PITTSBURG El Tit CRS DAY, OCTOBER 29. L. 6 ‘rso - - 4-10 Where there to no Law there le no Freedom. The Union as it Was, The 4Canstitation as It Is *POLITICAL PREACH I NO." We commend the article in this paper under the above head, to all preachers who are disposed to declaim against the Dem• ocratic party, and especially to one of our city clergymen, "who will understand it." THE PRESIDKNT AND OUR GEN ERALS It was said of President PIERCR that whenever he invited an office-hunter to dine or sip tea with him, it was a sure sign that he did not intend appointing him. One, of the many who tilted for appoint ments, carried off the prize, while the bal ance had to content themselves with such slices as the larder of the White House supplied. President LINCOLN seems to possess a touch of Gen. PIERCE'S disposition, in the particular referred to. When he is con templating the decapitation of his officers, he invites them to Washington to visit him, or if ths.y be too far c ff, he sends them let ters, congratulatory of their successes, and thanking them iu the name of the country and oar sacred cause. A short time previous to the removal of Gen. MoCLELLAN, President LINCOLN en dorsed and eulogized him in a' public speech in Washington ; soon after he vis ite& him in the field, and ofter reposing in McCLELLAres tent,'and comparing notes with him as to the military situation, be pronounced the youthfill commander the genius of the war. In less than a week after this McCLELLAN was removed. Pas sing over Polk BURNSIDE and HOOKER, who were ousted more expeditiously than some others, we now come to Gen. Rose- CRAWS. That General, who, up until a few weeks ago, was pronounced the very head and frOnt of successful Generals, has been relieved, and we find by his speech in Cin ainnati that just previous to his retngval, he received a letter from the President of the most flattering character. Here is what the Gen. said : " There'ore, I say to all whose satisfaction to day is marred by the mingling of some disp_si don to question the action of the Government, that it would be well to stifle their feeling-^, and leave that matter for further light. I tr ay say this much. that the President of the Unit^d States, since the ban'e of Chickamauga, has written 'flicsoersow 7 l4, to express hie entire confidence in me." In view of this, Gen. RosEceans-' remo val is one of the most extraordinary events of the war. But it is possible that the War Secretary and Gen. HALLEEK, sometimes act upon their own motion, in dependent of the Executive ; in no other way can we account for the removal of the successful General in question. In addition to this, going to prove con flicting counsels and conduct by the Ad ministration, we now have it authorita tively announced that, notwithstanding the President's late eulogium upon Gen. /MEADE, that general has beet positively removed. The telegraph announces this upon the most reliable authority ; and we are disposed to credit it, because GI the President being so sweet upon him—a sure indication of the General's decapitation. It may be that the War Department and HALLECS. are determined, whenever the President manifest unusual regal d for a rising general, to trip him up, in order to reserve all the glory for themselves. In no other way can we account for sush ex traordinary and, apparently, inexplicable proceedings. A letter from the President thanking an officer for his success, ac— companied by an order from the War Department,- removing that General from his command, is one of the bits of mili tary strategy, which would confound our ablest tacticians, and puzzle even the as Lute heads who write elaborately upon the "situation " A SCANDALOUS BUSINESS The country may make up its mind, says the World, that the campaign in Virginia is over until after th 3 New York election, fur the reason that the army is being depleted of New York soldiers coming home to vote. An order has already been issued by STANTON allowing a furlough to all disabled or sick soldiers of the New York regiments,•who may at once return to their homes, at the public expense, and remain until the 10th of November next. Of course, only such as are of the right stripe will be allowed to come home, and we further understand that this order applied to ailing soldiers in camp as well as those in hospitals. The object, of course, is to send home every soldier who pledges him self to vote for the Republican 'ticket. He will be allowed to play sick if his politics are all right. When the war office organ and the ad• ministration papers announced that Gen eral MEADS could not do anythieg for threa_weeks, because it would take. that much time to repair the railroad destroyed by the rebels, they offered it as an excuse for the enforced idleness of the army, which will really be due to the absence of the New York troops. HEENAN AND }LING.