POETRY.
THE BIGHT MUST WIH.
O! it is hard to work for God,
To rise and take his part,
Upon this battle-field of earth,
And not sometimes lose heart.
He hides himself so wondrously,
As though there were no God;
He is least seen when all the powers
Os ill are most abroad.
Or he deserts us at the hour
The fight is almost lost;
And seems to leave us to ourselves
Just when we need him most.
11l masters good; good seems to change
To ill with greatest ease;
And worst of all, the good with good.
Is at cross purposes.
It is not so, but so it looks;
And we lose courage then;
And doubts will come if God hath kept
His promises to men.
Ah I God is other than we think ;
His ways are far above,
Far above reason’s height, and reached
Only by childlike love.
The look, the fashion of God’s ways
Love’s lifelong study are;
She can lx? bold, and guess, and act,
When reason would not dare.
She has a prudence of her own ;
Her step is firm and free;
Yet there is cautious science, too,
In her simplicity. /
Workman of God! O lose not heart,
But learn what God is like:
And in the darkest battle-field
Thou shalt know where to strike.
< >, blest is he to whom is given
The instinct that can tell
That God is on the field when he
Is most invisible!
And blest is he who can divine
Where real right doth lie.
And dares to lake the side that seems
Wrong to man's blindfold eye.
O, learn to scorn the praise of men !
O, learn to love with God!
For Jesus won the world through shame,
And beckons thee his road.
God’s glory is a wondrous thing,
Most strange in all its ways,
And of all things on earth, least like
What men agree to praise.
Muse on his justice, downcast soul!
Muse and take better heart;
Back with thine angel to the field;
Good luck shall crown thy part.
God’s justice is a bed where we
Our anxious hearts may lay,
And, weary with ourselves, may sleep
Our discontent away.
From a Temperance Tract.
ASTOUNDING DISCLOSURES.
Many charges have been made against
dealers in intoxicating liquors as engaging
in vile and dangerous adulterations. The
legislature of Ohio in March, 1855, direct
ed Dr. Hiram Cox, a distinguished chemist
of Cincinnati, to make a thorough exami
nation of such liquors as are in the market.
The following latter from Dr. Cox to Jas.
Black, Esq., of Lancaster, Pa., gives the
result of Ins investigations, We advise
every man, who is in the use of intoxica
ting liquors, to read it carefully, and then
THINK BEFORE HE DRINKS. Can a man Walk
on hot coals and his feet not be burned ?
Can he take poison into his stomach, and
not be injured ?
Cincinnati, Ohio, Oct. 3d, 1859.
Jas. Black, Esq— Dear Sir: Yours of
the 29th of September, dated Lancaster,
Pa., is now before me. Although not per
sonally acquainted, I take great pleasure in
contributing my mite, in any and every
possible mode, where the object is the bet
tering of the Jiuman family. I have luul
similar requests from every point of the
compass - from the extreme North, South,
East and West—to all of which I have
cheerfully responded ; believing, although
the labor has been considerable, that it
would tell in after years in the longevity
and health of thousands who otherwise
till a premature grave, and would contrib
ute to the happiness and comfort of thou
sands of mothers and children, who are
and have las'll, unfortunately, connected
with the unfortunate slaves of intompc
rance, 1 rejoice to know that my expo
sures of the villainoua liquors with which
the markets, East, and West, are glutted,
have had a salutary moral influence in al
most every region of our happy Union.—
I have letters in my possession from min
isters of the Gospel, from New Orleans,
from Nashville, Tennessee, from Florida,
from New York, from Boston, from Rieh
inond, Ya., Alexandria, Norfolk, Washing
ton City, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Pa., from
Toronto, from Hamilton, Canada, and from
all of our Eastern States—congratulating
and encouraging me to continue my expo
sures—that they were causing mon to think
and stand aghast, in*»r*' than anything that
they could do or say on the subject of tem
perance. The same eth'ct has been pro
duced in this community. One gentleman
tapped mo on the shoulder some little time
past, and remarked at the same time. •■Doc
tor, I rejoice to see you take the stand that
you do on the stibje.t of poisonous liquors.
I can lay my hands on more than thirty of
our best citizens, gentlemen, who were tip
pling and tippling from a dozen to twenty
times a day, and who were bidding fair to
till a drunkard's grave, who have stopped
short, ano do not, and pledge themselves
that they never will drink any more, for
fear they may get hold of some of the mis
erable felultcrations (hat Dr, Cox >s holding
up to public view. Thank God J”
Chemists from various colleges have
written to me, stating that they had ana
lyzed numerous samples of the various al
coholic liquors in our markets, and find the
same pernicious developments which I bad,
at various times, indicated in articles which
I had written from lime to time; one of
which you will find at jwge 123 of die ‘
•‘Crusader,” which accompanies this letter.
