c==g=ggggg " a mother's grave. I A llowed into a burying ground, in the subuibs of the city, a small train of persons, not more than a dozen, who had come to ' bury one of their acquaint rve. Tne clergyman In at q a c3 was di a 'ittie b y 1 by tho hand, wno seemeu 10 be tne only 1 ^relative of the deceased in the slender group. I I gathered ??uh them around the grave, an J when the plain coffin was lowered down the child burst forth iu unconiroluble grief. The little fellow hud no one left to whom he I could look for affection, or who could address him in tones of parental kindness ? J The last of his kinsfolk was in tho grave? and be was alone. When the clamorous grief of ihe child ' had a little subsided, the clergyman adJres*. 1 sed us with the customary exhortation, to 1 accept the admonition, and be prepared ; ' and, turning to the child, he added, " She | is not to remain in this grave Icr ever ; as j! i ? !.:!!?.} ?.:,u ; | true as the grass which is how cuitcu ?.i.. the frost of the season shall soring to green- J 1 D w | ness aud lift) in a fe-w months, so 'rue shall your mother come up from that grave to ! another life-?to a life of happiness! 1 hope." The attendaats shovelled in the earth unon ' the coffin, and some one took little William, ' the child, by the hand, and led him forth 1 from the lowly tenement of his mother. : Late in the ensuing spring I was in the neighborhood of the same burying ground, ! and, seeing the gate open, 1 walked among ! the graves for some time, reading the names of the dead, and wonde.ing what ^ etrangu disease coulJ snatch ofT so ninny ; younger than myself?when recollecting ! that I was near the grave of the poor wid. !1 o\r hurled the previous autumn, I term d to j see what had been done to preserve the J memory of one so utterly destitute ( f earth ly c friends.

William started at my approach, and would have left the place. It was long be. a fore I could induce him to tarry : and in- ^ deed I did not win his confidence until i told r inm that I was present when they buried I tiis mother, and had maiked Ins tears at the !" time. 1 ^Thon you heard the minister say that ? my mother would come up out of the grave." J' aid little Wdiiam. r' "I did." "It is true, is it not V* asked he, in a tone of confidence. "I most firmly believe it," said I. fi "Believe it," said the child?"believe e it?I thought you knew it?I know it." p "How do you know it, my dear?" u "The minister said that, as true as the grass would grow up, and the flowers bloom t in spring, so true would my mother rise. I I came a few days afterward and planted i b flower seeds on the grave. The grass came j tl preen in this burying ground long ago ; and J 0 i watched every day for the flowers, and to-day they have come op too?see them e breaking through the ground?by and by u mamma will come again." tl A smile of exulting hope played On the g features of the boy; and 1 felt pained at it disturbing the faith and confidence with S which be was animated. ti "But, my little child," said f, "it is not " here that your mother will rise." c "Yes, here," said he, with emphasis; c 'here they placed her, and here 1 ha. c come 1 over since the first blade of grass was green ? thisyear." s 1 looked around, and saw that the tiny v feet of the child had trod out the herbage at 1 tho grave side, so constant bad been bis at- tl tendance.

' Iu company with a minister of the gospel ' now preaching in South Africa, I one day attended a court of justice to witness the trial ofsomo criminals at Inverness. Such 1 scenes are frequently instructive and affect- ' ing in a high degre; it proved to be so on ; the present occasion. After an aged wo ' man had been tried, and sentenced to ban. ishment from her native country, a fino, toIV handsome young man was placed in the dock* A charge of wilful murder, accompanied with circumstances of extreme atrocity, was brought against him. It anpected thnt h** had Srr: e d e <! and th*n destroyed the unsuspecting victim of his villany. This happened on a Sabbath morning. Having, as he thought, concealed the corpse of the deceased, ho went to the kirk, and remained in the m dst of the cong"gation during the concluding part of divine service. There was something so indecorous in his habiliments?so excite 1 in his countenance?so confused in his behaviour?and a! o^e her so strange and wild in his look, that the eyes of a great I ortion of the congregation were fixed pan him; and although he attempted to join in the singing, he could not divert tromhis person the curiosity of die people After service tire well-known female fri? n 1 of this identical young man was found shockingly mangled, weltering in her blood and hid under a hedge. Suspicion immc. Jiatoly fell upon him as the murderer.? ! He was tak-n into custody, tred, and ! sentenced to execution. Daring his im. I prisumnenr, i obtained permission to visit him. 1 found him in his cell loaded with rons, chained to the floor, and sitting on straw. A chair was beside him, on which nl icetl a cold uotato, a iug of w ater, ind a B.ble. From the moment 1 entered :he room lill I left he never looked up. Not ? question that 1 put to him would lie answer. At length I said, "Shall I pray with you Fie muttered, "Yes." Anxious to know something of his previous history, I made nquiry, and ascertained that only a few lours before I visited his cell his mother lad been admitted to take leave of him. To ler he said, "Mother, if it had not been for ,'ou I should not have been here !" She eplied, "I'm sure I never told you to do tny harm." \V ith awful emphasis, he r ' oii.ed, "7 am sure you never told mz to do my good.