The Mayor of Albany now tries offenders

few of them have had Urn grace to express it
in this way : “She frankly declared that the

a trial of the acquisition. In fifty-seven se

The Augusta Evening News says : “There
is a good deal of discussion, pro. and con., re
garding Judge Gibson’s late decision in chain
lers regarding the city dog question. There
is also a difference of opinion as to the cor

be compelled to pay the value of stock killed

Can Drunkards Reform?
In a recent article with the above heading,
in the New York Christian Advocate, the
Rev. Charles J. Warren, a veteran temper
ance advocate, writes:
“Religious conversion, all arc agreed, is
the first necessity for all men, and especial
ly for inebriates, as the surest hope of a real
and permanent reformation of life. And
intemperate men, especiall}” those who be
come demented rather than demonized, it is
well known, are always easily moved by
religious influences, even when so drunk that
they would wisely be deemed incompetent
to execute a will for the disposal of earthly
property, and incapable of giving testimony
in a court of law.
“Yet this idea of a spiritual renovation of
the heart, while the head is too intoxicated to
apprehend a moral obligation, is almost be
yond rational belief. It is difficult to con
ceive that any man, in such a state of volun
tarily-induced imbecility, too drunk to hold
intelligent converse with men, can be compe
tent to transact business with God, to receive
and answer those calls from the Holy Spirit
that decide the eternal destinies of the soul.
“No one can doubt the power of Omnipo
tence to control and change the thoughts, the
affections, and the will of any man, however
beclouded and ohdurated by intemperance or
other vices and evil passions. Yet men are
not converted by that same miraculous pow
er which recalls the dead to life and restores
to activity the palsied arm. We judge in
stinctively that all men. intemperate or sober,
must work out their ov;n salvation with fear,
while God works in them to will and to do." —
Nat. Temp. Ado.
The Infatuation of Alcohol.
None are more wretchedly deluded than
the victims of alcohol. Concerning the alco
holic infatuation, the superintendent of the
Chicago “Washingtonian Home,” I). Wilkins
in a paper read before the American Associ
ation for the Cure of Inebriates. sa}'s :
“ Under the infatuation of alcohol, man will
expose himself to extreme heat and intense
cold, to the greatest fatigue and severest en
durance. to deprivation of sleep and rest, to
licentiousness and the deepest moral and
physical degradation—in short, he will ex
pose himself to everything calculated to
weaken his physical constitution and destroy
his health. Its influence upon the animal
passions, appetites, and moral feelings is
very striking. While it weakens and sus
pends the moral feelings, it strengthens the
animal appetites, desires, and passions—
while it undermines chastity, it strengthens
licentiousness; while it enfeebles man's in
tegrity and honor, it makes him deceptive
and dishonorable.”
In view of results so deplorable from the
use of the deceptive agent alcohol, the only
wise and safe rule in relation to it is to “touch
not, taste not, handle not.”— lbid.
Hate the Evil but Save the Evil-Doer.
It is not necessary to hate the rum-seller
in order to hate his business. We would
destroy his business and restore him to re
spectable society. We would save his soul
by taking hi in out of a business which is in
league with hell, and which turns men into
demons. Even as the Lord hates sin but
saves the sinner, so would the true friends of
temperance save the rum-seller but annihi
late, if possible, all vestige of his nefarious
traffic. The time has passed when the rum
seller is “as good as any other man.” The
great reform movements now sweeping over
the land should stop at once if the rum-seller
is engaged in & “legitimate, respectable bu.
siness.” But if the reform movement is right
and just, then the liquor-seller is a sinner
and a destroyer.
This “gigantic crime of crimes” is to cease
before the imllcurium is ushered iu. It is
not “malice” to the rum-seller to endeavor to
“persuade” him, even to the fullest extent
of the law, to abandon a business which lias (
not one redeeming quality, but which brings j
so much misery and death. “Woe to him
that putteth the bottle to his neighbor’s lips !”
— Nat. Temp. Ado.
Politics vs. Appetite.
Recently a Republican, at Atlanta, who is
also a preacher, tackled old Uncle Remus on
the subject of politics.
“ I understand old man,” said he, “ that
you are a Democrat.”
“Idunno, ’bout dat boss.”
“ Well, it comes pretty straight.”
‘ I know dey got two sides, one what dev
calls Demmycrat an* de udder what dey call
Radikel. but I don’t bodder wid ’em we’n de
