on to-morrow

morning and evening at the Presbyterian Church on 7th street. This is the last Sabbath of the year. The last also before the congregation occupy the upper room of their church, and the closing Sabbath of Mr. Morrison's first ministerial year among us. His subject at 11 o'clock will be tbe "Sin of Professors of Religion in robbing God by Gossiping, Backbiting, and by mutual jealousies toward each oth ors." His subject at 7 o'clock will be the "Believer's Code of Honor." The public are invited.

The Ipstallation of the offiwa of

Terre Haut^.Chapter No. 11, R. A. M., was witnessed last evening by the Craft and a large audience of ladies and gentlemen. Previous to the interesting ceremonies, after prayer by the Chaplain and singing by a portion of the MUSICAL Association, Rev. Wm. Graham delivered

interesting and well written address on the principles and teachings of Masonry.— 'The officers DI the Chapter -were then installed by Deputy Grand High Priest,

Wm. Graham, assisted by Deputy Grand Marshal L. A. Smith. The address and the beautiful ceremony of mstallrtion were listened to

deep attention, and

doubtless favorably impressed the un-' initiated with tho teachings of the Ancient and Mystic Order.

GAS METERS iv WINTEK.—The Philadelphia Ledger jrsafcos some useful migge"tions relativo'to gai metcra in winter. As the winter is appiuarhing it may be well to

the. best wa\ to prevent the

water in our gas meter? Iroin u.pring, and thus avoid the consequent annoyance of want of light. One or two pint of glycerine, well mixed with the water, are sufficient for middle-sized met«r. but the quantity must be increased in proportion to the degree of cold to which the meter is exposed. It possesses another advantage, namely: It retards the evaporation of the water, which continually akes plarc. and also results in ihe sudden extinguishing of the light? v.hen the quantity of "*at.T become too •small. A sufficient amount of glycerine in the meter will prevent this evaporation entirely, and obviate an accident not rarely seen in places where r. great maty gas burners are turned on—for instance, in church during service, or in the house when there is a party. Glycerine will remedy all. It has been in use for this purpoee for some time by tbe Philadelphia

Private Members of the Church—Respectable Citizens, Lawyer*, Merchants, Mechanics, whose Influence is against the Christian Sabbath.

In a previous issue, we adverted to the influence of the Pastors of this city, and concluded that tbe blame for the Sabbath desecration among us is not to be attached to them. Wonowpa33to consider how far— (2.) The private members of the church are responsible for this state of case. While we do not desire to screen the members of the church from tho responsibilities which God has imposed upon them, yet candor compels us to say that among the people of the arid, there is a chronic disposition to excuse themselves from duty, because ppradventure some feeble professor of religion fails in doing what God and the church exacts of him.' That professed Christian who finds no interest at the meetings of the Bible-class or for prayer, during the"week, who allows the"smallest pretext, suph as fatigue, a promised visit to the country, want of what the fashionables may

dpftm suitable apparel, an inclement

day, or a slight indisposition, to keep him from the house of God. Ho that dishonors the name of tho Master, whom he professes to serve by surrendering to the world its habits and diversions, and thereby defiles tho lofty and noble spirit which our holy religion inspires. He that professes to be a Christian and on the Sabbath day resorts to places of dissipation, does wrong. Aye, worse than this, he prostitutes his own soui and insults God. But these sins and faults of the weak and erring professor of religion are no pleas for the man of the world. Where we are not responsible, God does not intend to blame U3 for the bad deeds of others, or commend us for their good ones. While it is a burning shame that any professed Christian should dishonor our religion in any of these methods, yet those who are not in the church need not trouble themselves over much about matters which do not affect their own cases..

And if any Christian man or woman who reads these lines, is guilty ot any of tbo3e sins or failings in duty, which are too low and base for a spirit made noble by the purchase of our King if any FOR get the sanctity of the Sabbath and their conduct strengthened tha moral power of THQAN who desecrated it. let them penitently return to'God aifR their dtity. Professors of religion whose testimony in their lives are against a proper observance of the Sabbath have a grave responsibility resting upon them and such ought to blush with shame that they dishonor the Lord of the Sabbath by thus dishonoring his Sabbaths. ,.«««. (S) But there ia still another class of our citizens to whom much blame attaohand we proceed to their

cases.

Those who have been honored, aye blessed by God, the descendants of pious parents or the providential recipient of distinguishing of favors owe much to God and the church. The saviour of whose life his brought down to them a state of society that makes their lots what they are. Men who are placef under so great obligations because of what religion has secured to them even though not themselves the children of God ought to honor God and his SabUths. The impulses of honor an«I respectability ought to prompt such to give to tho church by their sanction and personal presence statedly in the House of God on his consecrated day their decided influence. "Then there is a second class of persons in the bosom of our society whose influence in behalf of Sabbath desecration is decided—I refer to those gentlemen who report to saloons on the Sabbath day—If gentlemen are compelled to indulge on the Sabbath why not do it at home, and thus avoid following oris sin that of vndulguig by another, that of Sabbath desecration. Upon an occasion of an interview between the writer and tbe proprietor of a prominent saloon in the city the latter attempted to exhonorate himself by arguing that ho was compels ledj to keep his saloon at cartion hours accessible to persons ot so high respectability as-those who resorted to his house. While unwilling to_hear the namesf of such as were appealed to as necessitating such Sabbath daseeration for their indulgence we blushed ana do ,blush that this is too true, that respectability and endorsement is given to the flagrant outrages perpetrated agiiiust our Chrestian Sabbath by perious resorting to such places on God's day, whose influence might be thrown, and oue ht to be in fa^or, of proper observanco ot' our Christian Sabbath.

