TEMPERANCE LE01 VrIaJd A SEll

The people of Butler hud the pleasure of
listening to' one of tho ablest temperance
lectures on Wednesday night Inst, that Was
ever delivered in tho town. Rev. Mr. Ta
tum, a “Quaker" or “Friend," delivored the
lecture. LU struck at the root of this mon
ster evil, and gave the U. P. Government
povftral broad sidns during the lectuxo, for
Rolling the right to make whiskey, and was
not complimentary to President Grant for
grouting pardons to the lich prliiakoy thieves.
We believe the old gentleman iB doing a
food work. On Thursday night Mrs. Ta
tum p'-eacbcd (o a luge and fiisbiouale an-
dienco at tho Methodist churah. Whilst we
do uot favor female preaching ourselves, it
seems to be the custom ot tho friends to per
mit it and wo believe they are a good, inof
fensive people, Her sermon was creditable.
