TAKE PARTICTLATt NOTICE. A
Dr. J. addresses all those who bare injured
themselves by improper Indulgences and solitary
habits, which ruin both body and mind, unfitting
them for either business, study, society or mar
riage.
These are some of the sad and melancholy
WU,* produced by the early habits of youth, viz:

Palpitation of thekleart. Dyspelnia Nervous Irri

much to be dreaded. Loss of Memory, Omfusion
of ideas, Depression of Spirits. Evil Forebodings,
Aversion to Society, Sell-Distrust Love of Soli

duced.
• Thousands of persons of all aeefi can liowJudge
what Is the cause of their declining health, losing
their vigor, becoming weak, pale, nervous and

immediately.
What pity that a young map, pip hope of his

life, by the eonsequence of deviating from the path
of nature, and indulging in a certain secret habit.
bush persons must, before conteni Plating
MARRIAGE.
reflect that &sound mind and body are the *lost
.necessary requisites to promote connubial happl
ness. Indeed without th es e the Journey through
life becomes a weary pilgrimage, the prospect
hourly ,darkens to the view, the" minil lietomes

choly reflection that the haiipiiirst of another is
blighted with our own.

It is a melancholy fact. that thousands DIE vie

CHEERY FANNING•S LOCKET
Cherry Fanning, or Wild Cherry, as she
was familiarly called by those who knew
her, was truly a child of misfortune. But
if a beggar in rags can be called pretty,
this was the case with herself. She was
abont fifteen years of age when the events
herein described transpired. The poor
girl had a distinct recollection of a better
home than the one she now occupied—if,
indeed, her present place of residence
could be called a home.
For many years she had been living with
an uncle and aunt. The former was an
old man, and a cripple, linvin4 entirely
knit the us" of his lower limbs by that
fearful malady, inflammatory *rheumatism.
He was naturally kindhearted; but bodily
suffering and mental anguish had render
ed him irritiible, and sometimes harsh.—
His wife was a woman of energy and great
patience, and never murmured at the dis
pensations of Providence, and for a lung
time she had toiled incessantly for the
support of the family, assisted by Cherry.
But death came. Mr. Norton, her hus
band, was taken- away, and from that mu.
ment the wife sank rapidly herself, until
she was no longer able to toil. Cherry
could accomplish but little, for she was a
delicate creature, and much of her time
was consumed in attending the wants of
her aunt. Death appeared to be sitting
near the couch of the invalid, and starva
tion was staring the young girl in the face.
Cherry was also a timid creature, and
very easily discouraged. She would give
up in despair anything she might under
take, if the slightest opposition was offer
ed her. She would never listen to the
rude jests of her poverty-stricken neigh
bors; so she found no coruyanionahip with
them. She would fly from their presence
when possible to do so, and su she gained
the title of "Wild Cherry,"
It was a bitter winter afternoon, and
the attic where she dwelt was foodless and
fireless,. The aunt lay shivering in her
bed, beneath her scanty covering, while
the poor girl sat in one corner, watching
her, benumbed with the cold herself.—
Tears had gathered in her eyes. She ap
peared to be thinking deeply; and at
length rising she approached the couch.
She bent over her mutt and whispered,
"I am going out now, and, with heaven's
help, I will have some money when I re
turn."
The lips of the invalid moved, but no
sound escaped them. This did not appear
to strike Cherry as anything remarkable,
and drawing a thin tattered shawl around
her, she left the apartment. The wiad
seemed to out her to the very soul, as the
aped swiftly along the sleety street :
&aching some large square dip paused,
and gazed ttp _and dowa t She appeared to
be examining the faces of the passers by,
as if endeavoring to read there what hearts
were charitable and what were'closed to
the appeali of suffering humanity. lb
Was some time before she could bring her
courage to act upon the resolution the hint
formed; but at length she did so. Timid
ly she extended her laud, ardirpon the
first application she received a threepen
ny piece. An e x pression of delight poised
over her Ace as she glanced at the money.
If people were so generous, it would be
but a short time before she would have
sal:dent for her immediate necessities,
and she could return home.
Alas! poor Cherry lmevr little of tbie

