JESSE MITCHELL, c. c. o. may 1{ 228 Cm THE DESERTBD-a -Alf.. It was a fine afternoon in June; the son was fast sinking h< hind-the clouds lfi»t skirted the horizon, gorgeously piled on the fantastic tops of a ridge of hills to the West of one of our noblest rivers, which in silent majesty was slow* ly gliding along its delightful vale. All nature seemed still, except the light breeze which now and then gently rutiled the waters of the river, and to the eye of a poet appeared to stoop and kiss the dark wave, and then re bound to the willows that overhung the wind ing banks. Attracted by the beauty of the scene, a youth and a maiden walked forth, and now stood looking at a half-finished house in a ro mantic situation near the river. Reader, were you ever in love? if so, you can imagine to yourself the pretty nothings that passed be tween them—the blushes, smiles, and glances. I will frankly own to thee, that I have never been in love: but if thou wilt pardon my omis sions but this time, I will become enamoured of some fair maiden, that I may suitably describe to thee the workings of the tender passion; but pardon my digression, and 1 will proceed to ac quaint thee with the persons introduced to thy notice. Charles Owen was the only child of an in telligent and respectable farmer, who had been able to give him many advantages of educa tion, but by a too common mistake, he injur ed his temper by excessive indulgence. Gra tified in his every wish, he became fickle and volatile, and though the impulse which prompt ed any action or affection was violent, it soon passed away and was succeeded by a new ob . iject. Thus flattered and indulged, he had grown up: the wayward caprice of the hoy had become the controlling trait in the character of the man, and by his bearing one would have thought that the universe was made for his sole accommodation. Having been however mostly secluded from the world, he had es caped the contagion of fashionable vice, and was correct in Ins habits, more from imitation of others than from fixed moral principles.— He hud suddenly conceived a violent passion for Alice Bop.ton, the daughter of a neigh boring farmer, and as no objections could be made on either hand, he had pursued his ad dresses After six months’ suspense, he had been made happy by a sweet aflirmative blush from Alice, and a plain matter of fact “yes from her father; and his nuptials were only deferred till he could eiect a house on his fa ther’s estate, which was, when our tale com mences, in a rapid course of completion. Days and weeks passed; Charles spent his days in urging the work on his future dwel ling, and his evenings in the company of hi: charming Alice. But these seasons of happi ness were doomed to be of short duration; the demeauuor of Charles became gradually chang ed—be no longer met her w ith his former look of affection: something seemed to perplex him aud his visits were short, cold, and formal. A long month passed, and Charles did not ap pear; and it was whispered that he was paying bis addresses to Eliza Biaufort, the daugh ter of a gentleman who hid recently purchas ed an estate in the vicinity. Rumour for once told true: Charles, attrae'ed by this new beau ty, had forfeited his plighted faith, and desert ed his confiding Alice! These tidings were daggers to her heart She had in the open confidence of love given her whole soul to one, and his unfaithfulness had blasted all her budding hopes; yet her maiden pride forced her to assume a calm, and at times a cheerful countenance—and a stranger would not have detected that hidden grief that w as silently wearing away her heart-strings. This forced calmness could not long be supported, and she contrived mostly to be alone. It. was now fall, and the decay of nature’s loveliest works ac corded well with the crushed state of her mind, to which every falling leaf, every withering flower seemed an emblem of blasted and dis appointed hope. She would often walk forth to the solitary woods, and there give free vent to her feelings. In one of these rambles she unconsciously entered the lands of her faithless lover. Charles chanced to be hunting, and they ap proached quite near without perceiving each other. Charles first saw her, and with a for mal how passed on, when she called to him to stop. He obeyed in some confusion; and after a short pause to collect herself she addressed him in a solemn tone. ‘Charles, (said she,) I once thought you loved me; 1 was deceived— but I forgive you: may you in your marriage enjoy that happiness that is denied me. But I would fain know the cause of your cruel de sertion. “Alice,” said he, (a dark frown passing over his brow,) “ask me not that qu stion. I can not, will not answer it.” So saying, he was turning away, but she re called him. “Charles, do not fly me; I crave it as the on ly boon you can ever grant ine, answer me; why did you forsake thu fond Alice, whose on ly fault was loo much love tor you?” “Alice,” exclaimed he, “urge me no farther; I will net tell you.” “Nay, but 1 beg by your love to your Eliza answer me!” “Alice," said he, every feature convulsed with passion, “cease this persecution, or by * * "Trust not to that. Though man should never know of tbv crime, there is One who will know it,, ar.d His punishment thou canst not escape. He can, if he choose, reveal thy guilt in a thousand ways, and by means the most insignificant to man. Seest thou these falling leaves? The least of his works, even one of these may disclose thy crime. Think not that I fear thee: take this wo’rthless life if thou wilt; but answer my question.” “Then by Heaven! take thv answer!” A week had passed; Alice had in vain been sought for by her disconsolate parents, and it was generally believed that