Extract from onu of Cohbntt’s late Sermons.
Drunkenness.—The Bible, from one end
to the other, enjoins temperance and sobriety.
Solon on, in. Prov. ch. xxiii. ver. 31,-says,
that the “drunkard and the glutton shall come
to poverty;” and in ver. 20 and 30 of the same
chapter, ‘he asks, “ Who hath woe 1 Who
hath sorrow 1 Who hath contentions 1 Who
hath babbling 1 Who hath wounds without
cause 1 Who hath redness of eyes I” The
answer is “ they that tarry long at the trine,
they thut go to seek mixed urine.”
Never was a truer picture than this. Hem
are the etfects aud here is the cause. The
druultard, he who delights in drink, passes
upon himself the sentence of poverty aud of
and jicuultioa without receiving nod wq/J 1 "

compassion, because fie lias sinned

as aguiust reason aud flic word of God.

who liave begun iifo with the brightest of

men, with good foAuaes, good talents, good

only by being drawn into the vortex of the

‘I was under an impression that I spoke to

‘It appears to mo. I do remember something
