MISCELLANEOUS.
An Affecting story.

1t was in the year 163-- that a gentle
man distinguished for his talents and intel
'lectual abilities, suddenly resolved to aban-
don the habit of intemperance, to which he
had long been addicted: He was a remark
able and extraordinary man. His talents
were of the first order, and his attainments
of the most extensive character. In person
he was handsome, and possessed every ex-
terror grace that could please or attract the
Jeye. His manners were Of the most pleas
ing and fascinating kind, and his conyersa-
ton was that of varied and eloquent nature,
so that his company was in every condition
'of society desired. No man was more
deeply versed in classical learning, and in
'phy he was deeply versed. In the lighter
branches of polite literature he had consid-
terable auquirements, and indeed in every
branch Of intellectual knowledge he was
deeply read He had been compared TO
Bolingbroke, who it was well known by
the proGoundness of his philosophy, and the
elegance of his manners could grace and
give a charm to the drawing room, and
teach lessons of wisdom in the Academy or
Lyceum. Al an early age he had married
beautiful and charming young woman,
and from the union Of two persons so well
adapted to each other, it might readily be
supposed that the stream of happiness
would continue uninterruptedly to flow -
but alas! it was soon discovered that the pos
session of the highest attainments, and the
most exalted genius, afforded no security
against the encroachments of a vice, whose
course is marked by misery, and whose
end is death. For years he was a COM
plete victim to this degrading and unhappy
vice, and from considerable lofIineSs of

found the spirit of the bottle had departed;
but have found thee deceptious and un-
grateful Thou didst destroy my reputa-
tion, thou didst reb my pocket. You gave
me disease instead Of health, made the
heart ofmy wife pulsate with unhappiness.
My children wept at the ruin you entailed,
and my house you made desoIate and sor-
rowful. Twelve months have / parted
from you, and now renounce you forever,
thou agent of destructionl thou demon OF
despair! thou accursed alluring pois0n!'--
With that he hoisted the window threw
the bottle into the street, and declared
the victory won. His wife rushed into
his arms, joy bearaing in her counte-
nance. She could only utter, "my hus-
band!" who tenderly embraced her, and
sealed her forehead with kiss. The chill
dren ran TO their father, climbing on his
knees, and told how they partook of the
sympathetic JOY. Even Neptune on the
hearth rug, raised his head, and gave an en-
couraging look to his master, and wagged
lis tail with evident delight.
