And that is total abstinence. Touch not, taste not, handle not. Thousands of men who thought themselves proof against the power of strong drink have been swept away by its unsuspected power, become sots and filled drunkard's graves. Intemperance does not, only strike at the poor and unlearned, but its targets have been men of splendid endowments, by large ex- perieneies, of strong wills and splendid culture. The curse of drink has conte upon them like a blight, ruining body and soul. The intoxicating cup is no re- spector of persons. Who are you that you faaie;y that there is no danger in modern drinking? You may know of neighborhoods that are well nigh blasted by the curse. It takes only a few years to work a transformation. It may have had its beginning in the cider barrel. In most cases the moral sentiment is too low. It is a good thing to have a high principle and then stand for it. "We will drink no wine" is a part of a very old temperance pledge, and it is refreshing to see how these Recbabits adhered to it They had. adopted the law of tem- perance and were not to be tempt- ed to break it, A than niay never become a drunkard and yet impair intellect - nal keeness by the habit of moderate drinking. Intoxicants in any form are sure to leave their evil effects on body and mind. Every man owes the world a good example, no drunkard can give this, no moderate drinker can give this.. No frequenter of drink- ing resorts can do it. Even though you might escape the tv'orot evils, others following you would . fall. No one can seperate thetnself from the influence you have on some one else. A saloon can no more be run without boys than a saw .hill cava without logia. The only question is, whose boys? A ruin seller called upon a local board to get a motto for his new sign -board which he was getting painted. He wanted sonuathing funny, and the poet gave utterance to the following :— Rtun and whiskey, ale and beer ; • Beggars trade and mended hero, When nothing's left to pay the scores I'll take and kick hint out the door. Press iipt. ZURICf'i LOC ALS CONTINUED, CoillrnunIon and quarterly ser vi ces will be bold in the Ghtirelh of the 1 vangelioal Association, on. Sun- day morning, commencing at,t 10 o'clock. Both the English and Ger- man ;speaaking people are cordially invited to be present, as the'service will be conducted in bothiaanguages In the evening the services •wil.l be in English, as usual. Mr. Smith, editor of the Weekly Sun, of Toronto, gave Txn HERALD a short call yesterday morning. The genial. Editor' of this great farm paper is a hustler in the farm- ers interest and is almost contin- rally travelling through the coun- try addressing farmers' meetings. We have .made special arrange- ments to club TEE HERALD •land Weekly Sun for the balance of the year, for only 75 cents. Those who are already subscribers to our paper can secure the Sun to the end of the year for 35 cents, The services of the several Churches in the village, have been almost always conducted in the German language. About four or five years ago, however, the church of the Evangelical Association made a departure from this custom and introduced an English service in the evening,' and as far aas vie can learn, are satisfied with the result, as most of the strangers and ' visi- tors generally find their *ay to that place pf worship, at least those unable to speak the German tongue Since the advent of Father •Aloisius to this perish, a few weeks ago, the some is now the practice at St. Bon- ifuce, so that English speaking peo- ple have now the privilege of at- tending divine worship at either of these churches once a 'day, and understanding What is being taught if they desire to do so. Availing himself of this privilege, our re- porter was present at,the Lnglish speaking service, on Sabbath, and was pleased at the interior Appear- ance of the edifice, the democratic, yet reverential air pervading the people; the heartiness: of the con- gregational singing, and the *rapt attention given the speaker, Rev. Mr. Yeager, the pastor. 'The ser- vice was free from that stiffness, so oharacteritie of city churches, the praise -part being entered into by the congregation as a whole, and no solos or voluntaries given to abash, or restrain, any of the participants who might feel that their 'voices were not as cultured as this class of singers. The sermon, too, was a model which might well be imitat- ed by others of the cloth. It was short, without being unnecessarily so, any was'deltvered in an earnest and eloquent manner, every sen- tence being brief,' clear cut, and the emphasis in their proper places. The Rev. gentleman is possessed of a fine physique, a somewhat in•usi= eat voice, and has just :Magnetic influence enough to centre the eyes of the whole congregation upon himself and to hold thein there throughout the whole of the ,dis- course, while he has sufficient elo- cutionary ability to brink out the true meaning and make his reacting agreeable and easily under stood.— T'be text was taken from portions of the 8th. and 10th chapters of St Luke, the 35 and 39 verses, the first desibing the love. trust .end eenfi- dence of the former demoniac, after Jesus had cast out the devils, whom he permitted to enter into the swine ; and the latter to Mary, who is described as having chosen the better part, which would not be taken away from her, the words being : " Sat at Jusus' feet.",The speaker proceeded to show thito b the proper position of the'student ; it recognised .the .love entertained for the teacher and the confidence actuating the persons occupying this lowly position ; besides it was a place of nearness and safety, for so long as Hien and women were sat- isfied to be in such close proximity to the Saviour, there was little fear of any influence drawing thein away from that benign presence., It is.difult for teachers to impart knowledge to those who have not the mental capacity to receive it, -- In the case of this teacher he had the power not only -to impart, but also to create the brain to receive it, for in the case of the manioc, whom all men were afraid of, they now found clothed, and in his right mind, and he knew who was his best friend and was grateful accord ing, as was also the case of Mary who, ' after