It was midnight, and o'er all the earth the sable curtain of night was thrown, shrouding everything in dark ness except a few stars only, which twinkled in the bright firnament above to guide the weary traveller on his way. All was gloomy and still, except the mournful wail of the Autumn wind, which swept along ; the rustle of the withered leaves in solemn cadence, keeping time with the cheerless blast. It was on such a night as this, seated in one corner of a lonely cottage upon one of our Western prairies, sat a poor mother over the dying couch of an only child, a bright youth of two summers. Mrs. Smith, for this was the name of the mother, was once the child of af fluent, influential parents. All the happiness wealth could afford was once hers, and little did she think, iu those happy days, it should ever be her lot to be placed in the situation that we now find her. An object of univer sal homage, the star of fashion, and the belle of the town where she lived, it is not to be wondered at, that she re ceived an extraordinary share of atten tion. Among her admirers, was one, him self the star of fashion, young, talent ed, and beautiful. Arthur Smith, for such was the young mans name, first met Amanda Weston at a brilliant par ty iu the town of C . The hall was magnificently lighted, the music of the most enlivening, enchanting kind, and airry forms floated about that brilliant apartment, hut among them Amanda Weston shone transcendent. As the bright luminary of heaven, in tlie glory of its noonday effulgence, shines superior ta the fair queen of night, so did Amanda eclipse the fair ones present on the occasion alluded to. She floated through the mazes of the merry dance witli such grace aud case as at once to charm the young and talented Arthur. An opportunity was sought and obtained for tlie introduc tion; he was charmed, determined to address her—did so—proposed—and was accepted. Let us now introduce to tlie reader, Mr. Arthur Smith, who is to form such an important part in our story. He was tlie son of parents who, though not wealthy, were far from being poor. Tlie Smith family moved in tlie highest circles notwithstanding, Hie good hu mour of Arthur's Father, his gentleness . of disposition, and withal his profes sion, which was that of a Lawyer, and a justly celebrated one, too, wore his , passports, perhaps, to the refined circles of the beautiful village of o—At the age of nine, Arthur Smith was sent to an excellent institution of learning, where it was determined lie should re main until his education was completed, or at least until lie should be prepared ' to commence to study of a profession, which Mr. Smith, his Father, wasanxions he should do. For twelve long years was Arthur Smith compelled to remain at the institution alluded to, and it was not until the expiration of his twenty first year, that lie was allowed to return to ids home. He did so at length, laden with tlie highest academic honors, having received his degree, and shared the first honor of the institution he had just left. On his return home tlie subject of what profession he should chose arose. His father was in favor and indeed urged him to adopt tlie Legal. His Mother preferred the Clerical, but j Arthur was determined to adopt the Medical, or none : his inclinations lead I him time; the deep hidden mysteries of medical science pleased him, the task ! of studying them would, 10 him, be a j matter of pleasure as well as profit.— j Mr. Smith finding it impossible to j change the views of his son, finally ac ! quiesced in his determination, and at | once commenced preparations for his ! departure to some respectable medical institution. The world wide renown : of Hie medical School of Philadelphia, induced Arthur Smith to repair to that i great Medical emporium to complete his education. After a stay of three years, .the pre , scribed term of study, and having freely and satisfactorily complied with all the . 1 equipments of the Hoi lege La we before one can graduate, he received the de gree of M. D., and immediately return- ' ed home to receive the congratulations of his friends. Arthur Smith and. Amanda Weston again met in the same brilliantly lighted hail, where they met for tlie first time. Os Arthur Smith’s character we have as yet said nothing, but he should be known in some other light than the , Student or .even the youug M. 1). Lively and cheerful in his disposition, fond of amusement, and the society of Ladies, passionately fond of music, of an ex cellent disposition, and exceedingly - ! agreeable manners, besides having the 1 advantage of the title of M. D., no per- i* son perhaps in the world was lietter cal- * collated to captivate the young heart of s Amanda Weston. £ eooo .00000000 ,c Arthur Smith and Amanda Weston are again presented to the view of the ! \ reader. The fair Amanda had become a thr wife of Arthur. At tlie suggestion Js of his parents and friends, he opened) an office at his Father's home, assured that soon his practice must he exten sive, but alas, like many others, lie found no honor in his own country.