THE MYSTERIOUS MESSEN
GER,
A Pamphlet by* a member of the
Georgia Conference. Publish
ed for tite Author, itr J. B. Me
Perrin, Agent.
This is a humorsome pamphlet of
‘A'l pages, taking off some of the old
topers in a most ludicrous style. We
give the following extract as the
most serious portion of it, relative to
taking the pledge:
“Will you sigujhe total abstinence
pledge?”
“A’o/’said old Moee Azant, the most
inveterate toper on the hill. No ;it
would be singin’ away our liberty.
Our forefather fout, bled, and died
for liberty, and we won’t sign it
away.”
“ No says the poor drunkard; it
would be signing away our liberty!
Our liberty ! And what liberty has
the poor, besotted, forsaken, down
trodden, despicable creature ‘( Why,
lie has liberty to stagger from one
side of the road to the other ; helms
liberty to full down and wallow in
the mire like a brute; he has liberty
to array himself iu dirty rags, and
to starve his wife and children ; lie
has liberty to get a broken bead, a
bruised eye, battered limbs, a bloody
face, and a very bad name; he Ims
liberty to rush down the hill of life,
heedless, mad, infatuated, to land in
perdition itself; he has liberty to be
kicked out of doors by tbe man who
sold him the stuff that made him so
gloriously independent, and pocket
ed his last dime for the same. Real
ly, it is ludicrous to think of. A
drunkard have liberty! He who is
the slave of appetite have freedom !
Ue who has struggled often to break
the chains of a destructive lmbit—
who has promised himself, promised
his wife, promised his God, promised
his friends that he would never touch
another drop, anti then rushed with
impetuosity of relentless craving in
to tho vortex of drunkenness —such
a one enjoy independence! It is
Yvorse than ludicrous, it is a folly of
the most stupendous magnitude. Is
this the liberty which your revolu
tionary fathers fought, bled, and died
to secure ? lleaven deliver us from
the galling yoke of such freedom !
Give us king, emperor, autocrat, sul
tan, pope—anything short of the
despotism of hell itself, rather than
the sway of alcohol. Oye enslaved
minions of whisky, turn, and to-day
assert your nobler freedom. l)e
( hire your independence of that vile
monster who flatters, but to betray
and blast you for ever.
“You will not sign away your lib
erty ! And liavo you not done it ?
Have you not signed away your lib
erty to rob, steal, and murder ? to
commit jierjury, and treason, and
arsou ? Look at the constitution
and tho laws! do you not stand
pledged to support them ? Do you
not stand pledged to pay your tuxes,
and to perforin your military, road,
and patrol duties 1 Did you never
pledge yourself in a bond as princi
pal or in a promissory note
or other civil obligation ? Did you
never pledge yourself at Hymen’s
altar, or make a vow, form, in the
secret chambers of y'our souls, a high
and noble resolve to be just and good
and true to God and man ? Well,
what were all these but signing away’
your liberty to do evil, and pledging
y ourselves to do what is right?
TIIE TIMELY WARNING.
The following from oar work,
“The Tales of Masonic Life,” was
committed to paperas an encourage
ment to all Masons to perform that
positive and bounden duty of giving
due and timely notice to a brother
whenever he needs it:
“It was about ayear since. I was
traveling on a steru-wlieeler from
Cairo to Memphis, and a slow and
painful conveyance it proved to me.
The bill of fare was frightfully scan
ty, the bedding bug-haunted, the
company profligate. Gambling was
going on from sunrise to midnight,
and every hour or two a fight settled
the game, aftor which anew ‘deck
of keerds, as the gamblers un
couth ly styled them, was ‘fotch on,’
and another round began, to termi
nate as before.
“Among the passongers I had ob
served a young man of that gentle,
amiable cast of countenance, which
young men even at this day some
times wear, who have been raised
iu pious families, under the hand of
loving mothers and praying fathers.
