liat week we announced , that a na
tional temperance camp-meeting would
be held under the auspices of the Na
tional Christian Temperance Camp
meeting Association, of which Dr. H.
A. Reynolds is President, at Lake Bluff.
Hut I have heard old soldiers
say that the work they most dreaded
was to be placed ou picket duty when
in the enemy's country. To stand alone
away out ia the woods, far from camp,
to be shot down like a dog, and realize
that no record of this would be made
save, " one of the pickets was killed last
night,'' this required nerve. In the
battle of life but very few of us carry
the flag amid the cheers of tho multi
tude : we live alone, our life unnoticed,
our death unrecorded.
Again we learn from this subject
that but little stress is to be laid ou
death-bed utterances. " And Kiisha
died and they buried him." What his

The work ou the new capitol is now
progressing rapidly. The rooms iu each
of the wings, the Governors room, and
the library are plastered, the ceiling
and cornices in the Supreme Court room
are fiuished and the Senate and Repre
sentative chambers are well uuder way.
The west and north porticos are nearly
complete, and ground was broken on
Wednesday last for the east portico.
Tho latter is equivalent to breaking
ground for a $40,000 house. The
dome will bo fiuished by September 16th,
aud the contractors fully expect to have
the entire building ready for occupincv
by July 4th, 1S7S Lausiug Republi

Tho workshipers iu the Fourth Con
gregational Church, t)f Hartford, have
been horrified and justly. For nearly
thirty years they have gathered togeth
er Sunday after Sunday iu the sacred
edifice which they own, rejoicing to
believe that all their surroundings weie
of the most approved religious charac
ter. A few days since, however, their
rejoicing was turned to sadness, it
became necessary te paint the weather
boaten church, and during the process
it was deemed prudent to repair and
rcgild tho vane aud a large hollow ball
directly beneath on the spire. While
the ball was being repaired it became
apparent that it contained something,
and examination disclosed a quart bot
tle of rum and a pack of playing cards,
which, it subsequently trauspired,' were
placed thero while the spire was build
ing by some of the ungodly, citizens of
Harttord. No wonder the people are
horrified when they think ot the rever
ential fechog they have had for tho
spire.
