For the Cheraw Gasette. IN MEMORY or THE HAPPT DEAD. M0 my brother, the thought that they have joined the blest compa ny of the redeemed, should prevent every murmuring, every repining ex, pression." Yes; thrilling, glorious thought! Our loss is heir eternal g tin ; % A voice from heaven proclaims them blest, From all their labors now at rest! At rejt?where not an anxio< care Shall ever ma{ .their oalm repose. No more thc.ir bosoms heave with sorrow's sigh's, No more the tears of anguish dim their eyes. Brief was their coarse, but peaceful was its end; Their sun has set, yet it went down in glory; Sweet is the radiance of its twi'ight hour, Sweet the rememberance of what they were ! Now, brighter sans and brighter spheres, Circling around the Eternal One. In splendor earth can never know, They shine, where no night follows day, ? - -? ? J J? i i Ub, blest are me uv <?, uppancu . The pains and sorrows of this dying life. Sin's orael power, the devil's fiery darts, Death's iron hand, shall never reach them more, Sainted and happy spirits ! In "robes Dipped in the fountain of a Saviour's love." Arrayed hi all the glory of the upper world, They "bow before the Throne?" To strains of triumph heard but io Paradise, They strike their golden lyres in praise to Him. The Lamb of God, the sufflring Son of Man, Who was for sinners slain. O the lost we mourn, are happy now! Heaven is their home ; angels and spirits Of the just, their friends . the God of Leve, The Lord of Life and Glory, their fountain Of eternal bliss. We will not then repine. It were ungrateful And unkind. For sure, we would not call them back, Again to suffer in this "vale of tears." No; they are happy:?and the blessed thought Our fainting spirits shall sustain and soothe. In sad bereavement's loneliest, darkest hour, Wo will rejoice.

Near Cheraw, Aug. 23, 1839. from a .N. Y Correspondent of the U, Gaz THE DRUNKARD'S END. A crowd had gathered near the gate at the southern extremity of the Battery, and several voices rose at tlie same moment ap. on the air, crying vengeance upon a tattered form that reeled into the enclosure in a beastly state of intoxication. He was apparently about fifty years of age, and was followed by a young, beautiful, and interes. ting girl, not out of her teens. A moment before 1 saw him he had raised his arm and truck this lovely being to the earth. For this the crowd was pursuing him, and would <ioubiless have committed some summary act upon the inebriated wretch, had not the aame delicate form interposed to prevent the consumption of the deed. Site approached timidly, and fondly begged the monster to go borne. He swore by the living God that he would never return. Little did he think, as he uttered the o&th, that the vengeance of that God his sacrilegious lips profaned, j was at that moment hanging over mm, ana that the angel of death was waiting upon the waters to bear him. with all his sins upon .his head, into the presence of the Creator he has mocked. He shook the fair girl from him with a curse and staggered to the railing. A cluster of boars was at some distance from the shore, and a few voices were singing one of Russell's excellent songs. The drunkard contrived to clamber on the uppermost rail, and having seated himself, called to the eingers to perform something lively, or, d?n his eyes, he would como out there and sing lor himself. These were (he last words he uttered. In endeavoring to change his position, his foot slipped, and he foil into (he water lo rise no more. Great exertions were made by the boats to render him assistance, and more than one daring fellow plunged into the sea ; bnt all in vain?his body has notyef been recovered. The tide was running strong at the time, and we may bear of bis body being washed upon the op, posite shore in a few days. The poor girl was almost frantic?she voshed to the water's edge crying44 Father! dear, dear father! For Heaven's sake, mva m? father !H It was indeed her fo?h er. He had once enjoyed a handsome property, but liquor rained him. He sold km home for it, and at last his garmeuts. His wife had died from want, and this daughter had supported him and three brothers by the labor of her hands. He swore lie would never again enter her house, bo. cause she would not give him liquor?he cursed her and died while a curse against himself yet hung upon his hps. The daugh. ter did not leave the spot before midnight, and her cries appalled the stoutest hearts around her. Twenty dollars were raised among the spectators, but when handed to her, site exclaimed, No ! give me my fa. tier.*' # Poor girl, she called in vain. That father was iu other presence. She was borne from the place by some frieuds and when 1 left the spot, the lightness of heart which had drawn me to the scene had departed, and I foil it almost a sin to bo happy amid the wretchedness man makes for himself. TKQTH BEATIFULTY EXPPESSED. The following passage, (says the United Stales Gasette,) beautiful in its truth, and in the expression of that truth, is from the editor of the Batimore American, and will be j felt and appreciated by every parent, and most beaitiiy do we commend it to the attention of children : 44 If children could only be made aware of the heartfelt dehght with which parents behold the development of talent and noble sentiment in their o&pring, with what avid, ity would they seek the means of expanding the sphere of their intelligence, and cherish., ing the moral sentiments that impart dignity "?^"""gBgggaggaEg*?mmmm \ n i to the human character. From infancy to manhood, the welfare and happiness of the child is the sole object ofthe parent's solicitude. Under all circumstances, through good or evil fortune, the present and future condition of those whom they may have rocked in the cradle, or dandled on the knee, is the polar star to which their affec. tions point with undeviating constancy. Should their path through life be presperous, the possession of wealth and distinction is only precious in their eyes as affording the means of conferring on these who are, in future years, to be their representatives, the honors that attend riches and exalted character ; and, should adversity be their lot; and difficulties beset them, they are forgotten in the hope that circumstances may ensure a better fate to their childien. The child may be affectionate and tender, but the filial relation is not susceptible of tbe intensity of affection which belongs to the parental tie. It is this depth of love that enables die old to pass from the stage of life without regret. They feel that in their children they will continue to live, and that, however this world and its concerns nmy be lost to them, succeeding generations