THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT.
The nioreuieut of the ladiet against
the saloon and grogliops if j.rorr--iiig
favorably. From every portion of the
land come the tiding tliat a new iiitreKt
lias been awakened in the cau.se of tem
perance, and each day brings the news
of tlie downfall of home rtrongln.1'1 of
intemperance l-fore the prayer of the
ladieM. The moveuient hoe, in most pla
ces, panfced itti novelty t-tage, and the de
tails, which were devoured w eagerly by
the reading public in the outrfart, are
now omitted by the newc-gatlierer, and
the salient features of the crusade only
are sought after. It is not that the work
is flagging, or that thone engaged in it
are less determined, but becaut the bat
tle Las opened all along the lines, and
the minutiae of detail which was inter
esting in the first scattering shots on the
itkinoish line Lave been lost sight of in
the general roar and din of the conflict.
Hence, while the w ork has lost some of
its novelty, it has lort none of its ear
nestness; indeed, it may be truly , said,
that each succe.stiive stage of the con
flict develops a deeier earnestness, and
a higher type of heroism on the part of
the ladies.
Of the ultimate success of the move
ment, we have not the slightest doubt.
By this we do not mean that every sa
loon in the land w ill be closed by tliis
process of prayer and song; in the na
ture of things such could not be so, un
less, indeed, this is the lx-guining of the
iuilleDinui. What we do mean is, that
it will be a success in the breaking of
the terrible power that King Alcohol
Las so long wielded in the land, and that
it will relieve more of God's creation
from the bondage of intemperance than
were freed from the bondage of slavery
by the late civil war. It will be a suc
cess in that its influence will be exerted
throughout the annals of time, and in
the great cycle of eternity, many aye,
very many who shall join in the "song
of Moses and the Lamb," w ill date their
first song of joy from the women's cru
sade of 1871.
CONGRESS.
March 23. In the Senate, among a
number of memorials presented, was
one from certain umnulacturing firms
in Ohio, calling for more currency, the
funny part of which was that it had to
be preheuted by rienator Morton. There
was the usual discussion on finances.
In the House the mining bill, from the
rsenato excited some discussion. The
debate on tha inter-fSt&te railway com
merce bill was continued from the pre
vious day. but no vote was taken.
March 20. The Chairman of the Sen
ate remarked that iik ihIxts were get
ting carelet about the manner of pre
senting petitions, and called their atten
tion to the fact that they were not per
mitted to make extended remarks upon
those petitions. Mr. Logan presented a
petition for inflation, and proceeded
forthwith to trespass the rule as given,
but was called to order. On the new
currency bill a number of amendments
were presented. On fixing the amount
of circulation at fcitKi.OOO.OUU was
agreed to. Mr. Merriinou projiosed a
substitute for the bill, somewhat less
stringent in its provisions, which re
mains to be voted on to-morrow. In
the House, Mr. Dawes presented a res
olution, which was jiassed, providing
that L'nited States notes and bonds may
be printed in parts, ai;d at different
places, for the sake of safety. The inter-State
railroad commerce bill was
voted upon, and passed by a vote of 121
to 1C1. A resolution was introduced
and referrd, providing for the admis
sion of Kew .Mexico as a State.
March 27. In the Seimte, yesterday,
a resolution was agreed to, which in
structs the Secretary of War to send to
the Senate the engineer's report, in re
pird to the proposed St. lxmis Hridge.
Another resolution asking from the Sec
retary of the Treaury a statement of
the amount due the government from
Paymasters, etc., was iuid on the table.
Mr. Morrill withdrew his amendment of
the currency bilL After some discus
sion on Mr. Ijogan's amendment to Mr.
Merriniou's subMituie, the former with
drew tliat amendment also, in order to
give Senator Morton a chance to offer a
t-e-tiou. In the 1 louse, tne lull amend
atory of former currency acts, and pro
viding for free banking was discussed,
toth in the day and evening sessions.
To-day's nessioa is to be devoted to the
same debate.
March iw. Several bills were re
ported from the Committee on Public
jin.l. in the Senate. A number of va
cancies were filled in various commit
tees. Several amendments offered to
the finance bill were rejected, and the
time for adjournment came before the
motion of Senator Morton, to strike out
the fourth section.liad been voted upan.
