RELIGION AND TEXPE’RANC‘E.
‘Aa the work of revival goes on in this
city. ltsefict becomes apparent upon the
morale of society. and its beneficial in-
finencee are felt and admitted by all classes.
but the strongest inrosd is undoubtedly
made against intemperance. and as a con~
aequmce ealoen and liquor business is suffer-
ing. while those who have been the cause of
its former flourishing are rejoicing in their
relief from its thralldom. People are not
drinding intoxicating beverages as they were
two months ago. and by the aid of a resolu-
tion founded upon a Christian principle.
men that had given over to an appetite for
strong drink. and were fast approaching a
drunkard‘a grave are now in the full enjoy-
ment of all their faculties. and again oc-
cupying the position their talents and social
standing entitled them to.
Probably no more electnal temperence
movement was ever inaugurated here than
the religious revival now in progress. it
reaches the very root of the principle. and

N 031324 TING REPRESENT -1 I '1 l'E-S.
The manner of conducting the election of
representatives in this State is certainly
open to criticism. It is the custom to post—
pone the nominating conventions to the day
preceding the election or at the earliest on
the Friday evening preceeding the Holiday
of election. Generally one party nominates
Friday e'vening and the other Saturday eve-
ning. As aconaequcnce no opportunity is
worded of considering or discussing the
qualifications of the candidates. and a party
support is expected regardless of the charac-
ters of the men.
it is bythis action that our legislature is
mine to be considered as a small potato
efiair in our own state as well as through
the country. The legislature. however.
is the most important and responsible branch
of our State government. and one reason
why it is not composed of more responsible
and competent men is that its candidacy is
not considered of snflcieot importance for
the deliberate consideration of the voters.
but the party leaders pick out the man "en.
titled“ to the nomination. cell the caucus at
the feet moment. nominate the candidate
and force an election without giving the
voters an opportunity to mature consider

declined being a candidate again. a vote
was had. after which Seleek Y. St. John of

The usual resolutions resuming the prin-
ciples set forth by the State Convention at

were unanimously voted.
An incident at the Probate Convention.
which followed was I good definition of the
term “ tempest in a tea-pot.” After its or-
gaolzuion a motion‘ waamade that Judge
Davenport be the nominee for Judge of Pro»

and said that rather than put the motion he
would quit the chair. After some lively
akirmiebing between himself and the deio—
gatea he did an. and Capt. Webb of New
Canaan was appointed in his etcad. and the
motion was put and carried by acciamatlon.
This lively episode caused many regrets
among tht as present. Many were pained
to hear the former chairman reiterate that
he would bed d if he would vote any
ticket or with an party that put Daven-
port’s name upon their ballots. It has been
understood that the person who refused to
put the motion to nominate the .1 udgc is an
aspirant fo the judge-ship when old age
shall create ‘ vacancy. But his boyish acv
lions together with his foallsh utterances on
that occasion shows that his head is not
sufficiently balanced for the position.

Monday evening on account of the severe
storm. many were deTm-ed from coming out
and Dr. Underwood said he would not
preach in formal sermon. but would talk to
Christian workers on Mr. Moody would cell
them. “ And they that be wise shall shine
as the brightest of the armament; and they
that turn many to righteousness as the stars
for ever and ever." These three things
were true. he avid. that God converts men,
men convert each other. and men convert
themselves. It is God that converts; at the
same time it is proper to say that men cott-
vert each other. It is the Spirit of Gad
that uses memo convert men. If reform-
ed. than speaking. says : “ If the Lord had
not had mercyon me! should surely have
perished in rev sine." Another says. "If I
ad not yielded to persuasion of friends I
should certainly have perished.” .
lie then desired to present a few motives
to Christian fidelity. in the first place, be
lhltl. you may never have another charm: to
labor for the salvation of others. You may
have the last time to-night to save that per-
son. He related several instances where
persons had dela ed their salvation onl
day and yet had it cut off by death. he
most impressive ono_waa that of a young
man who only desired time enough to make
one prayer. While not riding he was
thrown from his horse. and with the words.
“ God. damn mypoul." as his last prayer.
he was ushered into eternity. That it iaour
last opportunity is certainly a ve import-
ant motlve to improve cverv e once we
have to lead souls to Christ. We tall desire
our friends. or parents. or children to be

