Women or Wine*
An Epistle to the President of the. Sew England
Society, who recommended the introduction of
Women in place of Wine at Entertainments.
“One of the two, according to your choice,
Woman or wine you’ll have to undergo;
Both maladies are fatal to our joys :
But which to choose 1 really hardly know.
*******
1 have tried both ; so those who would a part take,
May chooic between the headache and the heartache.”
Byron.
Oh ! weak and fool-hardy reformer,
To substitute women lor wine;
The glow of whose presence is warmer
Than the sunniest juice of the vine.
Believe me, less fatal are juleps
Than women in witchery skilled ;
For there oozes more venom from two lips
Than ever from grain was distilled.
Who barters lor beauty his whiskey,
The change will be certain to rue ;
For her eyes shed a spirit more frisky
Than lurks in the best mountain dew.
Ah 1 those eyes at each meeting so merry
Y'ou’ll find to out sparkle champagne ;
And ringlets more golden than sherry
Will fuddle as well the poor brain.
More tapering necks than the bottle’s.
With mouths more bewildering crowned.
Will pour from their ravishing throttles
A stream that a sage would confound.
If wine makes us brutes, love is abh?
To turn us to fools with like ease ;
If the one lays its under the table,
’Tother brings us at least to our knees.
After dinner, when wanned with good eating.
’Tis women, not wine we should flee :
“Perfect Love’s” a chasse case more heating
Than ever abused “eau de vie.”
Still at table some mischief she’s bre wing ;
Oft feet scrape acquaintance below :
Ah! no heel-tap’s so pregnant with ruin
As these hidden taps of the toe.
And hands, between courses at leisure,
Make friends when there’s no one to mark :
Ah! less poison yield grapes under pressure,
Than fingers thus squeezed in the dark.
As home reels the toper of beauty,
How crimson his visage, poor elf!
How fevered he sleeps ! how his duty
Is left to take care of itself!
When thwarted, how palsied his powers,
Till lie sinks in despair at death’s door :
Oh! if woman her victim thus lowers,
What, I ask, can the bottle do more?
No spirit so ardent as woman’s—
So sure to intoxicate man:
Her touch is “delirium tremens,”
That maddens him more than the can.
The glance of her eye is “blue ruin,”
Her blush is the blood of the vine,
Her pout is a punch, in whose brewing
Tart, sugar, and spirit c<»mbine.
So sparkling, so heating, so heady,
No hoj>e for her victim ap;tears :
Should her smiles only render him giddy,
He’ll be surely made drunk by her tears.
Not the grape juice of Eden made Adam
So stupidly lorfeit his all ;
Hut the lure ofhis volatile Madam
Led him tipsily on to his fall.
Not the wines of fair Cyprus the rover
So sure as its women beguile ;
Belter rest where he is, “half-seas over,”
Than steer for so fatal nn isle.
Oh ! then shun such a tempter as this is,
Nor commerce so hazardous court;
Who embarks on the wuves of her iresstr.^
Will grieve that he ventured from Port.
An Emlgraiifu Blessing.--by hr. mack ay.
The following very beautiful lines have a pathos in
them that is irresistibly melting. Like the aged tree,
forced from its parent soil, tl»** heart of the poor emi
grant, who can think, must perforce, for a time, droop
and wither by the violent wrench which tears him
from his native country. After all, there is n magic
spell in the name of “ Home !”—Home of one’s fire
fathers !
Farewell England ! —blessings on thee,
Stern and niggard as thou art:
llur>lily, mother, thou hast used me,
And my bread thou hast refused me ;
But ’tis agony to part.
• ’Twill pass over ; for I would not
Bear again what I could tell
Half the ills tint I have suffer'd,
• Though I loved thee twice as well.
So —my blessings on thee, England,
And a long and last farewell.
Other regions w ill provide me
lnde|>emleiice tor my age ;
Recompense for hard exertion
For my children the reversion
Os a goodly heritage.
England —this thou couldst not give tne ;
England, pamperer of squires
Landlord ridden, pride encumber’d,
q her of the poor man’s fires;
Bin : .veil!—iny blessing on thee,
Tin t art the country of my sires.
