A TRUE STORY. In the evening of the day Alice arrived at S , a great experience meeting was to bo held in one of the churches. JJer friend who had become enthusiastic in ihc cruise, urged her to go lo this meeting, which Alice did, al though with a feeling of reluctance.* The house was crowded above and below. The prelimi naries usually appertaining to such meetings having been arranged, a brief opening' address was made by one of the ministers. A reform', ed man then tela ted his experience w.th’great effect. After he had finished there was a pause of nearly a minute. At length a man, who had been seated far beck, with his face partiv torn, eu nun j me audience, arose sjowly, and moved to the front of the stage. A half suppressed exclamation escaped Alice, as her eyes caught the well known features of him who had been her htisband', while a quick thrill ran through her. Then her frame trem bled in acco d with her fluttering heart. The face of Mr- Delaney had greatly changed since she had last looked upon iti Its'calm dignified elevation had bt-en restored, but with what dif ference? What befitre was cheerful, was sad, very sad. “ Mr. President,” he began in a broken voice, “although I bad consented at your urgent solicitation, lo address this large assembly to nigh', vet I have felt so strong a reluctance to doing so, that it has been with the utmost difficulty 1 could drag myself forward. But I had passed my word, I could not violate ii. As to relating my experience, that I do not think I can venture upon. The past I dare not recall. Would to heaven thut.jusl ten years of my life wero blotted out-” The speaker paused a moment, already much affected. Theft resuming in a firmer vbice he said: “But something must be said of my case or I shall fail to make that impression on your minds that I wish to produce. Pictures of real life touch the heart with pow er, while abstract presentations of truth gli'ter coldly in the intellectual regions of the mind and then fade from the perception like figures in a diorama. Your speaker once siood among the jirst mdmbcrs-of the bar in a neiglilioring state.— Nay, more than that—he represented his coun ty for ihree years in the Assembly of the Com monwealth. And more than that still—occj- pied a seat in Congress for two Congressional periods. At this announcement the stillncsss of death pervaded the crowded assembly. •And'yet more than all that,” he continued, his voice sinking into u low thrilling tone— *• he once had a tenderly loved wife and two sweet children. But all these honors—all these blessings have departed from him,” he continued, his voice growing louder and deep, er in his efforts to control himself. “ He was unworthy to retain them! His constituents threw him off because he had debased himself and disgraced them. And worse than all—she who had loved him devotedly—she who had borne him two dear babes was forced to aban don him and seek an asylum iii her father's house. And why? Could I become so chan ged in a few short years.? What power was there so to abuse me that my fellow beings impassable interdiction.- I have no longer a wife, no longer children, though my heart goes out towards these dearly beloved ones with the tenderest yearnings, pictures of our early days of wedded love are ever lingering in my imagination. I dream of the sweet fireside cir cle; I see ever before me the or.ce placid face of my Alice, us her eyes looked’ into my own with intelligent confidence. I feel her arms' ewine about my neck; the mosic of her voice is ever sounding in my ear.” Here the speaker’s emotions overcame him. Mis utterance became choked, and he stood si lent, with bowed head and trembling limbs.— The dense mass of people were hushed into an oppressive stillness, that* was broken here and there by half stifled sobs.’ At this moment there was a movement in the crowd. A single female figure, before whom every one appear ed instinctively to give way, was seer, passing up the aisle. This was not observed by Delan ey, until she had come nearly in front of the platform on which lie stood. Then the move-' ment caught his ear, and lifting his eyes they iuslantly fell on Alice—for it was she that waff pressing onward—he bent forward towurds her with sudden uplifted hands and eager eyes, and stood like a statue until she had gained the stand and advanced quietly to his side. Fof a moment the two stood thus, tho whole audi- e:ice, thrilled with the scene, were upon their feet and bending forward. Then Delaney opened his arms, and Alice threw herself upon his bosom with a quick, wild gesture. * * ' Thus for the space of a minute they stood— every one fully, by a singular intuition, under standing the scene. One of the ministers then came forward, and gently separated them. “ No, no,” said Delaney, “you must not, you cannot take her away from me.” “Heaven forbid that 1 should do that I” re plied the minister, “ By your own confessibb, she is not your wife.” 'No, she is not,” returned Dolancy, mourn fully.’ “ But she is ready to renew her vows again,” rained over her face. Before that large assembly, ail standing, nnd with* few dry eyes, was said in a broken voice, the marriage ceremony that gave Delaney and Alice to each other. As the minister, ah aged man, with thin white locks, finished the rile, he laid his hands upon the .heads of tho two he had joined in holy bonds, and lifting up bis aged eyes, that streamed with drops of gladness, her said, in a solemn voice, “ What God hath joined together, let not ROM put asunder.” ‘‘Amen !” was cried by the whole assembly, as with a single voice. 1 v '*’ ** *’■ spurned, and even the wife of ray bosom turn ed away heart-slricken from me ? Alas ! my friends, it was a mad indulgence in mockery! A very demon—a Circe, changing the human into the bestial. But fur this, 1 were now an honorable and usfefuT representative in Con gress, pursuing after my country’s good, and blest’ in the borne circle with wife and children. But I have not told you all. After my wife separated from me, l sank rapidly. A slate of perfect sobriety b ought too many terrible thoughts; I iherefere drank more free ly, nnd was-rarely, if ever, from under the be wildering effects of partial intoxication. I re mained in the same village for some years, but never once saw her during that time—nor a glimpse of my children. At last I became so abandoned in my life, that my wife, urged on bv her friends, no doubt, filed an application /6r a divorce, and as cause could easily be shown whv it should be granted, a separation was le gally declated. To complete my disgrace,’ at. REAL GREATNESS. He who no sesses the divine powers of the soul, is a great being, be bis place where if may. You may clothe him with rags, chain him to slavish lasks—but he is siill great. You may shut him out of your house, but God opens lo him heavenly m .nsions. He makes no show indeed in the streets of a splendid city, but a clear thought—a pure affection, if resolute art of a virtuous life, will have a dignity of quite another kind and far higher than accumulations of brick and granite, of plas’er and stucco, however cunningly put to gether, or though stretching far beyond our sight. Nor is this all. Beal greatness has nothing to do with a man’s sphere. It does not lie in the mtigtiitude of his own outward agency in the^extent of the effect which it produces. Perhaps tho greatest men iu out- city, at tbis moment, are buried in obscurity. Grandeur of character is wholly in the force of -thought, moral principle and love, nnd this may be found in the humblest condition of life. A man brought up to an obscure trade, and hem med in by the wants of a growing family, may in this narrow sphere perceive more clearly, discriminate more keenly, weigh evidence mote wisely, seize on the right means more deci sively, hove more presence of mind in difficulty than another who has accumulated vast stores of knowledge by laliut-imic daily, nnd Iro bn« more of intellectual greatness. Many a man who lias gone but a few miles from home; understands human nature better, detects mo tives and weighs character more sagaciously, than another who has travelled over the known world, and makes a name by hts reports of different countries. It is the force of thought which measures intellectual, and*so it is the force of principle that measures moral greatness, that highest of human endowments, that bright est manifesto" of tjie divinity. The greatest man is he who chooses the right with invincible " resolution, who resists the sore temptations from within, and without, who bears the most heavy burdens cheerfully, who is calmest in storms and most fearless under menace and frowns, whose reliance on truth, on viitue, on God, is most unfaltering—and is this a great ness which is apt to make a show, or which is most likely to abound in conspicuous stations.
