In a long silver line,

When the children of Israel were car
ried away captive from Judah to Baby.
lon, Nebuchadnezzar, the king, com
manded one of his chief officers to select
a few of the finest and most intelligent
young men from among the Jewish cap
tives to stand in his presence, and to
live in his palace, where they might be
taught in the language and learning of
the Chaldeans. The king also appoint
ed a certain kind of food and drink, with
which these young men were to be fed
and nourished for three years, at the
end of which they were to appear in his
presence. Among other things appoint
ed there was a certain amount of
"Wine," which the officer, having charge
of these young men, was to give to them
daily. The precise number of young
men thus selected is not given. All we
know is that among them were Daniel,
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.
But when their daily provision was set
before them, we are told that Daniel and
his three companions resolved in their
hearts that they would not defile them
selves with the portion of the king's al
lowance, nor with the wine that
.was
offered unto them ; hence they begged
of the officer that they might be ex
cused from their regular allowance, and
that among other things water should
be given to them, instead of wine. The
officer, however, was unwilling at first
to comply with this request, for he was
afraid to disobey the king's order, and
hence he said unto Daniel : " I fear my
lord, the king, who both appointed your
meat and your drink ; for why should
he see your faces worse liking than the
children which era of your sort? then
shall ye make me endanger my head to
the king." It seems that the officer was
fearful that if Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach
and Abednego would not drink the wine
appointed, they woad fall away in flesh
and lose their beauty and thus look
worse than the rest; and then should
the king inquire into the cause be would
find out that his orders were disobeyed,
and of course off would go the officer's
bead. But Daniel in order to convince
him tips there was ;to reason for snob
fear, Tilde the following proposition

ten days ; and let diem giielus Pulse to
eats-and water to drink. Then let our .
countenances be looked' •before
thee, and the countenances of the- chil
dren that eat of the portion , of the king's
meat; and as thoti seat, 'deal thth•tby '
servants." - This propositiOn oemdd do
reasonable to the.ollicer that heiranted
the request, and we are told.: "So he
consented to them in this matter, and
proved them ten days. And at the end
of ten days their countenances appeared
fairer and fatter in flesh than all the
children which did eat the portion of the
king's meat." This of course convinced
the officer, and from that hour he gave
them "water" instead of " wine."
Mark, Daniel and his three compan
ions. .
were no " wine-bibbera " but "cold
water men." T-hsy did not believe that
"Alchohol." would contribute anything
to their strength or beauty. Therwent
in for the pure sparkling water, God's
only beverage, which is designed for all
men. -They drank water, and nothing
but water, and yet we are told they were.
"fairer and fatter in flesh" than all the
rest who drank the king's wine.
There is a great deal said about the
beneficial influences that liquor has
upon the body; but all such claims are
incompatible with the Bearchings of
Scriitture. and contrary to daily experi
ence and universal observation. Some ,
toll us that liquor is as good as food, or
that it strengthens and nourishes the
body.; but it does tto such thing, for ac
cording to the most scientific investiga
tion of medical men, it is properly
speaking no food at all, for it neither
igives strength, no; repairs waste. B.ome
tell as that it will sustain men ender
.bodily_ labors or mental—exertions, - and
enable them to endure intense heat or
severe cold ; but all such assertions are
false, for the fact is liquor has precisely
tho contrary effect, that is it wastes the
powers of body and mind, and thus dis
ables men to endure great physical ex
ertion or mental activity. Others tell
us that liquor has a tendency to make
people fair, and healthy, and rosy-cheek
ed. Bat this too is false. The fact is,
those who do not touch or taste liquor
are healthier and better looking than
those who sip and tipple at it. What
further proof of this do we need than
the narrative above in relation to Daniel
and his three companions. They did
not drink a drop of wine, or liquor, while
the rest were drinking it daily; and yet
we are distinctly told that " their coun
tenances appeared fairer and fatter in
flesh " than all the children which drank
the portion of the king's allowance.
Let .me say then in conclusion, if you
want your nose as red as fire, and your
cheeks puffed and bloated, and your
eyes blood-shot and swelled up, and your
whole body a mass of putrid flesh until
you look more like a fiend than a human
being-1 say, if you want that, then just
drink wine, and gin, and brandy, and
whiskey, and lager beer, or another pois
onous stuff you can get. But if you
want to be happy, and cheerful, and
healthy, and contented, and rosy-cheek
ed, and brtibt-eyed—then do as Daniel
and his three companions—that is leave
liquor alone and stick to the pure, cold,
sparkling water, for that is the drink
furnished by One wiser than we are.
May God help us to be "cold water"

GENERAL SHERMAN V. 9. BRIGHAM You &o.
—A few weeks ago an interesting and
characteristic correspondencetook place
between Gen. Sherman and Brigham
Young, the hend of the Mormon saints.
The General opened with the following
graph dispatch, dated April 10th:
" To BRIGHAM YOUNG—Sir : A tele
gram comes to me from responsible offi
cers that four men styled "Gentile"
have been murdered by Mormons, and
that there is an apprehension of farther
danger *this class. By Gentiles, I tin

