“MtCH TET REMAINS CKSCHO.”
DIRGE or THE DRINKER.
Brother, spare a while your liquor, la; your do
zenth tumbler down;
He has dropped the star of honor —on the field
of his renown 1
Raise '.he wail, but raise it softly, lowly bending
on your knees,
Should you find it more convenient, you may h e
c"np, if you please 1
Charles-Edward, do be quiet 1 let your hip-hurra
ing sink,
Be your manly accent* clouded, ha f with sorrow,
half with drink!
L ghtlv on the sofa pillow lift hi* hand from efif the
floor;
See how calm he s'cep*, unconscious at the deadest
nail in door!
Widelv o’er the earth I've wandered ; where the
‘drink most freely flowed,
I have ever reeled tire foremost, foremost to the
beaker strode. (
Deep in shady Cider-cellars I have dreamed o er
heavv wet,
Bv the fountains of Damascus I have quaffed the
richest sherbet,
Regal Montepulciano drained beneath its native
rock, . , ,
And on bright Johannis mountain frequent htc
euped o’er my hock ;
I havs baihed in bultsof Xeres deeper than did
e’er Monsoon,
Sangaree’d with bearded Tartars in the Mountains
of ihe Moon;
In beer sivilling Copenhagen I have drunk your
Danesman blind,
I have kept my feet in Jena, when each bursch tn
earth declined;
Glass f-r glass in fierce Jamaica I have shared the
planters’ rum ,
Drank with Highland dhuinewasse’a till each gib
bering Gael grew dumb;
But a stouter, bolder drinker — one that loved hi*
liquor more
Never vet did I encounter than our friend upon i
the floor! :
Yet the best of us are mortal, we to weakness all
are heir!
He has iallen who rarely staggered; let the re t
of us beware!
We shall leave him as we found him —lying
where his manhood fell
’Mong the trophies of the revel —Gtr he took his
tipple well.
Better ’t were we loosed his neckcloth, laid his
throat and bosom bare,
Pulled his Hobies off, and turned his toes to taste
the breezy air.
Throw the sofa cover o’er him, dim the flaring of
the gas,
Calmly, calmly let him slumber; and, as by the
bar we pass,
We shall bid that thoughtful waiter place beside
him, near and handy,
Large supplies of soda-water, tumblers bottomed
well with brandy;
So, when waking, he shall drain them, with that j
deathless ihirst of his.
Clinging to the hand that smote him, like a good !
’un, as he is!

THE 8E V BOY.
ir MRS. SISOVRKET.
*• Up the main top mast ho !
The storm was loud,
And the deep midnight muffled up her head,
Leaving no rav. By the red binnacle
1 saw the sea-boy. His young cheek was pale,
And his lip trembled. But he dared not hear
That hoarse command repeated. So he sprang.
With slender loot, amid the slippery shrouds.
He, oft, by moonlight-watch, had lured my ear
With everlasting stories of his home
And of his mother. His fair brow to’d tales
Os household kisses, and of gentle hands
That bound it when it ached, and laid it down
On the soft pillow, with a curtaining care.
And he had sometimes spoken of the cheer
Tnal waited him, when wearied from his school, ,
At winter’s eve he came. Then he would pause !
For Ids high-beating bosom threw a chain
O'er his proud lip, or else it would have sighed
A deep remorse for leaving such a home.
And he Would haste away, and pace the deck
More rapidly, as if to hide front me
The gushing tear. I marked the inward strife
Unquestioning, save by a silent prayer,
That the tear wrung so bitterly, might work
The sea boy’s good and wash away all trace
Os disobedience. Now, the same big (ear
Hung like a pearl upon him, as he climbed
And grappled to the most. I watched his toil.
With strange foreboding, till he seemed a speck
Upon the ebon bosom r*f the cloud.
And I remembered that he once had said,
" l fear l shall not see my home again;"
And sad the memory of those mournful words
Dwelt with me as he passed above my sight,
Into the thick darkness.
The wild blast swept on,
The strong slop tossed.
Shuddering. I heard a p'unge
A heavy plunge gurgling ’mid the wave.
I shouted to the crew. In vain ! tn vain !
