Moderate Drinking.

Let no man say, when he thinks Of the
drunEard ruined in health and spoiled in
intellect, II can never fall so.' He
thought as little of falling in his earlier
years. The promise Of his youth was
as bright as yours; and eVeh after he be-
gan his downward course, he was as un-
suspicious as the firmest around him, and
would repel as Indignantly the admoni-
ton beware OF fintemperance. The danger
of this vice lies in its almost impercepti-
BILE approach. Few who perish by it have
done so by its 6rsl excess. Youth does
not suspect drunkenness in the spark
ling beverage, which quickens all its
susceplibiIities Of Joy. The invalid does
not see it in the cordial which gives new
tone to his debilitated organs. The man
of thought and genius detects no palsy
ing poison in the draught which seems a
spring of Inspiration to intellect and i'm
aginatiou: The lover Of social pleasure
little dreams that the glass that animates
conversation will sink him TOO low for u.
Intercourse in which he now delights
Iulempeiance comes with hoiseless step
and binds the first cords with 4 touch Too
light to be left: This truth of mournful
experience should be treasured by all, ,and
influence the arguments and habits Of So
clAl and domestic life in every class Of the
community DR.. Channin9.

"HaDdsoms is that hand ONE does, hold

of those around you, and, my word for it,
you will not lack kind words or admira-
ton. Loving aud pleas mt associations

This was we'll understood by the old
pain ers. In their pictures of Mary, the

the affe ,tinns, uniting the awe and the

utterable tenderness, of young maternity;

'rN.s' Amid the summer glow; ..

And the sister in the wood,
Aud the yellow sun nowor by the brook,
In autu mn beauty stood
Till fell the frost from the clear, cold heaven,
go a. Az fall the plsgue on mon,

And twinkle In tho smoky light
The ewaters OF the riil, ..'

And then think of one who In
b'iat Her youthful beauty died,
,,. The fair, heek blossom that grew up
"a s5 And faded by my side;
In the cold moist earth we laid herr
,..,.-s When the forest cast the leaf'
raY And we wept that one so lovely

When minds are not in unison, the
words of love itself are but the rattling Of
the chain that tells the victim he is bound.
