NEW ORLEANS, March 18th, 80.

DEAR Sra - Our Legislature, now in ses-
sion, has passed the Temperance bill, pla.
clng the license or no license in the hands
Of The people, to be regulated by our local
authorizes - the Mayor, City Council, and
the Police Jury Of the parishes.
Our three municipalities, and the city of
Lafayette, is now consolidated into one city
New Orleans.
An election will take place on Monday,
the 22d inst. for Mayor, Alderman, and As
sistant Alderman. Both political parties
have made their nominations, lin cefee hOs.
seS, as usual.) The Independent reformers
have also made their nOminaLiOns--they
refused to make their nomination in cofee
house, and selected more appropriate place
the American Theatre. The Sons and
friends OF Temperance will support the In
dependent ticket. 1t is composed mostly
OF temperance men, and friends of the new
temperance movement in this State An
other election will take place on the 18th Of
April, to elect delegates to the State Con-
yention to frame a new Constitution and
at the same time vote will be taken on the
question Of license or no license. At that
lime, we expect to be more fully organized
to carry the no license question. We, as
temperance men, expect to take an active
part in the nomination of candidates at
the same time, we will petition the Conven-
ton to pass similar actto the one in your
State, Ohio. We want it in organic Law,
to prevent any further agitation of the Ii
cense question in the Legislature.
We are ahead of all other southern States

He lifted the cofin-lid, and caused the light
of his torch to fall upon the dead monarch's
face. Then, probably, his mind went back over
all the marvellous events that had brought the
hereditary king of England to this dishonored
coffin, and had raised himself an humble indi-
vdual, to the possession Of kingly power. He
was king, though without the empty title or
the glttering crown.
"Why was it," said Cromwell to himself-or
might have said-as he gazed at the pale fea-
tures in the coffin" Why was it, that this
great king fell, and that poor Noll Cromwell
And, indeed, why was it?
King Charles had fallen, because, in his man
hood. the same rs when child, he disdained to
feel that every human creature was his brother
He deemed himself superior being, and fan
cied that his subjects We're created only for q
king to rule over. And Cromwell rose, because.
in spite of his many faults, he mainly fought
for the rights and freedom of his fellow men ::
and therefore the poor and the oppressed all
lent their strength to him.

A nIIsER's REQUEST.

A Mr., Neild, recently deceased has be-
queathed 10 Queen Victoria nearly the whole
of his property. 1t consists chiefly Of land,
scattered in various counties, and is valued
at half million sterling. Nield was bar.
rister at law, and died in Chelsea, aged 70
years. He was possessed of an immense
fortune, but was of very eccentric and penu-
rious habits. AT the death of his father,
thirty years since, he came into possession
of about f25O, 900; which sum had moi been
touched up TO the period of his death. The
deceased was never known TO wear n great
coat, and would not allow his dress Goa, 10
be brushed, as it would take OF The nap and
deteriorate its value. His appeanrce and
manners led strangers 10 imagine that he
was in the lowest verge Of penury, and their
compassion was excited in his behalf which
he never failed 10 accept when il led to an
exhibition OF their benevolence. For some
years before his death, Mr.. Nied scarcely
allowed himself the common necessaries
and comforts of life, and has left poor old
housekeeper, who was with him for more
than twenty.sx years, without the smallest
provision or Acknowledgement for her protract-
ed and far from agreeable or remuneraliye
services. A few days before his death
the deceased told one of his executors that
he had made most singular will but as the
property was his own he had done as he
pleased with it.

