"Ah e exclaimed Mr. Flint, :Is he put down the ;paper, and looked me gravely in the face. " 1 : re member now: tbejr names are in the list of bank rupts. A failure in the gambling corn trade, too. I hope they have not been speculating with the young woman s money." .. .. . The words were scarcely out of his mouth when Mr. Linden was announced, and presently in walk ed that gentleman in a state of considerable excite ment. c - "I told you," be began, "sometime ago, about Crowther & Jenkins being the persons in whose names Catharine Arnold's moupy stood in funds r" Yes," replied Flint, "raid t see by the Gazette they are bankrupts, and by your face, they have speculated with your intended daughter-in-law's money, „and Inst tt r •• Positively so l" rejoined Mr. Linden, with great heat. " Drew it out many months ago. But they have exceedingly wealthy c unection; at least Crow ther has—who will,. aappoxe, arrange Miss-Ar-, nold's claim, rather . than their relative should be: arraigned for felonY." • " Felony ! You are-mistaken, my good sir.— There is no felony—no legal felony, I mean—in the matter, Miss Arnold •can only prove against the estate like any other creditor." 'The devil she can't! Tom, then, must look out for another wife, for I air credibly informed there VOW, be aaitillin. , :to 4.he - pound."' • And so it turned out. The great corn firm had been insolvent for years; and after speculating des perately and to a frightful extent, with a view to recover themselves, had failed to an etionnos a• mount—their assets, comparatively speaking, pro ving to be Nu.. The ruin spread around, chiefly on account of the vast qtlantity of accommodation paper they bad aflOst,t,was terrible; but upon no one did the blow fall with greater severity than on- youn g Linden and his promised wife. His father ordered him to instan 4 ly break off all acquaintance with Miss Ar nold ; and on the son, who was deeply attached to her. peremptorily refusing to do so, Lmdec senior threatened to turn Mtn out of dOn s ii, and ultimate ly disinherit him. Angry, indignant, and in iove, Thomas linden did a very • foolish thing : he per suaded Catharine Arnold to consent to a private marriage,arguing that. if the indissoluble knot were once fairly tied„ his father would, as a matter of course—he being an only child—bpcome reconciled M what he could no longer hope to prevent or rem edy. The imprudent young man deceived _both him self and her who trusted in his pleasing plausibili ties. Ten minutes after lie had disclosed his mar riiige to his father, he was turned, almost penniless, out of doors ; and the exasperated and inflexible old.man refused-to listen .to any representatioa in his fayor, by ulninisoevie — prOfTered ; and finally, even to permit the mention of his name in bis hear ing. "It's of no tise," said Mr. Ant, on retumoig for the last time from a mission andertaken to extort, if possible, some provision against actual st:uwation for the.newly wedded couple. " Ile is as cold mid hard as 'adamant, and I think, if possible, even more of a tiger than before. Be will be here pres ently. to give instructions for his will.' His will Surely he will draw that up him self, after his own common-sense business l" He would unquestionably have done so a short time since ; but, some events that have lately ec carred, have considerably shaken his estimate of his own infallibility, and he is, moreover, determined, he says, that there slial) be no, mistake as to effect ually disinherit hisson.. lie has made two or three -heavy losses, mid his mind is altOgether in a very ,cankered,distempere&state : Mr. Linden culled, as he promised to do, and gave us t e written heads of a will which he de sired to eat once formally drawn up. By this instrumen e devised the Hanford estate. and all other pioperty, real or, personal, of which he might be .p . ossessed. , to certain charitable institutions, in, varying proportions. payable as soon after his death as ilie , property could be turned into money. " The jsstatuo of inortinain doewnsit give me much uneasi. ness,"_remarked the vindictive Old man -with a bit ' ter smile. " 1.4ha1l last , come time yet.

