James appeared very penitent, reflected
upon no one but himself, yet he slid he
thought boys could not be brought up too
strictly; that George and himself had been
out nights and absent days engaged in al
most everything bad, which, had they been
more strictly managed, they could not have,
done; that he had often felt bad, and wish
ell to stop, bat George had prevented him.
Mrs. Miner and her husband were now
plunged into the depths of woe. James
wcntimmedia;ely to sea; and though George
had not been tried, yet they knew he was
as false in his principles aud more confirm
el IN vice than james, and much worse
character, inasmuch as he evinced no pen
itence, bat a sullen, dogged determination
to do as he pleased still, and not be con
trollcd.
at length Mr.. Miner concluded the on
" thing he could do with him was to send
him with very pious, excellent captain Of
ship-an uncle of his-on voyage. Thus
the two beautiful boys, on whom Mrs Mi
ncr had looked with mothers delight on
May-day, thinking they would "get through
the world by their shrewdness as we'll as by
good principles" were banishel frcm her
IN disgrace, and one of them forever; for,
tendcrly brought up as he had been at home,
and not submitting to his fate very cheer
fully, George soon sank under change OF
condition, aud was cut down in the spring
time of his days.
Often, at night, when the winds howlcd,
woul! Mrs. Miner shudder, and, as she
thought Of the two sweet babes she had
once there nestled to her bosom, who were
now far away, buifeting the waves and the
winds, scaiding tears would 0cdcw her pill
low-tears not unminglel with self-accus-
ings that she had not looked more to their
real good than to appearance.
Mr. Miner said but little; bat the deep
fountains Of his spirit had been s;irrcd-al-
most broken up; and as two other boys,
the very image of the absent at their age.
now clambyrcd up his knee and ispcd opa-
pa, the remembrance his irst-born would
almost unman him, and he could not enjoy
their infantile prattlo for the sad reflections
20 which they gave rise.
He often said: 'The duties Of the paren-
tai relation cannot be neglected with impu
nifty; that, above every other duty, rises
paramount-aud the spring of every other
important attribute of characer-that of

After this exercise, as might he expect-

bert went TO meet the little girls. while
James made himself ready for his horse
back ride, having received his mother
whip, with request not TO lose it. rs. being
birthday present from himself, she valued
it highly.
A sudden shower brought them both
back very soon, however, with Jamos's
friend, and they were obliged, by the rain,
to remain housed all the forenoon. Mrs.
Miner, though in delicate health, with some
ingenuity invented satisfactory amusements
for them all, aud al early dinner, to which
she invited the young friend, finished, very
pleasantly, one-half of the day.
Notwithstanding the disappointment of
all in not "going a-Maying," and of Mrs.
Miner, too, whose husband had remained
from his business to take her to ride, they
were all cheerful and happy. Wcll-reru-
lated tempers prevented grumbling a, what
