Woes upon Liquor Sellers. Every unregenerated man or per

son not born ot God, is a rebel against ,his maker. Before God's

justice there are no good sinners,

AH unbelievers in Christ, who continue so, will be lost. They will be turned into hell with all who re

ject the baviour. v lien any one

sins he is guilty ot violating all the commandments. The practice of some men, however, is worse than

others, and the ruinous influences sent forth by them ore very demoralizing. A person and his profession or occupation are so identical that we substitute one for the other. When we say the Presidency of a college pays a good salary, we mean the President receives good wages. When we say the Dry Goods business has been a failure, we imply that merchants have lost money. When wc say farming, this year, is a good occupation, we signify farmers are prospering. When we say the selling of intoxicating drinks as a bavcrage is very injurious to the people, we indicate liquor sellers are engaged in bad employment, and good citizens will not undertake a ruinous and nefarious business. The occupation, liquor selling and liquor sellers are identical in effect. hatever evil influences or ruinous

results are produced by the liquor traffic, liquor dealers aro accountable for both to God and m.in. Humanity pronounces a woe upon the liquor seller, because he is

accessory to the destruction of prop-

The grain is destroyed and the It

quor dealer 19 the direct agent in causing the destruction. The money

pent by those who bought and

drank the liquors is a complete loss

to them. J. he capital, stock of a

country insisted in the strong drink

traffic changes hands,but, is not augmented. What ' one gains nnotAM1- loses,

Though some men get rich in the

liquor business.the btute is the poorer for its drinking saloons. Ther the time used by the consumer in goingr after his drinks, the days

spent in drunkenness and the hours

eked out in the gambling saloon, which is always in or near the drinking saloon, are all a loss to the country. This liquor business then

destroys property and time. So liquor sellers are moths nnd tankers in the country, which destroy with

out imparting any value. A second

woe humanity pronounces upon

liquor dealers is, because they take

men s property without giving them

an equivalent in value. A man works a day, or pays two dollars more or less, and receives a gallon, say of the best liquors ; he has not an equivalent for his money. He would be far better off if he should pour out the ruinous stuff and fill his vessel with pure cold water. Hence the liquor traffic is taking or openly stealing the money of another without giving him an equivalent. Those who are engaged in a stealing business, common sense wouldjin mild language,call thieves. A third woe God and humanity pronounces on liquor dealers, is, because they are engaged in the destruction of human life. No one denies that thousands, every year, fill a drunkard's grave, are brought to the scaffold, or are killed outrigiit in a drunken or gambling affray a result of the liquor business. If there were no strong drinks made or sold, there could be no loss of life in this tJisgrncefttt-way. The selling of strong drinks as a beverage, is a murdering business. Men engaged in such a wholesale murdering business, may be called in the most moderate terms, murderers. Such are already condemned. The wrath of God abideth on them. "For the wrath of God is revealed against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men." A fourth tvoe God and humanity pronounces upon liquor dealers, is, because they are directly opposed to godliness and Christianity. The liquQt business tends to keep men from the house of public worship, prevents them from attending sunday school, and docs not encourage the reading of the Bible. This miserable bnsinest encourages indolence, gambling, stealing, licentiousness, lying, fight

ing, murdenng.and all the sins flesh is subject to. Is there anything too low or mean which some men, if not many, made drunk by the liquor bought of the saloon keeper, would not do. If they hud not had the poisonous stuff to inflame their passions, their better judgment in most cases, would have prevailed. It is an ungodly business. It is opposed to God and humanity. The Saviour says : "He that is not with me is against me ; aud he that gathercth not with nie scattereth abroad." Who ever heard of an old dealer or saloon keeper, persuading sinners to come to Christ? Did ever a

dram seller pray in his family, or i with penitent souls ? Is there any

christian man in the whole land standing in a saloon dealing out the liquid fire to habitual drinkers'? The occupation of the saloon keeper is the service of the devil. Lei. all who have any self respect, any family pride, any love of country, any humanity, any reverence for their creator, close out and quit this nefarious and awfully ruinous business Come out of the devil's ranks antl be good citizens. Yield to your better judgment. Be men. Be an honor to your fam -il'. Let truth nnd holiness beam forth from your being. Know ye, the "memory of the just is blessed, but the name of the wicked filial I rot."

