Thk white-headed, mak. Many win. tors had passed over him and their frosts were scattered thick upon his temples. His figure was stately jand erect ; his person commanding ; and there was a gravity up on tils, countenance Uwiiniigboth his age and profession.' A large family grew up around him, and he saw his son s sons, even of the secMid generation. , Misfortune had luid her hand upon him, and"poverty with fts privations hi red not to embitter and sadden tho evening ol his days. - Many time have I watched his venerable form, as leaning upon a staff he entered the sanctu. ary on a summer s babbnth morn ; and as I have cant my eye into an adjoining grave yard, I have reflected In a little time, white-headed, aged man, you will he down in tile narrow.house. Ilut to you it will be tho crave of dishonor, for intemperance lias blown upon you its searing blasts." In truth, the aged, white-hcndea man was a dru'iitari',and for his drunkenness I saw him expelled from the church. Despair then sat upon his prospects, and his case was regarded as beyond recovery. Just then a temperance society was formed in tho place f. the subject was carried homo to every family; the white-headed old man heard of a way, of escape, even for him : le embraced it as his lust, his only hope, and now he is no longer a captive. Ho is again a brother among his brethren, and when he goes down to his grave it will be in peace, like a shock ol corn fully ripe. Under Mod, he owes bis escape to the in' flucnce and efforts of tlte Temperance So- ciciy. irmp. Aim. . - . T A t The American Eaglk.- A boatman, while cngnged in conveying salt on the Oiiondago lake, a few years since, saw a largo grav eagle cutting its gyrations in the air, apparently noticing some prey in the lake beneath. In a moment he poised, and darted from bis attitude into the water, from which he was unable to rise. A continued flapping with his broad and extended pin. ions kept him from being drawn under, and j proved that his diamond eyee had not mis. taken their object - tie approached the land slowly, tlio unknown creature below acting aa propcllnnt and helmsman. 1 he boat. man grew interested in the aiTair, and land e7I.'ie5gTe77otH showed himself fastened to a line salmon. Onf'lii'ro, diiuking it a time to lake his share of tlie plunder, cut lumself a stout cudgel and approached the imperial bird of Jove ; which, having his talons last, was unable to rise, advance, or recede. 1 hree times was the club raised to strike, but the noble bearing of the regal bird,, and his unduuntcd I rout, mado even tlie boatman quail. lie could not assault imprisoned majesty. .The eagle exhibited no signs of fear, but occasionally nibbled tho gills of hia prize, and indignantly glanced at the intrusive boatman. At length the talonsof one leg became released, and, by a dexter, ous turn, those of the other, when he soar. d away to his thunder-clouds on hiirh, leaving the much coveted salmon to the boatman, who, on weighing it, foijnd it to BtrrLbiNo' horses.-Not many years ago a pair of miserable lean horses, that looked as though the next grist of "wind would lake them into tlie air, and who were already waiting to have tlieir understanding secured by a few nails, attracted the attention of a wng, while passing a blacksmith's shop, and gravely accosted its occupant with - IJo you build horses, sir T " Build horses ! exclaimed the aston ished son of Vulcan, taking off his paper cap, and Iengtliemng down Iui round good natured face " build horses, sir ! what do you mean T" " Whv, replied . trio wag, I saw couple of frames standing at the door, and thought 1 d just inquire. r What a church member does. In one town through which I passed, says the Sec retary of tlie American lempcranco Soci- ety , there i but one retailer, and he was a mcmberof tlie church ! No person in the plnce sold intoxicating drink except himself, and yet there was one fourth as many druiik- rds in the plnce as there were families. He supplied them all. At one time, his ow,b son in his house was furnishing the THJison-lohrrsT-arrd partakingnof it him- sell, till he became so poisoned he could not stand, and was obliged to be carried home from the house and business of his father, to his heart-broken wife and rhil. dren in a state of intoxication.
