The Poor. Drunkard.

How few pity hill, and care for ehnn?-
When he was o young, stroa6 man, and had
means, or the ability to produce means, he
had friends on all hands. But now that he
is besotted End drunken, friends haze left
him. He.i is the victim of fraud, the butt of
ridicule, the siabloA of scorn and contempt
and the .loathing Of a community. Society
damns him TO disgrace and infamy-the law
Furnishes him as a nuisance aud a Sssrant.
Why SOP He has brought it upon him.
self" says the multitude. The assertion
may be. true, and it may be false. Who
told himto take the first step? Who en-
Outraged him, in his downfall, to drink?
Who tempted and scduced him by his efforts
to indulge freely? Are there rot those who
did il, and does not some of the curse lie at
their doors ? Certainly. &
The judgement Of society is wholly wrong.
The miserable drunkard is blamed and dis
carded, while the rich liq0cr seller, who is
the chief instrument in his ruin, is courted
and respected Look at him as he mingles
among the gay or the sober portion of gem
sess g Perhaps he rs caused the
SELF. Their blosd cries out against him.
God has put his mark upon hirh Alas j!
the poor drunkard. Alas ! the rich liquor
seller.

Bible Gems.

The sacred writings are the5most eKtraor-
binary OF all writings among men. Their lit
erature is of all ages, their PHILOSOPHY is
the only true system, it traces everything ny
to an adequate cause the science, in gener-
tire sovereignty, and of man in his relations
to man.
We may say CT the Word Of God, it is the
bread of life. 1t is the river of the water OF
life, proceeding from the, throne Of God and
of the Lamb. 1t is the tree of life, yielding
its fruits twelve times in the year-the tres
whose leaves are for the healing of the ma
tons.
The Bible is the moral power that moves
the world. Its mighty influence is seen i'll
the civilization which it has produced. Those
nations that respect the Bible must stand
on the proudest eminence in the midst OF
surrounding degradation and gloom. The
study of the Sacred Volume nas given ali
impulse to the minds of men which has en-
abled them to fathom the oceans Gepths and
j sport upon the stormy waves; to soar up ana
find where the home of the lightning isaana
play with its terrible fires.
The destinies OF she globe are in the keep
ing of those nations which hold the Bible as
a sacred book, having God Tor it's Author,
and the salvation of men for its object. To
them is committed the worlds civilization,
illumination, and evangelizatitn.f They ar.
the mirrors which God has employed to re-
fleet the light of heaven upon those who are
sitting in the darkness and gloom Of super
s%tltion, paganism and DEATH

The Ladies of Bertle. ,

The Ladies OF Bells.
Mr.. EDIToR As the pstrloHsh III ueVo'eoncSs
! dence has become ne theme ano admiration of every
weIl-wisher TO 1<he cause of the South, [ have re-
solved that thgLaiies of BERTHE shall not be passed
by altogetherl unnOticed knowing as | do, (by ex-
pcrience1 that the world has never witnessed more
exalted Datrlotfsm than has been displayed by them.
For two months during my experiences in camp, it
t1s Beg my happy lot to sojourpfa Berthe, and l
think speak the sentiments of TIE whole Battalion
when 1 say that it has been the most pleasant period
of the war to US all, though our little force was in
constant danger of being overwhelmed on cut off at
any time. But to the point. What [ wishto say is,
that OR circumstances we're such that, had we
been IN many places we would doubtless have suffer
ed many inconvenience which we were entirely
strangers to there.
Our three companies had been detached from
the regiment, carrying with us no clothes except what
we had on, with the prospect Of returning soon but
were detained for want of forces to relieve us. Our
tattered socks were lain aside and their places sup
piled by the delicate labors of the fair hands of the
ladies OF BERTHE; and we were often invited to par
take of the rich viands which their tables afforded our
clothing washed and every other assistance rendered