Those

respectable citizens who seldom honor themselves by their personal presence in the house of God. Amongthese there are two classes. In almost every community there is a class embracing among its numbers gentlemen, it may be of attainment, of eminence as citizens. Men who are honored and deserve to BE honored because of their position and influence as lawvers, politicians, merchants, mechanics, physicians, FCC., ixien who regard it as .highly reputable that their families should go to the house of God and themselves so far respect the Christian Sabbath as to spend the part of the day usually consecrated by religious people to God either quietly at their homes or at some office or counting room. These persons do not intend their courae as an indignity to Him whose sovereign right to their respect, is enjoinsd upon them by an authority transcendently high and'from which there is from the nature of tho case, no appeal

Mr. Editor:—The author of the very well written.letter in your issue of this morning, signed "Justice," represents a cjass IN this community to whom I desire to make one or two suggestions. I infer that "Justice" is a member of some church elsewhere than in Terra, Haute that he came here with the laudable: purpose of improving HID own or his tfantily'S circumstances that he attended for tome time the ministrations of the church kindred to that with which *he had taen formeriy affiliated, and, receiving'no cordial welcome* but rather, being '"coolly treated and stared at'1 as A& intruder, ho has been repelled from tbe house of God, and now spends his Sabbaths at -home. Whether this be true of "Justice" or not, he represents, and, 1 doubt not, with perfect truthfulness, that such is the case with some in our city. First, let me say that the charge that "the congregations are wanting in sociability," &c., is too true, at least of some of our churches, and tbat with which LAM connected is npt. the least guilty.

far am I from attempting

to conceal or excuse this fault that I publicly and privately rebuke it, and £V(AIL to find words to express

my ^delestanoK

the pride, or my regret at the carelessness from which it spring-. Having made this frank avowal, the honesty of which my whole public course attests, I desiro now to put one or two questions to "Justice," and through HINT to ,the many who neglect public 'religious^ worship on the Sabbitb, because of the coldness and unsocial spirit of those who do attond upon these services.

it right for {any man, especially for any Christian to give up public worship on this account We agree that it would bo pleasanter, that it would be better for all concerned, if there were a proper "Christian -V llowship," if there were no foolish pride, no carelessness on the part of any. But I press the question upon the consciences, of Christians, especially, whether it is right thus to- siiffer themselves to be defrauded of the privileges of the sanctuary, its prayers, its teachings,

its holy feasts, .and the private as well

public ministrations of its pastor? ILet mo in all kindness ask, are you doing right 9 Are you thus honoring

Christ

If the church kindred to your own is greatly at fault in this respect, aro there not in the city others, where you would be welcome If not, or if you greatly prefer your own, can: you not acceptably worship Gcd, hold communion with your Blessed Master, receive the influences of the Divine Spirit, even though in a congregation of proud or careless sinners Let me also say just herei that while some —many, perhaps, are proud or careless, there aro in every one of our congregations some earnest, devout, affectionate Christians. W&R £LET me suggest th question—I v, ill not make the charge—may it not not be in the case of some of these, that the very same cause, viz: pride, or because "they merely look at externals," keeps them from the house of God, which makes those who do attend "treat with the utmost coolness and hauteur strangers who desire to enter their charmed circle." if ft*

There is not more beautiful example of sincere and aeceptible worship on record than that of Him who offered his humble prayer in the presence of the proud Pharisee, and even while made the the object of the Pharisee's contempt.

Christian reader, is it not better to go to God's temple even with Pharisees, than to be kept away BY their presence.

Fe'ter iftd kgue is1 iiivklriabty^tuiei by denu^^i]^ Liver, bro(%ht on by malaria, whichat certain seasons of the year ariS in dilT^reht localities affects the air. The symptoms of this complaint are too :wte)Vkn9wn jto need aqy: exMBdat description. The attack is generally preceded by a doll torpid feeling an indispo sition to activity, a feeling of listlessness and desire to be left alone. Then comes a hot raging fever, followed by an extremely cold chilly sensation. In many parts of the United States this disease is periodical. Quinine is the main reliance of phvsicians in treating thin disease. If this fails then they resort to their cure-all mercury, than which there is no remedial agent that has inflicted more injury, lasting injury, on the human race. Thousands upon thousands are now suffering the dire effects of mercuty. During the late rebellion the evils of tnis noxious drug became so evident tbat its use was proscribed in the army and navy. Tet in civil practice we find physicians using, it daily. True it is tbat by the powerful action on th6 Liver it usually checks FevAr and Ague, but it invariably leaves the patient more liable to future atacks of1 the same disease, and tains the "human form divine" into a walking thermometer, subject to ills untold at every variation of the atmosphere.

Mishler's Bitters are gufettttlteed to cure every case of Fe *er and Ague thoroughly, without leaving any ill effects behind.— Peruvian Bark vhich enters Isrgely into their compo ition acting in combination with the other articles-used in thfese Bitters render them a certain andsafe specific' in curing Fever and Ague, no matter of how long standing. They not only remove the complaint but by their tonic properties render the persons using them innoous to the malaria that is usually the cause of this distressing malady. Persons living in districts subject to Sever and Agu« (or as it is sometimes called Chills and Fever) or those whose occupation calls them to be much exposed to the night air, should use Mishler's Bittors. If they diink a wine-glass full three times a day they can laugh the "Shakes" to scorn.
