Aleocate. Temptation. The Sad Result of One Glass of Wine Just for Old.Acquaintance7s SaJoe.' 'Bear sir, I have heard t&afc you love - y?tt?g^men, .and have come te ask if yon will take my poor son here, and io something for him. I>on't refase me, for I seem to be passing through the valley and the shadows, and to be forsaken.' The speaker was an aged, j hard-working woman. *I have no authority to adm?.t any I monar to -tbc Home, bat that power bo] longs to the superintendent.' ; v *W3l -yon: ask him V fGo right to the house sad get that boy/ said the superintendent, to whom I presented the case. .I'll give bim a good room and keep him as long as you think best; and if you find the woman oeeds coal, or food or money to pay her l*nt, I'll help her.' I found him on the verge of delirium tremens, trembling like an aspen leaf, and in that condition in which a person craves for something to cling to, and for the support and control of a stronger ?ature. 1 took him to the institution, gave him a warm bath, administered a .scdorific, and put bim to bed in a dark j room. .After sleeping about three hours, lie awoke, with a frantic craving for liquor; begging me on his knees to ! allow him 'just coe glass, to steady his j nerves aod to taper off with ; only one glass and then he could go to sleep, and would love me as long as he lived,' protesting he 'should die if he din't get it.' i^refosed, but gave him strong w?ee and some light food, and finally got him to bed, when, after Bleeping more than five hoars, his rest broken with convulsive starts, he awoke some? what refreshed, and submitted to my control like a chlild. I talked with him, took long walks with him in the open country till his strength and ap? petite returned, 'and he obtained com? mand of himself, and resolved to make another effort to conquer the demon of appetite. His old master under whom he had worked, consented to try him again, saying that, *when sober, be was the best workman be ever employ? ed.' He was then able return home. At the end of three months' His mother same to see me ; there were tears in ber eyes, but they were tears of grati? tude and joy. *Oh V she said, 'we are happy once more, both of us. My son is himself again ; he says he is done forever with liquor and with bis old associates. He sits and reads to me in the evenings, while I sew or knit, or plays on his Bute; we go together to lectures. He seems to feel safe only Awhile he is with me. , This happy, state, of affairs continued for nearly, three years, when I received i summons from Mrs. Ir-""--to com? im mediately, for George was dying. One ofhia former companions bad persuaded bim to take te* with him, just to show that the latter retained DO hardness, ind finally induced him to drink a glass of wine, ^merely for old acquaintance's sake, nothing more, 'for he was a sober mau now, and could take a glass with? out injury.' The result of this was to wake up the old appetite. He drank again and again, and went home to his mother intoxicated. Despairing now of his ability to resist temptation, he" procured some laudanum, and lying iown on a bed'in the room where his mother was at work, unperceived by ber, drank the poison. So long a time bad elapsed before his mother discover sd his condition and could procure physicians, that the poison had passed into the circulation, and could neither be removed nor neutralized. He soon ifter died. Gould imagination conceive a more somber picture ?han is here presented ?a the hardest lines of naked fact, or action portray anything more affecting than the melancholy experiences of that mother when compelled to realize that ill maternal anxieties, long years of unremitting tjil and struggles with pov? erty, endured for the sake of that son, bad* resulted tn rearing him to die by bis own act and ?11 a drunkard's grave ? We pity him, but the man that iempted him-what shall we say of bim ? Society has too many men like fan?.-Rev. Elijah Kellogg, in Youth's Companion.
