"THR VOTE-A THRILLING SCENE.
A few years ago, was in company
with a gentleman who had just returned
from The city of L., in New England.
He said he had put up at a hotel, and
for a time took his seat in the bar.room.
The door opened suddenly, and wo-
man stepped in. She was the very
\ picture Of agony-her hair dishevel-
ed, her dress negligent, her eye un-
steady, and her movements eccentric.
| She seemed to hesitate at first, but at
length, gathering courage, she moved
up to the bar and said: ( Landlord,
don't sell my husband any more rum.
/ You have already ruined us You
4 know that before he come to your bar,
he was q sober man. He was as kind
a huband as any woman ever had
We l ad a good home, good farm,
and every comfort. But you sold him
liquor until he had no money to pay,
Jlnbeknown to me, you got a mort
gage on his farm you sold it, and
turned me and my helpless children
out of doors My husband lost his
health, his character, and his reputa-
toin. He became cross and abusive
to me, v hom he once tenderly loved.
He turns me out Of our wretched how
ell into the cold and storm He
comes from your tavern, infuriated
like demon. My once kind and
amiable husband, and the tender faith
er, is a madman when he is in liquor.
He beats me and my children cruelty,
and threatens to murder us OIL
don't give him any more liquor and
the tears gushed from her eyes, while
the landlord stood speechless.
" In the midst of these entreaties,
which should have broken heart of
adamant man steppedinto the bar
room, and with the vacant stare of
an inebriate. moved toward the bar.
Instantly the pleading wife threw her
self between the man and the bar, and
with one hand against his breast, and
the other stretched out imploringly to
the landlord, she said : 'Oh, don't,
my dear don't drink! You'll break
my heart and bursting with agony,
sue turned to the landlord and said :
Oh, don't let him have it don't,
don't!' And while this scene was
passing, heart-rending and awful, be-
yond description, the landlord walked
; deliberately out from behind the coun-
ter, and taking the woman rudely by
} the arm, said This is no place fol
women and violently tore her from
her husband, and pushing her out, shut
the door against her. The wretched
inebriate staggered up and drank bis
dram, placed piece of money upon
J the counter, the landlord wiped itcom'
placently into the drawer, and the
drunkard passed out, maddened with
the draught, to renew his brutal at
t tacks upon his delenseless wife ant
children.

cruelty as this. No one apologized fol
