an in%ention arimitted by all men who understand the

tive against those dreadful disasters. You have cer
tainly, in the hmulreds of explosions that have already
taken place, their almost daily occurrence, and the
thousands of lives that have already been hi-t, a MA
rient warning, and inducement to make inquiry for a
SAfety guard 11%rat, and in every case to give it the
preference. They have went to an additional expense
than your lives may be secure. Ought you tun therefore
to meet them with n corresponding decree
andity your preference show that von appreciate their
laudable endeavors to stop thin awfulsixtrifice of hu

The term of 31'Cartan's earthly prosperity wits both
nearly arrived. The warnings of his friends were all

min his cottage and garden, together with a small Sell
at some distance,—part of a different farm, the same of
which the field of the fairy-well had constituted a port'

wrought no beneficial change in his habits; and While hit
daughter's frame was wasting away with Oar(' end ES? ,
tigue, he endeavored, by continued intoxicatidti, to-fora
get the consequences of his own guilt and folly. The
cottage now no longer presented the appearance et
comfort and wealth, which had in other days distiw

even the garden, compared with what It had been, inie
little hotter than an unsightly wilderness. All thiswas
regarded as a melancholy illustration of the tradizinee
truth; and in deed the curse seemed not far froth its
consummation, for Sally's health was evidently genet
and her father, w hose constitution had been fat some
time rapidly breaking down, was at last seized with a
disorder, which was at once pronounced fatal. Ever
since the commencement of their misfortunes; Manley
had participated, with the most soothing affection. in
all the troubles of her friend. She would now sit, the

This change became gradually more and more remark=