THE IRISH APPLE GIRL.
By LIEUT.. MURRAY.

| At the last season, Newport was one OF
the most lively and spirited that was ever
enjoyed at watering place. Every part
OF our Union contributed its quota TO make
up the Gordon OF beauty and fashion that
assembled nightly to participate in the gay
dance, the musical soiree and the fancy
ball. There were some ladies Of rank also
from abroad, and altogether Newport was
the centre Of fashion and beauty for the
time being. Come with US now, in ina
einatlon, into one Of these gay assemblies !;
the band is dscoursing its rich tones, and
feet as light as fairies tread, are gliding in
the mazes Of the dance. At this moment,
a couple latigued with the exertions OF a
polka, have stepped one side from the dane
ing half, and sitting at the door of the with
drawing room, are criticizing the dancers.
They are a fair couple; the lady is not
more than twenty-three, and the gentleman
three or four years her senior. She is a
very dark brunette, with a speaking eye,
and the unmistakable belonging of south
erner. Her fine figure had been developed
under tropical cline, and she spoke and
acted with an energy and fire, though fine
! ly tempered by distiague air of refine
ment, that was peculiarly Southern. Her
companion showed himself a gentleman OF
| high breeding, and evidently a Norherner.
/ His high, bold forehead, full blue eye, and
classical profile, bespoke intelligence and
native power, while his manner bore token
OF the tendeTest interest in her by his side
"How charmingly Mrs. Warland looks
tonight, Mr.. Burditt, don't you think so -
said the lady, referring to the person of an
/ elegant looking woman who was dancing
the mazurka at that moment with an Eng
liSh nobleman.
"Charming," repeated Mr.. Burditt, thus
addressed by his partner, "With one ex-
ceptlon," he answered, 81 think her the
finest woman ever saw'
"Do you know her, Mr.. Burditt 7"
"Well-and few Of those with whom I
am acquainted possess such charms OF mind
as well as of person. You must have heard
her converse is she not delightfully."- en-
tertaining2" I"
''She is indeed, and the star of every cir
Gle that she graces. Mrs, Warland must
be nearly forty, and perhaps there are few
bellies in their first season so attractive"
AT this moment the lady of whom they
We're speaking, glided gracefully out of the
dance and seated herself in an alcove o
the hall where she was at once surrounded
by the elite OF the company.
"Dear Miss Lansly," said he whom W.
have introduced to the reader as Mr.. Bur
dit, "appropos of this leisure moment, le
me speak TO you upon the subject we wer,
discussing yesterday"

ORIGINAL POETRY.
FoR THE AMERICAN.
THE FIRE.

Twas midnight deep, or thereaboui,
When evil spries, It's said, are out
Their airy ramblcs taking
Many had sunk in soft repose,-
And some had just begun to doze-
Halt sleeping, and hall waking.
Others, perchance, lay wide awake,
Conlriving plans, the best TO make,
Some claims, OF title stronger;
The debtor, wondering how he'd meet,
The DIM that met him in the street,
And said, He'd wait no longer.
When, bursting on the ear of night
Such horrid din, as well might fright
Sonnd sleepers from their slumbrr,
The startling cry of Frc is heard,
All quarters echo back The word,
From voices without number.
Starting, afriohted, from his bed,
The drowsy sleeper lifts his head,
lGquiripg "what's The matter ~
Whence does this hubbub al! procecd?r
A question vainy asked indeed,
Mid such confusing clatler,
AT length 10 every drowsy brain,
And now begins the furry
For pants and boots each gropes around
Bnt who, these garments, ever found
When he vas in a hurry!
AT length cqnipt-or partly So
Through stree, and ally swift they go,
With laudible desire
Each striving to ouirun the lest,
Md all rpSnivpI IN din thnir haCt
In putting out the fire.
But twas provoking, in tn extreme,
To ppt 10 iliahl some pleasant dream
With such precipitation,
Hurried from bed-but partly dressed-
Such willing zeal TO manifest,
On such mean occasion.
Behold the cause Of all the noise
Some wicked, mischief loving boys
For New-Year's recreation
Had, on corner, rudey placed
a binding, that had better graced
A more retired location.
This holding ont chance for fun,
Could not pass, unimproved, by some
Who in such sport delighted
Anxious TO bring the affair TO light,
Slraightway resolved, that every night,
To have the building lighted.
The joke now ont, and pas! the fright
Some loamed with rage-some laughet
outright
AT snch Il termination,
But all Sunk back again 10 bed,
From which they in snch haste had fed
Thus ends the CONTEMPLATION.
