Have made and lost, much mon ey. Have credited large stocks of goods out, which I myself bought.on credit, and have stood year after year, over the brink'of a petit up volcano, expecting that those who owed me would t.Vplude and blow me into atoms.

Obliged to raise ttioney at high, exorbitant rates of inte rest, to take up my paper with, because my debtors were so long=winded in their pay meats to me. Stock's depreciating in value. Fashions changing. Dishonest clerks specu lating from my money drawer. Ah, my friend, 1 du not_ wonder you stare with as tonishineut. Let me hear you laugh, it has a charm for me. Sunshine sir ! a merchant's heart, if he cares fer his reputation and his credit, which ;embarked in such a hazardous business as a wholesaler, has no sunshine. He dun% kuow the feeliug, sir. Care, cor roding care eats up his heart; weighs him down; turns day into night; he can't shake it off, it is a horrible ing - htware. - He to New York, sir; he buys tifty thousand dollars worth of g oods on time, and gives notes. 0! these bank notes—fearful words to a man who has a credit at stake, and re lieS upon his customers to pay their notes by which he may be able to inert his own. See him: sir, fairly embarked like a ship at, sea, and this ship is surrounded on all sides by huge icebergs, perfect inountaitis--no chance of escape ; bye and bye he sees they are coining down upon - him ; he is hemmed in; slowly and quietly those huge piles advance, steadily thev come; the ship surely be crushed. :lye, not a chip left of her—down they come. Hold ! a little blue sky is seen, the escapes, she gets into the sea once more. - • The ship is like the merchant ; the moun tains of ice, the bank notes, the bills. payable ; the blue sky,ithe bills receivabili. But some times the bills receivable are not met, and the ship is crushed to atoms. • How do you like the picture, my friend ? So much fur a merchaut'Oile. W are not what we seem. Our extensive business is all on paper—mere trash; the great noise we make is produced from the emptiness of our pretensions. will you take your place at the desk, and let the cash rain down upon you! Nay, you aretoosensible a man. Stick to the farm ; you are a lord—aye, a king; independent; owing no man, while the poor merchant - must cringe and fawn up on banks and money lenders. - Yes, sir, go d o wn on l'ijs knees to get money to save his credit. Sir, producers can say, we ask noth ing of the banks, nothing of the merchants ; both • ask everything that - constitutes the whole of life's cvmforts from us. Give - me now your property for mine, with my kind of life with it! Nay. when I tell you that one disastrous year with the kind of business I am dvii.s, would sweep away all I am worth—will you exchange situations with llle r `Friend Yardstick, I thank You; but what a picture you have set before me. never despise the uld farmer again, u - ever. Let us juin Mrs. Iloehandie iu the dining room, nod as we take a quiet lunch, with a thankful heart, 'we will drink, in a glass of domestic :itawhit, this toast: The farmer, the luckiest man on earth.' Perhaps the above may be a fair specimen of the groundlessness of diswutent, and of its prevalence among all classes. This false view of others extends. through all classes of society, very often leaditig the young, especially, ,into pursuits for. ;hi& they are nut, and never can be fitted. The Ihruier's or mechanic's son wisheS he was a clerk, or a student at law, or of medicine— the studentand clerk think they are too much Confined, and frequently wish they were in the place of the farmer's . son—the lawyer thinks the editor is, making ,inoney, and the editor thinks the lawyer js—the farmer's wife thinks the wife of the merchant or of the professiemil Men-look upon the tanner's wife as mistress of creatiou--Lthe girl that works at housework wishes she was a milliner, or tailoress; mid the inilliuer and tailoress wish they Were school teachers, and .the school leacher thinks she is a : perfect Shire, and ' lungs fur Soule other situation. Thus the world acts as if its was all out of place ho cause each person forms a false estimate of . the- "others.

