Died in this city, on the 9Th INST, CHARLES J..
AMEs, prlncr-a young man OF rare genus, preClp
i,ated to an ,ui nliey end by the demon INTEMPER.
ANCE. Not long slncc, Under the influence OF sober
reflection, and animated, doubt by sincere csOiI-
ton 10 reform his habits thi, i'll tl;cd young man
wrote and published The following pcntcnl and beau
tiu lines; but, alas! bis resolution was not equal 10
the sincerity of his pcnicnt emotions; and cIdlsing
INTO his former habits. he soon found Wntnnely
grave We do not wish TO be harsli-bt still We must
say, that it Is serious question:, whether those who
sold presented liquor to this miserable young man,
may not be Justly considered mmtcrcrs at least III
moral seuse Mr.. Alnes had not only a fine poetical
genius; but saw, not long bciorc his death, letter
which he wrote on business and We have never seen
elegant or appropriate production OF The kind;
i, was indeed masterpiece III It's style, and peculiar
fitness for the OCCASION Mr. Ancs worked last, as a
ourncyman, in this Office; and for short tnneo,c
had hopes that he would REFORM but these hopes Were
evancscent, and are now eniombcd with the relics of
that genius which, but for ruinous propensity,
might have shonc forth the ornament and pride of It's
native cline, which, we believe was that of New Eng.
land. 1t is to be hoped, however, that the following
lines, though their unhappy and lamcntcd author had
not the resolution to live up to them, may not be, IN
all cases, as seed sown upon a rocky sol. We can.
not but add what must be the feelings st those, if any
feelings they possess, who, while they think othc I'M
timely grave ofthc writer, rcro!ect that by furnishing
him with drnli-by tempting him, in his words
$50 drain The cup Of sn they prccpitatcd his melan
choy, his awful end!
