Look ut the man of mfoxicafion, reeling and staggering home from some public place of resort, a bloated curse to himself; bis family, and all mankind.

I —gcr.WS Hashed in liis C ye— eloquence dropped from his lips end bis friends were anxiously look to a period when he should clothe himself with fame and renown. Hut alas! iitnv sod 1- tJi< rev else —m the noon-tide oi joy—in the very day-spring ot fortune and honour—even then, lay lurking in his path the demon of desolation. His friends must be merry with him—— they must gaily quaff the lie wing howl to i.is success in life, Soun the habit of loitering at these store houses of ruin a,id despair became fixed—soon the serpent of the still more subtle than that which beguiled Eve, wound its venomous lungs u round his very soul! And whut is he now—despised and scorned by all mankind—sunk below the level ol the bi utc that wallows in the mire —his home a desolation— his-starv ing, naked children, crying biiUuly tor a Hint sol of bread, fjy- partner ol his foiincr joys mourning in the bitterness of her soul, over the i;.e mory of'days when the suij seemed to rise hut lor her happiness,— when .wrapped in the enchantments of fan cy, this world seemed a weedless’ gulden—all above vyas sunshine, anti uu beneath was flowers. Now vvhitt is her situation—pale and wan heail-broken—she is fast sinking to the silent tomb, where the wicked cease from troubling, mid the weary ere ut rest. Hook at the husband-, oiiec affluent and happy, respected and beloved. Now his hands tremb ling his lips quivering Jus face Covered with wounds and bruises, his house stripped, and himself a beggar. A few more short days, and the alms-house receives him, co vered with filth and disease, uud racked with excruciating pain—he breathes iiis lust, and thexlods of Mic valley cover him!— J\. Y. Amulet. WOMAN. To the honour, to the eternal hon our of her sex, be it said, that in the path of duty no sacrifice is with them too high or too dear, Nothing is with them impossible, but to shrink from what love, honour, innocence, or religion requires. The voice ol pleasure may pass by unheeded, but the voice of affliction, never. The chamber of the sick, the pillow of the dying, the vigils of the dead, the al tars of religion, never missed the sympathies of woman. Timid tlio’ she be, and so delicate that the winds of heaven may not top roughly visit her; on such occasions she loses all sense of danger, and assumes a pre ternatural courage, which knows not, and fears not consequences. Then she displays that umiiiimicd spirit, which neither courts difficulties, nor evades them; that resignation which litters neither murmurs por regret; and that patience in suffering, which seems victorious pyt-fi over death it self.—Judge Story, . FRIENDS. “Like worldly treasures, our best friends arc sometime; ficciifui; for as riches anti honour will flee, and leave a ijian destitute and powerless, so those, that are apparently our friends, will often forsake us in times of danger and distress. ’When we choose a friend, we ought to select one upon whom wo cun rely in all situations of life. If we are in afflu ence, in our reverses of fortune lie may relieve or even comfort us. Li able to the tossing influence of for tune, it seems to have been, in tiic beginning, ordained by Providence, that human nature should (jp suppli ed with a stair to support him—a Friend to relieve him in adversity, and comfort him in affliction,” A FRAGMENT, “To enter this world without a welcome —to leave it without an a d.ieu— -to cmief, stud be unequal to your sufferings—to stand a Sad ami silent monument amid tlie joys of o thers, which you cannot understand nor conceive of—to carry within your bosom th.e buried seeds of happiness, which arc never to grow, of intelli gence which is never to burst forth, of usefulness, w hich is never to ger minate—to find even your presence afflictive, and know not whether you excite compassion or horror a ” bole existence without one cheering sound—without one welcome accent —without one exhilarating thought —w ithout one recollection oftlie past j —without one hope of the future j Oh! what a cloud of wretchedness, covers, surrounds and over.v!..,!.|s: such a deplorable- victim of aoriow.” j “Now, t ’ throw over stick a be-1 niglitcd being the sweet rays of in telligence—to open the intellect, and ‘ to let it gusli forth in streams of light j and joy—to rous*i the affection, that! they may know upd love (fed, the I giver of aII things, and utcid-gj i;i ffli! his cliaslisemcnis—to enlighten tliej soul, that it may see its origin and I destiny—to cause the lips to smile, ( though they cannot speak; the cye ‘ to glisten with oilier emotions than ‘ Itiose ot sorrow ; and the mind lo tin- ! demand, although it cannot hear, Oli! w hat a beautiful supplement to the benevolence of J leaven!” liELIO ION. -•‘Engl't ns the morning; stnr in the radiance of Iht- sun-beauisv, com&th titft htoapii o! i tinny j lality.” Helio-ion, the child of heaven, wears an apgelic smile, and is dis tinguished by all |he graces of its divine original. Elevated and as piring, yet winning- and attractive, benevolent, gracious, courteous and condescending; her features formed to complacency; her voice attuned to harmony; iter eyes shining with be niguity, and all her motions, though composed arid steady, are yet grace ful and unassuming.—Religion e rccts to her votaries a temple sacred to immortality. The good man dreads not death nor dissolution.— invited to heaven, and called to glo ry, he tjoars .above this dim spot man calls earth, wad is lost in the infinite, , the boundless, the incomprehensible ! progression of eternity, fliaf opens to his prospect. Religion is divine vi gour jn the soul, triumphing over the darkness of nature, and teaching us acquiescence in the allotments of Providence, it is the image of God stamped upon human nature, refin ing its baseness, enriching its po verty, heeling its maladies, and con verting its very wants and miseries into abundance, happiness and glory. Without thjs divine-treasure, man is poor indeed, Amidst opulence, bow needy! amidst titles and honours, how ignoble and vain! in a palace, bow miserable! how contemptible on a throne! True religion is the source of hap piness, the support of society, and the dying man's consolation. It is the guide of youth, nnd the stay of old age. It is the fairest flower that o pous oi) earth, tlie*sweetcst incense that ascends to the skies. SheritPs Sales.
