and whikoiengaged in conversation
with him, I came near being pros-,

comfiture by. intimating in reply ! that
there were many other rotten insti
tutions on his side the water, which,
like the chair, must soon come to an
end—in which idea he , seemed fully
to concur.—l have never been 'able

In 1851 there Eyed in a smalitown
in the State of 'New York the deacon
of a certain Christian church, who
was noted for his liberal qualities,
who Was in the habit' of giving large
wino suppers among his brotherhood
of the church, and as a general thing.
the guests would return home rather
more than slightly inebriated ;
rather more intoxicated than they
would have been if they had staid at
home and enjoyed the pleasure of
their own families, and saved them
seh es the trouble of carrying the big
head upon thi3ir own shoulders on
the following day, as was the ...case.
Theme - one which I wish to represent
was on& of a similar kind. • •
'Upon `a Christmas day of '51.- . -Hit
was the marriage of the only dangh
ter of the deacon.-it was a night of
joy and glee. After the marriage
ceremony had been performed, the
bottles of wine were :brought forth;
all present.filled their goblets full of
the poisonous nectar, except one, who
Stood like a marble statue. It was
the bride; while.tha words were spo
ken from one of the crowd, "Pledge
With -wipe." "Pledge with wine,"
cried the yelling and thoughtless Har
vey Wood; "Pledge with wine," ran
through the crowd. -
The.beautifnl bride grew pale; the
decisive hour had come. She pressed
her hinds together,.nnd the leaves of
her bridal wreath treMbled on her
pure brow; her. breath came quicker,
and her heart beat wilder..
" Yes, Marion, lay aside your scru
ples for this once," said the deacon
in a low tone, going toward his daugh
ter; "the 'company expect it; dci\not
.i . nfr , inge upon the rules of eti
queU,e; in your own home 4t,as you
please, but in mine for thisonceplease
me." •
Every eye was turned towards the
bride, for Marion's principles were
well, known. Henry had been a con
vivialist, but of 1316 his friends had
'noticed-411e change iu his manners—
the diffcrence of his habits - -and to
night they watched to see, as they
sneeringly said, 4 ho was tied down
ta'a.woman's opinion so soon..
,Pouring a brimming, goblet, they
held it with teilpting smiles toward
Marion. She was very pale, though
more composed and her hand shook
not, as, smiling back, she ' gracefully
accepted the crystal tempter and rais
ed it to her lips. But scarcely had
she done ....13 when every one was at=
tracted by her piercing exclamation
of "Oh, how terrible!"
" What is it ?"• cried one • and All,
thronging together, for she had car
ries the glass to her arm's. length,
and was fixedlyregarding it as though
it was some hideous object.
"-What-?" slid` answered, while an
inspiredlight shone from her eyes;
"wait and I will tell iou. I sea,"
she added; slowly raising ono of her
fingers at the sparkling , liquid, ".it

'warm mist, that the 'sun seeks vainly
to pierce. Trees, lofty and beautiful,
crave to the notion - of, the breozo.
Hilt there a grOup of Indians gather,
and flit to and fro with something
like sorrow upon their dark brows,
and in their midst lies a manly form
—but his dark cheek,-how deathly - -
his eyes wild With the fitful fire of fe

I should say k eels; for see, he is pil

genius in ruins on the - high, holy
looking brow—why should death
:mark it, and he so young! Look
how he throws back the damp curls!
See him claeip his • hands; hear his
shrieks for life; how he clutches at
the form of his companion, imploring
to be saved! , Oh, bear him call pite
'ously his father's name ; see him
twine his fingers together, as he
t ;
shrieks forhi sister—his only sister;
the twin of hi 'soul—weeping for him