momentarily indulged in oonld not be re-

-Woe remained "'lent and thonghtful for
a long time; and then she drew from her
bosom a locket., which was attached to a
faded blue ribbon. She gazed upon the
jewel for some moments, and then said,
"How can I sell this? It was the last gift
of my father when be went to sea, seven
years ago. He told me it was worn by my
dear mother before she died, and that I
must never part with it. Oh, how I tress-
ured it! But I must part with it now, in
order to save my poor aunt. I an take it
to a pawn-broker, and be able to get it
again, and so not lose it altogether."
She proceeded at once to visit a money
lender, and after a tedious delay she was
addressed by the words, "Well, what do
you want ?"
She extended the locket, which was re
ceived and close4y examined by the pawn
broker. Then he asked, "well, how much
do you want on this?"
"Ten shillings, if it is worth so much,"
she answered timidly.
"Worth so much! We'll see—we'll see.
Wait a few momenta."
The pawnbro'ke.r whispered a few words
to the boy in attends re , and the lad im
mediately left the huildibs. In about five
minutes he returned, and poi n ti ng t o
Cherry, said—" That's the gal."
The poor creature almost sank upon tu e
•floor when she was seized, and recognised
the same officer who had so rudely assault
ed her in the street a few moments before.
"I thought so; come along," he said;
and after a few whispered words between
the pawn-broker and the man of law, she
was dragged she knew not whither. She
offered no resistance; that was utterly use-
Soon she was taken into another build
ing, and some words of explanation passed
between the officer and another in attend
ance. She was briefly questioned' but
she was so bewildered that her replies
were not intelligible. Then she was led
away, and in a moment afterwards she
found herself in a dark department and
an Iron-grated door had elosed upon her.
She sank sobbing, and almost senseless
upon the cold stone floor, forshe knew she
was in a station-house, although why she
had been thrown there she could not
imagine.
Slowly the night passed on, and she
shuddered with horror as she listened to a
thousand strange sounds. There were
rattling of chains, banging of heavy doors,
human shrieks, groans and curses, and her
very blood seemed turned to ice.
At length morning dawned, and still
she waited. After a time her cell door
was opened, and she was led into the po
lice court. She was again questioned with
regard to the jewel. She told her story in
such a simple manner that it could not
well be doubted, and the magistrate said,
"I think she speaks the truth, for her sto
ry agrees with her aunt's. She can go."
The ribbon containing the locket was
again placed around her neck, and she fled
from the spot as she would have done from
a pestilence.
Soon she entered her moll apartment.,
and approached the bed, Her aunt ap
peared to be sleeping, but her face was so
very pale it attracted the attention of
Cherry. She touched the brow—it was
cold and elannErrie tittered a wild cry,
and fell senseless on the floor. The truth
had forced itself home—her only earthly
protector was dead.
It was along time before Cherry return
ed to consciousness; but when she did so,
she slowly arose and took her seat upon
the foot of the couch. Here she watched,
weeping at first, but after a time, she
could weep no more. Her eyes appeared
to be balls of Are, burning into her brain.
Darkness came- on. The wind howled
drelicifully, but still Cherry
.sat by the
cold corpse. Suddenly, however,,ilie start-'
ed up. She 'left the appartment and
reached the hrect. Swiftly she sped
along heeding not the cutting blast or
those she met, until she stood upon a
barge at the river's bank. Here she
stood for a short time, gazing down into
the dark waters; then she uttered a Vid
; - ,hrielc, sprang forward, and in. a modent
was plunged into the dark ocean.
But her movements had been watched.
Two sailors were near her, and a small
boat was olose at hand. Into this they
sprang, and seizing the girl, they drew.her
from the river and placed her once more
upon the wharf. She had not lost her con
scionaness;• and darting away, she ran up
the street with all her speed.
Now her clothing began to freeze upon
her; and soon her limbs were so fettered
with ice that she was unable to move, and
with a groan . she fell in the street.
4n officer was passing at that moment
and seeing her condition, he lifted her in
his arms and bore her to a station house
near at hand. The icy masses were cut
from her body, and she was wrapped in
warm blankets. Still she remained un
conscious. In doing this the officer dis
covered the jewel; and again the impres
sion seemed to prevail that she had stolen
it. Others believed that it was a family
memento, still retained in poverty, and
that the child hadspen batten. dark
The nest morning the papers contained
full account of the affair, so far as was
known. Cherry had become conscious;
but age was very ill, and, as yet, unable
to speak, so that no hafanzudion could be
gained from .her. The locket was fully
described, with the exception of two ird-
tabs marked upon it. These were omitted,
in order that ally pretended .owner calling
for it should famish the description in its
idenliication. The locket was of blue
emuneled gold, and oontained the likeness
of a man. Upon one side of it there was
a single small wreath formed of the same
preeiorui gem& It wee the intrinsic vahm
of the jewel, in the poeseasioniof so poor
girl, which exCiloti the emepielee of theft
and had named her arrest.
Presently a sailor entered the station
house and inquired for Cherry. He ap
pealed to be deeply agitated, and when he
gazed upon the faee of the poor creature,
he exclaimed, "My God, little did I think
rshould return to England junt in time to
save. my child from a low" am."
iffour child ?" echoed those ono heard
his words.
"Yes; I drew her from the water last
night; but little did I think at the time
that it was my Cherry."

