“ The poisonous drug hr did not slight,
*Twas proffered by the g:ave and guy ;
Hu drank, and midst such vain delight
His youth and health soon passrd away,”
In tjic spring of 16)24, I become acquaint
ed with a young man whose name was ‘ Now- ’
ton.’ Ho was a gentleman of tine appear
ance, of the mott amia! la disposition, and in ]
tact was the noblest looking fellow I ever
gaw. lie ca.no to our village accompanied by
a young lady, who had been absent several
months at a boarding school, and had now re
turned to her parents, ‘an accomplished
foung lady.’ During her stay at this school,
she became: intimately acquainted with Mr. 1
Newton, whose reputation was unblemished
uni in good improving business. lie profess
ed attachment to Elixa I*., the lady through 1
whose nani’ he was introduced to me, and ’ti.s
tjot strange that he w:s accepted. Eliza D.
was the daughter of reputable parents, not
wealthy, but possessing suffice nt of the;
world’s goods to ensure them comfort and re
tirement in that neat mansion : and no family
in this vicinity were more ‘looken up to’ than
Vie family of Mr. D. Ti sus situated, enjoy
ing tranquillity and happiness this amiable
family lived in the pretty village of W. on
Connecticut River in Vermont. Eliza was a
good giil—indeed her beauty was not striking
but then the disposition of hi r mind were the
oroarneats ef t.er characti r. She was loved
and revered by all who knew her, and was
celebrated in the little v.v.ld around her.
bhe was known by her attention to her parents
and benevolence to tlie pQor. l’lnlip Newton
become intimate with the family of Mr. 1).
end the old gentleman was pleased with his
deportment, and was proud to receive him as
the future husband of their darling child.
Mrs. D. was not so well pleased, and remon
strated a little, but finally yielded to the opin
ion of her beloved husband, and finally Phil
ip Newton was even welcomed with pleasure
bv each individual of that worthy fami
ly.
One year rolled into the hack ground, and
f > hilip Newton led the pretty Eliza to the al
ter of Hymen. They sat out immediately for
C., where Mr. Newton lived, and took pos
session of the neat dwelling he had provided.
About One year after 1 witnessed the onion of
♦lie happy pair, i visited them. How was I
surprised to see such neatnes in the country.
Their situation commanded a beautiful view
©f the rolling Connecticut, and every thing a-,
round them gave testimony of the persever
ance and taste of Newton.—And then within
doors—there was the beauty. A little daugh
ter was iu the arms of Mrs. Newton, and she
field it towards me as I entered the house,
end her countenance told the pleasure she
Celt.—l cannot describe my feelings as 1 be
lie hi the happiness which reigned uncurbed
within this pleasant mansion. If such pleas
ure and enjoyment attend the married life,
then says I, a wife I’ll have as soon as 1 ar
rive home. But l tr. is afraid and so gave up.
the idea of binding myself tor life. Tired of;
Ilia country 1 resolved to try mv fortune in a
distant land and without hesitation 1 set out.
tr. due tiir 1 found myself in New Orleans.
Being sucm ssful in obtaining a lucrative situ
at:on, l devoted my time exclusively to‘mon
ey milking.’ Fortune and 1 were on good
terms, and she denied me not. In three;
years after my arrival in that ‘hot place,’ 1
found invsolf in possession of ‘live thousand
clear.’ I tho’t of it, wanted to see mother
and determined. With a round sum of lucre
tn my wallet, I turned my face and thoughts
towards my home- •
My courso lay through the town of 0., and
when I arrived in the neat village when*three
years before 1 witnessed such felicity, my
heart bonded with delight. The stage
drove up to the village inn, and 1 proceeded
to the house of my oM friend. Without cer
emony 1 blundered i* ;o the sitting loom ; but
strangers were there. I excused myself as far I
cs practicable, and inquired for the residence |
of Newton. A poor old house was pointed!
out to me, and 1 soon stood at the door. 1 ;
knocked and Eliza Newton was before me. j
I entered and seated myself near the fire, I;
looked around —bow gloomy. The pale cheek
©f Eliza was in my sight. Oh how mclnnchol
s ! a little boy was playing upon the floor and
the little Amelia I bad left was gone. Poor
Eliza 1 felt for her, she seemed like another
being. 1 cast iny eyes around the smoky u
partnv'.fit, and on a bed in a dark corner lay
Philip Newton. I approached the sleeping
man and turning him to the light, 1 had a full
%’icvv of his countenance. That ten • changed
00. He was a drunkard, a miserable loath
itorae drunkard.
