The Biographies OF some Of the
most distinguished literary charac-
tiers of this and other countries, pre-
sent lamentable examples of the dire
full effects of alcoholic liquors on the
intellect. The national injury thus
sustained may be considered in II
two-fold point of view, that is, in the
first place, from the partial incapac-
ity for mental labors which is there
by produced; and secondly, the pre-
mature mortality of men whose mem
tai exertions might otherwise have
greatly benefited their country.
Byron and Burns form prominent cx-
aDples. Prior, according to his BIZ
ography, was not free from tho
charge Of intcmperance. DR.. King
states, that Pope fastened his end
by drinking spirits. Pope remarks,
that Parncll 'was great follower of
drains, and strangely open and scan
dalous in his debaucheries,' all are
agreed, that die became sot, and
finished his existence Dryden, in
his youthful days, was conspicuous
for sobricty, 'but for the last ten
years Of his life,' observes Dennis,
'he was much acquainted with Adj
Olson, and drank with him even
more than he ever used to do, prob
ably so far as to hasten his end
'Cowley's DEATH remarks Pope,
'was occasioned by a mean accident,
while his great friend, Dean Pratt,
was oil visit with him at Chcrtsey.
They had been together to see
ncighbor of Cowlcy's, who, accord
ing to the fashion of the times, made
them too welcome. They did not
set out on their walk home, till it
was too late, and had drank so deep,
they lay out in the fields all night.
This gave Cowlcy the fever and car
