Fro: vi!lr Mountaineer. §oiiK of Temperance. I come on wings of sleepless Jove, From the bright realms on high, With tidings glad, like Noah’s dove, Of Jand that’s firm and dry— Land where the ark of all mankind A safe retreat from floods may find. I bring the olive branch of peace, And offer it to all®; r Who wish my "lory to increase, My enemies to nd!. 1 am the polar star for those Who’ll in the arms of wealth repose. 1 come, the human race to bless, To dry the matron’s tears, , To fill the world witii happiness, Ami quell the Christian’s fears. Let no one here, where freedom reigns, Consent to wear tin* drunkard’s chains. I come to heal the broken heart, And give the starving bread— Wealth, competence and peace impart, And act 3 of kindness spread. The poorest beggar in the land Is ever welcome to mjr hand. For my success I ask no law— I scorn the tyrant’s fame— -1 could not hold the world in awe, While Temperance is my name, If all iny traits were understood, Men would forever call me good. I come with season and with truth, My army to enlarge, Inviting all, from age to youth, To heed tire solemn charge. To handle nothing here below That adds osfcaaiNG to mortal woe. W J.M.C. From tho Temperance Banner. THE REVERSE. by a Washingtonian. i —‘‘t}h ! who can speak The anxious mother's too prophetic woe, Who sees death feeding on her dear child’s cheek, And strives in vain to think it is nit so.” I. TUB MOTH EH. She sal in her grief, a palennd wither ed flower, ns the evening breeze lifted the neglected curls froyv her burning brow. Her slender and fading form, —yet love ly in its decay—bent slightly forward in an attitudo of despair, and, as if the hand of death had wrapped its cold man tie around her-r-she shivered and shrunk back from tho light of day, while all! things else were smiling in gladness under the influence of a bright spring morning. Ah! who can tell the intensity of «•<)- man’s grief! Who can read the agony of the whirling fevered brain, —the faint flutter of tho broken heart, —the anguish of tender affections blighted in their open ing bud! She tildes away like a flower untended in tho rays of a summer sun ! As a vine, deprived el' tho oak round which it clung lor nourishment and sup port is torn and mangled by the beating blast, so is woman. When be in whom she has placed her confidence and her life,! and round whom the warm affections of her heart are turned, becomes a traitor to that trust, she sinks, at once, beneath the storms of sorrow and despair. Oh, wo man ! how inestimable is thy worth ; how strong thy confidence; how unbounded thy love! Ahd how base is man, to destroy such worth ; to betray such confidence; and to blight such love ! * * * * She sat in her grief. No ha nd was there to biniUip the broken heart of the devot ed wife*:—no eve gazed upon the sacred sorrow of tho fond mother. She did not weep—she could not weep—for her con dition so desolate—her anguish so intense —had dried up the fountains of tears, and her heart heaved as though it would burst tho frail barriers which detained ii from its heaven-ward flight. She had; thought herself deserted by all on earth, save one—her sweet little cherub —and that one lay before her in the struggle ot death! 11. THE DYING BABE. And long and patiently had the mother watched her dying babe, and now as the evening flew by and the sun reposed up on his throne of glory in the western sky,| its little iinihs began to grow cold andj stiff'.—lts fast closing eyes were yet turn-; ed upon its mother’s face, and its tiny hands were oft raised to hers. It seemed j as if it were conscious of the grief that raged in the bosom upon which it had so often been pillowed, and from which it hud drawn its gentle nourishment; and it appeared to soothe that anguish byi pointing to the bliss which awaited its de parture from life. And, see ! it smiles. How sweet that smile—and the mother’s heart bounds with hope that its life may yet be spared to cheer her loneliness. But no—that smile yet remains upon its lips, but it breathes no more—its pains are ended forever! And ail nature smiles as if to welcome the departure of the lit tle innocent from a world of sorrow; and the breezes swell, and roll by with a gen tle murmur of gladness, as if to waft its released soul to fields of glory. But while all things without are so joyous how great is the darkness in the mother’s heart. She,bends forward to kiss her smiling babe, butcre she reaches its lips she secs that it is gone; and with a deep drawn groan of anguish, she sinks help- ; less upon its unconscious form. What a | jdreaffful hour is this to her who is depriv ed of the only one that clung to her it: j her distress ! HoW sad and lonely is that j heart! How heart rending is the griei j iof this, moment, and how dismal are the | [dark shadows of the future, as they roll before her mind ! Solitude and despair, must ever be her companions—friendless-; and forsaken, she must complete her ptl-j grimage on earth. And welcome will be j the hour that shall release her from her miserable lot and restore her to her babe ; llow fervently she prays that hour toap-i iproach ! and now her torn heart bleeds to j •think that it is yet far off! Weep not., [disconsolate one, —for that burning brow ' * —that fading form —that fluttering heart —all tell that soon thy sufferings must end, and that thou wilt be borne away to that home where sorrow cannot come ! 