—We see it stated that the fight for the championship of the British Prize Ring between Heenan and Bing is to come off on the Bth of Decem ber. 11,-enan has gone into training, and a New York sporting journal assures its renders that his friends may rest assured that nothing will be negleoted that will tend to a successful issue of his passage at arms with King who is said to be in the best of health, and tiffs also commenced his pre liminary czerctses to reduce his avoirdu pois. Betting is altogether in- favor of Heenan, so ranch so that it wilt be difficult for hts friends to "get on" to the extent they- wish. A number of Heenan's friends from New York,: Boston - , Phila delphia. and other cities, intend embark ing for England in time to see "the big fight," as they term it ; but the "rate of hobexcange"ld other wis e so inst them that many wou be there will be con strained to stay in Uncle Sam's, domin- ions. .bi the eoule of all good men there is a great crusade—for the spirit not the tomb of Jesus. POST. Poe The Yceit There are several clerical pretenders in this county, who have been riding about to political meetings, seeking Democrats tint they mightdevour them. In company with party brawlers whose morale are none of the purest, they have taken the stump to make speeches for a man to whom not one of them dare administer the comma nionoinfit as they may to perform that ca sred office, for any recipient whatsoever. And the candidate they supported, steep• ed as he is in infamy, denounced as he has been by men who act with him in politics, for fraud, for peculation, for falsehood, for swindling, and even for theft- this man would not dare to present his polluted lips to any of his tainted clerical supporters to receive that awful sacrament. Of such preachers I have nothing to say- 7 they are joined to their idols-they should be let alone. But there are some other preachers whose tendencies are in the same direction, who yet be warned in time to avoid the folly and the guilt of their rampant politi cal brethren. One of these, who although very de cided in his political views, has commend ably forborne to take active part in the late canvass in or out of the pulpit-one noted for his gentle manners, his truly Christian deportment, and honeyed persuasive elo quence, took occasion, a few weeks ago, to say something slightly harsh to those of his flock who did not vote as ho did. After the election he again preached on public affairs, and seemed to reproach himself that he had not taken more de cided part in the recent canvass-he said that there should be but one party in pot itics•-that, in future, he should take more positive ground, &c. Now, Reverend a ud most amiable sir, permit a fellow citizen respectfully to sug gest that continued abstinence from polit ical preaching will be the meet effective way in which you can pursue your holy calling, for you can only do this by having the love and respect of all scrte of peo ple. In the county where you live, which contains, we will suppose, 25,000 legal voters, more than 10,000 of these, after a thorough and sharp discussion of all the matters that fall pr operly within the scope of a political canvass, have solemnly vo ted against the policy and practices of the ruling powers. Out of every five men you may meet in this county, two are op posed to the doctrines and the doings of the dominant party. And in our good old Commonwealth, there are 254,000 voters, who, fully understanding (or believing they understand, which is the genie thing) their. duty to their country and their God, have solemnly declared that they cannot belong to the "one party" which you pro pose to sustain from your sacred desk. And remember, Reverend Sir, that if you pass through the State from the Delaware to Little Beaver, and from Lake Erie to our Southern border, you will fled, for every man who voted fir the sinful CUR TIN you so much admire, another man who did not vote for him. This settled state of popular feeling, most excellent sir should convince you that political conformity is not so easy a matter as you might euppose, and could not have been procured, perhaps, even if you had plunged into the arena. yourself, as you regret that you failed to do. "'Nor is there any man who knows better than yourself how hard it is to control diversities of thought, even upon the most trifling mat ters within the church itself, where you and thousands beside you, as eloquent, as meek, as self-sacrificing and as humble ae you are, toil for Christian unity with unflagging zeal. Why, sir, you know much better than I do, how your own especial church suffers and has suffered from petty (and not the less bitter because petty) disputes and divisions. There have been separations because one portion of your people would sing hymns, and an other would not-because one portion would nee ROUSE'S version of the Psalms in singing their Maker's praises, and an other would not-and you doubtless are advised that in eur own county, one of the congregations iu your communion is about to part in bitterness and bad blood, because a portion will not worship with the aid of an organ ! You know, Revor• end Sir, much better than a poor layman like me, how many different sects the Calvinists of christendom comprise. And if all the oil that can be poured upon the troubled waters of religions dissension by the myriads