JOHN WESLEY On H LIQUOR MONSTER.
Rev. John Wesley gave this burning
testimony against the crime OF liquor
selling;
"Those who sell this poison murder
men by wholesale. Neither does their
eye pity nor spare. They drive them to
hell like sheep. And what is their gam?
Is it not the blood OF these men? Who,
then, would envy their large estates
and sumptous palaces? A curse is in
the midst Of them; the curse of God
cleaves to the stones, the timber, the
furniture OF them! The curse of God is
IN their gardens, their walls, their groves;
a fire that burns to the nethermost hell!
Blood, blood ls there; the foundation.
the floors, the walls, the roof
are stained with blood. And canst
thou hope, 0 thou man OF blood,
though thou art clothed in scarlet and
fine linn, and farest sumptously every
day'-canst thou hope to deliver down
thy fields Of blood to the third genera
ton? Not SO; for there Is a God in
heaven; therefore, thy name shall soon
be rooted out. Like as those whom
thou hast destroyed, body and soul,
thy memorial shall perish with thee 7"
Does any one suppose Mr.. Wesley
could have been induced to vote for
men who stood for making the crime Of
liquor selling lawful?

denounced the so-called attempt to close