she exclaim while the bridal. party
,shrank back, 'ho untasted wine trem
bling in their' grasp, and the deacon
fell overpowered into his scat—" see,
his arms are lifted to heaien; he
prays, how wildly, for mercy. But
fever rushes through his veins. The
friend beside 'him is weeping. Awe-,
stricken,. the dark men move silently
away mid:leave the living and the dy
ing together.l'
There was "a hush in that princely 1
parlor, broken only by-what seemed
a smothered I sob from some manly
bosom. The bride stood yet upright,
with - quivering lip, an'd tears_ stream
ing into the outward edge of her lash
es. Her beaptiful arm had lost its
extension, and the glass, with its lit
tle troubled waves, came slowly to
ward the range of her vision. She
spoke again;' every lip vas mute; her
voice was low, faint, yet awfully dis
tinct. She iitill fixed her sorrowful
glan'eeppon 'the-wine-cup. •
"It is evening now; the great white
moon is coming up, and her beams
fall gently on his forehead. He moves
not; his eyes are out of their. sockets;
°
dim are the Piercino. glances. - In vain
his friend •whispersthe name qf fath
er and sister; no soft hand and no
gentle voice! soothes and blesses him.
His head sinks back; one convulsive
shudder—he is dead!"
A groan ,an through the assembly. I
So vivid was her description, so WI
--earthly-her look, so inspired her man-'
ner, that what she described seemed
actually to have taken place then and
there. They noticed, also, that the
bridegroom' had hidden his` face and
was weeping.
"Dead!' 1 she repeated again, her
lips quivering faster and her voice
more broken—" and there they scoop
him 'a grave; and there, without a
shroud, the lay him down in the
Alamp, reeking earth—the only son of
a proud father, the idoliied - brother
I of a foud,si?iter; and he sleeps to-day

her beautiful cheeks—" father, shall

The fo of the old deacon was

instantaneously every glass was trans ,

—will sustain me in this resolve.

