In mnuv lnstnnces. their sons am husbands had become victims of n more dreadful slavery than that from which they had fought to deliver tho blacks; that while unon the Held of battle they struck the manacles from the slaves of tho South, they had forged fetters of base nppelttes and vicious habits upon them selves. How many men of character and of promise returned from the war but the merest wreck of their former selves eternity only can reveal. The government canteen Is reponlhlo lor n train of evils most nppnlllng to contemplate The government grog which wns supplied during tho war hns killed more men thnu were ever killed by rebel bullets. Tho nmietites there created and strengthened has had much to do In fastening the curse of rum upon us nnd In producing the train of evils thnt follow in its wake. I do nut charge that all soldiers were thus debauched. The honorable exceptions were numerous. Otir own Chaplaiu AIc- Cabe can tell of n bright side to life even in Llbby prison, nnd of the songs of praise to God ami the shouts of victory over sin thnt rent tho air of its har rowing conllnes. Hut thee were the exception and not tho rule. Hut I must touch upon still another thlni: in passing though it is a dangerous thing to deal witli in such n presence ns tills on nccount oi tne nnniuty to misun derstanding nnd misrenresentniinn ; that is the fraud and dishonesty that have been engendered uy our pension legislation. Kvery right-minded mannmong us who Iihs anv sense of appreciation of the sacri llces and perils of the soldier, of tho War, and n Bpark of gratitude for the priceless heritage they bought witli their blood, must feel n proud sense of satisfaction at the generous provision mnde for them bv tho iroierument. ihe wili not bo senred by the cry of Half a million dollnrs u dnv for pen slons ' iirovlde.l thev can leel assured tnu tne nionev really noes to uie wormy auu needy heroes of tho nation's bnttles, or to their legitimate denendnnts. Hut the trouble is n lnrge proportion does not go to them. One who is in n position to know whereof he nllirnis, writes in the Forum. June. 1NS3. pago 44'.", "'mere are now known to be tuousands of imperson ators of bravo men under whose names thev hnvo skulked; perjurers who hav magnilled or forged bodily ailments, or who have attributed to tne service inmrlc or diseases known to have been received or contracted elsewhere; relicts who never knew the soldiers in whoso name thev ask relief ; mistresses who never dared take the name of their paramours until they were dead ; pension junipers of both sexes who are drawing two, turee or moro pen sions at once under different names, and lastly, and in increasing numbers, widows who were born nfter tho wur." Heie we flud-n mon in tho government service drawing a snlnry ot fiiauu a year ami n DpiiHinn of 84 per month, while his neigh bor who Is workiug on the railroad for nluetv cents n dny nnd who sustnined np parentiy ns mucu injury in tne wnr gets n pension of $3 per month. Yonder Is n county Judge drawing n Snlnry of ?4000 per year nnu a pension oi too per nioimi, and here Is a mule driver on your dirt banks, as badly lniured in tuo war, wn makes 20 ner month and drnws n pen sion of fl n month. Here are tho chief friction poluts In our pension laws evils which are perhaps Inevitable-but evils against which 1 declaim, nnd which I mention cliielly bei-i.i; e any li ir state ment of tho moral cum. oi tne wur must include frauds upon the government and wroiiL's unon Its patriots wiucn are un surpassed in nil tne annuls oi covetou Crimea. Owar: thou cruel, hideous, blighting blasting, damning mouster, would God that with pencil dinned in the hottomle pit of hell I could paint the horrid face to black nnd devilish, so llemlish and so hateful tliat mortal man could nevermore see n single redeeming ieaturo m uie b oodv countenance. Hut I should fnil to dischnrce the duty of the piesenr hour did 1 not refer to the perils whicli threnten us now, and thus nolnt out the duties imposed upon, us by tlie I'lnriniiH nence which was purchased by tho owful strife and the blessed life mat came to us turougu savage ueaiii.

