A SOL KM N i' \CT. “ 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.

Editors friendly to education, arerc speett,illy requested to publish this statement. Aug. 25, 1831. i.■ . . morning courier 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.
