II was no delusion. Mr.. Harwick bad pur-
poscly escaped, after the battle of Quebec was

and had Just now come Up tvil- Raleigh, whose
story he had heard and to.whou lc bad made

before the wine had ceased to flow, they made

MISCELLANY.
From the Emporium.
THE UNGRATEFUL SON


That every picture of human society might be
diversified, as that the bright colours it contain
ed should glow with hveIier beauties when con-
trasted with bordering shades, nature, after she
had finished, with the most delicate touches the
darling character of love, pity, and generosity
OF the heart, permitted demon TO pass and draw
line OF darker hue. Hoping, at one dash,
TO mar the beauty of the whole, he touched the
heart with pencil dipped in gall, and called the
stain lngratltude. How often, beneath the bane-
iul influence of that single touch has the finer
feelings OF the bosom been obliterated. and love
grown cold and wIthered in the very spring time
OF the passions, and pity pinned away till it forgot
lis attributes, and generosity been clouded with
the msts ofseishness 1t is delightful to believe,
that IN most Instances this has not been the is
sue would that il had not in the case I am to
speak of.
Mr. Harwick was a gentleman Of fortune,
residing IN village IN remote part of the col
ony OF New-Jersey, about the middle of the last
century; and, after having lost the partner ofhis
early life, he retired from active business, and
devoted his time 10 the education of two child
rem. Harry who was tie eldest Of the two, was
lad of good parts, naturally quick in his per
ception, active and ambitious; his brother Ra-
leigh, on the contrary, without possessing anv
OF that energy which marked the others charac-
ter, was OF kind and afFectionate temper, more
fond OF pleasure than of study, and not at all dis
posed willingly TO sacrifice his ease to tie acqui-
sition of knowledge or the accumulation Of for
tune. Between dispositions so opposite il need
hardly be said, the bias of the father, who had
been ali his life man Of the world, and who
was himself all spirit and activity, always pre-
ponderated IN favor Ofhis eldest son. And though
ers~natural affection forbade him from harbour
ING tAought OF neglecting his youngest offspring,
he early determined To leave his estate "a The ell
