From the incoherent rawlings Of few pO-
litical laborites it would appear that the
REGIsTER'S remarks yesterday morning
cut very close home. Careful aud earnest
discussion of every question Of public
policy is the duty Of all citizens. Such
discussion, within the limits which every
intelligent person will recognize, is proper
at all times. Bot there is a wide difference
between a labor organization aud a pOlit-
ical club. The REGISTER r~eiterates its
assertion that the political labor dema-
gogue is the worst foe of the laboring man.
When a labor organization is controlled by
men of this class its usefulness is impaired,
if not at an end.
IL would be very interesting, since the
question Of a third party has been brought
up, if the gentlemen, who feel hurt
by the REGISTERS remarks, would
define their exact position. Is their
political activity in labor organizations in
the interests of the proposed labor party in
West Virginia, or in the interests Of an
other party that is anything, but the party
of the wOrkingmen? 1T il n p~ertinen;
question under the circumstances.

TEMPERANCE ITEMS.

IT is said that 5000 out of the H.
600 saloon-keepers in New York City
have been in prison for crime.
AGRICULTURAL societies more gen.
orally than ever before are deciding to
exclude the sale of intoxicating
liquors from their grounds.
The Yale Faculty have just passed
a law forbidding absolutely the use of
intoxicating liquor in any of the soci-
ETY. organizations of the students.
The character of the rum sold in
Africa may be judged from the follow
ing incident: A gorilla died, and to
preserve the body in order to send il
to Liverpool it was placed in this
liquor. On its arrival it seemed as if
it had been dipped in vitriol; the hair
and skin burned off, and the rest was
too horrible to be described.
SOLDIERS in the Russian army are
said to be cured of Independently a
curious and heroic method. The inc
briate is locked up and given only food
boiled in his favorite wretched spirit
and water. He soon becomes horribly
sick, but is kept on this diet until the
very sight or scent Of the spirit creates
in him an inextinguishable .loathing
for it.

SOME DAY.

Some day shall be lying cold and STILL
My quiet hands be folded on my breast
No more to do the bidding of my Will,
No more the conscious morn disturb my rest
Some day my work will all be laid aside,
Ended though all unfinished, 1t will seem to
me;
How many times fail, how hard tried,
That my life's work might more than stubble
be.
Some day my noisy boys will gently tread,
No ringing shout of mother" reach my ear;
Lord, save them from the dangers that dread
When Thou hast taken me past all my fear
Some day my weary feet will cease to climb
The uphill path that was SO rough to me;
Though well-nigh slipping, yet how sweet the
time.
leaned my weakness by the way on Thee!
Some day the one beloved, whose gentle touch
Would send the thrilling currents to my
heart,
Caress and vain regrets will lavish overmuch,
And tears that with mine might have flowed
VIII start;
Dear eyes, grown careless to express their
love-
I've searched so oft in vain-bring now their
store
Nor glance responsive, nor sealed eyelids move
What would have been so precious, shall
need 10 more.
To-day great burdens lie upon my heart;
One who had sorrows left this message sweet
Bear ye another's burdens" but the heavy
part
Himself doth carry, yet my hayward feet
Hath faltered, and l sorely need, to-day,
Some words OF comfort from apilgrim friend,
Fulfilling His sweet will, as by the way
We walk together; may be near the end.
Dear friends, to-day is ours; another dawn
may shine
Cloudless and fair, with no declining sun,
No need OF any ministry aid of thine
In that blest day. The work OF life is done.

and respected him; and all through his
love Of the exciting effects of alcohol,
which, as already observed, is now
demonstrated, on the highest scientific
authority, to be the result of decom-
position in which, in unseen myriads,
the microbes play so important part.
Even the untutored savage would re-
ject potation so revolving if made
aware of its poisonous qualities; and
yet, because it is clarified, tinted or
otherwise disguised, we complacently
allow it to be taken into our stomachs
to the utter destruction of our bodies
and souls, the benumbing of all our
finer sensibilities. including our brain
power.
The disgrace and degradation of this
may well excite pity and anger, and a
desire to rescue the victims of this in
diligence from their debasing thrall-
dom. He who would lay even single
straw in the way of accomplishing this
desire, no matter what his calling or
station, conspires against the peace of
the home, material prosperity and
good government In the sight of
Heaven it is not sufficient for man to
keep sober himself. He must work
and struggle to keep others sober also.
10 accomplish this latter he is bound
to make every reasonable sacrifice.
Although his first duty may be prop
erly toward himself, his next is toward
his neighbor He can not afford to
take even the gloved hand of wrong,
or to indulge in any habit, however
seemingly trif1ing, which might cause
a brother to stumble, or might grow
into a positive evil. In this view of
the case, if we would stand clear in the
sight of Heaven we must Danish alco-
hol in all its forms from the face of the
land, and discountenance, in both pub
lie and private, those who traffic in
it. And this can be accomplished in
one way only-by solid and united
determination of the people to secure
Prohibition votes at the polls in every
election for peace or power, whether
National or local, State or municipal. l.

News came of terrible fighting at
the front. Stragglers, broken-down
horses, mules, wagons, ambulances
from which now and then a CHASTITY

after day for several days. The yard,

The first day they drank up all the
water in the well. Then regiments
marched by almost as fast as when
they were making their forced march
south, They passed on by the house,
but stopped on the crest of the hill up
the road. There they began to dig
with spades and shovels, and the next
morning when looked out there was
long line of forts, and the Yankee
flag flying above them and, great
heavens! the black mouths of cannon
frowning directly down at us.
While | was looking | heard some
thing rattle far down the road. It
sounded like emptying a barrel of
stones into another barrel. Then an
other rattle, mingled with constant
dull booming All the morning the
sounds kept coming nearer, till at last
l could distinctly hear the loud reports
of cannon and the muskets all fired at
once. | noticed a great stir in the forts
above. Horsemen were galloping back
and forth; new guns We're every mo-
