. at Carlisle, April I.4th and 10th, ,pass pd
unanimously, the following paper on4he
subject of intemperance, and directed it
to be published . widely in the religious
and secular jouruals.Of the day, and to be
read from the pulpits of the churches un

ed of some 44 ministers and 47 churches
iu the counties of Dauphin, Cumberland,
Adams, Franklin, Felton and Perry,)°
Called, in the Providence of God, to
meet at a time of general and deep inter
est on the subject of intemperance, the
Presbytery of . Carlisle, true' to the past
history a our church, would again ex-
press 'ite earnest convictions npqa this ha
pqrtan t matter.
L regard with devput gratitude
and: praise to Gqd that Divine 9inekenmg .
of public seutinsept awl ponspience, thro
the agency of Christian women, which has
heen inantlested in so large a part of qur
couatry, We rejoice in that spirit of love
and tenderness and Christian zeal wi th
Which they have carried on their work ;
in their evident dependence, through pray
er Upon the Spirit of God and the power

and unexampled success which has alrea

11. Recognizing the fact, that while the.
State has suffered, and society has suffer
ed, and the Church of - Christ - has - great y
suffered for generations past from this
fearfql vice of drnultenness, and crime of

111. Deeply deploring the apathy man-•
ifted by many professing - Chrisdans - to=

commend to all the members of the
churches under our care, that they he
found the fast and unflinching and active
friends of temperance ; that they abstain
from all customs and fashions that would
countenance to any extent the sin of in
temperanpe ; that they avoid even the apr
peatance of evil ; that they disentangle
themselves frpzo all implications with the
trade, use and manufacture of ardent spit.,
its ; that they present in their whole lives.

will intoxicate, a standing exemplication
of the noble spirit of gaul who said, "It
is good neither to eat flesh nor to drink
wine, nor anytbing whereby thy brother
stumbleth, is ettended or made weak."
IV. Believing that intemperance is not
only a bitter curse to man, and a foe to
his dearest interests in this life and in'the
life to come, but a great sin against God,
and a mighty obstruction to the progress
of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ in
'the world, we earnestly invoke all our
ministers and elders and church members
to bring the whole weight of their influ
ence against it, iu the regulation of their
own family customs ; in a sedulous care•
for the purity of the church from all com
plicity with the evil ; in the careful in
struction of your youth in the Sabbath
Schools; by such pnl)lic efforts through
out their communities as shall at once
and forever give to our religion its true
position of irreconcilable opposition to a
vice and a sin so enormous in its mischiefs
and so disgraceful to the Christian name.
REFORM AT THE TABLE.—Madame Loy
son, wife of Pere Hyacinthe writes to the
New York Herald, on the subject of tem
perance, offering her counsel and exmour
agement to the women engaged in the Tem
perance Crusade. In the course alter let
ter she says:
"Thp great 4i:clerical} malady' is the
malady of the stomach. Cousetentious
people become dyspeptics ; non conscien
tious peoplo become drinkers, Bear in
mind this fact, that the appetite for drink
is not necessarily made by drinking, but
is nine cases out of ten it is created and
cultivated at your tables—in your c/}il
dren—by the use of coffee, tea, pepper,
pickles, mustard, splce,s, too much salt,
hot bread and pastry, raw meat and grease,
and, above all, by the lase of tobacco. The
cry of a depraved appetite, an inflamed
stomach, is always for something stronger.
The use of sour milk, and salad, prepar
ed with good oil, should be cultivated.in
short, reform your tables if you would re-
Iwo) yopr drunkards and save your sons."

by reference to the appointments of coun

five per cent, will be made on taxes If
paid at the places advertised, or at the

SOLD.—One day last week Mr. Ditch
of Five Forks, Quincy township, sold the
calf to which we referred sometime since.
It was three weeks old and weighed one
hundred and fifty-five pounds. Mr. S. S.
Wingert, one of the most enterprising far
mers in that section, was 'the purchaser.
STATEMENT.—We call attention to the
Borough Statement. in to-day's paper. It
will be seen that the borough's indebted

ed. The Statement is a very satisfactory

ment of Mr. Reid, who has shown consid
erable enterprise in receiving a box of
choice flower seeds. Our lady readers
can obtain the same varieties from Mr.
Reid that they have heretofore been com

APPLES.—The apple crop is said to be
exhausted in this region. Dealers in such
articles who are too stingy or too careless
to advertise allege they are not in the
country. We would add for the benefit
of seller and buyer—gratuitously—that
just now no better market for the sale of
apples can well be found than Waynes

A CASE OF Locs•JAa.—Mr. Benjamin
Frick informs us that quite recently he
had a colt suffering with lock jaw which
was successfully treated by Dr. Bowls of

Bowls as n horse doctor.

SerQuite recently we noticed the a

impression on our mind is that, the locusts
make their appearancp p,yery seventeen
instead of seven years, and that their next
appearance as an army will l/e daring the
summer of 1884.
OLD PAPER.—We are iudehted to Mr.
Geo. J. Balsley for a copy of the Frank
an Repository, published, April 1.9, 1825,
by George K. Harper, long since deceas
ed. The impression is still good, but the
old-fashioned type and make pp gives it
an odd appearance. According to its mar
ket quotations flour was then selling at
$4.75 to $5.00 per barrel ; corn 35 to
.38
cents per bushel, rye 37 to 40 cents, whis•
Icy 23 cents per gallon, apple brandy 27
cents. What will the topers of '74 think
oE these last quotations? Painting a nose
forty-nine years ago was certainly not a
very expensive undertaking.

