CHARACTER. cabinet Of Natural His
tory, We once saw curious and interesting
specimen. II was sapling, around which
in the early stages Of its tender growth,
vine had twined and wound it's way up
among the tiny branches. The snpling grew
on 70 little space in strengthand 81 mmeiry !;
but the vine, the insidious vine, tightening
its iron embrace as the tree expanded, sunk
deep into the solid wood, crushing out, as it
were, the very life, till sapless. dwarfed and
wthered, j. stood with the deep cut winding
spiral on its trunk, to tell the cause of its
untimely fate.
And as we looked upon II we could not
help thinking how apt an illustration it fur
nished in too many Instances of the charac.
ters of men,
Every day we meet and are thrown into
/ the society of those whose willis have been
weakened, intellects dwarfed, and God like
aspirations withered, all by the insidous
growth of evil habits and unholy passions.
And, Oh! how quiet almost unnoticed is
their growth, till serpent like they coil their
folds around all that is noble aud man like,
and the poor victim wakes TO find himself
powerless in their terrible grasp, from which
he struggles in vain TO escape.
Even as we write melancholy instance
comes fresh to onr memory. 1t is that Of n
young man who but few days ago, bloated
and disiigured, stood in the bar OF our City
Court, charged with the most bcastly intoxi
cation He had been picked up in state Of
nsensibilty in the vicinity Of one of the
lowest haunts Of vice which curse the city.
That young man was once a youth of talent
and promse--the idol of fond parents, who
gave him every advantage which could DO
desired for Improvement. He was noble and
ingenious, with a mind that grasped and
solved with ease the most difficult problems,
or mastered the most tedious details. lie was
realizing the fondest hopes Of parents and
friends. But in an hour least expected the
cup Of happiness was dashed from their lips,
and one OF bitterness and despair became
their portion.
| We will not repeat the tale 50 often told
with all the sickening details. Speaking the
single word lntemperance, the curtain parts
and all becomes manifest. You gaze down
I along the trcacherous and deceitfnl path
which has been trod by so many lost spirits,
and there, with step still tending onward,
you may behold him.
! All, vice y how often does II coil itself
around the soul, till The proudest intellects
arc humbled in the dust Turn Mhereyer WE
