Intemperance.—No. 5, "Yes, there is poison in the cup; for they who drink of it sometimes grow gid dy and sick and fall down."—Csaus THE GREAT. The ancient Persians, five centuries before Christ, were distinguished for their temperance, bravery, and virtuous simplicity of manners.• They bestowed the utmost attention upon the education of their children. Public schools were established, and thus the means of ele mentary instruction were widely diffused over the whole empire ; they therefore voon rose from obscurity to a distinguish ed rank in the scale of nations. At five years of age their children were commit ted to the care of the " Magi " for the improvement of their minds and morals. Among—the children thus educated. '"Crut- the Great," son of "Cambyses" K.ing'of Persia, was indefatigably en gaged in . the acquisition of every valu. able quality requisite to make a wise and useful Sovereign. Cyrus, while a youth, accompanied his mother on a visit to his grandfather "Astyges " King of Media; a kingdom then noted for its pride and luxury. The artless manners and sem4ible conversation of the young Prince, operated powerfully ou the mind of his grandfather. Ile with a profuse hand loaded him with presents. Wine was soon afte'r intro.luced by the King to refresh his guests. The cup bearer being absent, Cyrus offered to perform his duties. Ile took the cup and pre sented it to his grandfather, who, laugh ingly, observed that the young prince had forgotten one thing. " What have I forgotten ?" asked Cyrus. "To taste the wine before you handed it to me and your mother," ( a custom which prevail ed on similar occasions in all the orient. al dominions) The Prince fearlessly and characteristically replied, " I did not forget that but I did not choose to swallow poison." " Poison !" exclaim. ed the King. "Yes, there'must be pois on in the cup, for they who 'drink of it sometimes grow giddy and sick and fall down." "Then do you never drink in yourcountry ?" inquired Astyges. "Yee, we only drink to satisfy thirst, and then a little water suffices." Cyrus carried those inestimable virtues which he was early taught with him to the throne. Although Persia was originally small in extent and almost wholly unknown, un der his ordinance it became one of the meet powerful nations on earth. Yes, proud' Media bowed submissively to the cup bearer" and all the parts adjacent to the Euxine and Caspian seas. If temperance would thus 'flourish and ex tend its benign influence over a whole nation while shrouded in Pagan dark ness, oughb not we who live in a laud of " gospel light,", and distinguished for industry, intelligence, and enterprise, to be the zealous supporters of a cause which has for its object the prostration of Intemperance, that insiduous and de structive foe of man which has done co much to fill the world with poverty, dis ease and death ? Will the people of the United States permit this — evil to continue ? The ravages ofintemperance are stall abroad in the land ; every peri odical tells us of its conquests. Hus bands torn from their families, brothers in despite of the prayers of sisters, old and young, rich and poor, are pressing on even uow with rapid strides towards the "drunkard's grace I" I call upon the " Watchmen on the walls of Zion " to sound the alarm far and wide that ir.. temperance is still in the land. Teach. ers forget not to impress upon the minds of your pupils the horrid effects of drunkenness; tell them their only safety from the "destroyer," is " total absti nence from all' intoxicating drinks." Parents see that your children are form ing temperance principles, " growing with their growth and strengthening with their strength." Every friend of the temperance cense should be Indefatiga bly engaged in carrying forward the great principles of the temperance refor mation, and by their precepts and ex ample constantly proclaiming " yes , there must be poison in the cup, for they who drink of it sometimes grow giddy and sick and fall down." G. M. C. Marietta, August, 24, 1839. PARDONED.—SamueI Neff, Sr., convic ted ou the 22d of November, 1862, in the Court of Quarter Sessions for this county, of Man-slaughter, and sentenced to the Eastern Penitentiary for eleven years and six months, was on last Wed nesday discharged from durance by a pardon from Governor Curtin. The offence for which Neff was convicted grew out of a difficulty about a fish•pot in the river, near Safe Harbor. John Smeltzer was shot in the affray, from the effects of which he died. Though Sam• uel Neff, Sr., was found guilty of the deed, it has been satisfactorily shown since the trial took place, that the weapon VI which the act was perpe trated was in the hands of another per son at the time.-Express. air Harry Wdlfe, it appears; has the soap now for sale. Bee bia eard MA.RIETTIA.N.&-% - • A SUPERIOR WRITING FLUID.—We have been using for several months past, a very superior article of writing fluid, manufactured by Dr. Wm. B. Fabnes tock, and for sale by John Spangler, agent, Marietta. For many years Dr. Fahnestock has been experimenting in the preparation of writing inks, with a view to get up something that would equal the celebrated Arnold writing fluid which has hitherto baffled the skill of all American "ink chemists." His amiable perseverance has at last' been crowned with success. We not only pronounce this fluid equal to Arnold's in all respects, but in some we believe it to be superior, especially in being less destructive to steel pens. Now, that we have an American writing fluid, fully equal to that imported, we trust all writers will encourage home talent and industry, and at the same time promote their own interests and convenience, by using the best flowing ink ever produced. —Lancaster Express, 'We have, for several weeks, used the same ink,• and willingly endorse the above. We have found it to flow freely and in a short time become intensely black. Dintitts.