The ship held on her way. And never more
Shall that poor, delicate sea boy raise his head
To do the bidding of those roughened men,
Whose home is on the sea. And never more
May his fond mother strain him to her breast, !
Weeping that hardshrpthus should bronze the brow
To her so beautiful nor the kind sire
Make glad, by his forgiveness, the rash youth
Who wandered from his home, to throw the wealth
Os his warm leelings on the faithless sea.
Vagaries of (he Moon. —Thomas Moon
was arrested on Friday night, for being
eclipsed by a cloud of liquor.
• What’s your name?’ said the watch
man.
• Moon,’ said Tom.
‘You can’t shine, Mr. Moon!’ said the
watchman.’
‘I can’t, and that’s a fact.’ said Tom,
‘though. I have filled my horns , ami empti
ed them too ; but give me a hand—help
me to rise. You know what Byron says:
The Moon is up!
By heavens! a glorious sight!’
• Yes, I knows all that,’ said the watch
man, 4 but it’s no matter whether I does I
or not, ’cause it aim in the ordinance—
rt aint nothing but poetry, and rav old
’ooman always told me as how poetry is
rvousense; so come along to the watch-i
house, Mr. Moon.’
1 cry quarter,' said Moon.
‘You shall get a quarter; that is, three
calendar months —in the workhouse,’ said
the watchman.
‘ Then you extinguish the light of my
prospects for ever,’ said Moon.
‘ Not a bit of it said the watchman; ‘for
instead of putting you out, I put you in.'
And so, without saying more on the sub
ject, he took off Moon to the calaboose, a
place where he had often been before.
Mr. Moon got his third quarter in the
work-house from the Recorder.
THE EXITED STATES MAGAZINE,
A'ul Democratic Review, for IS4-5.
JOHN L. O’SULLIVAN, EDITOR.
THE Sixteenth Volume of the Democratic Re
view commences with the present mimtier. The
Publisher cannot omit tlie occasion it nfiords, to
congratulate its readers and friends, upon the great
victory recently achieved bv the cause of their
common principles; a victory not less important in
its consequences, than glorious in its triumph, after
! the unprecedented severity of the recent contest of
j parties. Originally estab ished at a period of the
deepest depression of the Democratic cause, in the
memorable year of 1837, this Review has ever ta
ken an active, and, it is believed, not ineffective
| part, in the long and keenly contested battles of
j opinion, by which the country has been ever since
I more or less deeply agitated. Having freely shar
ed the worst disasters, the gloomiest depressions,
may it not fairly be allowed to ask and hope to
share now the benefit of the triumph and prosperi
j ty, of the Dermurscy of the country? It has sus
tained itself through considerable portions of that
; period, only by large pecuniary sncrifices caused by
ihe delinquencies of too many of its subscribers—
j through seasons when zeal for the principles to
| which it was devoted could alone afford a motive
| fir its continuance at so much unrequited expen
diture of both money, time and intellectual effort.—
bs Publisher now 'eels fairly entitled to invoke nn
1 active and generous friendliness of support, on the
part of its subscribers and the intelligent members !
of its Party generally, (or its support. Our oppo
nents have recently organized extensive arrange-;
men:* for the establishment of a similar work on
the other side of our great division of parlies—“to 1
counteract,” as it is said, “Ihe pernicious influence
of the Democratic Review.” F.stabiished under
imposing auspices of eminent po itical and literary
names in the ranksof our opponents, and doubtless
to be sustained by the overflowing means possessed
by that party, to sustain a work of that character,
it thus holds out the prospect of an honorable rival
ry, which the Democratic Review cheerfully ac
cepts, but which the Democratic Pariy must libe
rally contribute to enable it to maintain, in a man
ner worthy of that party, and of its good, great and
glorious principles. The way to serve it, and to
aid in this purpose, is, at once tn remit promptly
the debts which are its just and well-earned due,!
and to take some degree of active interest to pro-'
cure it additional advance paying subscribers.
The following are among the contributors to this !

