THE pRUNKARD's WIFE.

In the whole range Of English literature there
is no brighter gem than the following by the late
James a, Percival, The author, though unwed
had observed the heartrcnding result ofabandon-
ment and drunkenness, of debauchery, profigacy
and mock burals ut night when the poor wife
was half crazed over the ruin liquor had wrought
and his beautiful and impressive verse, thus told
the story Of many a broken heart and afflicted
wife and mother:
lie comes not-Iha watched the sun so down,
But yet he comes not Once il was not so.
lie thinks not how these bitter tears do flow,
The while he holds the riot in the town,
Yet he will come and chide, and shall weep,
And he will wake my infant from his sleep,
To blend his feeble wailing with my tears
Oh! how love mothers watch to keep,
Over these sleeping eyes; that smile which cheers
MY heart though sunk in sorrow fixed and deep
had husband once who loved pe-now
lie ever n frown upon his brow
And feeds his passion ON a wanton's lip
As bees from laurel flowers poison sip.
And yet cannot hate! Oh there were hours
When could hang forever in his eyes.
And time, who stole with silent witness by,
Strewed as he hurried on, his path with flowers.
loved him then-he loved me to- My heart
Still finds its fondness kindled as he smiles;
The memory Of our loves will ne'er depart;
And though he often stngs me with dart,
Venomed and barbed, and wastes upon the vile
Caresses which his babe and mine should share
Though he shouldspurn mel will calmly bear
His madness; and should sickness come and lay
It's paralysing hand upon him, then
| would with kindness all my wrongs repay,
Until the innocent should weep and say,
How injured and how faithful | had been.

THE ESCAPE.

The sun was setting to repose in the
brightly clouded west, and his closing
eyes rested on tho lofty castle towers,
casting their long shadows on the plain
beneath. 1t had been glorius day
in old England, and now sort of Ian
guor settled on nature, and it seemed
as though sigh of relief breathed
from her wenried breast as the glori-
Gus ambassador of light departed
The noble trees nodded their plumes
and talked in stately tones to the young
scions at their feet, and the gentle
fiowerets lovingly entwined their deli
cate tendrils. The joyous streams dan
eed and gurgled, tossing their wavelets
to the bright gossafhers that fioated
above. 1t was sweet scere, and so
thought noble prisoner within those
gloomy walls. He was little more
than a boy, yet his deep gray eyes
were lighted with the fire of proud
thoughts. His lips were compressed,
and the lines around them evinced
firmncss. His brow was prominent.
and the hair which clustered curlingly
around his temple was there thin and
retreating. He was of middle stature,
slightly, but strongly built. His cheeks
and lips were colorless, for he was but
just recovered from a severe Illness
In this situation we find Edward Ill,

favorite, the wicked and ambitious Nor

regent of England, till her son should
reach the age of manhood, was in Of

determined at any rate to sustain her.

EAST SAGINAW MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST H. 1863

The after career of this prince is too
well known to need repetition. He
found his country suffering under the
yoke of his tyrant mother and her par
amour Mortimer. He afterwards wres-
ted from them their power, and Nor
timer suffered the death he so richly
merited. Isabella was condemned to
imprisonment for life, which she suffer-
ed for the period of twenty-five years.

that neither Mr.. Shers nor yourself desires to
misrepresent me, hope you will do me the
Justice to print In your next issue the following
staten ent OF what really did say In the re-.
marks that made In debate to which Mr.. Stiers
alluded: Mr.. Dresel, in his speech at the OPEN
log Of the discussion, now pending In the House,
alluded to bis having been driven from his ma
tive land because Of the tyranny Of his rulers,
as he hoped to fnd an asylum where he might
enjoy the liberty Of speech under Democratic
institutionsj but the present Abolition Lincoln
Government sought TO inaugurste Q ,0orse than

and bastiles, etc., etc. In closing my remarks