of pious men who labor with you in that blessed behalf-if all the gentle ministrations of which you are so emi nently capable, can not make your jarring sects into one church, how, most excellent air, can you expect to subdue the fierce political partisans of our country into one party ? Think for a moment, respected sir, how impossible this attempt would be, and give over,fcr ever and ever,all idea of politi cal preaching. Do not forget, I pray you, how your co laborera in the church have lowered themselves who have committed this great folly-and while I would not compare you with Hugh Kirkland or the late Joseph Barker, remember their fate -nor should you tarn aside your gaze from the piteous spectacle presented in the fall of the Rt. Rev. Bishop Porrze and the misguided clergymen who joined him in a late electioneering paper-striving, as you are, to convert all men_ to one political party. Permit me, Reverend Sir, to -show ycu how unfair and unjust it is to preach pol itics-how much religion hoses, and how little the church has ever gained by such departures from plain clerical duty. If the preacher of the gospel is to benefit his hearers, he mast, I apprehend, have for the time he speaks to them, their whole confidence and attention. They must cast behind them, as they enter the sanctuary, all worldly thoughts-they go to hear the Word of God, and not to be - troubled by the , wrath of Man. And it matters not whether you preach the politics I believe in or not, to preach politics at ell is wholly perni ons-for if you agree with me you fill me with malicious and ambitious thoughts, and if you preach against me you inspire me with resentment and animosity. And moreover, in the latter case, you restrain me of my liberty and bring me to church under a false pretense. You impose upon me-I come, in good faith, to the house of worship I have helped to build--I sit down in the pew I have bought and pay rent for-before the altar whose ministers partly subsist by my contributions, to re ceive religious instruction, and foe that purpose alone. For the six days previous ly I have probably disputed with my rieigh hors and friend; on secul.ir and public concerns. I humbly seek to devote the Sabbath to Ged and hie church : but this coveted privilege you would deny to me you bike me at a disadvantage-you, a mere tyro in politics, seek to teach me, ex cathedra, how I shall vote-and it mat tars not, if, is your congregation of five hundred, there shall be but ten who agree with me. We have our right to our opin ions as against you, the majority of your congregation, and all other majorities for, (I quote authority which you and your fellow• partizans will not question) "if all 'mankind, minus one, were of one opinion, `and only one person were of the contrary 'opinion, mankind would be no more jus 'tified in silenciLg that one person Oen he `would be in erilenclng meiikind I fear, reverend sir, that you will not succeed better than persecutors in former POI IT ICAL PREACHING clays in probtic.i.g perfect cenformity ;r1 human 1:1,1 tires of Sulithfibid have been quenched for centuries, and vet the °pint thus were lighted to destroy, still flotilisliaud prevail. If the clergy had been able to procure perfect conform ity in rellgioui matters, they might then have some .-sense for attempting to make men think alike on public affairs. But the first you have not dare, and the second is equally impossible. Already the BROWM.OWS and the BERCI:IEBS are wide ly blamed for producing this unhappy war, and for its grievous continuance. So strong was this, feeling in the late Congress that they refused to exempt the clergy from the draft. Although the SUMNERS and LOVEJOYS, who rule your "one party, " controlled this matter, they refused to free your pro fession from the inconvenience of the en rollment, and of the fatal wheel—thus throwing you upon the generosity and affection of your flocks to !MVO you from the perils of the battle-field. The Democrats seek no aid to their cause from political preaching. They will never agree to a union of Church and State—of politics and religion. They claim that they understand the principles of our Government—they point to the his tory of the last seventy years to prove their attachment to the Constitution and the Union—and fo , all that time their party has stood as a wall of adamant against the waves of fanaticism. They are not asham ed of their political faith. and they cannot exchange it for any other, however sup ported by the improper efforts of clergy men who forget their duty, in their abor tive efforts to force all men into one po litical party. litlAntsox. THE HAILS DY THE ETNA The Inman sir slime; Etna, Capt. Mc- Guigan, which left Liverpool at noon on the 1.1 and Queenstown on the 15th October, arrived at New York late on Monday night. The advices Ey the Etna, via Liverpool, ore one day, and via Q u town two days, later than those by the Hibernia from Galway. The Steam Rawson the Mertrry From the London Star:lkt. 13. The facts concerning the seizure of the steam rams appears to be as follows: On Thursday last a revenue cutter