It is the duty of the church to en.;

clearly revealed •In 'his word. If it
can be clearly proved that total sib=
stinence from all that will intoxicate
a, a beverage, is a duty enjoined by
tie Bible, it becomes the bounden
duty of the church to enforce upon
all its members t otal ~ abst nen ce.

Many youths beholding the gor
geous dyes and ruby hues of alco
holic stimulants displayed from the
windows of Satan's agents, the sa
loon keepers, are tempted to enter
those haunts of vice, 'and form, habits
of drinking that soon impair their
influence, shatter their physicalicon
stitution and ere lung hind them in
perdition. All who obey God's
edmmand, "Look not thou upon the
wine," are safe; all others are in
iniminet peril, The reason assigned
for the prohibition is certainly goOd,
"At last it biteth like a . serpent and
stingeth like an adder." Every
body denounces drunkenness; legis
lators, clergymen, magistrates, bre*-
yrs, liquor merchants, and drunkards,
theniselve.s, agree in its condemns-
tion, and expre a desire 'for Its re
moval. But, notwithstanding this
unanimity of sentiment,drunkenne
is still rife, How are we to account
for this ? Is the cause of drunken
ness some invisible aerial poison like
that which produces malaria, or ty
phus or cholera ? The answer is ob
vious—the agent which causes
Afruntenness is tangible. It is well
known it can be weighed and meas
ured and analyzed ; its name is ukte
hol. There is no mystery then as to
the origin of the cause of drunken
ness, its production and properties
being generally known. Disguised
in beer, wine and spirits, it causes
more suffering in our country than
xv ar , fain ine or pestilence. The cause
of drunkenness heink so well-known
and everybody being opyiKA to
drunkenness, it may
appear
strange
that this vice shou ld s till be so prev
alent. The true reason• why this
ice is so cont Mon is that the only
etrectue antidote—total abstinence
frau all alcUtiolic liquors—is not pop
ular. That ahstinence from the cause
of drunkenness is Mt effective pre
\ votive and Cure, no one will ven
ture to deny, and its practicability
and advantages have been clearly
proved. But abstinence is so oppos
ed to i popular prejudice and the
drinking customsof our country that
comparatively few seem prepared to
adopt this radical cure for intemper
ance. The majority of all classes de
plore the manifold evils flowing from
intemperance, but they 'are not wil
ling to strike ut the root of the evil,
by ceasing to use the liquors which
produce it. There seems to be great
inconsistency on the part ,of those
who profess themselvtes enemies to
intemperance, and yet uphold the
drinking customs of society: - Where
can we look for radical reform, but
to the Church of Christ ? Thechurch
should be the conservator of morals,
the promoter of virtue, the stern,
unyielding enemy of vice in,all its
forms and specious appearances. The
_church must not attempt to lop off
the branches, but strike at the root
of every kind of evil. When God
commands "Thou shalt not commit
adultery," he prohibits all unchaSte
thoughts, words and actions. I n the
commandment, '"Thou shalt not
kill," every thing is prohibited that
has a tendency, however remote, to
destroy life. When drunkenness is
denouneett, every think that has a
tendency to induce this vice is strict
ly prohibited :
lt is clearly the duty of the t'hureh
of Jesus Christ to refuse to receive I I
lute its communion any ivao use in
4,,xitating liquors as a beverage, or
echo manufacture ur vend them for
this purpose. it is the duty of those
ioenabers of the church who exercise
lit elective franchise to vote in favor
taws prohibiting the manufacture,
-ale, and IM us a beverage, anything
that' will intoxiente. tine hundred
thous:tud men and women are annu
ally sent to pri , on in consequence of
st rung drink. Twenty thousand
childrett are yearly sent. to the poor
house for the same reason. Three
I, waived, murders are another of the
early prints of intemperance. Four
hundml suicides tdluiv this fearful
otalogue of miseries. Two hundred 1111
urplians are bequeathed each year to
private and public charity. sixty
thousand lives are annually destroy
ed. tic intemperance in the Vnited
States. ' More than fifteen hundred
inilliuns are yearly expended to pro

