T the Editor of The Tribunc. Toro, Ill., March 8.—But few, I apprehend, can read the story of John Smith m The Home of lasy week without n sorrowing heart and molstencd cyes, it is thesame old, ten-miliion- times-told, tearful tale of wo that ever was, awd ever will be, aden with sad suggestions of the eternal trinity of rum, wrong, und ruin, whose litany is forever written in the wreck of liuman henrts, John Sihith’s recital of the events of that fatal night naturally leads the minds of hls readers into n train of serlous reflections;.and differont opinfons will be'formed s to the de- gree of responsibility that should be charged to each of the netors hi thut briel drama. Rightfully, ho offers no pallintion for hls weakness {n accepting the disnstrous cuo, wnid Jfustlyhe charges upon the Jady who offered it @ sliara of the blame and of the terriblo con- sequences, Whilu both are blamable, I cannot think them equally respousible for the dread results of their erline perpotrated on the night of Jau. 4. e soys the lady ind known him only three months, aud thismust bave been during bis reformed perlod; nud_the presumption is” thot sho knew nothing ol his dissipated life or his wenkness, Witlout danbt she thoughtlessly tendered htin the wine, merely as a soclal courtesy, without the least intention or ex- pectation of dolng him any harm, On the contrary, he knew it all by heart,~knew liow often he had - yielded o the tempter, and the fearful vonsequences of such yielding. e kuew too well that that temoting eup of wine, thougl offcred in kindness by a falr hand, would be to him * the dark beveraga of hell V'3 therefore hie should have had the moral courage to decline it, nnd, if need be, to glve bis reasons franl:ly for refusing Lo accent her courtesy. Who daubts that ihe lady would bave not only excused him for declintug it, but offered him o thousund apolagies faor having, lncnnmdcrnlul?', tendered htm his own ruin?’ Lsuld bo should have had the moral courage to deeline it; 1 will add, ho did have such courage, but fafled to eall it to his ald; for does he not tell us thnt durlny the days of lis worst dissipation, when o friend offered him a situa- tion of profit, he had the moral cournge to shun und did shun all saloons and oiher meana of temptation, and actually became nnd kept sober for a long time? It {a difieult to see why It required greater moial cournze (o resist temptution in the one ense than {o the other. Yes, there was n difTer- enee fu the two cases; but that difference Is to the diseredit of Mr. Smith; for, nrior 10 the night of the 4th ot January, he hud successfully und continuously reslsted the great temptation; ho then knew his power over his appetite, nnd his conselousnsss of thut power was an nuxillary force to ald hinim bis sclf-defeuse.
