the Colonel, latter we had been to sea three

"Some humane individual had conveyed
him on deck, where in his forlOrn distress be
was heaving and setting like blind puss in

tween the erruptiOns, and grOaned as if in

His ruling Observation-Disclosures aroused
as his eye fell on a fellow sufferer, who was
clinging to the mast for support.
"The individual in question was the en-
bodimcnt of speechless anguish. His cOun-
tenance expressed all that dreadful nausea
which, on the first spasmOtic action Of the
stomach, would enable him to throw up
his very boots. His mouth was strained open
to its utmost extension, bis eyes protruded
from their sockets. and hugh drops Of perspi-
ration stood on bis brow-fesh and blood

We have seen accounts OF aocks of sheep
dying ia largo numbers until they were liber-

years without single instance OF disease

likewise been shown Ia the management OF

" Wanted. boy as clerk in liquor store"
Such was the advertisement which we saw.
while gancing over the columns Of a daily
paper, and the words have ever since been
craven on our memory.
We cannot but feel saddened, when we
think that this summons may be answered.
and another young heart, fresh and pure as
an unfolding rosebud, be exposed to the infu-
eucc of that traffic, which has proved the
bane Of so many human lives
We can but ask ourself If any parents,
having the slightest sense ofduty, will consent
to place a child in such perilous position.
Oh, no! it would seem that poverty, in its
worst form. would be preferable to this. We
appeal TO our readers TO know if, among them,
there is one who would respond 10 this call.
That dark-eyed boy, bending so thoughtfully
over his book in the humble home, Of which
he is the pride and joy. may perchancc read
this advertisement He is poor. and almost
friendless His widowed mother tolls YEARLY
npon her stitching, from the earliest flush of
dawn, TIL the still "noon Of night when
shadows brood darkly over earth and sky
Many times during the long. cold days Of
winter, she has set shvering over her work.
while warm tears gushed from her ewes, and
fell, like summer rain, upon her thin. pale
fingers. The lad knows that penurys icy
hand has swept the glow from her cheek. tho
glad light from her eye, the sweet smile from
her lips, and this knowledge gives him such
thoughts as seldom visit the brain Of child
hood
Many a vision Of wealth fits through his
dreams many hope burns at his heart. that
at some future day he shall be rich and great.
But let him resist the temptation which
that advertisement holds out before him. and
closing his ears against the song Of the syren,
resolve to live ia 90reyty till he can earn
his bread By honest means. A crua and
a strai0 palLet are better than costly viands
and the luxurious couch, purchased by this
detestabe traffic
There is another lad, in a comfortable
hOmc whose father sees the Wanted " to
which we alude. lie is man of the world,
and wishes his son 10 rise 10 wealth and inhu-
ence. To him the situation of clerk in a
liquor store may seem attractive, but let him
not follow out the inclination which it has
aroused. Let him not place his child amid
the thousand temptations of such place let
him not hold to the bright lips of his boy
the fatal drausht-for if he does. he will too
late repent Of his folly.
Mother, will you permit your son. so tend
erly nurtured, to launch his life-bark on such
a sea? Sisters. have you a brother whom
you can willingly see accept the offered situs-
tion Would to Heaven. that from all the
homes of our land we might hear one emphat-
ic mo that a clerk in a liquor store
might ever be "wanted. .n-Okire ByaRch.
