Go Feel What 1 Have Felt.

young lady Of New York was in the habit o
writing on the subject Of temperance. Her writ
ings were full CT pathos, and evinced such deeJ
emotion Of soul, that friend accused her of be
ing maniac on tho subject of intemperance
whereupon she wrote tho following touching
|ines:-
Go feel what have felt,
Go bear what have borne
Sink meath 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 to stay
Be dashed with bitter curse aside,
Your prayers burlesqued, your tears dcfed.
Go weep as have wept
Der loved fathers fall
See every promised blessing swept
Youths sweetness turned to gall;
Life's fading flowers strewed all the way
That brought me up to woman's day.
Go see what have seen,
Behold the strong man bowed
with gnashing teeth-lips bathed in blood
And cold and livid brow;
20 catch his whitening glance, and see
There mirrored his souls misery.
Go to thy mothers side,
And her crushed bosom cheer;
Thine own deep anguish hide;
Wipe from the cheek the bitter tear:
Mark her worn frame and withered brow
The gray that streaks her dark hair now,
With fading frame and trembling limb
And trace the ruin back to him,
Whose plighted faith in carly youth
Promised eternal love and truth,
But who, foresworn hath yield.d up
That promise to the cup:
And led her down through love and light,
All that made her promise bright
And chained her there, mid want and strife,
That lowly thing-a drunkard's wife,
And stamped on childhood's brow, so mild.
That withering blight-tho drunkards child.
10 hear, and feel, and see, and know,
All that my soul hath felt and known
Then look upon the wine cups glow;
See if its beauty can atone
Think of its flavor you will try.
When all proclaim, it's drink, and die,
Tell me I HATE the BOWL
Hate is feeble word
loath-abhor-my very soul
With strong disgust is stirred
When see, or hear, or tell
of that dark beverage of He'll.

RuMoRED REVOLUTION IN MEXICO
A Brownsville, Tex, dispatch, dated Sep
tember 18th, says there is a rumor cur
rent that General Roeha, Commander-in-
Chief of the Mexican army, is getting up
revolution on his own account. General
Rocha has the reputation of being the
best fighting man in the Mexican army,
and if he rebels he will have plenty of
followers. He is now at Zacatecas, in
the command of large force, and is said
to sympathize with the malcontents Of
Saltilo and Monterey.

Fifty Per Cent. Of Fuel
S A Y p D

Tho lowest temperature at which combus-
ton Of coal can tako place, is never below 500
degrees, SO that if coal is heated to tho lowest
temperature consistent with harmony, and
then current Of cold air be forced on it, tho
fire will be entirely put out ; while if air rs
warm as the coal is substituted, it will kindle
at once. In the foSmer case, heat was taken
from the coal to cquali*o the temperature with
that of the air !; in the latter, no such 'de-
pressing effect WAS produced, and the case is
parallel with this new stove, which supplies
hot air, and avoids reducing the heat Of the
fuel.
So VIC sec that this high heating Of the
draught, by means Of such circuitous passa-
ges, as this stove presents, is not the result Of
ACCIDENTAL EXPERIMENT, but the
NATURAL DEVELOPMENT Of ESTAB-
