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. Look for
greatness and goodness 011 the race
track?where is it to bo found! The
men who have paved their way
to the front in achieving success have
never boon the companions of jockies
or gamblers. 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.
