OW, Prepared for the Baptist Courier by the Rev. - 'Luther Broaddus. ted amd The subject selected by sev be cral publishers For Sunday school lessons for September 25, is the popular subject of Teniperance; we may, therefore, not inappro. priately fill our Sunday school col umn with somethitig about tem Mr. rite perarice in the Sunday school. While Sunday school instrue ous tion should be directed to tbe thorough and symmetrical devel. opment of the highest type of or manhood and wonianhood, and must, therefore, embrace all sub jects bearing upon such develop I s - I ment, it must never be forgotten up that the Sunday school is not a n lgyrmnasium for the training of cultivated ladics knd gentlemen, the nor a school of morals for the pro duction of a high style of moral a charactei, but that its great aim and is to save souls through the pre sentation of gospel truth. Polite manners and high moral qualities must thorefore be enjoined in >od- Sunday school teaching, fron a "0 gospel point of view. And the ent truth should be recognized and emphasized that to attain to the full statue of a man and a gentle uch man one must be a christian. The the Sunday school is, therefore, no place in which to inculcate les sons of temperance or of any other moral quality. from purely our social or political or economic considerations. Nor has any one. mnt- idea, fanatical reformer ihe right ton to use the sunday school as the she arena in which to display his en thisiasri and ability in pressing , It the claims of his pet subject ; nor ishould any one he permitted to cen thrust such a snbjecet into undue her importance, to the neglect ot others. lbut on the 'ter hand, no Sun day mchool in which this subject is ignored or neglected is doing its full work and coming up prop da-' erly co the demands of the times. , o-After all, there is nothing as a ids, safe.guard against the evils of ces in1teiperatice %compiarable with the the education of public sentiment. Se -cret oath-bound societies, inc. 'briate-asylu ms and prohibitory * .O laws are all powerless without i of this. You may bind a man with 'oaths as awful as hell, and as true as heaven, you may lock him up icin an inebriate asylum, you may brand him o pumish him as a criminal a gainst the laws~ ot the land, but none of these ,ten in ca " t tire ngs ca iet him an enlight ened reason or a pure and r'ugged Imoral character. These qualities can be securied only by the use of anproper influence and thorough training. And these can be ip 11-plied at no time so effectively as I to. ini youth, and throug~h no chian nel pr-more appropriately than the Sun ~rday school. TLhe stereotyped Sunday school speech has in 'frmed us several times, that the toSunday school is the nursery of yethe churcb. and the young are the Shope of the country. The easiest irly and surest way, then, to have uOtsober men in the church and in is. the country is to catch them and while they are young and train them in the Sunday school. Seize h-the boys before their habits are crystalized and( their characters formed, and imbed in their plastic .her minds and bearts the pure and powerful picpeofmorality nhat Dropping all cant and fanaticism >ef~ on this subject, let every Sunday ns ? school teacher aim at the devel. gra- opment of such manly and heroic 0ny- moral powr and the cultivation n't I of such implicit re-liante upot you Christ, in those committed to his row care, as shall secure them againsi d'the temptation to intemp)erance the wijj wh4ich they may have tc ~l<coontend.

