October 10, 1S57 glance into his palo features to tell that he was an invalid, IIo sat with his head resting upon his hands, and his whole frame would over and andu tremble as though with some powerful emotion. As tho youth sat thus, his door was oponed,,afl,d an elderly gentleman entered. "Ah, doctor, you are moving early this morning," said Ballcrton, as ho leisurely roso from his scat and extended his hand. "Ohl not early for mo, George," re turned Allyne, with a bright smile. " 1 am an early bird," "Well, you've caught a worm this time," " I hopo 'twill provo a valuable one." "1 don't know," sighed tho youth. " I fear a thousand worms will inherit this poor Uc-dy ere Jong." "Nonsonso! Ycu nro worth half a rfseotury yet," cried tho doctor, giving him a gentle slap .on the shoulder. " But just tell mo, George, how it is with Jlowland I" " Just as I told you. All is gone." " I don't understand it, George." " Neither Ao I," said ,tbo young man, sorrowfully "That Charles Jlowland could have dono that thing, I would not, could not havo believed. Why, had an angel appeared to mo two weeks t0, and told me that Rowland was shaky, I would not have paid a .moment's attention to it. Hut only think : when my father died he selected tor my guardian Ui.s .best friend, and such I even now believe Charles How land was, and in his hands he placed all his wealth, for him to keep until I should become of ago. And when I did arrive at that period of life, 1 left my money where it was. I had no use for it. Several limes within three or four years has llow land asked me to take my money and in ve.'t it, but 1 would uot. I bade him keep it, and use it if he wished. I only asked him that, when I wanted money, ho would honor my .demand. I felt more safe, in faot,-tbjiu I should have felt had my money been in a bank on deposit." How much hid ho when hojlcftl" " How niuch.qf .mine 1" " Yes." "Iojhpuld havc.had a hundrod thou sand dollars." "What do you mean t.t do?" "Ah ! you have mo on tho,hip .there." "Aud yet you must do something, George. Heaven knows I would kcop you'if 1 could. I shall claim the privilego of paying your debts, howovcr." " No, no, doctor nono of that." " But I tell you I ehall. I shall pay your debts; but beyond that I can only assist you to (help yqrself. What do you say to going to sea." A faint smilo swept over tho youth's palo, features at this remark. " I should make a smart hand at fioa doctor I I can hardly keep my logs on shore. .No, no I must "Must what!" "Alas I I know not. I shall dio that'i all I" "Ntjpsonsc, George. I.say, go to sea, You couldn't go into a shop, and you wouldn't if you aould. You do not wish to .remain here amid the scenes of your happier days. Think pf it. At sea you would bo free from all sneers nf the heart less, and free from all contact with things you loatho. Think of it." George Ballcrton started to his feet and paced tho floor for somo minutes. Wbon he stopped, a new lifo seemed already at (Work withinjiim. " If I went to soa, what. should I do 1" "You understand all tho laws of foreign trado i" " Yes, You know I -hafl a thorough schooling at that in my fathor'a counting house." " Then you oanjiavo tho birth of super cargo." "Aro you suro I can got ono I" Xes." "And tho salary 1" " Two thousand dollars." "Doctor John Claudius Allyno, I will did 1 know you less than I do or, knowing you well, did I know you as Ido many I should givo you back your vows, and freo you from all bondage, liut I believe I should, tramplo upon your heart did I do that tliia now I know your lovo is too avoirdupois. IIo n.ow brought up tho boam fairly at ono hundred and pevonty-six. Purely ho was a now man in every respect. On tho afternoon of tho third day, as ho entered his hotel, ono of tho waiters handed him a letter. He opened it and found it puro and deep to bo torn from your bosom from Mr. Wi"00- It.was a request ttiajt at will. So I say wait wait 1" " But why wait! Have I not enough!" " sh 1 You know not what you say. Thcro .nro other feelings in tho human heart besides Joyo. That love is a poor, profitless passion which puts asido ell other considerations. Wo must love for eternity", and so our lovo must bo free. Wait. I am going to work. Ay, upon ,th.e soa to workP " But why upon tho sea ? Why away whero my poor heart must ever beat in anxious hopo and doubt as it foflmva tbco I" " Jiceauso I cannot remain hero. Hun dreds of poor fools havo jmagiuod that I shunned them becauso I was proud, Thoy knew not that it was tho tainted atmos phere ill their moral life that I shunned. Thoy gloat over my misfortune. lon may call mo foolish j but it would Jrill mo to stay hero." "Alasl must it bo !"' "It must. You will wait!" " I will wait even tho gates of the tomb 1" ho would bo at tho morohant's house, nt 0 o'clock that evening. 4 ''CKeorgo,!' said tho doctor, after tho Voung man had given a full account of his dventurcs, !!I should think you would almost forgive poor Kowland for having made off with your fortune !" " Jjorgtvc him! ' returned George; "oh, did that iu tho first placo I" " Well, George," resumed tho doctor, Mr. Rowland is here. Will you see him !" "Sooliiiaf Soo Oliorlco unlawl t OC courso I will." Tho door was opened, and Mr. Rowland entered, fo was an elderly man, but halo and hearty. The old man and young shook hands, and then inquired after each other's health.

