A quick, light step approached.

And yet 1 struck him lherc;and fell his hot btood'gush forth upon my hand. And sco!” she continued, shuddering, “ there it is," and holding up her hand as she spoke, the crimson drops that stained it, attested tho truth of some fear ful deed being connected with her mysterious self, accusation.” “ Helena, dearest love,” sold the Boyard, In sooth, ing accents. “Something has tonified you; but you arossfo now—l am hero to protect you. .

A thousand other such questions might bo propounded, which would be at least as difficult of solution us those. May we not, therefore, venture to repeal the lan guage of him who, more than any other man, was mo father of our present Constitution, nnd say— “ Every man who loves peace—every man ,who loves his country—every man who loves liberty ought to have it ever before his eyes, that ho may cherish in his heart a duo attachment to the Union of America and be able lo set a due value on the means of preserving lu” But, alas! it is not* withstanding true, (with painful'reluctance do I confess It,) (hat there are men to be found both in the-North and in* the South; of great intellectual power, of the largest attainments, of extended influence, and of extraordinary energy of character, who have become satisfied and are day and night assiduously endeavoring to satisfy others, that the Union established by otir fathers has become a Worthless thing—yea, worse than worthless—a thing positively vicious in itself— and containing the seeds of multiplied mischief and degradation hereafter lo be realized, unless Ihe work of seoision, which lias been deliberately projected, shall be presently accomplished.

The exhibition was truly unfortunate—the spectators laughed; ahd looked at tho Englishman, expecting him to laugh too. On tho contrary, lie nut only Retained .his' composure, but promptly ad* vanccd to .where the hat hkd rolled, and taking it up, presented jl with un uir of unaffected'kindness to its confuted, wncr. The officer received it with a blush of,.surprise tind gratitude, and hurrlcd la. rejoin fils, ThcrB J iva8 w a > murmuf of applause, und the stranger passed on. Though the scone ufa mo. ment, and without a word spoken, it touched every heart—not with admiration for a mere display uf , politeness, but with a wanner feeling far n proof of , that (rue charily ‘which never failolli.’ Qn tho re. i gime'nt being dismissed, the captain, who was a young man pf consideration, in glowing terms rcla* (od the circumstance to his colonel. I*llo colonel immediately mentioned it to Ihogoncrsl in command; and whence Englishman returned to his hotel, ha found on aid do camp wailing to request h!s company to dinner at bead quarters. ■ lo tho evening ho was carried to court—at that time, s« Lord Chesterfield tells tit, (he most brilliant court in Europe—and was received with particular attention. Of Course, du. ring his stay at Turin, ho was invited everywhere; and on hii departure he wos loaded with letters of introduction to the different stales of Italy. Thus a private gentleman of moderate moans, by a graceful impulse of Christian feeling, was enabled to travel through a foreign country, then of (he highest Inte* rest for its society, as well as for tho charms it still possesses, with more rca! distinction tod advantage than can over bo derived from (he mere clrcumslnn. cos of birth and fortune, even tho most splendid. 11 A Slight Mistake.— When Sir. Isaac Newton changed h!i residence, and went to livo-ln Leicester Place, his next door neighbor, a widow lady, was much puxzlod by tho little she observed of the habits of the philosopher. One of tho Follows of (ho Royal Society called upon her one duy, when, among other domestic news, she mentioned that some one had come lo reside in the .adjoining house, who she full certs in, was a poor mad gonlU man, “because," alio continued, “ho diverts himself In the oddest way imaginable. Every morning, when (he eun shines •o brightly that wo are obliged lo draw (he window blinds, he Ukes-hisseal before a tub of soapsuds, and occupies himself fur hours blowing soap bubbles through a common clay pipe, which ho intently watches floating about until (hey burst. “He is doubtless," she added, “now at his favorite amuse* moni, fur it is ft fine day; do come and luck at him." Tho gciitlcman smiled, and (hoy wont up stairs, when, after looking through tho staircase window Into the adjoining courtyard, ho turned and said t “My dear madam, tho person whom you suppose to bo a poor lunatic, is no other than the great Sir Isaac Newton, studying the refraction of light upon thin plates, a phenomenon which Is beautifully ox* hibllud upon tho aarfaco of a common eoap bubble." Tallcyhakd.— lt Is said that one of (lie Bona* parte family—Jerome, as well as we oan remem ber—was one night playing whist at tho same ta ble with Talleyrand, and having dropped a crown piece upon the floor, he interrupted the game, and deranged tho whole party to sqaroh for his money. Not a.Utile provoked by meanness, which excited the ridicule of many persons about, Tal leyrand deliberately folded up a bank note which lay on tho table before him,-end lighting it et the candle begged with much courtesy that lie might be permitted to assist In the seoron. Tif* Two Ssxss.—When a rakish youth goes astroy, friends gather Around him in order to re store him to the path of virtue. . Gentleness and kindness are lavished upon him to win him back to innocence and peace. No one would s suspool that he ht*d ever sinned. But when a poor oonfi ding girl is betrayed, she receives the brand of soci ety, and Is henceforth driven from the way of vir tue. The betrayer is honored, respected and cs« teemed; but his ruined heart-broken victim knows there is no peace for her this side of the cold and solitary grave.

Those sro earthly moralities; they are unknown of Heaven* There is deep wrong In them, ood fearful ore the consequences. < An article in Blackwood's Magazine, on Mod ern State Trials, contains the following anecdote: M. Fletcher, a Judge in Ireland, In tho year'lSlS, thus addressed an Irish Jury in a trial for murder, occasioned in a duel—“ Gentleman, it is my busi ness to lay down the law to you, and' 1 shall do so* Whore two people go out to fight a duel, and one of them falls, the law says it is murder- And I tell you by law, It Is murder; but, at the same time, a fairer duel 1 never heard of In the whole course of my life I" The prisoner, wot, of coarse, Immediately acquitted.
