TEMPERANCE AND TAXES.

A striking exemPli6calion of the relation
which Temperance bears 10 the pauperism
of the country. is shown in the ex perience
of the Stase of Massachusetts during the

Mr. Williams. the Temperance agenr, the
pauper tax OF Massachusetts amounted a
few years ago. to 100000. eight ienihs of
which WAS ascertained 10 be the result of
ardent spirits. Two years ago this tax
was reduced TO sl36,00O; and the las, year
it amounted only 10 S4l ,00O.-Thls great
reduction is TO be accounted for by The
cheering fact, that within these few years.

SABBATH EVENING.
By G. D. PRENTICE

B. u. u. PREN
How calmly sinks the parting sun
Yet twilight fingers still.
And beautiful as dreams of Heaven,
1t ItsIumbers on the hill.
Earth sleeps with all her glorious things,
Beneath the Holy Spirits wings.
Aud. rendering back the hues above,
Seems resting in trance of Love-
Round yonder rock The forest trees,
Ia shadcwy groups recline.
Like nuns at evening bowed in pray e,
Around their holy shrine.
and through their leaves the night winds
blow
So calm and still-their music log.
Seems The mysterious voice of prayer
Soft echoed on the evening air.
And yonder western throng Of clouds.
Z string from the sky,
So calmly move so softly glow,
They seem to Fancey's eye;
Bright creatures Of bstter sphere.
Come down at Lo0n to worship here.
And from their sacrifice of love.
Returning 10 their home above.
The blue isles Of golden sea,
The night. arch hoaing hi gh,
The flowers that gaze upon the heavens,
The bright steams leaping by,
Are living with reiigion-deep
On earth and sea its glories sleep
And mingle with the starlight rays,
Like the soft light Of parted days.
The spirit of the holy eve
Comes through the silent air
To feelings hidden spring, ard wakes
A gush of music there
| And the fair depths of ether beam
| So passing fair we almost dream
| That we can rise and wander through
The open paths of trackless blue
Holly Springs gazette., 1845-03-29
The snirit of the holy eve
Each soul is filled with glorious dreams

Each pulse is beating wild,
And thought is soaring 10 the shrine
OF glory undefiledt
And holy aspirations start
Like blessed Angels from the heart.
And bind-for earth's dark ties arc riven-
Our spirits 10 the gales of Heaven.

a stranger in the metropolis; infrmity

THE FROZEN FAIRY.

A band OF fairies, making flying
tour by moonlight, came suddenly up
on the borders of northern forest.
Alternate storms of snow and rain had
fallen. and left the trees enrobed in
garments of virgin whiteness. The
full moon, shining brilliantly upon the
thick branches, and casting slanting
shadows through the dim aisles of the
wood festooned with icicles and paved
with gems of frost, made the scene one
oldazling spIenGor. The fairies folded
their rainbow colored wings, and gaz-
ed in mute wonder. for never had they
beheld aught so gorgeous. But when
the night blast swept over them, they
shuddered, and bethought them of the
warm light of their own bright halls.
As they were departing, one of the
fairies of the band came and bowed low
before the queen, ,murmuring,"A boonw
"What wilt thou?' said the fairy
sovereign, touching the suppliant with
her tiny sceptre. |.aH
'.Oh! let me dwell in this beautiful
place, gracious queen!" was the request.
'.Foolish one! wouldst thou torsake
thy sister for this cold glittering land?
Then be it SO! FAREWELL And they
sped lightly down the valley. .aaU
The fairy, rejoicing in her new and
splendid lot, danced gaay under the
cleaning forest roof, and sang many a
rich carol among the boughs which
arched over her like jewelled canopy.
The snow spirit listened with adni-
ration to her song, as it rang clear and
sweet through the wood. s.aI
But long ere the moon waned, her
voiced faltered, and her step became
languid. She had forgotten that her
fragile form was made for SUMMER
cline, and might not bear the chill air
which prevaded about her. Slowly
she yielded to the piercing cold, and at
last sank benumbed upon a snow
wreath! Oh! how she longed to nes-
tie in the arms of one of her sisters,
amid the silvery fountains and perennial
flowers Of her own loved and lovely
fairy land. The snow spirits, in their
spangled robes, gathered about her,
but their voices were strange, and their
breath fell like ice upon her cheek.
The stars looked down upon her with
Il cold, distant glance. Flashes Of ra-
dance shot ever and anon athwart the
sky above her, seeming to mock her
agony. All about her was glorious as
the land Of dreams; but what was its
brightness TO her. @ s1 az b.