T A BLE ETIQUETTE. There are a great number of people who behave well othC- a wise, but at the table they do n, things that, if not absolutely a outre and ensemble are at least a pianissimo and sine die. s It is with a view to elevating a the popular taste, and etherealiz d ing, so to speak, the manners and b customs of' our readers, that we C give below a few hints on tabl- S etiquette : s< If' by writi.ng an article of this b kind we can induce one man who T now wipes his hands on the table ti cloth to come up and take higher T groand an wipe them on hi: t< pants. we shall feel amply repsid. al If' you cannot accept an invita- W tion to dinner do not write your in regards on the bock of a pool check with a blue pencil. This i. b not regarded as ricochet. w A simple note to your host in- a forming him that your washer p woman refuses to relent is suffi J cient. ir On seating yourself at the table ee draw off your gloves and put them a in your lap uuder your napkin. Do h not put them in the gravy, as it g would ruin the gloves and cast a ti gloom over the gravy. If you have just cleaned your gloves with te benzine you leave them out in the a. front yard. tt If you happen to drop gravy on r< your knife blade, back near the m handle, do not run the blade down h your throat to remove the gravy, ti as it might injure your epiglotis, and it is not considered embon- w point any way. ti When you are at dinner do not tI take up a raw oyster on your fork ct and playfully ask your host if it is w dead. Remarks about death at w dinner are in very poor taste. Pears should be held by the w stems and peeled gently but firm- t< ly, not as though you were skin tf ning a dead hors. It is not bon M toi. h Oranges are held on a fork I while being peeled, and the face- e tious style of squirting the juice H into the eye of your hostess is t< now an revoir. - Stones in cherries or other t: fruit should not be placed upon ri the tablecloth, but slid quietly 0 and unostentatiously into the t< pocket of your neighbor or noise. 6 lessly tossed uinder the table. If you strike a worm in your r fruit do not call attention to it by p mashing it with the nnt cracker. " This is not only uncount, but it is a regarded in ti,e best society 'as g blase and exceedingly vice versa t Macaroni should be cut into w short pieces and eaten with ano even graceful motion. not absorbed a by the yardj. In drinking wino, when you get Ic to the bottom of your glass do not ia throw your head back and draw b in your breath like the exhaust of a a bath tub in order to get the last 5< drop), as it engenders a feeling of' -p the most depressing melancholy li among the guests. After eating a considerable C amount do not rise and unbuckle your vest strap in order to get more room, as it is exceedingly au fait and deshabille.

THE MAN IN THE MOON. The disk of the moon, as is very )parent. is not of uniform bright. ass, but is diversified by dark -eas here and there. These dark -eas are so arranged as. to repre nt the eyes, nose and mouth of human being, and the whole sk represents, passably well, a iman face. Not all people, how rer, can see this resemblance. )>me who cannot see the face can e a man and a woman carrying tween them a bucket of water. he man stands on the left side of e disk, the woman on the right. o some the dark spaces appear have the same shape as North id South America, as if the estern Continent was reflected the moon. The Tartars see more of these, it their 'man in the moon' is a ood-cutter, bearing on his back huge bundle of wood and sap )rting himself with a staff. The ipanese see the form of a rabbit a sitting posture. His long Lrs stand erect, and before him is large mortar. In his forepaws ) holds a pestle, with which,he is rinding rice after t6e manner of ie Japanese. The Emperor Rodolph, who of n observed the moon with the ;tronomer, Kepler, saw upon it ie image of Italy. The ancie nts cognized the resemblance of-the oon to the human face, for the storian Plutarch wrote a trea se contradicting the vulgar idea. rreat fools,' said he, 'are they ho think that they see a fade on io moon. That which they'tLbink iey see is an illusion. It is 6used by fatigue of the eye, hich makes light- and shade bere there is ohly uniformity.' How greatly he was mistaken as shown afterwards, when the lescope was invented. Under te powerful eye of this instru ent the surface of the moon ex. bits anything but uniformity. equals in roughness the rough it portion of the earth's surface. .uge mountain craters are-seat red over the disk, and within any of these are smaller moun bins. Deep chasms and high dges are ab.undant. "From some r the mountains, long rays ex md in every direction like reams of lava. Thbe telescope dispels all those ~semblances which are so ap I.rent to the naked eye, but even ith this aid not all people see ike. One likens the moon to a reen cheese, while another iinks it resembles a body of ater frozen over with the riffles -I its surface, and the craters are r-holes in the ice. Anotheg mile, perhaps the most ridiett us5 of all, is that of a pot of boil ig mush, the craters being the a bbles of air as8 they conte up ~d burst on the surface, Some e only a eold, desolate, dead aniet, incapable of supporting Fe of t,ny kind, while others see ,ilecys, streams, eanais and other iaracteristics of mother earth.