ted. her father was a sceptie. when she

father. and said. “ Father I am convertcd.
are you not glad of it?" lie pushed her
from him and said. “ Go away from mt‘.“
" No." said she. “I am not going away until
you tell me whether yv-tl nro ultd I am con-
verted or not." “You.“ said he. "I am.“
This note young woman. with another

the Bibli‘. anti endeavored to teach the
word 0! God.lml the result was that in this
plane wncru there was no church 70 with

if a person has a heart he can do good
ant'wbcre. A person with a good heart
will often do a great deal more good than
one with more intellect and less heart.
Kore may be done at one time for the sal-
vauuu of souls than in years at Another
time. Therein nowakmd of an attune-
pberc around us which the feel and which
acts on us. As a woman came into church
tinsthought came to her. “I ought to be a
Christian." There waaa aolernnity on the
minds of the people there which she felt
and abs aatd. “I will be a Christian."
Every one that is converted ought to be the
means of converting others. Let us re.
member that.“iie who converts a alnnor
abull nave it soul irotn death.
After Dr. Underwood closed several
Christian workers gave their experience in
Christian work. with suggestions for future
labor among the poorer classes Ami places
around us not yt-t reached.

question at once presents itself to or what
are we to do with this fact of human iniqui-

own iniquitlcs.’ All sorts"! schemes have
been brought to account for it and to cure
this disease of sin but man in all his export-

not solve it.-liut Got did. God grappled it
when man oouhl not. and the way God took
was this: ” llo laid on him the iniquity of

all? Evert-whori- (lull in showing us that
the cotiarqueftt‘ea of elfl fell upon the inno-
cent. I spunk of this not that it explaineiu
the lust the theory of Christ‘s uttoncmcnt
for sin. but tn illusmtn the fact that men
can not: the name thin evory day and not
cry out auainut God. _ r. Thomas then gave
nttuirrnua illustrations showing the gn'ut
love of parents for llll‘li' t-bildn‘n Wllt‘il they
were sick or lostm: are bearing the “etvht
of some dciuttutty. [low they would do
curry-thing in their power it) aiicvinto the
sufferings of tho child. ti‘i‘ll to the laying
down oftiwlr own lives. and how much
greater war the love of GM that he
gave his only txgntten Son that man might
to sttvml. God sent him forth to seek and
awe tint which was lost. (in him was laid
out iniquity vuul on him alone. When .les-
us hung upon flu trev. he prayed for his
m'ttdctcr‘. that his father might forgive
tbeui. for they knew not what they did.-
lhov know not the dot-p damnation of tho
crime. They did not understand how black
in the sight of heaven was the deed tin-y
did. No man ever know the full sweep of
human iniquit r To know this he tnu~t
know what tint is; what bout-en is: what
perditlnn is. No mm knows that. but
Christ knows it. He knew the result. he
know tho terrlnlo consequences. lie not
only time our iniquity but be born ue wall
the shuttle. Mr. Thomas then told of a
brave fellow who am every means was ex-
liaunteii to got a line tua wrecked vessel. tied
tito lino about him and mill his companions
to [MS it out. When he reached the ship
the wuvca took him and flung him a ulnril
the side of the ship, until he dl . and
they baulud him up on the ship with the
life line in his haudr. That they might live
he died. and sothe Lorri brought in us tl.e
life line that we might got out from the
wreck of life. That we might have some-
thing on which to hold lie come down and
lat'tlte waves of sin thrust him mlmt death
until at last he died for us. There iaone
more thought in the trantucluve of Gmt
to us. I was brought up in a Sunday Schml
where they tan in me that God was a very
angry being. 0 was angry with the world
because it was turd. Thin Jesus Christ came
and got between man and God. and the Lord
instead of hitting or hit him. But 1 and it
was the Lord that laid on him the iniquity
of use". I read that the Lord so loved the
world that he gave his only begotten Son
that whosoever believeth in him abould.nut
perish but have everlasting life. God loved
you so much that he sent his Son tours
on. Come and be saved for the Lord bath
old on him the iniquity of us all.

Johnson has concluded to build hie Black-

The report that was published in several

that he was drunk at the time but we do
not know as to the truth of this. but will

Mrs. Smith is alive; has not fell down stain.