THE COLUMBIAN MAGAZINE,
FOR 1845*
EDITED BY
JOHN INMAN AND ROBERT A.«». T
Twelve Copies to Clubs'for ®ij. T<
At the close of his Second Volume tthe M
zine having been commenced on the* i fi r nl.?'
ary 1844, the publisher find himself' irreiiinw'
called on to express the satisfaction sad *
with which he has been filled by the brillfant anH
; unexampled success that has attended his cn6.
| vote to win the public favor. Notwithstanding”;
difficulties, disappointments and vexations ih».
; most invariably followed the establishment of i. Li*
: periodical, tn the production ol which there
be the harmonious co-operation ofmanvhead.. i
many hands-notwithstanding occasional shorten!?
mgs especially in the picloral department
no care or diligence could avert and no Ma
ture prevent, the Columbian -Magazine has g,ll''
steadily increasing tr support and popularity fm!
the opening number, and if the unbought unsold
led testimony of the press may be received « „’*
swayed partiality and unbiassed by friend,hin ih.'
efforts ol contributors and editors hare been mi* *
laetorv to the public and accepted ns fulfilling
The publisher undertook the work with a fi,
conviction that the great city ol New York was .t
best and the true home for Magazines of g. n , r ,?
i literature; that notwithstanding the failure ofm
! ny previous attempts to establish such a work the*'
j could lie no impossibility of success with sufficient
j capnal, perseverance and the right system of man _
agement both by publisher and editor; stimalat.rf
! by this conviction he embarked in the enterprise
! ,l,e result ° r,he firsl year has proved that hi, iudir
meat was correct. J K ~
It has long ceased to be necessary, or reason.
He that we should speak of the Columbian u,n
experiment substantially tried. We feel otfrarfvc.
upon as firm a basis as any similar journal in th.
world. Our principal cares now regard not
much the securing what ground xve have gained
(lor we consider this sufficiently secure) as the tr
tension of our sphere olaction'and
much, even, the mere enlargement ofour'sabscriD
tion-list, as the most suitable modes of catering L
the amusement (and shall we say occasionally f„ r
the profit r) ot our subscribers in the present and
in the luture—the many whom we have, and the
many more wc shall undoubtedly have as the time
roils on.
W e have made arrangements which will enable
us to present our friends with embellishments of
very superior taste, style and finish. In (his res
pect it is our firm purpose, if possible, to outvie ail
competition. Our music and engravings we con
fidently lielteve, will not be equalled—verv certaia-
Iv they shall not be surpassed in real merit' bv tli<«e
of any ot her magazine. VV e propose to give each
month, two or more superb engravings, indepen
dently ol two pages of ritusic bv the most eminent
composers, and plate of authentic fashions.
Regarding the literary and editorial conduct ot
the Columbian, the publisher 'does not feel called
upon to say more than a very few words. The
general management of this department is confided
to the gentleman who has hitherto given abundant
evidence, not only of the highest ability to put
forth a meritorious m igazine and one exactly adap
ted to the tastes of all readers, with whom is asso
ciated another gentleman of ability and experience.
The publisher therefore, has every confidence
that what lias already been done for the literary
value of this journal, will be done again. We are
perfectly willing that our future in this respect
should he estimated hy our past. The subjoined
list of those who have furnished articles fur the
Columbian during the by gone year, will satisfy,
we teal assured, ihe most fastidious, that we are
resolute to spare, in no particular, either exertion
or expense.

" '*li the aid of these contributors (ofwhom it i*
needless in say one word in the wav ofcommrnda
j 'ion and id numeroi;* others perhapse equally meri
torious i| less celebrated, who have promised ti»
their support, we flatter ourselves that as a literary
j work, the Columbian need be under no apprehen
sion of being excelled.
Bill what we have done is before the pubiic, who
1 will not fail to judge of us with impartiality; and in
j respect to what we intend to do, it will be both wt
j seraml more becoming (al:hough less fashionable
j not to boast. We may be permitted to assureour
j friends in brief, however, that we have matured
; numerous plans (for the Third Volume) with
| which we feel confident they will be pleased. It is
i our purpose to put fiirth every energy, and it will
! be no fault of our own if the Colombian should not
: he found a! least equal to any magazine, of any
j class or price in America.