In the House, after the call of States,
the Louisville & Portland Canal bill was
taken up and discussed, but went over
until to-morrow.
March 31. In the Senate, a report
was uiade favorable to the coinage of
the proposed twenty cent pieces. Va
rious amendments looking to more or
less contraction, were promptly voted
down, under the consideration of the fi
nancial bi!L Mr. Morton's tuotion to
strike out the fourth section of the biil,
was passed. Pending this motion, rule
12 of the Seimte was amended, so as to
give motions to amend any part pr 'posed
to be stricken out precedence of a mo
tion to strike out. In the House, after
Mr. Wheeler had proposed his amend
ment to the Louisville Canal bill, he
made a speech upon it. and the bill was
passed with the amendment. A bill for
the relief of the Vienna Kxposition Com
missioners, was referred to the Comuiit
tre on Foreign Affairs, and the House
adjourned.
TnK Legislature of Massachusetts has
not yet succeeded in iu electing a suc
cessor to Mr. Sumner. Ballots have been
had daily for the past week in joint con
vention, but without a choice. Dawes
has the lead, with Hoar and Curtis fol
lowingclose after. Dawes is gaining all
the time, and unless a combination is
formed n gainst him, his chances are good
for election. Mr. Snmner was elected
the first time, after a severe struggle,
and it seems that his successor will have
an equally hard conflict.
Thk Senate Democratic caucus of the
Oliio Legislature seem to have as much
trouble in agreeing upon a bill to redis
trict the State as their friends in the
House. Much dissatisfaction was ex
pressed in caucus, and one or two dem
ocrats expressed their determination to
fight the bill in open Senate. But it is
inor than likely that all will be coaxed
or whipped into the support of the bilL
Thk steamer Crescent City exploded
both ht r boilers, a few miles below Mem
phis, on the 24 ult, by wl-ich eleven
were instantly and six wounded. The
entire front part of the boat was de
stroyed, and she sank soon after. No
cauSe is yet assigned for the explosion.
Gov. ALLKX has appointed Geokok
W. Manypkxxt, of Franklin, Lixcolx
(. Dkxaxo, of Ross, and Wx. D. Mor
gan, oLicking, Commissioners of the
Central Lunatic Asylum, under the law
recently passed. The nominations are
said to be good ones.
The mountains in Korth Carolina
which have been threatening to break
forth for the past few days are still on
the rampage, and the people are still
fleeing from what they consider the
"wrath to come."
DUTY OF THE HOUR.
Synapsis of a Sermon preached at the First
Presbyterian Church, Findlay, Ohio, by
Rev. Eben Muse, March 29, 1874.

"There is," says the por t, "a tide in
the affairs of men. which, taken at tl:'
flood leaIs on to fortune." There is a
decisive hour in the field of Imttl", when
one final chary will seal victory or de
feat. There is a decisive hour in the
history of the soul, when that soul will
finally choose salvation, or finally reject
it, to be alaiiIoiid by the spirit of Gk!
and abandoned forever. There is a de
cisive hour in the history of the nation
and community, when that nation or
community is in the agony of a mighty
struggle between right and wrong; a de
cisive hour, when victory lias decided
for the right, and a decisive hour when
it is determini-d whether tliat victory
shall lie lasting or whether its fruits
shall be lost.
Such an hour lias come to this com
munity, and such an hour I trust is coin
ing to the land. A conflict has arisen
over the broad land between the out
raged moral sentiment of the country
and the demon of intemperance which,
says Judge West late of the Supreme
Court) sacrifices yearly at its base altar
one hundred thousand victims, which
yearly expends a sum equal to one hall
of the national debt, which entails mil
lions of those deeper agonies of ruined
homes and broken hearts which are
never written and never known, and
more tlian all, which sends its myriads
into a drunkard's hell.
