The Unholy Thirst.

“The evil of alcohol is its power to de- throne reason and lead iss victim a drivelling wap ive to poverty, vice and crime, I+ en- abiea people to overwork miad and body; to evive dep. essed spirits, caus:d by social dis- 8 pat on; te put at rest a stumach loaded with unsholesome food; to silence the vvice of an vutrag. d couscience; to drown the woes for 4 time eugendered by a reckless life. —Dr. E. B, Foote, in Plain Talk.

Whether alcoho! be male an enemy or a friend depeads wholly on the uses itis put to. The alcohol subject is no exception to the rule that insists epon every question having two aides to it, for while it can be Proved tv be, on the une hand, about as damnable an enemy to the welfare of man-

kind as intel'igence caa recognias, it can ‘

also be shown thac life, health, happiness and enjoyment +re indebted to its fmendly assistance. These are the two poinis | wish in this article to examine, sv I will cunsider alcohol in ita dual character of Enemy and Friend.

Dr. Day, of the Binghampton Inebriate Asyium, says that dissections of dead drunkards betray enlargement of the g obules of which the brain, blood arid other organs are Cumpvsed, so that those globules giand, as it were, open-mouthed, empty, at istand intlamed, and all eager to be filled.” If this is the result of only the excessive use of the pure article, what must be the effect of 1t under the various forms ol adulters ion ?

Modern ** brandy” is a destractive com- pound of Spanish juice, spirits, sulphuric acid, burnt sugar, ete , and though it may not be generally known, there are manu- facturies of **blends” that deceive even ex- perts sold to dealers, to convert the raw product into a perfect imitation of the now scarce, but genuine article.

Or take gin, as commonly sold to-day : it is variously concocted, from alum, acetate of lead, carbonate of potash, tincture of capsicum, juniper oil, coriander seed, cal- amus root, and sulphuric acid added to a tittle of the highly water-reduced genuine article. Strychunine, lye of ashes and var- ious other puisons are compounded with a lot of water and a little real spurit, and pass under respectable names for whiskey, while damaged cider, poor wines, sug»r, brandy and tartaric acid, ingsniwus y blended, make up any brand or vintage of champagne r quired.

The manuiacture of whiskey may be safeiy put dowa throughout civilization as equal to five gallons per capita, including tagn, women and children, snd more than i of this is a slaughicring compound,

deatity properties are mingling with the blood and nerves of teas of mdhons of peuple to ther ruin ; and itis the opipion vf physicians in charge of public institu- tions (as reported by Dz. Fuvie, of New York,) that delirium tremens 1s defiant of remedial agents now-a-days, in consequence of the utter prustration of the nervous sys- tem of drunkards, owing to the prevailing use of strychnine in the manufacture of ordinary liquor. An inspeetor of 249 samples of spirits reported one-tenth of them entire imitations, and a large portion of these poisonous concoctions. Of brandy, he aflirmed that one gallon only of the genuine was on sale in every hunired gal- lous used. Of wine, only one gallon is genuine in a thousand that purports to be sherry or per, which by chemical analysis he found to be water, su:phuric acid, alum, csyenne pepper and horse radish, and many of them with not a drop of spirit. He also referred to his whiskey analyses as (some of them) containing eneugh sulphuric acid im «quart to eat a hole in a man’s stumach ; and a case is cited of several hun- dred hogs “treated” to discillery slops, all of which died from the effects of the strychnine that remained in the wash. To pile up further evidence agatnat this ‘‘enemy of minkind” would be out of place in this short paper upon man’s un- holy thirst, aad it does not seem necessary to condemn the authors of its mischief nor coasign its victims to pains and penalties by way of correcting the drivk habit, for men will manufacture clandestinely what they may not openly, if there is demand enough to risk the consequences—and men who are cursed with an unholy thirst for a atimulant will gulp down anything that will promise forgetfuiness of misery, or put aside a sorrew, OF fur-

=

nish a fictitious happiness, evea if im the end he ia sure of becoming a wreck, and penniless, aud friendless, and a fool. The words of Robert Herrick, the poet, I think, apply to such an one:

“Tumble me down, and I will sit Upon my ruines (smiling yet) : Teare me to tatters; yet I'll be Patient in mine necessitie. Laugh at my scraps of cloathes, and shun Me aa a tear’d infection, Yet, scare-crow like, I'il walk, as one Who disregaids derision.”

Fearful as the picture may be drawn, how- ever, resulting from the abuse of ‘“‘fire water” and the use of its infernal imitations, it can, in its purest furm, claim, and eatab- lish its claim, to be regarded a8 & friend — because it is a natural element and essential ‘9 our human condition of life. There are medical properties in unadulterated wine, brandy, gin, rum and whiskey, which have never been c+lled in question by any large number of intel igent opinions, and all civil- ized nations have, by their use as beverages, endorsed this real or supposed value. It is to the justice of this claim I will now allude. That these liquids (in their pure state) have such an irrepressible popularity, may be due either to their beneficial effeets on the healthy tissues, or to their recuperative power in conditions of disease.

