Ten yedrs have not dimin ished his anguish at the death of that saintly being, who, crushed by hisdespicable conduct, and bowed down under her suHorings, had at last found repose in death. But to return to' my story.

Do received them with'a faint smile, which soon subsided into tho same cold, grave look. They saw he was distressed, and guessing the reason, they tried to console him. lit fold ed them to his arms, and returned*to the house. On reaching it, he sat down in the piazza, call ed them to him, and warned them of the per nicious effects of intemperance. "It is,” said ho, “the rock upon wh'ch many a gallant ves sel splits, and I warn you to beware of it. It is like a raging lion, going forth to destroy the happiness of all, who unhappily may bo enticed by its powers.” It is now time for mo to draw the curtain, and I earnestly entreat every person not to touch tho accursed drink. If you wish to be a truo Christian, and finally, if you wish to bo happy, “taste not, touch not, handle not." A Ghost Story. One of tho most remarkable cases of sudden euro of disease of long standing was that of a rheumatic individual, with which is connected an amusing ghqat story. There were a couple of men, in some old settled part of tho country, who were in the habit of stealing shocp and robbing chnreh-yards of the burial clothes d»f the dead. There was a public road leading by a meeting-house where there wua a grave-yard, and not far off on the rood was o tavern. Early one moonlight niglrt, while one of the thieves was engaged robbing a grave, the other went off to steal a sheep. The' (irst one, having accomplished his business, wrapped the shroud around him, and took his seat In (he meeting house door, awaiting tho coming of Ids compan ion. A man on foot, passing along tho road, toward the tavern, took him to bo a ghost, and alarmed almost to death, ran as fast as Ida feet could carry him to tho tavern, ho touch ed, out of breath. As soon as ho could speak, he declared that ho had seen a' ghost, robed in white sitting In the church-door. But nobody would.'beliovu. him. flo then declared ,thiit if any of' them would go back, they might be : convinced. But Incredulous ns all were, not one could be found who Imd-oourago to go, At lengfh a man who was so afflicted with rheumatism that he could not walk, declared ho wghTd-go with' lilniff ho could walk Or get therov* ‘TbtfmiVn thou oflhrcd to carry him on bln back, took-bim up aufi'-off. they wont. • ; . v*.

The Great Earthquake at Jcddo< An arrival at San Francisco from Japan re. ports the destruction of the city of Jcudo, by an earthquake, on the Nth of November.— One hundred thousand houses were destroyed; and thirty thousand lives, were lost. Jidda, according to the best authorities, is the second capital of the empire, being tho residence of tho military emperor.' It is located on the north* cast coast of the island of Ninhon, and con' tains a million and a half of souls, it is stated to be enclosed by iv trench, ami intersected by numerous canals amf of p river navi* gable for vessels of a moderate burden. It has a fortified pafaco with very extensive grounds, many noble residences profusely ornamented with sculpture rtnd paintings, several largo re ligious temples, and ether public edifices. It alsocontoins the Imperial library, composed of I5l);000 volumts. Thu houses are mostly ono story In height, but being generally built of wood, aro subject to frequent destruction bv fire; Certain 1c Is, that ol the 100,000 dwell* fngs demolished by the recent convulsion, n largo portion of them fell a prey to the limucs. Earthquakes are not frequent at Japan. We need scarcely refer to the one in tho bay of Si moda about a year ago, during which the Bus* sian frigate Diana was wrecked. In 1500 a number of Japanese Cities were destroyed, and ! many thousand persons perished. Indeed,that quarter 6f (he globe has afforded the most ex traordinary instances of the phenomenon on re cord. ‘ In 1002 an earthquake at Pekin buried 300,000 persons, and at tho sarpo place alrapt 70 years later, 100,000 persons' were swallow ed up. On the 12lh ult., a shock of.au earth-* quake was felt throughontOalifornia. At Son Francisco it is reported some slight damage was experienced from it. A Touch iso Scene. —A correspondent 61 the Elmira Htpubliain, says, .that in a recent trip ovor (ho Now York and Erio Railroad, an in* cidimt occurred that touched uvory boholdor’a heart with pity. A comparatively young lady, dressed lii uoop mourning—her husband having recently died—was travelling southward having id her care and keeping ft young dnvightor of somo 0 years; The,little girl wus mlld-eyed as an autumnal sky, and as dotlcato mt tint hya cinth—-her emaciated lingers as dcllcalo'and trauuifarCnt as tho pearls of Ceylon. Touch-, Ingly bcftulllul was tho affliction of her heart for tho mother, whoso sollcltudo for her daughter's comfort was unceasingly manifested. Looltlng ovor and anon from tho car window, she tarnoa to her mother, saying* "Mother, I uni weary—r when 1 shall wo got-homo?” After a tlmo aho full.lnto a slumber, and awakening suddenly— a radlont audio overspreading horfunturcs —sho exclaimed, pointing upward—“Mother—thoro Is papa!—homo at last!*• and expired., It was yot many weary mllea to the mother's homo, but tho angels pitying tho 111110 sullcroi , gathered her to tho paradise,of Innocence.
