BAY% When deeply in love with 31413 Emily I. -3.1 e, I vowed if the luly wotild only be mine ", I would alit sys endeavor to plesso her-- Sho blushed ht.r ct:nsetrt; though the blathering ME liho said never a word extept "Yon'ro an aas— An Isa—an ASP—lilt:Kos teaser l" But when we were married, I found to my ruth The stammering lady 110 spoken the truth ; For otjen, in ob• :onm anclgoon, • Shed say—it I ventured to give, her a log, In the way of reprxif-," You're a dog —dog— dog— - A dog— a dog—matio curmudgeon." And once when I said, " We can hardly afford This es.travagent, stylo with our moderate board." • And hinted we ought to be wiser, She looked, I assure you, exceedingly blue, And ire t rally •ried, "You're aJew--Jew—Jow— A very Jew :Aided' adviser," Again when t alpened that wishing to shirk Some rather nu easarit and ardnousiwork, I begged her n oto a neighbor; , She wanted to kno • why I made such , a loss, And satlic"y said,' 6 ou're a Cuss —CW:3 CUB. , -- You were always e.—cuss—toned to labor:" Ont of" temper at last with the insolent dame, nd feeling the woman was greatly to . blame To scold me instead of caressing, I mimicked her speech, like a churl as I am, And angniY said, " You'r3.a A dam—age instead of a bltLiing !", Mistelltmeous. 'For the Entlntmu) A TRIP ACROSS THE WATER. No. XXXVI - -"Evcn as now, There have been in the hart, strange ricl,•s, And dreadful certainties td doom." On our way-one morning towards the Tower of London, we visited the Royal Exchange; and took occasion to enter, among ; :other portions of this extensive editice, that part occu pied-by what is called LLOYD ~, nn ii l istitution recognized by inercan 7 tile men as connected with under writing or insurance on vessels and their cargoes. Before° the present system of incor porated . Insurance Companies, the business of insurance was confined to private underwriters. Their place of . rendezvous in the city of London was originally at a cofliee-house kept by a person of the -name 'of Lloyd. This. was more than a century ago, but the association still preserves the name it thus derived. There are now between two and three hundred un derwriters, together with 1;400 mem bers and substitutes, belonging to Lloyd's. The yearly subscriptions to the Merchant's Room amount to 1.10,000; and .L 2.00 each per year is received from° the principal London Assurance Company, as well as con: siderable sums from public journals, fur early copies of shipping geuce, and from other sources. Thilletins of important items, and the latest files of printed news from all portions of the globe are open to view : great numbers of clerks are here busy, and messengers are con stantly entering or passing out, while parties interested are eagerly discuss , Mg, iu various . groups, the rate* of insurance, on some ship or cargo, perchance of great value,,from -which DO report is received in due time. The rates rise of course with the lapse of days or weeks without the expected intelligence : sometimes as high as ,one-half the value, or even more, is paid for indemnity, while the nest hour perhaps may bring tidings of a safe arrival or a total loss. Hundreds of- agents are em ployed, in as many distant ports, to transmit intelligence of all naval casualties in their vicinity, with the least possible delay; and prompt de livery to thie Inessengers for Lloyd's is secured Ly special post-oflice ar- rauf , ement. • Tie most reliable infurnation - ant the earliest news, are; looked for s b Govern went, chartered incorpOra tions, merchants andiuthers interest ed in shipping, from "Lloyd';; List,' published and issued daily by the as sociation. The interests here represented must be inonense; it is said - that, by far i:he greater portion of British apd goods, whether of el • i»rt ur, import, is insured at Lloyd's, as . a viay large amount from other eunitnei cod countries. 411inling to this institution, of such i . suportat,(to to tireat Britain and the world, an able writer has vtuarkvil as follows human body, with . its insny veins and nerves, it feels the least distiirbanee in the distant cor tiers of the earth. Nut a storm can rage iu the wide oceans of the South, without a record at Lloyd's. No hurricane eau rush through Eastern seas, without a chronicle at Lloyd's. Every gale; every squall, let it be where it may, is felt at Lloyd's.

It occasions some degree of surprise to hear . intelligent natives of the city.acknowledge that they have never . been within its wally. - The locality of the Tower is about midway between the London Docks and Londoa Bridge, in the extreme eastern portion the city, and immediately upon the northern shore of the Thames, from Which access is had by the "Traitor's Gate," through which so many persons of high rank have been conducted to its dungeons; at szautpuma instnscraTtos MON es! warm. often undergoing !a ig imprisonment, ors speedy fate upon block or scaf fold.

I was at a loss to determine how the title Rely' E:aters, which they commonly bear, -can serve properly to distinguish them from other' Englishmen. • - The grounds 7 occupy an area of about thirteen ''acres : the :enclosing moat and ramparts being about half a mile in circumference - . Instead of a single tower, the Inner Ward alone encloses twelve—each with its grim memories and characteristic name. The main central building is about 100 feet square; and nearly the same in height are the turret:a-at its angles. This is known as the White Tower. and was erected by William of Nor mandy, about the year 1080, as a stronghold for his own defense, and to awe the rebellious Saxon element . of a conqUered city and covntry. For centuries after, his successors upon the throne continued to fortify with new walls and towers, the citadel al , ready deemed impregnable, iVith its inner walls seven ? and - its outer walls fifteen feet, in thickness. It is deem ed somewhat remarkable, that no vestige of well or fireplace, should be disdoverable within the building. A large apartinent on the upper, or third floor, with its massive timber roof and supporters of peculiarly an tique appearance, was used as a council room-in the days when the English kings held their Court at the T(;Wer, and it was from hence that the Protector, Richard of Glos ter, ordered Lord Hastings to immc diate execution. These upper rooms are now .used as depositories of brightly burnished small arms, ar ranged in great nrunliers,arid with wonderful artistic (-fleet, in various devices upon walls and ceiling.

The Horse Armor' , presents a re markable collection of ancient antis and the armor Of different periods_ In - the days of the Norman Conquest, the defensive armor worn upon - the' body, seems to have been . merely of a kind of hard leather, cut into small pleas overlapping - -,each other like scales, - or of flat rings of steel similar ly arranged. The flexible chain sr mor was introduced - by the Crusa-', ders from Asia, where it is still in use,: and complete armor of plate was not worn until the reign of Henry V. The style of armor in the days of Ed= ward, became so costly and splendid, that is -" said knights who might otherwise have been taken prisoners, were often slain for the sake of their spoils.' In the 16th -cen tury, its weight became so loppressive that the stout warrior often fainted under it, and once unhorsed, • could not rise from the , ground., -Little Was _it dreamed 'of in those days, that metallic armor of defense would in time be transferred from men of war •tipon the tented field, to men of Wet. upon the ocean. A very striking display is here pre sented in a number, of-equestrian fig ures, horse and rider of life size,. representing -celebrated kings . and knights of thel olden time, equipped throughout in the armor of their va rious periods: in some cases the same they are said actually to have .winz. Here are several of•the, Edwards, The Richards,. and the Henrys; also, the well known Earls of Elizabeth's reign, Leicester and Eesex. In the eolloction.otancient cannon outside,• there is one of the kind first . .used by the English; probably at the battle of Cressy. They were then made of bars of wrought iron welded . '-together, and enclosed by iron hoops. The balls used were of stone', and an order is on record, issued by Henry V., in 1 ils, for the making of '7,000 of these at the (rotaries of Kent..
