136 For the Temperance Fanner. A Formidable Adversary. Gap I portray this direful foe? MetMnks I hear on answer—no; Your efforts will be vain; He entiles at those lie has undone, tie tells of victories he has won, And cojmts his thousands slain. He lurk's aroud fits fireside, Where hnpjriness and peace reside, And *;pours ins venom” there! I He steals away tlie-darling hoy, The fatlrer’sprid’ the toother’s joy. And holds him in lus-snare. fie breaks afiections golden chain. He fires -the eye, distracts the brain, Nor stops liis carnage-there, He mali.es the widow’s heart to moan. He leaves her fpietnlless and alone, To weep in wild despair. He makes the favorite son a slave, And sends him Ip an early grave, Os infamy and shame; His hand has struck the fatal blow, He fills tit ■■ world wjitli Ceaseless woe, 0 would you know his name? His foot has crushed the fairest flowers, That ever bloomed in Udell’s bowers, • And left th‘in to decay; He makes the heart with anguish swell, Making the once lov'd home a hell, l Insatiate prowls for prey. j More fatal than tiie dread simoon, His breath withers the ftirest bloom, Hut yet helilows the iltiine; C)h! would you slum tills mortal foe, J'be fruitful source of needless woe, ■lntejuperuuci in kis name! Isabella. Kncfaillc, I’ntnam Cos., July 1819. TranAjr of Yitll Power. Transference of, vitality, which ap pears to take place when voting persons are habitually pjacctl in contact with tltc rigetl, is not a nursery Tietioh. It 1 is well n!tested; by. corfipetent authori ties. li A not uncommon case,” o!>-; serves Dr. (Japlatul. “ of depressed vital I power, is the young sleeping with the aged. This fact, however explained.- has been long remarked, and. it is wety j known to cv -ry tjnpi’ojudieed observer. I have.on several occasions, mot with J she ceun'er, ;t"f t.f trie Wlwlitgcttsc : i I was a few year* ago ctmsulieil about a pale, sickly, and thin boy, of about four or live years of age. lie appeared to I have no specific ailmfcnt, but there .was a slow and remarkable decline of flesh and strength, and of the energy of the functions—what bis mother very ajrtly termed a gradual blight. After inquiry j into the history of the case, it came out 1 that he bad been a very robust ai.cl pluth-1 brie child up .to bis third year, when ! his grandmother, a very aged person,! took him to sleep with her; that be j soon afterwards lost his gpod■ looks, tmd I that he hau continued to Recline pro: | gross!vely ever since, ’ notwithstanding! medical tr ‘atment. [.’directed hin> to ‘ sleep apart from the aged parent, and preset’! 1 , >d gentle totiios, change of air, &c. : Ihb recovery was rapid. But it is not in children only that debility is induced by this mode of vital power.— \ Young females married to edd men suf- | fer in a similar maimer, altlfobgh s-1- i dom to sojgroat an extent; and in.-stan-.l ees have conn to my know letlge, where ! they have suspected rhe ; causo of their | debilitated Vlatc. These fads are often ‘ well known to Hr? aged theiifse.lvps,; who consider ihe'indulgence favorable to longevity, an I fit rtilty illustrate the’ selfishness which in some persons, in- i creas'-s with {heir year-;.” Evtjry mfcdieal practitioner is well aware of the fact, timt parents general ly Sara advised not to allow their infants to sleep, with tiged persons. Puhc.h trsks and answers a question : | “WJiat is better than presence of mind j in a r.’lway accident V’ “ Absence of! body. ’ ’ ORGAN OF THE SONS OF TEMPERANCE AND STATE CONVENTION, I High and low Classes.—The fol- I lowing is from the Philadelphia Ledger: “A high and low class’? certainly do exist in all cities. But who constitutes i the high class ? Why the Orderly, tiie ! sober, the quiet; the law loving and the peace-preserving citizens,. without re-; ierrtice to rich or door* Were it other wise, society could iiot hang together | for an hour. Who constitute tiie . 10. class” but the law-breakers,-‘the i : pqaee.disturher's, flic rioters, the braw-! ! liug hiebi'iateVand the.incowtsiblcloaf- j ! era- Not tiie poqf, furHUere are at! i least as many pdoramohg the soher'and , j quiet portion of the community, as rich. The distinction of “ high and, loiy,” in | classes, when properly defined, involves ho invidious sarcasm, ignomiuous de ! gradation on the poor. Who cqnstitutc ‘the polioe? ‘Plio poor. Who make j.up the ranks of the militia?” The poor. ,If the Sheriff calls out his possee com- I mitatus, who” obeys the call,? Not the ; rich but the poor. Who fight the bat | ties of the country in war? The poor. Who produce property, and then pro tect it, but the poor ? We Five but two classes, the idle and industrious, and the latter only discharge all the .;dutiesof good citizens. ’ ■ , ! He who is passionate and hasty is gen : erally honest. It’s your cool, dissem bling hypocrite, of whom ypu should beware. It has been Suggested that the best boaidof health in the world is the wash board. t i __________________________ i PAYMENTS FOR THE BANNER. j Rev P N Maddux, Nov 51; E I\l Burton, Ju- j ly 50; Rev Wyclic Jackson, Nov ft) ; Thbitins .