conveyed a Custom House officer into the Great Float, and put him on board of the El 'cousin. On Friday this proceeding was tAlowed by the appearance of a second Custom House officer, who, it is said, put the "broad arrow" on the vessel, and re mained in charge of the ship. About II o'clock on Thursday night the Goshawk, under the command of Lietitsuant Cheek, acting tender to her Majesty's ship Msjes tic, went into the lower basin, 'which is nit yet open for vessels, and remained there on Friday and Saturday. On Saturday morning her Majesty's ship Liverpool dropped from her previous moorings and took a position in front of the entrance to the Morpeth Dock ,with her fires banked and her steam obviously up Ili this condition she lay all day, and th; general opinion connected with her being in this condition a belief that she, as well as the Goshawk, was in readiness to pre vent the apprehended departure of the El 'cousin. So far, however, as present ap pearances warrant the conjecture, this precaution was unnecessary. The suspect ed vessel remains moored alongside the Victoria wharf, and up to Saturday after noon did not appear in a condition fit for sea. During the whole of the early part of Saturday, workmen were busily em ployed in prosecuting the different pro cesses which would fit her for use. S,, tar as could he observed from the quay, ;no admission was allowed on board,) there was no Government officer in charge of the craft,and everything appeared to make progress in the usual way. The ship is evi dently a powerful vessel. She has, or rather preprations are being made for her to have, two cupola turrets, which are far advanced in construction. Her bulwarks are made to fall down outwardly, and 'she has two poi; holes in the stern, disagree ably suggestive of heavy "stern chasers." Her sides are evidently strong, and ar mor-plated but by far her most formi dable-looking character is derived from her sullenly projscting prow. Maximilian and the Mexleati Dep uty *ton. Co:rezpondenee of the London Rowe The latest and, presumably, the most authentic news of the Mexican deputation charged by the "notables" to offer a throne to the Archduke Maximilian, is given by the lifernoriai Diplomati que t o day, in a letter from its editor, the Chet alter Debrauz de Saldapenun. who ac companied the deputation, quorum pars magna full. to Trieste. The Archduke Rata to M. Gutierrrz de Eitrada, the President of the deputation : •'Here is a map of Mexico on which I see exactly indicated the points which have rallied to the vote of your notables. You see that they only comprise the fourth part of Mexico." [Had the Archduke said the twentieth part he would hare been much nearer the mark.] Although the Arch duke is, as of course be would be, fully convinced that the French army will SOOT "deliver" the still recusant provinces, he "owes to himself not to assume the reins of Government so long as civil war con• tinues to desolate the country." "An nounce to me," he says to M. Guiterrez , "that the majority is 'really' acquired to my election, and 1 am your man in four and-twenty hours He is quite ready to respond to the call of Providence, but he cannot clearly see the finger of God in the matter, so long as there is any legitimate doubt about the "spontaniety" of his election. All this is a pretty pregnant condemnation of the proceedings of Mar shal Forey and his notables, according to whom the "rear" and "spontaneous" election has taken place already. Think ing to strengthen his argument, the cheva lier says that the moment the Etnp,•rnr Napoleon heard of the Archduke's answer -to the deputation, he wrote an autograph letter approving of it in "energetic terme." But how does this statement con sist with the assertion, noticed above, that the Emperor had given his visa to the answer beforehand. This second appro bation, upon the chevalier's own showing, was at beet. Lit LI word of supererogation. A further revelation from Trieste is that the del t:Oat:6n has given up the project of seeking an interview with the E:nneror Francis Joe.•ph. The excuse presented for this change of the programme is that the deputation is iu n hurry to get back to Mex co, in order to spread the news of the Archduke's acceptilnce, and thus to hasten the unanimous vote which he re quires. My firm belief is that the Empe— ror of Austria would not receive them, be cause he is not prepared to sanction the Archduke's harem ecarum project. Ido not believe that this young man will ever be Emperor of Mexico Earl Russell's BlawgowrieSpeech and the Polish lZkuestion hi reference to th,. Polish question. the Paris correspondent of the Daily Tele ph says: " There is a very general impression here that after Earl Russell's Scotch speech. the Cabinet of St. James proposed the note based on that speech, and that. Franc- objected to it as too weak—an empty threat, really leading to nothing ; while Austria rejected it as too strong—a measnre sure to bring about a war, which must necessarily fall first on her, as the neighbor of the Czar. This view of the case is supported, too, by the Viennese Press, which, however, asserts