Though I love, I’atn glad to fly thee;
Who would live in hopeless toil
Evil-steep’d, and ill-exainph-d,
Press’d and jostled, crush’d and trampled,
Interloper on the soil—
If there were one other country
Where an honest man might go;
Winning corn-fields from the forest
All his own, t«H» — blow by blow !
Farewell, England I regret thee,
But my tears refuse to flow.
ilaplv o’er the southern ocean
I shall do my pail t«y ear
A new nation, Saxon-blooded,
Which with plenty crown’d ami studded,
To its ha) py children dear,
Shall eclipse thy fame, oh England !
Taught and warn'd alike bv thee;
Mightier with umdiukled commerce,
“ Mtyhii’ r at-Lamim mure fee, _
Mightier in her virgin vigor,
And her just equality.
But farewell! —my blessing on thee!
Ne\er till my latest day,
Shall my memory cease to ponder
On thy fate, where’er I wander;
Never shall I cease to pray
That thy poor may yet be happy ;
That thy rich their pride may quell:
That tnou may’st in peaceful progress
All thy misery dispel.
Queen of nations—once their model-
God be with thee 1 Fure-thee-well ’
“ A Gem of Purnt Hay Serene.”
The death of Kichard llenrv Wilde is ail
incident which gives n deeply melancholy inter
est to every line of that exquisite effusion ofhis.
the mere mention ofwhichfor years has recalled
his name with so much pleasure to his country
men ami countrywomen. Touching .as it has
ever been, it is uow invested with a yet deeper
pathos, from the recollection that the hand which
penned it is now nerveless and still forever :
** Mv life is like the summer rose
That opens to the morning sky.
But ere the shades of evening close,
Is scattered on the gn uml—to die!
Y et, o« the rose’s humble bed
The sweetest dews of night are shed,
As if she wept the waste to see
But noue shall weep a tear for me !
“ My life is like the autumn leaf
That trembles in the moon’s pale ray ;
Its hold is frail, its date is brief.
Restless and soon to pass away
Y et, ere that leaf shall fall and fade.
The parent tree will mourn us shade,
The wind bewail the leafless tree —
But none shall breathe a sign for uie !
** My life is like the prints which feet
Have left on Tampa's desert strand ;
S<x'n as the rising tid>- shall beat.
Ail trace will vanish from the straud :
Yet, as if grieving to efface
All vestige of the human race.
On tlwxt l.«ne shore loud moans the so a
But none, alas ! shall mourn for me!”

Irisli IlciirU,
At the moment when the sufferings of the
Irish people engross so large a share of public
sympathy, the following sketch of Irish charac
ter may not be found uninteresting. To ns it
seems touching and truthful. The story leller
prefaces die incident by stating that lie found
an Irish family, of a husband, wife, and several
children, on one of our lake steamers. They
were in great destitution : and the beauty of the
children was the theme for the admiration of
all their fellow travellers. At the request of a
lady passenger, w ho, having no children of her
own. was desirous of taking one of the little
Irishers and adopting it. the narrator addressed
himself to the head of the family. We do not
know the author of the sketch, and give it as
*ve find it.
“ Although.’ says the story teller, “ 1 bad con
siderable doubts as to the results i offered iuy
services as a negotiator, and proceeded imme
diately upon mv delicate diplomacy. Finding
my friend on deck, I thus opened the affair :
“You are very poor!”
Ills answer was characteristic—
“l*oor. sir?” said he : “ay, if there’s a poor
er man than me troublin' the world, Hod pity
ov us, for we'd he about aiqual ”
“Then how do you manage to support your
children !”
“Is it support them, sir? Why I don’t sup
port them any way ; they get supported some
way or another. It’ll he time enough for me
to complain when they do?”
“ Would it be a relief to you to part with one
of them !”
It was too sudden : he turned sharply round.
“A what sir!” he cried: “a relief to part
from me child ? Would it ht* a relief to have
the hands chopped from the body, or the heart
torn out of me breast ’ And relief indeed ?
God he good to us. w hat do you mean ?*’
“ You don’t understand me,” I replied: if
now. it were in one's power to provide com
fortably for one of vour children, w ould you
'•land in the way of its interests ?”