W. M. R. R.--The Western Maryland
Railroad Company has at last got a live
man at the head of its affairs. President
Hood we are informed is going over the
line from Baltimore to Williamsport, on
foot, with overcoat on his arm, and look
ing very much like any other common
man. His' object is doubtless to see for
himself who are and who are not doing
their duty. We are also informed that
be has recently reduced both freight and
fare, and is offering such other facilities
as will command not only thelrade of our
town and vicinity but the warmest sym
pathy of the people generally. 'We fur
ther learn that the road between the turn
pike and Waynesboro' Station will short
ly be much Unproved, making the road
easier of access for farmers and others.=
As there seems at present no prospect of
a branch connection with our town, we
regard this latter movement as a very ne
cessary and important one. .
AngryEn.—The first Granger Baby,
under the auspices of the Waynesboro'
Grange, made its appearance near the
Marsh last week. As a. specimen, it is
considered first-rate, not differing howev
er, as much from the old fashioned unim
proved stock as some persons might sup
pose. It is general'y acknowledged how
ever, to be rather better looking and in its
manners more aelf-reliant, utterly ignoring
the services of the "Middle men" and in
sists an. drawing its supplies from first
sources.
OUT DOOR RELIEF.—The Directors of
the Poor for Franklin County, at their
monthly meeting on Monday last, decid
ed not to accept any more new applica
tions for out door relief. Ail persons
seeking relief whose names are not• now
on the roll, must go to the Almshouse
and be supported there if they need assis
tance. Such a flood of applications have
been pouring in for out door relief from
person not absolutely in want, that the
directors have had to take the above ac
tion.
'Bus TANE.—We direct attention to the
advt. of one of our enterprising mail con
tractors and liverymen, Mr. J. R. IVol
fersberger, in .to•day's paper. It will be
seen that he now occupies the same of
fice and stable that he did a. dozen or
more years ago.

SPREAD OF TEMPERANCE.—A writer
in one of,onr.exchanges forcibly remarks;
that "temperaace is spreading the civiliz
ed world over, and our, crisabera„ hive
fired verbal shots that, like th, detonations
of the guns of the Massachusetts farmers
at Lexington, are reverberating around
the world. Even tippling*France has ta
ken the moderation bibulous fever, quite
as a matter of course, in a very mild way.
Temperance societies are being formed
throughout the French Republic, not,
however, after our ultra American 4aslp
ino. MeMbers of the orders of sobriety
in France pledge themselves not to par
take of alcoholic stimulants during the
hilliness hours of the day. •At meals they
are to imbibe at pleasure of malt dranghts
and wines, the grade of theserefreshrnents
to be decided by the pulse of the drink
ers. To onr intense total abstinence peo
ple the French notion of temperance may
seem a futile one, yet it is likely to aecora
plish more real good in the praiseworthy
campaigU against inebriation than the
American method of extremes, a system
of reform really as devoid of reason and
common sense as is the poor drunkard
hithself. It' our temperance friends will
temper their worthy reform with moder
ation the good that they will accomplish
taut affair they are managing better in
France."
This, says the M aryland Republican, is
truly_gl&dsomeintelligence.-Let-us-hope
it may ccntinue to spread until practiced
temperance in all things cover the earth
as the waters cover the sea. Whilst we
differ somewhat from the mode and man
ner of the women's crusade, yet if it
ameliorate, even to some extent, the teed.
ble evil of intemperance, so much at least
is gained. We therefore approve in the
main the ladies in whatever course they_
think most judicious and effective for the
time being. When united in a grand ef
fort they are seldom found on the side of
positive error. None, certainly, cau be
more directly_interested having men espec, _
ially husbands, fathers, brothers and rela
uves—•ep so er, n ie •
all depends upon it. Great moral, physi
cal and national revolutions often spring
form seemingly trivial or singular causes.
The temperance revolution may, in after
time, should success erpwn its efforts, be
traced to woman. When it has culminat
ed and taken deep root, other works less
arduous and more agreeable may be found
for these ardent crusaders We favor all
effective means to promote temperance.
TauF..—An exchange says with much
truth that meanness and stinginess often
go hand in hand. To be sure, there are a
class of misers who do ne one any partic
ular harm, and who hoard money merely
for the gratification of a morbid desire for
its possession, keeping it secure from the
world where it can be of no use to any
one. Ou the other hand, there are those
who devote their whole lives to money
making, and whose sole ambition is the
accumulatiOn of wealth. They will never
invest their capital where they are not
sure it will return them large profits; suf
fering humanity is never benefited by their
riches. So greedy, debased and hardened
do the hearts of such men become, that
they will practice every deception, every
artifice, anything short of downright rob
bery, to add to their store.
Every enterprising community knows
the advantages of wealth, and naturally
looks to the man possessing it as a means
of adding to the growth and advancement
of their village. But the good the class
we have mentioned do is of little value to
the community ; in fact, it is questionable
if their citizenship is . otherwise than det
rimental to the place where they make
their residence. Money loaned only to
those who are able to pay usurious inter
est rarely helps the poor, and adds no
substantial benefits or improvements to
the village or city.
The habit of saving, to a certain extent,
is no doubt a commendable one but when
practiced so far as to beeome selfish pe
nuriousness, it is far from being a virtue.
THE CAMP.—The directors of the C. V.
Campmeeting Association met in Carlisle
on the 28th ult., and it was decided to
hold their nest annual meeting commenc

ten days. The camp is to be lit up "by
coal oil torches; a fence will be placed a
round the ground, and some other improv
ements in the building of tents—not as
one of the Harrisburg papers has stated,
as to erecting a large tabernacle and three
preaching stands, but a great many im
provements will be made. The boarding
tent will be conducted as last year, by the
Association, under the supervision of Mr.
