THE FIRST AND LAST VISIT TO A1 DRAM SHOP. Timothy Trtiesdell is the fefeme we shall assign to a very; v orthy industrious and thri ving mechanic of New York, who became a burden to himself, anxl a curse to his fami ly ad a nuisance tp socjety at large, in short one of the, most $hameless and abandoned Jruukards that ever took the measure of ah unmade grave in a Gotham gutter. He was not weaned from bis! degrading propensity ty the Temperance, or the Tract or any oth er preceptive Society. Their benevolent logic was lost on Tm, who was not one of your " curtain drinkers." He would have uncorked a bottle amid the quakings and thunders of Mount Sinai, and drained it by the exploding Vesuvius . It was woman's love that cured him,"and all women may get a just idea of their Own importance in socie ty, from reading this story. Though" he had a wife and Eve beautiful children.Tim. seemed unconscious of the fact. He neglected his work, squandered his ear nings, which daily grew smaller, and Rpent bis time at the pot house, till the nigh pros tration oi an nis uculties or the distasteful vords no trust V warned him to seek the shelter of his wife's care and protection. His children could not go to school, because learning was dear arid; rum was cheap : the landlord dunned .Tor his rent, and Mrs. Trues It WdS UUIlgeU lO Keep at nO me, as Sne had l 1 A - 1 I 1 aFpc uruau m, uavmg pawn- ed the last to pay a fine imposed upon her spouse by the police court Misery, utter BBu uu .amine, siarcc xne unnappy lamnyin ,ne iace. iitis impossible to ex- oggcmic iuc picture, eveu itau we room or inclination. Mrs. T. was a heroine though not of romance. She loved her worthless husband and had borne his neglect, the tears of her children, the gripe Of famine, and the railings of the drunkard .without repining.--Never had her exertions slackened never bad a harsh word passed her lips. At night, I when she put her children to sleep, she wept and watched for his coming, and when he uu come drunk as vsual, she undressed and assisted him to bed, without a murmur of reproach. At length, her courage well nigh exhausted, she resoved upon one last des perate effort. Ml At night.having disposed of her three oldest children, she took the two youngest by the .hand and bent her steps to the groggery her husband wa3 accustomed to frequent: she looked in at the window, and there he sat, in the midst of his booh companions, vi ilh his pipe in his mouth and his glass in his hand. He was evidently excited though not yet drunk. Great was the astonishment of that bad company, and enormous Mr. TruesdelFs conlusjon and dismay, ; when his wife, pale would hardly keep in his head. It was pres as marble, and leading two tattered and bare- entlv out. The Yorkers wisely declined fol- footed babes, stepped up to the bar, called ior tnree glasses of brandy toddy, and then sal down by his side; What the devil brings you here, Mary?' saui he morosely. I n it is very lonesome, at home, and your business seldom allows you to be there, re plied the meek wife. There is no com pany like yours, and as you cannot come to me, I must come to you. I have a right to share your pleasures as well as your sor rows.' But to come to such a place as this !' expostulated Tim.' ! ; ' No nlace can be lmnroner where my husband is is,' said poor Mary. Whom God hath joined -together, let no man put asunder,' She took u pi the glass of spirits. Surely you are not going to drink that?' asked Tim in huge astonishment. W hy not I. You say you drink to forget sorro w , and if bratidv has that effec4, 1 am I sole no HTlog creatnre.nas so good an excuse for drinking as I. Besides, I have not eaten a rnonthful to-day. and I really need-aorne-thing lo support my strength.' Woman I woniaji !j you are not going to give the children such stuff as that cried - . m ' : mm 1 Tim. as she handed each oi the ciuiuren a glass of liauor. !i Whv not ? Can I children have a better exam nle than their father's ? Is not what is good him, good for. them also ? It will put them to sleep and they will forget that they are cold and hungry. H ilrinK, my cniiuren, this is fire, and bed. and foodand clothing; Drink von can see "itow much firdod.it does your father. : - i - . With seeming reluctance, Mary,; sofferea I her husband to conduct her home, and that) night he prayed long1 land fervently, which ne had not done before for years. The next evening as lie returned home Ward with n stAnrlv stpri he saw his eldest bV run into the "house and heard him elaim. Oh mAtKpp: fipre com es father, and w s not drunk !' Tears coursed down the v-ttt n n 1 rn a i . k-s- m - , t t parent's cheek, and from that hour he lias not tasted a drop of strong drink. He had never been vicious or unfeeling, and as soon as his emancipation from the thraldom of a debasing appetite became known, friends. employment and prosperity returned to him. ,or Mrs. Truesdell, she is the haDDiest of women: and never thinka tvithmit ;n t ... iiiiuu. jvj aim grauiuue, ot her first and last visit to the uram shop. ANECDOTE OF SHERIDAN. The following compliment was paid to old Sheri- Pas in Norfolk, by an Irish servant belonging to Mr Coke, who attended him on his shooting excursion, and which Sherry re-told with great glee. Shot th? first, (the birds all getting away); More power to your honor ! Did vou see one little fellow drop his leg as he went off? He'll never stand on his tin toes a?ain." Shot the 2d, (ditto, ditto : 1 'are an' acrers there they go ! But did'nt your honor hear the shot rattle among them like nase agin a ... t rm Jii 1 nuiucy j iiiey u pray never to see your honor again on this side of the country. Sh6t 3d, (birds all off again) : Blood and ouns! but they've colch't it !' (After watching them awhile), There's three wounded anv how, for they had hardly stringth to fly over yonder hedge :the divil a wink of sleep they'll get this blessed night.' ouot 4, (a pheasant gets away) : 'Well, I never seen a poor gentleman taken like him: he'll remember vour honor many a 'Ion? day for that. The spalpeen is carrying away more shot than would set up an ironmonger at Skibbereen. Shot 5th, (a snipe gets off): Bother! vou may cry crake my fine fellow ; you may take your long bill to the other world. You'll wake to-morrow with a lumbago in your Soft head.' Poor Sheridan could stand this no longer, but gave his countryman a fee for his inge nuity, anu proceeded on his beat alone. THE Qp SNAG. A couple of blades ' once met a Vermonter at a tavern, rhev had heard much of Yan kee ingenuity and they soon determined to see if they could not come round" this son of the Green mountains. Thinking he would be careful of his coppers, they proposed to him in the course of the evening's chat,that pah nftfiom cftnnM ninn to ,n nmlUnrr which the other two should imitaie, or on th refuel nf Mthr n tn dn. K shvinhl n,v all the damages the otners might sustain, and uie score at the bar. The Vermonter was a little wary at first-bot at length consented. One of the Yorkers commenced the game. He pulled off his.coai, walked up tpthe .fire and threw it on. His 'companion aiti'ttrc same. The Vermonter as they had agreed, must do so with his coat, or pay for the oth- . - . . -1 ra? . .1. er two coats anu tne score, uu wem inc erarment on to die fire. The other New Yorker next made a trial. He off boots and hat, and consigued them to the flames. His companion imitaled him, and to their aston ishment, the Yankee was not backward. Now came the Vermonter s lime to lead. Landlord is there a doctor nearl' Yes, ir.' Send for him.' The erentlemen of York began to stare. The doctor soon came in.