^ From that hour his lips were sealed. In a few days after, the awful entence of the law was carried into effect, cou'd find no ground to hope that his nind had been propc rly ; fleeted, or irought into a penitent state. VVh.t must lave been the emotions and reflections of hat parent against whom it was possible or a son, in such circumstances, to utter ucii a reproach, I will not attempt to deicribe. Let parents learn from this affecting narrative, what blessings they may :onfcr upon their children by the t.mely tnforcement of religious instruction, and io w poignant may be their own grief if they hould ever hear, and hear with truth and jstice, the awful reproach, " You never told ic to do any good /" 1 A TALE OF THE BOTTLE. , Wo ronv this vcrv interesting narrative * * - - - r j * w rom the Kentucky Colonizatiomst. Wheiljr it was original there, or had before been uLJ'sheJ in sorneother paper or papei?, we nablu to say.?Journal of Com. Some years since 1 was travelling from lie state of New-York into the province of Jpper Canada, by way of Cape Vincent and [ingston: Between tiie two channels of le river JSt. Lawrence, we passed Wolt's r Grand Island, which is but thinly settled. -It was in the depths of winter, late in the veuing when 1 called at an inn. As is but )) common at public houses, several genemen were seated around the fireside enagtd in conversation. A little interrupted i my coming in,-they made a short pause, oon one of them resumed the converse on and with a spirit of indignation, said, VVtli, that man ought to be hung f r such onduct toward his wife," 10 which the ornpaDy responded in the afHrmative. A-s did not know the particulars of which they ruro conversing, I thought it was the lander and harshness of a bar-room conersation, and I asked for no explanation. 1 .^he company soon dispersed. E> rly in le morning I called on a man in the neighorhood, with whom I had some business J 5 transact. Soon a gentleman rode up to le door, wishing to know if I was a minisix?stating that a woman had died the day ofore, and wishing me to stay and attend J ie funeral; to which I consented, and learnd the following particulars :?J. B., the in uman husband of the deceased, was meson [ a tavern keeper on the island, and was arly addicted to habits of intemperance, lc had been married to Miss B. four or five ears. Nolwitnstaridmg his early habits f dissippation, lie had been sornewha' ;uarded and prudent till ho was married, ie then gave himself up to his cups an 1 :arousals, neglected his business, scattering tnd d,*sTJOyi?g?spending much of his ime i;i tlie town of King.st <n, a place noed for gambling and intemperance. It vas not long befoie the last of his pioperty ' tottered upon a single card." He sold he clothing out of his own house for rum. tnd his wife was left to contend with povirty and despair. He soon became one of he most abandoned drunkards I ever saw. rio had not only seemed to have forgotten 0 provide for his family, but it became his ielight 10 rob his forsaken wife of every iitlo comfort she might earn or receive from 1 benevolent friend. He lived on the wesern side of tho island in a log hut. It itood upon a rise, exposed to the northern j blast that swept along tho entire leng:h of j the Ontario. Almost perpetually the howl- ; ing tempest beat upon the bne'y and shat. ered dwelling. The rolling waves of the Ontario were sepn at a distance dashing their foam against huge banks of ice, and the roar of waters and storm, added to the 1 - ?: ? dismal gloom U)Ui reigucu wiuuu uuiuuu* | urd's home. Here lived he unfortunate female whoso unhappy fate I am about to describe. She had been married and confined to the prison-house of a drunkard for near five years. Ah, hapless woman! little did sho th nk when she gave herself to the man she tenderly loved, and who promised to pro ect her, that he was soon to become to her the source of thousand woes. With the pencil of fancy she had drawn the scenes of future ife, and they were tinged with sunshine. But soon she learned that the husband of her youth was a drunkard and what could she expect? Despair settled upon her brow, and anguish wrung her bleeding heart. No: one ray of hope shed its giimrrrrins h?r 10'ijRry n:;th As :f d'.s lined to woes, with her sorrows her carev increased. Two infant childr m demanded oer attention and her tears, the younger of which was but a few weeks old when its mother fell a victim to neg'eci and despair. And here l?