The Presbyterian general assembly
of Canada, at Halifax, recently de-
clared that ''the general traffic in in
toxicating liquors is contrary to the
word of God and to the spirit of the
christian religion; that total prohibit
tion would be the most effective form
of temperance legislation; that it is in
the highest degree expedient that the
state should pass an efficient pro-
hibitory law, and therefore the assem-
bly, urge upon all the members to use
all legitimate means to secure such
legislation"

English Capital in American Beer.
The statement appears to be well
authenticated that the representatives
of an English beer syndicate are seek
ing to gain control of brewery prop
erty to large extent in this country.
They are said now to control thirty
of the largest of our American brew
cries, and that they are about to add
six to their number by purchases in
Baltimore at an aggregate cost of 3d.
100000. These English beer capital
lists are destined in due time, we have
no doubt, to come to grief. The decis-
ion of the United States supreme court
in the Kansas cases is fair notice to
them in advance that they make their
beer making investment upon an inse-
cure legal tenure; that the states may
at any time, in the legitimate exercise
Of their police power, peremptorially
close up their breweries as public nu.
isances. with redress therefor in the
way of compensation. What the SUI
preme court says may be done in the
way of outlawing the brewing bust
ness the American people are quite GER
tain ultimately TO do National Tenn
perance Advocate.

., Infants Injured by Tobacco Smoke.
In Babyhood, a monthly magazine
devoted to the welfare of childhood,
attention is called to tobacco smoke
as a frequent cause of illness in young
children. After referring to the
prevalent indifference on the part of
those who smoke to the discomfort
occasioned thereby to others, it says:
Yet many habitual smokers avoid a
smoking car or smoking cabin; and
we have known many men in good
health who have been obliged to give
up attendance at their fayorite clubs
because their fellow members smoked
so excessively as to cause them an i'll
ness. We have even known strong
man, who rarely used tobacco, in need
of medical aid from attending d.
rectors' meeting, held in rather
small room, where the majority
smoked during the meeting while he
did not" 1t adds: "With these facts
before us, who can DOUBT the erect
upon infants and young children be-
fore they acquire habituation. If a
child is poorly with poor appetite,
is languid, ETC.. it is always worth
while to inquire if this source of
poisoning exists" This is timely
caution, much needed in many house
holds. We once heard the late DR..
Willard Parker declare his belief,
based upon his large professional
experience, that the lives of many
young delicate children are sacrificed
by thoughtless smoking in their pres
ence by their fathers and others.-l Va

The Tyrant Rum.

AIR-Littie Widow Damn.
Oh, there is an occupation, as you've doubtless
heard before,
That every decent, honest man viii shun,
A cursed goddess traffic, which increases more
and more
With the rising and the setting of each sun.
There are those who do not scruple,
80 their money they quadruple,
To hll and tlll again the poisoned bowl,
Their selfish hearts are stony,
IT'S money, only money
Not much TO them the ruined drunkards soul.
CHORUS
Whiskey, brandy, are quite handy,
Wine and lager, gin and rum,
Free and easy, they would please ye,
And are calling. ITO our dram shops, neigh
bors come"
The poor mothers heart is breaking, as he stag
gers TO the door;
Her pride, her hope perchanee her only son
Do not slight her look appealing, but enforce
Save the lad, the downward road he's just
begun.
Oh, forgive the youthful folly,
He thought only to be jolly
Kindly win him to a higher, nobler way,
Blot out these dens of evil,
Creations of the devil,
Who, in ambush, waits TO seize his witless prey.
Come, ye sluggish, sleepy Christians, who in
Shake off this frightful stupor, every one.
Raise your voices unto Heaven, as you drop up
And ask God to show you what is to be done.
See the fOaming liquid glisten,
To the bar-room loafers listen,
Hear the wrangling hear the idiotic laugh;
Would to God we were but dreaming,
Hear the cursing, the disappearing,
As the deadly beverage of hell they quaf.
Let the clergy call meeting on the next fair
Sunday morn,
As long enough ago they should have done;
With one voice arouse the people, till senti-
ment is born
That shall snake the old White House at
WashingtOnN
Let them never fear disaster
But cry loudly TO the master.
He has promised that Hell not forsake his own.
Let them show brave decision
For the wicked in derision
He shall have who sitteth on His fathers
throne.

In 1852 the AbolitiOnists must have
been somewhat startled when the
Presidential election returns showed
that their vote of 291 900 at the
preceding presidential election had
shrunken to 10000. But that proved
to be just the hour before the break
of day. Those brave Abolitionists
were not discouraged, but girded up
their loins and went forward to
victory.