How such a man got to the gamb
ling-table, I have never ascertained;
hut rising one night awhile before
twelve, after vainly attempting to
s natch sleep among the roaches and
more offensive vermin, 1 discovered
him there, excited with liquor, furi
ously’ excited with the gambler’s
madness—worse than delirium tre
mens itself— and in a rapid process
of being plucked by the experienced
scoundrels around him. The sight
shocked me. I was quite unprepared
for it. Through my conversation
with him the previous day, I was
confident he knew’ little or nothing
of cards, a thing easily enough seen,
by-thc-way, in his awkward style of
handling them, and that he would
not rise from that dangerous place
while he had a dime left in his
pocket. Alter standing by for a
ti.onuidiiral.le t ime.diirinji whieh <lolhlr
after dollar disappeared from bispile
to enlarge that of bis opponent’s, I
took a chair close by him, and leaned
my elbow s upon the table in real dis
tress. A square piece of tobacco lay’
there—a ‘plug/ I think, such things
are called —Yvith a knife by it. Me
chanically I took them up, and be
gan thoughtlessly to chip the edges
of the tobacco. While doing so, the
young man reached his hands in my’
direction for the pack of cards, it be
ing his deal, and exposed his wrist
bands to my’ view'. By T the flash of
the candles I observed that they’
w'ere fastened with gold studs, hav
ing Masonic emblems—the square
and compass—on them, a sign I
never fail to see, ‘vlien within ray
perview.
“A thought occurred to me. This
is a Mason. I will warn him of his
danger ! .So Yvith the knife I cut
deeply in the tobacco the same emi
bleins, the square and compass, and
lay ing it down with the knife before
him, as I supposed they’ were his
property, 1 arose and left the table.
I could see that his eye caught the
emblem instantly, and that he under
stood me.
“It was a curious thing to observe
hirp then. lie went on dealing the
cards, but so listlessly’ and carelessly
as to forfeit the deal. Ho laid his
forehead in his hands thoughfully,
and his hands upon the table. Once or
tw'ice ho counted his little pile of
money’, now’ reduced to a very trifle.
He got up for a drink of water, and
walked in an uncertain manner to
and fro, sat down again, played his
game out, and by the evident co-ope
ration of his adversaries Avon it. Got
up again, drank, and took a longer
walk. Play’ed again and won. And
then, as with a pow’er given him at
that instant from on high, he throYV
down his cards with startling vehe
mence, fell on knees,raised his hands
aloft to heaven, and with a mighty
voice repeated an oath that he would
‘never, never, NEVER gamble again,
so help me God!’
“I sat at his side all that night,
bathing his head in cold water ; and
that saved him, I think, from a teri
rible attack of brain fever—saved
him for a lovely’ girl to whom he
was even then betrothed—saved him
to be the father of as charming a child
as over sprung like an olive shoot
ly human feet—saved him to be one
of tho best officers in one of the best
Grand Lodges in the land —saved
him to become one of my best cor
respondents and truest friends—a
Mason, with whom I hope at the
resurrection-day’ to riso.
“Nor is this the w’hole story ; for
ouo of tho gamblers, to whom the
knife and tobacco really belonged,
seeing the square and compass cut
on his plug, sat with mo all that
night at my’ brotherly work—avow
ed himself, too, a Mason —declared,
in language more ardent than w'as
necessary’ (for under other circum
stances, I should have called it bias
phemy,) that ‘had he know the young
gentleman was a Mason, he was es
sentially’ and dis he would have
played a game Yvith him’ —and the
next morning, learning the exact
amount that had been won, collected
it from the others and restored it to
him. That gambler took a step in
the right direction, consequent upon
the rebuke*, compliments, and coun
sels, whieh, combined in equal doses,
I administered to him, and quit the
river forever, opened a drinking sal-
oon, opened a book store, became a
grain dealer, dry goods merchant,
and made money at all these things,
was elected sheriff of the county*,
and still holds that position j and to
conclude the story, I still have the
plug in my possession, with tho
original square and compass cut upon
it P
The Fleurer Girl.
Hu following incident actually took
p!ace in Baltimore a few years since.—
As an evidence of the truth of the event
it is said that the companions of Ike young
woman were not long in discovering that
one of their number all of a sudden left
their ranks.