Like children skinning on the cruter of n slumbering volcano, natioua are often oblivious ot tneir pern until it mirsis in all Its furv. Like the ostrich, they often hide their hend in the snnd nnd suppose there Is no danger nut tnere it is. Notwithstanding our bonsted liberty w are to-day a nation sycophnnts, are prosti tuting the sacred name of patriotism to their own selfish ends. Patting the Union soldier with one hand and the rebel soidier with the other, and without a care either for them or our institutions, tuey crv llrst "irood Lord" nnd then "good devil." Moral principle unci public opinion lire made the merest hobby horte upon which to ride ton place at thepubll crib. Political Nebuchndnezzars set ui: not their golden, but their brazen images, and nt tne sounu oi tne music tne peopi not only fnll down and worship, but go to tho polls nnd elect them. The result is wo llnd most of our public olllces tilled wuu persons of alien sympatny n not nllen birth, nnd n tide of immigration overcrowding our labor mnrket and su persedlmr our worklugnieu until they cry for bread. Capital has been protected nnd lnbor exposed. Legislation has put tnrllf ou coal to keen tin its price and then brought men from the ends of the earth to mine It In order to cut your wnges and tie your nnuus. Tiiey uuve mprigageu the Intelligence of tho future by crowding ignorant loreigners upon us wnuoutmiiK lug adequate provision f or tbelr education Now York and Pennsylvania states that contain and receive a larger proportion of foreigners than any states In the Union Increased their population during the past decade fourteen times us much their public school enrolment. I have no sympathy with Indiscriminate denuncia tion ot immigration, nor do 1 share tin fears f renuently expressed ns to the moral effects ot the newer elements we havi been lately reoelvlng. The fact Is. accord log to our prison statistics, that the slnvlc races among us show the cleanest tun of moral nenitn, so inr as really seri ous crimes are concerned, of unv foreign ers among us. The most criminal, Italians excepted, are to be found among those who have been coming from the first without hindrance or criticism. The thing to be deplored Is the multiplication of foreigners without an honest effort to solve the problems their presence presents. A crying need of the age Is for compulsory education in our public schools whioh we should have had long ago but for political hucksters. In the next place let me sny thnt we nre slaves to nu Infernal trulllc that has de stroyed more of money, men nnd char ncter thnn "wnr, pestilence nnd fnmlno ' combined. Wo used to bonst of a government 1 of the people, by the people nnd for tho people" nor wns our uoasting vain, nut nlns, It hns been transformed Into a gov ernment of tho saloon, by the snloon nnd lor tne snioon. ao one enn question tnnt the beer keg Is the mightiest fnctor lu our political life thnt It receives more con slderntlon In our legislative halls nnd mnuy of our courts of Justice thnn nil the crosses, churdies, bibles, homes, widows and orphnns of the lnud put to gether. There is not a nation on enrth mat n ns demonstrated its utter incapacity to denl with tho rum traffic, nnd to en forco its Inws ngninst this legalized mur der, so thoroughly and so clearly ns our own. wmi a sentiment on tuis question ndvnnce of tho world we have, tiro nortloiiately, the least to show for It. While a few men nre doubtless better tbnn their business, it Is still true on the whole thnt the christian temperance ele ment lies prostrate, nt the feet of n law less fraternity of drunkard-makers. God nnd conscience have no chnnce when saloon keepers nnd beer glnsses come into competition. Africnn slnvery was n messing compared witli tue slnvery oi rlTiv M'linf.

Not so with sinverv to rum. This ruius both master and wave alike, nnd blasts and minis overytnlng It touches. It is the nemy of earth and the friend of hell. Itstnends moral pestilence nbrOnd nnd the spirit of rebellion nrouud; ltdetbrones reason ami affection within and destroys hope nnd heaven beyond. Yet some of the worst loes of slavery in the South nre among the best friends of tho worse sinverv of rum. How sad to see so many who once, regardless of Inmlly Interests, social ties, religious preferences nnd no- ltlcal nlllllntlous. forgot all but tbelr country's peril, now selling every precious Interest lor the sake of party polls. Hut snddest of nil Is to find thnt mostof those engage 1 In the dreadful traffic nre mem bers ot some brnucn of tuo curtstian hurch and nre "crucifying their Lord fresh nnd putting Him to nn open Bhnmo."