His glittering
.eyes, his sad, sweet
smile, was her answer. - The deacon
had left the room, but when he re
turned, and ' with a mora subdued
manner took part in the entertain
ment of the bridal guests, no one
could - fairto . see that he, too, had de
terthined to banish the enemy at once
and forever from. that princely home.
deader, this is .no. fiction. I was
*ere and heard the words, which I
are penned as neat as can recol
lect them. This bride, her husband,
and her brother who died in the gold
regions of California, were school
mates of mine. Those Who, wereipies
nut at that wedding, of nay associates
never forgot the impression so sol
emnly made, and all from that hour
forswore the social glass. -
THE MARRIAGE OUTFIT.
Old Deacon . - Drown started in
life very . poor. married his
wife, Su@n,before . the days of hoops,
etc. Thby had been happy in their
married 1-life, and unto them 'was
borii.. a ;beautiful girl, whom they
named Nate, who, Of course,- when
she greis up, fell in love. Her choice
was a poor but noble young man.
The deacon \ and his wife had taught
their child to choose for herself, but
to do it wisely, and they were glad
'to see :that she made choice of an es
timablO young man; their ',neighbor's
son. -
Now Kate took up, a notion .that
she ruditlfate a great..many articles
for her marriage, and - make a fash
ionaPter • show of dress ''during the
koneynioun; and as. .they lived •in
only a town, she wrote "her fathei
note,4questing hipt io furnish hex'
a conWerable. =Omit, to buy her
outfit, and stated in - it that she 'ex
pescf.cd she would hf'oe to send to the
city-to get All - she needed, whereupon
the old man made the -following re
ply
" DEAREST DA:TIGHTER : As -you are
my only daughter, I. may call you
dearest, truly, for I love you -very
much. I have conSidered,your note,'
and this is my reply :I am' very sor
ry to find yin' possessing a weakness
of most's:if your sex, viz : that, you
think you most have a. large outfit
for your wedding and honeymoon.,
When I married your dear mother
she:had-but two calico- dresses and
other- things to fit, and .:I really
thonght.her, as I took her in her
dress, the prettiest, sweetest girl
in the land, and have never thought
otherwise. She has made me a dear,
precious wife, and been to me klielp
meet indeed. Now, my dear child, I
will not iefrise yon„what you ask,
but myiobservatiotfin life his con
vinced ime that tiftimsre girls •who
spend a - heapi of mommy to Provide
their outfit for marriage, are general
ly sure to spend htaps of it after
ward, and that often they keep their
poor husbands' noses to the. grind
stone of misfortune and_toil all their
lives. .
'' A great many fine things for your
wedding and its after incidents, will
make you no sweeter or prettier to
your husband, and-may .make you a
good deal dearer as to his pocket. If
the man of your choice really loves
yon, no ...doubt he does; it is not
for what you have on, but. for the
qualities of your person,
,head and
heart ; and, , as he, is a mau of sense,
I have: nodoubt he will think more
of you when he finds that you have
not made any great preparations' for
your marriage.* There_ are many
gentlemen in this country, now worth
their millions, whose wives, ...when
they married,.had no more than your
mother. , By this I do not mean, that
yon should -have no more ; `but your
mother tells me that you now have
five' neat every day dresses and four
Sunday ones \ and really they are
larger, fiper and better than many
millions of your sex are able to "ob
tain..
"I make these suggestions for your
consideration, but'leave you to follow
- hem or not,; 110, your judgment may
dictate; and to, show yon that this is
the fact, r enclose you a draft . of a
thousand dollars on my, cashier,
which you they use.at your, pleasure.
" Affectionately yours,
"Joas Bao
ws."
Kate did not long 'hesitate as to
her, course of action. Her mother
gave her, a few dollars of her pocket
money, and she bought only a sim
ple, plain white dress, and appeared
.in it at the altar, with natural flow
ers and her ciwn lovelinesS for adorn
ment. _ - ,
She drew•the amount of the. draft
in gold; and one' month to ' a day
after her 'marriage handed the
amount to her husband, and accom,
panied the gift with these Words
" Dearest, I applied to my" father
for 'money to . purchase what I sup
posed I needed for my marriage, and
he wrote me this letter (handing it
to her husband), and enclosed in. it
the draft upon which I drew this
thousand gol. ollats,.which I now
present to you : e money saved by
a victory over a f.. *: fashicm, Have
I done wisely?"
" You have, my 'blessed wife, and
are a , 'thousand times dearer to me
by yotir better judgment."
It is 'needless to add that the hus
band: of Kate is now worth many
thousands of dollars- 7 -and in a de
lightful old age they often tell their
friends and children of the thousand
dollars at the foundation of it all.

The operation of simple interest is

.
" Compound intereit is. the recom

therefrom, whicluis added to the or

T.—Mr.
Hue ; the Catholic missionary, in
spealdng'of his journey throUgh Tkib
et, says:
" There exists ih Shassa a touching
custom, — Which we were in some - sort
jealous of finding among infidels. In
the evening, as soon as-the light de
clines, the Thibet men; women and
children Cease from all business, and
'assemble in the principal parts of the
city and in the public squares. As
soon as the groups are formed, every
one sits down onthe groundand be
gins slowl,y to chant, is prayers in an
undertone, and the'religious' concert
produces .an immense " and sOleinn
harmony throughout the city, power
fully affecting to the soul." '
It is not strange that M. Hue, when
he first heard this solemn `sunset
chant, could not help making a sor
rowful cotnparison between:this pa
.gt:sn town where all prayer is com
mon, and . the iitiesf Europe, where
the peoPle would blush,to be:detect
ed in offering the slightest token of
their lxomage to the Most high. And
if the Thibetans were permitted' to
pass through, our streets, which re-
Soun dwith blasphemy, and visit the
homes whore no prayer is. offered,
would they not feel that the heathen
were more religious than those .who
claim the name of servants- of the
Lord?.
Wherever the' patriarchs pitclhed
their tents they huilded their altars
unto the Lord.. Happy would It be
if every tent was reared an altar, and
.
in every heme a place for daily and
united-prayer.
Pourtsys to-Womr.N.—To a lady,
