THE WHITE CROSS.

This is an age of corruption and
vice and the RIGHTEOUSNESS of the old
world is rapidly communicating all
conditions OF society in our larger
cities and even in smaller towns.
Among a very large class of business
aud professional men of our larger
cities female virtue is looked upon as
a booty to secure by intrigue and to
glory over, aud the victims are num-
bered by the hundreds of thousands
annually. Men who would count their
life as nothing when offered in defense
of the honor of wife or daughter boast
TO boon companions of their victories
over somebody else's wife or daughter.
The church fails not only to
properly bestir itself in de-
tense of woman's virtue but
its members and even ministers are
continually being charged with the
crime of libertinism or seduction or
liasons. We appeal to every pure
hearted mans experience if it is not
SO, that respectable citizens and even
boys who ought to be as innocent as
babes, are 20 be 'ound everywhere
and in every community whose boasts
are foul and whose minds are cor
rupted by and through the influences
TO which we refer. No, nome, no life
however pure, no wife or daughter,
however shielded, is longer free from
the utterances of foul suspicion in
dulged in by men who claim to be
decent. In fact, so far as our male
readers are concerned there is no need
of dwelling upon the subject. 1t will
be but an age or two if some.check is
not devised before the capital of our
country will be Babylon and every
city, socially, a Paris or a London.
&c awaken the conscience of the ma
ton, probably the newspaper would
prove the most potent power, but who
can command such power? We are
glad TO note that an Episcopal clergy
man, Rev. Il. f. DE Costa, has organ
Ized the Society of the White Cross,
with branches everywhere. the object
of which. is to encourage respect for
women and 10 protect them from
wrong and to promote purity and
virtue. We hope the Knights of the
White Cross may number millions and
become SO strong that every time a |
iechcrous scoundrel who makes an
open remark derogaiory TO womanly |
purity may fluid his jaw summarliy |
smashed, and every man who seduces |
the virtuous or contaminatcS the inno- /
cent, may te so dealt with as TO
make it impossible for the offender
ever to offend again May heaven
prosper the new order, the objects of
when are embodied in the following
rules: /. To treat all women with res
pectand endeavor to protect themfrcm
wrong and degradation. ?. To endeav-
or to put down all indecent language
and coarse tests. 3. To maintain the
law ofpuri,y as equally binding upon
men aad women j. To endcavor 10
spread these principles among m.
companions, and try 10 help younger
brothers. To use every possible
mears TO fulfill the command:-"keep
thyseii pure"