will recognise in their offspring portions of themselves. With what unspeakable delight does n futher behold the first manifestations of exalted intelligence in a son, and how WnfHj tin dwell uDon actions that bespeak nobleness ofpurpose and soundness of integrity. If these feelingsofgratificatioa are inexpressibly deliglhful, so on the other hand, the emotions with whtch he views indications of an opposite character are unuttera- I bly painful. To see the object of his paternal solicitude, over whom ho has watched day after day, and year after year, falling off from the path of virtue, and deaf to the op. peals of honorable motives, is to hove a source of bitterness of reg et to which no temporal blessing can furnish a 1 antidote. Honors may await, and the confidence and love of his fehow.beings may, for a moment cheer his path through life ; but when be reflects that this love is to be changed into contempt and dislike in tin? person of his own child, he feels as if it were belter to be deprived of all, than to witness so heurL rending a contiast. If there be reserved for human life a joy more exalted than all others, it is that of beholding Us last moments cheered by the fondness and affection of a worthy and virtuous progeny; and if there be a pang more agonizing than any other, it is that of a dying parent whose last thought rests upon the crimes of a depraved but fondly beloved son." From tho Georgia Journal. We have been requested by the Committee ofTemperance Reform, to publish the following: Jackson, Butts Co., 12th June. 1839. j D ar Sir;?Your favor of the 4th instant, requesting me to give you information as l to the influenco of the retail system in the Froduction of crime, is now before me, and hasten to answer it. ^1 now regret that I have not kept some written memoraandum, showing a brief outline of tbe evidence de~ I live red in Court on the trial of the many criminal causes It has been my duty to pro secute, within the last four years and a half, in ibis Circuit, so as to exhibit an exact satistical account of the causes which have induced the perpetration of crime in each and every case. The details would no doubt astonish all who have not investigated the subject, and who hove not been much conversant with our Courts of Justice. I can however inform you, that most of the leading incidents connected . with almost every trial, have been indelibly and painfully impressed on my memory, so as to deiy forget fulness. I hazard nothing in stating to you, that of the offences against our criminal laws, usually committed in the heat of passion, such as murder, manslaughter, biting, gouging, stabbing, assaults with intent to murder, assaults and batteries, riots and affrays, at least nine tenths may be traced directly to grog-shops. To the best of my recollection, and I have endeavored to tax it to the utmost, not a single conviction has taken place for illicit intercourse with slaves, or for a violation of the Sabbath day, except w lie re the retail, er himself has been the crimioal; and no case of a conviction for the disturbance of religions congregations, except where the accused was either drunk or drnking; none except retailers have been convicted of keeping gaming bouses, and no one has been convicted of gaming at any other place than those occupied by retailers ; and what may appear still more strange, in seventeen convictions to the Penitentiary foratealing, in which I have been the prosecuting officer, a majority of the crimes are clearly charga. ble to drunkenness. For example: poor VV., of respectable connections, in a state of beastly intoxication, at a grog-shop in Pike county, attempted to entice away a slave, was convicted for larceny, and ended his life in the Penitentiary. Ca:es, Johnson and Corley, severally convicted of larceny, at Bibb Superior Court, were all under the influence of liquor at the time of the com. mission of their crimes ; two of them, Cates and Corley, ore still in the Penitentiary ; Johnson, on professions of peni ence, recei. ved a pardon, returned to the city of Macon, was detected in gambling with a negro, at a place where spirits were retailed, received a severe flogging for his conduct, and fled the couniry. I forbear to go further into detail, as to names and circumstances connected with | the other cases, under the apprehension of 1 wounding the feelings of relations and friends, many of whom are highly respectable. But why does liquor create or encourage a disposition to steal ? I answer, it dethrones reason and lays its victims open to the in. roads of every dishonest temptation which he may have experienced when sober. It destroys all his moral powers of resisting his evil inclinations and propensities. And it may be well remarked, it also impairs his vigilunce and skill in avoiding detection? creates incapacity to contrive plans of escape?and hence drunken rogues are in a common way, easily detected. You also ask information on tho subject of the expenses attending the trial and investigation of crimes ottribnted to intemperance.?This enquiry involves so many details of Justices*, Constables', Sheriffs', Coroners', Clerks', Jailers' and Solicitor Generals' fees, that I am by no means prepared to furnish any thing like an accurate estimte, except in the county where I reside, and that only in the eight capital cases which nave occurred since the organization of the county. Oftheso eight cases, six of tht defendants were drunk at the time of the commission of the crimes, and two sober; two have been hung, three have been seni to the Penitentiary, three have escapee from justice?leaving only the costs of tht indiclments and coroners fres for burving; the dead and holding the inques s, amount ing to about fifty dollars to be paid by the county?and the costs which have been pnic by the county in all the cases where th< defendants were drunk, have not been les: than four hundred dollars. I think, on a moderate calculation, ou Courts are occupied one founh of their tim< in trying cases which would never have ha< existence but for the influence of liquor and it remains for those who gevern th< country to decide, I mean the people, ho* much of the various incidental expenses a paying judges and juries, and buildini court-houses and jails, is justly charg&Uc l< intemperance. Yi)urs respectfully, JAMES H. STARK. To Wm L. Fambro. I look upon rayer meeting* as the mm profitable exercises (excepting the public preacl ing) in which ChriMians can engage: they hav a direct tendency to kill a worldly trifling spiri to draw down a divine blessing upon all ou concerns, compose differences, and enkindle (i least to maintain) the flame of divine lot amongst brethren.