This conflict is an answer of God to
many prayers which have long gone up ;
and at length, God, whose ways are not
as our ways, has answered by setting up
a strange banner against the flood of
intemperance, and woman, Christ's first
I and last friend, has suddenly, and most
justly appeared on the scene, and glori
ously triumphed with the weapons of
love and prayer. The battle has been
short, but because it has been short and
bloodless, it is more florious than Auster
litz or Waterloo or Gettysburg. And
here, let me say, the hour after the battle
is a critical hour. We may become in
toxicated with victory, and fall asleep
to awaken up bound hand and foot by
the same enemy. There are just as
many men ready to enter that traffic
against which God says "woe to him
that putteth the bottle to his neighbor
to make him drunken," as those who
have forsaken it. There are Haiuans
still, who would fatten on the miseries of
a whole nation. There are Esaus still,
who would sell their birthright and their
neighbor's birthright for a mess of pot
tage. If we think there is now nothing
for us to do we are greviously mistaken.
There always has been moral sentiment
enough and law enough to blot out in
temperance, but the trouble has been
tliat that moral sentiment lias been
asleep. At lust it, ashamed of its sleep,
has woke up. It has recognized the
law, and enacted more law, and it will
be a burning shame if the men of l-'iiid-lay
don't seul this bloodless victory with
the solemn decree before God and men
that the plague of the liquor traffic shall
never again destroy us.
We can't expect our women to kneel
and pray on the sidewalks forever. I
believe that the heroism which led them
in this battle would keep tiiem ill it until
death; if necda !, and better that they
should stand and pray until the day of
death rather than the liquor traffic go
on. Better tl.at woman should die pub
licly, as she almost died a few dajs ago
in Cleveland, than wives, husbands and
children should die in secret sorrow and
be buried iu a grave dug by ruin. Let
us regard the liquor traffic and drunken
ness as crimes. Let us remember that
God lias ordained civil government for
the enforcement of law; tliat God holds
communities responsible for demanding
tliat rulers enforce law, and when all
this is done, then we will be done with
the howl of mayors, councils, judges and
juries, tliat "there isn't public sentiment
enough to back them." That man who
could stand and see the grandmother
with tottering steps, the young wife
leaving her crying children, the drunk
ard's wife emerging from her home of
poverty, and the young girl, all kneeling
in solemn prayer to God at the entrance
of these slaughter-houses of our youth,
and say that the laws can't be enforced,
which calls for such a sacrifice, is not
worthy of the name of man.
I have selected this Psalm, so little
quoted, because it seems to suit, and
precisely suit, the duty of the hour. In
that censure which God, through this
Psalm, showers upon wicked officials,
he first reminds them of their mission.
"Defend the poor and the fatherless
rid them out of the hand of the wicked."
I w ish, w lieu her husband has been slain
by rum, or is worse than dead, w hen she
takes her sad case into the courts, and
is first worried by all the miserable quib
bles and tielays of law, and next is
mocked by a monstrous decision "five
dollars and cost," I wish she could
have some Paul to stand beside these
Felix-like judges, who would tell them
of "temperance, righteousness and judg
ment to come," until like the other Felix
they might tremble, if no more.
"How long will ye judge unjustly and
accept the persons of the wicked?"
Does not tliis seem like a prophecy of
to-day, when the evil man with his
money triumphs over judges, juries,
courts and legislatures, though that
money be the price of tears and blood?
4 "They walk on in darkness: all the
foundations of the earth are out of
course." The picture of that day is the
picture of this. Jewish society crumbled
because, as David said, the "vilest of
men are exalted;" and our society will
crumble just as soon, unless we learn
God's message to us
Tl T ri'KK AND GOOD MEN IS OFFICE.
Here we are met by the modern po
litical war cry "principles, not men."
This is the exact counterpart of the cry
one hundred years ago when "men, not
principles," had made 'hero-worship" a
science. Jw the truth is, men and
principle, both. Let us have enacted
always those laws, which are the reflec
tion of Gh1's laws; let us have men and
not broke: -lown political gamblers to
enforce thoee laws; let the citizens who
elect rememlier their joint responsibility,
and denuuid the enforcement of those
laws.
But says one, "Tliis is a political mat
ter. Let this alone. Go and preach the
gospeL" Put. my dear sir, sin must not
nine itself under the cloak of State, and
say "hands off." Religion proposes to
handle every sin under heaven. This
Jewish nation was a nation whose re
ligion was their laws, and whose laws
were their religion. Moses was a giant
statesman. Coleridge says in his Sides
man' Manual : "The prophets of Israel
are the politicians and statesmen of the
world." "In them," says Gladstone, "is
seen a vision of society for all mankind,
a foundation f'-r i-.li natioi..-." This is
one ! !-on of t!.e hour, to J ;it rar I '-t
men in po-iiions of trn-t. And another
is to t;:ke all needful steps to
SEE THAT GOOD MEN SECURE SUCH POSITIONS.