C. a weeWy news paper of the above tide. In soliciting the patronage ii me puoijc, ne deems it his duty lo state, as wel his motives for commencing such a publication, as al so rne manner in which it will be conducted. He begg the public to rely on what he says, and to be as sured ihat they may certainly expect all that is pro mised. In the Counties of Granville. Person, Cas- weii, Kockingham, Franklin and Nasb, all of which are in the fame vicinity, there jtfnot a sins'ei press in operation ; and the citizens of these counties mnst of I . ! ... - ? uvm reauing men, are compelled to subscribe for for eign papers, which contain none of the home news. most interesljng to ihe subscribers, and to have their advertisements and job work executed at such a dis lance, as to be inconvenient in the extreme. The undersigned has therefore thoueht that a DSner siiu- aieu in uxioru, wnicn-rs nearly in the centre of this . 1 y-v l .... . . . I vacancy, would afford great facilities and advantages to this community, aside from its merit of apolitical, miscellaneous, and literary character. In addition to tliUMhe northern mail arrives here as soon, or sooner, thanVifdofs :n Rdleigh, and the paper could thus spread through the country, the latest news from Washington, and from the north, quicker than it could posably be obtained from any oiher periodical, or publication in the Stale so that if it were to be nothing bat a mere transcript of the latest intelligence, it would e almost as valuable to this community as the Washington Intelligencer or Globe, and would be beside., much cheaper. But th undersigned intends Ihat it shall be inferi or to none in the Stale, either in point of mechanical execution, or editorial ability. He has made arrange ments for exc hanging with all the most valuajue pub lications in the United States; he has type arid paper! ot superior quality, and printers of great skill and ability. The editorial department will be under the exclusiv control of C. H. Wilet, Esq. a young gen- tlemao whose name, to all who know him, will he a sufficient recommendation. His pen is already favor ably known, and it only .wants an opportunity to be come the most popular in the State. He will spare no exertions to render the paper amusing and instruc tive; and with his varied acquirements as a scholar. a writer, and a man of extensive reading, is able (and he is certainly willing) to afford his readers a Weekly literary treat,, with which they cannot be displeased. Mr. Whet is also a firm and consistent Whig, and although the Mercury will be by no means, what is called a political paper, in common language, yet, it will be ever found advocating the distinctive! tenets of the Whig party, and the genuine principles of '98 and '99. Every thing, however, like parly rancour! party prejudice, and misrepresentation,, will be care fully excluded from the columns of the Mercury. Th Editor is one of those who believes that ho par ty is always right, and who is not disposed to look on all, who differ with him in opinion,, as blinded, cor. rupt, ice. If all parties were as degraded as tbry represent each other to be, they would be fallen in deed, and all our boasted free institutions, nay all the restraints of law, nation.! I, civil and divine, would soon be pros) rated in the whirlwind of contending passions, like rootless stubble before the sweeping blast. While, therefore, the Editor will always be found true to what he considers orthodox Whig doc trines, he will look with an eye of respect, on those whom he deems the wanderers from the true faith and though he may conceive them to be in error, he will alweys regard the great majority of therriLai hon- umns of the Mercury for the exposition and defence of their views; convinced", that truth is only to be ar rived at, after a fair and impartial hearing of the mer its of both sides of every controverted question. With this exposition of his views and designs, the undersigned now submits his Prospectus to a gene rous public, and respectfully solicits their patronage. The community whom he particularly desires to be benefited by this. paper, and for whose support he confidently hopes, are evidently as intelligent, liberal, and patriotic, as any in this or any other state. He firmly believes that they only want an opportunity to afford a triumphant refutation of the illiberal asper sions which tome would cast upon them, by-coming forward and manfully sustaining all laudable enter prise, cherishing and rewarding merit among them selves. He is convinced that the fact of there being no paper published among them, does not prove either their inability, or unwillingness to support one; and only an evidence that no one has yet given them a fair trial. This the undersigned hopes to do, and ne ardently trusts that his estimate of the patriotic zeal and public spirit of this community, will be lound rather below than above the mark. He only wishes them to try him, and if he does uot fulfil, to the let ter, every promise made in this Prospectus, he will not object to their abandoning him at once. W. E, WRIGHT, Proprietor.