quietly seeking, •ha. found her hearts' desire, and wa saatisf atd• `.Chis W4s no ordinary teacher to scare by sternness and tun unsympathetic demeanor but on the contrary' tender, solicitous, and en- couraging. Then, sitting at his feet, •\vas a place of instruction, and it shows they desired to learn more bf Him who had,broatght them such such joy and happiness, and this would always be the ease' with his true disciples. Men had before had. able teachers ; those who sat at the feet of Elisha were proud to ac- knowledge the fact, and it is said after his translation, the great love these men bore hills caused him to be sought for in many plapes, and tlijah, upon whom his mantle full, was hardly less conspicuous among the men of. his time, as a teacher and instructor. Moses and Abram, too, were mighty. iii wisdom, and bad their student followers, in their days and generations,. while it IA 011 record Oat Szi,lil, (after, .wards called Paatil,) was ,proud ii „to acknowledge that. had bean as student ot, and had ra sat at the feet" of Geuialiel, then Whom there where none more' learned, and, to whom, camp for instruction the sons of the greatest mon of his time, Solouuui was aalso a an of wisdom --a great tea.clierman----and ` called. aground hinn ina],ny stridents; his fame going abroad to .such' an ex- tent as to draw one of the iieathon queens to his court, and , to satisfy her (by his, replies to her mtultbers queries) so fully and ooinpletely as to cause her reason, for the moment, to be dethroned. (Presttnaaably the queen of Sheba.). These were all mighty men of wisdom and learn- ing, yet all fell far short of the teacher of the text, watt who is as mighty and willing now, as then, if sought for,in spirit and in tt'uth. In Him is ALL knowledge, and Zits word the true guide ; He teaches by example, giving line upon line, and precept upon precept. Then He is efficient, and'all sufficient. ' 'His life was a model worth the imitation of the least to the greatest ; so perfeca was his life and so beautiful, theft legend says that When he overcame death and rose from the grave his course to the garden of Gethsemine could be traced by the beautiful flowers which sprang forth where • ever his feet. touched the earth.— This, of course," is not true,-: 'but it is a beautiful tribute to his spot- lessness and purity. - Stifficient for all: So satisfied was Pattl on this point, that he says " I count call things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesuss." lin concluding, the speaker asked those present if they too were sitting at .Jesus feet, and if not to' hasten to do so, for in Him was life, hope, joy and confidence. The Teachers' Convention. The Teachers' Convention was held in Exeter on Thursday and Friday of last week. Mr. Gowans in the chair and some- 80 members present. .A cordial reception was given the Association by a -number of trustees of that town, who were delegated for the purpose. After the striking of committees, Inspec for Toni discussed the subject of spelling in junior classes, giving several illustrations of his methods. Nur. Morrish that of music in the Public Schools ; Mr. H. A. Ander son, public school leaving classes and examinations ; Mr. Howard "how shall we increase the efflcien cy of our teachers institutes" and Mr. Geo. Ma vson 'Patriotism in the; Public Schools." All these questions being joined in by others and further discussed. In the evening an entertainment was given in the Oddfellows Hall, at which ice-cream, cake and lem- onade were served and a good pro- gramme gone through, and able addresses listened to from the Chairman of the Convention and inspector Toni. On the second day the conven-: tion dealt with many other matters of interest to the profession, passed 'several resolutions, elected officers for the ensuing year and wound up harmonously one of the most successful conventions, it is said, ever held in the country, singing by classes, of children being fea- tures. We regret that the l:`znited space at our disposal prevents us from publishing the very full and excellent report sent us by the Secy, HENSALL. Special to THE HEu,t.LL. Mr. Healyear, Jeweller, of. Clin- ton, was in town this week visiting and calling on friends. Monday, the 25th, was very gene- erally observed in this town, all the places of business being closed. Tho Junior foot -ball team, of this town, took part in the sports, .at Exeter, on Monday last, diad held the home club down to a tie score of one each. • The Band will play on the stand On Saturday evening, this week, as usual, commencing at 8 o'clock and an excellent program may be oonfl- dently expected. We understand the boss section - man, on this division, has been laid off duty by the G, T. R. authorities This looks like holding him respou- Bible for the I:ate accident on the road, near Kippen. The open-air concert by the Bancl took place on Thursday evening, last week, instead of Saturday, in order to let some of its members take .advantage of the cheap fares, to visit friends and relatives out of town. The Oddfellows' have, it is said, ordered new sej:tees for their lodge - room, as 'well as a number of dress, snits and some other regalia ; they are also asking for tenders for an entension of some 10 or 15 feet, to their ITall property. The Connell of the Corporation are, we .are informed, contemplat- ing the sinking of a deep well, to be worked by a powerful wnd�ziiill, in order to supply water for fire-fight- inrand street -sprinkling purposes, At present insurance rates are high and it is thought that with better facilities for protecting property from the devouring element, they may induce the fire under -writers to place the town in a dffernt and more favorable class. A by-law has been passed by the 'Council, at the request of the busi- ness Hien of the town, authorising and legalising the closing of busi- ness places at 7 &lock, on three evenings each week, viz: Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. A pen- a,itp is attached for infractions of the 1a\v, and aconviction can thus be seetteed :hid enforced before any • competent authority, on the production of proof of such infraetion,.:oy', any of the trsdes or callings coming under the scope of the lay -law, oto e.