ENFORCE LAW AND PUNISH CRIME.
I formerly remarked to you that the
failure to puni-h crime ()ne ,f the
ilarke-t stains on the civilization of the
15th century. But preventive is better
than cure. If a few feeble women can
semi their pickets to watch by night and
day the fountain head of crime, can't
the law do the same.' Cannot it send its
sjcial police, or even stronger powers,
to guard every suspected tioint; Further,
let our codes of justice
BEWARE OF LICENSING CRIME.
The State puni-hes a crime she calls
"compounding with felony." Let her
beware of herxdf conqioundiiig with
crime by legalizing it in any form. But
what are we coming to? Our great cities
are radiating centres of influence, and
in St. Louis, the large city in the West,
prostitution, the vilest crime against
God and man, is licensed by law. The
same measure is proposed in Chicago,
and only failed in Cincinnati by the
solemn protest of the pulpit. 2ow, the
liquor traffic is either right or wrong. If
it is wrong, no State can ever rightfully
license a wrong. Let us then refuse to
do wrong, ai.d esjiecially refuse to make
crime respectable by plaiting it in the
hands of capitalists. Another lesson of
the hour is that we learn who are the
ENEMIES OK KELIGOX AXD MORALITY.
There are infidel influences at work.
In many of our great cities, the Bible is
expelled from the schools, and the Sab
bath trodden under foot. In Chicago
the anti-Bible and anti-Sabbath party
triumphed by au immense majority. Her
purest women were insulted by an en
raged rabble, while returning from an
appeal to the council, and while the law
officers were in sympathy with the mob.
Tliis is a specimen of the fate of every
town where the enemies of religion get
the control, and matters may go on,
until we have two great parties in tliis
country, the one representing religion
and morality, and the other representing
irreligjpn and vice. You need not be
amazed at the immense disgust express
ed iu many quarters at this moral up
rising of the people. It comes of botl
those of native and foreign birth. But
let those who are dissatisfied with the
evident wishes of a large majority, re
member that there is no law which re
quires them to stay here, and remember
ing that Sabbat h-keoping and God-fearing
mull founded this nation, we protest
against it becoming a vast lieer-garden,
Wiiil founded our land lxk at the
Piigriiu.s, kneeling iu pray er on Plymouth
Rock, at JJew England colonized by the
Puritans, at New York by the Protestant
Dutch, at Pennsylvania by the Quakers,
at Georgia by the Iiugenots. Ix.k at
Washington, in the darkest hour of the
Revolution, kneeling in prayer iu Valley
Forge. Blot out the pulpit, the Bible,
and the Sabbath School, and you will
reduce us to Pnganisiu.
Do you say these remarks are a con
trast with our theme last Sabbath, "The
power of love:" Not at all. Grand are
the triumphs of that love which gave us
Jesus, and which is ridding the land of
a mighty scourge, but let love be scaled
by law. The lover's fiiith is sealed by
civil contract. Love and law alternate
in the family, and love and law are both
written in the Godhead. Where wo
man has conquered by love, let men
seal that victory by law, enforced law.
and not idle statutes as a mockery on
the books.
The speaker then appealed to the
men never to enter a saloon; he re
minded the church of a long catalogue
of ot her sins than liquor sins; he urged
that if we did not provide healthy places
of recreation for our young men, the
Devil would provide unhealthy ones; he
urged a reading roon, and a Y'oung
Men's Christian Association, in which
the horns and hoofs of sectarianism,
should not constantly protrude; he
urged patronage for reformed draiu-sell
ers, and urgivl reformed drinkers to a life
in Christ, as the only safe course; he re
garded this temperance movement as a
John the Baptist to prepare the way for
Christ.
lie asked the praying men how much
they really were praying for the woman's
work; he appealed to all men present
that each one present was writing his
biography hi these eventful hours, and
urged them not to yield to the money
loving, time-serving, patronage-gobbling
tendencies of the day. And closed as
follows:
We live in the midst of great events.
