Dear Father, drink no more.

Dear Father! " drink no more," pray,
1t makes you look SO sad
Come home, and "drink no more e,o say,
Twill make dear mother glad
Dear Father! think how sick you've been,
What aches and pains you know
Oh drink no more," and then you'll find
A home where'er you go.
Dear Father think of mothers tears,
How oft and sad they flow!
Oh drink no more," then will her grief
No longer rack her so.
Dear Father! think what would become 'N'
Ofme were you to die;
Without father, friend, or home,
Beneath the chilly sky?
Dear father, do not turn away,
Nor think from me to roam;
Oh! drink no more," by night or day;
Now come-let us 60 home.
Dear father! 'sdrink no more," pray,
1t makes you lcok SO sad;
Come home, and g drink no more, ! say,
Twill make that home SO glad!
Thus spake in tenderness the child
The drunkard's heart was mov'd;
He signed the Pledge he wept he smiled
And kissed the boy he loved!

To the friends Of Temperance and the
public generally we now make our appeal
in behalf of this paper. The publisher
feeling it matter Of Importance to the IN
terest of the Temperance cause in the Dis
trct, as well as the general interest of the
cause, and having been, as he conceives,
Providentially placed in situation at this
time when he can mingle this interest with
that of the business men, and thereby rem
der double service to the community, and
still further open medium of communica-
ton by which our principles may be ex-
tended far and wide, at a cheap rate. He
has purchased printing establishment, so
as not only to be able to put daily paper
regularly to press, but also a weekly and
still further, be able to do any other print
ing the public may be pleased to have done;
and he assures them that they shall have
no cause of complaint He has made ar
rangements by which he can devote his
time to the interest af the office and the pa
per; and, having employed Mr.. Charles W..
Fenton, who will be always on the spot, to
conduct the printing, he has no doubt but
that general satisfaction will be given. We
shall make arrangements to have the earliest
news; also the proceedings Of Congress.
We wish all who are indebted for the pa
per up to this time to pay up, as the affairs
of the tri-weekly must be closed. They
will perceive that we are about to give
them better paper, double the number, at
the same price.
While the @CoLUMBIAN FOUNTAIN" will
be devoted to the cause of Temperance, its
columns will be enriched by original articles
on subjects calculated to interest, instruct,
and benefit It's readers. 1t is intended SO to
blend variety, amusement, and instruction,
as that the various tastes of its patrons may
be las far as it is practicable) gratiied.
Commerce, Literature, and Science, and
every other subject of interest," not ineonsis-
tent with Temperance and morality, will re-
ceive the earnest attention of the publishers.
Nothing of sectarian, political, or personal
character will be admitted.