Another ex tdence that the exposures which i
I have been making have had a salutary I
moral effect, is, that there has not l»een one j
fourth as much liquor sold yearly since as j
was previously * and another is, that a num- j
ber of large liquor establishments have
dosed; their proprietors ruining many of
their follow citizens who bad become their !
sureties. A number of distilleries have I
dosed in this vicinity. Thev have, a* it is i
familiarly called, "burst their boilers.”— <
One year previous to these break-ups, one j
of our largest distillers and liquor mer-'
chauts ia the city, said to me. "Dr. Cox,
vour articles on the adulterations of liquors •
have taken mor* trade front Cincinnati and ■
more money—at least tltW.OtMt per month !
—since they hare been put in cir.wlatioa. j
For God’s sake, stop them, sir! you will
break us up. I have been to New York,
and since to Boston, to Rochester, to Can
ada West, and have just returned; and
wherever I stopped there was nothing talk
ed of but the poisoned liquors of Cincin
nati and Dr. Cox’s exposures; for God’s
sake, I say again, stop it!”
Although the liquors are villainous in the
extreme, there are other large cities equally
as culpable. For example : A gentleman
of our city, a druggist, that he might have
pure liquor as a medical article, and that
kind for purity, &c., that he could recom
mend to his customers, went to New York
and purchased two half-pipes of splendid
“Seignette Brandy,” one pale, the other
dark. When passing one day, he called
me in to see his ‘■‘■beautiful, pure brandy,"
just from New York ! I stopped, looked
at it, smelled it, but before tasting it, hap
pened to have some blue, litmus paper in
my pocket. I introduced a small piece—it
came out red as scarlet! I then called for
a polished spatula, put it into a tumbler
containing, perhaps, half a gill, and waited
on it 15 minutes—at the expiration of which
the liquor was black as ink. The spatula
corroded, and when dried, a thick coating
of rust, which when wiped off left a cop
per coat almost as thick as if it had been
plated. I charged him on the spot, under
the penalty of the law, not to sell a drop
of it; took samples of it to my office, and
the following is the result of the analysis, ;
viz: i
Ist sample (dark), 55 percent, alcoholic
spirits by volume, and 41 per cent, by
weight; specific gravity 0.945. The tests
indicate Sulphuric Acid, Nitric Acsd, Nitric
Ether, P rustic Acid, Guinea Pepper, and
an abundance of Fusil Oil. Base—com
mon whiskey, not one drop of wine.
2nd sample (pale), 54 per cent, alcoholic
spirits by volume, 40 per cent, by weight;
specific gravity 0.955. This article has the
same adulterations as the first, but in great
er abundance, with the addition of Cathuc.
Remark—Most villainous connections. 1
Asa matter of course, these articles of ,
liquor could not be sold without a violation i
of the liquor law. Consequently I con
demned them. They were purchased on
four months’ time. The purchaser imme- (
diately notified the New York merchant of ,
the character and quality of the goods, and
directed him to send for them ; but, instead
of sending for them, he waited till the notes ■
became due, and brought suit in our Court
of Common Pleas. 1 analyzed the liquors
in tin? presence of court and jury, showed
them satisfactorily that they were the per
nicious, poisonous and villainous liquors
which I had represented them to be, and
the defendant gained his case triumphantly;
and Mr. New York merchant vanished be
fore 1 could get a State’s warrant, or he
would now be learning an honest mode of
making a living at one of our State Insti
tutions in Columbus. J was appointed to
the office of Chemical Inspector on the 19th
day of March 1855. Since then 1 have
made upwards of 600 inspections of stores,
and lots of liquors of every variety, and
positively assert that 90 per cent, of all
that I hav.e analyzed, were adulterated with
the most pernicious and poisonous ingredi
ents- The business of inspecting against
the will of men who are only governed by
motives of cupidity, I have found an up-hill
business. 1 have had more laving, inure
squabbling and quarreling with unprinci
pled things, bearing the shape and form of
men, made after God’s image, since I have
been engaged in the capacity of Inspector,
than I had during half a century before.—
You may think I have heard it thunder
some ; well, so I have. lam 66 years old,
but in al! my recollection I have not heard
thunder that hail the same effect on my
nervous system, nor anything else to affect
rnv sympathetic nerves so much as the sad
effects of imbibing the miserably concoc
tions sold in our markets under the char
acter of healthy beverage, with which Cock
tails, Brandg-Sm&shes, Mint Juleps, fuc.,
&lc., are concocted, and which sent young