that France has now, on reflection, agreed to the note, and that this has put the Imperial Gov ernment of Vienna in such a dilemma that to escape it a note has been sent to St. James' to know what England is pre pared to do if Austria's fears of war are realized. "On the reply of Earl Russell to this document," says Lfz Boersenhal2e, "depends the final determination of Ana tria on the Polish question." =ICII We have received tiles of Richmond papers to Saturday last, the 24th inst., from which we take the following ex— tracts: Lee's Last Failure From the Richmond Examiner, Oct. 22 It is scarcely time to form a correct esti mate of the late events on the Rapidan and the Rappahannock. No full account of the facts, or explanation of the causes which led to the failure, has yet been re ceived -from a Confederate source. The enemy's accounts are equally minute and exultant, and they are so far confirmed by the abbreviated and desicated telegrams sent under "military censorship," that we are only justified in describing the late affair as an attempt by Lee to interpose a corps of his army between a large portion of Meade's force at Culpepper and Wash ington. If he had have succeeded, the result would have permanently cured the Army of the Potomac of its chronic die• ease, the Prurigo Richmondiensis, or Itch for Richmond. Unfortunately the enemy became cognizant of the plan at the mo ment of its execution, and retreated with sufficient deliberation to destroy all their stores that they did not carry. -off to the fortifications of Centreville. It is impos sible to follow them, for the country is a desert in which our army could not live. e bile the enemy would be at the door of his magazines in Washington. One fight—apparently between a divi Rion of the Confederate army and a larger body of the enemy—occurred during 'the movement, in which we lost 450 prisoners, 5 pieces of cannon, and were generally worsted Why such a fight occurred can not now be said. It can scarcely have been the intention of Leo to pit one divi• sion against two army carps. At present the collision bears the appearance of an ambuscade, or of a blunder, which was not redeemed by energy or conduct There are Generals who have the gift of inspiring their troops with their own gal lantry, and there are Generals who have not that gift. It would appear that Lewis burgh, Gettyeburgh, and Brietoe Station are illustrations of this truth. In the meantime, the loss at that place was far more than cpunterbalanced by successes elsewhere. Against Meade's 450 prisoners, Lee has placed 1,200 ; and the campaign in Northern Virginia has closed for the Beason nearly at the spot where it began two years ago, with the enemy in retreat, a❑d our own army victorious, though baffled. The Southwest and the War Fr,an the Chattanooga F.ebel. Who shall succeed Gen. Bragg? Shall it be Longstreet ? Or Joe Johnston ? Or shall we see the great Lee himself. with all his glory, out in the West? It is one of the prettiest of themes ; for whiiat it ensures a riddance of one leader, as un fortunate as he is unpopular, it possesses all the charm of novelty, and of fresh hope, interest and courage. For we cot ica tots, like the French, are a volatile p and come to rapid conclusions. It :mood to decapitate a General as iickly nus- a Yankee's throat, when hr does not please us ; and seeing that Gen. Bragg has had a fair trial and along test, and chat, despite his one victory at Chick aiv,auga, he tails to please us, it is gene?. - ally concedPd that he will go the way of all flesh, ar.i oaks way for corns one likely to do hi ti.er. It may be, alas, that we will yet s air a dirge of lament over Braxton Bragg. Who knows? The ways of war, as of Providence, are iii• scrutable. Yet, meanwhile—for sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof—oho shall be his successor" It is not whether Bragg is to be or not to be. It is : Who takes his place f That's the question. A Daniel has at last come to judgment, and hie wits are already on the lookout peak. Thv Situation In Tennemffe Fr 'Ls he Chlrlestsn C Mercury, Oct. . On the 20th of September Gen. Brapg, defeated Rosecratis at Chickamauga tiad forced his grand army back to Chattanco ga, with heavy losses, after a desperate battle. I wenty-three days have elapsed, and the situation, to the uistant observer, is apparently but little chanced, except in the preparations afoot. Rosecrans has strongly fortified his position, and Bragg, occupying the surrounding country, hems him in on the South side of the Tennessee river, while he has free communication with the North aide by pontoon bridges and boats. We know not what he has been doing to cut off Gen. Rosecrans' communications with Nashville and his base of supplies. We know not whether any steps have been taken to meet, and crush in detail, the reinforcements for which the Yankee General is probably waiting. It is likely, we judge, that nei ther of those objects has, thus far, been attempted on any 'wale or with any great prospect of success. The capture of a large wagon train, recently reported, is very good as far as