“How do you sell these flowers?”
said a good-looking stranger, ofoneof the
Southern States, to a pretty little dam
sel in the market, who had hitherto been
compelled to sell pinks, posies, and sim
ilar notions, honestly to maintain herself
and family.
“Twenty five cents, sir,” said the maid
en’ holding up to the gaze of the stran
gir, a sweet-scented bunch.
‘ Cheap/’ said the gentleman.
“indeed they are/’ said the maiden.
“So much so, I cannot possibly oon
ceive how you can make a living at the
business.”
“Ah, sir,” she said, “the times are so
hard we are compelled to do the best we
can. By economy, sir, we do manage to
get along. Did those who live in glit
tering palaces but know how severe is
the lot of the poor and dejected, we
might get a trifle more for our labor.—
But alas ! sorry I am to be compelled to
say it, truly, justice U blind, and dim in
deed is the vision of opulence.”
Here the stranger, touched by the
powerful remarks of the pretty flower
girl, was seen to drop his head, and let
fall a tear of sorrow. Recovering, how
ever, he continued, as follows :
“Here, my pretty one, why not turn
your attention to something more prof
itable
“I know not what, sir,” said she.
“Why not turn your attention to spec
ulation, my girl ?”
“But 1 know not what kind, and if I
did, I am not possessed of the capital.”
“Oh, there are some kinds of specula
tion in which to meet success that capi
tal is not required,” he said.
“Name it, ir.”
“Marriage.”
“Sir,” said the little maiden, “my chan
ces in that kind of speculation are poor
poor, indeed.”
“Perhaps not so poor as you imagine.”
“I have now on my hands a dear lath
er and mother to support by my little
earnings, and to marry a youth as poor
as myself would only be heaping misfor
tune on our already overburdened shoul
ders.”
“But, perhaps in the search you might
fall in with someone who has more of
this world’s treasures than yourself.”
“But to get him,” modestly articula
ted the girl.
“Twere an easy task,-if he loves you.”
“But where shall I find him ? Which
way shall I look f ’
“Here, my pretty one,” said the gen
tleman, at the same time throwing his
eyes upon the young girl in such a man
ner as to leave no doubt on her mind that
she was adored by the stranger.
* * * * The couple became more in
timate with each other. The strangor
bought the flowers of the maiden, and, as
a compensation, he gave her a fortune of
one hundred thousand dollars, with a
written contract that himself should be
thrown into the bargain.
They are now man and wife, the aged
parents are comforted in their declining
years, the maiden is no longer obliged to
vend her nosegays, and the stranger,
doubtless, blesses the hour he visited
the City of Monuments, and went to buy
the blue-eyed maiden’s charming flowers.
For Yeanf Men Cos Think off.
The latest of his preaching upon “Pop
ular Proverbs,” Dr. Holland chose a
thoughtful and suggestive discourse on
sensual pleasure, with the following earn
est remarks to young men, which de
serve to be thought of:
“Oh ! if the world could rise out of
this swamp of sensuality ; rank with
weeds and drunk with deadly vapors,
full of vipers, thick with pitfalls, and
lurid with deceptive lights, and stand
upon the height of virtue where God’s sun
shines, and the winds of heaven breath
blandly and healthfully, how would hu
man life become blessed and beautiful.
The great burden of the world rolled off,
how would it spring forward with a
grand career of prosperity and progress !
This change for this country rests almost
entirely on the young men of the coun
try. ft lies with them more than any
other class, and more than all other class
es, to say whether this country shall de
scend lower in its path of brutality, or
rise higher than the standard of its loft
iest dream. The devotees of sense, them
selves, have greatly lost their power for
good, and comparatively few will change
their course of life. Woman will be
pure if man will be true. Young men !
this great result abides with you ! If you
could but see how beautiful a flower
grows upon the thorny stock of self
denial, you would give the plant the hon
or it deserves. It seems hard and home
ly, despise it not; for in it sleeps the
beauty of heaven and the breath of an
gels. If you do not witness the glory of
its blossoming during the day of life, its
petals will open when the night of death
comes, and gladden your closing eyes
with their marvelous loveliness and fill
your soul with their grateful perfume.”
|O~At what age should a girl marry ?