she had put a pe riod to her own existence. Time passed on A large company were collected in an elegant ly furnished room; there were youth and beau ty, and laughing eyes and blushing cheeks, while age looked on in smiting approbation; it was a wedding party. The bridegroom ap peared in extravagant spirits; his laugh was the loudest and the longest, but his mirth had an air of wildness that alarmed his friends, and at times a shade crossed his brow, and he seemed struggling to banish some horrid re collection. Day after day passed,.arid she sighed in si* Jence. At length she extarted from him the cause of his dejection, and learned that his bu siness had declined, and that he had sustained multiplied loosscs which had deprived him nearly of all his earnings. There are women, and those whom the world call women of sense too, who could have contented them* Selves with sympathising with their husband, and supposing by affectionately shrinking his regrets they had discharged their duty. Not such a woman was Mrs. Morton. She felt deep for her husband’s misfortune, ami that feeling prompted her to do what was in hef power to assist him. She immediately com* menced a rigid system of reform, retained only one servant, her table was not, as before, load ed with luxuries, and the wine was banished from her sideboard. Her two children were neatly but simply dressed, and she gazt d upon them with more heartfelt delight, than when covered with ribbons and useless finery Shu applied herself to domestic avocations with unabated diligence; and carried economy into every department of her household. All this was oot done however without the 'Near a year had passed, and the verdure of Hie opposition, and in some instances tte summer was again yielding to the approach ol j sneers, of her acquaintances: but happily the winter. Fortune had smiled upon Charles, and his amiable wife had done her utmost to please him; he had joined the festive circle, he had even sought tlie consolations of reli gion; but for him there was no peace no re lieffrom remorse and wretchedness. His wife, without knowing its cause, shared his unhap piness; her countenance spoke not of happy and requited love; though delighted at times by his warm professions, the apparent con straint ol his mind, his abstraction, and unde- finable dread she felt for him, had embittered her every pleasure. Though to others they seemed happy, yet the fireside, that paradise on earth when hallowed by affection, had for them no attractions; and Charles, to indulge his musings, had chosen to be alone. He sat before an open window and unconsciously gave utterance to the thoughts that burthened his mind. “A year, a long year is passed, and yet eve ry thing reminds me of my guilt; conscience utters it in a voice of thunder. In the night I hear it muttered over my pillow; grim visages mock me, and say, behold the ‘murderer]’— The wind murmurs her came; these rustling leaves—ha! did she not say that even these would inform against me? But they shall not. Ha! a lucky thought—I can escape ye yet.— Conscience, goad on! Howl away he fiends— I defy ye! Alice, thy death shall be reveng ed!” Then starting in a sort of phrenzy, he seized a pistol and pointing it to his breast, “Alice,” cried he, “thus dies thy murderer!” On hearing the report, his wife rushed info the room with a scream of agony. “Oh God! Charles, why this rash act? :f Charles groan ed deeply, and ultered the name of A!ice.— “Alice!” said his wife, “speak, w hat of her?”— “Enough,” he feebly answered, “but I must not tell you; and yet I will. 1 loved her once: I saw thee, and could I love aught else? I met her in the silent wood, she asked why I had forsaken her, and I refused to answer.— She entreated, she repeated tier question, and in a moment of passion these hands were rais ed against her in deadly violence! Her grave is under the shade of an elm: oft have 1 been there—I have wept over the sod, I have called on her to pardon me—the last time I was there 1 heard a hollow voice, ‘Murderer, thy-titne will come’—and it has come!” Then with a shudder, his spirit sought eternity! The place where Alice had been buried rtras easily found, and her remains decently re-inter red. Eiiz.i returned to her father’s, and in time found a solace for hejKgriefin the care and education ^f her son, wlrdie dawning mind suggestions of pride and indolence fell harm less on the ears of Mrs. Morton, for she weigh ed them against the duty to her husband, and her affection to her children, and the scales mounted in the air. Her husband, in the meantime, though he would have perished rather than have prescribed such conduct, saw her thus employd with new delight springing in his heart, and in his .approbation she found at once a reward for past exerti< n 4 and an additional incitement to new. From the much decreased expenses of his family he was encouraged to struggle against misfor tune, and business soon began slowly to revive; ami though he cannot, as before, anticipate speedy wealth, yet from the prudent care of his wife, and his own industry and application, brighter prospects are daily opening to h ; s view. To his partner he is now attached by a new, tender tie of aff cl ion; for he has seen that she Can sh?.rc and alleviate (he distre«s of adversity, as well as adorn and dignify the prosperous station. Happy Morton, who has such a wife: and thrice happy atid lovely the woman who can thus act! From her example may every American fair learn in what course of conduct lies the true dignity of female char acter. May they Idarn that thev were intend ed by providence not mereIy,to float on tiie sur face of pleasure, as fluttering butterflies in the sun, but to be sweet soothers and consolers of man, When misfortune clouds his prospects, and presses heavily upon his spirits.