11l . THE HUSBAND. And where is he that should have stood !by the lone woman in her deep affliction.; |and soothed the aching, broken heart?! |Where is the ia*thcr that should have! ! watched bv the pillow, of the dying babe, ( and received its last sweet smile, and; weak embrace ? Alas ! to his own shame. ! he is in the midst of revelry and song—j reveling in fiendish mirth and unholy in dulgence. His own brain is swimming’ from the effects of the intoxicating bowl, and his heart is turned to stone, from hav ing expelled all those finer feelings and sympathies which adorn humanity'. He has no thought of home, and the distress of her whom he has sworn to love and protect—tire society of a wife is given up lor that of h&e and unworthy men. He has left nothing at home to cheer or corti fort his unfortunate partner —and thinks not of her cares and sorrows. He seeks only to gratify his own beastly appetite at | the expense of all that man should hold jdear. Day and night finds him in the courts of dissipation, while but n very short time is ever spent with her who needs all his care and attention. What a vast abyss of baseness is the mind of man ! The most tender ties—the most sincere friendships—the most solemn du ties, arc neglected in its search after low, selfish and dangerous gratifications ! Vir tue, innocence, honor, and health are sa crificed for an insane passion—heaven jand hell are forgotten in his career—and I the earth is regarded only as a theatre for his fiendish riots. * * * * The sun is just setting, and at tho moment that the tender bubo breathed its life away and its broken-hearted mother sank over powered upon its form—at that moment, the father was sunk in a drunken stupor at one moment, and the next raging like a niadmam through a crowd of congenial spirits. He would not leave that place for an hour to comfort the devoted wife or save the dying babe—nothing has an interest for that hardened' heart save tilt unnatural business in which he is enga ged. Oh! man, wlint a monster arl thou? the only rational part of the crea-i tion, and still tho most selfish—ungrate ful and dishonest! The only creature capable of enjoying the sweets of life, and vet none neglects them so much as thou ! IV. THE KKVKKSE. But it had not been always thus: that fender wire had not been used to sorrow in her earlier days, and that poor degrn-j ded husband hail been an upright and a useful man. There was a time when he| looked upon the drunkard with horror ; and would not have been one for a world : i but temptation had done its work, and the foul destroyer is now consuming his sys tem. The blood of youth still flowed in his veins—but it. is no longer fresh and regular—his mind was one of the strong est and most improved, but.it no longer puts forth its strength in the right way,; and no longer used its improvement toad- i vantage. Friends were once in readi ness to welcome him to their society— but he is ifggr forsaken :—wealth was once at his command, and brought him every comfort and luxury, but lie is now {poor and has scarcely bread to eat, or jelothes to cover his limbs. He once had | a warm and a bounding heart—but it is nq\v hardened and sluggisb ; once it was ibis delight to afford relief to the sufter iing; but now his young wife is fading away in want and sorrow and still she is j unnoticed. And that wife—how sad is I I lie reverse that has come upon her. Once | | the darling of doating parents —the be [loved of a numerous crowd of acquaint ances—the admired of all eyes: —now deserted and alone—poor and friendless —borne down with grief and misfortune —watching by the dead body of her babe the only tie that had appeared to bind hei to life. Once it had been a pleasure to' serve her —but now none came at her call, —her groans were unheard. Hei anguish unheeded. Oil ! Sad Reverse! Once there was happiness in living—bu‘ now it can only be found in death ! Anr still she loves, —aye, and loves theautbo. of all her misery—while the wretch re pays it with coldness and violence. Oh woman, great indeed, is thy worth ! Anc the man that can thus abuse thy affec tions is unworthy of the name! Deej and dire will be his punishment—-ant great will be thy reward. i, ..!. ..■il.-J—J lIL-IL -HB.""
