The pale young man hind removed his head from its Place of m, and sat bolt upright, listening very egorly to the re- marks of the two gentk'men upon the back" Seat. _ ,3 - ‘No,’ said Clavicle within mournfnl shake of the head. And then, in sad»; despondent~ tones, he addcd, ‘ It is one of the most éritical cases I have ever met, and I am free to admin that I deem neither my services, no? those of Dr. Ganglion, of ‘any practicn} benefit. I have urged it upon her father that she should be sent to an asylum, where she can have such care and treatment as we cannot give.’ I ‘ Really, sir, I do not feel llke telling you. I have too much respectâ€"too much feelingâ€"for the. young lady, to expose the sad, sadâ€"0h! how sad lâ€"But you should know, sir, how it must be. What is there on earth-more low and degraded than a human being utterly devoid of geason and intellect ? I have seen a few, and I pray to God that. I may never see another 1’ ‘Have you any hopei; of curing tht‘a~ 70119.8 lad}?! 13k“! Mor’eieler- ‘ The doctor then went on and made out a. sad case of insanity for Mary, and in reply to the question, as to how she appearegi, said :_ - -... Mortimer ofi'ered a few remarks upon the subject thus presfimd, and then re- marked : ‘ I should judge, fr “hat you say, that the lady has luci ervals.’ v f,Oâ€"bless youâ€"yes, Sometimes she goes‘a. month, and is perfectly sane all the while.’ a. ‘ That is curious,’ suggested the old gentl-emAan. ‘ And yet,’ said Clavicle, with another of those affable bows, ‘ the cause is plain Here it is: The paroxysm of insanity comes on, and the poorlgirl raves and tears until her vital energy is entirely exhausted. This utter exhaustion dei prives the brain of its'electricityxeducing it to a state of entire inaction, andneces- sarin allayiug the inflammation. As soon as this occurs all becomes quiet in the eucephalic region, and reason returns. The young lady, upon thus awaking to reason, finds herself, of cg'firsc, very low and weak; while that'corflition remains her reason will remain w it. But it cannot be so lon . a ' willgo on and build up. anéu ’ 7 the blood Wil .7 * ‘ ‘ that the brain is filled; and just at the‘ moment health seems fully restored-â€" when the circulation has become natural and strong, and the brain active and vigorousâ€" the inflammation is excited and in that seemingly happy hour she falls again! 0, it is dreadful. She has just come out from one of those protracâ€" ted spells, and will probably retain her senses for a month, or so; only for a week or two she will be quite low, and suffer with a headache. I think her father has some thoughts of employing a new nurse; and I don’t know but that he may have concluded to send his child to an gasylum.’ ‘ tht reason have you for thinking that?’ asked Mortimor. . ‘ Well,’ replied Clavicle, with a light laugh, ‘ you might pronounce my grounds for the opinion very weak ones. And I am free to confess that, were not the idea perfectly ridiculous, I should think the old gentleman meant to marry his daugh- ter off, and so give somebody else the pri- vilege of taking care of her. But, be it a husband, or a new physician, there is one thing of which I am very sure. I heard him remark that the man would ‘eventually have the whole estate for his own, and he could afford to take care of 3 a crazy wife. That was his wordâ€"wife â€"but then I cannot think he meant it. And yet his whole course for the last few months leans very strongly in that direction. Butâ€" mind youâ€"you will not mention any such thought as having come from me; because I cannot belieVe that Gottlieb Snyder would be guilty of such a thing. Touching the fact of his denial of his daughter’s insanity to others, I do not know as I ought to have mentioned it here; but I trust you are men of honor.’ Both Deltoid and Mr. Langworthy promised that they would say nothing; while the pale-faced man upon the for- ward seat bowed his head and held his peace. It was late in the afternoon when the stage reached Anworth, and as Mr. Peter Schermerhorn stopped at the onlyr public- house the village boasted, Mortimer Delâ€" toid sought. the dwelling of a friend, where he found comfortable quarters. In the evening Schemerhern called at the dwelling of Mr. Snyderâ€"a splendid mansion, on a gentle eminence, with the village spreading away at its foot. The old farmer was glad to see him; or, at all events, he said so; though it was plain to be seen that. he did not extend that warm heart-Welcome which one gives ‘to a visitor whom he loves. If the truth must be told, Gottlieh Snyder loved his sweet daughter as he loved his owu life; and her happiness was his chief aim. He had heard that Peter Schermerhonr was not an indus- trious man; and, also, that he was not a pattern of steadiness and sobriety. But his sacred honor was at stake in his sol~ emnly pledged word, and he would have cast all his wealth to the winds sooner than break it. As Peter Sehermerhorn now satin the light of the large astral lamp the keen- eyod old man detected long-VI continued IWXTOIIIG Off A IIVAL. gitmtm. (con-rmva By and by Peter inquired after Mary ; and Gottlieb told him that she was not Ewelli 'and could not see him that evening; but he should see her on the morrow. 