“ No, sir.” said he: ’-the Heaven knowsjtliat
1 would willingly cut the sunshine a wav from
meself, that they might get all the warm of it:
bifttkMi’U U* alfitt you’re driving at.”
I then told him that a lady had :a!:»*n a fancy
to one of his children : and if lie would con
sent to it. it should he educated and finally set
tled comfortably in life.
This threw him into a fit of gratulntion. He
scratched his head, and looked the very picture
of bewilderment. The struggle between a
father’s love ami a child's interest was evident
and touching ; at length lie said:
“Oh, murther. would’nt ii be a great tiling
for the baby ? But 1 must go ami have a talk
with .Mary—that’s the mother of them ; an’ it
w ould ill ho right to he giving aw ay her children
afore her face, ami she know nothing at all
about it.”
“Away with you, then.” said I; “ and bring
me an answer back as soon as possible.”
11l about an hour be returned, leading two of
lus children. His eyes were red and swollen,
ami his face pale from excitement and agita
tion.
*• Well." I inquired: “ what success ’”
“ Bedad. it was a hard struggle, sir.’’ said he.
•‘but I’ve been talkin’ to Mary, an she savs
as it’s for tiie child’s good, may lie the Heavens
above will give us strength to bear it.”
“ Very. well, and which of them is it to be?”
"Faix. an’ l don’t know sir.’’ and he rail his
eyes dubiously over both Here’s No nth—
she’s the oldest, an' won’t want her mother so
much but then—oh! tear ail aigers—it’s mv
solf that can’t tel! which I’d rather part w ith
least: so take the first that comeswid a blessin’.
There, sir”—and In* handed over little NY rah
—turning hack, lie snatched her up in his arms,
and gave her one long hearty father’s kiss, sav
ing through his teats: ;
“ May God be good to him that’s good to you
and them that offers * on hurt or harm, may their
souls never see St. Pethur.”
Then, taking his other child by the hand, he
walked away, leaving Norah with tne.
I took her down in the cabin, and we thought
the matter settled. It must be confessed, it'
my great indignation, however, in about an
hour’s time I saw my friend Pat at the w indow*.
As >o**u as he caught my eve. he commenced
making signs for me to come out. 1 did so—mid
found he had lhe other child m his arms.
*• What’s the matter now !" said I.
“Well sir.’ said he: lax your pardon for
troubling you about so foolish a thing as a child
or two. but we were thinkin’that maybe it’d
make no differ—you see. sir. I’ve been talking
to Mary, an’ she says she can't part w ith Norah.
because —the creature lias a look ov tne; but
here’s little Biddy, she’s purtheir far. an’ a\
you please, sir. will you swap ’”
“ Certainly.” said I. *• wheuever you like.”
So he snapped up little Norah. as though i:
were some recovered treasure, and darted
awav w ith her. leaving little Biddv. who re
mained with us all night: but lo ’ the moment ;
when we entered the cabin in the morning,
there was Pat making mysterious signs again
at the window, and by this time he had the
youugest. a baby, in his arms.
“ What’s w roug uow !" I inquired.
“Be the hokey fly. sir. an’ it’s myself that's
almost ashamed to tell you. You see Ive been
talktngto Mary, and she did’nt like to part with j
Norah. because she had a look ot me. and be
me soul. 1 can’t afford to part w ith Biddy, be
cause she's the model of her mother: but j
there's little Fandieen. sir. There’s a lump ol
a Christian for you. two years old an’ not a day
more—he’ll never be on* trouble to any one. j
for a* he takes after lus mother, he’ll have the
brightest eve. an’ av he takes after lus father,
he'll have a tri e broad pair of shoulders to J
push his way through the world. Will you
svvao. sir!”
\V;thali my heart.” said I. * it’s a!! thessiuie j
to uie."—and so little PauJteen was left with i
us.
** Ah. ah.” said l to tnvsoif. as l looke i into
his big laughing eyes, -the affair is settled at
last:' but n was'nt. for ten minutes bad scarce
ly elapsed w hen Pat rushed iuto tne cabin ** ith
out sign or ceremony and snatching up the ba
by in his arms, cried out:
It's no use. I've been talking to Mary, an
we can’t do it. Look at hnn. s.r —he’s the
* oungest and best of the batch. You would’nt
have the heart to keep him from us. You see.

