' ' "Water for fflLe.' The following is from the pen of James A. Bev eridger and to original in the lexa State Time. It bespeaks an experience of that kind which teaches terrible , lessons; for there is evidently uean, ma: .. , "Water, bright water for me, And wine for the trembling debauchee." I Join your festive scene to-night, I grasp your honest nands, With all the kindly warmth for you I felt in-other lands. I bless the fate that led my steps Among the ever free; I'd so remain take back the bowl, No sparkling wine for me. . I've Quaffed from goblets rich and bright The damning drugs of earth, And shared with gay and thoughtless men A carnival of mirth; But oh! within the ruddy cup A poison lurked unseen Take back the wine IH touch it not, Nor be what I have been. Amid our home the grave yard stands In sadness and In gloom; -And on the head-stene ye may read The drunkard's early doom; They were the friends of childhood's hours, And o'er my spirits cast A shadow dark and desolate, In memory of the past Then ask me not to pledge in wine The friends I meet to-night, Tor 'neath its evanescent beams Is found an endless blight. I will not drink while reason sways, But stand erect and free While water flows from fountains pure, No treacherous wine for me. Austin, January 17, 1S54. IKTEMPEBANC E, An Old Theme in a New Drees, A correspondent of the Washington Gazette thus handles this subject: There are few subjects worthy of discussion in social and. religious cir cles that ,have been treated with so much, exhortation and elaborate detail as the vice of intemperance. Public lecturers have slept on it, dreaming of the realization of handsome returns, and there is scarcely remaining un touched a single phase of this hydra headed monster that has not been torn "as a passion into tatters" on the ros trum and pulpit. .From observation we have arrived at some conclusions respecting the disease and its partial remedy. Therefore, we may appeal to the ac tion of our generous apostles of tem perance to agitate anew the necessary reforms. We have, in common with all thinking people, observed that the poor huddle together in cheap swampy sections in all of our cities. Either close to the water's edge, or in newly made ground covering stagnant ponds, following the course of "the rich man for the mountain, and the poor man for the sea," according to the advan tages of wealth and education. The immigrants of yesterday usually recede inland from those of to-day. These swampy bogs are usually the filth reservoirs of such towns and cities, surcharged, in consequence, with a sickeniDg malaria, through which the entire system of man becomes impreg- natea oiten wunout nis knowing it. The dwellings are built to rent by ava ricious landlords, are imperfectly con structed, often wanting in the most necessary and common conveniences. At the same time the soil is a loath some sponge emitting silently . and noiselessly the most offensive and death-dealing gases and odors. Here, then, is the camping ground fox the vendors of the cheapest intoxicating liquors and his sable highness, the un dertaker, m sucn a location the medi cal formula of quinine and whiskey is said to be remarkably uniform as the panacea. The food, also, is anything but nutritious. Cheap stores, cheap meats, and stale vegetables abound with scarcely a changeof diet from one year's end to the other. The seasona ble fruits, vegetables and milk are sel dom used. All this poverty of food must surely beget paucity of blood, with a taste for alcoholic spirits, to arouse its torpidity, and revive a down cast and malarious disorder. In a majority of instances, totally un accounted for by the patient himself, intelligence itself is baffled in detecting the presence of enervating poisonous vapors. Again, physicians, as well as men of intelligence, know what a great viaduct for ttie emission of many slight internal disorders the skin is, yet the neglect of cleaning this will often change the very temperament of the negligent, so that it has become well established that those who drink most spirits bathe least. Consequently a good bath, whether hot or cold, tends to sobriety. Again, idleness being the devil's workshop, industry must rob him of his tools. We, therefore, admonish. all sho are struggling against this vice to seek em ployment, no matter what the salary or wages employment nrst, last, and every time; avoiding old companions as well as old resorts, for theologians lay it down as a rule, that in order to reform one must avoid the occasion, of his besetting sin. Private Funds In Government Cunto dy Not Subject to Levy. Washington, April 25. The com missioner of internal revenue has just decided in a case which arose in the fifth collection district of North Caro lina that money in the custody of the government and belonging to; a citizen is not subject to levy and attachment under proceedings instituted'in a State court by creditors. The principle de cided is of importance. The circum stances are as follows : A party accused of violating the revenue laws in a num ber of cases, made a proposition to compromise for a certain sum,which he deposited with the department pend ing the negotiations. The department, after due consideration, declined to ac pept the offer made, and; the collectdr of internal revenue of the district: was instructed to return the money to the party depositing it. In the meantime a mandate.was issued from a State court of North Carolina, at the uistance.of certain creditors of the party aforesaid, forbidding the collector to deliver up the money. The conimissioner there upon : directed the collector' to return the money to the department here,from whence it was delivered to the repre sentative of the person to whom it be longed. The view taken was that the government was bound in good faith to return money deposited under -such circunistaflces.; f v . 1 " .,' A.

