EULOGIUM ON RUN.
Arise! ys pimpled, dppIiDg race, arise!
From every town and village tavern come!
Show your red noses and o'erHOwing eyes,
And help your poet chaunt the praise Of rum.
The cordial drop, the morning dram sing,
The midday toddy, and the evening sling.
Hail mighty rum! and by this geaeral name
call each species--whskey, gin, or toddy,
THE kinds are various, but the effect the same;
And 90 choose a name that's short and handy.
For, reader, know il takes a deal Of time
To make a crooked word lie smooth in rhyme.
Hail mighty rum how woRd'rous is thy power!
Unwarmed by thee how would our spirits fail,
When dark December comes with aspect sour,
And sharp as razor blows the norther" gale!
And yet thou ut grateful in that sultry day
When raging Sirius darts his fervid ray.
Hail mighty rum to thee the wre,ched Av,
And find a sweet oblivion Of their woes;
Lock'd in thy arms, as in the grave they lie,
Forget their kindred, and forgive their foes.
And Le,hes stream ESQ much extoll'd ny some
II ancient times) shrewdly guess was rum.
Hail mighty rum! what thy power Withstand
Even lordly reason flies thy dreadful face,
And health, and jpy and all the lovely hand
=. OF social virtues, shun thy dwelling place.
For in Whatever breast it rears its throne,
Like Turkish nonarchs, rom must rule alone.

SELECTED POETRY.

These lines illustrate an antique Gem-a wo-
man sits in serious and earnest contemplation,
gazing upward at household god:-
Domestic love! not in proud palace halls
Is often seen thy beauty TO abide;
Thy dwelling is in losly cottage walls,
That in the thickets of the woodbine hide;
With hum of bees around, and from the side
of woody hills some little bubhng spring,
Shining along thro' banks with harebels dyed;
And many bird to wal bic on the wing,
When morn her saffron robe DER heaven and Garth
doth fling.
} Oh, love of loves!-to thy white hand is given
of earthly happiness the golden key!
Thine the joyous hours Of winters even.
when the babes cling around the fathers knees
And thine the voice, that on the midnight sea
Melt. the rude mariner with thoul hts OF home,
Peopling the gIocn tcith all he longs 10 see.
Spirit, Pve built a shrine; and thou hast come,
And ON its altar cios'd- forever clos'd Thy plume.

N.w OrIenas.--A very pleasant writer IN the
Boston Courier, gives the following lively de-
scription Of New Orleans:
of New Orleans Can tell you but little, for
NV stay there was short, owing to preference
for other places. The ancient city is entirely
French in its narrow streets, and its low tiled
wooden buildings. its homely men, good looking
women. and its language. In the modern part
of the city. and where the Americans have made
;nroads, blocks of brick buildings have rIsen-
like the issue of Banquo, with writ ofeJectment
unon the style of the 18th century; but the work
of regeneration or reform, will not be completed
mill the Americans become a majority aud get
the government into their own hands-a doubt
Gnl neriod-for the elections it is believed, are
during the summer, and the Americans sacrifice
the {. Glorious rights of elections" to fastldlous
notions about the climate. Had they the philo-
sophy of Sir Lucious O''rrigger, they would re-
member that there Is 'very snug lying IN the
Abhey. in case of an unfortunate iiquefaction. 1t
requires but little examination to ascertain that
there's more fear than danger.
The good citizens have the advantage of Ca
mite of old, for they have stopped tho ''Proud
waves, of the Mississippi by means OF high ex-
nsns;ve leyee. The whole city is so low that iii the
snr;np. the water runs constantly from the river
20 lake Ponchartrain, or the Swamp III the rear.
In 1918 the water made what is termed sore
vase, aboat six miles above, and overtiowed the
greatest portion of the town; should the same
hipy occur again. the march OF the whole place
rewards the Balize will be more rapid than agree
shle the parable of the house built upon The
sand Is literally true in more than one respect
New Orleans is better lighted than any of our
cities. by means of large lamps with rehectors,
hung in the centre Of the streets, ut every cor.
nor in addition to which it has often been noticed