THE TRUE STORY OF JEFF
DAVIS.
The Sleeping Car Incident by Eye
Witnesses—Niznw, Dates and Inci
dents.
~i~vt•cir~,TENN., July I'9, 1871
Nothing is talked about here ex
cept the late sleeping car perform
ance of Mr. Jefferson Davis. Of
course many false reports are afloat.
I have taken the trouble to 'get the
facts from eye witnesses, and give
them just as they :,actually occurred.
For a year past Mrs. B— has
been boarding at the Overton House
in this city. She is very handsome
of splendid form, is accomplished,
and a very fascinating conversation
alist. Her husband is a traveling
agent for the Southern Express Com
pany, acid is most of his time absent.
His wife is very ambitious, but he is
poor. Mr. Jefferson Davis and his
wife have been boarding at the
Peabody House. three soaves from
the Overton. For some Months past
it has been observed that, a remarka
bly intimate friendship has existed
between Mr. Davis and Mrs.
lie has paid her constant visits at
her hotel, always going &met to her
room, instead of seeing her in the
parlors. Mrs. 11 has also fre
quently visited Mr. and Mrs. D. at
their hotel? Through the ex-Presi
dent's influence she has been intro
duced into the be s t class of society,
and has recently become a member
of the choir of the St. Lazarus Epis
copal church, of which Mr. D. is a
siminent and devout (?) member.
I'ow Mr. D. is sixty-four years old ;
the fascinating Mrs. B— is twenty
eight. A most beautiful thing is
this • intense friendship between
youth and age. What could be more
natural, or more proper, or more
beautiful, than the spectacle of this
young and attractive lady, in the ab
sence of her husband, leaning for
' protection and counsel upon this wise
and great man? But people will
talk, and rumor has been busy, and
' frequently whispered questions have
been asked about some little peculi
arities cropping out itlong the even
tenor of this touchingfriendship. Io
May last Mrs. Jefferson Davis went
tUßaltimore. on a visit, where she
spent the summer :mil still remains.
About the first of July the ex-Presi
dent Made a visit to! Colonel Jett,
who resides in the Country about
seven miles from Memphis. On this . I
visit Mr. Davis was acixeripanied hy"
Mrs. B—, and the tWo remained
there over a week. Cul. Jett is a
very wealthy gentleman of the high
est standing and entire ly above re
proach. At the end a this pheasant
visit Mr. Davis and Airs. it— re
turned to The city, and the next day
together took the Memphis and
Charleston Ithilnxid and started east.
Mrs., B— was going to Chattanooga
od u visit. The ex-President was
going to Baltimore to bring his wife
home. So by this fortunate little au
cideut Mr. D. was to have the pleas
ure of Mrs. B's company for three
Hundred miles of his journey. And
what•could their be wrong in this
beautiful young wife traveling under
the protection of the sage of Rich
mond, while her husband was neces
sarily, away on business' All day
the train thundered along, dnd the
dust flew bait there were two pas
sengera who took no note of
time.. Mr. 1.1. and Mrs. B. were so
wzao.ped up in each other's society'
that they were, by some of the un
sophisticated passengers, Mistaken
fur lather and daughter, add by oth
ers for husteuel and wile. At one
time his venerable arm was. 'around
her waist, and, on several occasions,
her head rested on his shoulder.
The shades of evening overtook the
weary travelers just beyond Hunts
ville Alabama. the ex-President. is
in the habit ef traveling over that
road frequently, and has never been
known to take an upper berth in the
sleeping ear. He. is always very
Particular on this poine, and has
positively refused to sleep anywhere
e_xeept in a lower berth. On this
eventful evening (the Pith of July)
lie took whole section including
both the upper. and lower berths.
The section is No. 3, in ear No. 19.
Mr. Haines is the train conductor.
Mr. lieorge Trice is the conductor of
this sleeping tar, and Charley- Pull
en, an intelugent young colored gen
tleman, islporter. I
have seen these
gentlemen persoimlly, and 1 urn giv
ing the.faCts as they occurred on -the
tram, just as they have reported
them in writing to their superior
officers; arsi just its they stated them
to ine. After securing the section,
Mr. Davis informed Mrs. B--, and
she uddressed and retired into the
lower berth. Mr. Davis then went
to the pater and requested 'him to
have the central lamp eitat . iguiShed,
stating that Mahone down into Mrs.
B.'s bed, and was disagreeable to
her, as she was a little nervous. The
conductor, Mr. Trice, was consulted,
and thpatrip was not extinguished,
ictli as entirely contrary to their
cum. The conductor went into
the next car forward. The porter
was at the rear end of the 'ear. Mr.
Davis undressed add got into the
same berth with Mrs. B—. In or
der to be certain, the porter quietly
looked between the curtains, and
there they were. lie immediately re -
porte&lo Mr. Triie ' who then came
and quietly looked between the cur
tains-=and there they were. Thee
and the porter then withdrew to the
end of the ear, and the porter was
dispatched for Mr. Ruins, the train
conductor.. lialues'came and quiet
ly looked through the curtains—and
there they were. After consultation
in the parlor at the (rout end of the
ear, the two conductors decided that
such conduct could not be tolerated,
and the porter was sent' back to tell
Mr. Davis that he must takeen•ather
berth. CharleymWo uietly looked
through the eurtains— q and there they
were. He returned and mid, "Pon
my word I ain't gut the heart to
scare him out." After a few mo
ments more of consultation the por
ter was sent back with the same or
ders. He quietly looked through
the curtains. Mrs. B— was wrap•
ped in the sheets, apparently sound
asleep. The venerable ex-President
was sitting bait upright In the upper
berthjust in the set ataking a horn
of whiskey 'from a atrial! pocket flask!
These three men will make oath
to these facts whenever and wherev
er it is necessary. .Strong efforts '
have been made to get them away.
Threats have been uttered against
their lives, and large sums of money
have been offered them to leave here,
or make false statements of the mat 2
ter; but they are all honorable men
and will stand by their word.
Mr. Davis telegraphed when he
saw the report that he would return
without delay and prove the story
false,-but he has not returned, and it
Is now reported on good authority
that he will remain away until fall.
The indignation against him here is
intense. Everybody believes the
story implicitly. T. E. J.
—Some years ago a gentleman liv
ing in one of the frontier towns of a
far Western State, had some friends
staying with him, to whom he gave
a little dinner—the best the place
could afford—and invited, to meet
them, a few half-civilized Indians.
Of course the "noble red men," were
treated to delicacies they had not
seen before, and displayed a perhaps
excusable inclination to ge through
the bill of fare. A young chief who
had partaken of nearly everything
on the table, had been eying the
mustard for mine time, no doubt
- , thinking that, such a pretty paste
would taste as good as it looked. At
length, opportunity occurring, lie
reached forth in a dignified manner,
took a liberal spoonful and swallowed
it without moving a muscle of his
countenance; but, in spite of his ut
most exertions the tears soon stream
ed down his cheeks. An aged chief
opposite him, who had been watch
ing the whole proceeding, leaned
forward and inquired what he was
crying for, lie replied: "I was
thinking of my poor old father, who
died a short time ago.' Soon after,
the old man, being unable to restrain
his curiosity, also took a dip from the
mustard-pot, and swallowed it with
out the quivering of a muscle; but
his eyes were not as strong as his
will, and the tearssoou trickled down
his clicks. It was now the young
man's turn. Leaning forward, 'he
inquired the cause of the grief ;, to
which the elderly red party quickly
replied, "I was thinking that it 411:4