Gcorgo ,Ballcrton walked ono evening to tho houso of tho wealthy merchant, An drew Wilton. It was a palatial dwelling, and many a hopeful, happy hour had ho spent beneath his roof, uo rang tho bell The ruined youth was upon tho ocean his voyage commenced his duties at laborer for his own daily bread was fairly assumed. Ah! it was a strange lifo for him to cuter, upon. from tho ownership .oimmenso wealth to tho trado books of a merchant ship, was a transition indeed ! Rut cro ho went on deck again ho had fairly resolved ho would do his duty, come what would short of death. l,e woul forget that ho ever did clso but work for his livelihood, With these resolves clearly defined in his mind, ho already felt better. At first our supercargo was too weak to do much. He was very soa sick, .and it lasted nearly two weeks ; but when that passed off, and he could pace tho vibrating deck with a stout stomach, his appetite grow sharp, aud his muscles began to grow strong. At first his appetite craved some of tho many delicacies he had been to long u3cd to; but.thoy were not to bo had, nnd he soon learned to do without them. Tho .result was, his appctito becaruo natural in its wants; and his systom "began to find itself nourished by siiuplo food, nnd in proper quantities. For years ho had looked upon breakfast as a mettl whioh must be set out and bo partaken of from mere fashion. A cup ol coffco, and perhaps a pieco of dry toast, or some seasoned and highly-spiccd tit-bit. had constituted tho mornins meal. Rut now, when the broakfast hour came, ho approached ,it wjth a keen appetite, qnd felt as strong and as 'hearty as at any timo of tho day.

A con? sumption was upon you not a regular pulmonary affection, but a wasting away of the system for tho want of vitality. Tho mind was wearing out the. body, Tho soul was slowly, but surely, eating its way from tho cords that bound it to .earth, I know that you cquld bo cured.; and I knew too that tho only Vrlipg that would euro you was to throw you upon your own phytioal resources for a .livelihood, Thcro was a morbid willingness of tho spirit to pass away. You would have died ere jyou made an exertion, rom tho very fact that you looked upon exertion as worse than death. It was a strango stato of both body and mind. Your largo fortuno rendered work unnecessary, so there was no hopo wliilo that fortuno.remained. Had it been wholly a bodily malady, I could havo argued you into tho necessary work for a cure. And, on tho other hand, had it been wholly a mental disease, I might havo driven your body to hqlp your mind. Rut both wcro weak, and I knew that ycu ,mut cipher work or dio. "And now, my boy, I'll tell you wcro my hope "lay. I jknow that you possessed such a true prido of independence that you would not depend upon others. knew that if you were forced tp do it you and exoited the attention and wonder of s socking happdos"! whero it is not to bo warriors of other nations, In battio ttioy . found, nnd thit ho would bo misoraqlo un 1. . t!- ,--.-.l -1.1 L' . , uavo stoou as cnoi anu cunocicu, aituougu tho first time in action, as tho oldest veter ans in Europe ; pouring in thefr dcadjy fire with unerring aim, "Ishot that officer," exclaimed a rifleman, as ho saw an officer fall at New Orleans. "I shot him in tho right eye," replied tho other rifleman. "And I shot him in tho loft eye,'" was tho rcsponso. Aftor. tho battio, it was "found that an officer had been shot in both eyes. This unerring precision can only bo obtained by long praetico and thorough drilling. At the first settlement of tho State, they wcro compelled t' bo constantly under arms, as it were, to guard against tho wild Indian and niuurdervus tomahawk. As tho father, so tho child grew up, taught in earliest infaucy possKblo, to poiso (tho riflo and. direct its aim. As ammunition was not always convenient to bo had, tho father would dole out to his sen n. nnrtain ntim""- of cartridges for his rifle, for each of which ho must bring home somo sort of game, Or get a taste of hickory for vcry missing shot. Many years ago I was conversing with my father on tho wondorful skill ,9 the Kcntuckians, when he related tho following anecdote : "J was out in tho wild of Kentucky, 6omo years before tho war, on a surveying expedition and had an opportunity of stu dying the character of thq early settlers for a considerable longth of timo. It beoamo necessary for me