For The Spirit of the Age.

Mr.. EDITOR While ON walk last
Saturday evening, when alone thinking of
the shortness of human existence, and the
various troubles and turmoils which beset
a man while on his journey through life,
my attention was suddenly arrested by the
noise of woman in few yards of me, I
turned around, and 10 and behold, it was a
young girl whom l had known from youth.
L politely bowed to her, and / asked her
where she was going, and what she was do
ing alone here by herself, without friends
and relations, and in strange city. She
sadly replied, [ have reasons, which no one
except myself have any knowledge of, and
which I have never revealed to any one
living | have longed to find some one, in
whom l could repose confidence, in order
to open my heart and tell him what trials,
and troubles l have passed. She took her
seat near me, and while seating herself, |
could bat note the sadness of her express
ion. | knew her when she lived with her
father and mother, and was the pride and
stay of them !; all their desire seemed to be
to see her enjoy herself. She never had a
wish which was not satisfied if in their
power. Her father was quite wealthy
man, and lived in the most fashionable
style at the present day-was man of
great intelligence, and scarcely night
passed but his parlor was crowded with
young men, who were eager to catch the die
tates of experience, and pay homage to his
person. His great profundity of law and
his extensive practice had filed his house
with gold and silver. Ellen, the name Of
his daughter, whom | am now writing
about, had been brought up in the most
fashionable circles of society, had every ad.
vantage of education, and was indeed a
very refined lady. No one who knew bel
but admired her, and there was no crowd
but her presence cheered and animated ;
every one welcomed her, and no one wa:
more caressed and courted. She was beau
tiful, especially her soft black eyes. Bu
how changed is she now. She sets before
me with downcast expression, and begins

left her home and fond parents. But her
throat chokes up and she has to stop. She
begins again, and | could but tell her to
stop, it was more than hard hearted man
like myself could bear-tears ran down NV
cheeks and. | wept bitterly. In plain and
simple tale, she told her history in these
words:
"Some two years ago, there came to her
fathers house gentleman, for the purpose
of paying bis addresses to her, and her IA
ther strenuously opposed his coming. and
for what reasons she knew not. But the
more be was opposed, the more enraptured
she became with him, until her life was no
pleasure unless in his company. She said
her father forbid his coming in the house,
after which he would come near the place.
and she would walk out and meet him.
and while away the hours until nearly dark.
In a few months afterwards. On d dark
night whsa nuac &c - rclu sicns. v..,rs.. s..
home she left with this gentleman and was /,
married to him; FROM that hour her fathers
heart grew stone, and he drove her from
his presence, telling her she had disobeyea
him, and now he wished to have nothing 20
do with her that he no longer owned her
as his daughter; but desired her to leave
his presence, and never return. Thus she
left with her fond husband for his home.
with her heart borne down By what her
father had told her. Here they lived very
happily together for eighteen months, enjoy
ing one another's company. Since that
time her husband had fallen in compapv
with dlssipated young men who drank, and
caroused until II o'clock at night; he is
frequently drunk, and kindness is no ele
ment OF his nature, but frowns and scold-
ing 1t Is torment to live with him, Ae
treats me cruelty yet | can but love
him. de has driven me from his presence,
and being forbidden to return to my father,
have wandered offhere When alone can
but think of him, although he is so cruel
to me yet his cruelty seems but favor; his
smile my life, my heaven his frown my
wo, his night my death"
While speaking these words, | spoke,
and she paused My mind few back to
the days of her joy, and youth. aud hew
sad indeed is the change. / now b.
hold her a wasted shadow, with wo prey
ing upon her heart, her countenance
down cast, her eyes sunken, and all that
briilancy and animation gone; her hus-
band once fond and loving, now cruel
and hateful deserted by parents and
friends, no home, no nothing, but misery
and wretehedness, long days, and sleepless
nights of wo. Such is indeed the situa-
ton, in which intemperance has placed Il
poor helpless woman, well known to the
writer of this piece. From this hour warn
you to beware of it, or else some curse like
this may fall upon your heads.

CHAPTER, TX.

Months roll by, and Horace Laverne
still continues to drink, his wife in the
meantime obtaining a scanty subsistence by
her needle. She had abandoned all hope
of ever seeing her husband restored to So
briefly and responsibility, and centering all
her affections, and life itself, in her little
daughter, she bears to suffer and to live for
her sake. The calmncss of despair had
settled upon her,
And now came accounts of a recently
instituted Temperance organization, called
the Order of the Sons of Temperance. A
Grand Division had been organized in
North Carolina, and was issuing charters
to the Subordinate Divisions. Some of
the citizens of S began to talk of ap
plying for charter, and the Order became
the general topic of conversation No one
knew any thing about it. and consequently
most of them did not like it It was q
money making society," "a Yankee speeu
lation, a humoug, Fsecret order &C.
&c. Nevertheless some half dozen per
sons united and procured charter, which
arrived IN due time, and the Division wa.
shortly afterwards organized.
A beam of hope once more perpetrated
the despair-enveloped heart Of Mrs. La
verne. She urged her husband to join th,
Division, and others also attempted to per
suade him. To his wife he said, L an
afraid to take the pledge; if I were t.
break it | should feel myself disgraeeG
still more, still deeper. It is solemn
promise, and oh I too we'll know my owl
weakness. To others he would give n
satisfactory answer, but continued on t
his former course, occasionally earning
little money in some way, the most c
which vent to paying off liquor bills.
Thus matters went on a few months, an
the fair ray of hope once more faded frol
the heart of Mrs. Laverne.
It was beautiful night in the month
May that Mrs. Laverne and her daught,
were seated at little side table, the form
sewing and the latter attempting to rea
for the double purpose Of amusing b
ther and improving herself, when Nj

her. Her husband marked thechange in
her countenance and said quickly:

my fears of myself, and though [ have long

Years have passed since that eventful
night. Horace Laverne is again in bust
ness, sober, industrious, upright man !;
but he lever fails to attend the meetings
of his Division. No business detains him.
