A Dog-ged Trick.
For some time past our• town has
been the nursery of straggling dogs,
which we understand have been ship
ped in freight cars from the city of Al
taona. This dodge by our city neigh
bors has more impudence in it than
good sense, and we would recommend
to the authorities there that if they
cannot get rid of their worthless curs
in a better manner, they had better
have more respect for the canines'
feelings of hunger than to send them
here to starve, as nobody wants to keep
such dogs as the Altoonians take this
mode to get rid of. Wo have more
than our share of such brutes now, and
we would advise owners in Altoona
to attend to their own hydrophobic
cases, or else the game of retaliation
will be tried.

that two better business men cannot

careful and prompt attention to its

To the Pastors, Office Bearers, and Mem
bers of the Christian Churches
of Huntingdon.
The undersigned have been appointed a
Committee on Temperance, by the Young
Men's Christian Association, with instruc
tions to address the churches upon the sub
ject. We desire to perform this duty in no
censorious spirit, and with no pretension to
any right to teach. We only ask a careful
and christian consideration of a new plea for
a cause always before us.
The Association wishes to do something
against the vice, which is hurrying to de
struction so ninny of our race and even those
dear to us, but we cannot sea a way to work
effectually, as a body of christians, without
the full sympathy and aid of the churches.
We do not here offer any information of
the nature and extent of the evil of intemper
ance, because wo feel that at this day it is as
visible as the light of the sun to nil who will
see and hear and read.
We shall assume that you hear the great
and ever-swelling cry far help in the contest
for Temperance.
We shall assume, without argument, that
you, in common with christians in general,
believe that the grace of God is the only suffi
cient power with which to combat this evil.
We shall assume that experience has
taught that the effort to combat this evil is
not hopeless, and hence, if the contest is not
made, we have neglected to do what we
could, and ruin has come, to some, from our
neglect. •
This, then, is an imperative and urgent
call upon christians to work "quickly;" for,
if it is true in general that man's day of grace
is short, much more is it true of those who
are madly shortening their day and shutting
themselves too speedily in that night, from
which we hear only the sentence, "No drun
kard. shall inherit eternal life:" It is no less
true that as quickly as oho passeS away ano
ther—Some one's cherished hope and pride—
is following the first steps in the same course.
We think it not too much to assume that
the christians we address, hear and admit
this call to 'work. If this is so, we have only
to discuss what can be done by churches, as
churches, to meet this call.
In many places in our country a new phase
of temperance agitation has recently been
seen, which is so wholly fit and proper a me
thod for churches that we know of no valid
objection to its general adoption. It is, the
preaching of temperance sermons and the
formation of Church Temperance Societies in
each church.
This proper christian method has been
wonderfully successful, so that almost the
whole membership of churches, 'before doing
little or nothing in the cause, has been
brought into active work, and the community
has been made to sec clearly and to feel that
Temperance was one of the christian virtues,
enforced by those churches; and that that
virtue was not only shown by abstinence front
drunkenness, but by an active opposition to
and condemnation of all tharpromotes intem
perance.
'We deeply feel that so long as members of
churches can be pointed to as giving encour
agement, by example or otherwise, to drink
ing or to selling of intoxicating liquor, we
cannot put forward, with proper effect, the
duty of practicing Tempeyance as a christian
virtue. We especially feel that all argument
is lost upon men of the world, interested in
or favoring the traffic, when they can point
to members of the church who are directly
or indirectly sharers of its profits. There is
logic used in the bar-room and even in the
gutter, which, if not sound, is far too effect
ual, and its culmination is reached in what
is believed to be unanswerable argument
when it can name one otherwise undoubted
christian as a sharer in the traffic.
Common reason argues, and truly, that so
far as action shows, a church consents to that
which its members do, openly and persistent
ly, without censure and considers it not in
violation of covenant duty nor christian spir
it. If a church so consents to the liquor
traffic its influence is certainly for the traffic
so far ns it has any effect ; and such an influ
ence is harder for temperance men to combat
than all others combined.
May we not safely say that if all church
members consented to the traffic, opposition
would be hopeless? If so, it follows that all
members and all churches, as churches, who
so consent, are really helping to swell the
tide of destruction and bind the hands of
those who oppose it.
In view of these and many other reasons,
we, as instructed by the Young Men's Chris.
tian Association, do most earnestly but most
respectfully suggest the preaching of temper
ance sermons and the formation of Church
Temperance Societies, and ask that the chur
ches will, so far as their respective laws al
low, free themselves from all responsibility
for the evils of intemperance.
