of September 26th. In substance, he,
says that public excitement in regard
to the matter, requires an explanation
from him. Previous to the difficulty,
his private and social relations with
Mr. Stephens, had been of the most
triendlv character. On - August 23rd,
he mot Mr. Stephens at a harhacbe at
i tlie Glades, in Putnam county. Had

The Street of Hell.
In view of the present state of
our. society—the dissipated habits
of some of our young men of ex-
celleiifc^educational advantages—
the ctwnmon custom of making
ll^iir^the great crimes of druiik-
ennessfv^witness recently, one of
our "Ahj|D.’s on the stand in court)
—-the ready concurrence of our
ministers, in tlie worldly belief,
that in fhis free land, all men have
a right.‘^o sell poison under li
cense, #gavdless of the damage
done to society—their lack of
courage’- when denouncing from
the pri$Mtthis. king of demons and
mi’ai { q V !iCiid of all the evils of
earth—disease, poverty, woe, ma
nia, murder, rapine and death. I
say, in view of all these facts, and
many others, which tends to prove
that our social ship is entirely
loosed from her moorings and is
drifting with hurricane speed to
wards the shoals and quicksands
of utter ruin, I feel irresistibly
inclined to present you for publi
cation in your columns, the fol
lowing eloquent extinct from the
written sermons of Rev. T. R.
Gross, published first in The
World’s Crisis, and then by tlie
Advent Christian Times.
I hope your readers will reflect
upon the facts given, and take
heed to their ways. One hour of
calm, serious, logical inquiry, is
wdith a thousand devoted to wild
sport and reckless folly :
TIIE STREET OF HELL.
“Iii 1770, there was in the
United States, 140,000 licensed
liquor saloons. If formed into a
street, with saloons on each side,
allowing twenty feet to each
saloon, they would make a street
two hundred and sixty-five miles
long. Let us imagine them
brought together in such a street,
and let us suppose the moderate
(lriukcrs, and their families arc
inarching into it at the upper end.
Go with me if you have the nerve
and patience, and stand at the
lower end, and let ns see what
that street turns out iri one year.
What army is this that comes
marching down the street in solid
column, five abreast, extending
five hundred and seventy miles?
It is the army of 5,000,600 of tuen
•1 wmoan, go ibiil.y unit con
stantly to the saloons for intoxi
cating drinks. Marching twenty
miles a day, an 1 it will take them
more than twenty-eight days to
go by.
Now they are gone, and close
in their rear,'comes another army,
marching five abreast and sixty
miles in length. In it, there arc
530,000 confirmed drunkards.—-
They are men and women who
have lost control of their appetites,

following story of a pair of spotted
mules belonging to a certain

John Fagan were seated in a bug

along South C Street, near the