A New York Allser*
The Express tells the following extraordina
ry story of a Miser of that city.
The nameless Miser. —He is an old man—a
very old man ; lie is also a strauge man—a ve
ry strange man ; whose history and name are
alike unknown. Ilis business is that of a pa
per scavenger, and the spoil which he collects
in his journeying about the city he disposes of
at the rate of one cent per pound. Many
pouuds does he often gather in a single day ;
hut as it only costs him four shillings per week
to live it is certain that he lays up a few shil
lings at the close of every day. lie com
mences his daily business in the down-town
streets, even when the day is breaking, and con
tinues at his monotonous employment until the
dark hours.
He never goes home to dinner, but, when
hungry, generally purchases a dry crust of
bread, and eats it sitting upon the lower steps
of the Custom house, or the City Hall. Never
does he utter a word to a living soul; and when
the stranger looks upon him he feels disposed
to exclaim—“ what a poor, miserable being!”
He is, indeed, a pitiable object to look upon —
for his leather clothes are glossy and hard with
the accumulated filth of many yeaas; and his
countenance —it is furrowed all over with deep
wrinkles, which no one could believe were
ever moistened by a tear. lie is a hard vis
aged man—repulsive and even terrible to look
upon. For fifteen years have we known this
singular being, and “ even then he was old, he
seems no older now.” There are people in
this great city who have been familiar with his
face for upwards of twenty years, and they alii i in
that he has been a paper scavenger during all
that time. All times, when the the winds of
winter howl through the streets, and also when
the dog-star reigns, does he pursue his laborious
and degrading employment.
And now that we have introduced our hero
to the reader, it is meet that we should men
tion what we know of his actual condition.
He is a miser,—a narrow-minded and mean
miser, who can count his dollars by tens of
thousands. If the reader doubts our word, let
him, when next he meets the miserable man in
the public highway, ask him the time of day,
and he will he promptly answered, on the au
thority of a superb gold watch, hidden in his
filthy vestments A dry crust of bread
and a cast off bone constitute his daily food, and
yet this mail carries the deeds in his pocket,
which prove him to be the proprietor ot at
least five handsome dwelling houses, located in
a fashionable part of the city; certificates of
hank stock and other valuable papers are also
hidden in his pockets. He is a widower, hut
the father of an only daughter, whom he has
established over a superbly furnished house as
the sole mistress and only tenant. She lias all
she needs in the way of household things, and
every luxury of the season, and though her
servants may prepare a sumptuous feast, none
participate with her in its enjoyment. —
Though it would add to her happiness on such
occasions to call in a neighboring friend yet
the privilege ofgiving an invitation is denied
by her father, in the most positive and impen-.
ling is located a ricketty shell of a cabin, re.
tive manner. Inthe rear of this daughter’s dwel
scmbling more the appearance of a sty than a
human habitation, and this is the only dwelling
place of our miser. And now he spends
the precious hours of his leisure life, counting
liis gold and examining the signatures of his
deeds by the light whichrestson his oaken table,
and seldom is extinguished until after the hour
of midnight; and when exhausted with his
strange vigils, carefully does he fasten, with
heavy i**on holts, the door ofhis den and sinks
to sleep upon his bed of rags.
Convicts sknt to this Country. —From a
police report in the New York Tribune, we
learn that a Herman named Christian Beck
stein, was arrested not long since in Ftica for
theft, who confessed that he had been three
times imprisoned in Germany for a similar
crime and had been discharged on condition
that lie would come to this country.
The Ladies. — An Iri-li gentleman remarka
ble for his devotion to the fair sex. once re
marked, “Never he critical on the ladies.—
Take it for granted that they are all handsome
aud good. A true gentleman will never look
on the faults ofa homely woman without shutting
his eyes.”

capacity of Hotel-Keeper. Thankful always lor the
smallest favors, and more than grateful for the patron
age heretofore extended towards hhn, he hopes not
only to retain bis former custom, but from bis unceas

have an unlimited support ( particularly from the