SPThe Bedford Altos seems to be ft little opposed to tlie sixteenth amendment, judging from the tone of the following article ; "Mrs. Rev. J. It. Duncan harangued quite a respectable audience in the Baptist Church, on the evening of the 11th inst., on the subject, of the "Right of Woman to the Ballot." In justice to the lady, wc are compelled to say her effort, so far as oratorical merit is concerned, was a fair one. The large sum collected, at the close of the lecture, for the purpose of remunerating the Rev. femaie lecturer, (two dollars, mostly in nickels), however, confirms us in our belief that the sensible women of Bedford and they are all sensible are fully satisfied that their duties toward the rising generation do not require them to

leave the higher and holier duties of

mother for the purpose ot entering into the disreputable business of politics. "Just as we finished writing the above, our eye struck the following paragraph in one of our Missouri exchanges, and w; copy it for the double purpose of saving labor and, at the same time, expressing our general opinion in regard to the turbulent and exciting question : "'Aside from a few dried-up scoop-breastetl, raw-boned, thin-vis-aged, skin-tightened, ball-pa ted old maids, and here and there a baby-

less wife, grass-widow and brawling termagant, there ore not a dozen healthy, robust, sound-minded women in the State that would vote for female suffrage, if the question was submitted to their decision.' "

The Wrong Man Poulticed. At a famous and fashionable watering place,a gentle,man one night was suddenly seized in bed with an excruciating pain in the stomach, which neither brandy, No. 6, nor any other remedy could remove.

His wife, after trying a number of

things in vain, and having exhausted all her stock of remedies, left her husband's bsdside for the purpose of getting a warm application. Guided on her return by a light which she saw shining in a chamber, and which she supposed was the one just left, she softly entered, and was not a little surprised to find her patient in a deep slumber. However, thinking he might still be sufferings-she gently raised the bed clothes, &c, and laid the scalding poultice upon a stomach but not the stomach of her husband which no sooner touched the body of the person than he, greatly alarmed.and

writhing under the torture of the

burning application,shouted : "Hal

loo! halloo! what in the name of

heaven and earth are you about there ?" then with one spring from his bed, he made for the door, and, rushing down stairs, declared, in a

frenzy of excitement, that some one had poured a shovelful of hot coals upon him. The woman, overcome with excitement and alarm, gave a

frantic scream, which brought her

husband hurriedly in from the next

room to her rescue. The husband

was so much excited, and also much

amused with the singular mistake

and the . ridiculous position of his

better half, that he forgot all his puins ; but early next morning he, his wife and trunks, left for parts unknown. The poulticed gentleman still retains the handkerchief, a rare lirien fabric, with the latly's name on it, which he considers of

rare value.

Still Coming. Prussia enacted a law last January making military duty compulsory with all citizens, which is causing a large emigration to this country. The Mennonitcs, a peculiar religions sect opposed to war and capital punishment, are preparing to move in a body, and will perhaps settle inTennessee. There are twelve or fifteen thousand of them in Prussia. Of the sect which was founded in Hoi laud in the sixteenth century there are probably one hundred thousand members already settled in this country, chiefly in Pennsylvania. They are called Baptist by church historian-, but baptize by sprinkling, and observe the practice of feet washing, and allow no marriages out of the church. m m m Senator Garrett Davis is not supposed to be particularly un amiable, neither is he accredited with a humorous turn of mind. Yet when Senator Sumner proposed to give negroes equal privileges with the whites in the centetries of the land, Mr. Davis said this met his entire approval. He was willing, indeed, that the whole race should come into possession of the proposed privilege forthwith.

Mr. Toorlices' Greencastle

Speech In 1S61. Muncie, April 22nd, 1870. To the Editor of the Indianapolis

Journal:

Bin : Some weeks ago I noticed

in your paper an article under the

caption "He Did Say it," in refer

ence to a speecii made by JUan.

Voorhecs, at Greencastle, about the

time Fort Sumter was attacked in

18(il.

I was a student at Asbury Uni

versity at the time and together with many other students, heard

that famous speech, and I must say in reference to that part of his

speech which has been so often and so widely quoted, that it has been

most wretchedly garbled, lhose who have heard Mr. Voorhees speak know something of the fiendish vehemence of his style, the devilish

malignity of his denunciation of

opponents, Ins stiti-neekcd defiance of all enemies. Much of this is lost

by reading instead of hearing the

speech, yet the language used was

much more empnatto tnan that us

ually quoted.

According to my recollection his stvlo was something like the fol

lowing : He averred that he would

"not vote one man, not one dollar, not one horse, not one wagon, no not even one wheelbarrow to assist this

Black Republican Administration in tho prosecution of a war upon the South."

In the same speech he claimed that ho could prove by their public acts for the last ten years, that every member of the Administration was

a traitor.

I believe I saw, somewhere in 18G3, a long list of resolutions that v.-.,. rrj fr fi-ip 7 ; rjn. !iprn the

We have heard much about the poets who "touch the heirt of the people." This is our only comment : Bryant is worth 500,000 ; Longfellow,? 200,000; Holmes,?100,0')0; Saxe, 70,000; Boker, 8100,000; Lowell, $40,000, and Whittier, 30,000. How about the pockets of the people ? - Not long ago three young ladies were riding in an English railway carriage, when one of them who was leaning against the door, fell out antl was killed. The guard, whose duty it was to lock the tloor, was so horror stricken at the accident that he immediately cut hia throat. A short time afterward a

eighteen or twenty people and

wounding many more. The con

ductor of the freight train, who

seems to have been alone to blame, was so horror stricken at the accident that he immediately cut his stick. The English guard took to his knife ; the American conductor took to his heels.
