The Printer.

The night grows late, the streets
are hushed-the moon-beams fieck the
deserted pavement-and sleep strews
its slumberous poppies over the in
habitants of the silent city. All are
at rest save the printer, who is busy
at his case.
Dreams, lovely as winged chorubs,
hover about the repose of man and
maiden; visions as pure as first lilies
and beautiful as the matron and the
child-but to the printer all is reality,
toll and weariness.
How nimbly and cheerfully does
he adjust the faithful types, as if he
took ono note of time AS if the
duties that are wearing out his life
were more diversion than laborious
ayocation. But amid their monoto-
nous discharge, believe us, the printer
thinks Of home and sweet rest, and
signs within himself for the better lot
of which others are possessed. And
yet there is no repose for him, though
the night tramps on, and the iocund
dawn will soon appear.
Why do his motions grow less rap
idl why move his fingers in so delib-
crate and mechanical way? Whence
is the smile that fingers at his lip, like
the first sunbeam at the gates of
morning? There is a gentle presence
at his side-an eye, blue as violets,
glancing into his own--an accent,
sweet as music, enhancing his ear,
and reaching his very heart.
1t is but a moment-it is only q
revery-it did not even win him from
his occupation--it only caused his
hand to falter, not to cease-the print-
er awakens to busy toll again.
Yc who receive your sunrise favor.
ite, and wander, perhaps listlessly,
over its pages, remember that it is
the fruit of toll which was active and
untiring while you were quietly sleep.
ing-that your convenience and com
fort are bought with the price of wea.
Finess.
There is an f'eleetric chord, /" whicl
!. being charged with sympathy, viii
$ carry the gentle burden even to th,
g most distant hearts. We bespeak il
! agency in behalf Of the faithful print

An Unnatural Son

The following from the Cleveland
Plaindealer, is a sorrowful picture of
the degradation into which whiskey
will plunge its victims. From such
scenes humanity turns with horror,
and upon the man who encourages the
horrd traffic, out of which these evils
flow, justice calls loudly for vengance ;
A most disgrace(ul and revolving
outrage has just come to light this
week. In one of those miserable
purlieuS which inlest our city, reside
family consisting of an old widow
woman, with a son of some Is or 90
years, who has two wives with him,
another widow whose husband was
lost on the propeller Oneida, and her
three small children. On last Satur-
day they were almost starving-had
not food, fuel or money-were in the
very lowest pit Of poverty. In the
discharge Of his duties, Mr.. jeremiah
Ellsworth, Fire Warden, found oc-
casicn to enter the building where this
miserable family we're DWELLING
Finding them in such poverty, Mr.. E
did all in his power to relieve them,
and was enabled, through the kind
ness of a number of cilizens, to pro-
vide for their wants so fully, that on
Monday he left them happy and COM
Portable. 1t appears that Michael
the son, is yonng man of intemper.
ate habits, and on Monday night he
came home drunk. His mother took
him to task for his debaucheries, in
severe terms, whereupon he attacked
her; he, the son, abused his OWL
mother in the most brutal manner
Her head was most severely bruised
she was kicked in the side, her lef
eye blackened, and one or two teetl
kicked out, and were afterwards picked
up from the fooi! On learning thi
Mr.. E. had the young man arrested
He was yesterday sent up to Jail, Their
to await his trial. This is anothe
result Of the damning cup of intoxi
cation.

The happiness and best interests Of
our sex are continual jeopardy, while
the traffic of Rum is tolerated within
the borders of our State and we
claim the right to be heard upon a

those who surround us. Combined
effort and harmonious concert of ac-

Drops and atoms are the sport of the
idle wind but combined, they are the
ocean and the world. The object
meets the cordial approval of the
leading Temperance papers, and the
best minds in our State, in every case
where their attention has been called
to it; and we earnestly hope it will
secure the hearty response and per-

A large majority of the intelligent
people Of Ohio having for several years
regarded the liquor traffic as a great
moral, social, political and national
evil, have importuned their successive
Legislatures for legal enactment
against this terrible outrage upon the
rights of society. These petitions
and prayers, coming up from every
section of the State, have been to a
great extent disregarded.
That the Legislative, judicial, and
executive arms Of Government might
no olongerbe thrown around the iniq1it-
Gus traffic, hundreds Of thousands pc
titioned the late Constitutional Con-
vention to insert a provision in our
organic law to forever prohibit its IL
cense by Government. Although this
was the only subject about which the
people expressed their wishes, that
body refused to act. They did, how
ever, provide for a separate vote Of
the electors, which should determine
whether the proposed measure should
be part of the constitution. A large
majority of the electors did vote in
favor of the proposition, and The no
license otaesse ~beeeme n part Of the
fundamental law of the State. The
divorce of the Government from the
guardianship and nurture of the Ii
quor traffic was solemnly proclaimed
by the freedom of Ohio. Thus far
we have done nobly. But the enemy
is not conquered-only dislodged from
his legal entertainments. The army
Of liquor makers and vendors are
making desolating war upon the in
dividual, social, agricultural, mercan-
tile, educational, religious and politi-
cal interests of our entire population.
Multiplied thousands of memorial
lists have sought from the Legislature
now in session a prohibitory law,
and this subject is now temporarily in
their hands, and patriots, philanthro-
pists and Christians, as well as distil-
lers and venders of intoxicating poi
sons, await with anxiety the result.
AS portion of the people, we come
up hither, this day, to express our
wishes and our determinations - and
to this end
/. Resolved, That we recognize
God as the author of this enterprise,
and that we look to him for wisdom,
grace, and strength, to aid us in this
blessed work.
2. ResOlred, That the popular SEN
tlment of this State demands of the
present Legislature law entirely pre-
hibiting the manufacture Of, and traf-
fc in, intoxicating liquors to be used
as Beverage law embodying the
principle of search, seizure, confsca-
ton and destruction, and all the 9TH
er vital principles in the Maine law.
3. ResOJred, That this Legislature
being the same as the one of last win
ter, all the petitions presented then
are now properly before them.
4. ResolOed, That whatever may
be the action of the present General
Assembly, we will be satisfied with
no measure which does not provide
for the utter determination of the dis
tiIleries and dram shops of the State.
Pending the discussion of the 5th
resolution, the convention adjourned
until 8 o'clock tomorrow morning.