The brdther, Charles Parsley, had urged upon the executors to anticipate the time directed by the will for the sale of the property, and'have pqrsuaded the niece to give a written authorization for the immediate sale, the executors, chiefly, Saw bridge supposed, prompted by their own necessi ties, sold the estate accordingly. - But the neice not being of age when she signed the authority to sell,. her consent was oleo legal value ; and she having since died' intestate, Edwin Majoribanks, her cousin, and undoubted heir at law--for the Rroperty could not have passed from- her even by marriage—now claimed the estate. Charles Parsley, the brother, w as dead! ." and," continued Mr. Sawbridge, " the worst of it is, Linden will never get a farthing of his purchase money from the venders for they are bankrupt, nor from ..Niliser, who has made perma nent arrangements fur continuing abroad, out of harm's reach. It is just as I tell you," he added, as we shook hands at parting ; " but you will of course see the will, and satisfy yourself. Good by." Here was n precut result of amateur common sense lawyership I Linden could only have exam ined the abstract of title furnished him by Palliser's attorney, and hot the right of Dursley's executor's to sell; or had not been aware tha't the neice .could not. during boa minority, sub-cribs nn effective le gal consent. , r I found Mr. Flint at the office. and quickly im parted the astounding news. .14e was as much ta ken aback as myself.

What did you say, was the neice's name 1" I don't remember that Sawbridge told me, he was in such a buiry ; but suppose yqu goat once and look over the the will !" True; I n 7 lll do so," and away he went. "This-is a very t-inguler nffuir, Sharp," said, Mr, Flint on his return from Dxtor's Commens, at the same tituC eomposedly seamy , himself, hooking his thumbs into thearrn-holes of his ivaistcoat, crossing his legs, and tilting his chair back on its hind (qv. r" A very singular affair.

Dreams an 111 Dreaming. . . ~.. Dreams were once believed to have a supeniat ural origin; and interpreters of unions weft...cent won at that period. Among .many savagts tribes this idea of &awing stilt prevails. Weak minded people: in civiliied society, not unfrequently - -hOld he same opinion. We need not say, hatiever;thirt all such notions of visions are superstitious and, ri diculuus.. The true origin of dreaming is to be sought pia cipally in .physic -al causes. . healthy persurils, little apt to dreain. Vigoroas though nure'xees-' sive exercise during .the day, a good digestion ; and a mind free from care are the surest preventives of dreams. But wiien the intellect lias been over-' worked, when the stomach is flied to repletion, and. When the veiiad are coaltinolby fiver; uatii-Varani haunt the sleep, often of the mast horrible eh:track.: ter. Lying on the back induces dreams -with.tuany ! persons. Hot suppers, just before retiring, are air most sure to cause dreams. Auger, in the evening, is another certain provocative orvisiun, mostly - of troubled character. It is rare, however, that a son dream when they-wish tu, strange to say, the priori to dream seems ;to prevent drearuiug gest:cr._ Purely physical causes appear to exercise the greatest influence in producing dreams. Dr:James Greg fry records; that having retired to bed with a jug of but water at "; feet he dreamed immedi ately of walking on hot ciunera in the crater lift t-_ na. We have ourselves deemed of suffenng froni intense cold, in the , Artic regions,Jand. %raking, op discovered that we had thrown off the bed clothes in our sleep ; and a similar incident is told by Dr. "Gregory also.. Dr. Reid relates of himself that the dressing of a blister on his head becoming distur- - bed, that he had fallen into the hands of trie - lierth American . lndians, and undergone the process of scalping. In alt these cases the vision wereevi-, idenaly suggested by sensations, receieved by ; the body, and einive,yed, through thmitedium of ..the nerves, to the timid., 'Mere. are some persims who may he made to dreani l. , by whispering in ear. A curious case °flies kind is told by Dr:All• ercrothhie, of an officer ; who was wade iu this wits to dream that he, had a glut' ret enditig.iu &duel; mid on another occasion, chat he had fallen over board front a ;hip at sea and was pursued by a shark. Sometimes, from the same causes, nuMberi of persons -will have , the same' Thus..st whore reo b nuent of soldiers, sleeping in a monastery wialt became titled with delterious gas streamed that a black dog had„ jumped on their brcasts, and simultaneously arose in alarm. The events of. the day frequently exercise an'in thence over dreams. D;.Battie relates thatTanee, after riding thirty miles in a - high wind; he pasied, a night., full of terrible visions. Franklin often dreamed, at night, of siffair.s in which he had been engages duting the day, and occasionally obtaiutid valuable hints in, this , wanner. We ourselves are acquainted with a noveliist whstAreamed, in a sin gle night; the - outline ofnWifololiction. ; -Dr. Jolio•:. um once had a .contest of Witi . in - a• viSion,Witb a person, and records' "that be was Much mortified because his oppttnent hrid the better hird. tole ritie dreamed an entire poem , in Mr/hour's sleep in an alcove, but, cuafd only remember .a 'poithat of it, on awaking.; which he wrote down - and.