— He failed in his business ; indeed he was reduced to poverty. The parents of his wife by some tin-; toward event, had lost the lust penny! of their immense estate. With the cates of a family upon him, and bowed down with giief by his own misfortunes, he sought relief in the maddening howl. His destiny, per haps, was forever sealed—the fates, were against him, and he resolved to avoid tlie slmme and disgrace which he had attached to his name, and brought, upon his family, by removing to the West. He did so, hut even there, in that land of promise, fortune did not smile upon him. He still continued his mad dening career, which threatened soon to overwhelm him in a vortex of indis cribable misery. In vain did his wife lieg him to de : sist. The once fair Amanda; oh! where it she who could contemplate her ! condition now, and not shed tears of emotion at her sad fate? Once sur rounded by all that can make life de sirable, now doomed to poverty, ruin and disgrace. Her wasted form and sunken eye, as she stooped over tlie ■ coucli of her dying child, told the tale • that she, Mke her. babe, was fast has . tening to that dreary home, from • whence no traveler returns. 1 Behold the contrast. N’o roses now i j bloomed in her damp, unbraided locks; !! no decorating pearl now surrounds her j ! wan neck ; no sparkling ray of antici -1; pated triumph flashed from her sunken eye. Pride, vainty, vain glory, strength, ; beauty, all were gone. “Oh, my God, am I doomed to lose t my darling boy," murmured she, in au ■' j cents that were startling. Ho sympa • i tinning voice met hers, naught save the • winter's wind, ns it moaned wistfully ; by replied. Her thoughtless husband, 1 in his drunken revelries, had forgot, i shall 1 sav, forgot his child, who soon - ; was to sleep the sleep of death ’ The > ; poor mother, there in a lonely cottage > j by the river’s side, no one near to com fort and cheer her in this sad hour of ■ affliction, wiped the damp from the 1 ; brow of her boy, and kneeling by the ■side of tire lowly coucli, breathed, in I !tones of angelic sweetness, “Holy • ! Father, thy will be done.” - ! She arose, find from the calmness of - its features, a ray of hope, like the > I lightning’s flash in its dreadful course, ' |flitted across her mind : hut, alas, that M sleep, which she supposed her. darling ’ had fallen into, was that blessed sleep ' from which none ever wake to weep. : With her own hands, she closed tlie - eyes of her boy, and prepared him as , best a poor woman in her situation ' could, for the cold mansions of the dead. ' After performing this sad rite, she i | vainly endeavored to keep her mid s j night vigil by the side of hot- boy.— 5 Nature was exhausted, aud she fainted Mupon tlie floor an almost inanimate • corpse. In this position she remained ' | until the dawn of day, when she was I I awakened by the curses and reproaches i of her demon of a husband. Keeling i to the couch and bending over the coid l clay of his boy, who lay in the calm 1 repose of death, he calls, “Willie, Wil lie,” but aias, lie calls in vain—his spit -1 1 it, loose from the bonds which hound it ■ to earth, has soared away to regions ot 1 eternal bliss. Theangels and archangels, s iu their robes of pearly whiteness, met -' it mid-way between heaven and earth, ‘ and winging their flight to those holy ' 'regions they had just quit, cried, “ Fly ’ wide, oh gates of Jerusalem, aud let : the spirit of little Willie enter." 1 j “ Xo, brutal, cruel man, thy child is 1 now in heaven, channting anthems ’; around the throne of God in praise of ■ its Redeemer.” Arthur Smith reeled backwards and 1 fell senseless to tiie floor. His wife, in i Hie meantime, had recovered somewhat ! from the stupor or trance she had been thrown, and turning her attention to her husband, soon restored him to con ' sciousness by the proper application of restoratives. On recovering, he raised his languid eves to the couch and shrieked, "My |God, my child.” He could say no more, the truth was plain —bait he re mained at home, aud attended to his 'child, as duty required him to do, in stead of following the advice of his ; wicked friends, he might have been spared the awful scene which was pre sented .to his gaze. He fell upon his knees, and in earnest supplication, im plored ids Maker to have mercy upon him. He once more gaaed upon the cold, damp features of hi., child, and from that hour swore, come weal or: woe, he was changed forever. ! o o o o e o' Arthur Smith kept his promise—the | ;siui scene just related, completely changed him. He spurned the. mad deniug bowl as he would a firebrand from the infernal regions. His old as sociates have long ago passed from j earth, or removed to other parts of tie ’ country. From that awful hour Arthur Smith was a changed man. Fortune now took au opposite course ; confidence was again restored to him as a Physician, i | and it was not ion? before liis fame reached far and wide ; by economy and industry, he soon amassed a iarge for : | tune. Years have passed away since the ' scene in the last chapter. They are now surrounded by two lovely sons and an infant daughter. All that can make life desirable is theirs. Little Willie sleeps in the village church yard with the willow tree gracefully waving o’er his head. A small marble slab, ' with the simple inscription, \Vu lib, is all that marks his last resting place, j The memory of him always brings a 1 J tear to the eye of Arthur and Amanda. ! | In a beautiful mansion, looking down on one of the most magnificent land :! scopes unfolded in the rich valleys of the West, Arthur and Amanda reside. 1 All the happiness, capable of being en ;; joyed around the household shrine, is theirs, and the only shade that dims ; 'j their brows, is caused by the remem i brance of the death of their dear little j Willie.
