JOHN Ii. w. HAWKINS, THE TEMPER
ANCE REFoRMeR.-We referred some
days since to the death of John II. w.
Hawkins, the temperance lecturer, who,
eighteen years ago, inaugurated the most
remarkable reformatory movement Of our
day Since that time he has labored dill
igently and faithfully in the cause of Tenn
perance, devoting himself, of late particu-
larly, to the advocacy of Prohibitory
Law. Worn out with work, he had gone
to his sons, the Rev VIM. Geo. Hawkins,
Rector of St. Johns Church, Piquea Val
ley, Pa, to pass the summer and recruit.
He was here seized with sudden illness.
which seemed much like Asiatic cholera,
and died in few hours on the 26th OF
August, within month of his 6lst birth
day. He has left behind him a widow
ard three ehildren-the former and one
of the latter, his well-known daughter
Hannah, in entirely dependent circum-
stances. His son, the Rev. Mr.. Haw-
kins, we understand, is engaged on a BIZ
ography of his father, from voluminous
correspondence and journals left in his
hands, and from this source it is hoped
that sufficient provision may be made
for the widow and daughter. 1t is not
unlikely that so distinguished an advocate
ofTemperance may find other biographers,
but as all his papers are in the hands of
his son, who has, we understand, ample
ability for his task. no other life than his
is likely to be authentic or of much value.

JUDGE NOT"

Judge not; the workings of his brain
And Of his heart thou canst not see;
What looks to thy dim eyes a stain,
In Gods pure light may only be
A scar, brought from some well-worn field,
Where thou would'st only faint and yield.
The look, the air, that frets thy sight,
May be token that below
The soul has closed in deadly fight
With some internal fiery foe,
Whose glance would scorch thy smiling grac
And cast thee shuddering on thy face
The fall thou darest to despise-
May be the slackened angels hand
Has suffered it, that he may rise
And take a firmer, Surer stand;
Or, trusting less to earthly things,
May hencetorth learn to use his wings.
And judge none lost, but wait and see
With hopeful piety, not dsdain;
The depth Of the abyss may be
The measure of the height of pain
And love and glory that may raise
This soul to God in after daysl

and gracefully removed fragrant Havana
from his lips for the purpose of exhaling
the clouds of the pertumed smoke; "no,

| Don't YOU know that love in female heart

Watching the bees in the heather bells
Merrlly swinging to and fro.
Young Lord Heron hath left his state

Stolen out of the postern gate,

Rosalind keeps the heart of child:
Gentle and tender and pure is She:

with her. 1he baby, as II determined to
do its part, was as sweet tempered as its
mamma, and cooed and laughed to the
infinite delight of Miss Wentworth, who
was, or pretended to be, exceedingly fond
Of pets' Mrs Vane's amiability was per-
fectly irresistible, and when Mr.. Vane re-
turned he found the two ladies on the
best possible terms.
When dinner was announced, Mrs
Vane called Mary to take the baby, and
rising exclaimed "Mr. Vane, give your
arm to Miss Wentworth" at the same
time appropriating the other to her own
use, "and we will hurry in to dinner
This stiff breeze gives one such an ap-
petlteW
At dinner, Mrs. Vanes first attentions
were given to Miss Wentworth, and the
least failure upon the part of Mr.. Vane
(who to tell the truth, was little absent
minded } to observe the wants of that
young lady, was reprimanded by Mrs.
Vane.
"My dear, Miss Wentworth will take
some more fowl" said Mrs Vane." Har-
ry dear, help Miss Wentworth to some of
those delicious peas. Miss Wentworth,
allow NE to assist you to some of this
sauce assure you 1t is delicious"
After dinner, the two ladies, with the
baby, retired to the ladies' cabin. and
Harry enjoyed an hours immunity from
the society of either. He retired aft to
enjoy O. his Havana. Let us hope that
its fragrance served in some measure to
calm his troubled mind.
1t was nearly dark when the ezcurtion-
lists returned, and Harry called cab for
the ladies, and directed the driver to drive
to his own residence.
Harry, my dear, how can you be SO
'impolite?" said Mrs. Vane. "We must
see Miss Wentworth home first by all
means. She has been complaining of IA
tigue for the last two hours, and must
protest against her being driven a lille or
two out of her way upon my account"
Harry was obliged to acquiesce, and
Mrs Vane had the satisfaction of leaving
Miss Wentworth at her own door, and bid
ding her most affectionate farewell, with
the hope that she had enjoyed the day,
and would experience no inconvenience
from the fatigue it had occasioned her.
Ten minutes later, Harry Vane was
stretching his weary limbs upon sofa in
his own quiet parlor. Mrs. Vane bus
tied about and prepared a delicious tea
for her loving lord. At first his vexation
betrayed him into a few unamiable re-
marks; but the real tenderness of Susie's
manner, as she handed him the smoking
cup of Souchong upon the lounge, and
soothed and petted away the headache
which oppressed him, silenced his irrita-
bility, and won him back to good humor
That was the last Of Harry Vane's
wanderings. The name of Miss Went
worth was never mentioned in his house;
and save his penitent confession, (made
that night with his weary head lying up
on her bosom, ''Susie, [ have wronged
you; will you forgive me?' to which her
only answer was the kiss of peace and
trust and glance more eloquent than
any Speech there was no allusion to his
faults
Susie is gray-haired now, and her fail
ing strength is supported by the tender
ness of her grand daughters and it may
be that to them she sometimes repeats the
story of the WOMAN WHO WOULD Mt BE
JEALOUS. .g
