Mr.. Laverne seemed to have partially re-

were aroused and uncontrolled by reason. -
With the ferocity of tiger he sprung al

mighty struggle that is slowly and surely
wearing life away, but first depriving it of
all the tender endearments that make it
desirable. In the public streets we see the
reeling, staggering forms Of men who are
drunk, and we hear their mad cursings aud
rawlings, their obscene songs and senseless
babble but do we think of their wives
and children do we remember that hearts
and affections are twined about them, and
that woman's bosom bleeds for them7 Do
we follow them to their homes and iresides
and read the anguish Of gentle woman 8
The cause of Temperance is the cause of
woman. On her falls the most whitening,
blighting effects Of intemperance, not only
in subjecting her to hardships and expo
sure, but in rending asunder the ties Of do
mestic love in wringing dark drops of an
guish from her tender and affectionate
heart; in changing the object of her love
from one worthy of it to one unworthy in
throwing back in gall and bitterness the
pure stream of love that flows forth to warm
and nourish another heart in preventing
that reciprocation of love on which the
soul ofwoman feeds: and in making her own
bosom the depository of all the cares that
should be shared with another Woto the
man that thus crushes out her life and con
signs her to an untimely grave Wo to
the man that, forgetful Of his vows before
high Heaven to cherish and protect her,
makes the wife of his bosom the victim of
his own baseness and degradation The
curse of the Eternal God is upon him, aud
but for the prayers of that gentle, forgiv-
ing wife, he would not long be permitted
to cumber the earth with his vile carcass.
Reader, forgive US this DEPRESSION. We
pass on.

The jail was large, gloomy looking,
stone building. The windows we're
made strong by great iron bars fasten-
ed across them. But the inside was
most gloomy. 1t was divided into very
small rooms, only FIVE feet wide and
eight long. Each room had cross
barred iron door, with strong bolts and
locks; and when the jailor opened or
shut the door, the hinges grated fright
fully on the ear. =.

king and passing bad money and the
judge said he must 60 to prison, and
stay there as long as he lived. But he
was SO sick that he could not be re-
moved to the prison.
Poor fellow, once he could play in
the green fields, down by the cool spring,
or under the shady trees around his
fathers house, or, when he was tired,
he could go home and lay his head up
on his mothers knee, and rest himself;
or, if he was sick, she would sit down
by his bed and kindly nurse him. But
now, how different shut up in a dark,
gloomy cell, with no one to care for
him, and all around, cursing and swear
ing, and the most horrid noises Ohe
felt very wretched!

SEVEN DRINKING FAMILIEs.-The fol-
lowing startling statements are made by
the New York Cabinet, respecting seven
different families in single town:
Their parents were moderate drinkers
Can heads of families read these facts with
out concern
The first had one child, daughter. A
great sum was expended on her education.
She died from the effects of strong drink.
The second had an only son. He was
educated with great care and at great ex-
pense, but was killed by wine.
The third had four sons and one daugh-
ter. The daughter is drunkard, and one
son has gone to drunkard's grave.
The fourth had three sons. One died
of intemperance, one was killed in duel,
and the other is a drunkard.
The fifth had son who killed himself
by drinking, and two step sons are drunk
ards on wine.
The sixth had FIVE sons. -Four are drunk
ards, and one through the influence of Ii
quor is an idiot.
The seventh had five sons and three
nephews Four of the sons have been kill
ed by alcohol, and the fifth is drunkard /;
and the three nephews are in the drunk
ards grave.

DEATH IN A RAILROAD Coach
On Wednesday night last, Mrs. Lee,
of Sumter in this State, died in a coach
on the Wilmington and Manchester
Railroad, between Wilmington and Fair
Bluff.
The particulars as far as we have
been able to learn them are as follows:
She was laboring under pulmonary af-
lection, in which condition she visited
New York in company with some friends
and was returning to her home. The
first indications of the fatal termination
of her disease was manifested soon af-
ter leaving Wilmington. She rose and
expressed her fears that they had ta-
ken the wrong train and were lost
But being assured that this was not
the case, she was seated and remained
quiet for a while; she then became
restless and upon the enquiry, what
she wanted, replied she was about to
undress and lie down, but was easily
persuaded to resume her seat. Not
long after this she was found to be
dead--having passed away SO quietly
as not to excite observation for some
time-CheraU Gazette.
The Lnventor Of Pickled Herring.
Some of our most valuable inventions
are of SO simple character, that the
only wonder about them seems to be
that they were never found out before.
1t is said that the Emperor of Russia
has just returned from visit to the lit
tie towns of Borgo on the Baltic, where
ne took part in the ceremony of laying
the foundation of monument to the
memory of the fisherman Beukels, who
first introduced the plan of preserving
herrings by sailing and packing them.
Formerly the vast number herrings
which were captured ON the northern
and western shores of the empire were
lost to the world by the rapid decom-
position of the fish. Beukels conceived
the happy idea of sailing them, and
having instructed his neighbors how to
preserve them by this process, went
himself to Findland, and taught the
Fins how to deal with the fish. As a
reward for his public spirit, the name
of Beukels has been handed down to
nosterity as benefactor of mankind.
The Emperor Charles the Fifth visited
his tomb; Peter the Great granted
nension to one Of his descendants, and
now Alexander has laid the foundation
stone of a monument to be erected to
his honor.

Intemperance is to be measured not BY
the quantity of wine, but by the effect on
the constitution; not by cups, but conse-
quences. Let no man fancy because he
does not drink much that he is not sot.
Pope said, that to him more than one glass
was debauch and every man who habit
ually takes more than his stomach can bear,
sooner or latter arrives at those miseries
which are the effects of hard drinking
Every healthy topper is decoy-duck, and no
more proves that health is safe in intemper-
ance than an unwounded soldier that life is
secure in battle. "Strength of nature in
youth, says Lord Bacon, "passes over ma
ny excesses which are owing man till his
age" Drunkenness, amongst persons Of
character and education, is considered, as
it ught to be, at once sinful and degrading.
The consequence has been increased lon
gevity, and the disappearance among the
upper grades of society of a host of distem-
pers that follow in the train of inebrity.

richest man the greatest stake in these
things2 These are all very plain princi-
ples-and it is equally plain that no school
system can flourish, whatever its money or
means, without perpetual vigilance and care
manifested BY parents and by the public,
whose interest is. vastly greater than their
trouble-and why then ever urge such I'M
worthy reasons for indifference to the
greatest concern of freemen1 7 Surely, as
We said, the least reflection will teach US
the absurdity, not to say criminal folly, of
such excuses for inexcusable negligence.
