B65" We have been furnished with an ex-
tended account Of a Temperance celebration
at Eglantine, near Brier Greek, Wilkes coun-
ty, but owing to the pressure on our columns,
VIC are not able to publish in full. We must
DO content with the following brief abstract
A large number of tho friends of Temper
ance, ladies and gentlemen, met at Martin
Readings, where a procession was formed
and repaired to Byzantine, with banner un-
furled and the merry voice of woman cheer
ing us on with sweetest music. On arriving
at tho place, the congregation assembled re-
ceived the procession standing, and made
way for a proper disposition of seats. The
meeting was organized, u. B. Adams, Presi-
don't; Martin Redding, Vice President, &c.
The following beautiful Song was written for
the occasion, to be sung by the ladies':
/. / love to see the morning beam
Upon the fow'ry lea,
But love not, even in q dream,
The wine cup offered me.
2. like to see q noble youth
Love virtue in his sire:
Yet love not him who loves not truth,
But quaffs the liquid fire,
,. The ruby wine that sparkles bright,
Ahd GOllpIS TIC WdllJOn eye
Casts on the soul q deadly blight,
And revels on a sigh.
4. Hove to see the blushing rose
In all its beauty shine,
But cannot waste my love on those
Who love the rosy wine.
5. I love pure water from the spring,
The dew drop on the green,
But to the vile inebriate king
l would not be q queen.
s.. / love fidelity in man,
And purity of heart,
Love still directs Gods mighty plan,
And bids all pain depart.
Z. / love the way that leads to God,
Where pleasures ever dwell,
The way the holy prophets trod,
But not the road to hell.
8. l love among the saints to be,
Their cheerful smiles to meet,
The sinner oft It's sad to see,
u In6h- Ieu lis turn to God alone,
And worship at his shrine,
But never love, or even own,
The votary of wine.
10. The drunkard is a loathsome sight,
The scourge of maid and wife,
Turns brightest days to darkest night
Embitters early life.
ii. Then let US guard against the i'll,
That we may never pine,
Nor bend beneath the tyrant will,
OF those who love the wine.
IL. For happiness alone can dwell,
With hearts that soar above,
Here notes of JOY alone will swell
In strains of heavenly love.
Tho recent death of Bro. James NJ. Par
n veteran in the temperance cause, was
nounced, and resolutions adopted, regretti
his loss and bearing testimony to his ma
virtues. Interesting addresses were dcliy
cd by the President and elder w. L. Van
ton, and the company separated, highly
lighted with the exercises of the day.

THE DISENTHRALLED.

lie had bowed down to d~runkeness-
An abject worshipper;
The pulse of manhood's pride had grown
Too fast, and cold, to stir
And he had given his spirit up
To the unblessed thrall;
And bowling to the poison cup,
He gloried in his fall.
There came change-the cloud rolled off
A light fell ON his brain
And like the passing Of a dream
That cometh not again,
The shadow Of his spirit fed,
lie saw the gulf before!
He shuddered at the waste behind,
And was a man once more
He shook the serpent fold away
That gathered round his heart,
As shakes the swaying forest oak,
Its poison vine apart:
He stood erect-returning pride
Grew terrible within,
And conscience sat in judgment on
HIS most familiar sin!
The light Of intellect, again,
Along his pathway shone,
And reason, like q monarch, sat
Upon its olden throne!
The hOnOred and the wise once more
Within his presence came;
And fingered oft on lovely lips,
His once forbidden name!
There may be glory in the might
That treadeth nations down
Wreathes for the crimson conqueror,
Pride for the kingly crown:
But nobler is that triumph hour,
The disenthralled shall find,
When evil passion boweth down
Unto the godlike mind.