*t simple narrative tell her tale of wo. Ween her is.t'unr was about t n days old, she was under the necessity of gi ing out through drifts an 1 snow and piercing winds, to gather fuel to keep from freezing?her husband was gone on a drunken frolic. She took a severe cold, and was confined to a bed ofsiraw, (for such .t Iterally was.) No longer able to walk or even set up, early one morning as tier brutal husband was setting off for the tavern to spend the day, sfio expostulated with bun, and endeavored to impress upon his mmd her distressed and critical condition She seemed to succeed. Hut, O delusive hope ? She told him she must have assistance soon, or her stay in the land of the living was short, lie s?emeu to ieei.? She prevailed on him to go for medical aid. He crossed the river St. Lawrence on the ice to Kingston, (a distance of four nules,) and obtained a phial of nv dicine at the op othecary's store, and left in haste for his sick family. He was returning with ap? parent concern, and was passing the com. r of the street, when one of his associates in profligacy, looking through the window of a contemptible grog-shop, saw his comrade passing, and called him to take something to drink. Although this inebriate knew that the re. lief, if not die life, of his family depended on his speedy return?his helpless family being entirely alone, and none of his neighbors had knowledge of his absence?yet this miserable wretch, on hearing the sound of rum, and an invitation to partake of the crimson poison, soon forgot a suffering wife and helpless infant, left by hrm in the jaws of death. lleentered the sink of wo and crime, where demons in human form are wont to meet and hold midnight revelry. Here he rem en d na drunken frolic lor several days, djrmg winch it was extremeJy cold, and there wusa heavy fall of snow. ?No one called at his house during ti.e storm, supposing that he was at home with his family. The fire was out?no Iriend to j render assistance?not even the call of a I stranger to give relief. Oil her bed ofstr.iw j with an infant on each arm, and a few shreds of covering, lay the sufferer, pierced with hunger and cold?the bed, fire-place, and floor wero all covered to some depth by the drifting snow. On the third or fourth day he returned with the littie medicine and a bottle of rum. The snow bad so drifted that it was with difficulty he entered his house. All within was siient as the house of death, ft is said the fingers oftho eldest babe were stiffened to maiile, and the tear-drop had frozen upon the infant's cheek. His wife neither soiled nor wept?life stiil flickered within them all. In tins situation he found his neglected and perishing family. He-was intoxicated when he returned?set his raed. icine and bo'.tle of rum on the shelf, and immediately left for his father's family, (nearly half a mile distanw) told his runner the Are had gone our, and his wife WPat home sick, and he wished she would go over and see her?at the same tune stepped into his futiei'- b r, ml tcoka g a>sof brandy. As he cat jut he s aggcred and fed, and there he spent the afternoon. His mo her was unfortunately given to habits of intemperance, und thcu under the influence of ardent spirits. However, with fire and lue! she set olT 10 visit the abode of distress. Shu lound the woman and children sp c les, badly frozen, andapparen* :ly in the ugoi i ;s of death. W.th some difficulty she made a fire?threw a brick and stone into the flames?and while they were heating she discovered the rum. Being exceedingly chilled, she drunk freely 01 it. and thought it would do her good?but it only deprived her ot re ts^p. By this time the brick and stone became very warm, and the drunken mother* applied to the nuked feel of the dying woman. I will only and ihat 10 about thirty minutes the kindes< m.-ssenger from heuven came to her relief-?dial m ^sseuger was death. it fed q ny o to deliver tlie funt ral discourse o? litis unfortunate female. The feelings of my heart, on this occasion, i will not attempt to describe. When the lid of the coffin was removed, and many weeping eyes were ca.-t ng painful looks on her who had fallen a \imin to the casualties of intemperance, 1 saw the husbi n 1 (the author of her hapless fate) stagger up to the coffin, and, to uil appearance, with a heart as unmoved, and an eye us tearless as the cold and lovely form on which he hxoJ his drunken gaze. We all proceeded to the burying ground, and I Mt u p casure in seeing the coffin consigned to its peaceful abode. But whi n I dismissed the audience in the Christian form, with my eyes I saw that drunken ' maniac stagger over the fresh grave of his bosom companion. My heart failed, and mv cnlrif moved within me. and I could not *v "r .?-- ' relVain from exclaiming in my..heart, AL mighty God ! if it is thy will that man should suffer in this life, impose on me wh; t evil seemeth good in thy sight. Lei me live in the cottage o 'poverty all my days, and have uought but the bread of sorrow to eat, and when I am thirsting on a dry, parched de. sert, let me find no water but my own bitter tears ; and when my enemies pursue me, and seek my reputation and my life, and J fl for protection to my last, Ihtnd, let that forsake me.
