As t gazed on the picture so fair, A change was brought over the scene, There was anguish, and wo, and despair, 'Where gladness and beauty had been. Methnught that their bnndmen awoke, As the tempest awakes in its *nth. Their fetters, as burning flaxibroke, And terror and blood marked their path.

Pour young men were there seated around a table, above which was suspended a lamp, whose sickly light bound them as with a spell—their eyes, weary with continual watching, were fasten ed upon each other with jealous and suspecting looks; for ohl they aro engaged playing, and 'that, too, with gaining cards! No:conversation. passes between them, and nut a sound was heard save, now and anon, a half uttered oath of the loser, falloweikby the ill suppressed esultationd of his more fortunate companion. As each gams was finished, another forthwith commenced with a full determination that it should be the last r ciatil at length, one of them stopped and leaning his head forward rested it upon his bands. Without, the-night -storm staged with increased violetce ; but within wai a more dreadful tempest,: rolling its blackened wave'o'er the.sickened soul— the cards were held but lightly within his hands, and with a kind of indifference, he seemed to hesi tate: Come," said one of them, A deal oat, why do you keep us waiting." _ As this question was asked him, be pressed his hand for a moment upon his - feverish brow, where might be traced indications of qualities, capacitating him for a more noble sphere than that of a gamester ; end then throwing the cards upon the table, he arose and addressed his cOmpanions. Calm, solemnly and stately he stood before them, with the sinceri ty and t resolution of his soul pictured upon his features—his.voice, which was at first tremulous, became strengthened, as the consciousness of the propriety of his course became impressed upon his mind. No," said to, "too long already have we thus played, and for one, I inn now determined to sever the fascinating chain that has bound me. Night after night has passed like this, and now let us pause and reflect. Does a thought of the time thus squandered, afford us pleasure or saris. faction Have we been benefited either in body or mind 'I Let our sunken eyes and throbbing temples answer for the former, and our vacant and wandering thoughts for the latter!

When he had done speaking, two of the young man arose, expressed their appiobationPf his lan guage and avowed their willingness to adopt his resolution, The fourth kept back—though he saw truth in what his companion bad said, yet he wished not to deny himself the privilege of some times engaging in this amusement, as be was pleased to call it; and again, there was something of too solemn a inature in the vow, which his companions had hi in presence of the All seeing Eye, for taint to join them with impunity. Years have pasied-since that night in which those three youn men girded on an armor to protect them from . the many temptations and al !elements ever off r ed at a gaming table.

The reduction of duties, which took placO on the first of January, in compliance with the provisions of that act, has entirely prostrated ono branch of business—that of Calico Printing.—.': We understand that notice has been giien to alt the agents, operatives, and others, connected with that branch of manufacturing, in the employ of the Cotheco Company in this town, that thh works will be entirely suspended in a few weelor. In Taunton and Lowell similar notice, it is said, has been given. This step which has been ford ed upon the Company by the ruinous sacrifices which they have been compelled to make, to meet competition from abroad, will press with the great.. est severity upon the large class of operatives who will be thrown out of employ. In this town etch. number, we should think; is not far from twit' hundred, most of whom are foreigners with larie families dependent on them, and few of whoth . have laid up means for future support, and can turn their hands to any other branch of business. —Dover, N.
