To you the sight of that drunken beast,
possessing the form of a man, but none of
the noble attributes that comprise true man
hood, is suggestive of nothing but the fear
ful curse of 'drink,' bat to me the sight of
that degradation briers to life old memories
of a pale, spirituelle face—long since laid be
neath the sod—of a patient, broken heart;
that hopefully waited to lie pulseless beneath
the ever green live-oaks of Louisiana,
Think not that those bleared, leaden eyes
always had that dazed, blank expression;
that those matted locks and that unkemp,
beard were always thus. I remember when
that man was a well to-do architect and build
er, dressed -neatly, and was a highly respect
ed, promising young man, whose only fault
was the love of 'drink,' That one fault was
his own damnation, and wrecked as pure and
true a woman's heart as it was ever the good
fortune of a man to win, or his curae to
crush.
C. N. BEAVER'S
As if she stood before me now, do I see
her as she appeared when I saw her—a small,
delicately formed creature, with deep, earn
est, blue eyes, and goldec hair, upon whose
pale features ever rested a shadow that was
apparent to the most careless observer. At
a casual glance it seemed an ever present
dread of death from consumption, upon the
first stages of which she seemed entering;
but it was not that dread consumption of the
lungs that left its impress, it was the decay
of the fondest dreams and hope of a trusting
womun's heart, that had so grown and en
twined themselves there, that they bad be
come a part of herself, and in fading their
dust had buried forever the 'germ of hope
within. The shadow seemed to say that the
light of her life had gone forth never to re
turn this side of the tomb. This expression
was So marked to me that I sought an op
portunity to learn her history and know the
secret that was sapping her life at its fonn
tale.
She had met and loved that brute you see
lying there in the torper of beastly intoxica
tion, when be was respected as a gentleman,
and seemed on the high road to wealth and
honor among his fellow men. Then she
heard of his fault, learned of his love for
drink, bat with a woman's strong, confiding
love ; she hoped to win him from his curse,
to lead him from its debasing paths into a
higher and better life.
But beneath . all this was a Christian heart,
in which the love of God was first in that
heart, an altar upon which was offered up to
Heaven the first incense of a loving soul;
and when be would have married her, she
replied To.'
love you better than I love the world—
better than I love myself—'better than I love
my life and its hopes—better than every:
thing beneath the stars; but Dove my Heav
enly Father, too, and ho Cannot smile on my
marriage to a man of your habits of life, and
I cannot neaept you. Oh, Henty, be a man!

But the physical system could not always
stand this fretting and chafing of the•soul,
and gradually her health and strength failed.
Despite the kind attention of sympathising
friends and the surrouniings of we•llth . and

to release her soul from out its prison cell of
clay. Then Et be sent for that man, to whom
she had not spoken for years. Every ves

he invested his last dollar in suitable apparel,

full well that ho was to meet the sundering,
of the hat tie that bound him to a single hu
man being.
Though perfectly sober, he had nerved
himself for the interview by potions of bran
dy, the odor of which he smothered with
perfumery, and entered the room as though
it were himself who were there to feel the
icy Angers of the fell destroyer abnut his
heart. With a glance and a faint wave of
the hand she beckoned him to the waiting
chair by her side.

lesson that was recently given to one of their
number in Davenport, lowa. A story had
been for some time circulated respecting the

promptly sued him. She Wag cleared of

because ititts thought that the mayor had
•no thought of vile intent in what he said,
the verdict was in his favor. Since the
trial the lady published a card in a local
paper, in which she says: 'First of all, the

THE Sourt LAKE IN TEXAS.—One of the
most singular plienomna of the South' is
known as the Sour Lake, and is situated a=
bout 60 wiles from Houston, Texas, in a low,'
wet prairie country, bat itself on quite high
ground, and surrounded by a floe little for
est. The lake is but a few rods in diameter,
and its waters are so sour that it is almost
impossible to drink them. A number of wells
have been dug in the immediate vicinity and
the waters of these contain iron, aluunt, mag
nesia, and sulphuric acid. 'Large numbers
of people go there from the South to bathe
in the lake, and drink the waters of the wells.
The effects of the baths are'sedative; and
persons who have not slept comfortably for
weeks, after taking a bath in the lake in the
evening, enjoy a refreshing night's rest.—
The water after a le* glasses becomes pleas
ant to the taste, and may be bottled and put
in wooden casks,, without losing its strength.,
The soil is so strongly impregnated with the
same qualities as the water, that it' the mud
is dissolved in pure water, and a little soda,
or saleratus put in it, it will foam and effer
vesce, and wilt be as sour is,letuopade.

IMPRESSION AT FIRST Sretrr.—Thissub
jeet, at the supper table, was getting 'talked
ever,' when the lady who presided over the

flattery of a second, the civilities of a third,
the friendship of a fourth—they all deceive
and bring the mind bac& to retirement, re
flection and books.