KnoxvQle Tribune. Ait a iew unya worK will pe. com" menced on the Jinoxville and Ohio Railroad, between Careyville and the State line. The distance is 27 miles, but nearly one-third of that is already J a mi i 1 1 graueu. xuere can naraiy D6 a reason- "!lh a riAnht that' th& nul nvilT. V- completed by 4he, 1st of July, 1882, to the State lins, accorrlingo?greement witn tne. -Louisville" and Nashvillfl. where it wilLmeet the extension of the Kentucky Central, which will also be completed before that time. Not less important to Knoxville is the Southern connection with the Western North Carolina Railroad. ine Tennessee end is already within four and a half miles of the North Car olina btate line, and this short distance will be bridged inside of six months. The distance between Asheville, North Carolina, and the Tennessee State line, is about forty miles. More than one- third of the . road for this distance is already graded, and iron is at hand ready for the track. There are now seven hundred convicts working on this road and five hundred more laborers are to be placed upon it immediately. The road will be completed by the begins ning of the winter. Knoxville dealers may prepare to furnish Charleston, S. U., and other cities on the Southern slope and seaboard, with coal next winter. AbandoKing- Southern Crops. A lawyer who gave his money liber ally to elect the Republican nominees in tne late residential election has just said toGath: "I have not much taith in building up Republican ascen dency in the South by dividing the leaves and fishes. I think that the Re publicans in the North ought by this time to understand that there cannot be productiveness and development in the Southern States as long as the blacks are stirred up by white dema gogues just at crop-gathering time. I have had a juvenile experience in the boutnern btates since the war, and have planted cotton there. So sponta neous is the soil under the sun that weeds grow faster than the cotton, un less your labor at that particular Deri od will fight the weeds out and let the cotton live. And these political.dema gogues, without the least interest in the prosperity of the people,, would come along with a band of music just as you were fighting your weeds with all your hands, and would give a political howl, and would stop the work, make everybody drunk, and probably , spoil your investment. To plant ctton you put, pernaps, $50,000 into your planta tionsand then borrow $50,000 in stuff to eat from your merchant. Just about the time you begin to see your money in signt, tliey spring politics on tne ne gro. That is the cause of the indigna tion in tne southern states, and the Northern people cannot be made to see it. "The brain of the white man" has made the South. The neero labor has been necessary, but so has the labor of tne mule. That directing mind and energy residing in the white man has made cotton one of the great staples of me eartn. The negro is to be protect ed; and since the ballot has been carried out, he should UKJ. 1LUVUU V. VUV vote: but there must be in the South-1 ern estates tne recognition or some present necessity of safeguards to capi- raiaswen as labor. White men who inflame the negroes to abandon the crops are mere: incendiaries, whether they come in the name of politics or religion. Mabone thinks he can start a white element in the South which will moderate both whites and the blacks. It looks, to me, however, as if the white people there had become so- iidihed by his movement. Knew How It Was Hinielf. Galveston News. When Jay Gould was in Galveston and, accompanied by a number of lead ing citizens, was inspecting the cotton exchange, a small boy was seized by one of the Galveston gentlemen just as vue kuuu was picKiug tne great rail road magnate's pocket. "What did the little fellow do?" asked Gould. "He stole your pocket-handkerchief, Mr. Gould, and I am going to turn him over pued Mr. Gould, smiling good-natured ly; "let him go. We should not dis courage young beginners. I had to start out m a modest way myself when I went into the railroad business," and reaching down into his pocket Mr. Gould took up a quarter and gave it to the boy, to encourage him to aim higher.
