Dr.. D. M. REESE -SIR-Atter the
meeting in Forsythe street, Monday even
ing, l was conyersing with lady on the
subjects there discussed, when she told
me l was almost a monomanlac IN my
hatred to alcoholic drink. The following
verses were written to-day, as an excuse
for nv warmth. Pleas, Sir. oblIge me
by handing them 10 Mr.. Hawkins. Of the
Baltimore delegation, requesting him to
present them to his daughter. as she also
may be accused Of the same fault.
ALMIRA.
Go, feel what have felt;
Go, bear what have borne:
q sink meath a blow father dealt,
Aud the cold, proud worlds scorn
Thus struggle on from year to year,
Thy sole relief the scalding tear.
Go, weep as have wept,
DER loved fathers fall
See every cherished promise swept
Youths sweetness turned to gall:
Hopes faded flowers strewed all the way
That led me up to woman's day.
Go, kneel as have knelt:
Implore, beseech, and pray !:
Strive the besotted heart to melt,
The downward course to stay:
Be cast with bitter curse aside
Thy prayers burlesqued-thy tears defied.
Go, stand where have stood,
And see the strong man bow,
With crashing teeth, lips bathed in blood,
And cold and livid brow
Catch his wandering glance. and see
There mirror his souls misery.
Go, hear what have heard
The sobs of sad despair
Az memory feeling fount hath stirred,
And its revealings there
Have told him what he might have been,
Had he the drunkard's fate foreseen.
Go to my mothers side,
And her chrushed spirit cheer
Thine own deep anguish hide
Wipe from thy cheek the tear,
Mark her dimmed eye, her furrowed brow
The gray that streaks her dark hair now:
Her toil-worn frame, her trembling limb :
and trace the ruin back to him
Whose plighted faith, in early youth,
Promised eternal love and truth
But who, forsworn, hath yielded up
Thispromise to the deadly cup,
And led her down, from love and light,
From all that made her pathway bright,
And chained her there, mid want and strife,
That lewly thing, drunkard's wife
And stamped on childhood's brow. so mild.
That whitening blight, drunkard's child
Go, hear, and see, and feel, and know,
All that my soul hath felt or known:
Then look within the winecup's glow
= See if its brightness can atone |:
Think if its flavor you would try,
Ifall proclaimed, IT'S drink and die.
Tell me hate the bowl
Hate is a feeble word
loathe, abhor-my very soul
BY strong disgust is stirred,
Whenever see, or hear, or tell,
Of the dark beverage of hell
