a/gammatm Gambling and Betting. v The Evil and Pernicious Consequences of Such Practices Forcefully Portrayed. Ed The News: 1st Every device that suddenly changos money or property from ono poison to another without leaving an equivalent, produces individual embarrassment?often oxtrome misery. More pernicious is that plan, if it changes property and money from the hands of the many to the few. 2nd It inIIlets injury. Gambling docs this, and often inflicts a still greater in j...j, Uj |iuibuiuiik us vicumswiih vice that eventually loads to crimes of the darkest hue. Usually, the money basoly llleliod from its victims is the smallest part of the injury inlliclcd. It almost inevitably londs to intemperance. Every species of od'enso, on the black catalogue of crime, may be traced to the gambling table, as the entering wedge to its perpetration 3rd Innocent amusement. To tho fashionable of our country, who play cards and other games as an innocent amusement, we may trace tin* most aggravated injuries resulting from gambling. It is thore that young men of talents, education and wealth, take the degree of ontercd apprentice. The example of men in high life, men in public stations and responsible olliees, has a powerful and corrupting inducnceon society, and does much to increaso tho evil, and forward, as woll as sanction the high-handed robbery of lino dressed blacklegs. The gambling hells in our cities and towns, tolerated and patronized, aro a disgrace to a nation bearinor a christian name, and would he banished from a 1'agan community. Variety of forms. < iamhling assumes ft great variety of forms, from tho Hipping of a cent to see who pays for drinks, up to tho splendidly furnished faro bank-room, whore men are occasionally swindled to tho tune of tenthousand a year: and sometimes a much larger amount. In addition to these varieties, wo have legalized lotteries and fancy stock brokers, and among those who manage them, professors of religion are not (infrequently found.| 5th Gambling or gaming covers in darkness, and often blots out all the nobler powers of the heart, paralizes its sonsihilitics to human woe, severs the sacred ties that bind man to man, to woman, to family, to community, to morals, to religion, to social order, and to country. Tt transforms men into brutes, desperadoes, maniacs, misanthropists, and strips human nature of all its native dignity. The gamester forfeits the happiness of this lifo, and endures tho penalties of sin in both worlds. titli Itetting on the races.

Those who follow the rncq^will livo to seriously regret their folly. 7th .Shun the monster. Let me entreat all to shun the monster, under all his borrowed and'deceptive forms. Remember that gambling for amusement is the wicket gate into the labyrinth, and when once in, you may lind it difficult to got out. Ruin is marked in blazing capitals over the door of the gambler; his hell is svthe vestibule to that eternal hell whore the worm dieth not and the fire is not quenched. 8 Kth Terrible consequences. The youth should not forgot that if he is once taken in tho coils of this vice, the hope > of extricating himself, or of realizing his visions of wealth and happiness, is exceedingly faint. He has no rational grounds to expect that ho can escape the terrible consequences that are inseparably connected with sin. If ho does become bankrupt in property he is suro to become one in character and in moral principle; he becomes a debauched, debased, friendless vagabond. "Observer." A Jeweler's Experience C. B.