old father. did."
About Beefideaks.
Beefsteaks were discovered in an
cient times, by a Boman priest,
whose naine we forget, though item
be found in a book, the title of which
we don't remember. He had been
broiling a piece of steak, to be offered
to the god in whasetern ple he officiat
ed, and seizing it by the thumb
and forefinger, for the purpose of
conveying it to the altar, he found it
so hot that he was compelled to drop
it, and instinetivelxput his finger in
his mouth. They happened to be
covered with the juice of the steitk,
which he tasted, and lost all sense of
pain, in the exquisite enjoyment
thus conveyed to the palate. Being
a Alan of genius, he placed - . another
slice upon the coals, which, being
cooked, he innocently devoured, los
ing sight of his official duties, which
required that it should be place i be
fore the god. For a long time he
pursued this course until his sleek
aßpearance attracted attention, and
he was watched and the secret dis
covered. lie would have been put
to death, but for the judge, on his tri
al eating a steak, whereupon he was
acquitted, and made a Pontffex
! Maximus (High Prieit) as a reward
for the benefit he had conferred on
mankind. Beefsteaks became a
rage, and there were broils_going on
all over the empire; for the Romans
were a little more quick witted than
the Chinese, who deemed it necessary
to burn down a house to mast a pig.
It was a blessed day for mortals that
the priest burnt his fingers.
The Climate of Calitbrala.
Dan. Marble, strolling along the
wharves at Huston, met a tall, gaunt
looking figure, a "Digger from Cali
fornia, and got into conversation
with him. "Healthy climate, I sup
pose?" a llealthy ! It ain't any
thing else. Why, stranger, you can
choose - any climate you like—hot or
cold-zand that without travelin'
more than fifteen minutes. Jest think
o' that the next cold morning when
you get out o' bed. There'sa moun
tain there, a Sawyer Nevada they call
it, with a valley on each side of it,
the one hot, and the other cold.
Well, get on the top of that moun
tain, with a double-barrelled gun,
and you can, without movin', kill
either winter or summer game, jest
as you will." "What! have you ev
er tried it?" Tried iti - Often, and
should have done Pretty but for OHO
thing." Well, what was that? "1
wanted a dog, that &mid stand both
climates. The last dog I had froze
off his tall while pintin' ou the sum

of the winter side, you see. Trew as
you live!" Marble sloped.
