At G o'clock the Collector's tug started down the har :bor,aod met the ventarfcsoine marines tat -about 8 o'clock, opposite the tower fight, and towed thetu t this city.

These arc the two men who, actuated, as the former said, by a ' mere whim." were induced to m tke this attempt, which few could regard as rany thing but foolhardint ss, after seeing destinies,', and Vh ung their lives by a .mreithread.

They had a great deal of very heavy weather, but the little bark bore Jierself nobly, and the men themselves expressed surprise that she rodo the heavy gales so staunchly. She was LEAK I NO A LL T II E WAY, and the pumps, .of which they have two, were kept at work constantly. In the severe gale of last SaTTirday, they experienced thn hardest time of the voyage, but suffered no disaster, save the carrying away of the jiugcr boom. The largest uuniber of miles made in one day was one hundred and fifty three, i which was mude in th" firt part of the voyage, aud thermal test eleven miles. The average speed was four knots an hour. A number of vessels were ' spoken on ; the voyage, among which were the bark Kadcliffe, on the 28th of June, bound to Quebec ; the ship Moxwell, August 9, and tho homeward bound steamer Russia on the 24th of August. From the first of these two they took in supplies of provisions and water! Two whales were very neighborly off Cape Clear, coming near enough to bo touched with the hand, and giving the voy-g rs some alarm lest they should.upset their trail ship. One of ' Mother Carey's chicken's" attended ihem from the time they left Queens town till they pased George's Bank. The men say that they had the most prf-ct confidence in the success of their enterprise, and in the - roughest Sale could go to sleep with the greatest composure. Only the 'lateness of the season prevents, them from returning home as they' came. Their original in tention was to go direct to New York, but they concluded to put into this port, and will go from here to the former place, and will remaiu this side of th Atlantic till another summer. They were towed to Long Wharf by the tugr and there can bo seen this smallest of all crafts that ever traversed the broad Atlautic. r To Stop Usino Tobacco.- Dr. Bio Lewis says: " I know I do not. echo the voice of the world when I pay tha.t the use of tobacco paralyses and dead ens the moral sensibilities almost more than auy oth r habit in which civilized men indulge. Gentlemen, I advise you to clean yourselves aud quit. I would iveit up. It i a nasty disgusting, ruinous habit. But somebody says, i can't give it np ; I want to, and have tried, but I can't do it." Can't you ? Then I would'nt. But if you really are so enslaved that you cannot gt t out of your chain v I wiH help you a little Stop to-night; don't use any to-morrow. The first day will not be so very hard. ; You can get on pretty well the fiit day, as everybody knows who has ben through the mill, as I have been. The second day is pretty a 1 In the afternoon of the second day your mem ory is a little doubtful; you can't ex actly s;iy whether it was two brothers or three brothers that came over-; you can't exactly say whether your grand father came from the Ivjst or the -A Vest when he settled here, t ut be patient the second day. The third morning comes the tua:. Now go and tako an old fashioned alcohol sweat until your skin is nearly parboiled. Then you will be quite as comfortable for one day as you could wish. There is no dryness of the mouth, no disturbance of-the secretions. You are perfectly comfort able for one day. The next day you are in trouble again, mt not so bad as the day before. Take another sweat, take even a third or fourth ouo. Sweat ing does no't hurt people ; sometimes it is good for them. Take three or four thorough sweats, aud then you will go oft under easy sail, and will have no further trouble from your enemy." The .same may be said with respect to alcolol.

The Mtssetiger ' thinks one of the most absurd perform mces of the tims is the manner in which people at pub lic meeting seek religion. It siys: Kxcited seekers arc agnixing and shouting and praying for faith without any well defined notion of the fact or facts to be believed, the evidence upon which they rest? 3 The spiritual guide at such meetings is generally boisterous nd sontioies, impu lent, if not - irre verent, in reminding the Lord that He has made Certain promises and requir ing and almost commanding Him to come down now, and fulfill them. Wilt the Messenger be kind enough to inform us, as to the correct aud sure , , t , -, way to seek pardon, and how we can brin about regeneration, and a new birth in a respectable manner, t lie end of which shall be Heaven. A Sensible Prayer. A " nice youag man," ho had changed his mind for another, asked his affianced, on the evening of their appointed mar riage, if she would release him from the eniragcment.