The clock had just struck one, and all the family slept soundly, when all at once a dull sound proceeded from the rooms containing the bodies. Thinking that perhaps the cat had been shut up' fhere by mistake, he went to see what. codld be the cause of the unexpected noise. What was his astonishment. or rath er his horror, on discovering that the sack whirdi contained the bodies m,as torn assum der ; and , un ,g*tig nearer, he found that one of the bodies v4s jnis.sing ! The doors and windows had ben fastened with the greatest care, and it. appeared im pix-,sible that the body could have been stolen. The good doctor appeared rather nervous on remarking this, and it was not withoutan un usual sensation that he began to look about him, when to his horror and amazement, he perceived that the missing body was sitting upright in the corner. Poor Dr. 13—, at this unexpected appa rition, became transfi x ed with terror, which was increased by observing the dead and sunken eyes of the corpse fixiKl upon him— .whichever way he moved, those dreadful eyes still followed him. The worthy doctor more dead than alive, now began to beat a quick retreat, without, however, losing sight of the object of his ter ror ; he retreated step by step, one hand holding the candle, the other' , extended in search.of the door, which he at length gain ed; but there is no escape, the spectre has risen and followed him, whose livid features, added to the lateness of the hour and the stallikess of the night, seem to conspire to de prive the poor doctor of the little courage he has left.; his strength fails, the candle-falls trum his hand, and the terrible scene is now in complete darkness. The good doctor has, however, gained his apartment, and thrown himself-on his bed--- : but the fearful spectre has still followed him ; it has caught him, and seizes hold of his feet with both hands. At this climax of. terror the doctor loudly exclaimed," WhoeVer•you are, leave me !" At this the spectre let go its hold, and moaned feebly these words : " Pity, good hangman, have pity on me.?" The doctor now discovered the mystery, and regained by little and little his composure. lie explained to the criminal who had so narrowly escaped death, who lie was, and -prepared to call up some of his family. " Do you, then, wish to destroy roe 1" ex claimed the criminal. - "If I am discovered my adventure will become , public, and I shall be brought to the scaffold a second time. In the name of humanity, save me from death. - The good doctor then rose and procured a light,- he muffled his_ unexpected visiter in an old• dressing gown, and having made him takb some restoring cordial, testitied a desire to kuo what .critne brought him to the scaffold. - •He was a deserter. The good doctor did not well know what means to employ to save the poor creature. He could not keep him in his house, and to turn him out would be to expose hint to cer tain 'death. The only way then, - was to get him to the ceur try ; so having 'nude him dress himself in some 'old clothes which the doctor selected from his wordrobe, he left town early, aCcoHupanied by his protg,e,whoin he representdd as an assistant in a difficult case upon whi'cli he had been called in. When they _had gut into' the open coun try, the wretched creature threw himself at the feet •of his benefactor and liberator, to whom lie swore , an eternal gratitude ; and the generous doctor having relieved his wants by a small sum of money, the grateful erea sure left him with many blessings and pray= em for his, happiness. About twelve years- after this occUrrence Dr. .13— had occasion to visit Amsterdam. Having gone one day to the bank, he was accosted by a well dressed man—one who had been pointed out to him as one of the most opulent merchants of that city.. The merchant asked him politely ifhe was not Dr. of Loudon, and on his an swering him in the affirmative, pressed him to dine at his. house; which invitation the worthy doctor accepted. On arriving at the ,merchant's *we, 111.: was shown to au elegant apartment, where a ; mosl charming WOrnall and two_ lovely :children welcomed him in the most friendly wanner.; which_ reception surprised hint the ,core, cowing tient, pepons he had never before met. - • - • After din her ,the, tnerchant,, hexing: take n hint into 'hiS cottnting l hoyse, acizetthis Inond, nut "having pressed. it with friendly Ivarintla ' said-to him " Do Y9u nOt recollect doctor.

La Vega, however, is a great favorite with his master. About,a week ago Mrs. Horton became exasperated on accuiint of ,some unendurable ; offence committed by La Vega, and privately, bari:ained' with an old collectF of soap fit, named Abe Walker, who, for a 'dollar fee. agreed to take the dog off and •• render up into tallow, or otherwise relieve Mrs. Her ton from the annoyance of his presence. MrJlorton; on coming lune to dinner, inquired fir La Vega, and was chagrined with the information that his troublesome pet had absconded.' for some days the aty senee of La Vegivgave 'occasion for =dr re joicing in the household, and even the grie, of Mr. Horton for his loss was,madethesub T jest of many a sly. joke in his domestie;- tablishin'ent. Mrs. Horton congratulated herself execs ssively on that lucky thought of hers, which cleared the house of the odious brute.;..aud though e lady who thinks a good 'deal of:a dollar, she did not grudge the money r since it gained her object so effectually.. In -the mean tiine;La Vega was detained . a close prisoner in the cellar - of the . soap,factciry, amusing himself by snapping at. the rats which coursed about the premises. Ou Tuesday uinrning Mr. H.orton.appear ed at the breakfast table with a beaming countenance. " Well, my deergoodnews said he to Mrs. Horton. " What is it?" ask ed the lady with some secret misgiving. " I have La Vega hail again ! Advertised fur him, offered a reward for his recovery, and this morning he was brought, home. by Abe - Walker. "Dear me :" ejaculated Mrs.llorton, what. did you...have to pay for him IP Oily:eleven dollars," replied Horton, " one for the- adver tisement, and ten to old Abe fur, bringing him back."
