uch deep emotion Of SOUL that friend Of hers acc,
her Of being maniac on the subject Of tcmperan
vherenpon she wrote the following lines:
Go feel what have felt,
Go bear what have borne
Sink meath the blow father dealt,
And the cold worlds proud scorn;
Then suffer on from year TO year
Thy sole relief the scorching tear.
Go kneel as have knelt,
Implore, beseech, and pray
Strive the besotted heart to melt,
The downward course 10 stay;
Be dash'd with bitter curse aside,
Your peayers burlesqued, your tears defied.
Go weep as have wep,.
Der loved fathers fall
See every promised blessing swept,
0utn sweetness turn u W Ball--
Life's fading flowers strew'd all the way,
That brought me up 10 woman's day.
Go see what have seen,
Behold the strong man how'd,
With gnashing teeth, lips bath'd in blood.
And cold and liyJ brow;
Go catch his wither'd glance, and see
There mirror'd bis souls misery.
Go 10 thy mothers side,
And her crush'd bosom cheer;
Thine own deep anguish hide,
Wipe from her check The bitter tear;
Mark her worn frame and wi,her'd brow,
The gray that streaks her dark hair now;
With fading frame and trembling limbs;
And trace the ruin back to him
Whose plighted faith, in carly youth,
Promised eternal love and truth;
But who, foresworn, hath yielded up
That promise TO the cursed cup;
And led her down, through love and light.
And all that made her prospects bright.
And cha:n'd her there, mid want and strife,
That lowly thing. drunkard's wife--
And siamp'd on chilihood's brow 50 mild,
That with ring blight, that drunkarJ's child
Go hear, and feel, and see, and know,
All that my soul hath feI, and known,

GREAT MANUFACTURING STATES.

We recently gaye..a highly important sta
tistical table in relation 20 the manufactures
of the United States. for the year which ter
minated on the lst OF June, 1850. Many
changes have since taken place, and the
condition Of affairs az the present time is es-
sentially different. few facts, however,
deserve to be recapitulated. II appears, &C
cording to the table to which we have refer
red. that the leading manufacturing States
at the time, were Massachusetts,, New York
York, and Pennsylvania. Thus, in Massa-
chusetts, there we're S259 establishments,
with an aggregate capital of ss5, So, ,6l2.
The cost Of the raw materials was ss5, $50,
I'll The hands employed amounted to 90,
a6l males and 60, ,657 females. The cost OF
labor was nearly eli, ,0O0, ZOO, and the value
Of The products was upwards of sI5l 900,
4 600. In New York, the number of establish
mcnis was . ,55S. and the aggregate capital
amounted to S99.9Ol .I03. The cost Of ma.
tcrial was SIS i,6jj,6-I. The males employ
ed amounted 70 l47,757. and the females to
4 1912. The cost Of labor was upwards Of
Sfg,0UO. 900, and the value Of products more
than S2j1 ,Cn0,Oo0. Ia Pendsylyania, the
number Of establishments was 81 COS, the
capital S9l .457.sl0, the cost ofraw material
ss7 ,2oG,357. The males employed we're

Of labor amounted in the aggregate 10 up
wards of sj1. 100000, and the value Of tie
products to upwards Of s1J5,000,0OO. II
will thus be seen that Massachusetts,, New

preme Court Judge, and served his term
with much ability when, in 1856, he was

The corn in many sections Of Ohio has certainly
