At tne meeting of the Paris Hospitals Medical society, says the London Lan cet, M. Legendre, alarmed by the ever increasing amount of drunkenness, asked if it would sot be possible to withstand this by means of meetings, insistence on the dangers of alcohol, and by what he considered an even bet ter method, that of getting up for the instruction of patients lantern shows with exhibitions of anatomic prepara tions to show the dangers of alcohol. M. Legendre has had printed for the use of all his patients a little leaflet, the text of which runs as follows: - "Most of the diseases treated in the hospitalu arise from alcoholic drinks that is to say, they are either caused or aggravated by the abuse of alcohol. All alcoholic drinks are dangerous, and the most harmful are those which con tain aromatics in addition to alcohol as, for instance, absinthe and the so called aperients, called ainers. "Alcoholic drinks are more danger ous.when taken on an empty stomach or between xeals. A man necessarily becomes, an alcoholic i. e., slowly poisoned by "alcohol even if he never getB drunk, when every day he drinks alcohol in the form of liquor or too much' wine, more than one liter per diem. - " "Alcohol is a poison, the habitual use of which destroys more or less quick-? ly, but none the less certainly, all the organs most necessary, to life the stomach, the liver, the kidneys, the blood vessels, the heart and the brain. Alcohol excites man, but does . not strengthen him. It is no substitute for food, but takes away the taste for it. Those who often drink alcohol or too much wine more than one litre a day) are much more liable to illness, and when ill are much worse, for the dis ease is often complicated with fatal de lirium. - "Alcohol is a frequent cause of con sumption by its power of weakening the lungs. Every year we see patients who attend the hospitals -for alcohol ism come back some months later suf fering from consumption.. Fathers and mothers who drink often have children who are deformed. or idiots or who die from fita. A PEUCKYCHAPLAlff. Stories of a. Ocatlewaa of the Clotk Who Bnm Bre -. ' " . Soldier. .". '' A "fighting chaplam, Rev. James B. Hamilton,:. Thirty-first Indiana, who died not very long ago, ged"89"years. wis so modest that be never would give out any t hang' for public a tion about himself during his lifetime. ; I have been waiting for some comrade to publish something about one- of the best and most earnest men who ever lived. The incidents given here are trae I every particular, says H. B. Baker, in- the National . Tribune. - Tt.. sfinlnin was an itmrnt f ptf- odlst preacher, fearless in speech, in- tensely loyah and, of course, hurt feel ings while preaching in Sullivan county, IncL, a home of copperheadism and Humphries and other shining lights of the Knights of the Golden Circle. Rev. Hamilton' was traveling1 the . lanton circuit in the spring of 1864. and had to preach at the fnneraljof a soldier about four, miles from town at one of his regular preaching places. . He was to meet the procession at the church.. After he had premised to go he re ceived an awkward-iy-gotten-up notice, by mail that he must not go or he would be egged. Well, the funeral pro- cession arrived at the church first, andi .was seated when he gtot there. He coolly walked- into the pulpit and laid out his Bible, opened it, and then dee w two seven-shooters from his pockets and laid one on each side of the Bible. -He read the notice he had received and -said: " . ; '' . . .:. "These "f eKows who gave that, notice could not egg anything-, as they had no hens,vand, of course, had no eg-gs. They; had no money to buy eggs, and were too cowardly to steal them." He ' went on, saying: "I have two hens here," and as he picked up the revoly ers and cocked them, he said: "They lay seven etggs each, and cackle every time they lay an egg". If there is the least disturbance they will "cackle." All was quiet dmring1 that service. At one time he and his wife were in their buggy driving- home 'from reg-u- lar services, when they came upon the notorious copperhead, "Capt." Sis son, "who was drilling his men. The "captain" drew his company across the road and gave the command: "Right dress, front, order arms. Now, not a d n man move."- The parson drove up to within eight or "ten paces, gave the lines to his wife, and raised in his bugigy with a revolver in each hand, . and said: . - - 1 "If you don't get out of the road I will move a man who will be damned pretty quick also." And the cowards literally ran over each other to get out of the way. Nothings more was said, and he and his wife drove on their way. Hamilton was appointed chaplain of the Thirty-first in September, 1864. Col. Smith and he went to the regi ment together, and they arrived, on Saturday in the forenoon, just about the time dinner was ready. Thequar- . termaster came up and was introduced by the 'colonel to the new chaplain. This quartermaster was ever profane, but that day he was more than usually so. The chaplain had scarcely time to 'return thanks between thequartermas-i ter's oaths. The chaplain finished his dinner first and walked around in front of the tent, and was Walking- back and forth. When the quartermaster came around also, the chaplain walked up in front of him and said: "Captain,. you were introduced to me . -w j 1 7 &.gentieman, ana l unaersiana you were introduced as a gentleman, but I Olllliilllllllglliii IIKilli' "I HAVE TWO HENS HERE." find that you are not a gentleman. You are nothing- but a vulgar, profane black guard, and if you have sense enough you have purpoftely .tried to insult me. .1 will give you just two minutes to apologize. - If you do not in that time I will whip you until you will have to have help to get to y5ur horse." f He took a step toward the quarter- master and he wilted and begged off. In the meantime the whole regiment "caught on" and crowded around and yelled and cheered themselves hoarse. They all believed in and loved their chaplain after that. There was always a bier turn-out of. the bova when Rev. Hamilton, of the Thirty-first Indiana was to preach. - The chaplam was reported by eye witnesses to have been on the front line in every battle in which hia regi ment was engaged while he was chap lain, and there were lots of them. It was told me by an eyewitness' that on December 15 at Nashville, in theTate afternoon, a charge was ordered to take a rebel fort in front of the Thirty first. The fort was surrounded by a wide ditch and hig-h banks of earth on a hilltop, up whih the charge had to be made. The. boys went up gallantly, the chaplain with a carbine loading and shooting in front. When Bob Crockett, of company Jt,- got on top of the fort, and looking down in the fort saw the chaplain knocking down and ordering Johnnies to surrender,' in' a stentorian voice Crockett cried : "Who ever saw a chaplain in a fight before?" and they all cheered and gathered around to help him. . .