#**#*•*
It was not needful for me to ask why that
lovely woman was so. Why tho neat man-;
eion had beer, changed I'ot tho mean hut.
No, ‘twas not needful, ‘Twas rum : the dam
nable drug winch is death’s first assistant; the
article which destroys the noblest work of
God. Philip Newton was a confirmed drun
kard —his wife a heart stricken, miserable
woman —his little children almost fatherless
and-—and —’twas enough. My heart never
Ijsat as then. I departed with a promise to call
again—started for my native village and
learnt what my eyes confirmed. Philip New
lon began his destructive career by gambling,
<’ram thence to dissipation ; he began with
perseverance as if to run Ins course rapidly ;
’tis evident what produced the downfall of his
prospects —-his all.
I enquired within myself if Newton could
be reformed. ’'Bis possible, tho’t 1, and /r.y
resolution was formed. Iu two days I was
sittii g by -his scanty fire. He was sober
then —but then that eyo told his late frolic.
After telling him the consequences of his con
duct—of the misery he brought upon his
lovely wife—bis surviving child, he wept.
Oh Albert, says he, now gladly would I re
form—come back again, could !.
AS’hat hinders, I asked, is there any rea
son why you cannot become a steady man.
My reputation is gone, h replied, my con
fidence is lost and what can I do.
* Here the drunkard was choked for utter
ance.
But if yu could obtain respectable cm
vtcytcevil udtlid juU bo industrious and so-
Vc*.
Aii, sir, try me.
Well , says I, vour t.donts are above medio
crity"—your health is very pood, and if 1
could be assured you would fulfil your prom
ise; I would—
Assist me sir, he said.
Yes, Philip, 1 would do all in my power to
bring you back on the ground 1 left you three,
years ago.
File man moved not, his head bent down.
His wife, his injured lovely wife—Oh, 1 shall
never forget the look she fixed on me at that
moment.
###*■**
In four weeks from that time, i was estab
lished in the mercantile !ni-inc.s in the vil
lage of C pvitli Philip I-lew ton for a
partner. He was reformed and continues so
to tins day. Eliza is changed as were the
dwellings where I met them some time before
Newton is changed.
By the uni of a little cash,! have been the
means of restoring an amiable family to socie
ty. An old friend from ruin, and a dear and
much loved sister Jo lualih and happiness.
ALBERT-
Tl HANTS.
When I look upon the political state of the
world, the kings and rulers seem so many
keepers and jailors, who have accidentally
acquired the power of placing millions of th.
! human race under confinement. The slaves
, are not, it is true, all actually enclosed within
I dungeon walls, but they have been kept
down in the lower caverns of society, in the
j dark and unhappy pluses w hore their spirits
are chilled, and their prospects hounded ; for,
although happiness is said to dwell among
the middling classes, it is in countries where
; freedom resides. The history of England
i presents a continual struggle between the
; people and their masters, from whom they
! have, at long and bloody intervals, wrenched
reluctant admissions of rights, as abroad and
palpable as the meridian sun. First, by the
great charter of liberties, which was obtained
sword in hand from John ; next by a multi
tude of subsequent corroborating statutes;
then by the petition of right, which was a
parliamentary declaration of the liberties of
the people, assented to by King Charles the
first, on the commencement of ids reign ; and
the habeas corpus act, passed under Charles
the second. To these succeeded the bill of
rights, delivered to the prince and princess
of Orange by the parliament, February 13th,
I(J6d ; and lastly, by the act of settlement,
passed at the commencement of the 16dh cen
tury. This tide of improvement is still flow
ing on.

| Ac. which the New York market will afford,
composing every style and variety of the newest
patterns. They return their most cordial thanks
to their friends in the Southern States, for their
support in the persecution now carrying on against
them, for their refusal to join a combination in
fixing one tariff of prices for Crockery, through
out the trade. It is mainly attributable to the'in
fluence of our Southern friends that we have been
enabled to survive thus far, in this most trying
situation; exposed to the combined influence, and
capital of the whole trade, endeavoring to effect
our ruin and expulsion front business. We pledge
ourselves to our friends to give them ever - , satis
faction in our power as regards the quality of cur
goods, the excellence of our packers and the low
ness ol our prices tor cash or city acceptances;!