—Poalsan's Daily Advertiser. “Nay, swear not; but answ’er my question. Caliest thou this persecution? I will follotv thee till thou dost answer me; l will ask thee in thy marriage chamber, in the presence of thy Eliza.” “But there is one way to silence your en treaties,” said be, ferociously; “the dead do not entreat.” “Foolish man! dost thou thiuk such a crime will go unpunished?” “These woods, said he, bitterly, "can tell no talcs.” seemed fully to compensate her sorrows The father of Charles, broken-hearted and discon solate, soon followed his son—a Victim to grief, brought on by his own excessive indulgence. INTERESTING PICTURE. A young merchant, Morton, w r as united, a few years since to a most amiable girl, whom he sincerely loved, and who returned his affec tions with all the warmth and ardour his many virtues deserved. Aj the time of their, uup tials, Mr. Morton’s, business was lucrative, and apparently increasing,. s6,tjiat he could in dulge in reasonable anticipation, not only of eventual independence, but of obtaining that desirable end, without denying* himself «nd family the fashionable gratifications of the day Accordingly, he furnished his house in a styie of considerable elegance, kept several ser vants, and in other respects conducted his fa mily arrangements on a liberal ‘ scale, ~ and which his forefathers would! ’perhaps have deemed idly extravagant. His wife,, too, thinking to do credit to her husband, paid lit tie atiention to economy, and raihcr made it her study to gratify his taste, than to regard the expense it might occasion. There was a time ivhen such a general pros perify pervaded this country that prudence herself seemed to justify extravagance. But those times had gone by, and on those coun tenances where once sat hope and confidence, now sat disappointment and despair No longercould the merchant engage in schemes of enterprise: for he saw the more extensively he was in business, the wore extensive were his losses.. No longer could he place "reliance on the stability of his neighbor; for experience was daily teaching, in painful lessons, that the foundations of credit were loosened, and those who bad withstood many a storm now bent and yielded to the times. But still the storm howled only without the dwelling ot domestic peace—it had not yet wounded the merchant in his tenderest con cerns. Soon, however, Mrs. M. saw the gloom that misfortune was gathering on her husband’s brow, and which neither her own affectionate solicitude, nor his children’s sport ive playfulness, could chase away. :i Fhe Farce of Love—A. cow keeper, nimed Cawston. residing in Newington, applied on Friday for advice under the following riremn- stances: He stated that he was very much an noyed by a female, who haunted him day and night. He could go no where that she was not after him. Mr Davis (the magistrate)—f suppose, then, the poor girl is in love with you; is that the case? / > * Applicant—That is the fact, your worship; when 1 goes out of a morning with my-pails, she is sure to be arter my heels; and when I come? home, there she sticks herself afore n*y door, and looks for all the world like a statue. She was a servant,, he said, in a gentleman’s family that he Used to serve with milk. She often deplored that she was not a woman of fortune for his sake, declaring that had she thousands th» v should be at the command of so nice a young man. lie never gave her any liberties he said, but her father dying {eft her some property; and the poor m m was no soon er in ihe prave. s * np Came f 0 hj m fapnjj* cant,) exhibited to him 1300 am! asked him to marry her; saying.that Ire should have the mo. ney to increase bis$lock of cows On that oc casion, added the cow keeper, I told her point blank that i would not have her at any price; howsomever. she would not take this denial, and she comes after me wherever I go, and says that wherever I am there she will be also. The magistrate said he did not see how the poor girl could be hindered from following and admiring the man she loved. Doc?s she threa ten to assault you, or do you apprehend any personal danger from her? Cow keeper—I can’t say that I do; but then, your worship,'suppose as how yourself was in my sityvatiou; you wouldn’t like to be follo\Y< di about to Lim houses of your customers by a woman. ' I’m Sure I have done every thing a9 laid in my poorer to get rid of the nuisance. I have sloshed milk over her more than once, twice, or thrice, but that won’t do. Mr. Davis—One would be inclined to think that would cool her ardor for a lover who dash ed his milk at her head. Cow-keeper—No Sir, not a bit of it; she’s as bad as ever now, and.follows roe about, de claring that she will have me at last—for if she don’t, nobody else will. It was only the night afore last I shoved her down into lb‘o mud; she got up again, went home, changed her dress; and there she was at my tail before I served half my customers with the afternoon milk. \ </ i. The magistrate said, that however enraptur ed the poor girl might be with the complain ant, that was no justification for his dashing milk at her bead, or sousing her in the mu i — He could not see that any assistance could be rendered from the office. Cow-keeper—-Then I’m afraid I shall lose all my customers, for seeing the girl coming af ter me continually, they will suppose that there is an improper connexion between us, which, I declare most solemnly, is not the case. Mr. Davis remarked, that it was a pity a girl possessed of property should give w*y to a pas sion for a man who was utterly unworthy of her thoughts. The magistrate then directed Craig, the officer, to proceed to her residence, and
