A ROMANCE OF LIMA. Many yean ago a youn Engluliuan, a medical student named Astley, wont to Lima. The love of adrenture was btrong upon bitu. and all he mt with in his oivn country wai too taiuo to satisfy it. l'roud of the profession for which he was study ing, and trusting toil for aubaisteneo, strong and healthy in body and i" mind, he left Cnjtlund with a hold heart, and Ibis vras ii. he life h l?d, aud what camo of At tini when the diflicully of prepar ing subjects for anatomical study was very greal, aud when to procure them honest ly was impossible, as the prejudice ng'un'd dissection was .0 strong that tio one 'A'tis willing to submit the brtdy of any one connected wrilh him to examination, it is well known that thero woro men who niado it their business to obtain at no nuall risk, bodies, generally those of the newly buried, which lltcy sold' to surgeuns, filed ieul stuueuts, or indeed to any one it ho stood in need of the hwtly corumod- ity.

Uut hu sleep was Lroken.and his dreams were foverish, and fn some way all conneo ted with what lay in the next room. Now it seemed to him that it glitled in through the locked door, with hands folded on its breast, and eyes still fast closed, and stood by his bedside : and now tho dream was that he had opened a vain iu one of Iho delicate arms, and that warm, living blood poured fast from it ; and finally, he woke with s cry of horror from a ghastly dream that he found (hat he had entered the room and found that some unknown hand had autkipated him iu the work of dissection. The horror was upon him after he woke to know it was a dream, and opening the door ho looked in upon tho table. No change there of any kind. Tho long sheeted figure lay iu the half light rf dawn as he had seen it io tho lampdight, very straighfand still. " w, not until nearl noon that Ast iey raised the covering to looit once agiuu upon the beauliful dead face, and when he did ao he saw with wondur, not unmix ed with terror, that a change hud come upon U. Ho could not tell wU at it might bd ; tho deathly pail )r was there still, bul in toiue way tin faea was not tho same. Ho looked into it long and curiously. Surely a chaiigo had passed over theoyc, for though they were still fast shut, they looked now as though closed in sleep ra ther than in doath. lie liflod an eye-lid tenderly with his' finger; there was not doath iu Iho eye; unconsciousness, (raaje, there might be, but not doath. He wa3 certain now that she was not dead, though ho could fiud uo life in her nulsoa. For hours ho strove to call back the spirit, until at length color returned, tnd warmth, and life, and she lay beforo him Bleeping tranquilly like a child. He had placed htr on hi bed, and n;w sat by her sido with a throbbing heart to fttiail her awakening. jhe slept ao long, and in tho waning light looked so palo that he feared sh wns agtin about to fall into th.i strange deathly trance from which he had with so much ddfieully recovered her In his terror of that he cried out for her to I aivakc, and the sound of his cry her with a start. awoke Ho had prepared a speech lhat was to calm and re-assuro her when sho awoke, I i. in....! i , i;ri i.nr-nir tr;incfli-'awiftlv clothed and lodged ; but sho. no more needed calming and reassuring than an St too T0U2 to know its mother from llliant iuu i 8y, ' L,a that was tdmost 1 Sho looked rounu ifnniine and her eye resting upon Ast, , ' . .... : .vi h.d .ml asked him ! uLimPc for food.
