CAPT. ANDREW LEWIS.

The remains Of Captain Andrew
Lewis, late Of the 3rd Reg't. Of U.
States Infantry, were interd with
Military and Masonic honors on the
3rd inst. 4, Newport. Ky.
The deceased entered the army
during the last war with Great Brit
an, and acquired credit during that
conflict BY his gallant and meritorious
conduct. After having served with
honor TO himself, and usefulness Ia
the country during twenty odd years,
he accompanied his regiment to Flori.
da. and there, like so many other Of
his companions in arms, he fell a vic
tim to the climate.
His regiment caused a monument
to be erected at Newport. to com,
memora,e his worth; and his body
having been transported from Florida
to that place, was yesterday escorted
TO the grave by the several volunteer
companies Of Cincinnati. whose mill,

TEMPERANCE SONG.

Tu1r-"&ots uha kq.'
Sots, whose health and wealth have fed,
Sots, who oft go drunk TO bed,
With empty pockets-brokcn heads,
And whiskey heated brains!
See the cloud of ruin tower!
Now's the day and now's the hour,
Oh, never touch again!
Son of woe! on you we call,
Intemperance's victims all,
Slaves to designations thrall,
Your liberty regain!
On the brink of ruin pause!
Join the noble Temperance cause,
Bind yourselves by wholesome laws,
And never taste again.
By the most ~cndearing ties,
By your furnished children's cries.
By your wife's heart-rendering signs,
We charge you to abstain,
Dash the poisoned cup aside,
And to sign our pledge decide,
And never touch again.
Though we're known DER land and sea,
Though Columbia's sons are free,
Thousands live in slavery,
And wear the tyrant's chain
May he from his seat be hurl'd,
Total .fbsfinece bless the world!
Now the Temperance flags unfurled,
Oh! never touch again.

all is not as it should De. Whisper
suspicion, and let conjecture, with
giant strength, work out the ruin!
He who understands human nature in
its deeper workings of damnable cru
city and selfh ar:ifice. says a certain
shire wd writer, will mark the man
who stabs another under the cloak of
pretended affection. The pretence
has q lie, adds he, on the face of it.
True affection would never whisper
a suspicion ave in the ear oe the one
beloved. Never trust that man who
comes to you whining over his regard
for another, while his tongue is a
drawn sword to wound and kill
meet him promptly with a charge OF
his hypocrisy, and he will shrink

Scholars md a teacher and Boatman
drouned.
1t has seldom, been our lot to re-
cord more dreadful calamity than
one which occurred yesterday in our
harbor-one which has cast an ire
pressibIe gloom over the CITY,
Twenty three persons, most oil them
in the fully ,igor and buoyancy of
youth, were hurried to eternity with
terrible and fearful rapidly.
About 9 o'clock A. NJ. the day be-

Island obtained permission Of the
Superintendent to 90 on a fishing ex-
cursion down the outer harbor in the
School Boat accompanied BY one OF
the teachers, in whose judgment ard
discretion the utmost reliance could
be placed. They had a fine time Of
it. and remained until about three
o'clock, when they started for home,
in the full glow OF youthful hilari'y.
At about four o'clock, when between
Ifnompson's Island and Fort lnde-
pendence the boat was struck ty IL
flaw Of wind ana suddenly upset.
The scene is represented by the
surviving TOYS MS terrible 10 the ex-
IRENE. Most Of the boys and the
teacher and boatman went down I'M
media,ely; but many Of the boys
chung to the boat, until, becoming
weary, they one By M fell off and
found a watery grave with their com
panions. When three Of the boys
only remained clinging TO the boat,

Foster. just arrived from Trinidad,
came up and rescued them. and
brought them up to the city. They

From the New Genesee Farmer
Industry and Economy.

Mr.. CoLMAN.-Encouraged by the
favorable notice you gave the re-
marks forwarded to you last month,
! send you the following observations
on Female Economy, a subject, in my
opinion, not unworthy of attention
in these trying times. There is a
French proverb which runs thus:
"Woman can do every thing, because
they rule those who command every
thing. am not, mol would | advise
any ouc else 10 BE-. 50 vain as to be-
lievc Ills 10 is full extent, but that
such and similar ideas have become
~proverbial, proves that women pos
sess a powerful influence in society;
and We may add. in no country does
that influence prevail to a greater
extent than in our own. AS all ra-
t'onal beings are responsible for the
influence they possess. 10 society and
to 4 higher authority. it may be well
to consider how we have exercised it,
whether 10 meiiorate the condition of
society BY promoting temperance in
all things. industry, and economy,
with their natural consequences, vir-
tue. health. happiness and independ-
ence; or whether its general tenden-
CIV has been 10 embarass and impov-
erish. to promote and encourage e1-
travagancc, folly and likeness with
all their consequences.
These arc important considerations
for women ofevery age, class and con.
dition. nj all times, but especially
nolc; and there are no means so effect
ual to bring them before the public as
through yours and similar journals,
the public advocates Of industry and
economy. | believe it is generally
admitted that the extravaganza which
characterizes u age, the enormous
expenditures of time and money on
mere t~rinkets, is the predominant
cause Of those embarrassments that
press with such deadly weight on this
country at preasant; nor need the re-
mark be limited to this country. 1t
is applicable to others. but our oun
country must be the first object Of
our consideration. No particular
class i, exempt from the charge. All
have lived beyond their means, be-
yond the limits of common sense and
prudence, particularly in our repub.
iican land, where it should be the aim
of all to secure and maintain their
personal indepence as well as the in.
dependence Of their country. Mel
Their can be maintained without true
economy. No person or people who
more than they produce,
can long escape being enslaved some
way or other; nor will the millions,
who are now trodden down by ILL.,
used power, ever attain to freedom,
so loEg as they waist their scanty
means in initiating the extravaganza
of those whom fortune, fate, or other
powers have placed above them. E.
economy. pnb'ic and private, must be
The watchword OF all who aim al true