it goes, but will hardly change the aspect of affairs. Theprom.se held out of a tremendous concentric can nonade upon the enemy's position is not hopsfulof great results. To 118 here, who are cognizant of the enemy's power in ar tillery, the difficultiss of keeping up such afire for any length of time, and the coin parative insignificance of the effects upon earthwork defences, such as protect the enemy at Chattanooga, expectation is faint. Nor to our view is there a reason able probability of General Lee's drawing back again to Virginia and Maryland the reinforcements going to Rosecrans by an advance upon Meade's army. That ex periment has already been tried. The grand forward movement to Gettysburg was made to weaken Grant and frustrate the enemy's campaign 431 Mississippi. It failed of its effect on Western affaira. So we fear another advance would turn out at this juncture. According to our crude and imperfect apprehensions, Tennessee is now the great central point of this war, and every of fort should be made to give streug;l r.nd success to our forces al that point Fail ure there will be terribly d Would not the speedy reinforcei.. of Bragg's army from Lee's and John-LA:l's and Hardee's corps enable him to cross the Tennessee and strike crushing blows at the collecting forces of the enemy, and upon Roeecrans himself ? Tennessee once fairly delivered, should we not have passed the c isis of the war? These sug gestions are thrown out to our readers for what they may be worth. We do not pro fess to know what is going on. We are glad President Davis has gone to Ten riPssee, and trust that good results for the West will cocas out of the consultations, in sides anything connected with Generals Polk and Eiludman. Matters are crit;cal, a , :d wisdom is needed. Alexander H. Stephens. From the Columbia (Ga.) Enuu;rer Among all of the illustrious statesmen that the Empire State of the confederacy has claimed and does claim as hers, none has been honored by the world more for his virtue, or respected, perhaps, as much for his practical wisdom as the present Vice President of this confederacy. He stands justly and deservedly in the frent rank of living statesmen. The accuracy with which he has again and again fore told the occurrence of important events justifies the assertion that we have heard made very frequently about him, to wit:— That he is "the wisest man living.'' When the provisional government wee first organized at Montgomery, Mr. Ste phens suggested the immediate invest ment of twenty five million dollars in ;rot. clad war steamers to keep open our ports; and the indifference with which that saga thous counsel was treated has coat and will coat our Government two billion five hundred millions of dollars. Had the cotton been sent to Europe then, as it might have been sent, and those war steamers been brought here, as they might have been brough, our ports never would have been closed, recognition would have it 'CD !ziFureti, ;Igo. i.pecu'ation ( foreign goods would save fallen stillborn to the. earth, sod ex:onion upon home products would have never fastened its deadly fangs upon the vitals of the land. .Cotton would have then been able to wear the crown belonging to its royal state, and would have been king indeed, while Con federate scrip would have continued to stand to this hcur where it stood then and the voice of distress would have been nowhere heard on Confederate soil, save the voice of that distress with which the hearths of our homes are overwhelmed when bitter tidings are flashed upon them from distant fields of strife. Shall Richmond be Starved. From the Richmond Examiner, Oct, 21. Upon all this question the people of this city will be called on to vote next Thurs day. The Maximum or "Extortion" bill, ac it is called, is no new thing. All his tury is against it. It was put in force here, under the reign of martial law, a few months ago, and such was the effect in stopping supplies that this city was nearly starved out. If this bill be passed we shall have „the same thing over again with this difference. In the former case the officials who framed this absurd and tyrannical edict remained is Richmond and shared the fate of the inhabitants. The consequence was that the measure was speedily repealed. In this case ' how ever, the members of the Legislature, after passing a bill to starve the city, will run off to their homes in the country, and with full bellies, will read the appetising accounts of the sufferings of their victims in the city. They will not come together again for two or three months. They will not be in a hurry to leave plenty in the country for starvation in Richmond. There will be no power iu the meantime to repeal the law. The people will have to suffer. Children will cry for bread, and cry in vain. Let all who want bread and meat for themselves and their families this winter come to the .polls on Thursday and vote against the Maximum or Extor tion Bill to starve Richmond. It they neglect to vote, and thus allow this bill to pass, they will bowl for food when it is too late to apply a remedy. us PRESERVE YOUR CIDER.