1 How cold and cheerless that meeting ‘Lwasr Mr. Snyder could not but feel that he was in the presence of one who pro- mied to bring sadness and sorrow to his household; for, at best, he knew that his child could never love this man; while Peter Schermerhoru felt that he was in the presence of one who sought to put off upon him the care of a crazy daughter. He had too much confidence in his own personal appearance, and set too great a value upon his individual merits, to entertain for a moment the thought that any could object to him for a son-in-law. debauch. Such a man might reform, but it would be painful to risk the happiness of a beloved child upon such an event. Gottlieb could now very Well understand why Peter's arents wished to hasten the marriageâ€"why they would have their son make his home in the distant country, and take a pure hearted wife for a. com- panion, But what a sacrifice for him! What a sacrifice for his gentle child 1 An hour was thus consumed, Peter answering questions concerning his pa.- rents, and concerning business in the city and occasionly asking a question about affairs in the country, when the visitor arose to take his leave. ‘ How 1’ exclaimed Snyder, in real surprise. ‘ Do you not stay with me to- nig_ht ?’ A But the young man had left his tra- velling-bag at the public houseâ€"his night clothes were in itâ€"and he would return there. After he had gone Gottlieb Snyder stood in the" hall with his head bowed, and_1_)y mg! by he: said. t9_hix‘nself : . ‘ No, no, Gottlieb Snyder I You don’t come that over me I I can read you my gay old lark! A country life isn’t very enticing anyhow, and when you come to throw in a load of that sort, it won’t go down 1’ ‘ Paor Mar} 1 I wish I had never made that cgmpact‘ !’ .. ‘vx. And at the self-same moment- Peter Schermerhom had stopped at the foot of the pizza steps, and was looking back to- wards the door which had just closed behind him. When the stage pulled up in front of the tavern on the following morning, Peter Schermerhorn got on board; and half an hour afterwards Gottlieb Snyder received a letter by the hand of the land- lord’s boy. He recognized the superscrip- tion, and upon breaking the seal he read 1.10175; ‘ ANWOTH, Sept. 7th, 185-. ‘ MLG. SNYDERâ€"I am not an old man; but I have cut my eye teeth I 1 should likerthe {ypney yqur fag-{n'is-wgrth ; and I might like the farm if I had the dis-3 position to establish an Insane Asylum; but as crazy people were always very unâ€" pleasant companions for me, I shall do nothing of that kind. You may succeed in picking up some flat who will take your precious daughter 011' your hands; but you will have to look for some one other than Yours thankfully, ‘ PETER SCHERMEBHOBN,’ Gottlieb Snyder was pacing up and down his parlor in a foaming state of ex- citement when Mortimer Deltoid present- ed himself. The doctor had seen Scher- merhorn depart, and had lost no time in seeking to pay his respects to his old lfriend. ‘My dear Sir,’ said Mortimer; after they had shaken hands, and the 01d gentleman had tried to tell him that he was glad to see him, ‘ what is the mat- ter ? Has any accident happened ?’ ‘ Matter ?â€"â€"â€"'Accident ?â€"6, the vil- lian ! the ingrate I the imprudent rascal l Butâ€"Mr. Deltoidâ€" read that letter, sir, â€"read in' And he handed the letter to his visim tor, who took a seat and read it. ‘ What do you think of that, doctor '2’ ‘ First,’returned Mortlmer, soothingly, ‘ allow me to ask you a question : Do you think that Peter Schermerhorn would have made a. fitting husband for your daughter?’ . . v n c ‘No, Sir,~â€"I do not.’ Snyder sat 6mm, and presently added, in a lower and calmer tone. ‘And I ought to thank heaven that I am rid of him 1‘ ' Mr. Snyder, said the young physi- cian, with a solemnity which was truly felt, ‘I have long known that Peter Schermerhorn was not a properly-behaved youth. You are acquainted with Dr. Thomas Clavicle ?’ ‘ Yes, my boy,â€"â€"I know him well.’ ‘And, sir,’ pursued Mortimer, ‘he knew young Schermerhorn even better than Idid; and he proposed that the l profligate ought not to marry with such a gifi as yBur daughter. 'I must ac- knowledge, sir, that I lent myself to the plot of my friend, and that; I helped him to carry 1? out.’ And thereupon Mortimer told the whole story, from beginning to end, even to giving the conversation, word for word, as it had occurred in the coach. The old man listened attentively, at first with sober earnestness ; but gradually the mus- cles about the corners of his eyes and mouth relaxed; and at length, when it 1came to the description of the disease which Clavicle had given to Mr. Lang- worthy, he laughed outright. ‘ M'y dear sir,’ cried the young man, when he had concluded his story, ‘ I know that it was a bold and highâ€"handed step ; and I furthermore acknowledge that my own selfish love for Mary led me on. And now I ask you, Bo you blame me ?’ ‘ Blame you ?’ repeated theold farmer, starting forward and grasping Mortimer by the hand. ‘No,‘ no. I bless you a ‘thousand times. Many, many a time ‘ have I been sorely tempted to break the ifaith I plighted, and refuse the hand of my sweet child to that man ; but my Word had been so solemnly pledged‘ that I dared not. break it. Now, howeve'r’; I am free, and my child may be’ happy.â€" lAgain, and again, my dear’ Moftlmer, do I bless you for what you have done 1’ And by and by Mary Came down, and Mortimer receiVeci Rfimner blessing. And on the um: day Mortimer was at the tavern when the stage coach came, and be seized his friend Clavicle, and forced him to stop fiver. ' Stop until toumof’raw, and I will re- turn with you. You must see my Mary: and both she and her father wish very much to thank you.’ In due time Dr. Mortimer Deltoid re- turned {0 New York the accepted lover of Mary Snyder, and she his afl'ancied bride. A short time after Mortimer and Mary were married Peter Schermerhorn was heard to declare that he believed ” that the doctor had lied.” And he further- more expressed the opinion that said doc- tor had been led to magnify the ailment of Mary Snider, so that he might gain great credit for her cure. But whether Peter has ever come to a knowledge of the fact that the story of “ that poctor ” was got up for the simple purpose of switching him off the track,we cannot say. Second Session (commune) 0n the first of March, the Common House of Assembly, on considering that part of the above report which states, that a sum of £617: 133: 7d. was paid out of the public funds without the authority of Parliament, and in Vic- lation of their rights and privileges, re- solved on the following address to thel’re- sident, which address he signified his pleasure of receiving at ten o’clock on Monday the 3d of March, and the same was accordingly presented by the whole House. To his Honor Alexander Grant. Esquire, President, Administering the Government of the Province of Upper Canada, (kc. May it please your Honor, " Yield: Mzriesty’fl mmfidutifnl and loyal Subjects the Commons of Upper Canada in Parliament assembled, have, conformably to our early assurance to to your honor, taken into consideration the Public Accounts of the Province; and have, on a due investigation of the same, to represent to you, that the first and most constitutional privilege of the Commons has been violated, in the appli- cation of monies out of the Provincial Treasury to various purposes, without the assent of Parliament, or" a vote of the Commons House of Assembly. _ To comment on this departuize from constituted authority and fiscal establish- ment, must be more than painful to all who appreciate the advantages of our happy Constitution and who wish their continuance to the latest posterity: but however studious we may be to refrain from stricture, we cannot suppress the mixed emotion of our relative condition. â€"We feel it as the representatives of a free peopleâ€"We lament it as the subjects of a benificent Sovereign, and we hope that you, in your relation to both, will more than sympathise in so extraordinary an occurance. We beg leave to annex hereunto a Schedule of the monies so misplaced, amounting to £617: 135: 7d. and we trust. that you will not only order this sum to be replaced in the Provin- cial Treasury, but will also direct that; no monies be issued therout in future, without the assent of Parliament, or a vote of the Commons House of Assembly.

That a propensity to fib someâ€" times runs in families is beyond dispute. The sins of parents are not only visited upon their children‘, but, in many in- stances, appear to be' inheritvd by them from generation to‘ generation. An evil twist in the moral nature of a parent is, we fear, more apt to be inherited than a virtue; just as physical ugliness is more frequently transmitted by descent than phisical beauty'.- We do not believe how- ever, that a tendency to “ tall stories,” is under any circumstances, inerudicable, if taken in time". The hereditary diseases of the flesh were once thought to be incurable; but we know better now; and charitable Christians, also, believe that hereditary moral infirmi‘ties are not beyond the reach of moral medication. But mendacity must be dealt with in the gristle. A mature falsifier is a hard subject. It is next to impossible to school his vile idiosyncracy out of him. With children it is otherwise. The value and impor- tanee of truth may be so impressed upon them by counsel, by illustration, by disci- pline, that they will never depart from it in afterâ€"life. The most untruthful child, we are inclined to think, may be reform- ed by a proper course of treatment. Mere flogging, however, which is the usual pre- 1 scription, will not affect a cure. Its only ’result, in nine cases out of ten, will be to render the recipient more cautious and methodical in his fabrications. Convmee an; untruthfnl boy’s reason that honesty of speech is the best policy; that lying is not only an offence against God, but ‘ leads inevitably to temporal degradation and ruin ; and you Wlll have his self-in- terest, pride and conscience all on your side, and may safely count on his reforâ€" l mation.
