Tho Temperance Crusade,
ft - L . . ' 1
u attempt to organize a temperance
ciusaae id t'lttsburga is meeting with
unexpected difficulties. Tho iuitiul
steps were taken last week. Some ot
the more aggressive tempcranco people
assembled antf resolved that tho Ohio
- plan of singing find praying at tho rum
sellers and their patrons should be
adopted. Miss Ella Becson, secretary
or" the preliminary organization, on Sat
urday last addressed postal cards to all
tno I'rotostant clergymen of tho city
asking them to announce from their put
pits a meeting to be held at the
Temperance Alliance Rooms. The no
tioe was not sent to the Knman Catholic
'ergy, because they were understood to
De opposed to the utilization ot lovely
woman lor tno purpose ot besieging vile
resorts.
AhO Profestaot minister), though
mey were notinod, proved to bo uot
much more favorable to tho movement
Several of them neither read tho no
tice, uor inudo any allusion to it. All
the Episcopalian clergymen ignored it
entirely. The Presbyterians read the
notice, but cautioned their congrega
tions not to tuke any tash measures
Several of them declined to iuako any
recommendation at all concerning it.
Toe Baptists and most of the others
were equally undecided, many frankly
.-! .1... .1 ! 1 . . J
Dialing uiui. tuuy preierrea w give 110
opinion on the subject. Only one pas.
tor, a United I'resDytenao, gave the
movement an unqualified endorsement.
Borne of the Methodists read the notice
without comment, but llov. J. L,
Simpson, of the First Methodist Church,
Alleghany, gave tho movement a back
hand blow in a sermon creuched from
the following text; "And besides this,
giving all diligence to your faith, add
virtue) and to virtue knowledge;
and to knowledge temperance;
and to temperance patience;
and to patience godliness." He claimed
not to be opposed to the movement, but
reminded his hearers that the Bible en
Joins temperance in all things. "There
is decidedly too much (temperance
these days in the cry of temperance, ac
cording to the teachings of the Bible.
The only temperance as to driuk which
tho Bible teaches, is for man to -ouch,
taste, and handle not." Ho added, ac
cording to the report which wo lind iu a
Pittsburgh paper: ''There is such u
thing as beiug too iu temperate in word
and action, and when that is carried to
too great an extent, it is liable to result
ofttimes in more injury than good. Ia
the present age there seems to bee tou
much ot a habit among temperance
politicians to villify and scandalize those
who opposo them . This is uo way to
accomplish the desired end no way to
conciliate thoso against them. Temper
ance in the true acceptation of the word,
must be regarded in everything."
Now that this intemperate temperance
furore is sweepiug over the country and
disturbing the mental balance of so
many good people, we need more oi
such dispassionate and genuine temper
ance talk as that addressed by tho Kev.
Mr. Simpson to his congregation. Man
kind are ever prone to excesses. It is
a weakness which manifests itself in
many different ways at one time in
hangiug witches, at an other in ruuning
alter a popular preacher or prima donna;
now in gluttonous leasting, or drunken
orgies, or fashionable dissipation, or ex
travagaut movements directed against
such evils. It is the part oi true
wisdom, and strength, and bobcrness to
use all the good gifts of the Creator in
moderation, and especially to proceed
with moderation and discretion in our
efforts to restrain our neighbors who are
addicted to any form of intemperance.
There is no place in such a field of effort
for fury or fanaticism,
From the PiiUluryh Telegraph,
A Beply to Mr. Dawea..
The late speech of Mr. Dawos, of
Massachusetts, in the Ilonso of Repre
sentatives, on the financial condition and
expenditures of the government, has
been generally accepted as a free aud
possibly extravagent criticism in the ad
ministration and majority iu Congress.
In tho House a day or two since, Mr.
Ellis II. Roberts, of New York, also a
member of tli Ways and Means Com
mittee, and. a gentleman always well
posted and reliable, mado a careful
speech, in which ho courteously criti
cised Mr. Dawes' gloomy view of the
financial situation. Mr. P.oberts takes
a more cheerful view, and shows that
the United Treasury is still very far
from going to protest. He finds the
condition of the country in the first
