Tobacco fOr ,
The article_which follows,. on the use _of _tobacco
by clergymen, is couched in. 'language both plain
and forcible. It is from. a paper (the New To)*
Evangelist) yfiicli is' ably devoted to the cause of
religion and sound 'morality, an Which cannot bp
supposed to speak otherwise than ' te
rra spirit of kind
ness and brotherly love to all.c,hristianlninisters.
there will be found, we fear few readerik,who -can.;
not testify to the neeessity of ilmstricturei . en Ute
tobacco , practices of those to whom we natuirally
,lookup ns exemplari for avoiding indulgence in all
factitious, appetites. '
Not long ago fwas• spending an evening with a
family which is known to a large circle of ministers.
as the abode 'of liberal hospitality, of intelligence,
anil of piety.. In the Course of the conversation, an.
inquiry arose effigernh3g a minister of greatiespec
tability and worth, whether lie was in .the habit of
• ______
using tobacco. :Somc said they were sure he did not
Use it;• others, that if.he did, he must bd . remarkably
•cai•eful,.to- keepit so thoroughly 6oticealc•(), Sc. At

Ihir.c isc,
neatest mid most careful tolmeeoehewersin the
country; so much so that many, even of.his Mtrnbie
acquaintances, are ignorant that this is his character.
Seeing it in such a man,lfifirreised my mind deeply
with the evils.of the practice, and led to the inquiry;
whether nothing could be done for its removal. I
saw that the first thing must be, to expose it. " - -
That the habit Of"nsing tobacco is injurious to
health, 1 presume no if emperate man, ivho has looked
at the subject, will venture to deny. That it lessens
the useful energy of the mind, and blunts Abe reli
gious feelings, by producing a dreamy,'-self-satisfied,
indolcotkuite, is equally unquestionable:. That.the
appetite for it is' Minatoral and diseased; and that
this apNite, or the uneasiness attending upon pri
atio, is the real reason why people, otherwise con- .
sc'tentious and decent, continue the asc of tobacco, is
an acknowledged froth. That ministers need all the
healthOf body, and all the energy 0(11 - kind, that tiny
can have, at the present day, every pious preacher
deeply leek'. siniple act Of Vtiliti n all .
that is - riNnisite to break oil' from the habit is self=
evident to all. •
I shall now take-the liberty which the Gospel
only_permits,.but_requiro; of -sptiiking my mind en
this subject to my brethren very plainly indeed. I
do not wish to Wound their l'eelings; and if Lsucceed
in keeping their consciences With me, theiV feelings
will be disturbed only as
,tifey resist conscience; and
if they do that,l am not to blai . ne.
Last spring,the religions papers of New York and
Philadelphia, speaking of the necessary preparations
ror'a veritable enjoyment of the anniversaries, point
ed out the negligent habits of sonieministers in their
n'se of tobacco, as mieof the hinderances
feeling on 4 llpse occasions. S9Me .woutuled birds'