"Wc arc living, we are dwelling,
In u grand anil awful time;
In an aire on hl'cs telling.
To be living is sublime."
It bti'omcs us to "quit ourselves like
men" in the grand struggle between
light and darkness, between vice and
virtue.
I ask you hi the name of your own
reputation, in the name of suffering
humanity, in the name of the groans
and tears of widowed wives and home
less orphans, in the name of millions of
those slain by rum, whose "blood crieth
from the ground," in the name of the
rising and unborn generation, in the
name of her whose prayer, plea, and
song, has filled our streets, in the name
of God. before whose bar you are hast
ening: Be true in this struggle. "Show
thyself a mnn."
"Be iust mid fear not.
Let all the ends tliou aim's! at
Be thv counlrv's, thv God's and truth's;

of the time their certificates cover.
Some again, who hold ccr; iiicutes which
expire two or three months before their

of the year trit.'iont certificates. There
are at present,yor ladies teaching in
the Finding schools without certificates,
besides some others in the county who
are doing likewise. If they receive any
pay, they get it contrary to law, as no
clerk h;is any authority to issue an or
der for the payment of money, without
a certificate is filed with him. We sim
ply make these statements at the request
of several teachers.
Twenty subscribers were obtained for
the Ohio Educational Jounud. We
hope every teacher will come prepared
to subscribe for it at our next examina

LETTER FROM ADRIAN.
ADRIAN, O, March 27, 1874.
Ens. Jeff.- A word from Adrian, and
the ea.-tern pjirt of yourcounty, may not
be uninteresting to your readers.
A shcrt time since, ve were favored
with a visit bv Mrs. Dr. Jones, of vour
town, who presented the claims of the
Vt'niiiuu'x Foreign Juisxiuuurii fraiity.
and organized a very encouraging auxi!
iary in our place. The address of sister
Jones was highly appreciated by ou
pec-pie. She depicted the degradation of
heathen women, and urged the duty of
Christian Woman to their lost sisters of
the Orient in u manner that moved all
hearts.
Adrian has been greatly favored witl
religious meetings this Winter. The
Evangelical Association and the M. E.
Church have each held a series of meet
ings in the place with f:;ir success.
have t vro congregations in Big Lick town
ship, of your county. At Biglick Church
we have an excellent society of earnest
workers. During a series of meetings
held in this place, thirty have been add
ed to their number. The other society
is located two miles West of Independ
ence. Here our brethren are building
a new and beautiful frame church whicl
will stand as a monument both of their
good taste and generosity. Through t he
courtesy of our Presbyterian friends.
we occupy their church till ours can be
opened. Two much can not be said in
commendation of Elder W. K. Leonard
of the Presbyterian Church, who so kind
ly tendered us the use of the church. No
man can become acquainted with the
good people of Big Lick, without being
impressed tliat the Lord has a great
many good people in this world.
The temperance army is marching on
God bless the dear women, und hasten
the day of whiskey's doom. There is
but one whiskey shop in Adrian, which
is run by a widow lady, whose husband
fell a victim to the traffic. Our women,
however, have organized, and on yes
terday sent a Committee to the old lady
to ask her to cease the business and sign
the dealer's pledge. If she refuses, she
will be entitled to the prayers and sym
pathies of our women till she does. The
fact is, we are to lie pitied. We liavu't
whiskey enough here to get up an en
thusiasm, and yet too much to be tol
erated. Toledo, with her CS-1 saloons, will have
a grand fight, but trusting in God, vic
tory will crown the temperance hosts,

CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.
Mak. 2". The petitions against li
cense, and in favor of the prohibition of
the liquor traffic, were many and numer
ously signed. The educational article
was read for the third time, and the only
point in which it liiiTers from the preset
article is iu an additional section making
women eligible to school ol'ices, and this
ne.w section, after a failure to strike it
out, caused the defeat of the article. A
bill of 6'1.5iKI for an index to the first
volume of the delates of the convention,
caused much discussion, but was finally
ordered paid, and a price of ijTjU each
was li.ed for the indexes which will be
prepared for the two coming volumes.
The report of the Committee on Cor
porations other than Municipal was
taken nj for general debate.
