AUTUMN.

Beautiful is Autumn! How often do
we repea this, and yet, how freshly does
the fact present itself, as the revolving
months bring around the closing year
Spring is lovely, but amidst all its glare
and blossom, languor spreads over the
frame, and so evanescent are its charms,
that we sigh while we enjoy them. But
the gradually a,tempered winds Of Au-
tumn brace the spirits, while the scar
leaves suggest serious, but not unplca-
sing reflections. ns.-When 1e walk be-
meath the trees whose foliage has screen
ed US from the summers sun, and OBJ
serve ut intervals it's discolorcd leaves,
like times first touch upon the clustering
locks Of ripened manhood, the truth that
we all do fade as leaf, comes home to
our bosoms. When "Autumn winds
rushing" drive before them the wihered
garlands Of summer, how apt an image do
they present Of our futile resolutions, our
waverinQ plans Of faded pleasures
blighted prospects--of our own vacilla-
ting course, driven by conflicting pas
sions TO and fro, as leaf
To the inhabitants Of a southern cline
this season is peculiarly welcome. The
strength and energies which have droop-
ed beneath the long continued influence
Of an ardent sun, suddenly revive, and
we hail Autumn as an introduction Ia
winter, which here is shorn Of all its icy
tcrrors, and which is marked as the sea-
son Of cheerful meetings, and reunions
between separated friends. Who has
not felt the renovating influence of m
October day, when the sky is full Of rays
with no cloud to sulIy their brightness
when the air, pure and elastic, seems tt
give a spring to active enjoyment, while
the eye IL never satiatcd with the bril-
liant tints of the varying foliage of the
forest. Nor is Flors's coronet undeco
rated, though the delicate blossoms o.
spring and summer have passed away

THE DRUNKARD's CArECHIsM

We have long thought this TO be de-
sideraiun, considering the quantity Of no.
vel publications. constantly teeming from
The press, and considering too, that the
manly and fashionable vice Of intemper-
ance is ON the increase in ten-fold ra-
ito, in our goodly city. In considera-
ton, we say, Of the need Of some work
ofthis kind, by which the tippler might
make himself acquainted with the iheory
as well as the practice Of his profession,
we have undertaken the Office of cate
chism, and herewith dedicate our feeble
efforts to the friends Of the bottle.
/ Q-What office does a man execute
who is drunkard?
"A man who is a drunkard execu-
teth the Office of beast, both in his
state Of humiliation and exaltation.
Wherein consists drunk ards ex-
altation
"A drunkard's exaltation consists
in his triumph over reason, fear and COM
mon sense, in the prostration of liberty
and honor, and in contempt Of death and
the devil, in loud vocileration against
government, despiteful acclamations a.
gainst public men, evil communications,
outrageous manners, and huzza to a
merry life; besides giving vent to all the
little secrets which in his more sober
moments would be held sacred. And
then the consolatory fact TO reflect upon,
that he is the victim CT vice detes,ed
by society, and which necessity excludes
him from an association of honest men.
Q-Wherein consists drunkard's hu-
milation?
A drunkard's humiliation consist
eth in his being senseless, and that in a
slow condition, by lying under table,
and wallowing in uncleanliness then
follows pain, loss Of appetite, trembling
hands; with idleness, inattention to bus-
ness, poverty and distress; friends neg
lect him, executions vex him, creditors
tease him, sherill's sieze him, and prison
doors open to take him in; sure it is an
evil way, and the end thereof Is sorrow
In addition to the foregoing, we would
remark, that it must be gratifying to such
person to think that he has habituated
himself to vice that inflicts injury 10
the man, without affording any real plea
sure in requital one that has commits
stoned the grim tyrant on an errand of
unrelenting slaughter, and on that de-
stroys both body and mind, and annihi-
lates the noblest virtues of the human
heart. How enviable is the situation oil
a drunkard How reasonable I! How
fitted to sustain the important duties in
cumbent upon a parent, guardian, masteI
or friend !! Rum, rum 1t

and the consequent order OF the English COM
mandcr-in-chief for hOistiDg the Royal Stan
dard half-mast the next day, and for firing

date Of the latest paper, nothing fu'ther APP
pears, in the way of intelligence from Spain
whence it seems fair to infer that no political
occurrence IF moment had taken place in the
kingdom, up to that date.
The paper of the 10th contains the Mani
festo ofthe Qncen Regent, dated 9Th Octoher,
setting forth the principles upon which she
means to govern dnring the minority Of the
young Queen.
I. Religion and the m0narchical form oil
government, the first elements Of existence
for Spain, shall be regarded and maintained in
all their force and purity. Religion as here
used, is explained To be the Catholic Faith ;
and as to monarchy, the Regent says, ~
shall transmit tho sceptre Of Spain to the
Queen, who holds it from the law (, whole aud
entire, without injury or loss, such as the law
has given it to her." The Regent subsequent
ly promises to apply herself I" remedy past
evils and abuses; and invokes thereto the CO.
operation of all Spaniards. "They are all
sons Of the country, equally interested IN her
welfare. I .rilt not kno,o o. past opinions. nor
will listen to present ISLANDERS and Whispers
The Regent adds, that she will invi0lably
keep the treaties with other Powers aud re-
speeding the independence of all, claim the
same measure for Spain.
The most important clauses Of Ferdinands
will had been published at Madrid. His Roy
al Consors was appointed sole guardian OF
the children, and Regent of the kingdom du-
ring the minority, with Council. The Re-
gent is tn take, without, however, being bound
to follow, the opinion Of this Council.