As the whole human family is more or lees subject to derangement, from imper- fection in physical development some popular panacea has always beer » univer- sal want, and as wine has, or is said to have, the power to~*‘ rejoice the heart of

ods and men,” it was likely to secure its election to the chief place for such thera- peutic uses. ’

Alcohol is a product of the most nutritive ‘snbatances, and of so much ralue to them

, that in its absence,decayat once commences | Alcohol can arrest decay in vegetable | matter, and stop fermentatioa in liquids and a'l canned fruits remain fit to be con- sumed because their being hermeticslly ‘sealed, prevents the natural alcoh sl escap- ing byevsporation, and the fact that so many things familiar to every one are preserved ‘h spirits, is certainly showing thst as a ‘preserver alcohol is a friend. Asa medi- cine, its action is tu retard a too rapid waste j of the physical coustitueuts of one who is diseased.

Dr Foote, referring tua scrofulous dia- thesis, says the corpuscles of the blood ‘exhibit a kind of decomposed or rotten appearance, and this disposition to rot may be arrested by the judicious use of liquors Alcohol then is a friend to the scrofulous patient, and 20 alsv to those having the thin and watery blood of colorless invalids, for the drug can change and restore such to a healthy condition

According to Licbig, good beer gives warmth and stimulus similar tothe use of bread and meat, holding in solution, sugar, gum and starch, and possessing the tonic an’ hypn-tic proper ties of the hop. Tacitue speaks of ite use over a thoueand years ago, but what he re- ferred to was not what +s sold now, composed ef wormwood and alves in the place of hops, euiphate of iron, alum and salt to give it ‘thead,” or corianuderseed, hartshorn, liquorice, copperas, Spanish juice, quassia, orange peal, cspsicum, giog-r, etc,, to make it palatable —- chacun a son of gout.

I have written the foregoing because I want to append a few suggestions which I think are more practical than the discussions now ir i- tating the good people of Oharlottetewn. Charlottetown, and indeed the whole Pro- vince, has something besi’es the Scott Act,

rohibition, free rum. or bigh license to fig’ t.

tisto put aicohol in i-s proper place with other drugs, where it properly belongs It is to induce the Government to adopt the new liquor motto, “If you will have liquer you shail have it pure.” It is to put the question on every tax paper of assessmen*, “Do ou, or do you not use as a beverage distill-d spirits?” It is to tax every habitual con- umer 5 or 10 dellars per annum. It is to have an eflicient analyst in every county, whose duty it shall be to detect adulterations and pretect the genuine article. It is to remove the delusions of spasmodic temperance talk, which is only believed in by those who have no unholy thirst. It is to insist that an open disposal of what is bought t. quench thirsts is better than a secret supply from dark holes and corners qvenching only self respect and mantiness. It is, seeing that man (as Pascal expresses it) is both the glory and the scandal of the universe, to teach ‘“*pure living” and a ‘“‘pare diet” as the first path to thas glorv, and shew each citizen for himse!f, the duty he owes to the rest, to avoi all adulterations whatever, and particularly the seandalons concoctious that have become known as “blue-rain,” ‘liquid fire,” and ‘distilled damnation.”

If it is extraordinary that man should put an enemy in his mouth to steal awav hie brain is it not tar more strange that he shou'd arm that enemy with weapons to more effectually degrade and destroy; but this he does when he drinks the deadly concoctions offered him, to quench his unholy thirst.

Millinery.

Miss Maggie McQuarrie, having just returned from New York, (where she has been working for the last eighteen months under the different first-class milliners of that great centre) has taken the reom above Stanley Bros. store, and is prepared to do all kinds of millinery work in the latest styles.

Miss McQuarrie begs to inform the public that she is acquainted with all the details of artistic work, and has intimate knowledge of the different styles now so munch in vogue, and which were introduced into New York for the first time last season. All patronage extended to her will have her personal attention.

Most Useful of All Inventions.

The question of which is the most useful invention, has sometimes been raised and de- bated in school societies. There is oer 28 question, but it is a good mental exercise to think over and talk on the theme. Printin so far extends beyond and towers above al other inventions which help the world nay, that no comparison can be made with it. It san ‘s alone as a meatal lumivary and a moral beacoa, and there is no nook or corner of the knowa world into which its light has not penetrated. Wherever it shines, civiliza- tion springs as a natural growth of the en lightened mind, and produces fruit in harmony with the external conditions The products raay differ in kind and quality, but they all have the certain flavor of culture. They are such as the soil is capabie of producing under the best cultivation that can possibly be applied to it, and often the tillage is more honored by the product than is the soil. In this sense the art of printing is a creator of new worlds, and the preserver and benefactor of its own evolutions. Out of the stones in the quarries, metals in the mines and trees in the forests, men make new creations of forms; and ia the same sense men make new creations of mind from types of their own invention, and upon these types, a new creation of the world, This ie the grand triumph of the art of printing, and in its results it immeasurably over-tops all other arts and sciences which embellish and bless mankind.

Dyspepticure—ls not a palliative, bat acure; it first relieves, then controls, aid finally entirely subdues the irritation and in- flammation of the stomach that causes indi- gestion and dyspepsia.

For Over Firry Years Mrs. Wiansloe’s Soothing Syrup has been used by millions of mothers for their children while cutting teeth. It relieves the little sufferer at once ; it pro- duces natural, quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain, and the little cherub awakes as ‘‘ bright as a button.” It is very pleasaut to taste. It soothes the child, softeus the gums, allays all pain, relieves wind, regulates the bowels, and is the best-known remedy for diarrhea, whether aiising from teething or other causes. Twenty-five cents a bottle Be sure and ask for ‘* Mra. Winsloe’s Soothing Syrup,” and take no other kind.
