Sad History of a Young Lady
=I
We have some painful facts to narrate a
bout a woman who was recently , found in
this city in a most degraded and wretohed
cnriaitiob. A simple sketch of IWe 'Mese

idownward after the first step is taken, and
how mercilessly retribution follows after
wrong-doing and crime.

which his heart was set. Nor was the sub

ment was used to bring his mind into the 1
light of its obligations - to God, and of its im
mortal interests. lie was iLltillettl to attend
divine worship stead4y, and to discard a II
profane company and irregular prise:ices.
The missionary visited his wife, and In
formed her of her husband's hopeful refor- I
motion. Her mother vehemently resisted
ony attempt to bring about a renewed inter
est in him, or pave the way for his restora
tion. The daughter was perbips less impla•
eably disposed, yet.was unprepared to en
10laln any hope of his safe recovery from
vice, or of safely committing herself and her
children again to his charge. Had the inter
view been fully reported to hint. M
thinks he would have made away with him
self in his desperation, either by direct sui
cide, or by a final plunge into vice. On the
contrary, Is. said nothing of the mother's
implacable resolve, but presented to him
-the most hopeful aspect of his wife's feel
ings, and encouraged him to persevere, and
raise himself to • position which would com
mand her respect and confidence—urging
that whatever the reatilt, thisorould be but
his duty, and that far more important inter
ests than his happiness here, hung upon his
persistence in the path's of airing.
The desire to win back_ hi ti Lwife and his
children wrought upon him with growing
energy, /10 was not only teinperate, but
keenly attentive to tinniness, frugal and
steady. His business increased in his
hands, and in a short time doubled, then
