Few sadder thing hare been written of Uie consequences of evil habits than tab: "Ye ahall be holden by tbe cords of jour own sins." A leaf from my Journal bring to memory an illustration of wis truth that I shall never forget The atorj ia fearful in some of iu detail, but Us lesson to emphatic. In April. 1840. ob my way from Vera Croat to New York. 1 arrived in New Orlemaa, I had intended upending a few days in the Queen City of the Booth, bat on my arrival I learned that cholera waa prevailing there to an alarmtag extent. It seemed as if every body who could leave the city waa going away, and having nothing hot my own pfeasure to aetata me. I- took passage oa a river ateamer for Cincinnati the Terr next morning after my arrival. Bat although I went oa board the atenaner in the morning, ahe did not leave until late in the afternoon; ai while waiting I made the acquaintance of a yooag man who waa to ahare my rooaa. for the cteamer wan crowded.

He had with him a beautiful little boy. hi oak ehUd. aix yean of age. "Hto mother'died throe days ago of cholera." the father nki. m a tremuknia vok: and then 1 understood why he looked eo aaxion. Thia waa when I firat met hian. in our
room. Not loag after, as I was seated oa tna open deck, forward of the cabin. he came with his child and joined me. I had got the impression that he was Kortbera-hora, ami now I asked him if he had alwavt lived in New Orleans. "No." aura he; "I was born in Cinntnaii, where I am now going. I have an aid father and mother living there, aaaf am going up to leave Loato with thatn lor nwhile. I shall probably settin down tnera btmV aasoon as I can fttthinga.
