There is more true wisd >m to be learn | ed from the following simple narrative, than from the writings of all the sceptics that have flourished from Cain. dOwh to the days ofoer modern philosopher in pet ticoats Miss Frances Wright. ON Jo, my friend Lang, a good deal has been said about Miss Wright and her Temple at Reason, I think the pNiu, simple,but true history of my self and William affords as good a j comment on the effect of infidel prin ciples as any thing I have met with. If you think it worth publishing it is at your service. In a short time it will be forty winters since 1 first land ed in New York; 1 was then in iny twentieth year, without a face that I knew, or a friend to counsel or direct. On the first sabbath morning after we i iiided, three young men of our pas singers called and inquired where I was going to day. I said, to church; they answered, we have bpen near ten weeks confined to the ship, let us now’ walkout and see the country; our health requires exercise, and we can go to ehur h another day. I said, as l ing as I can remember I had gone t< church with my father every sabbath of my life, aid when we parted his last words were “//e member the Sabbath day They went to the country; I went to church; tey spent a few shillings of their wa ges; I put two one penny corporation hills in the plate. Some of them were good mechanics, and got from eight to ten dollars per week; my branch was poor, and it was only by close application i earned five dollars per week. They continued going in the country, found loose company, spent must of thetr week wages, came home half drunk, sometimes caught by a thunder storm, spoiled their line clothes and hats, rose late on Monday , morning, bones and head aching, and I could work but little, all that day. I went to church, saved my wages, rose early on Monday morning, my bones rested, my head sound, and started on the labors of the week with a lighf heart and quiet conscience At the end of the year they could show fine clothes, and powdered fieads on Sun day; hut I could show one hundred dollars piled in the corner of my chest. They have all been gone long ago; having lived fast, they died early; while I, as one consequence of regular living, not been confined by sickness for one day in that period Now, Mr. Deist and Mrs. De;st, you who purpose to reform the world by destroying the Bible abolishing the Sabbath, 1 would ask you who lived the most comfortable life, they or I? who were the most useful members in s <( iety? They died and left their wives and children beggars. If I die to night my family have the toul9 and hands to make themselves independ ent of the world,* About three months after I landed there catne from England into the shop where I wrought, a man by the name of William; he had a fine little woman for a wife, and one or two young children. He was an excellent mechanic, and the first, 1 believe, who manufactured coach spring* in New York; he wus, by religious profession, a baptist, and went to the church in Gold St. Dr. Foster, I believe, was ♦One of the young men of whom I speak, was a baker; in a fit of intempe* ance, while wot king dough in a trough, alone, he lost his balance, tumbled in with his head buried in dough, and in this sit uation he was found dead. This Get is known to scores of his countrymen now in this city. then the pastor. Ho coiim.iu u n ---sistent professor, attending church regularly with his wife and children. But William was a warm politician; a democrat ai red hot as the ir >t lie hammered. He was soon found out by the radicals of that day. About this time there ca.ne to ttie city a man by the name us Palmer, who was oil ti er born blind nr had lost his sight by j disease,—This blind leader of the blind, used to lecture on deism in what was then called the Assembly Rn. it, in William Street. William was led by some of bis new associates into this dungeon of despair and drunk deep in their dark and cheerless do* trine. In a short time he came out a fl tilling dei ,t, and instead Os going with his wife and children to church, he led them to Lmg Island, or the fi Ids in Jersey, or lie went by hims It, to a low tavern and harangued on r ,m P (ioes Age of Reason, to any set of block heads, who would hear him. II is children as they grew up, being left to wander as they pleased, soon associa ted with bad company, and turned out worse than good for nothing. He had commenced business for himself, and for some time, was in a very thriving way. Bii* now every thing, was for got in his zeal for propagating new principles. Y*n might find him in every street and corner, p airing out his new tight; and so vulgar and brutish was the lan guage iri which he blasphemed every tiling which society io general holds sacred, that, moderate men of any principle got isgusted, shunned his company and shop, and his worldly circumstances began to fall and decay. As old stiopmates, lie ands have ever been, and now are, on the most friend ly terms when we inert; and from the beginning have 1 expostulated and warned him of the ruin he was bring ing on himself nod family in t<is world, laying the next aside.—Tho* he could not deny the truth of what I said, yet he seemed like one who had gone so far that he was ashamed to recede. One morning about 10 o'clock a few weeks ago, he called on me and ‘sked for something to buy his break fast, as be bad not tasted any (lung that day. I looked on him with sir row, almost to crying—Says I, Wil liam, has it really come to this with -on? IT said lie had not a cent—a friend, or child, to help him in the world. I asked fr his sons nod daugh ters, by name—they had all gone to ruin, or were dead. The f>w ld friends of the William street lilnmina fi, now that he was poor, knew bi n not.— I gave him a small sum, and told him to call on me in his extrimi ty. Says I, William, there are my sons and daughters; they are an honor to their parents, being all useful mem bers of society. Your children and mine were brought op neighbors to one another—what should make them to differ? He was silent. Says I, I told you thirty four years ago, your mad p inciples would beggar yourself, aud ruin your family. While you carried your children io the fields, or left them to wander in the road to des truction; I carried mine to the church, where they were not exposed to bad company; and now they walk in the ways of wisdom, which are pleasant ness and peace. I added, you must now be convinced that religion is the best thing for this world; and in the next, they who profess it, will be as well <ff as you. Bui if the Biole is true, you may say with the miser, I was starved 11 this, and damned in that which is to come.—He confessed I had the best of the argument, and \o. 3\.
