BITTERS TO BE AVOIDED. 

 The man who thinks he cannot eat, 



Before lie takes a bitter, 

 Will soon find out which is the cheat, 



And who the duped creature. 



lie brings a habit on himself. 

 Which hui'ts his constitution. 



Unnerves his limbs, destroys his health, 

 And shakes his resolution. 



The bitter only tends to bring 



An unconti'ollM desire. 

 To double every dose a^ain, 



Till his poor frame's ou fire. 



Thus, by dcijrees, he swigs it on. 



Till he has lost all shame ; 

 And no advice his friends can give 



Will stop the raging flame. 



Wiih faltering limbs and bleared ey,s 

 He staggers through the street, 



Derided by the idle boys 

 Whom he may chance to meet. 



At home, his family forlorn, 

 Oppress'd with heartfelt grief, 



Keel the sharp stings of sorrow's thorn, 

 But cannot find relief. 



The die is cast — fiU'd with disgrace, 

 Drawn from the pois'nousbowl. 



He is a pest to all his race, 

 A murd'rer of his soul.

must have lost herself in the woods, r.nrl the ter- 

 ror of himself and his frieirls were excited to the 

 utmost. No accounts were I'.eard of her, and sev- 

 eral days were spent in search. The Jiusband be- 

 came disconsolate. He dreaded the worst. The 

 whole settlemer.t became excites! on the occasion, 

 but fruitless every search was found. A week, a 

 fortnight, and a month passed. Tlic unfortunate 

 young woman was given up for lost. The young 

 man (her liusband) made every search, but it was 

 of no avail. 



In about a year after, at the distance of five 

 miles from the settlement, a wood-cutter one day 

 fell in with a skeleton of some curious creature, as 

 he thought, which e.xcited his curiosity. On one 

 of the small bones of what appeared to be a finger 

 he found a gold ring, which, on being showed to 

 the young widower, he recognised to be the wed- 

 ding-ring of his long lost bride. — JK'alional Adv.