to all citizens regardless of religions

Must be punished, and if your people re

jpy equal rights within the limits of our
national domain. I know little or noth
ing of the cause of local trouble in Utah ;
but it is well for you to know that our
country is now full of tried and. expeiri
sauced soldiers, who would be-pleased-at
a fair opportunity to avenge any wrongs
you may commit against any of our citi
zens, even in that remote region. I will
soon'have regular troops in- Utah, and
.on the road leading there, when I hope
ire shall receive reports on which to
lase accurate opinions .; and Isend you
this message not as a threat, but -as a
caution that a sensible man should heed.
;W. T. SHERMAN,
Maj. Gen. Commanding Department
Young replies on the 12th, not in his
usual tone of defiance against all United
, Staths officers, but apparently desirous
ipfaioiding any further difficulty. He
says, no assassinations have occurred,
except the killing of Mr. Brassfield, who
went there "and seduced a Mormon's
wife," but that neither he (Young) nor
the community at large knew anything
about it. This assertion is doubtful; but
Young concludes with another doubtful
statement as follows :
"Citizens who are not of our faith do
not suffer from intimidation here. In
no other community could men pursue ,
the course many do here without expe
riencing the vengeance of a vigilance
committee. The outrageous slanders
they have circulated against us would
have provoked such an outbreak else
where. There are a few speculators'
here who are anxious to make it appear
that American citizens' lives are in dan
ger through religious fanaticism, hoping
thereby to have troops sent here to make
money out of contracts. Gentiles' lives
are as safe here as Mormons, and acts
of violence. occur more rarely in this pity
than any other of its size in any of the
new States or . Territories.
PLAYING CARDS.—Cards were invent
ed in 1391 by Jacquemin Grungenmonr,
to amuse Icing Henry VI., of France,
who at that time was mad, The ace
was made the best card in the pack,
being derived from the French word
"Argent," signifying money, and to
show that a king could not get along
without it, as a menial card backed by
the ace would triumph over a king.
The kings were called David, Alexander,
Caesar and Charlemagne; the queens
were named Argine, Rachael, Palles and
Judith ; the varlets or knaves represen
ted the squires to the kings, and were
named Launcelot, Ogier, Renard and
Hector; the tens, nines, &e., represent
ed the foot soldiers. The ace of clubs
was so named and formed to rOpresent
a clover leaf and to signify to the king
that a good general would always en
camp his army where pasturage was
plenty. The ace of spades represented
the halberts earried by the foot soldiers ;
the ace of diamonds represented the
heads of the arrows need by the cross
bowmen, and the ace of hearts " repro"-
seated the courage of the knights and
soldiers.
sr An auctioneer, not very well read
in books, especially religious books, was
recently selling a library at auction.

A PARDONED COPPERHEAD:—It seems
that one L. P. Milligan, one of Yellen

onable practices durieg the -war, and
recently pardoned, has received a wel
come from some men of like minds with
himself, at °redline, in Ohio ; and read
a written speech, of which the following
passage is reporteff:
_ -"Among the greatest sinners against
God's righteous will were Lincoln,
Brough and Morton, and though he was
not prone to believe in special provi
deuces, their fate was otherwise unac
countable. One had been summoned- to
the bar of retributive justice with his
sine unrepented of. Another, covered
all over with the mildew of debauchery,
and wrapped in exhalations from which
buzzards would turn their offended nos
es, carried to the grave the impress of
infamy, while there yet remains one of
the Godless trio •, but the plague is on
its westward march, his limbs are smote
with the blood of crime, and tremble
under their load of corruption. Still
he prayed that the Governor might live
long enough to realize in this world, ra
ther than in the next, that God is just.
He renewed hie adhesion to the Demo
cratic party, and exhorted his hearers
to maintain the organization of the par
ty,, though cowardly men may have
shrunk from the boldness of its truth,
and attempted to corrupt its ritual and
constitution."
We suppose this fellow was pardoned
by President JoWien on the plea of in
sanity or, was it, because such men as
this Milligan and Vallawdigham must
inevitably rain their,party, if they are
only kept out of jail ?—New York Post.
A STRANGE STORY FROM ORIO.—A
most curious instance of Conflicting tee
timoney in the case of murder recently
occurred in Ohio. On March-24th, one
Ira B. Wheeler, of North Pepin, in that
State, suddenly disappeared,_and it was
generally supposed that he had been
accidentally drowned in the waters of
the Chippewa. A few days ago; howev
er, his body was found near the place
where the accident is supposed to have
occurred, the head marked by a deep
gash across the scalp, and a severe
wound over the left eye.
Suspicion at once rested on James
Carter, who had originally made the
statement that Wheeler broke through
the ice and so died. The whole village
was excited. Carter was subjected to a
sharp inquisition, when most unexpect
edly the wife of Wheeler and the accus
ed man both confessed to the crime, each
charging the other with dealing the fatal
blow. The Durand (Ohio) Times says
The wife's story is, that Wheeler and
Carter, getting into an altercation about
going to a neighbor's to play a game of
whist, Carter dared Wheeler out of
doors to fight; whereupon the latter fol
lowed Carter out, when Carter struck
him over the head with a gun barrel,
which brought him:to the ground, imme
diately causing his death.
Carter, on the other hand, asserts that .
Wheeler was driving tacks into his boots
when his wife happening to pass by upset
the paper of tacks upon the floor. A
scuffle ensued, at first in play, afterwards
in anger. Mrs. Wheeler finally snatch
ed up a hatchet, and struck her husband
a blow on the head, which felled him to
the floor. Carter had been a bystander
in the struggle, and now came forward,
told the wife not to be alarmed, and pro
ceeded to carry the corpse to the river,
and thrust it through the ice. Be then
invented an explanation of his d isappear
ann.

How fragrant the air is with the
perfumes from a thousand exotic plants,
and all nature seems clad in her holiday
attire. Yet misery is still in our midst.
The roses may bloom, and nature put
on her garlands of leakind bud and flow

Dyspepsia, the sure forerunner of death,
and the companion of a miserable life,
claims him as a subject. Do not wait
then, dear reader, till its ravages lay you
low in death, for nature has likewise
found an antidote—compounded of her
roots and barks—and prepared Coe's
Dyspepsia Cure. It will immediately
cure the worst cases of Dyspepsia in
existence. The'proprietors warrant it
