FoREIGN-France is quiet, and the Empe-
ror seems TO relax the stringency of his des-
potism In Holland, Spain and Denmark,
attempts to overthrow the existing constitu-
tons are planned by tie Courts. The East.
ern question, aad the difficulties between
Austria and Switzerland on one side, and
Sardinia on the other. are far from settled.
Even The Times believes that there is some
thing gloomy looming in the future. A po-
litica crisis is approaching, beginning proba-
bly, in the East, but rolling on like the wave
of the spring tide, and sweeping away the
tottering thrones of the Continent. In the
meantime, people enjoy, where they are al
lowed to do it, their present national pros
perity-the result of the influx of Californian
and Australian gold, which encourages the
most reckless speculation.

PROCEEDINGS OF A MEETING p


Of The friends Of Temperance in McMinn
county, Tennessee.
Pursuant to public notice, the friends of
Temperance met at Mount Zion Meeting
house on Saturday, the 2lst day of May, at
10 o'clock A. NJ. After the appointment of
Marshals, the friends of Temperance formed
themselves in order, and marched to the
Camp Ground, one half mile distant, forming
IN imposing and interesting spectacle.
After arriving at the Camp Ground, the
meeting was organized by appointing Rev.
III. Buttram President, Rev. Jas. Small Vice
President, and James r. Robertson Secretary.
After the Secretary had read the Pledge and
Resolutions previously adopted by the So
cety, the President introduced Rev. George
A. CALDWELL Pastor of tho Presbyterian
Church in Athens, to the meeting, who in a
speech of an hour and a half unclaimed the
audience by his eloquent appeals, logical de-
auctions, and appropriate anecdotes. 1t was
altogether mastery effort, carrying convic-
ton to every heart, except those who are en-
gagged in the liquor business; whose con-
sciences have ceased to lift their warning
voices, and whose sordid hearts are steeled
against the power of truth and oloquence,-
AT the closassi Mis- remarks the speaker de-
sired an expression Of opinion, from the large
multitude, and proposed that all who were in
favor of II prohibitory law would rise to their
feet; at this, nine tenths, if not nineteen
twcntieths, of that vast crowd arose. What
lesson to the candidates for Legislative
power!
After an intermission of one hour, Rev.
J. q. Swisher, in his happy and humorous
manner, entertained the meeting for one half
hour, in an able defense Of the Temperance
cause and in favor of entire Prohibition. AT
the close of his speech he read a preamble
and resolutions, but from the lateness OF the
hour, and from the fact that they embodied
the same principles as the pledge and resolu-
tons formerly adopted by the Society, their
adoption was not insisted upon.
On motion, the following resolutions were
adopted
Resolved, BY the members of this Conven-
ton, that they tender to Rev. G. A. Caldwell,
their sincere thanks for his very able address
delivered on the present occasion.
RcSolrc3, That the Secretary prepare copies
of the proceedings of this meeting for pub
LEGATION in the Athens Post and Knoxville
Wing, and that he send them TO the editors
of those papers.
The meeting then adjourned, and the many
friends of the Temperance cause returned TO
their homes strengthened for the great work
before them, aud with stout hearts and will
ling hands, determined to do battle until vic
tory is won. lille BUTTRAM, Pr,Sh

THE OLD oAKEN BUCKET.


How dear to my heart are the scenes of my
childhood,
When fond recollection presents them to
view,
The orchard, the meadow, the deep tangled
wildwood
And every loved spot that my infancy knew;
The wide spreading pond, the mill that stood
The bridge and the rock where the cataract
fell;
The cot of my father, the dairy house nigh it,
And cen the rude bucket which hung in the
well.
The old oaken bucket-the iron-bound
bucket,
The moss-covered bucket which hung in
the well.
That moss.covered vessel hailas a treasure,
For often at noon, when returned from the
field
found it the source of an exquisite pleasure,
The purest and sweetest that nature can
YIELD
How ardent l seized it, with hands that were
glowing,
And quick to the white pebbled bottom it fell,
Then soon with the emblems of truth over.
flowing
And dripping with GOODNESS it rose from
the well.
The old oaken bucket-the iron bound
bucket,
The moss-covered bucket arose from the
well.
How sweet from the green messy brim to re-
ceive it,
When poised on the curb it inclined to my
lips;
Not full, blushing goblet could tempt me to
leave it,
Though filled with the nectar that Jupiter
sips.
And now far removed from that loved situation
The tear of regret will intrusively swell,
As fancy reverts to my fathers plantation,
And signs for the bucket which hangs in
the well.
The old oaken bucket--the iron bound
bucket
The moss covered bucket which hangs
in the well.

that of the most eminent Physicians in this

BEWARE OF COUNTERFEIT GOLD CONS
We understand that counterfeit S. gold
piece was recently offered at store in this
city, well calculated to deceive the unwary.
1t was marked with the letter d. The die
was apparently perfect with the exception
that the stars opposite the face were less
prominent than they are in the genuine issue
of Uncle Sam. The ring was also dull, and
it sounded as though it were cased. The
weight was light, and it looked bright and
new, and the rim was well impressed. The
year was 1852 or 1858; the party to whom it
was offered not remembering exactly.
