A few years ago the most noted re-
vivalist in the United States was
Flavius Littleiohn. He died the 9TH
er day in the poor house at Paw Paw,
Mich. He was entered as drunkard
and pauper, and was killed by falling
or jumping from his window at night.
Littleiohn was, in his prime, one of
the most effective Of orators, and a
warm friend OF John B. Cough. Such
instances are not rare, and the cues
ton is at least just one, whether
the method adopted by these men in
the end results advantageously for
themselves or others. While there is
f. cry all along the line for less high
pressure in business, in education and
social aff9irs, can not our preachers
read just our spiritual interests to the
same moderation that is demanded
elsewhere Our welfare for this world
and other worlds alike requires less
extravaganza and more temperan &c
all through. Have we yet caught the
real spirit OF temperance as d social
and religious principle?

reigned The plenipotentiarles awaited
Prince Bismarck in the lobby, and as soon
as he arrived they went with him to the hall
of the federal council, where they held

habit is more destructive that the
habitual use Of opium, and is becom-