week of March very different from its
cooditiou in the first week of December.
In the latter month the Sncietary of the
Treasury transmitted to the House a
letter asking for increased taxation in
view of a possible deficit, and fixed the
estimates of recoipU. for tho fiscal year
at 8271,000,000. Mr. Roberts believes
that to this estimate of receipts from
J55.0OO.000 to 8,000,000 may be
added from internal revenue sonree',
and from $10,000,000 to 12,000,001.
from customs, and that the proper esti
mates for the receipts is 8288.000,000.
Ho showed the fact that nsido from the
84,000,000 made necessary by tho Vir
fjinius excitement, the expenditures for
tho portion of tho fiscal year which has
now elapsed ate lcs9 than for the corres
ponding portion of last year by $2,440,
(534. Tho Statement for February adds
aomelhing in favor of this year. Mr.
Roberts thought that Mr. Dowe bad
unfairly represented the condition of the
Nationol Treasury. This was especially !
truo of the statcnieut which was the ;
.-limax of liU speech that, while the ex-'
j.enditurcs for last year were $290,000,. J
VC0, with a reduction ot the pnblio
TIknbt A. Parsons, Jr.
debt. These $319,1)00,000 em med
the sinking fund, and, hud the proper
deductions been made, a deoreasii g
eoale of expenditures during President
Grant's administration, would be shown.
This scale ia represented as follows:
1805,8322,000,000, 1370, $300,000,.
000; 1871, 8292,000,000; 1872, $277-,
000,000; 1873, $290,000 000; 1874,
$289,000,000. Even adding tho Span!
ish war excitement expenditure ot $1,
000,000, the expenditures obove the
last year were less than $2,000,000.
Besides, thero have been taken from the
Treasury this year already, $12,000,000
for the siuking fund, and $0,000,000 in
gold for partial redemption of tho loan
of 1858. The financial condition of
January and February lend espeoial
confidence to this hopeful view. In
January the reduction of the debt was
SI, 185, 211, against an increase in
January of last year of $406,000, whioh
is a better statement for this year by
$2,500,000. In February the expendi
tures were less thau for the same month
last year, and the reduction of tho pub
lio debt was $2,500,000, an amount
greater than the demand upon the
Treasury for the sinking fund. Mr.
Roberts was confident that wo are ap
proaching the next fisoal year with an
improving treasury, and thero was no
need of inflation, tax meddling, or tariff
uo&enng.
Tho Western Canada Oil Compauy
have shut down about fifty of their wells,
throwing about seventy-five men out of
employment. The oause of the suspen
sion is the depressed state of the oil
market.
TJHYS1C1AN8 AND DRUGGISTS.
A prominent Now York physician lately
complained to Dundas Dick, about uis San
dalwood Oil Cnpsulas, hinting that Bome
titnes they cured miraculously ; but that a
patient of his had taken them for someliui
vvithout effect. On being informed that
several imitations were made nnd sold, ha
inquired and found that his patient had
been taking capsulas sold in bottles, aud not

Wiat happened to this physician may have
happened to others, anU D LINDAS DICK &
CO., take this method of protecting "Oil of
Sandalwood" from this disrepute.

Capsulas will CONTINUE TO DO SO, for
they contain the PIKE OIL in the BEST

The TELEGRAl'H will maintain its po

HAIR
RENEWER.
Every year increases the popularity
of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. Wo can
assure our old patrons that it is kept
fully up to its high standard ; and it
is the only reliable and perfected prep
aration for restoring Gray or Faded
Hair to its youthful color, makine it
soft, lustrous, and eilken. The scalp,
by its use, becomes white and clean.
It removes all eruptions and dandruff,
and, by its tonic properties, prevents
the hair from falling out, as it stimu
lates and nourishes tbe liair-glanas.
By its use, the hair grows thicker and
stronger. In baldness, it restores tho
capillary glands to their normal vigor,
and will create a new growth, except
in extreme old age. It is the most
economical Hair Dressing ever used,
as it requires fewer applications, and
gives the hair a splendid, glossy ap
pearance. A. A. Ilayes, JLD., State
Assayer of Massachusetts, says, "The
constituents are pure, and carefully
selected for excellent quality; and I
consider it tho Best Frepabatiox
for its intended purposes."