wedder gets dis stiff.”
“But I hear yon vote the Democratic ticket
every time.”
“ I wote wid my young marster what I
missed w'en he want no bigger dan a buck
rabbit.”
“ Now, don’t you know that this is going
back on your color.”
•‘But hit ain’t gwinehaok on my belly, an’
cf I don’t tend ter dat, de fust cold rain dat
come ’long mout wash der color right outen
me. I aint takin no chances in this business,
boss. I’m gettin’ ole an’ de oler I gits de
hungrier I gits.—l duz fora fac.”
“Look at me. I vote the Republican
ticket and I’m not losing iny flesh.”
“ You sorter preaches round like, don’t
you ?”
“Sometimes. ‘Yes. Whv?”
“Gaze, dal’s war de fun comes in. I don’t
git no chance for to feed outen no beaver bat,
and I don’t eat offen no plates what dey
takes up in church kleckslmn in. I’m a
mighty lonesome nigger, an’ I has ter scuffle
’long de bes’ I kin widout any congregashun
at my back.”
The preacher looked at his watch, and said
lie would talk some more another time, while
Uncle Remus, with a serene smile upon his
venerable face, went down the street singing :
“ O ! whar shall we go w'en de great day comes,
Wid de blow *n uv trumpets an' de hanging uv
drums ?
How menny po' sinners will be cotehcd out late,
Air find no latch at de garden gate ?”
His faith.
Riding up on a Woodward avenue ear
through the drizzle yesterday, a fault-finding
citizen found one of the Congregational min
isters aboard, and he braced around and be
gan :
Sir, are you not a minister of the Gospel ?
I am, was the reply.
And you believe in prayer ?
I do, sir.
I)o you believe that if all you ministers
would pray for this confounded weather to
clear up it would do an}' good ?
\>s, sir.
Well, then, why don't you begin praying!
Because, sir, this is rheumatic weather, and
because, sir, we want to sec the rheumatism
get hold of such unbelievers as you are and
tie thorn up in double bow knots. That is
why sir.
’Tis eh ? growled the man. Well, I will be
dnrned if I don't walk ar mild all day with an
umbrella just to spite your infernal old weath
er—you bet I will.
And ho leaned back and chuckled like a
man who had struck a rich thing.
A Lone Widow’s Device.
An amusing story comes from the Ardon
nes. where, according to the tale, an agricul
turalist recently died leaving a wife, a horse,
and a dog. A few moments before his death
lie called his wife to him. and bade her sell
the horse and give the proceeds of the sale to
his relatives, to sell the dog and keep the
money thus gained for herself.
Soon after his death, the wife went to the
market with the horse and dog, and exhibited
them, with the announcement that the price
of the dog was live hundred trances, and that
of the horse five francos. The passers-by stop
ped and stared, and judged the woman mad,
more especially as she informed all would-bc
purchasers that to buy the horse they must
first buy the dog. At last a curious passer
by concluded the bargain ; after which the
skillful woman handed over five fi ances to the
family of her deceased husband, and retained
five hundred franees for herself, thus contriv
ing at the same time to carry out the letter,
if not the spirit of the wishes of her husband,
and to secure the largest sum of money for
herself.
l3P*"Why, my dear Mrs. Smith, how can
you afford to dress so extravagantly in these
hard times?” “Hard times! Why, your
husband must have remained in business,
didn’t he?” “Certainly ; he has kept going
on as usual, and worked hard, as he saj's, to
keep his head above the tide ; but I am sorrv
to say he has not made much money lately.’’
“I thought so. There is where he made a
great mistake. Now ray husband, as soon
as he saw the financial breakers ahead, went
into bankruptcy, and retired from business
to wait for better times.” “Ah!” said Mrs.
Jones.
A Splendid Opportunity.
Two Excellent Papers for s3.7s—The In
dex and Baptist and the Forest
News at Low Club Rates.
The Index and Baptist , Atlanta, Georgia,
is one of the old established and able papers
of the Baptist denomination. It has not a
superior, if an equal, in the essential features
of appropriateness of size, excellence of
make-up, and the ability and acceptability of
its editorial management. The publishers
make an important announcement inanotlier
column, and propose to send the Index to
January, 1879, for $2.60. They can only
afford to do this by a large increase of their
subscription list. As the organ of the Bap
tist denomination, it should be the pride of
Baptists everywhere to give the Index united,
active support, and we will be pardoned for
saying we trust every Baptist reader of the
Forest News will extend the fullest encour
agement to the Index. To aid this, we will
send the Index to January 1, 1879, and the
Forest News one year, for $3.75, positively
in advance,
