Of Paddy o'Rory, a.aa..,

Now Paddy. when sober,
-. Was mild as October,
And kind to his children and vile;
But. when he'd been drinking,
o then, am thinking,
They had little peace of their lille.
Whoever came near him
Had reason to fear him,
When liquor had heated his brain;
For boxing and fighting
R. lie took such deligh, in
AS ifthere were pleasure in pain.
Iaaa Such cursing aud swearing,
And tipping and tearing,
.Twould make your ears Jingle 10 hear !;
He reeled and he staggered,
lie clustered and staggered.
And challenged whoever came near.
His money he wasted,
e. To ruin he hasted,
A pallet Of straw was his bed;
His clothes were all rattered,
His house was all shattered,
His children were begging for bread,
O. such was The story
t.tG OF Paddy O'Rory,
Till once kind gentleman came,
A paper presented,
And Paddy consented,
And wrote on that paper his name.
What magic was in it!
From that blessed minute
O'Rory became new man;
- - In boxing and fighting
,.,..es No longer delighting,
- He works just as well as he eau.
No longer he stassers,
- No longer he swaggers,
Ne longer he curses and swears;
His frolcs are onded.
His cottage is mended,
Aud decent apparel he wears.
s There's peace in his dwelling,
!g.s. And little ones telling
Their love TO father so kind;
}zs His wife is coufessing
49, Her gladness, and blessing
The day when that paper he sigued.
.sg,. Now what was that paper?
.z.,.v-sThat wonderful paper?
The Temperance Pledge was the same.

following by Mr.. Chase:

STEAMBOAT NAVE ALTON ON THE MISS.

and article on the change that has taken
place IN the navigation of the Mississippi
since the introduction of steamboats,, when
the passage of ships ascending the river
through all lis crooked turns from the Blize
to New Orleans, usually occupied from FIVE
to thirty days, and when barges which made
the voyage to the mouth of the Ohio river,
required from eight 10 ten weeks for its per-
Torrance.
The first steamboat employed in trade on
the Mississippi, was called the New Orleans
of New Orleans. She was built at Plttsburg
in 1911, and enrolled and licensed for the
coasting trade at the port of New Orleans,
in 1918 This boat was lost in 1914. From
1913 to 1923, eighty>nine different Bodis
were enrolled at the port of New Orleans.
/ This rapid increase of steamboats, had veIy
soon its natural tendency of reducing freights
During the year 1922, the arrivals of steam.
boats in New Orleans were 3I9, Since that
time the number has rapidly increased from
: year to year. During the year ending the
Slst Of August, 1916, the arrivals were q