A THANKR.IIPISQ STOAT
BY 'S. ARMIN, }VEIT.
"You will dine with me on Thanksgiv
ing Day, will you not? It is but a poor
table I can offer you, nowadays; not what
I once spread."
"I will come."
So they parted at the street corner; an
old gentleman and one who, if not old,
was paid, the peiiod of middle age. Old
cronies they , Attire, who for iwenty-five
years had not seen each other's faces, and
and who, n3eeting by what is called acci
dent, made the engagement just recorded.
Barton Wolverton, nearly eighty years of
age, and Clement Rayberg, some twenty
years younger, had been in the same
house of business for fourteen years, then
•their paths in l'ife diverged, and this was
their first band-grasp for a quarter of a
century.
The Thanksgiving dinner had been
cleared from the table; and the two dretv
their chairs closer to the fire for the confi
dential after-dinner chat, in which so
oftfn heart speaks - to heart, and long
buhed:" secrets_often are brought up for
friendly discustdon.,
Fr " Tell me, now, Barton, how the world
has 'served you," said the young man,
ate' a recital of a life experience that has
no conbsction with my story.
"How the -sorki has servedme? lt is
rather a sad story for a Thanksgiving
Day. These anniversaries press hard up
on sore hearts, old friend, and this one is
painful beyond expressiowto me. Yet,
God be thanked for all His mercies!" he
added, reverent `I have been rich, lam
very poor, lonely, &Mlles', wid o wed,
and fast hurrying to the, grave; but I can
still kneel down on this day, truly thank,.
ful for what is still spared tome."
"Will it pain you to tell me how it is
that you are poor and lonely? When I
kik heard from you, your wealth was
large, and—Emma"—
"When you and I parted, I was, ac you
say, wealthy; a wife I loved sat at my
table, and two M4' . sons shared our love.
They all died, one after another, but there
was still money left me. It was one
Thanksgiving Day, twenty-four years ago,
before Emma, my wife, died, when we
were mourning for our last child, that we
were invited to 'spend the day with a friend
some twenty miles from the city. Among
the guests there was a widow lady, who
had been a schoolmate of Emma's, with
one child, a little girl, about four years
old. Her name was 3lattie Haines; in
deed, mother and child bore the same
name. Before the day was over, Emma
had won from.her old schoolmate a story
of poverty and distress that moved her to
beg me to offer her a home, until such
time as she could find employment. We
were very lonely in our great house, and
were only too glad to hear the voice of a
child ringing again through the rooms.
Some light employment, of sewing satisfied
Mrs. Haines' scruples about dependence,
and she remained with us until she died,
leaving little Mattie, then ten years old,
to our care. Two years later Emma died.

She was the darling of my heart, and re
paid my love by the affection and tender
ness of a daughter. I cannot tell you
whether she was beautiful to other eyes
than mine; but to me her face was lovely
beyond description, and her gentleness
and sweetness such as I can never de

now the most painful of anniversaries to

we spent together; the day we celebrated
as the one upon which we first met, the
day when most sincerely we gave thanks
that we were thus thrown together, each
in the future to save the other from utter
loneliness; It was again to become a day
of association. Mattie was eigkteetl years
old when the day appointed for Thanks

was a double event that called for some
extra rejoicing, so my darling and I had a
dinner party. I have now to tell you of a