to stop a few days at a log tavern, and to whila away tho, time 1 trjirk my rifle and explored tho woods for game, of which thcro was an abundance. Tho landlord had a .little son, about ten years of oge, who accompanied mo with his rifle, and always had extremely good luck. j9n ono occasion tho fates seemed averso to him, fur perceiving a squirrel on a very high branch of a treo, ho up with his rifle .and blazed away, and down came tho squirrel. Tho lpok of dismay with which ho viewed tho gamo, I shall never forget. Dropping the butt of his riflo on the ground, ho burst into tears. In the utmost surprise, I inquired what tho matter was. He answered "Daddy'll liek mo." "Lick you 1 what for I" "Because I didn't hit him in tho head." I soothed him all I could, but tho day's pleasure" was ovor. On returning to tho tavern I interceded for him all in my power to savo him from the hickory, but it was of no use; tho application must bo made, If only for example "No, no, stranger ; if I let him off I break a standing rule of our State. I was never lot off, and what is good for mo is good for him. lln must shoot right or put up with what ho gets." Tho hickory was applied, but no bones were broken. Such training as that, which was universal in thoso parts, tells the secret of Kentucky rifle shooting dor any circumstances. Ladies, do not marry a miser ; (18 will deny you not only tho comforts, but tho necessaries of lifo, and mako you poor in the midst of plenty. IIo will not only destroy your peace of mind by eternally talking of anticipated evils, but ho will stint and starvo you until your body shall b.ecQmo as lean as your soul. When I sco a man a lover of idleness moro than of industry, sacrificing even his interests to indolence, I guess tbaf man will soon learn want. Ladies, do not marry a lazy man ; for ho who i3 devoid of energy must bo devoid of proper feelings, and will not bo stimulated by affection to discharge his duty to his family. Holy Writ informs us that he who will not pro vido for his own household is worso than an infidel, and hath denied the faith. WhepI sco a man a lover of whiskey more than of water, wasting his health in w-uwii ticjo, oaUUHUIIJir Ills nn.ait.II, ll'Ino tation, and peaco of mind to a beastly appetite, I guess tint man will soon drai n tho cup of his misery to tho very dregs, and that he is not long for this world. Ladles, do not marry a drunkard; of all. characters ho is tho most to bo dreaded and avoided, for drunkenness is tho sch'ool of every other vide, nnd tho high road to ruin. When I1 sco a man a lovcr of self moro than of society, engrossing, whilo in com pany, the wholo conversation to himself sacrificing every principlo of politeness to a dictatorial dispositionr-l guess that that man, few as ho admiro will find still few,er to admire him, and none to placo as high an estimation upon him a3 ho puts upon himself. Ladies, do not marry a "proud, conceited, taltting spark," ho Js too much in lovo with his noble self to leave any room in his heart for any' ono clso ; and rest' assured, whero affection 3 not mutual, lifo cannot bo prosperous or happy. "Secst thou a man wiso in his own conceit, there is moro hope of a fool than of him." When I see a man a lover of pleasure more than of property, sacrificing principlo to passion, and propo to prostrate his pros pects befoto his propensities, I guess that that man will reap pain instead of pleasure, and tha,t pleasuro itself will pall on his palato. Ladies, do not marry a lover of plcasu.ro; ho cannot perpetually plcaso you, nor can you pJcao him long. Whon J sco a man prodigal with his property, pouring it out profusely, without regard to the precepts of prudence, I gucs3 that that man js precipitately pacing tho path to poverty, and tua tlicrcroro ho will not long own property. Ladies, do not marry a prodigal, unless jnu chooso pov erty. When 'I sco a man of vittjwus life, with1 a clear head and 'a warm heart, and indus trious habits, laboring with zeal and energy fur his own and general good, I guess that man would make a fiuo citizen, a happy husband, an affectionate father, an&' 'a prosperous man. .Ladies, keep, a good looK out and when you find such a character, and can get an offer from him, do not hesitate or pause to inquire whether ho' fs rioh, or descended from a great family, but jump at tho ohanccf and your days shall pass sweetly and smoothly away.
