MISCELLANEOUS
Drunk? That's ALI"

"Wlat is it2" asked Of a crowd Of men
upon the sidewalk, from whom, as approach
ed them, l heardrepeated shouts Of merriment.
What is there 50 amusing here 2"
Why don't you see r. was the reply, " the
fellow is drunk, that's all"
Yes, did see. 1t was young man who
in different circumstances might have been
called sood-iooking. lie had evidently been
well dressed a few hours before though now
bis hat was battered and his clothes soiled !;
and it made him still more pi;iaJie sight to
sec the evidence that lie had come from
good home lie sat on the dusty walk, his
back leaning against the brick wall, his head
wagging, lis eyes winking, an idiotic smile on
his face. As he occaionaIly made some sense
less remark, the laugh went up from the
crowd.
4 police-oficcr soon came, who appeared
to understand the case, and, lifting the poor
degraded youth to his feet, be led him of to
lis home, or some place where lie could get
sober
lie was druuL that's all
And is not that enough thought I II
that boy-for he was scarcely more than e
boy-Las a mother worthy Of the name; if he
has a father who knows what it is to b4 dis
houored by a child; if he has brothers oi SIS
tcrs, will they not think it enough for the 2gn
or brother to come home in charge Of an officer,
who will explain, as he leaves him at the
door; 81 found him drunk in tie street.
That's ALL All! boys, to have such a story
of some OF you, would be enough to break
your mothers heart, to deepen the lines Of
care upon your fathers brow, as business or
labor could never deepen them, to bring from
your sisters eyes tears such as they had never
shed.
How many hopes have been blasted, how
many sorrows have been caused, how many
graves have been filled by in,emperauce.