When she has had enough of flirting,
knows how-to get a decent dinner, and

trials, as well as pleasures of her new re

fortitude a good woman always manages

TO CRACK.
Annie Trevor, in the Philadelphia
Press, gives her readers, of “the sterner
*,” something to ponder over, in the
following spicy letter.
Men are continually talking about wo
men's dress, ridiculing women’s fashions,
and having a good time of it to them
selves. You don’t hear women making
such a noise about men’s styles j they
manage to mind their own business gen
erally, on such matters as those anyhow.
1 break through the forms, and give you
an idea or two that are in my head juat
now.
Men talk about hoops, unblushingly
and ridiculously, when they first became
“the rage.” Ministers in the pulpit, or.
ators on the rostrum, editors tarough
the papers, fops in the parlor and boys in
the street, seemed to think it a necessary
duty to cry down hoops; they do it
yet, and I’ll wager, if crinoline were in
tirely discarded, not a man lives who
wouldn’t laugh at the long shrouded fig*
ures women would appear in the streets.
To be sure, I have met some few sensi.
ble men who are willing to acknowledge
that hoops are a wonderful improve*
ment, that they wouldn't like to see la
dies without them, but the number is
very small compared with the other side.
Even while the men do make such a fuss,
1 want to know if any one of the sex
wears a pair of pantaloons without some
kind of stiffening around the hem of said
articles. At any rate, I wee some men
who would look a deal better if they
wore hoops in their pantaloons.
When ladies wore coats, tight to the
form and buttoned to the throat ala mil
itaire, men indignantly declared that
their styles were being appropriated by
the oßer sex, and, at that very same
time, every second man you met waa
wrapped in a monstrous shawl. I won*
der if that was’nt appropriating with a
vengeance.
Then they talk about padding, and
there isn’t a vest worn that the bosom
isn’t stuffed with cotton until it weighs
more than any dress-body that ever was
made. Padding indeed ! I wonder if you
think we women are ignoramuaaes, be
cause we have the good sense to say
nothing. 1 wonder if you think we keep
our eyes shut as well as our mouths.—
Not * bit of it. Don’t I know that if
the old style of knee-breeches and silk
stockings should be revived, the demand
for “false calves” would be alarming ?
To be sure 1 do.
And don't 1 know that there are plen
ty of men who lace themselves in stays
just as tight as any women ever did, and
the very same reason that women do that
thing ? 1 don't know any thing abont it,
do 11 Oh, no of course I don’t.
I don’t know that men dye their hair
and whiskers when the natural color
does not exactly suit them, do 1 1
I never see men with tow-beads and
jetty moustaches, do II
1 don’t know that old, gray haired men
are daily making efforts to rejuevnate
themselves in appearance, by turning
their gray hairs into “glossy black,” wear,
ing false teeth, Ac., do I 1
Maybe I don’t.
Ladies wear tight shoes to make their
feet small, do they 1 Gentlemen never
do such things, I suppose. They are
sever seen limping along the street in
bran new patent leathers. Os course
not. They never resort to artificial
means to improve their beauty. They
never wear woolen mittens all night to
make their hands white. Os course not.
I don’t know anything about it, do IT
What a quantity of stuff it takes to
cut ladies’ sleeves now adays!” said a
masculine in my hearing. Ten minutes
afterwards I saw him with a coat on, the
sleeves of which looked like enormous
balloons, legs of mu-.lon, or some other
monstrosity. There is inconsistency for
you.
Now, I advise you, men, to keep si
lence on matters you krow nothing a
boufc. We will have our own way; we
mean to wear hoops until we choose to
take them off: we mean to wear coats
ala militaire just when we please—aye,
and pantaloons, too, if it suits us. (They
are worn by some married women now,
are they not ?) And you, men, had as
well hold your tongues and not be wast
ing your time and talenta, talking about
what you can’t prevent.
liurrah for our side !

When we left, Smithers was talking
about the Constitution to the keyhole of
a bedroom door.
The friende of a oelebrated wit ex
pressed some surprise that, with his aga
and his fondness for the bottle, he should
have thought it necessary to marry.-
“A wife was necessary,” he said; “my