and in return solii it lrom them a continuance ot
their patronage, and particularly request those
who have influence with their friends to exert it
in our behalf, as we trust the cause is one tlry
are all interested in and much benefit will acme
to us from their frjendly acts in this way. It has
1 been said, the Combination was broken up. As
1 it regards prices, this is true, and all, we think,
| friends or foes will allow that we have effected this
[change; hut We do asure our friends, that at no
j period since we commenced our system of un
shackled prices were we in greater want of us
sisiitncc than at the present moment. This com
bination ol men are leaving no means untried for
effecting our ruin, that they nv.ty revive the oid
system ; our credit and diameter are assailed in
every shape, our importations waylaid and stop
ped in every instance where threats are sufficient
to illuminate the manufactures lrom supplying
us:—in fine, no vexation or trouble which the
malice of men could devise has been neglected in
this stiuggiC to siflidtie us. We once more call
upon every Iriend of a free trade to come up to
our support, and pledge ourselves to give them no
cause to repent of their liberality.

AND
f |U IE Morning Courier and N-w York l-.am,.
a ror, is published by JAMES WAT.SON
W EBB (J GO. in the city of New York, daih
and semi-weekfy, on fine pajier of the lar-a-’t
size. In its politics it is purely democratic—ad
hering to the principles and usages of the If.qn .
can Party, and advocating the re-election eftn;..
JAGKSIJN', to the Presidency. Its columnsare
alike devoted to Foreign Intelligcsce, M ;.i!s,
Literature, and the Fine Arts. In Morals how
ever, it does not act upon the creed of Fanatics,
or Bigots, but on’the contrary, inculcates t. <
principles of morality and religion only, uh; .
arc founded upon peace and good will to all nun
kind—the fruit ot which is tolerance nnd brother
ly affection instead of “persecution for opinion*
sake.” All Bigots, Fanatics, Sunday Mail Ad.
Vacates, and Ghurch and arc opposed
on principle, tmd their hypocrisy and machina
tions fearlessly exposed.
Iu consequence of the other Daily Papers ia
New York, determining not to hoard vessels an i
receive their news on Sunday; the Publishers
of the Courier & Enquirer have lately vestel
marly SI,OOO in a stptrute “New Bstabh’-liment,"
the support of which will add abofft Sj.OuO ia
their annual expenses. from Eurojv
will be boarded at sea, long * afore they reach
the harbor, and their news disseminated thr.v gh
tiie country with tnora than ordinary desj.atc.’;.
In incurring this heavy increase of cxpcnJiij r .
the Proprietors look for remnneraticn to all w! >
feel an interest in the affairs nf the Ohl V* ar'd,
and if they have properly estimated the popular
feeling in relation to this matter,they will be etli
cior.tly - sustained in the course they have adopt; 0.
It does not become them to speak of the man
ner in which their Editorial Department is con
ducted—lt may be stated however, that Assis -
ant Editors and Reporters are employed at liber..:
salaries, and tf the Commercial, Political, Litcr.i
ry, Foreign and Domestic News, were noDdleast
‘ eijnnl to any other Journal, it would scarcely
have acquired in the short period of five years, a
greater daily circulation than any o'hcr pupu in
America! Yet such is the fact, and at this nm
merit the Courier & Enquirer circulates daily lit
the city of New York more than one hundred per
cent more papers than any of its eotemppraries.
Daily papers sent out of the city, are not pun
ted until 2 o’clock P. M. when all the News r -
coivcd by the morning Mails, or by Foreign arri
vals, are inserted in a Second Edition —so that
the Daily subscribers in the country, literally re
ceive a Morning anil Evening Pupor combmrJ:
and this beiHg the mil v paper collecting news cn
Sunday, it follows of course that the news by
all foreign arrivals on that day, will be found in
the columns of the Courier &; Enquirer only.
A Price Current and Review of the .Market win
be published weekly, and the Second Edit' I ' ll
will always notice any change which may occiit
in the state of our market. Whatever appear-k|
the Daily Paper, will of course also be published
in the Semiweekly.
TERMS—DaiIy Paper, $lO per annum. Serr.i
weekly Paper tj> t a year— payable in udMnet.
N. !!.—All Postmasters who have n objec
tions to ’act as our agents, are requested to recciv*
suhscrintions nnd remit tho money at the risk A
the publishers, at the time of ordering the pop i ' r -
It is expected that they will retails hi their hand
10 per cent of the amount received, as a remune
ration for their trouble.
