WARNING TO TIPPLING LOVERS.—One night in
the beginning of the present week, as a gentleman was
wending his way home from this place at a rather late
hour, and when within little more than a stone-cast of his
own house, he was not a little startled to hear groans pro-
ceeding from a ditch on the opposite side of the road to
that on which he was walking. For some time he stocd
conjecturing whether they proceeded from a human being
or not; but no sooner were they repeated than, screwing
up his courage, he approached the ditch, and was shocked
to find a respectably dressed young man lying, his heels
fully four feet higher than his body, intoxicated. With
difficulty he succeeded in raising the young unfortunate
to his feet, but then came the puzzle, what was he to
do with him? He was unable to walk' to Alloa, wihthee
he was bound, and tl,e "good Samaritan" could not think
of allowing him to lie upon the roadside, he therefore
resolved to take him to his own house, and give him
such a bed as he could spare. On reaching the house,
all the inmates being sound asleep, he put him in a
straw shed, and shutting the door behind him retired for
the night. At an early hour next morning the kind-
hearted landlord (hearing rather an unusual noise im-
mediately in front cf his bedroom) rose, and to his amaze-
ment saw his domestic servant chasing with a large stick
the very person he, on the previous night, had taken
from the roadside. On coming down stairs, he met Jenny,
who, in reply to his interrogatories, stated that be was her
sweetheart, that he had courted her for about 18 months,
and that, though be bad often promised to marry her, he
as the last two or three occasions had come intoxicated to
see her, consequently she had taken a distaste to him.
Jenny's master commended her highly for her conduct.
Yet, notwithstanding f... 11 that has occurred, we understand
that there is every likelihood that the two will be shortly
united in the bonds of wedlock—be, the " lovyer," having
joined the teetotal society.—Stirling Journal.
