Book excerpt: Excerpt from Temperance Tales, or Six Nights With the Washingtonians Their title, Six Nights with the Washing tonians, was suggested, naturally, from the fact of the writer's having been at some of the first experience meetings in only a few months after the formation of the original Wash ington Temperance Society. The impression then made upon his mind by the simple but eloquent details of its members, as they related their sad experiences, can never be efi'aced. Many of the Very experiences to which the wri ter alludes have since been related by these pioneers, in almost every city in the Union, and the whole country can now attest their power to move the heart.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Six Nights With the Washingtonians: And Other Temperance Tales When the Temperance Tales contained in this vol ume were written, and published separately, the writer did not anticipate SO favorable a reception as they have obtained in all directions. He believed that, if he were to enter a field SO full of rich materials as the one opened by the great Temperance Reformation, he might present scenes that would not only deeply interest every family in the land, but act as powerful auxilia ries in the promotion of that noble cause. His success has been far beyond his expectations. But this success has resulted entirely from the fact, that, in every one Of the stories presented, there has been, as its ground work, a basis of real incidents; and these have been detailed without any aim at artificial effect, but simply with a View to let truth and nature speak forth in their legitimate power and pathos.

Excerpt: ...the suffering wife looked her husband intently in ifre face. His words, she scarcely understood, but that act of genuine tenderness towards her, her heart perceived, even in delirium. "It is all well," she murmured, while a sweet smile, whose genuine expression could not be mistaken, lit up every feature, as she closed her eyes, and sank away into a gentle sleep. But the fever abated not. In half an hour she awoke, still unsettled, but with the remembrance of that moment of reconciliation indelibly fixed in her mind. All night long did her husband sit by her bedside, the excitement of the scene compensating for the physical excitement that had been so suddenly withdrawn, and thus keeping his nerves fully strung. Towards morning the fever of his wife abated, and she sunk into a deep sleep. She looked so thin and pale, and death-like as he bent over her, that his heart bounded with an involuntary emotion of fear, lest nature had become too much exhausted. It was long after daylight when she again awoke, an expression of intelligence flitting over her countenance. She found her husband sitting by the bedside, holding her hand in his, and gazing down into her face with a look of subdued tenderness. She closed her eyes, for a moment or two, as if to collect her mind, and then opened them again, and gazed intently upon him. "Was it not all a sweet dream, then?" she murmured, in a doubting tone. "No, Grace, it is no dream; but a blessed reality!" her husband softly answered, bending over and kissing her. "From this hour I am a changed man--from this hour I will be to you what I was in years long passed away: the remembrance of which are still dear to me. Last night I threw myself within the sphere of the great...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Temperance Tales, Vol. 1 of 2 I went out with a heavy heart. It seemed as if the tide of evil was setting against me. As I was passing farmer Johnson's, on mv way home, they called me in. I sat down and rested myself, for a few minutes, in their neat cottage. Farmer Johnson was just returning from the field and when I saw the little ones running to meet him at the stile, and the kind looks, that passed between the good man and his wife; and when I remembered, that we were mar ried on the very same day, and compared my own fortune with theirs, my poor heart burst forth in a flood of tears. They all knew what I was weeping for, and farmer Johnson, in a kind manner, bade me cheer up, and put my trust in God's mercy, and remember that it was often darkest before daylight. The farmer and his wife were members of the temperance society, and had signed the pledge and I had often heard him say, that he believed it had saved him from destruction. He had, before his marriage, and for a year after, been in the habit of taking a little spirit every day. He was an industrious, thriving man; but, shortly after his marriage, he became bound for a neighbor, who ran off, and he was obliged to pay the debt. I have heard him declare, that, when the sheriff took away all his property, and stripped his little cottage, and scarcely left him those trifles, which are secured to the poor man by law and when he considered how ill his poor wife was, at the time, in consequence of the loss of their child, that died only a month before, he was restrained from resorting to the bottle, in his moments of despair, by nothing but a recollection of the pledge he had signed. Farmer Johnson's minister was in favor of pledges, and had often told him, that'aflliction might weaken his judgment and his moral sense, and that the pledge might save him at last, as a plank saves the life of a mariner, who is tost upon the waves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Temperance Tales, Vol. 2 I was fiist called to the ministry as the colleague of a very aged man, the Rev. Adrian More. He was it y father, - not after the flesh, - my own natural father I never lebeld he perished at sea, a few months only before I was born. - This aged minister was my father in the Lord. I was placed under his care, to be prepared for the university and the good old man prepared me, I trust, for the faithful service of the best of masters. When I quitted the univer sity, I was instructed for the ministry under his direction and, sub sequently, at his own request, I became associated with him in his holy othee. This venerable man, at the age of eighty years, gave me the charge upon my ordination; and my first public discourse, on the ensuing Sabbath, was a sermon over his lifeless remains. He was ripe for the sickle, and longed to be gathered in. The energies of a good constitution and the grace of God had sustained him for six and fifty years, in the performance of his sacred trust; and when, in God's good time, his spiritual guard was relieved, by the institution of another at his side; this faithful old soldier of the cross laid down his armor of the present world, and went to that rest, appointed for the dead, who die in the Lord. During the period of my pupilage, we had many pleasant rambles together, and I never failed to gather some useful instruction by the way; for his conscientious impressions of duty, as my instructor, forbade him to be satisfied with affording me the mere technicalities of education; and our conversation, at such times, was eminently useful, in the improvement of my reasoning and colloquial powers.