men, all under 30 years old, and all sons of
some of our most respectable citizens, to a
premature grave, during the winter pre
vious to my appointment; some of whom
had not been drinking three months I Not
only young men, but many old men of our
city, who were not considered drunkards,
died, during the same winter, the horrid
death of the drunkard with the Delirium
Tremens These facts induced me to ac
cept the unthankful appointment. Since
the appointment 1 have, as physician to the
Probate Court, examined upwards of 400
insane cases, two-thirds of wh ch number
liecame insane from drinking the poison
ous liquors sold at the doggeries and tav
erns of our city and country. Many of
them were boys from 19 to 20 years of
age, some of whom were laboring under a
hereditary taint—and perhaps in many of
them the mental derangement would never
have been developed!, had they not drank
of these poisonous decoctions. One boy
17 years of age, the principal support of a
widowed mother and a little sister, was in- j
duct'd to drink some beer, and from beer to
the horrible rot-gut whiskey, kept in the
low doggeries of our city. They all got
drunk, and the boy referred to became
hopelessly, and incurably insane, and is yet
in the Insane Assylum at Dayton. In ex
amining the ease, for the purpose of getting
all the antecedents with it, 1 learned that
the grandfather of the bov died insane. I j
think the probability is altogether in favor
of the idea that the insanity never would ■
have been developed in this ease, had not •
these poisoned admixtures acted as a pow
erful excitant cause. 1 called at a grocery j
store one day, where liquor also is kept.— ■
A couple of Irishmen came in while I was '
there and called for some whiskey ; and ; (
the first drank, and the moment he drank i
the tears flowed freely, while he at the same ;
time caught his breath like one suffocated I
or strangling. When he could speak, he
said to his companion—“Och, Michael, but;
this is warming to the sthomaeh I” Mi
chael drank and went through like contor- 1
tions, with the remark, “M ouldn't it be
foine in a cowld frhosty morning ?”
After they had drank, 1 asked the land- •
lord to pour me out a little in a tumbler,
in which I dipped a slip of litmus paper,;
which was no sooner wet than it put on a j
scarlet hue. 1 went to my office. got my
instruments and examined it. 1 found it
had 17 per cent, alcoholic spirits by weight, •
when it should have had 40 per cent, to lie .
proof, ami the difference in per eentage ;
made up by Sulphuric Acid, Red Pepper, I
Peltiforp, Costir Potassa and Brucine, one ,;
of the salts of Nucis Vomica., commonly , 1
called Nux Vomica. Due pint of sudi
liquor would kill the strong ?st man. I had j
the manufacturer indicted, but by such vil-1
Hany he has become wealthy, and I never .
ha\ e, owing to some defect in the law, been .
able to bring that ease to a final issue.
Yours, respectfully,

FAITH EQU Al. TO THE EMERGENCY. ; ■
When that man of ti.xl, the late Rev.
Henry V. D. Johns, of Baltimore, was on | ■
his <1 bed, by sorrowing <
friends and his heart -stricken family, the
future to them and his congregati.m was
the subject of his deepest concern. Con
sistent in his walk, with a heart full of love
to all who wiwe the laadge of <?hriw, and 1
every ready with voice and pen to do ser
vice in his Master’s cause, whether in his
own parish or out of it, he became endear
ed almost as much to those of every other
denomination in the city as his own chosen
people ; and because he knew neither Paul
nor Apollos, nor Cephas, but Christ only.
Because the Presbyterian or Methodist was
his brother in the Lord, equally with the
Episcopalian, his name was “cast out,” and
his way “evil spoken of,” by others of the
same creed professedly, but who, lacking
his broad catholic spirit, in their arrogant ex
clusiveness, would consort only with those
who, separating themselves, confined their
labors and love in a circumference as nar
row as their wisdom and charity Hence
the peculiar position of Emanuel Church,
and hence the solicitude of this eminent
pastor as to his successor.
But how truly does God declare He will
hear and answer prayer. How truly does
Jesus fulfil his promise—“Lo, I am with
you always, even to the end.” The dying
saint’s concern soon fled, his anxious solici
tude was soon dissipated, and the sweet
peace that the blessed Comforter brought
to his soul was expressed in these words:
“My faith is equal to any emergency," And
the comfort of that same faith was equally
expressed in a personal sense, as well as
the glorious theme of the Gospel, which it
was the burden of his ministry to declare,
when his brother, hastily summoned from
a distant State, entered the chamber of
suffering and dissolution : “My dear broth
er. A sinner saved by grace.”— Ei change.
