anecdotk. Ruse Drinking.?Every day's reflection upon this subject strengthen our feelings of animosity to the habit of drinking liquors. Hourly new and .starting cases cerne up before us, to warn and admonish those who think they are safe enough until they find themselves in the Maelstroom of Intemperance. We heard a most instructive and impressive account from an eminent physician of this city which relate for the reflection of others. And we most earnestly plead with tlio.?c who feel so sure of their own strengtn to read and pause over it?to reflect deep and well after they have read it* The story runs thus. Some years ago, the physician anil a friend were conversing together in front of the Eagle, when a master mechanic; a man o| t e most amiable and excellent characLer: a #U|>erior workman, fnjl of business, with an interesting family, respected by every body and bidding fair to be an ornament to the city?came up to them, and laughingly commenced the following conver Mtion: *4Well," said he, "I have just done what I never befosedid in mv life." "Why Mr, h s owed me a bill for work for a long time, and I dunned him for the pay until I was tired. Bui n minute ago I caught him out here, and asked him for the money.?Well, said he, I II pay it to van if you'll step in here and get a drink with me N?>, said I?I never drink?never drank in my life.? ! Well, he replied, do as von please; if: you won't drink with me, I won't pay | your hill?that's all.?But I told hirn I i could not do that. However, finding , that he would not pay the hill,rather than I lose my money, I just went in and goi ' the drink." And he laughed, at the strange occurrence, as he concluded. As soon as he had told the storx, the j physician's companion, an old, discreet, j shrewd man turned to him, and in a most ! impressive tone, said? "Sir?that was the dearest drink that i ever crossed your lips, and the worst bill you ever collected." And terribly did time verify th it admonition. In less than a twelve month , he was a confirmed, disgraced sot; a vng- : abond in society, a curse to those who j loved him, a loathing and a shame where- j ever he went. And that man, within the past year, died a horrible death.at tlie ; Infirmary in this city, produced solely by intoxication. j, I i ( TH* PATRIOTISM OK WASHINOTOV. ! i In one of the Lectures recently deliv- \ cred by Mr. Sparks before the New York Historical Society, Mr. Sparks gave it as , his opinion that the punty and patriotism ,, of Washington's character were never ; t fullv appreciated by the Congress of the ;5 Revolution. In illustration, he produced j the following historical a needle, worthy . . . * * of the character of that illustrious man, j i and sufficient, singly, to entitle hts mem- ( <?ry to 'he honor which the Congress of 1 j ?he present day has rendered by the erection of a nohle Statue to it in the very centre of the Capitol: " It was a remarkable proof of WashI 4 L I 4L-4 ? I I * ! II ingion s oiouesiy i.iai inr suojomeo leuer , w?s never published during hi? lifetime, ; lj although copies of it were earnestly soli- j cited. A council was held privately !>y I some men of influence ; every point of!; their deplorable situation was discussed, i ' j 1 and It was proposed to toll their views. , a and hopes, and fears, to Washington.' One man, Colonel Nicola, was chosen to ( write a letter expressive of their views. t w hich letter was to he sent to Washing. ! i ton ; and in this letter it was stated that < nothing short of a monarchical systi m j could save the country froin the anarchy and disasters which threatened it; ami they proposed to Washington that socli a system should he estaMished, and that he ihouid lake the head of it, with the pow. | er and title of 1 Kikg.' In carrying out this plan, thev pfoimsed Washington that j t he should have (he support of the Army j ' aed of many men of influence and pow. | er* r h "Now mark the reply of Washington j ? made to this ! Here it it is : M "Newburg, 22d May, 1782, \ " To Colonel Lewis Nicola : i 'Sir: With a ? ixiure of great sur ' prise and astonishment, ( have read with 1 i i t attention the sentiments vou have sun- , iti it ted to ni) perusal. Re assured sir. no occurrence in the course of the war ha* 1 given me more painful sensations than * your information of there being such ... i ideas existing in the Army, as you have , expressed, and I must view it with abhorrence and reprehend it with severity.? For the present the communication of them will rest in my own bosom, unless some further agitation of the matter shall j make n disclosure necessary. "I am much at a loss toconcciva what part of my conduct could have given encouragement to an address, which to m<. seems big with the greatest mischiefs that can befall my country. If 1 a in not deceived in the knowledge of myself, you could not have found a person to whom your schemes are more disagreeahid. At the same time in justice to mv own feelings. I must add, that no man possesses a more siucere wish to see ample justice done to the Army than I do; ar.d i as far as mv nowers and influence, in * : constitutional way, extend, they shall be employed to the utmost of my abilities to effect it, should there be any ?>c*asion. Let me conjure you. then, if \<vj have any regard for your country, concent for yourself or your posterity, or respect for me. to banish these thoughts irnm your mind; and never communicate, as from yourself or any o te else, a sentiment of tbe like nature. n NOTICE.
