A Fathers Letter to q Dissipated Son.

A Fathers Letter to a Dissipated Son.
The following letter, taken from the
Covington Commonwealth, was written by
father to son of dissipated habits:
MYDEAR Son What would you think
of yourself If you should come to our
bedside every night, and waking US up,
tell us you would not allow us to sleep
any more? That is what you are doing !;
and that is why am up. Your mother
| is nearly worn out with turning from side
to side, and with signing because you
| won't let her sleep. That mother who
you in your childhood, and looked with
| pride AID joy upon you as you were grow
ing up to manhood, as she counted on the
| comfort and support you would give her
| in her declining years.
We read Of most barbarous manner in
| which one of the Oriental nations pun
ishes some of It's criminals. It is by cut
ting the flesh from the body in small pieces
slowly cutting it off the limbs, begin
ming with the fingers and toes, one joint
ut time, till the wretched victim dies.
That is just what you are doing-you are
killing your mother by inches. You have
| planted many of the white hairs that are
appearing SO thickly in her head before
the time. Your cruel hand is drawing
the lines of sorrow on her dear face, max
ing her look prematurely old. You
might as we'll stick your knife in her body
every time you come near her, for your
conduct is stabbing her to the heart. You
might as we'll bring her coffin and force
her into it, for you are pressing her to-
ward it with very rapid steps.
Would you tread on her body if pros
trated on the floor? And yet with un-
! grateful foot you are treading on her
heart and crushing out life and joy-no,
[ need not say Joy for that is word we
have long ceased to see, because you have
taken it away from US. Of course we
have toineet our friends with smiles, but
they little know of the bitterness within.
You have taken the roses out Of your sis
ter's pathway and scattered thorns in
stead: and from the pain they inflict.
scalding tears are often seen coursing down
her cheeks. Thus you are blighting her
| life as well as ours.
And what can you promise yourself fol
the future? Look at the miserable, bloat-
ed, ragged wretches, whom you meet ev-
cry day, and see in them an exact picture
of what you are fast coming to, and will
be in few years. Then in the end a
drunkard's grave and a drunkard's doom
for the Bible, says, mo drunkard shall
inherit the kingdom of God" Where
then will you be? If not in the king
dom of God, you must be somewhere else.
Will not these considerations induce
you to quit at once, and for all time?
And may God help you, for he can and
will if you earnestly ask it.
Your affectionate, but sOrroWstricken,
| father.

for his rum. Then he bought the
vessel from them and was fitting it
out to send Adams TO China again
and bring back nothing but rum
when, just the day before they were
ready to start a Buenos Ayrean
man-of-war appeared off the coast
and seized the vessel. The Cap
tain accompanied by file of ma
rines landed and walked over to
Kailua to Kamehameha and ex.
planned how matters stood and Ka-
mehameha delivered up all the crew
of the vessel to him. They were
brought in slung on poles like so
many pigs, each on the shoulders of
two Hawaiians. All the church orna-
ments and vessels were asked for
and given up but nothing else was
demanded and the man-of-war sailed
for Honolulu in search of the sup
posed ring-leader. Here they found
Davis vessel and searched it but to
his great JOY failed to find or take
his bar gold. But their man had
gone to Kauai and there they went
after him. After some time he was
delivered to them and shot on the
beach and buried at low-ti,le. Then
they sailed away and never returned.
Never since the death of Kameha.
meha has this treasure been dis
covered and it is known not to have
been used in his lifetime. Many
believe it to be hidden in caves in
Hawaii and some have spent much
time in searching for the hidden
treasure of Kamehameha.
