A TRCE INCIDENT IN MIS HISTORY. The distinguished Win. Wirt, within six or seven inounlhs after his first marriage, became addicted to intemperance, the effect of which operated strongly on the mind and health of his wife, and in a few months more she was numbered with the dead. Her death led him to lnuuu I Ito AAiinlan !? -1. 1* ' ? ' ? ' wumij 111 nuicii no r?siueu, mm he moved to Richmond, where he soon rose to distinction.? But his habits hung about him and occasionally he was found with j lly and frolicsome spirits in bacchanalian .revelry. llis true friends expostulated with bim to convince him of the injury he was doing himself. But he still persisted. llis practice began to fall off, and many looked on him as on the sure road to ruin. He was advised to get married with a view of correcting his habits. This be consented to do, if the right person offered. He accordingly paid his addresses to Miss Gamble. After some months attention, he asked her hand iu marrage. She repled: "Mr. Wirt, I have been well awcro of * your attentions some time back, and should haVo given you to understand that your visits and attentions were not acceptable, had I not reciprocated the affection you evinced for tne. But I cannot yield assent until you make me a pledge never to taste, touch, or handle any intoxicating drinks." This reply to Wirt was as unexpected as it was novel. llis reply was, that he regarded the proposition as a bar to all further consideration on the subject, and he left her. Her course toward hiin was the same?his, resentment and neglect. In the course of a few weeks he went ^ again and solicited her hand. But Iter . reply was her mind was made up. He i became indignant, and regarded the terms 1 she proposed as an insult to his honor. J and vowed it should be the last meeting ' they shojld ever have, lie took to drink- ! ing worse and worse, and seemed to run hoadlonglo ruin. I One day, while lying in the outskirts ] of the city, near a little grocery or grog , shop, dead drunk, a young lady whom it t is not necessary to narr.e, was passing that way to her home, not far off, and ? beheM hiiu with his face turned up to the ? rays of the scorching sun. She took her ' handkerchief, wi?h her own name marked , upon it, and placed it over his face. After he"had remained in that way for some f hours he was awakened, and his thirst ? being so great, he went into the little gro I eery or grog-shop to get a drink, when lie s discovered the handkerchief, at which he n looked, and the n#-ne was on it. After pausing a few minutes he exclaitnpd; g "Great God! who left this with inet ' ^ Who placed this on my face?" n No one knew. He dropped the glass i exd^piing? v 'Though ! enough!" ' He retired instantly from the store, for- v getting his thirst, but not his debauch, ^ the handkerchief! or the ladv, vowinor, if i God gave him strength, never to touch, I r last, or handle intoxicating drinks. I T/-v u:-. o ?i i .... I V in ins vjriinime WHS the hardest [ efforts of his life. If he met heJhcanriage or on foot he popped round the nearest cor- " ner. She at last addressed him a note under her own hand, inviting him to her house, which he finally gathered courage to accept. He told her if she still bore ^ affection to hiin he would agree to her own t terms. Her reply was: t "My conditions are now what they ever I have been." I "Then," said Wirt I accept them." They were soon married, and from that day he kept his word and his affairs brightened, while honors and glory gathered thick upon his brow, nis name Iias been enrolled high in the temple of fame; while patriotism and renown live after him with imperishable lustre.

There's where we fastened virtue on us, drove in the nails vnd clenched thcin on the inside, to make i* sure thing of it. This virtue is a great thing, and among other good effects it leads ns to do all tho good we can to assist our fellows to the truit of our experience. The following may Ikj serviceable to our farmer frieiy^s. One day, in our youth, while on the inaguiliceiit farm of Mrs Nancy Smalleye, ! we watched her stuggling with a fractions > lien biddy, which she had seized by the legs and was resolutely bearing from the hen roost. The screams of the fowl were truly awful and she spread her feathers some, and indulged in sundry fierce picks at the under pinningsof Mrs. Smalleye, evidently dissatisfied with the undignified mode of, her conveyance. "What are you going to do with her?*' i asked we,'going to have a stew for dinner?*' : "A stew? No, child," was the answer.? | "Fetch me a tub from the shed, and I'll i show you." The tub was speedily brought. "Turn it upside down," said she. We did as we were bid, wondering what j \v?s to be done with the biddy. Immediately Mrs. Smalleye clapped the ' enraged lien under the tub, and with a triumphant voice exclaimed:? "Therenow. stav there you peskverit tor ! I'll have it out of you to-day, or you j sliant have a mouthful of wittlea. Have what out of her?" inquired we, in n perfect cloud or innocent unsophisticity. "The eggs, of course," said she. 4,44Wny, you can't make alien lay egg, can you?" "Poor child!" said Mrs. Smalloye, with uplifted eye and a compassionate smile upon us "You don't know liow 1 do it. You see, dear Willie, hens will get lazy like other folks, aud shirk their duty and don't lay, as if wo could afford to keep them for nothing. Some folks wi'l put up with it but I won't l>o imposed upon by no her., no indeed. I know their eggs, and 1 can tell as sure as ever was, who does lay and who don't.?Them that lays, 1. let have their liberty and go around and pick and scratch and court the roosters, and tan talize each other and do just about what they please. But them that don't I allers put them under the tub. The handles you see dear, leave just crack enough for them to see the other hens enjoying themselves?and it's aggravating enough I know. Sometimes they're mighty stubborn, and won't give in, but eventually they come to their milk, as the saying is, and lay an egg?and then I lets them out. This hen is the contrariest lien I've seen. I don't much expect to see an egg out of her before four o'clock. But it's got to conic?yea indeed !" Luckily for the hen it did "come out" in the course of an hour, and she was liberated and went off cackling proudly, evidently cheered by the pleasing consciousness o I having done her duty.?Lit.

Her eight years upon the stage furnish a volume of the most entertaining and instructive experience. But this is not all?not the most interesting portion of her remarkable book. She begins with her infancy, and introduces us to the bright little butterfly girl sporting among the tie wars of La Cnstagne, in France, where she happened to be born. She gives us a brief sketch of her family, descendants, on the maternal side,of Francis Lewis, one of the heroic singers of the Declaration of Independence. We the follow her in n stormy voyage across the Atlantic, in which she was ship i,...i ...i i 1 nmKcu, nHen inn iiniu uruuHTS wore washed overboard ; one was rescued ; but "the other was lost."
