failure in dealing
with the hostile Indians in the West,
being led off by treacherous scouts,
while the savages roamed at will
through country of their own choos-
ing. It will be hard for old soldiers
to believe this, bat certain it is that
from some cause the troops have been
unable to do anything with the hos

The Ironton papers engaged in a
small sized dispute as to whether thu
Sheriff did, or did not furnish the
prisoners in the Jail with boxing
gloves, and the Register seemed to
think it rather rough for a reforma-
tory institution. But possibly the
paper did not understand the Sheriff. s
motive. Possibly his intention was
to prepare the prisoners-by thorough
ly matchmaking them in the Mar
quis of Queensbury Rules-for field
of future usefulness in the earth
Possibly he was fitting them to be-
come Missionaries to Cincinnati.
